The ISS: A Study Reveals Its Remarkable Microbe-Free Environment

A Clean Space Station

The latest research on the International Space Station (ISS) shows that it is almost as microbe-free as an isolation ward. Scientists conducted the most extensive analysis of microbes aboard the ISS, revealing that they are keeping the environment exceptionally clean.

While the cleanliness is commendable, this study raises questions about whether the high standards of hygiene might be too much. Maintaining a sterile environment is crucial for crew health, yet we must balance it with the need for microbial diversity.
