Slightly off-topic... but here is a question that keeps popping in my head whenever I see a Space story...
Those astronauts (and cosmonauts and taikonauts) spend literally tens of thousands man hours performing scientific experiments. This is beyond cool... but... is there a place where we can see the actual results of all that work?
It seems to me that reading about the results of all those experiments would be FAR more interesting than reading about the day-to-day life in micro-gravity (which, arguably, is an experiment in itself... but just not the only one).

- yashevde 8y agoI have a nifty IFTTT thing set up that sends me a weekly summary from the ISS, most of which tends to be about their research: https://goo.gl/qSjme7 https://goo.gl/qSjme7 It pulls from these blog posts: https://blogs.nasa.gov/stationreport/ https://blogs.nasa.gov/stationreport/ It's so easy to forget that we (human kind) are actually up there doing solid research all the time. The attention paid in the media to launches, landings, and the work being done seems tragically low to me.
