On December 30, iLEAD Exploration’s DreamUp Launch Team Charlie conducted their post-flight analysis of the International Space Station experiment. They unpacked and analyzed their samples and experienced something few have: the chance to hold something that had been in space. The team compared the germination, root growth, and root structure of Glechoma hederacea in space and on Earth. Thank you, DreamUp, Nanoracks, and iLEAD California, for partnering with us to support learners with this rigorous, real-world aerospace opportunity!
