\"Expedition<\/a>
Expedition 63 Commander Chris Cassidy services microbial DNA samples for sequencing and identification aboard the space station\u2019s Harmony module.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Expedition 63<\/a> crew, with one U.S. astronaut and two Russian cosmonauts aboard the International Space Station<\/a>, juggled an array of space research and orbital plumbing duties on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Commander Chris Cassidy<\/a> ran several test operations today of the Water Droplet Formation<\/a> experiment that may improve fluid management on spaceships and faucets and showers on Earth. The veteran astronaut also analyzed water samples for microbes and checked on biology<\/a> and robotics<\/a> hardware.<\/p>\n

Cassidy then switched roles from space scientist to high-flying plumber and serviced the station\u2019s restroom, the Waste and Hygiene Compartment, located in the Tranquility module<\/a>. He also exchanged water recovery system pumps inside Japan\u2019s Kibo laboratory module<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Flight Engineer Anatoly Ivanishin<\/a> of Roscosmos spent Wednesday morning working on power and electrical systems in the orbiting lab\u2019s Russian segment. The experienced cosmonaut then moved onto fluid transfers into the Progress 76 resupply ship<\/a> then studied ways improve to interactions<\/a> between mission controllers and space crews.<\/p>\n

Cosmonaut Ivan Vagner<\/a> from Roscosmos started the morning communicating with students<\/a> on Earth using a ham radio. The first-time space flyer then worked the rest of the day on a variety of maintenance tasks including replacing pumps and checking smoke detectors.<\/p>\n
