It's nice to see that we may actually see some real science being done on the ISS.
Two other things I would like to see are a VASIMR engine on the ISS and a closed loop algae system aboard the ISS (using real sunlight).

Antimatter detector to catch last shuttle

GENEVA — A $2 billion machine that will jump-start the search for antimatter and other phenomena was loaded onto a massive U.S. Air Force plane Wednesday for the final leg of its journey on Earth before it catches the last scheduled shuttle flight into space.

Sam Ting, a Nobel laureate and professor of physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, said the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer would be docked to the International Space Station to collect evidence of antimatter, dark matter and other elusive elements of the universe over the next 20 years.
