While a core
microbiota of the same bacteria was present in all areas of the mock - up spacecraft, the authors noticed specific
bacterial signatures for each individual area, or module, indicating that — much like in other indoor environments — microbial presence is associated with human presence as well as the type of activity that an area is used for.
The team of researchers from Germany, UK and Austria, led by the German Aerospace Center (DLR), found that apart from the crew who were the main source of human - associated bacteria inside the habitat, confinement appeared to be the strongest trigger shaping the

microbiota, which is composed of diverse populations of commensal
bacterial species, provides resistance against colonization and invasion by pathogens.
