On March 18, the first batch of coronavirus proteins will be sent to the International Space Station for research. According to the Russian laboratory of biotechnological research spokespeople, a series of experiments awaits them, the first of which will last eight days. It is planned to grow COVID-19 protein crystals using a 3D bioprinter. The samples will then be returned to planet Earth, where they will participate in experiments for another month and a half. The next dispatch is scheduled for autumn.
