SpaceX spacecraft carrying fire and mice to the International Space Station

On December 4, SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket will carry the Dragon chamber filled with supplies and special testing equipment to the International Space Station (ISS).

According to Wired, this is SpaceX's 19th flight to ISS under the program of the US Space Agency (NASA). After loading cargo onto the ISS, the Falcon 9 rocket is scheduled to land on a Atlantic ship. Dragon's chamber will return to Earth after a month.

Scientific experiment tools make up 30% of the cargo that is transported to the research station that orbits the Earth. Astronauts on the ISS will use the device to study the behavior of fire under non-gravity conditions.

Thus, the astronaut team will set fire on the ISS. It sounds very dangerous, but this experiment was done in a closed environment and there was little chance of the fire spreading.

By better understanding the behavior of fire, the researchers hope to limit the consequences of underground fires.

40 mice will be used to study how muscle degradation in outer space. Astronauts who have worked on ISS have suffered from muscular and bone degeneration.

With this experiment, scientists expect to find a way to prevent muscle and bone degeneration.
