Summary: In April 2018, a strain called Cohnella hashimotonis was isolated from the wall of the Waste Hygiene Compartment on the International Space Station (ISS). This bacterium belongs to the family Paenibacillaceae and exhibits gram-positive, rod-shaped characteristics, as well as motility and the ability to metabolize various carbon compounds.

Summary: Communicating uncertainties in scientific evidence is crucial for accurately reflecting scientific knowledge and increasing public understanding. This study investigated how different types of uncertainty influence responses to medical evidence communication and found that communicating uncertainty does not have detrimental effects, and may even lead to more favorable responses compared to communicating a lack of evidence. Additionally, the study suggests that the format of communication may not significantly impact outcomes, if well-designed.

Summary: In the modern drug discovery process, medicinal chemists use computational tools like dimensionality reduction and classification to analyze large ensembles of candidate molecules. To address the complexity of such data, ChemVA is introduced as an interactive application to visually explore large molecular ensembles and their features, allowing users to efficiently select candidate compounds through multiple coordinated views. This system enables effective visual inspection and comparison of different high-dimensional molecular representations while providing information on the certainty behind these representations.

Summary: This study presents a stretchable high-resolution multicolor synesthesia display that can generate synchronized sound and light. The display is transfer-printed to enhance optical performance and fine sound pressure level. The inherent stretchability of the device enables stable operation under deformation without sound distortion. The display is demonstrated for visual-acoustic encryption and multiplex quick response code applications.

Summary: Despite extensive research, the understanding of human health changes resulting from long-duration space flight is still limited. This study provides a compilation of data from 37 health studies, analyzing 517 parameters, to enhance our understanding of the effects of long-duration spaceflight on human health. The results suggest that there are significant physiological and biochemical changes during spaceflight, while the changes post-flight are minimal.

Summary: This publication lays the foundation for the description of the Multiscale Boiling Experiment conducted on the International Space Station. The experiment investigates two-phase heat transfer during boiling processes by selectively igniting bubbles on a heated substrate using a short laser pulse. The study is significant for understanding the phenomena and has generated over 3000 datasets over an 11-month measurement period.

Summary: Most items from the International Space Station do not return to Earth, posing a challenge for archaeologists who rely on material culture as primary evidence. By observing NASA contractors' processes for handling and returning items back to Earth, a deeper understanding of the meanings and associations of these objects can be gained.

Summary: We have developed and applied a deep learning-based computer vision pipeline to identify crew members in archival photos taken on the International Space Station. Our approach can accurately tag a large number of images from public and private repositories, even when crew faces are partially obscured. Using the results of our pipeline, we conducted a network analysis of the crew, providing novel insights into their social interactions during missions.

Summary: Aotearoa New Zealand's emerging New Space economy provides an opportunity to address space sustainability issues beyond space debris. The conflict between different definitions and paradigms of sustainability emphasizes the importance of diverse values and drivers of change in understanding space sustainability. This paper recognizes the alignment between Indigenous knowledge and practices and systems-thinking and transdisciplinary approaches to space and sustainability. Its aim is to describe how current actions can have long term impacts on the commercial, scientific, and cultural use and access to space.

Summary: This paper presents an analysis of data from thousands of publicly available photographs taken on the International Space Station (ISS) between 2000 and 2020. The analysis identifies the distribution of different population groups based on gender, nationality, and space agency affiliation across modules of the ISS. Understanding the usage patterns of different people is crucial for future utilization and design of space stations.
