Recognition of Rodent Research Hardware System on ISS.

         
                                             
Operated by the Novartis Institute of Biomedical Research, and the results of the first ISS National Lab Rodent Research Mission (RR-1), provided a quick model of disease to study the mechanism behind the disease and testing of scientists in research. And new treatments.

RR-1 mission aims to validate Rodent Research hardware system on ISS. And researchers from Novartis Institute of Biomedical Research - Research branch of Novartis, America's premier pharmaceutical company, has published the findings from the first research on rodent research on International Space Station (ISS).  This investigation, Rodent Research (RR-1), has both services to recognize the Rodent Research hardware system on ISS, and to detect the molecular basis of skeletal muscle atrophy in microbiology. 

Scientists have found the human for more than 100 years  In health studies, rodents have used rodents as model organisms. In the 1950s, scientists studied the effects of Spaceflight on human health.  Researchers from Novartis used the two groups of rats to assess the muscle changes in the hind limb muscles of the rats coming in contact with microbiology: muscle finger finger 1 (  MURF-1) A group of genes deficient mice- It is believed that it plays a role in triggering muscles to ruin- and  A group of wild-type mice with the general expression of the MuRF-1 gene. 

While researching the results of two groups, the research team examined the changes in the size of the muscles and muscle fibers as well as the changes in the protein and gene expression. Space-based rodent research made a significant turning point in 2014 with the introduction of the Rodent Research Hardware System on ISS, which opened the door for long-term rodent studies in space to advance research that would benefit human health back to Earth. 

After the successful RR-1 mission, Novartis focused on the muscle trophy in the ISS National Lab  Additional rodent research investigation. In an investigation launched in December 2017, Novartis partnered with the Houston Methodist Research Institute and Nanomedical Systems, a transplant drug for a muscle waster drug using a rodent model with microbiology-induced muscle trophy. To test delivery system, done.  Such drug delivery systems avoid the need for daily injection and can turn into a commercial product in the future.

NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope Reveals New Details of the Orion Nebula’s Star Formation.

  This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image captures the Orion Nebula (Messier 42, M42), the nearest star-forming region to Earth, located about 1,500 light-years away. A captivating new image captured by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope offers an extraordinary look into the Orion Nebula, the nearest massive star-forming region to Earth. Located just 1,500 light-years away, this nebula is visible to the naked eye below the three stars forming Orion's "belt." The region is home to hundreds of newborn stars, including two protostars featured in the image: HOPS 150 and HOPS 153. Named after the Herschel Orion Protostar Survey, conducted with ESA’s Herschel Space Observatory, the protostars HOPS 150 and HOPS 153 provide key insights into the early stages of star formation. HOPS 150, visible in the upper-right corner of the image, is a binary star system, with two young stars orbiting one another. These protostars are surrounded by small dusty disks, where material from th...

New Method Detects Small Asteroids in Main Belt, Offering Insight for Planetary Defense.

  An international team of physicists, led by MIT researchers, has developed a groundbreaking method to detect small asteroids, as small as 10 meters in diameter, within the main asteroid belt. These space rocks, ranging from the size of a bus to several stadiums wide, were previously undetectable using traditional methods. The team's discovery, detailed in a paper published in Nature, could significantly improve tracking of potential asteroid impactors, aiding planetary defense efforts. The main asteroid belt, located between Mars and Jupiter, is home to millions of asteroids, but until now, scientists could only detect objects roughly a kilometer in diameter. The new detection technique, which utilizes the "shift and stack" method, is able to identify much smaller asteroids, even those far from Earth, enabling more precise orbital tracking. This breakthrough is crucial for planetary defense, allowing scientists to spot near-Earth objects that may pose a threat in the fu...

XSPECT Payload Successfully Validates Performance through Cas A Observation.

  The XSPECT instrument captures a detailed spectrum of the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A (Cas A), encompassing both the Galactic Cosmic Ray (GCR) background and the Cosmic X-ray Background (CXB). The flux observed above 8 keV predominantly results from the combined contributions of CXB and GCR. The presented spectrum, depicted in the figure, is derived from a cumulative integration time of 20 ksec, collected across multiple orbits, providing valuable insights into the X-ray emissions associated with Cas A. XPoSat, India's inaugural X-ray polarimetric mission, has achieved a significant as the XSPECT instrument captures its initial observations from the Cassiopeia A (Cas A) supernova remnant. Launched on January 1, 2024, XPoSat is equipped with two co-aligned instruments, namely the POLarimeter Instrument in X-rays (POLIX) and X-ray SPECtroscopy and Timing (XSPECT). This mission is designed to unravel the mysteries of cosmic X-ray sources. While POLIX focuses on examining X-ray po...
