Combustion Integrated Rack (CIR) Advanced Combustion via Microgravity Experiments (ACME) Electric-Field Effects on Laminar Diffusion (E-Field) Flames:  The crew replaced the compensator module in the CIR Hi Bit-depth Multi-Spectral (HiBMS) Imaging package today.  This is in preparation for the upcoming ACME E-Field Flames investigation. The ACME investigation is a set of five independent studies of …
Electrostatic Levitation Furnace (ELF): Today the crew took photographs of Sample

BioFabrication Facility (BFF) Test Print:  Today the crew installed the test print cassette, performed a syringe swap, then removed the test print cassette following the BFF printing ops. This was done in support of the first test print using cells in the BFF. During the ground-commanded BFF operations, there was an accidental release of the …
Electrostatic Levitation Furnace (ELF) Controller Installation: The crew performed

Payloads Astrobee: The crew powered up the Astrobee free flyers and cleared away and stowed items within the JEM module in preparation for Astrobee flyer operations. Astrobee is made up of three free-flying, cube-shaped robots which are designed to help scientists and engineers develop and test technologies for use in microgravity to assist astronauts with …
Electro-static Levitation Furnace (ELF): The crew installed the Round Robin #2 Sample

82 Progress (82P) Docking: Following the completion of a 34-orbit rendezvous, 82P successfully docked to the ISS Poisk Mini-Research Module 2 (MRM-2) Zenith port yesterday at 9:49 PM CT. The crew then performed leak checks, opened hatches, and began unloading cargo. Carrying food, fuel, and supplies, 82P launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome on Tuesday, October …

Payloads AC Touch: Per standard procedure, the crew touched both the coated and uncoated coupons for this long-term investigation. Boeing Environment Responding Antimicrobial Coatings tests is an antimicrobial coating on several different materials that represent high-touch surfaces. Some microbes change characteristics in microgravity, which could create new risks to crew health and spacecraft systems as …
ELF (Electrostatic Levitation Furnace): The crew performed the steps necessary to

Exposed Facility Unit (EFU) Adapter Transfer: Overnight ground controllers maneuvered the Japanese Experiment Module (JEM) Robotic Manipulator System (RMS) Small Fine Arm (SFA) to a position to remove the EFU Adapter from the EFU-5 location.  Once the EFU Adapter was removed, it was transferred and installed onto the JEM Airlock (JEMAL) Slide Table. The slide …
Electrostatic Levitation Furnace (ELF) Sample Holder Exchange: The crew performed

Payloads: Astrobee: The Astrobee systems were powered on and stowage in the area cleared away to allow the performance of free-flight maneuvers.  This type of activity is commonly called “crew minimal” and the goal is for the ground to command the Astrobee units and their dock to complete the objectives for the session.  Astrobee is …
Electrostatic Levitation Furnace (ELF): The crew exchanged sample holder 2 in the

Payloads: Airborne Particulate Monitor (APM):  A crewmember removed the SD Card from APM, transferred its data to an SSC laptop, and re-insert the SD Card back into APM.  Air quality in crewed spacecraft is important for keeping astronauts healthy and comfortable. Although requirements exist for maximum allowable concentrations of particulate matter, currently no measurement capability …
Electro-static Levitation Furnace (ELF): Four cables between the ELF, Work Volume

Payloads: BioFabrication Facility (BFF): In order to put the tissue cassette in a good configuration, the crew removed the curing lid and installed the print lid. Using 3D biological printers to produce usable human organs has long been a dream of scientists and doctors around the globe. However, printing the tiny, complex structures found inside …
Electrostatic Levitation Furnace (ELF): The crew performed the steps necessary to

X2R21 Transition Activities: As part of the X2R21 software updates occurring this week, ground teams loaded and transitioned the S3 and P3 Multiplexer/Demultiplexers (MDMs) to S3P3 R7 and installed the CCS R21 Timeliner bundle to the primary Command and Control (C&C) MDM. Today’s activities concluded the X2R21 software transition, and the ISS is now using …
