Offworld Bioprinting Research On ISS
Expedition 70 Flight Engineer and NASA astronaut Matthew Dominick works inside the BioFabrication Facility using the portable glovebag aboard the International Space Station’s Columbus laboratory module.
He was working on the Redwire Cardiac Bioprinting Investigation that may offer the ability to print food and medicines for future space crews.
Results may also enable the bioprinting of replacement organs and tissues potentially alleviating the shortage of donor organs on Earth.
