In the Japanese Experiment Module “Kibo” of the International Space Station (ISS), researchers used the Cell Biology Experiment Facility (CBEF) to rear mice for 35 days under an artificial gravity environment (1G) in orbit and under a microgravity environment (0G). All mice returned to Earth alive and breed successfully.
