A team of STEM Scouts, a coed program of the Boy Scouts of America, are designing an experiment that will study how bacteria changes in the microgravity environment of space. The STEM Scouts project was selected as part of the National Design Challenge competition—an ISS National Lab education program that enables student teams to propose, design, and launch research experiments into space.
