Super excited to be at Kennedy Space Center for a #NASA project ( #wormsInSpace launching next week, but more on that later ) AND to be able to see the launch of #Artemis II! To the moon and stars!! 🚀🌖 🧪

#Artemis is circling the Moon right now. And later this week, our team's experiment launches to the #ISS. Tiny worms. Defined gut microbiomes. Here's why the two are connected. 🧵

@Jerusalem_Post: The study, “Exploiting the unique biology of Caenorhabditis elegans to launch neurodegeneration studies in space," was written by high school pupils, researchers, and the Ramon Foundation and looks at space travel and Huntingdons.

#WormsinSpace update: since launch day, our tiny #Celegans astronauts and their microbes have been living in microgravity. #ISS astronauts have unpacked #CBIOMES (below), and will take their first looks at these host-microbiome studies tomorrow!

Final timepoint for #CBIOMES completed on the #ISS this week! On the video is the live view of Earth below the ISS while our #Celegans move through microfluidic chambers. On orbit operations are done, now our worms wait in stasis for their return ticket.
