About this work

iss074e0573327 (May 7, 2026) --- NASA astronaut and Expedition 74 flight engineer Jessica Meir works inside the International Space Station's Harmony module conducting a biotechnology investigation to observe how tiny, engineered materials that mimic DNA behave in microgravity. Meir pointed a light-measuring device, called a spectrophotometer, at the DNA-like sample materials housed in small transparent containers to analyze their ability to form stable structures.
