While prior studies have characterized effects on stem cell self-renewal and differentiation, the biological impacts of spaceflight on human germ cell development remain unexplored. To address this gap, we deployed automated experimental platforms aboard China's Tianzhou-1 (TZ-1) and Tianzhou-6 spacecraft, enabling fluorescent morphological analysis and multi-omics profiling of stem cell derivatives under orbital conditions. These systems incorporated live-cell imaging, remote operation interfaces from Earth, and integrated sample preservation for time-point-specific specimen capture. Our experiments revealed that spaceflight significantly reduced germ cell yields and dysregulated translational profiles, particularly in cytoskeletal organization and extracellular matrix (ECM) interaction pathways. However, whole-exome sequencing and genome-wide methylation analyses confirmed genomic stability, with no statistically significant mutations during short-term spaceflight. This work establishes an automated platform for real-time analysis of human germ cell differentiation in orbital microgravity and provides a foundation for future space biology research.</description><dates><publication>2026/06/03</publication></dates><accession>GSE307137</accession><cross_references><GSM>GSM9217112</GSM><GSM>GSM9217113</GSM><GSM>GSM9217116</GSM><GSM>GSM9217117</GSM><GSM>GSM9217114</GSM><GSM>GSM9217115</GSM><GPL>24676</GPL><GSE>307137</GSE><taxon>Homo sapiens</taxon></cross_references></HashMap>
