WorldPingMessenger RNA, or mRNA, is best known for carrying genetic instructions from DNA to the cellular machinery that makes proteins.
But all RNA molecules have another, less appreciated property: They are naturally sticky.
Research findings and mission results set the evidence base that policy, funding and later discoveries build on.
