"New results from the first archaeological fieldwork conducted in space show
the International Space Station is a rich cultural landscape where crew create
their own “gravity” to replace Earth’s, and adapt module spaces to suit their
needs.
Archaeology is usually thought of as the study of the distant past, but it’s
ideally suited for revealing how people adapt to long-duration spaceflight.
In the SQuARE experiment described in our new paper in
PLOS ONE, we
re-imagined a standard archaeological method for use in space, and got
astronauts to carry it out for us."
