[ link to www.popsci.com] I beg to differ. If you read the article the changes that were displayed were most likely a direct result of the change of environment during the fertilization and developing process. The fish mutated simultaneously to better fit the environment it assumed it would be living in. This gives weight to the idea that evolution can happen nearly instantaneously in a species when the environment changes dramatically. no sorry the fish don't mutate in space, the reason the phenotype is different is because of the different environment, not mutations in the DNA. DNA does not change just because of differences in gravity, radiation may do the trick, but not low gravity.
