  1. From the article

    >An analysis of dust samples obtained from the [space station](https://phys.org/tags/space+station/) found that repeated elevated humidity exposures for even a short time can lead to rapid microbial growth and composition changes in dust that make it easier for microbes, such as fungi, to thrive.

    >The study provides important insight into how healthy environments might be maintained during future missions, especially as the [commercial space industry](https://phys.org/tags/commercial+space+industry/) begins to prompt more people to live and work above Earth, said Karen Dannemiller, senior author of the study and an associate professor of civil, environmental and geodetic engineering and environmental health sciences at The Ohio State University.

    >”It’s really important to understand the exposures that happen in the space environment in part because we see immune system changes in astronauts,” she said. “People who are normally healthy individuals may be especially vulnerable to microbes in space, more so than on Earth.”

    Just crack a window every now and then. Nothing can survive the vacuum of space, not even mold.
