Life science research can be done on multiple platforms. Since we have a very small number of people flying into space, the more people you have, the better.

We're doing a multitude of different scientific experiments on orbit on things that are only possible to be done in the space environment.

Our blood volume isn't pulled down toward our feet. It shifts upward. So, people's faces in space tend to look puffy. Especially initially in the mission, because those changes in hemodynamics or the pressures of the fluids and your body reacts to those.

The breathing maneuvers themselves are much more complicated than I ever imagined. They require a great amount of concentration. You have to control the number of times you're breathing, the rate with which you're breathing. And we take for granted so much about just breathing.

There was a moth in there, and it still had its wings crumpled up, and it was just starting to pump its wings up. Life continues in lots of places, and life is a magical thing.

Motherhood's been incredible, and I tell my son all the time that my most important job is being his mother.

Some of the experiments are purely resting, and we use the ergometer as a place to maintain stability. But we are breathing into a mouthpiece that's connected to a tube, and it measures several different things, including the velocity of the airflow, and we're breathing specific gases in.

We're incredibly lucky to be able to be working where we are up above the Earth and being able to see our planet from that vantage point.

We're looking at Earth science, observing our planet. Also space science, looking at the ozone in the atmosphere around our Earth. Also looking at life science. And on a human level, using ourselves as test subjects.

We have a stockpile of photographs and images that NASA has taken over the years, and there're an incredible number of scientists that do research just looking at the pictures that we take from the shuttle.

We launch. We get up early in the morning to get dressed and get out to the shuttle. We have the whole launch thing. We reconfigure the vehicle from a rocket to an orbiting laboratory. Then, we do our first day mission-critical science.

We've had such thorough training, we've had an excellent team on the ground. With the minor glitches that have occurred, we've been able to take care of them. And the teams on the ground are getting tons of incredible data.

I'm expecting to have a lot of fun. I'm expecting to be tired at the end. But I'm expecting it to be the experience of my lifetime so far.

Science, for hundreds of years, has spanned the differences between cultures and between countries.

Certainly my parents were a huge influence. They always expected the most out of all of us. And expected us to do our very best. I'm thankful to them for allowing me to do what I wanted to do.

The perspective is truly awe-inspiring... lightning spreading over the Pacific, the Aurora Australis lighting up the entire visible horizon with the cityglow of Australia below... Magically, the very first day we flew over Lake Michigan and I saw Wind Point.

Gravity pulls our bodily fluids down, like water in a glass goes to the bottom part of a glass. In space, the water doesn't stay in the bottom of the glass. It distributes itself evenly over time throughout the entire volume of the glass.

It's such a long mission and we get to spend so much time in space... we're doing such exciting research. And I don't want to overemphasize the life science research, but as a physician the life science research that we're doing is extremely exciting.

There's a lot of different things that we do during life that could personally harm us and I choose not to stop doing those things.

I can't think of anything that's as exciting as I'm sure this mission will be, and actually being in space. But, we did some training as a crew together.
