Another experiment being delivered will look into bacteria found in the human gut, called Bacillus subtilis, which helps prevent foodborne diseases and protects gut health. The experiment will see how the DNA of this bacterium is affected by spaceflight, in order to understand more about microbiology in space and to help keep astronauts healthy.
