Bowen works on Plant Habitat-03 Science Carrier
iss069e030677 (July 10, 2023) --- NASA astronaut and Expedition 69 Flight Engineer Stephen Bowen works on the Plant Habitat-03B Science Carrier, a space botany research device, in the International Space Station's Harmony module. The Plant Habitat-03 investigation explores how space-caused DNA changes are transferred from one generation of plants to the next and then continue to accumulate or stabilize. This could provide insight into how to grow repeated generations of crops to provide food and other services on future space missions.
