Twin Orbit conducts pioneering research with identical twins, develops space habitats and bioregenerative agriculture, and develops smart consumer technology.

An unfunded Space Act Agreement to conduct a study of a commercial mission to boost Hubble’s orbit and extend its operations was signed by @NASA and @SpaceX – a mission concept that may be applied to other spacecraft and commercial vehicles: https://t.co/b0Sv64okuI

Did you know that the likelihood of identical twins is about three to four occurrences in every one-thousand births?!

Let’s start the journey to advance humanity on Earth and beyond!

@TalkSpaceMed @mason_lab Mission duration is 500+ days onboard Axiom Station.

[Brent West @twinorbit]

@TalkSpaceMed @mason_lab Thank you, great to hear you like the white paper. We have been in discussions with Axiom Space and they are fully supportive of the Twin Orbit vision. The financing for this commercial mission is the biggest hurdle. Soon we will commence a fundraising campaign.

@RyanTScott Thank you!

A new Identical Twins Study in Space. More details soon!

@RyanTScott Hi Ryan, I did submit a condensed white paper for the National Academy of Sciences decadal survey. A larger white paper is available at https://t.co/7Po0SQbCiL

Here's my conversation with @mason_lab, biophysicist at Cornell, studying the effects of space travel on the human body and how humans can survive long-term space travel, colonization of other planets, and one day venturing out beyond our Solar System. https://t.co/V7GxJK8liJ
