It was great to visit @sahmriAU, hear about their compelling activities, and exchange with them on the translational benefits of space health and medical research.

We were honoured to host Australia’s first astronaut, Katherine Bennell-Pegg at SAHMRI this morning. πŸ‘©β€πŸš€

Before an out-of-this-world presentation about the benefits of microgravity, we toured the SAHMRI facilities, touching down in MITRU, cryogenics, flow cytometry and more.

First taste of microgravity for @astro_slawosz πŸ§‘β€πŸš€βœ¨

How do we know? Meet Joy β€” the baby swan flying with the #Ax4 crew 🦒

More than a zero-g indicator, Joy symbolises grace, unity and the shared spirit of exploration. When Joy floats, it means: welcome to microgravity πŸš€
