Congratulations to two of our teams for winning Silver Group Achievement Awards at NASA’s 2023 Agency Honor Awards. BioExperiment-01 served as a pathfinder mission for biological research on Artemis I. The Multi-Agency Tissue Chips team pioneered a multiagency team to support high priority public service research.

Flame on Earth vs flame in microgravity. 🕯️ On Earth, gravity-driven buoyant convection causes a candle flame to be teardrop-shaped & carries soot to the tip, which makes it yellow. In microgravity, where convective flows are absent, the flame is spherical, soot-free & blue.
