I can't think of anything that's as exciting as I'm sure this mission will be, and actually being in space. But, we did some training as a crew together. Laurel Clark crowexcitmission Change image and share on social

It's such a long mission and we get to spend so much time in space... we're doing such exciting research. And I don't want to overemphasize the life science research, but as a physician the life science research that we're doing is extremely exciting. Laurel Clark excitextremelylife share on social
Gravity pulls our bodily fluids down, like water in a glass goes to the bottom part of a glass. In space, the water doesn't stay in the bottom of the glass. It distributes itself evenly over time throughout the entire volume of the glass. Laurel Clark bodilybottomdistribute share on social
Gravity is one variable in a lot of scientific processes. If you can remove gravity or minimize its effect, then you can understand the other processes that are going on. Laurel Clark effectgravitylot Change image and share on social
I can't think of anything specific growing up that pointed me toward NASA at all. I was interested in the Moon landings just about the same as everyone else of my generation. But I never really thought about being an astronaut or working in space myself. Laurel Clark astronautgenerationgrow share on social
