Discover the only National Laboratory located in low Earth orbit -- advancing science in space for life on Earth.
About us
In 2005, Congress designated the U.S. portion of the ISS as the nation’s newest national laboratory to maximize its use for improving quality of life on Earth, promoting collaboration among diverse users, and advancing science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education. This unique laboratory environment is now available for use by non-NASA U.S. government agencies, academic institutions, and the private sector, providing these customers access to a permanent microgravity setting, a powerful vantage point in low Earth orbit, and the extreme and varied environments of space. The ISS National Lab is managed by the Center for the Advancement for Science in Space, under agreement with NASA.

International Space Station National Laboratory reposted this
Growing stem cells? In space? In off-the-shelf, affordable lab hardware? In 3D? We did all that…and more! 🚀🧫 Thrilled to publish our new paper, “Surface tension enables induced pluripotent stem cell culture in commercially available hardware during spaceflight” in Nature NPJ Microgravity! Read for free here: https://lnkd.in/gHeTScgi As with all our space biosciences studies, this was a hugely collaborative effort. Thanks to Clive Svendsen Maedeh Mozneb, Ph.D. Madelyn Arzt and the Cedars-Sinai team, Pinar Mesci, PhD, MSc Jana Stoudemire and Axiom Space, BioServe Space Technologies, NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration, SpaceX, Allen Institute, International Space Station National Laboratory, and Leidos.

According to the World Health Organization, more than 50 million people around the world have #sarcopenia—an age-related condition causing loss of muscle mass, strength, and function thereby increasing the risk of falls and bone fractures. Currently, the only treatment for sarcopenia is exercise. Researchers from the University of Florida are turning to the International Space Station to study this debilitating condition in ways not possible on Earth. #tissuechips Learn more in Upward, the official magazine of the ISS National Lab: https://ow.ly/QuPw50TMKWl

Today marks 40 years since #NASA astronaut Kathryn Sullivan became the first American woman to execute a #spacewalk. Her EVA (extravehicular activity) during STS-41-G on the space shuttle Challenger was just one of many groundbreaking moments in her illustrious career! In 1978, she proudly stood among the first six women chosen for the history-making TFNG (Thirty-Five New Guys) class of astronauts! #PaveTheWay #WomenInSTEM #OTD Image credit: NASA
