How about flying insects? Have they already studied how well different
flying bugs adapt to microgravity?  That would be neat to watch.

Hey Guys!

 

      As a hackerspace and as makers, this will interest you!  

      The Citizens in Space organization has contracted for 10 suborbital
flights of the XCOR Lynx spacecraft. With a nod to open collaboration, they
will fly pathfinder experiments free of charge, for anyone who submits their
experiment licensed as open-source hardware. 

      If you have an idea for an experiment you'd like to fly into space,
check out the details on how to design and submit at:
