ISS Daily Summary Report – 8/18/2017
Posted on August 18, 2017 at 4:00 pm by HQ.

Rodent Research 9 (RR-9):

Спойлер

The crew activated the water lixits and installed food bars in two Animal Habitats for the RR-9 investigation today. They then transferred 20 mice fr om the Transporter to the habitats after checking the health of the mice. The RR-9 experiment studies how microgravity affects the immune systems, muscles and bones of rodents during extended stays aboard the ISS. After approximately 30 days aboard the ISS, the mice will be returned to Earth where scientists on the ground will study how their time in space has affected various tissues, including brain, muscle, heart, joint, the eyes and the immune system.

ISS Non-invasive Sample Investigation and results Transmission to ground with the Utmost easiness (In Situ):

Спойлер

The crew collected a saliva sample and processed it in the bioanalyzer for the In Situ investigation. Crew members on the ISS are continually monitored for health changes, and as part of these measurements, they take saliva samples that are stored and returned to Earth. The In Situ bioanalysis uses a portable device that can check crew members' saliva on board the ISS, enabling direct real-time analysis. The device's first uses are to monitor stress levels and appetites among crew members. Humans living in space experience dramatic changes to their health, from weakened bone and muscle to reduced appetites and increased stress levels. The device uses disposable cartridges that check for the presence of the stress hormone cortisol. A miniature analytical device that can detect certain biomarkers using non-invasively collected samples would benefit health care workers on Earth, from emergency medical technicians on call, to small rural clinics in developing countries.

Vascular Echo Ultrasound:

Спойлер

A crewmember performed a Vascular Echo resting ultrasound of the neck, thigh and heart and collected blood pressure measurements. This Canadian Space Agency investigation examines changes in blood vessels and the heart while crew members are in space, and then upon their return to Earth. The results could provide insight into potential countermeasures to help maintain crew member health.

Space Technology and Advanced Research Systems (STaARS) Intraterrestrial Fungus (iFUNGUS):

Спойлер

The crew stowed a mesh bag containing iFUNGUS cryotubes at ambient air in Node 1. STaARS-iFUNGUS cultures a rare type of fungus in the microgravity environment of space in order to search for new antibiotics. The fungus, Penicillium chrysogenum, comes from deep in the Earth's subsurface and shows potential as a source for new antibacterial compounds. The iFUNGUS experiment transports frozen samples of fungal spores to the ISS, grows the fungus in different nutrient mixtures over different intervals, refreezes the samples and then returns them to Earth, wh ere scientists examine how they grew and what chemicals they produced. STaARS-iFUNGUS demonstrates how the microgravity environment of space can serve as a laboratory and production facility for new life science discoveries. Discoveries generated by this research can foster further research and production efforts that utilize low gravity conditions to create novel compounds or other products.

Tangolab-1 and -2:

Спойлер

During the initial card installation activity yesterday a Payload Card would not seat properly in Tangolab-2. Using procedures developed overnight by ground teams, the crew was able today to successfully install that Payload Card in TangoLab-1. The Payload Developer confirmed good data flow for the Card. This card contains one experiment to study genetic mutations in fruit flies and one to study Carbon Dioxide scrubbing in cactus.

Space Headaches:

Спойлер

The 51 Soyuz (51S) USOS crewmembers completed weekly questionnaires for the ESA Space Headaches investigation. The investigation collects information that may help in the development of methods to alleviate associated symptoms and improvement in the well-being and performance of crewmembers in space. Headaches during space flight can negatively affect mental and physical capacities of crewmembers that can influence performance during a space mission.

Dose Tracker:

Спойлер

A crewmember completed a weekly medication tracking entry today in the Dose Tracker application that runs on an iPad. Dose Tracker documents the medication usage of crewmembers before and during their missions by capturing data regarding medication use during spaceflight, including side effect qualities, frequencies and severities. The investigation is expected to provide anecdotal evidence of medication effectiveness during flight and any unusual side effects experienced. It is also expected that specific, near-real-time questioning about symptom relief and side effects will provide the data required to establish whether spaceflight-associated alterations in pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics is occurring during missions.

The crew reviewed SpX-12 Dragon training materials to include emergency response review and emergency hatch closure.

Yomiuri: Токио хочет увеличить число запусков микроспутников с модуля "Кибо" на МКС
ТОКИО, 20 августа. /Корр. ТАСС Алексей Заврачаев/. Японское агентство аэрокосмических исследований (JAXA) планирует значительно увеличить количество коммерческих запусков микроспутников, главным образом иностранных, с помощью своего научного модуля "Кибо" на Международной космической станции (МКС).
....
Обычно такие аппараты запускают на тяжелых ракетах-носителях вместе с крупными спутниками, однако такой способ имеет массу недостатков. В первую очередь они касаются высокой цены, расписания стартов и ограничения по весу. Также не все малые спутники способны выдержать перегрузки и вибрации, которые неизбежны при запуске на ракете с Земли, что в итоге приводит к выходу их из строя и, как следствие, впустую потраченным средствам.

Что-то я пропустил, до МКС у же лифт ходит?  :oops:  

Доставили на МКС. Член экипажа проверил что возможно и после проверки запускают. Журналисты написали криво.

Вместе с тем, Япония не исключает предоставления и бесплатных услуг

При этом

К примеру, с начала года 14 аппаратов были выведены на орбиту Земли абсолютно безвозмездно, а еще пять - по минимальной расценке, в том числе первый в истории для Ганы.

Жалко не написали сколько всего с начала года. Может кто напишет?'

As the sun rose on our Russian crew's 7.5 hr spacewalk, their helmets lights gave off a glow that made it look like they were underwater...

...but all we had to do was look down to be reminded that they were 250 miles high, not 250 fathoms deep

Хорошо, проверили и... оказалось, что "не выдержал"! И что же дальше с ним сделают? Допустим, предложат заказчику оплатить бережный возврат "на ручках", а в случае отказа, наверно, просто - выкинут

Transit of Space Station During the 2017 Total Solar Eclipse

NASA.gov Video

Опубликовано: 21 авг. 2017 г.

In this video captured at 1,500 frames per second with a high-speed camera, the International Space Station, with a crew of six onboard, is seen in silhouette as it transits the sun at roughly five miles per second during a partial solar eclipse, Monday, Aug. 21, 2017 near Banner, Wyoming. Onboard as part of Expedition 52 are: NASA astronauts Peggy Whitson, Jack Fischer, and Randy Bresnik; Russian cosmonauts Fyodor Yurchikhin and Sergey Ryazanskiy; and ESA (European Space Agency) astronaut Paolo Nespoli. A total solar eclipse swept across a narrow portion of the contiguous United States from Lincoln Beach, Oregon to Charleston, South Carolina. A partial solar eclipse was visible across the entire North American continent along with parts of South America, Africa, and Europe. Photo Credit: (NASA/Joel Kowsky)
