Expedition 75 spent Tuesday advancing human health on and off the Earth with 3D bioprinting, cancer research, and exercise studies. Meanwhile, spacewalk preparations continue aboard the International Space Station to augment its power generation system.
Spacewalk preparations kicked off the week aboard the International Space Station as two astronauts get ready to install a roll-out solar array at the end of October. Biomedical research, including portable biological sampling in microgravity and 3D cell printing, topped the science schedule for the Expedition 75 crew.
Five spacecraft are docked at the International Space Station following the arrival of a cargo-packed SpaceX Dragon on Thursday. The Expedition 75 crew members have begun unloading Dragon and are activating new science experiments to benefit life on and off the Earth.
