As we age, our bones become thinner, we suffer fractures more often, and bone-diseases such as osteoporosis are more likely to occur.

3D bioprinting may soon be practical on Earth, and could help meet the challenging conditions of spaceflight.

NASA's Perseverance mission has put an end to the deafening silence by recording the first ever Martian sounds.

Astronauts might one day grow and eat genetically modified plants to ward off disease associated with long spaceflights.

A tissue engineering advance using sound waves, could one day help patients regrow bone lost to cancer or degenerative disease.

Researchers have developed a tiny, 3D-printed technology that can be assembled like Lego blocks and help repair broken bones and soft tissue
