    Retina, cornea, and lens checks and microbial DNA sequencing topped Thursday's research schedule while Expedition 74 also worked on spacesuits. More... go.nasa.gov/3QYV4Pv
    NASA astronaut Jack Hathaway loads bacterial samples into a portable DNA sequencer to read their genetic code inside the International Space Station’s Harmony module. The GEARS biotechnology investigation may help scientists understand how bacteria become resistant to antibiotics in the space environment, which could affect an astronaut’s ability to fight infections.

    NASA astronauts Chris Williams and Jessica Meir checked out their spacesuits, tools, and procedures on Tuesday ahead of a robotic arm repair spacewalk planned for June 30. More... go.nasa.gov/3QCRTg4
    NASA astronauts Jessica Meir and Chris Williams, both Expedition 74 flight engineers, are pictured outside the International Space Station during a spacewalk to complete installation of a modification kit ahead of future solar array installation on the 2A power channel of the orbital outpost. It was William’s first spacewalk, Meir's fourth, and the 278th in support of space station maintenance, upgrades, and assembly.

    Expedition 74 began the week learning how to bioengineer cartilage tissues and manufacture advanced materials while ramping up for a spacewalk. More... go.nasa.gov/4xG5ofE
    NASA astronaut and Expedition 74 flight engineer Jessica Meir works inside the Kibo laboratory module's Life Science Glovebox setting up research hardware for a blood stem cell investigation. Meir would later nourish the stem cells that are growing inside a research incubator to help doctors learn how to manufacture and commercialize space-designed therapies for a variety of blood cancers and immune diseases.
