About this work
jsc2023e010198 (1/31/2023) --- Seven Tanpopo exposure units with different samples are placed inside the exposure panel. The Tanpopo-5 investigation studies the origin, transportation, and survival of life in space. Radioresistant microbes of Deionococcus radiodurans, sporophytes of the moss Physcomitrium patens, nucleotide precursors, and amino acids are studied in this experiment. Peptides are exposed to the space environment for six months aboard the International Space Station.
