It was great to visit @sahmriAU, hear about their compelling activities, and exchange with them on the translational benefits of space health and medical research.
We were honoured to host Australia’s first astronaut, Katherine Bennell-Pegg at SAHMRI this morning. 👩🚀. Before an out-of-this-world presentation about the benefits of microgravity, we toured the SAHMRI facilities, touching down in MITRU, cryogenics, flow cytometry and more.

So happy to see my mate @astro_slawosz launch to space !!.
First taste of microgravity for @astro_slawosz 🧑🚀✨. How do we know? Meet Joy — the baby swan flying with the #Ax4 crew 🦢. More than a zero-g indicator, Joy symbolises grace, unity and the shared spirit of exploration. When Joy floats, it means: welcome to microgravity 🚀. @esa
