In this April 9, 2015 photo made available by NASA, astronauts Terry Virts, bottom, and Scott Kelly perform eye exams in the Destiny Laboratory of the International Space Station as part of ongoing studies on vision health in microgravity. Kelly sees his nearly completed one-year mission as a 'steppingstone' to Mars. America's record-breaking astronaut will submit to numerous tests when he returns from the International Space Station. Researchers want to see if Kelly would hit the ground running if this were Mars instead of Earth.(NASA via AP)
