[FPSPACE] space station science

[Keith Gottschalk]

    When Dwayne Day was an FPSPACer, he repeatedly challenged us to state
any genuine science done on the ISS that passed the test of being accepted
for publication in scholarly journals. This NASA press release refers to
"peer-reviewed publications to date"

  Now that the ISS is nearing completion, we can expect much more science
over the next decade,

 - regards, Keith.
