See whats' up on the International Space Station.
More than 300 experiments have been conducted
on the International Space Station to date
and NASA says the orbiting lab is an anchor for the future
of human space exploration.
The International Space Station is a unique
world-class laboratory.
It is orbiting the Earth as we speak.
It houses six astronauts at it full compliment.
To give you a sense of how big it is, it is as big
as a US football field, including the end zone.
And so one of the experiments that have been conducted
on the International Space Station is looking at nutrition,
or the diet of the astronaut, and how that could be used
to a counter measure for those adverse effects.
Be sure to tell your teacher to check
out the NASA Explorer Schools virtual campus.
