c elegans in space

• by Quia moderator

  Not the first time c. elegans has been on the ISS, and probably not the last! Too bad they don't have the equipment up there to do much more than raise them and freeze them so they can be examined back on Earth. One can dream of having a big bio lab up in low earth orbit...
