Advanced Mini-laboratories Automate Space Station Research
Redwire’s automated ADvanced Space Experiment Processors (ADSEPs) facilitate diverse scientific research on the International Space Station using a cassette-based system to minimize astronaut time.
Why it matters
Automated crystal growth helps create better cancer medications, while research into symbiotic microbes may reduce physiological stress for astronauts on future missions.
The details
- ADSEP-4 can accommodate four cassettes and features imagery capabilities.
- The ADSEP-PIL-10 investigation focuses on creating an oral cancer medication.
- Since 2017, ADSEPs have supported two dozen investigations aboard the space station.
