Preparing for the arrival of a visit to the crew, the continued study of the microgradvity systems and the Europeans orbit documentation on the Europeans maintained seven astronauts and cosmonauts in International Space Station (ISS) This week is busy (June 2 to June 6), the sixth week of expedition 73.
Observing orbital
“I noticed the smoke in northern US and Canada a few days ago, and it took a long time to know what it was. From our sight Nicholer Ayers, an astronaut ayers, wrote X On June 3 after the smoke wiping from Canadian wildfires causing evacuations of provinces and affected air quality in many US states.
“The brown hue in the clouds and the fact that they overlay the white clouds get my eye. I tried to get it everyday to understand the activity of smoke.” Ayers wrote.
SCIENCE RIGHT
Among the research made by Space Station this week:
Bio-Monitor – Within two days this week, Astronaut Jonny Kim wears the Canadian instrument to see if his health data collects and does not interrupt other activities.
Virthutal – The Cosmaaut Alaxey Alaxey Zubritskiy, helped by Sergey Ryzhikov, donate to a pair of VR Goggles as part of a vestibular system study at Microgrgevivey to visual trace action while continuing feeling of balance.
Sin is brain 2.0 – Expedition 73 Commander Takuya Onhida of Jaxa (Japan Aerospace Explorenation Agency) measured blood from his brain in his heart using electrodes from this fast screening tool, which helps prevent screening clots while in space.
Elvis – Ayers worked in many immolal volumeric imliarter systems, a 3D microscope hidden in the Jaxa’s body laboratory, which he used to care for the samples of sea bacteria. Demo can lead to use of similar device to identify possible contagious organisms in space water supplies and WORLD.
Zubritskiy spent a week this week documenting the landmarks in the east while Kirill Peskov took pictures of human and human disasters.
Press the station
The crew also devoted time to maintain system space station, including:
town center – Ayers and with astronaut Anne McCnelin transferred hardware aboard Bigelow an increased activity modulethat served as a “float-in” wardrobe for the station since installed and extended in 2016.
Spaceborne Computer-2 – Kim replaces a processor cartridge for this commercial off-the-shelf computer, checked for the ability to analyze research without needing land support.
PCBA – McClain updated firmware for portable clinical blood analyzer, a unit driven used to quickly attempt blood samples for many research studies held in ISS.
Astropi – Kim also moves this computer controlled camera from a window inside the UNITY module in a different window within the European Space AgencyColumbus module in ESA) Columbus. Students who use a pair of these cameras for engineering and science projects.
Ryzhikov also cleaned a chief fan and filled a tank oxygen generator to PROGRESS MS-29 (90p) Cargo spacecraft as well as assisted Zubritskiy in the work to service a neutron radiation detector in the Russian segment of the space station.
Astronaut activity
In addition to the details of the above work, McClein works in Sofie-Gabon.
“Sofie-Mist stands for solid ignition of gasoline and test material and attempt to control material,” he wrote to a June 6 x Post. “Mist consists of a small-scale combustion wind tunnel, cylindrical fuel sample, an igniter, radiant heaters, and instrumentation. By varying parameters like air flow speed, oxygen, and level of external radiation, we can better Characterize Early Behavior of Fire. This helps US choose Better materials for use in space, and it helps determine the best methods of extinguishing spaces. “
“This week, I changed fuel and igniter samples for the next science run.”
Make space for guests
Expedition 73 Crew activities this week also includes preparation for the arrival of short term visitors: Axiom SpaceThe Fourth Commercial Commercial Mission of the International Space Station is set to arrive at a SpaceX Dragon Spacecraft on Wednesday (June 11), by passing an hour to launch the previous day.
Former astronaut Peggy Whiton lead the AX-4 Crew, which includes Pilot Shubhanshu Shukla of India and Mission Specialists Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski of Poland (and Esa) and Tibor Kapu of Hungary.
The crew of the station checked the AX-4 plan with land managers while McClele and Ayers, assigned to approach the dragon from the inside of the station, succeeded in the port methods. Both uses a computer to review situations they can handle if the dragon approaches the orbiting complex.
Onhich checks the tablet computers to use by Whiton, Shuki, Uznański-Wiśniewski and for their two-week research on Science Research.
By numbers
Up to Friday (June 6), have 7 people Aboard The International Space Station: Commander Takuya Onishi of Jaxa, Anne McClain, Nichole Ayers and Jonny Kim of Nasa and Kirill Peskov, Sergey Ryzhikov and Alexey Zubritsky of Roscosmosall flight engineers.
there Two docked crew spacecraft: The dragon’s dragon “endurance” attached to the Port port in the module module, and Roscosmos’ Soyuz MS-27 attached to the Port of land at Prochal Node.
There is also Two docked cargo spacecraft: The Rosocmos program of MS-29 (90p) attached to the Poisk-facing port port in the Poisk module and MS-30 (91p) development attached to the Aft Port of Zvezda Service Module.
Up to Friday, the Space Station continues to be attached 24 years, 7 months and 5 days.
