jsc2024e062109 (9/13/2024) ---The ANT1 Radiation Tolerance Experiment with Moss in Orbit on the Space Station (ARTEMOSS) plates are attached to the foam holder prepared for the ion beam run in the target room at the NASA Space Radiation Laboratory (NSRL), at the Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), with a visible laser used to center the beam placement. The ARTEMOSS investigation examines whether and how an Antarctic moss repairs damage caused by cosmic radiation and microgravity. Image courtesy of Agata Zupanska.
