Biologist Jessica Meir’s journey of discovery started before she became an astronaut on the International Space Station. Join her as she goes under the Antarctic Ocean to investigate the diving behavior of emperor penguins, studies how bar-headed geese can fly over the Himalayas, and now explores human physiology as a test subject for experiments seeking to learn how the human body responds to the absence of gravity. jsc2019m000830 For more science in space, visit www.nasa.gov/stemonstation
