NIMFS have successfully made it to the International Space Station as part of the Touching Surfaces experiment! 🚀 Super proud for all people involved in the research including PI Ralf Moeller & Katharina S. from DLR - English, Universität Saarland, Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg & Centre for Nature Inspired Engineering 👉 bit.ly/3tk2gVZ

As part of European Space Agency’s Cosmic Kiss mission, Touching Surfaces arrived in SpaceX CRS-23 on the International Space Station! So proud of contributing to the project with NIMFS to test antimicrobial & humidity responses for sustainable life-support in #space & on Earth. ➡️ bit.ly/3tk2gVZ

Forschung zum Anfassen 👉🔲: Das #CosmicKiss-Experiment Touching Surfaces testet antimikrobielle Oberflächen - im All und auf der Erde. 🧫 Auf der #ISS, in der Uniklinik Köln & in zehn Schulen sind sog. Touch Arrays angebracht, die regelmäßig berührt werden. dlr.de/content/de/art…

We are happy to see an increase in #gender balance in the stage 2 of this #astronaut selection🚀: Out of a total of 1362 candidates invited to Stage 2, #female candidates represent 39% of the total 👩‍🚀 This is great news! #ESA #YourWayToSpace #DiversityandInclusion

The final figures are in!👩‍🚀👨‍🚀 Applications to European Space Agency's astronaut selection have been broken down by Member and Cooperating State. See who applied and who's progressing in our latest #astronautselection update. esa.int/About_Us/Caree… #YourWayToSpace

Apply to be an analogue astronaut for the UK's FIRST EVER analogue space mission. If you're a healthcare worker or first aider and want to be involved check out their webpage here. Applications CLOSE THIS SUNDAY so not a lot of time to get them in! ucl.ac.uk/risk-disaster-…

In location to deliver an expeditionary Prolonged Field Care course this weekend including to astronauts* in fact, to a team of analogue astronauts. After several years working closely with academic colleagues on our space research side, the day has come R2Rinternational.com

5,4,3,2,1…PFC is go…Prolonged Field Care course just started, including for a team of analogue astronauts as part of our research work in space/PFC. All delivered by us at @PlasyBrenin R2Rinternational.com #prolongedfieldcare #spacemedicine #expedition

T-7 days until the UK's first medical space analog research mission kicks off! The mission is spearheaded by UCL’s Space Health Risks Research Group @UCLIRDR and COSS affiliate @MylesHarrisMH, and will simulate how prolonged health care can be provided in remote environments.

Team members back from UK’s first ever Analogue Space Mission on a deserted island off the w. coast of Scotland. 3 yrs of work gone into this UCL led project. Research feeds into a PhD:Prolonged Field Care & to support & inform future non terran incident/space medicine knowledge

Honoured to have taken part as #AnalogueAstronaut in the 1st UK analogue #space research mission! We engaged in 3 healthcare scenarios on a remote island - read more 👉 bit.ly/3QtBLIO @MylesHarrisMH @DeepaLucy Centre for Nature Inspired Engineering UCL Centre for Outer Space Studies @UCLIRDR Remote Area Risk International ETHNO-ISS

The CHILL-ICE II mission begins soon! As prep, I did my dry suit diver course today to dive into the Silfra fissure. During the mission, I’m excited to serve as commander/scientist in a team of 3 analogue astronauts. Iceland Space Agency Austr.
