ISS Daily Summary Report – 10/09/2017
Posted on October 9, 2017 at 4:00 pm by HQ.

Multi-Omics Sample Collections:

Спойлер

A 52S crewmember collected fecal samples for the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) Multi-Omics experiment. The samples were placed into the Minus Eighty Degree Celsius Laboratory Freezer for ISS (MELFI). The Multi-omics analysis of human microbial-metabolic cross-talk in the space ecosystem (Multi-Omics) investigation evaluates the impacts of space environment and prebiotics on astronauts' immune function, by combining the data obtained from the measurements of changes in the gut microbiological composition, metabolites profiles, and the immune system.

Veg-03 Operations:

Спойлер

The crew photodocumented the status of the plants in the Veggie facility, and evaluated the plant pillows to determine if additional watering is required. The Veg-03 investigation uses the Veggie plant growth facility to cultivate a type of cabbage, lettuce and mizuna which are harvested on-orbit with samples returned to Earth for testing. Organisms grow differently in space, from single-celled bacteria to plants and humans. Future long-duration space missions will require crew members to grow their own food, so understanding how plants respond to microgravity is an important step toward that goal. Veg-03 uses the Veggie plant growth facility to cultivate a type of cabbage, lettuce and mizuna which are harvested on-orbit with samples returned to Earth for testing.

USOS Extra Vehicular Activity (EVA) 45 Preparation:

Спойлер

Today the crew reconfigured necessary EVA tools, reviewed procedures, and participated in a conference with ground EVA planners in support of next week's EVA. The goals of this EVA include: Removal and Replacement of the degraded CP9 camera and lubrication of the Latching End Effector (LEE) B.

External Robotics Operations:

Спойлер

Over the weekend, robotics ground controllers walked the Space Station Remote Manipulator System (SSRMS) onto Mobile Base System (MBS) Power Data Grapple Fixture 3 (PDGF3). They then maneuvered SSRMS as required to perform a video and imagery survey of the Latching End Effector B (LEE-B) snare cables using an External High Definition Camera (EHDC).  Once the survey was completed, the SSRMS was walked off onto MBS PDGF4 in preparation of US EVA 45 scheduled tomorrow (GMT 283).

Астронавты NASA успешно завершили технические работы за бортом МКС
НЬЮ-ЙОРК, 10 октября. /ТАСС/. Астронавты Национального агентства США по аэронавтике и исследованию космического пространства (NASA) Рэндольф Брезник и Марк Ванде Хай во вторник успешно провели техническое обслуживание механизмов манипулятора Canadarm2 на Международной космической станции (МКС). Трансляцию выхода в открытый космос вело американское космическое ведомство.
Как информировал центр управления полетами в Хьюстоне (штат Техас), одной из ключевых задач, стоявших перед астронавтами, была обработка смазкой механизмов Canadarm2. Выход в открытый космос продолжался в общей сложности почти 6,5 часа. Все запланированные операции были выполнены. Работа будет продолжена на следующей неделе.
В августе у манипулятора Canadarm2 начал пробуксовывать один из механизмов захвата. Как заявляли в NASA, данное обстоятельство не влияет на плановые работы на МКС, хотя неисправный механизм используется для захвата кораблей, доставляющих людей и грузы на орбитальный комплекс, перемещение приборов и грузов в пределах станции. Специалисты считают, что причиной проблемы является износ в результате активной эксплуатации.
Canadarm2, разработанный канадскими специалистами, находится в космосе около 16 лет. Механизмы захвата использовались за это время почти 400 раз.
На текущий месяц запланировано было три выхода в открытый космос. Первый был проведен 5 октября, второй завершился во вторник, а третий, как ожидается, осуществят 18 октября. В этот день операции за бортом станции будут выполнять Брезник и другой астронавт NASA Джозеф Акаба. Помимо них вахту на МКС несут россияне Александр Мисуркин и Сергей Рязанский, а также итальянец Паоло Несполи.

Two Astronauts Begin Second Spacewalk of Mission
Posted on October 10, 2017 at 7:59 am by Mark Garcia.


NASA astronaut Randy Bresnik (bottom center) is dwarfed by a set of basketball court-sized solar arrays and the Earth in the background during a spacewalk on Oct. 5, 2017.

Two NASA astronauts switched their spacesuits to battery power this morning at 7:56 a.m., EDT aboard the International Space Station to begin a spacewalk planned to last about 6.5 hours. Live coverage is available on NASA Television and the agency's website.

Expedition 53 Commander Randy Bresnik and Flight Engineer Mark Vande Hei of NASA will lubricate components of the new latching end effector they installed on the Canadarm2 robotic arm in their first excursion Oct. 5. They will also replace a faulty camera system in the 204th spacewalk in support of assembly and maintenance in station history. This is the fourth spacewalk of Bresnik's career and the second for Vande Hei.

A third spacewalk to continue the lubrication of the new end effector and to replace another camera system on the Destiny Lab is planned for Bresnik and Flight Engineer Joe Acaba of NASA Oct. 18.

ISS Updates‏ @ISS101 7 ч. назад

The External TV Camera Group consists of a standard-definition camera, a light, pan/tilt assembly and an HD camera. The HD cam will be removed first, then the CLPA (Camera, Light, Pan/Tilt Assembly) will be replaced as a whole & the HD cam re-installed.

HD camera unit is removed. These relatively new additions to ISS use commercial-off-the-shelf consumer cameras in a pressurized container w/ lens drive and wireless transmission system.
