TeikyoSat-3 is a technology demonstrator and microbiology microsatellite intended to research the slime mold life cycle in space. Specifically the effects of ionizing radiation (20-30 Gy/year) are or special concern. The primary mission is expected to be finished in 10–20 days with completion of first life cycle of slime mold in space but mission can be extended to study evolutionary adaptations for a maximum of 1 year.
