What We Learned This Year from Space Station Science
Dozens of experiments are going on at any given time aboard the International Space Station. Research conducted in 2020 is advancing our understanding in areas of study from Parkinson’s disease to combustion.
Space station research results published this year came from experiments performed and data collected during the past 20 years of continuous human habitation aboard the orbiting laboratory. Between October 1, 2019, and October 1, 2020, the station’s Program Research Office identified more than 300 scientific publications based on space station research.
Here are the highlights of what we learned this year about groundbreaking space station science:www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/research/news/what-we-learned-from-space-station-2020

That is a really tremendous movie. Very thought provoking and aspects of it were quite fascinating. I thought Morse gave an excellent performance as well. I liked the cast in this one, thought all were good choices.

I don't know if anybody has watched the Test. If so you might have wondered why the test was aborted after only 2 Minutes.
The Engines were supposed to burn for 8 Minutes, to simulate the start and the ascent.
NASA is explaining what went wrong:Click me

Is it something you can get in Germany? All NASA all the time 24/7, LOL. www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/#public I had to google this. You can get it via satellite.
I always watch the simulcast on their website.
