Türkiye's first-ever astronaut, Alper Gezeravci, has completed seven out of the 13 different scientific experiments on his list as part of the Axiom Mission 3 (Ax-3) at the International Space Station.

Gezeravci’s work at the ISS includes conducting experiments in fields including materials science, biology, physics, medicine and genetics.

The Turkish astronaut’s ongoing eighth experiment — named PRANET — examines the antibacterial effects of propolis in microgravity environments, according to the Turkish Space Agency (TUA).

"The microgravity environment creates very different opportunities for scientific research that we do not have in the world," according to the astronaut.

Gezeravci and the other three members of the Ax-3 crew are expected to return from their mission on February 2, having completed 30 scientific experiments during their two-week stay, with Gezeravci responsible for 13 — or nearly half — of them.
