2016-03-18 - Astronauts on long-duration missions are at risk of many health problems related to accelerated ageing and immobility.

ESA astronaut Tim Peake is taking part in the Canadian experiment MARROW that will study these effects to benefit astronauts and people on Earth who are bedridden or who have reduced mobility.

Supplies for MARROW will be launched to the ISS on the Cygnus spacecraft on March 22, 2016. (Credits: Canadian Space Agency, NASA, University of Ottawa)
