Abstract
<div class="htmlview paragraph">The fruitfly, <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i>, is an ideal organism for biological research for several reasons: it is small and relatively simple to culture, has a short generation time, and can be grown in numbers large enough to permit meaningful statistical analysis. Its genetics are well understood and easily manipulated, and a vast stock of mutant and engineered strains exist which facilitate the molecular analysis of almost any biological question. In fact, much of what we currently understand about the basic mechanisms underlying metabolism, development, reproduction, behaviour, and aging is derived directly from <i>Drosophila</i> research. For all of these reasons, <i>Drosophila</i> is a logical choice on which to perform basic research into the effects of the spaceflight environment on living systems. The Space Station Insect Habitat is being developed by the Canadian Space Agency in support of this effort. This paper will discuss the challenges encountered in producing a self-contained Insect Habitat capable of not only supporting the growth and development of several generations of <i>Drosophila</i>, but also facilitating the extraction of useful scientific data from sometimes complicated experimental protocols performed with limited crew interaction. One such protocol will be described in detail, illustrating how these logistical problems have been solved, and indicating the sorts of data obtainable in the Habitat and its value to the scientific community.</div>

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
