SpaceX’s Cargo Dragon Delivers Christmas Gifts, Feasts To Astronauts In Space

Astronauts try different experiments in space
In the most exciting experiment, NASA sent astronauts bioprinted bandages and detergents for use in space. According to the agency, bioprinting can be used to print tissue structures using living cells and biomolecules. This technological breakthrough will speed up the healing process, as the bioprinter will create a tissue-forming patch that uses the person’s own skin cells to cover the wound. NASA’s Mark Garcia wrote in his blog: “In future missions to the moon and Mars, bioprinting of this customized patch can help resolve wound healing changes that may occur in space and complicate treatment.”

Another exciting scientific experiment is to study the decontamination components of detergents, which help to wash clothes in space to improve their reusability. The agency worked with Procter & Gamble (P&G) to design a fully degradable detergent called Tide Infinity that can be used under zero gravity conditions. Interestingly, the successful operation of this cleaning agent in space will produce new cleaning methods on Earth, which are feasible even when resources are scarce. Other scientific experiments include analyzing and monitoring the development of plant shoots and roots under microgravity, as well as assessing the reduction of human immunity and the risk of space infection.

Nasa’s old map of Jupiter, which reminds many of dosa, has gone viral once more

Certain images or videos frequently resurface on the Internet, leaving people speechless. When those clips or pictures are shared again on one social media platform or another, they create a buzz. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (Nasa) created and posted this image of a map of Jupiter online a few years ago. After being shared on Twitter, the image drew a lot of attention this time. And, as usual, the image made people think of dosa, a popular South Indian dish.

The image was shared by the Twitter account Latest in Space. “From the very bottom of Jupiter, I’m looking up. While tweeting the image, they wrote, “Seen by NASA Cassini.” The images from the Cassini spacecraft’s narrow-angle camera were used to create this out-of-this-world image, which is part of a coloured map series produced by the space agency.

The article was published a few days ago. The tweet has received nearly 20,000 likes since it was shared, and the number is growing. The tweet has been retweeted more than 2,000 times. Take a look at some of the comments to see how the image of Jupiter looks like dosa.

A Twitter user commented, “Looks like a designer dosa.” “When I rush to pick up a call, this is what happens to my dosa on the dosa pan,” one joked. “This is how my mother makes Dosa,” a third said. “Jupiter in the making,” wrote a fourth, along with a photo of someone preparing – you guessed it – dosa.
