(N.Morgan) Yes, you read that right, Ants in space.. It reminds me of something off of the Muppets. Students are studying the evolution of the ants, in space. If their behavior will change and their problem solving skills.
A very odd, yet interesting study,in the mass behavior of a group and how it is effected by an extreme change of circumstances.
Just call them “ant-ronauts.” A private robotic spacecraft that launched to the International Space Station Thursday (Jan. 9) may have been unmanned, but it was packed with about 800 living six-legged spaceflyers hoping to set up a colony in orbit.
As part of a student experiment, eight ant farms hitched a ride to the orbiting lab alongside the food, supplies and other gear being delivered to the astronauts.
