Plans for space-science experiments on the International Space Station (ISS) are reviewed, with a focus on biological and medical research with implications for manned missions to the moon and planets (in a scenario culminating in the establishment of a space colony by about the year 2018). Both applied biomedical research (determining the limits of human endurance in space and developing CELSS technology to extend them) and basic research (on the physiological response of plants and animals to the space environment) are discussed, and particular attention is given to the design and deployment schedule for the ISS biomedical hardware modules (Life Sciences Module, Centrifuge Module, and Variable-Gravity Research Facility). Also included are diagrams; drawings; photographs; and tables listing the individual experiments, their objectives, and the hardware required.
