"We're taking up some science experiments, some crystal growth things, we have a refrigerator that carries up some samples, new samples that go into the station, we bring the old ones home; we have a lot of clothing, we have a lot of food-U.S. and Russian food"

This quote by Linda M. Godwin is explaining the products and experiments that are being used up to the International Space Station. The experiments involve crystal development, and the refrigerator carries samples that are used up to the station and the old samples are restored home. In addition to the experiments, there is also a great deal of clothes and food, both U.S. and Russian, that is being used up to the station. This quote highlights the significance of the experiments and supplies that are being taken up to the station, and the collaboration between the U.S. and Russia in order to make the mission successful. It also shows the value of the research and experiments that are being conducted in space, and the need for the supplies and food to sustain the astronauts throughout their objective.
