I spent 6 months on the International Space Station and was the Station’s first Science Officer. As part of the Expedition 5 crew, I was in space for over 184 days.
In space, I really liked peanut butter.
I developed a process for separating blood cells from plasma for storage on the Space Station.
I am from Beaconsfield, Iowa. I love gardening, especially taking care of flowers. My father is a soybean farmer. In space, I worked on a soybean experiment, taking seeds, growing them, harvesting new seeds, and seeing if the genes changed in anyway.
I performed a 4-hour space walk to install parts of the Space Station structures.
