Space butterfly picture from Discovery News
Discovery News is reporting (and kudos to the writer for their title) that two butterflies have emerged from their chrysalises on the International Space Station. There have been prior attempts to breed butterflies in space, but these two Painted Ladies are the first to live until their adult phase. The current experiment is in conjunction with the University of Colorado and school children who are raising butterflies on the ground to compare growth rates and other differences between the butterflies in space and Earth-born ones.
When I was in high school, we had the opportunity to be part of an earlier project of this nature where we and a school in the Ukraine raised Wisconsin Fast Plants in conjunction with the astronauts. We were able to compare our data with the other two groups, and, upon completion of the project, we attended a banquet where we got to meet the Ukranian students and some of the people from NASA, as well. It was a very cool way to integrate real science experiments into the curriculum, and I’d like to see more of these projects available here in the United States, if possible.
