Northrop Grumman CRS-24

C. elegans nematode worms launched aboard NASA's Northrop Grumman CRS-24 mission on April 11, 2026, to the International Space Station (ISS) for the Fluorescent Deep Space Petri-Pods project. Funded by the UK Space Agency, these worms will endure microgravity and cosmic radiation for 15 weeks, aiding research on biological adaptation in space environments.
