	Biolab is the ESA facility to perform biological experiments in space, to study the effect of microgravity and space radiation on samples as cell cultures, small invertebrates, micro-organisms, small plants. Biolab is developed as part of the ESA Microgravity Facilities for Columbus (MFC) programme. Biolab will be flown on the ESA Columbus Module, part of the International Space Station. Biolab is integrated into an International Standard Payload Rack. The left side of the Biolab, the so called automated Core Unit is were the experiments are actually performed. The right side, the manual section, is mainly used for sample storage and specific crew activities.

Atelier Guarniero creates high quality space models, many of which are part of the ESA space program and of the International Space Station (ISS). Each scale model is made exactly matching the real spacecraft using information provided by the European space agency. At the moment we are working on a new line of rocket models beginning with the Soyuz launcher. We are planning to create a full line of rockets to complement our collection of satellites. Make sure to check back often to see pictures of every new satellite we produce.
