国際宇宙ステーションさんのインスタグラム写真 - (国際宇宙ステーションInstagram)「Science is performed aboard the space station to reveal new insights and potential therapies that otherwise wouldn’t be possible on Earth due to gravity’s interference. Pic 1) NASA astronaut Michael Hopkins works on hydroponics components for the Plant Water Management study that is exploring ways to sustain plants in microgravity from germination through harvest. Pic 2) NASA astronaut Shannon Walker researches how to manage fluid and gas mixtures inside structures of specific shapes for the Capillary Structures technology demonstration. Results could lead to lightweight, more reliable life support systems for future space missions. Pic 3) NASA astronaut Kate Rubins poses with a pair of AstroBee robotic assistants inside the Japanese Kibo laboratory module. The cube-shaped, toaster-sized robots are being tested for their ability to autonomously navigate and maneuver inside the orbiting lab. #nasa #astronaut #science #botany #physics #robotics #research #laboratory #international #space #station」2月12日 6時32分
