Photographic documentation of Mission Specialists Pierre Thuot and Marsha Ivins of STS-62 examining the Commercial Protein Crystal Growth (CPCG) Experiment onboard the Space Shuttle Columbia. These protein crystal growth investigations are conducted in space because space-grown crystals tend to be larger, purer, and more highly structured than Earth-grown crystals. Such crystals greatly facilitate the study of protein structures.
