• Resumen

  • The article discusses a yearlong study by U.S. National Aeronautics & Space Administration (NASA) scientists on the effect of space travel on human health, during which identical twin astronaut Scott Kelly will live on the International Space Station (ISS) for one year beginning in March 2015. Scientists will observe changes in his genetic expression in the zero-gravity environment compared to that of his brother and fellow astronaut Mark Kelly's while on earth.
