Genomic analysis is a crucial aspect of space exploration, enabling researchers to investigate the genetic mechanisms underlying astronaut health and disease. However, current methods for analyzing DNA sequences rely on online resources, which can be limited by connectivity issues and data transfer rates in space environments. To address this challenge, we propose the development of a dedicated device called the Genetic Lab, a portable system designed for rapid, offline genomic analysis.
