ICE Cubes Service

We're striking the heart of the matter - with a 3D bioprinter, a miniature heart, a microfluidic chip and Space. With AstroCardia, our latest research project, we look at a microscopic level at what happens to our heart as we age. 👨‍🔬👵 Explore more: astrocardia.com

🛰️ Here you can see exactly where LeopardISS is mounted inside ESA’s Columbus module by @astro_slawosz, in the @ICECubesService Facility - a modular platform that provides power, thermal stability, data links, and real-time communication with Earth.

@Space_Station @ICECubesService @RoInSpace @esa @ISS_Research @NASA 🔬 @astro_Pettit explains it better in this video from space just before he installed the experiment in the @ICECubesService facility on @esa’s Columbus module.

🎯 This night at 3:29 CET our #RISE Experiment Cube reached orbit on a @SpaceX Falcon 9! 🛰 📡 #RISE now in transit to the #ISS, where it will arrive at ~16:15 CET. After docking, #RISE will be installed in the @ICECubesService facility. And then... we're doing science!!🚀

TONIGHT our “Aging Beyond Earth” organoids will be sent out to the ISS on the @SpaceX -31 shuttle at @NASA at Cape Canaveral 🚀🛰️☄️ The samples were SUCCESSFULY loaded into the IceCubes as you can see in the images below! Stay tuned for the updates on the launch this evening!

Happy #NationalAerospaceWeek! 🌍✈️ We celebrate how partnerships between government, industry, and researchers help innovate human activities in space! 🌌 Discover how our #EUfunded project plans to 3D bioprint cardiac models in microgravity at pulse-eic.eu! 🚀💓

@XRPeaceOfMind And if we may add, Space Applications Services is not a startup ;). The company exists since 1987!

The Belgian startup you are referring to is called Space Applications Services. They announced their plans to construct reactors to create oxygen via electrolysis from the moon’s regolith. The European Space Agency’s experimental “oxygen plant” is part of their initiative, but there isn’t a specific company name associated with this particular project within the ESA. However, the ESA itself is leading this research and development effort.

Today we had a productive tour at 2 Polish TVs at @TVP3Warszawa with @axelia86 and Leonardo from @ICECubesService and @FaktyTVP3 with @WMUrbanska #SpaceVolcanicAlgae #PLinSpace #ISS #TV

We are sending Volcanic Algae to space! Want to know more? Follow us and @Extremo_Tech for the latest update on this groundbreaking research project!

Space Volcanic Algae article on @tvp_info. Thank you for spreading the news about experiment 🧪🥼🥽

So cool: #JimGreen mentions @ICECubesService in his lecture about Microgravity research. @ISUnet #SSP24

@Ian_Benecken @ISUnet Thank you dear #JimGreen and @Ian_Benecken and greetings to #SSP24 @ISUnet

We are proud to be part of the #organoids sector in this panoramic landscape of groups using space to advance #biotech! 💗 Our @EUeic project, coordinated by @MoroniGroup , will be 3D #biorpitning #cardiac models via a combo of acoustic & magnetic levitation in space! 🔊 🧲

🚀 Thrilled to announce! 🚀 KP Labs' Leopard Data Processing Unit (DPU) is heading to the #ISS! 🌌🐆 LeopardISS will: 💻 Enhance edge computing 🤖 Facilitate autonomous data processing 🛰 Pave the way for space-based data centers More info: kplabs.space @labs_kp

Our 'Space Volcanic Algae' experiment is heading to the ISS! PI @axelia86 will lead our team in studying extremophilic algae in space. Thanks to @POLSA_GOV_PL @MRiTGOVPL @esa @ICECubesService 🚀 #ISS #spacevolcanicalgae #PLinSpace #extrimophiles #misjaISS

🚀 Exciting News! 🚀 We're supporting @Extremo_Tech in flying their "Space Volcanic Algae" experiment to the #ISS! 🌌🛰️ Volcanic algae can thrive in extreme conditions on Earth. Let's see how they adapt to #microgravity in Space! Explore more: extremo.tech

🧫 A biomedical experiment examined the effects of spaceflight and microgravity on human skin. 🦶 Up to 25% of patients with diabetes develop foot ulcers that can become infected. Astronauts, like diabetics, develop thinner and drier skin while their compromised immune system delays wound recovery. 👨‍🚀 These similarities between astronauts and diabetics allow researchers to better understand bacterial diversity and look for countermeasures. bsgn.esa.int/2023/03/13/mal…

#Unboxing in space 📦 @astro_marcus opens a special delivery from #Earth: a culture of cells for the Memo BC experiment. Researchers are looking into how microgravity triggers changes in cellular structures and gene expression, sometimes with unexpected benefits. 🧬 📸 @ICECubesService + @uppsalauni 🇸🇪

The Annual Conference on Commercial Space Exploration is in full swing! 250+ guests from all over the globe joined us at @esa-ESTEC for an exciting two days filled with talks, workshops, and networking. Don't forget to tag us in your posts if you're onsite with us!🚀

سعدنا بإختتام تجربة إستثنائية ومميزة في الدورة التدريبية لطب الفضاء المعتمدة من جامعة الفضاء الدولية والتي شملت على محاضرات من خبراء مميزين في المجال وورش عمل لتصميم أبحاث طب الفضاء بالإضافة لزيارة لمختبر أبحاث الفضاء لمشاهدة سبل تنفيذ التجارب البحثية في محطة الفضاء الدولية.
