Butterflies are emerging from their cocoons inside the station's Commercial Generic Bioprocessing Apparatus. Two types of butterflies, the Painted Lady and Monarch, and their ability to grow and develop while in microgravity are being studied. These are the first ever Monarch butterflies in space, and the first Painted Lady butterflies ever to undergo all phases of development (larva, pupae, adult) in microgravity.
