NASA astronaut Megan McArthur installs a new ADSEP-2 (Advanced Space Experiment Processor-2) containing ADSEP-UMAMI samples inside the Kibo laboratory module aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The Understanding of Microgravity on Animal-Microbe Interactions (UMAMI) investigation examines the effects of spaceflight on the molecular and chemical interactions between beneficial microbes and their animal hosts. The ADSEP-2 facility supports observations of biological or physical samples and can also be operated aboard the Cargo Dragon and Northrop Grumman Cygnus resupply ships
