Ames Research Center Democratizes Space Biosciences Research with First Commercial Astronaut Data
Background: To protect astronauts from spaceflight health risks like solar radiation and microgravity, scientists develop countermeasures by studying model organisms exposed to the space environment. For the first time, commercial astronaut data from the Inspiration4 I4 mission has been collected for open-access research in an effort led by Weill Cornell Medicine.
