@elonmusk @framonauts @Starlink Did you ask them about the oyster mushrooms?!!😅 Can't wait to see how they colonized and if there was any growth. #spacewillfeedourfuture

I just FaceTimed the @framonauts via @Starlink!

@SpaceX @framonauts @satofishi @astro_jannicke @rprogge @Icetrek Woohoo! Welcome back Fram2.

Splashdown of Dragon and the @framonauts confirmed – welcome back to Earth @satofishi, @astro_jannicke, @rprogge, and @Icetrek!

@SpaceX Amazing!!

Fram2 is go for launch

@satofishi @framonauts So exciting!!!

L-2 days Today was a busy day. I woke up at 2 PM and departed from our quarantine facility at 3:30 PM in a convoy of three Teslas. With NASA security police escort leading the way, we didn’t have to stop for traffic lights. We had breakfast at HangarX before heading to the pad. Arriving at the suit-up room near Pad 39A, we received our satchels containing some necessary medicines, along with a flight iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and AirPods Pro. SpaceX had 3D-printed a tether to connect the two earbuds so they wouldn’t get lost in microgravity. I spent some time loading apps, including X, YouTube, and an offline version of OpenStreetMap, to which I had made many contributions in its early years. I also downloaded apps that use iPhone and iPad sensors to monitor cabin pressure—as an independent redundancy in the unlikely event of cabin depressurization. After that, we had a quick weather briefing, suited up, and jumped into the Teslas for the ride to the pad. Unlike all previous Dragon missions, we’ll launch from the East Coast and splashdown the West Coast. This means we’re actually traveling from one place to another. We’d pack our clothes, personal phones and watches into a bag, which SpaceX staff will transport to Hawthorne, and upon our splashdown, hand over to us on the recovery ship. Ingress, buckling in, seat rotation, comms check, and suit leak check — everything went smoothly. By the time the dry dress rehearsal completed, it was already dark and raining. The walkway from the crew access arm to the tower isn’t fully protected from rain. When the side hatch reopened, the SpaceX ninja team met us with umbrellas and rain jackets, which we wore over our spacesuits to keep our “dry dress” from turning into a “wet dress.” We returned to the suit-up room for a short debrief, had “lunch,” and then headed back to the quarantine facility at 11 PM. The rest of the night was filled with a few more meetings to review some final details. The flight software on Dragon had been frozen, and there were some newly discovered bugs we needed to be aware of. I also had a call with our psychotherapist, Rebecca, who has been working with us since the very beginning of training. At 2:30 AM, Ben, Space Operations Physician at SpaceX, and I went out for a 2-mile run. Jaime, Ben and I have been running every night during quarantine, and sometimes I feel like they have become my bodyguards in Merritt Island’s darkness. Tomorrow, there’s a scheduled Starlink launch at nearby SLC-40. I’m hoping it goes well and that I might watch it from a distance at our quarantine facility.

@SpaceX @Icetrek @framonauts Amazing!

Tune in on Friday, March 28 at ~5:30 p.m. ET to listen to the @framonauts discuss their upcoming Fram2 mission on Spaces → x.com/i/spaces/1gqxv…

@Peter87214766 Thanks for sharing our paper

despite it being in very small amounts. The nutrients we breathe in are known as aeronutrients. This includes oxygen, as it is crucial for cells to produce energy to fuel our bodies, biological functions, & life itself. Our lungs absorb molecules that remain intact that are some

@_jake_robinson It sure does!

@_jake_robinson Thanks for sharing our paper!

@NewYorkSun Thanks for sharing our paper!

A new study reveals that breathing fresh air allows us to absorb nutrients and vitamins, as aeronutrients enter the body through tiny blood vessel networks. buff.ly/3CAzBom

Humans absorb nutrients/chemicals from air, just like they absorb them from food [haidut.me/?p=2714] #aeronutrients #air #breathing #gastronutrients #hormones #pharmaceuticals #steroids #raypeat #idealabs #idealabsdc

@poojagarg1111 Thanks for sharing our paper! 🙌

Can air be a source of human nutrition? Although much is still not known about the nutrients in the air, but the air around us may not only carry pollutants but also vital nutrients, such as vitamins, fatty acids, and minerals, that could support our health. Researchers coined the term 'aeronutrients' to describe the beneficial nutrients in the air. #research

@HYPER_STITION Thanks for sharing our paper!

@_marching_Ents_ Thanks for sharing!

AERONUTRIENTS! Heard of them? This is real! You can absorb things like vitamin B12 and iodine (+ others) by breathing! Very, very fascinating👍 studyfinds.org/nutrients-and-…

@DrEmmaBeckett More weight stigma…

@DrEmmaBeckett Well said! Not only does it not fix the underlying issue but it is a goal that is unrealistic to achieve.

Obesity being linked to disease doesn’t mean “fixing” the obesity (at all costs) prevents the disease. The underlying malnourishment can be addressed without a weight stigmatizing focus, which does its own harms.
