The next resupply mission is international space station (ISS) is ISS National Laboratory® includes in-space production application projects, technology demonstrations, life science experiments, and student-led research. These surveys space x 30th commercial supply service (CRS) Mission, Funders NASAaims to improve life on Earth through space-based research and foster a sustainable economy in LEO.
Below is a sample of those payloads. This discovery could lead to technological advances for future spaceflight and the development of new treatments that can be used both on Earth and in space.
- Red Wire Co., Ltd. We partner with pharmaceutical companies Eli Lilly & Company and butler university Two surveys powered by Redwire Space Pharmaceutical Research Institute (pill box), a platform for crystallizing organic molecules under microgravity. The results of this study could lead to improved therapies to treat a variety of conditions. This research continues Eli Lilly's space travel efforts, as the company has initiated various investigations into orbiting laboratories over the years to benefit patient care on Earth.
- collaboration between boeing and CSIRO (an Australian government agency responsible for scientific research) tests a person's abilities. multi-resolution scanner Create a 3D map of the space station. To do this, in your project use: astro lobby, an autonomous free-flying robotic system on a station. This scanner technology could be useful in future exploration activities and in remote environments for manufacturing and maintenance operations such as identifying leaks and checking for damage to systems.
- of National Stem Cell Foundation intention continue inspection Mechanisms behind neuroinflammation, a common feature of neurodegenerative diseases.To conduct this study, the research team 3D brain model It is derived from induced pluripotent stem cells from patients with Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and primary progressive multiple sclerosis.
- Airbus US Space & Defense is starting station enhancements bartolomeo platform.called ArgUS, External Machinery Platforms now has the ability to host payloads in LEO. Once installed, ArgUS will host multiple payloads for this mission. Space TV-1an optical video system designed to live stream high-resolution views of Earth and the space station.
- project from University of Connecticut We plan to explore the possibility of producing Janus-based nanomaterials under microgravity. repair cartilage and reduces joint inflammation. Through this project, the researchers aim to advance the concept of in-space manufacturing of these materials, which will help reduce orthopedic injuries and degenerative conditions such as arthritis, since there is currently no way to repair damaged cartilage. It has the potential to significantly improve patient care for joint diseases.
In addition, two investigations during flight on NASA's SpaceX CRS-30 mission Space technology awardwith funding from Boeing and the Center for the Advancement of Science in Space™ (CASIS™), manager of the ISS National Laboratory. mass challenge Startup accelerator program.
- Investigations from biopharmaceutical companies oculogenex The space station will be used to test new gene therapies to prevent and possibly reverse vision loss caused by age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The findings could help advance the company's treatments, potentially treating AMD-related symptoms for millions of Americans.
- Biomedical startup project encapsulate The aim is to leverage the space station's microgravity environment to validate an automated tumor-on-a-chip system that grows patient-derived cancer cells and tests chemotherapy drugs. The company aims to use highly accurate diagnostics for personalized cancer treatment.
SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket is scheduled to begin these investigations. Thursday, March 21, 2024, 4:55 PM EDTfrom Space Launch Complex 40, Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Florida.
