Veggie PONDS Validation: The crew completed a reservoir fill on the Veggie Ponds facility. Organisms grow differently in space, from single-celled bacteria to plants and humans. Future long-duration space missions will require crewmembers to grow their own food. Understanding how plants respond to microgravity and demonstrating the reliable vegetable production on orbit are important steps …

Treadmill 2 (T2) Mechanical Issues and False Fire: During a T2 session this morning, the crew reported that the belt slowed dramatically, a grinding noise was heard, and the T2 Smoke Detector triggered a fire alarm.  Air measurements confirmed this to be a false fire event and investigation by the crew confirmed that the T2 …
RR-12, Tetanus Antibody Response by B cells in Space (TARBIS), examines the effects

Fluid Shifts (Chibis): A crewmember performed the first of two days of Lower Body Negative Pressure (LBNP) data collection. This week, two crewmembers will each perform two days of LBNP data collection. Although issues were reported with data collection for the Cerebral and Cochlear Fluid Pressure (CCFP) tympanometry, this is used to support interpretation of …

Fluids Integrated Rack (FIR)/Light Microscopy Module (LMM)/Biophysics-6:  At the conclusion of the LMM Bio-6 run, which began on 18-April, the crew removed the sample plate from the FIR/LMM and stowed it for return. Science teams reported they have not seen the expected crystal growth, but did see some areas with a precipitate and will perform …

Solidification Using Baffles in Sealed Ampoules SUBSA): The crew de-installed the SUBSA hardware facility from the Microgravity Science Glovebox (MSG) work volume. The objective of the SUBSA investigation is to advance understanding of the processes involved in semiconductor crystal growth. It offers a gradient freeze furnace for materials science investigations that can reach 850°C. Samples …
