  1. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: ❄️🛰️ 12 crew members lived 10 months in -80º C isolation at #ConcordiaStation, #Antarctica.

    They wore sensors that tracked how close they got to one another while researchers measured trust, conflict, and team spirit over time. The crew drifted into #language-based subgroups, and more contact didn’t build stronger bonds, instead fueling mistrust and tension.

  3. SEND IN THE BOTS 💎

    Sending robots to the #Moon instead of human beings may be the first genuinely sensible step in the new space race.

    #Robots do not need #oxygen, food, #sleep, toilets, radiation shielding or a return ticket.

    They can build, explore, test equipment and prepare the ground without risking lives or spending billions keeping a fragile #human body alive in a place entirely hostile to it.

    And the experience does not have to belong only to a few #astronauts.

    With AI, robotics and virtual reality, millions of #people will #explore the Moon through the eyes and hands of machines.

    You could stand on the #lunar surface from your own home.

    Look back at the Earth in real time.

    Walk through a crater.

    Help direct an experiment.

    The great benefit of space technology may not be sending more bodies into #space.

    It may be allowing everybody to experience space without leaving Earth.

    Send the bots.

    Bring #humanity along virtually.

    A little while ago, cosmonauts Sergey Kud‑Sverchkov and Sergei Mikaev and astronaut Chris Williams returned to Earth on the Soyuz MS-28 spacecraft, which landed in Kazakhstan. They had reached the International Space Station on November 27, 2025, as part of a normal crew rotation.

  7. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🪐🧬 Ethan Siegel examines whether #Mars’s 38% #gravity is a dealbreaker for human #colonization.

    Drawing on #NASA’s RIDGE framework and decades of zero-gravity astronaut #data, he walks through the physiological hazards bone loss, muscle atrophy, fluid shifts, and space anemia. He concludes that while serious, these obstacles may not be insurmountable for a colony that never plans to return to #Earth.

  8. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🦐🚀 Scientists at the #Okayama University of #Science used a specialized high-speed spinning #machine to simulate weightlessness for kuruma shrimp and sea monkeys.

    The team observed that while the larger #shrimp needed mesh netting to steady themselves, the smaller brine shrimp thrived and grew normally over several days. The #research provides a look at how #future #astronauts might raise #aquaculture setups on the #Moon.

  11. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🐭🧬 #Apollo #astronauts preferred skipping on the #Moon, a gait adults rarely use on #Earth.

    Researchers found that #mice adopt the same skipping gait in simulated lunar #gravity, but lose it when their #proprioception cells are disabled. The gait may offer a useful speed stability trade off on uneven low gravity terrain.

  12. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🐻🚀 Scientists are studying how hibernating #animals survive months without food, hoping to replicate the process in #humans for #space travel.

    Researchers funded by #NASA and #ESA are testing #brain stimulation techniques like #ultrasound to trigger torpor. The work could make #Mars missions feasible and help treat Parkinson’s and stroke on #Earth.

    A few hours ago, the Soyuz MS-29 spacecraft was launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakhstan, and, after a little more than three hours, reached the International Space Station with three new crew members on board. It docked with the Station's Prichal module. The ultra-fast track was used, which halves the journey duration and is used whenever the Station's position makes it possible.

  14. 💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: 🚀🛰️ #Astronauts on months long missions cannot rely on stored #oxygen canisters because they are too heavy and expensive to launch.

    Instead the #ISS uses advanced #engineering to recycle its life support resources. This animated #lesson explains how engineering processes like #electrolysis keep the crew breathing safely in #microgravity.
