Jessica Meir(@Astro_Jessica):Yesterday’s science. Started the morning with a blood draw to analyze what has changed in my body from our time on the @Space_Station (17 tubes! 16 shown here), while wearing a temperature monitor (the stylish headband) for 36 hours, followed by a study to understand what happens to neck muscles and their control while in space. Gravity is still feeling overrated, but I’m happy to contribute to this important science!
