<h2 class="wp-block-heading">NASA’s SpaceX Crew-10 Looks Back at Science Mission</h2>



<p>NASA’s SpaceX Crew-10 mission with agency astronauts Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers, JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) astronaut Takuya Onishi, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Kirill Peskov is preparing to return to Earth in early August after a long-duration mission aboard the International Space Station. During their stay, McClain, Ayers, and Onishi completed dozens of experiments and technology demonstrations, helping push the boundaries of scientific discovery aboard the orbiting laboratory.</p>



<p>Here’s a look at some scientific milestones accomplished during the Crew-10 mission:</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Orbital effects on plants</h2>


<div class="hds-media hds-module wp-block-image" id=""><div class="margin-left-auto margin-right-auto nasa-block-align-inline"><div class="hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto"><figure class="hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-fit "><a href="https://images-assets.nasa.gov/image/iss073e0076866/iss073e0076866~large.jpg?w=1920&#038;h=1280&#038;fit=clip&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint" rel="noopener"><img alt="Two gold box-shaped canisters, about the size of a large tissue box, have sections slid open, revealing five clear tubes containing small green plants. There are condensation droplets inside the tubes. The canisters are floating in front of the space station’s cupola windows with Earth’s blue, cloud-covered surface filling the background." class="attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048" height="1280" src="https://images-assets.nasa.gov/image/iss073e0076866/iss073e0076866~large.jpg?w=1920&amp;h=1280&amp;fit=clip&amp;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint" width="1920" /></a></figure><figcaption class="hds-caption padding-y-2"><div class="hds-credits">NASA</div></figcaption></div></div></div>


<p>The canisters floating in the cupola of the International Space Station contain wild-type and genetically-modified thale cress plants for the <a href="https://www.nasa.gov/mission/station/research-explorer/investigation/?#id=9237">Rhodium Plant LIFE</a> experiment. The investigation studies how radiation and gravity environments at different orbital altitudes affect plant growth by comparing Crew-10 data with plants flown aboard the Polaris Dawn mission, which flew deeper into space. Studies have shown microgravity affects growth rates, and a better understanding of the mechanisms behind this could improve plant growth techniques in space and on Earth.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Solar spacewalk</h2>

<p>NASA astronaut Anne McClain helps JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) astronaut Takuya Onishi collect a sample of his blood. Analysis of blood samples is one tool NASA uses to continuously monitor crew health, including cardiovascular and immune system functions, bone and muscle mass changes, nutritional and metabolic status, and mental well-being. Crew members aboard the International Space Station also participate in various ongoing studies to better understand how different body systems adapt to weightlessness.</p>

<p>This animated, color-coded <a href="https://science.nasa.gov/image-article/nasas-codex-captures-unique-views-of-suns-outer-atmosphere/" rel="noopener">heat map</a> shows temperature changes in the Sun’s outer atmosphere, or corona, over several days, with red indicating hotter regions and purple showing cooler ones. Scientists can observe these changes thanks to the International Space Station’s <a href="https://www.nasa.gov/mission/station/research-explorer/investigation/?#id=8225">CODEX</a>, which collected data during the Crew-10 mission. The instrument uses a coronagraph to block out sunlight and reveal details in the Sun’s corona. Data from this investigation could help scientists understand the energy source of the solar wind, a flow of charged particles from the Sun that constantly bombards Earth.</p>

<p>Spaceflight can cause changes to eye structure and vision, so crew members monitor eye health throughout their missions. Astronaut Takuya Onishi of JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency), assisted by NASA astronaut Nichole Ayers, conducts an eye exam aboard the International Space Station using optical coherence tomography. This technology uses reflected light to produce 3D images of the retina, nerve fibers, and other eye structures and layers.</p>
