ISS Daily Summary Report – 8/19/2019

Vascular Aging:

The crew performed glucose tests and blood draws in support of the Vascular Aging study. Emerging data indicates links among cardiovascular health risk, carotid artery aging, bone metabolism and blood biomarkers, insulin resistance, and radiation. Data indicate that aging-like changes are accelerated in many ISS crew members, particularly with respect to their arteries. As part of the Vascular Aging investigation, ultrasounds of the arteries, blood samples, oral glucose tolerance, and wearable sensors from ISS crew members are analyzed.

Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) Education Payload Observation (EPO):

The crew recorded an event to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the JEM module. JAXA EPO activities demonstrate artistic activities on board the ISS/JEM to enlighten the general public about microgravity research and human space flight.

TangoLab Mission 13:

The crew removed card cube samples for TangoLab 1 and 2. Space Tango MultiLab Lockers are reconfigurable general research facilities designed for microgravity research and development and pilot manufacturing aboard the ISS. Experiments for Mission 13 include: Microbial Nitrogen Fixation, Quest NextGen Lab-2, Space Tango-Human Brain Organoid, and Space Tango-Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells.

Micro-15:

The crew performed the first set of Micro-15 fixation operations. The goal of this investigation is to better understand the effects of gravity on the differentiation of mammalian cells using 3-D cultures of induced pluripotent stem cells. Past flight experiments and ground-based simulations have demonstrated that microgravity influences gene expression, cell proliferation, and differentiation in stem cells but the mechanism behind these observations is not clearly understood. This study investigates how exposure to microgravity fundamentally alters cell regulation and how these changes can affect the timing, progression, and outcomes of cell differentiation.

Goodyear Tire:

The crew performed sample activation. Pushing the Limits of Silica Fillers for Tire Applications (Goodyear Tire) evaluates creation of novel silica forms and structures, or morphologies, using traditional techniques to form silica fillers in microgravity. The space environment may yield results not possible in ground-based environments. Better understanding of silica morphology and the relationship between silica structure and properties may improve the silica design process as well as silica rubber formulation and tire manufacturing and performance on the ground.

Mobile Servicing System (MSS) Operations:

On Friday afternoon, Robotics Ground Controllers powered up the MSS and performed a Pressurized Mating Adapter (PMA)3 sealing surface survey. They then reconfigured the system for today's International Docking Adapter (IDA)3 extraction from the Dragon trunk in preparation for Wednesday's IDA3 Extravehicular Activity (EVA).

[свернуть]

Remote Power Control Module (RPCM) LAD62B-A Remote Power Controller (RPC) 4:

On Saturday, this RPC that provides power to the Lab Major Constituent Analyzer (MCA) tripped. Loss of the MCA results in loss of redundancy for atmospheric monitoring. Following the RPC trip, then experienced a Power On Reset (POR) which caused the Lab Carbon Dioxide Removal Assembly (CDRA), Smoke Detector, and Avionics Air Assembly (AAA) to turn off. Ground teams downlinked and analyzed the 50Hz and 1kHz data and determined that the RPCM failure was most likely a Field Effect Transistor (FET) Controller Hybrid (FCH) issue. RPC 04 was commanded closed as part of RPCM FCH troubleshooting, however, the RPC remained open. Teams confirmed this is a case of a failed open RPC. The Lab rack equipment was quickly recovered with the exception of the MCA. Node 3 MCA is operating nominally. Teams are discussing a forward plan for recovering RPC 4.

NASA astronauts (from left) Christina Koch, Nick Hague and Andrew Morgan gather for a portrait inside the International Space Station's "window to the world," the seven-windowed cupola, as the SpaceX Dragon cargo craft approaches the orbiting lab on July 27.

A new commercial crew docking port is in position on the International Space Station ready for installation during Wednesday's spacewalk. Russia is also counting down to the launch of an unpiloted Soyuz spacecraft to the orbiting lab just a few hours after tomorrow's spacewalk.

The Expedition 60 crew was asleep when the Canadarm2 robotic arm grappled and removed the International Docking Adapter-3 (IDA-3) from the rear of the SpaceX Dragon cargo craft. Robotics controllers then remotely guided the IDA-3 to the Harmony module's space-facing port and inspected it with the Canadarm2.

Spacewalkers Nick Hague and Andrew Morgan will set their spacesuits to battery power Wednesday at 8:20 a.m. EDT and exit the Quest airlock to finish installing the IDA-3. The duo will spend about six and a half hours routing cables and configuring the station's second Boeing and SpaceX crew vehicle docking port. NASA TV is broadcasting live the spacewalk starting Wednesday at 6:30 a.m. See an animation of their planned activities.

Commander Alexey Ovchinin with Flight Engineers Christina Koch and Luca Parmitano familiarized themselves with tomorrow's spacewalk procedures. Koch also prepared Hague and Andrew's installation tools and set up the IDA-3 control panel.

Parmitano moved on and continued researching cell differentiation for the Micro-15 investigation. Afterward, he photographed biofilm samples in the Kubik incubator for the BioRock space mining study that explores how microbes interact with rocks.

The Soyuz MS-14 spacecraft is standing at its launch pad in Kazakhstan preparing for a liftoff just a few hours after Hague and Morgan finish their spacewalk. The unpiloted vehicle will blast off Wednesday at 11:38 p.m. EDT and test its 2.1a booster segment during ascent. The Soyuz spacecraft will automatically dock to the station's Poisk module on Saturday at 1:30 a.m.

NASA astronauts (from left) Andrew Morgan and Nick Hague pose with the spacesuits they will wear during a six-and-a-half-hour spacewalk to install the International Docking Adapter-3.

NASA astronauts Nick Hague and Andrew Morgan, assigned as flight engineers for Expedition 60 aboard the International Space Station, will begin a planned six-and-a-half-hour spacewalk from inside the Quest airlock about 8:20 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 21. Live NASA Television coverage will begin at 6:30 a.m. The duo will assist in the installation of International Docking Adapter-3 (IDA-3) to Pressurized Mating Adapter-3 on the space-facing side of the station's Harmony module.

NASA experts provided an overview of the spacewalk activities in a Friday, Aug. 16.

IDA-3 will provide a second docking port to the International Space Station to accommodate the future arrivals of Boeing CST-100 Starliner and SpaceX Crew Dragon commercial crew spacecraft. The docking port was launched to the station last month on a SpaceX Dragon on the company's 18th commercial cargo resupply services mission to the station. IDA-2 was installed to the forward end of the Harmony module in the summer of 2016.

NASA's commercial crew partnership with Boeing and SpaceX will restore launches of American astronauts from American soil on American rockets and maximize the time U.S. crews can dedicate to scientific research and technological advances aboard the orbiting laboratory to enable the agency's ambitious goals for the Artemis lunar exploration program and future missions to the Moon and Mars. Regular human space transportation to the space station is a critical step to opening the space station for commercial business to enable the growth of the U.S. commercial space sector and the development of a robust low-Earth orbit economy.

Астронавты США выйдут в открытый космос для установки на МКС стыковочного адаптера

Москва. 21 августа. INTERFAX.RU - Американские астронавты Ник Хейг и Эндрю Морган в среду выйдут в открытый космос с борта Международной космической станции (МКС) для монтажа на ней нового стыковочного адаптера для приема пилотируемых кораблей, сообщает Национальное управление по аэронавтике и исследованию космического пространства США (NASA).

Адаптер IDA-3, который будет установлен на верхнем стыковочном узле американского модуля Harmony, предназначен для расширения возможностей МКС по приему новых коммерческих пилотируемых кораблей ST-100 Starliner и Crew Dragon компаний Boeing и Space X. Адаптер был доставлен на станцию в конце июля американским грузовым кораблем Cargo Dragon. Летом 2016 года на переднем стыковочном узле модуля Harmony уже был установлен аналогичный адаптер - IDA-2.

Выход астронавтов за пределы МКС, который продлится около 6,5 часов, планируется начать 08:20 по времени восточного побережья США (15:20 мск).

Это будет 218-й выход в открытый космос членов экипажа МКС. В текущем году астронавты уже трижды побывали за бортом станции, в том числе дважды в марте, а также в апреле. Российские космонавты выходили в открытый космос с МКС один раз - в конце мая.

По сообщению NASA, планируется, что в предстоящие четыре-шесть месяцев американские астронавты совершат еще несколько выходов в открытый космос, в том числе для замены аккумуляторов солнечных батарей станции и спектрометра.

В настоящее время на борту станции находится экипаж в составе россиян Алексея Овчинина и Александра Скворцова, американцев Ника Хейга, Кристины Кох и Эндрю Моргана, также и итальянца Луки Пармитано, представляющего Европейское космическое агентство.

An uncrewed Russian Soyuz spacecraft is set to launch from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan on Wednesday, Aug. 21, at 11:38 p.m. EDT (8:38 a.m. Aug. 22 Baikonur time) on a test flight to validate the spacecraft's compatibility with a revamped Soyuz booster rocket. The booster will be used to transport crews to the International Space Station beginning in spring 2020.

Live coverage of the launch, docking and undocking of the spacecraft will air on NASA Television and the agency's website.

The Soyuz MS-14 spacecraft will lift off from Site 31 at the Cosmodrome on a Soyuz 2.1a booster, which has been used recently to launch uncrewed Russian Progress cargo resupply missions to the space station.

Two days later, on Saturday, Aug. 24, at 1:30 a.m., the Soyuz will navigate to an automated docking on the station's space-facing Poisk module.

The Soyuz 2.1a booster, equipped with a new digital flight control system and upgraded engines, is replacing the Soyuz FG booster that has been used for decades to launch crews into space. The Soyuz spacecraft will have an upgraded motion control and navigation system, as well as a revamped descent control system.

Instead of crew members, the Soyuz will carry 1,450 pounds of cargo to the Expedition 60 crew currently residing on the orbital outpost.

After a two-week stay at the station, the Soyuz will be commanded to undock from the station on Friday, Sept. 6, at 2:13 p.m.

TV coverage of the launch, docking, and undocking activities is as follows (all times EDT):

...
