After the sperm stays on board for its cycle it's brought back to Earth where it will then be looked over my different highly-trained space scientists who will use it to fertilize mouse eggs that have never left Earth. As weird as this may sound, it's a necessary test in order to ...

Participants provided feedback while simulating microgravity operations, including cargo transfer, trash transfer, stowage, and worksite assessments. — On Earth Day 2025, Blue highlights the benefits of space for the home planet: Space exploration confirms it: Earth is the best planet. Our planet’...
All trash bags are stowed in the lower deck to be returned to Earth for disposal. Solid waste from the toilet is compacted, dried and stored in bags where it is returned to Earth for disposal (burning). Liquid waste from the toilet goes to the wastewater tank where it is dumped ...
