From space to solutions on Earth.
By studying bone loss in space, scientists can accelerate discoveries that would take years on Earth, turning extreme conditions into real-world medical breakthroughs.
At ASRI, we’re committed to research that delivers impact where it matters most.

Astronauts can’t ethically or practically undergo invasive tissue studies — like ovarian or liver biopsies — during spaceflight. 🧬

That’s where rodent models become essential, enabling researchers to safely study how space impacts organs and systems at a deeper level.

What if going to space could affect not just astronauts—but their future children? 🚀

A new study found that spaceflight may cause heritable epigenetic changes that persist across generations.

We are excited to share that the RR-20 paper is now published in PNAS.

This study examines how prolonged spaceflight may affect female reproductive health and future generations, based on NASA’s Rodent Research-20 mission.

The Moon is about 400 times smaller than the Sun, but it is also about 400 times closer to Earth. When they align perfectly, the Moon completely covers the Sun, casting its umbra, or full shadow, onto Earth and creating a total solar eclipse. A beautiful cosmic coincidence! ☀️🌑
