MICROAGE EXPERIMENT, PEOPLE WILL LIVE LONGER AND HEALTHIER LIVES

Highlights

  •  People will live longer and healthier lives as a result of the MicroAge Experiment.
  •  Human cells will be launched into space as part of this project.
  •  The experiment will aid in the comprehension of what happens to human cells and why.
  •  The experiment will be sent into space from Florida’s Kennedy Space Center.

How will cells be launched into space?

Human cells have been placed in miniature three-dimensional containers. Once these cells reach space, they will be electrically activated. Electrical stimulation will aid in the induction of muscular contractions. Scientists will be able to examine the cells more closely as a result of this work.

Who is going to examine these cells?

Researchers from the University of Liverpool will examine these cells. The UK Space Agency will support the research. The experiment will be funded with £1.2 million from the UK Space Agency.

What was the impetus for this experiment?

It has long been recognized that astronauts in orbit lose muscle mass quickly. As a result, people have wondered if this is a sign of accelerated ageing. Astronauts on the International Space Station faced a similar issue. Most probably every astronaut on the International Space Station exercises for at least 2.5 hours every day. Despite this, they lose a substantial amount of muscular mass. After they return to earth, they find it difficult to walk for a while. As a result, this experiment will be carried out to investigate the phenomenon of ageing.

MicroAge is a mobile application for people of all ages.

The MicroAge App will provide regular updates and details about the experiment.
