The Microbial Experience of Spaceflight

Описание: Microbes travel to space in all sorts of ways, from riding in test tubes to hitchhiking on spacecraft. How does the mode of space travel influence microbial experiences in space? And why should we care (planetary protection, astronaut health, using microbes to support sustained space exploration)?
