🌌 BREAKING: Science reaches new heights as we explore menstruation in space for the first time! 🚀 This groundbreaking study could unlock secrets about human biology beyond Earth. With 28,663 objects orbiting now, the vast expanse holds endless mysteries. Dive deeper into our celestial endeavors: https://orbitalradar.com/deep-space 🌠
Next launch: Falcon 9 Block 5 | Starlink Group 17-28 lifts off in ~29h!
🐭🚀Mice from #OuterSpace: New preprint by Kiffer et al. applies #SLEAP pose tracking and #DeepEthogram behavioral segmentation to archival mouse videos from #NASA’s Rodent Research-1 mission aboard the #ISS 🛰️
Turns out: In #microgravity, mice reorganize behavior fast. They cluster for rest, launch themselves across the cage, and develop acrobatic looping movements as they adapt to orbital life 💫
Explore how time dilation impacts astronauts’ biological rhythms, aging and cellular processes during space travel, reshaping human physiology in orbit.
