With this week (June 9 to June 13) Expected to arrive at a visit to the crew before their launching louder in international space. Expedition 73 codunes have time to reflect on their maintenance work and mark personal and national milestones in their seventh week of orbit.
Observing orbital
“Space is one of the humble surroundings I have run,” said the expedition 73 flight engineer Jonny kimthat before becoming an astronaut a US navy stamp and a medical doctor.
Kim on Thursday (June 12) wrote on social media About his experience working behind international racks in the Spef Space size to clean air filters, checking the lab network seals. Despite the help of mission control guarding his work through live Vife views, it can be difficult to track all parts, Kim found.
“Something I appreciate to keep space is the amount of gravity that helps things in which they belong.
SCIENCE RIGHT
Among the research made by Space Station this week:
Ultrasound 2 – Anne McClain and Nichole Myers in Naka joined the expedition 73 Commander Takuya Onishi in Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (Jaxa) To use this biomedical device to undergo their first set of eye exams. Works with a doctor on the ground, scans are determining if the space of the astronauts in the space affects the structure of their eyes.
Solid test experiment module – Onhias also replaced the sample cartridges for a continued experimental fire in Japanese laboratory, addressing spacecraft safety and wherever astraunuts.
Flight Engineer Kirill Peskov in Russian Space Agency Roscosmos continued to set up cameras to remove landmarks across Asia and Europe as the co-cosmonaut Alexey Zubritskiy settled equipment caused by Solar Flares And Gamma-ray is burning an effort to find out if you have a spacecraft effect.
Press the station
In addition to Kim’s work to move air filters and chipsets, the crew also offered time to maintain system station, including:
Enhanced European Exploration Eventive Device (E4D) – Onishi and Kim add grease to the closet checked for the possible use of it in the future missions of the moon. The E4D provides crew members with the same type of exercises as if they were bicycling, rowing and using resistive devices, such as rope pulling and climbing.
Waste and compart cleanliness – Works in the clear 3 modules, McCipe moved to tanks for the US bath.
Extravecular mobilis unit (EMU) – Inside Airlock search, ayers have served in the USA in the US Spacesuits. He immediately cleaned and documents metal oxide vessels used to scrub carbon dioxide from extravyhicular mobilization unit (EMU) during Spacewalks.
Other jobs include monitoring decibel level at station, evaluated the station’s water quality and halts clears of floating debris.
Astronaut activity
Expedition 73 The Flight Engineer and Astronaut Anne McClegel marking two birthdays this week.
First, on Saturday (June 7) he celebrated his own 46th revolution around the sun. Here he shows the cards, gifts and a cake presented to him on his tripunts. Happy birthday, Anne !!
After Thursday (June 12), he talked to Dan Driscoll. Secretary of the US Army, to mark the 250 Army anniversaryConstruction. McClain is an active colonel of service.
“Thank you for your army service and for all our soldiers there who celebrated our 250th birthday in our strange United States, thanks for your service,” he said. “I am proud to represent the Army, which is really soldiers, leaders and problems with the problem.”
Waylaid visitors
Ryzhikov started the week inspiring hatching seals in the Space Station section. That the work further informs a continued concern about The Air Leaks Ranging from the Roscosma service service module.
While leaking stopped, in and Axiom Space Decided on Thursday (June 12) to Arise FROM AXIOM MISSION 4 (AX-4) CREW to provide more time to think of further fixation of the station.
A new date of launch for former astronaut Peggy Whiton With a crew of three astronauts from India, Hungary and Poland are still determined.
By numbers
Up to Friday (June 13), have 7 people onboard the International Space Station: Commander Takuya Onhia in Jaxa, Anne McClain, Nichole Kim in NASA and Kirill Peskov, Sergey Rubritsky of Roscosmos.
there Two docked crew spacecraft: ExcokeThe dragon “safety” attached to the Port of Harmony Module, and Roscosmos’ Soyuz MS-27 included in the Port of land in Prochal Node.
There is also Two docked cargo spacecraft: Proscosmos’ TanSess MS-29 (90p) attached to the Poisk-facing port port in Poisk Module and MS-30 (91p) enhancement attached to the Aft Port of Zvezda Service Module.
Up to Friday, the Space Station continues to be attached 24 years, 7 months and 12 days.
