OVOSPACE
jsc2022e072967 (4/12/2021) --- Image of bovine ovary Granulosa cells. Coordinated by the Italian Space Agency (ASI), OVOSPACE investigates how microgravity influences the maturation and development ovarian cells in mammals, including Granulosa cells. This experiment could help scientists understand how long-term settlement on the Moon or Mars might affect the fertility of astronauts living in reduced gravity for long durations.
