Expedition 52
The Expedition 52 crew explored ways to rebuild bone and prevent further bone loss on Earth and in space and studied the cardiovascular changes that take place on orbit. A new roll-out solar array was deployed for a demonstration and an experiment was installed outside the station to observe neutron stars for new astronomical and navigational insights.
