Aboard the International Space Station (ISS), astronaut Jack Fisher (Astro2Fish) “spied this cool view through the Japanese Airlock,” which gives astronauts the “great capability…to pass science in & out to space!” Part of the Japanese pressurized module called Kibo, which means "hope" in Japanese, the scientific airlock allows experiments to be transferred and exposed to the external environment of space. Items positioned on the exterior platform outside the airlock focus on Earth observation as well as communication, scientific, engineering and materials science experiments.
