Plenty of clocks around us are useful for telling us the precise hour, minute, and second of the day. However, few can give us an intuitive sense of how far away we are from the enveloping cloak of ...

ETH Zurich 3D printed human muscle in microgravity, advancing space bioprinting and biomedical research beyond Earth.

Researchers are 3D printing human muscle in zero gravity to create better disease models and improve astronaut health during space missions.

This is an updated version of a story first published on Oct. 8, 2023. The original video can be viewed here. There was a time when futurists were predicting that the advent of 3D printing was going ...

Explore how ETH Zurich successfully performed 3D print in microgravity, creating human muscle tissue in simulated zero gravity.

Creating accurate biological structures on Earth is notoriously difficult. Gravity affects how cells settle and how printed ...

Forget the weird, inflatable habitats you've seen in sci-fi movies. Your future Martian house could actually feel a lot like home here on Earth (even if it looks totally different) Claire Reilly was a ...

Human health remains one of the greatest challenges in space exploration. When astronauts spend long periods in space, their bodies weaken dramatically—especially their muscles and bones. Now, ...
