All this time of humans in orbit and we’re still fooling around with mice?

Society tends to frown upon the dissection of astronauts.

In my opinion they snuck a bottle of Jack on board..

Hanging out in the Russian sector too much? Had to ask, know it was on everyone’s mind.

I’m not sure I appreciate the gravity of this result (snark).
Haven’t they done liver function tests, if not outright dissection, on space-shuttle astronauts?

...by cosmic radiation, of course...
One astronaut scientist used to sleep in the water storage room to help minimize his constant exposure during his stay in the ISS.

Would be nice to know what these “diabetes-like symptoms” are, specifically, and how they are caused by what sort of liver damage...

Try subjecting them to 9G without the space ride, and then compare results. Could be that those little critters aren’t perfect substitutes for humans.

Absolutely.
Shouldn't that be "Absolut-ly"?
NASA frowns on such beverages. On the ISS, the Russians aren't of the same mind-set.

When you’re out there that long, Vodka’s a guy to do?

“Society tends to frown upon the dissection of astronauts.”
Nasa should be using lawyers for testing instead of white mice - they are more plentiful and you don’t get so attached to them.
