00:00:09,190 --> 00:00:06,960
welcome to space to ground i'm nilla for

00:00:11,669 --> 00:00:09,200
ramji with the return of spacex's

00:00:13,749 --> 00:00:11,679
commercial resupply mission 22 back to

5
00:00:16,269 --> 00:00:13,759
earth the science investigations aboard

6
00:00:18,630 --> 00:00:16,279
will continue to make impacts the

7
00:00:20,390 --> 00:00:18,640
lyophilization 2 experiment is one of

8
00:00:23,029 --> 00:00:20,400
the investigations on the dragon

9
00:00:24,630 --> 00:00:23,039
spacecraft lyophilization or freeze

10
00:00:26,470 --> 00:00:24,640
drying is a common method for

11
00:00:29,189 --> 00:00:26,480
formulating pharmaceuticals with

12
00:00:31,109 --> 00:00:29,199
improved chemical and physical stability

13
00:00:33,110 --> 00:00:31,119
this investigation could result in

14
00:00:35,910 --> 00:00:33,120
improved freeze drying processes for

15
00:00:38,150 --> 00:00:35,920
pharmaceutical and other industries

16
00:00:39,750 --> 00:00:38,160
meanwhile nasa astronaut mark vanderheim

17
00:00:41,190 --> 00:00:39,760
was busy working on space flight

18
00:00:43,350 --> 00:00:41,200
nutrition

19
00:00:45,510 --> 00:00:43,360
the food physiology investigation is

20
00:00:47,510 --> 00:00:45,520
designed to characterize the key effects

21
00:00:50,150 --> 00:00:47,520
of an enhanced space flight diet on

22
00:00:52,310 --> 00:00:50,160
immune function the gut microbiome and

23
00:00:54,470 --> 00:00:52,320
nutritional status indicators

24
00:00:56,069 --> 00:00:54,480
these factors are interlinked but diet

25
00:00:58,790 --> 00:00:56,079
is the only one that can be easily

26
00:01:00,950 --> 00:00:58,800
altered on earth or during space flight

27
00:01:03,270 --> 00:01:00,960
this investigation aims to document the

28
00:01:05,350 --> 00:01:03,280
effects of dietary improvements on human

29
00:01:07,670 --> 00:01:05,360
physiology and the ability of those

30
00:01:09,670 --> 00:01:07,680
improvements to enhance adaptation to

31
00:01:11,510 --> 00:01:09,680
space flight the food physiology

32
00:01:13,590 --> 00:01:11,520
investigation studies how an enhanced

33
00:01:15,270 --> 00:01:13,600
diet affects astronauts health the

34
00:01:17,429 --> 00:01:15,280
enhanced diet includes an increased

35
00:01:19,990 --> 00:01:17,439
selection of fruits and vegetables and

36
00:01:21,429 --> 00:01:20,000
foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids

37
00:01:23,670 --> 00:01:21,439
keeping astronauts healthy on

38
00:01:25,830 --> 00:01:23,680
long-duration missions is essential and

39
00:01:28,070 --> 00:01:25,840
this study seeks to define targeted

40
00:01:30,069 --> 00:01:28,080
efficient dietary changes to maintain

41
00:01:31,990 --> 00:01:30,079
crew health and performance it could

42
00:01:34,310 --> 00:01:32,000
also contribute to our understanding of

43
00:01:35,510 --> 00:01:34,320
how complex organisms adapt to space

44
00:01:37,670 --> 00:01:35,520
flight

45
00:01:39,510 --> 00:01:37,680
food continued to be the theme as nasa

46
00:01:41,429 --> 00:01:39,520
astronaut megan macarthur worked on the

47
00:01:43,510 --> 00:01:41,439
first formal investigation of how a

48
00:01:45,350 --> 00:01:43,520
repetitive menu affects astronauts

49
00:01:47,830 --> 00:01:45,360
during space flight the food

50
00:01:49,990 --> 00:01:47,840
acceptability investigation examines

51
00:01:51,830 --> 00:01:50,000
changes in the appeal of food aboard the

52
00:01:53,590 --> 00:01:51,840
international space station during long

53
00:01:55,670 --> 00:01:53,600
duration missions

54
00:01:57,749 --> 00:01:55,680
acceptability of food whether crew

55
00:02:00,230 --> 00:01:57,759
members like and actually eat something

56
00:02:03,429 --> 00:02:00,240
may directly affect crew caloric intake

57
00:02:05,109 --> 00:02:03,439
and associated nutritional benefits

58
00:02:06,709 --> 00:02:05,119
that's space to ground for this week
