The video discusses two main topics: the effects of space on mice and the discovery of a highly luminous galaxy. In the first part, researchers studied mice that lived in space and found they had thinner skin and more hair growth. This experiment, published in the journal Microgravity, highlights the need for further research on the effects of space on living organisms.
