In the Destiny laboratory aboard the International Space Station (ISS), European Space Agency (ESA) astronaut Pedro Duque of Spain is seen working at the Microgravity Science Glovebox (MSG). He is working with the PROMISS experiment, which will investigate the growth processes of proteins during weightless conditions. The PROMISS is one of the Cervantes program of tests (consisting of 20 commercial experiments). The MSG is managed by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC).

iss008e18236 (3/3/2004) --- Close-up view of a PromISS 3 (Protein Crystal Growth Monitoring by Digital Holographic Microscope) experiment sample. The experiment was conducted by the Expedition 8 crew in the Microgravity Science Glovebox (MSG) located in the Destiny U.S. Laboratory aboard the International Space Station (ISS).
