You’ve gotta use your tiny, aggressive brain to realize that sensationalized headlines like this aren’t 100% correct. They aren’t printing whole ovaries in space on a janky prototype launch.
They’re conducting experiments, in the same way millions of experiments are conducted on Earth regarding human tissue engineering.
What experiments? You’d have to look at the mission statement. It could be as simple as taking a patch of cells up there and seeing if they adhere/behave differently in space.

Maybe not with a dot-matrix printer, but as this is in space, we just need to add the word Laser & now everything makes future speak sense!
For example, Gun = Laser Gun, Radar = Lidar & Printer = Laser Printer.
Sci-Fi is now!
