jsc2024e062107 (9/13/2024) --- One of the ANT1 Radiation Tolerance Experiment with Moss in Orbit on the Space Station (ARTEMOSS) plates is seen. To prepare the plates, tissue of Antarctic moss Ceratodon purpureus (named ANT1 isolate) is blended in water and thirteen (13) spot-inoculums are deposited per Petri plate and grown in optimal conditions for seven (7) days. The ARTEMOSS investigation examines whether and how an Antarctic moss repairs damage caused by cosmic radiation and microgravity. Image courtesy of Agata Zupanska.
