Outer Space Oreos
May 7, 2009 / Written by: Michael Schirber
Scientists have previously exposed organisms and biomolecules to the many rigors of space, but those experiments only managed to take “before” and “after” pictures of their samples.

The upcoming O/OREOS mission will be the first demonstration flight of the ASTID small payloads initiative.
