Archaeologists conduct first 'space excavation' on ISS and discover surprising quirks of zero-G life

New results from the first archaeological fieldwork conducted in space show the International Space Station is a rich cultural landscape where crew create their own "gravity" to replace Earth's, and adapt module spaces to suit their needs.

Archaeology is usually thought of as the study of the distant past, but it's ideally suited for revealing how people adapt to long-duration spaceflight.

In the SQuARE experiment described in our new paper in PLOS ONE, we re-imagined a standard archaeological method for use in space, and got astronauts to carry it out for us.

Archaeology … in … spaaaaace!

The International Space Station is the first permanent human settlement in space. Close to 280 people have visited it in the past 23 years.

Our team has studied displays of photos, religious icons and artworks made by crew members from different countries, observed the cargo that is returned to Earth, and used NASA's historic photo archive to examine the relationships between crew members who serve together.

From Earth, one might be tempted to view the Sun as a unique celestial object like no other, as it's the star our home planet orbits and the one our planet relies on most for heat and light. But if you took a step back and compared the Sun to the other stars NASA has studied over the years, how would it compare? Would it still be so unique? The Full-sun Ultraviolet Rocket SpecTrograph (FUR

As part of its commitment to advancing lunar exploration, NASA has issued a Request for Information (RFI) to identify potential interest from American companies and institutions in deploying the VIPER Moon rover for a mission. The Volatiles Investigating Polar Exploration Rover (VIPER) was developed to identify and map resources, such as lunar ice, at the Moon's South Pole. Despite NASA's
