About this work

jsc2024e038399 (6/5/2024) --- Glycine crystals grown with Redwire's PIL-BOX aboard the International Space Station. This image was taken after the crystals returned to Earth in April 2024. Glycine is an amino acid which serves many functions in the human body such as a neurotransmitter, a component in collagen, and a building block for other important molecules.
