What is the job of researchers
in the Astronaut Microbiome
Project?
To make sure astronauts' microbiomes
are all alike
To study astronauts' microbiomes to
keep them healthy in space
To study changes in microbiomes
inside astronauts on Earth
To destroy microbiomes so that
astronauts can work
The correct answer is: To study changes in microbiomes inside astronauts on Earth.
The job of researchers in the Astronaut Microbiome Project is to study the changes in microbiomes (the collection of microorganisms) inside astronauts on Earth. This helps to understand how space travel affects the microbiome and how it may impact the health and well-being of astronauts. The goal is to develop strategies to keep astronauts healthy during space missions.
