Robotics, Space Tech and Heart Research Wrap Up Work Week<\/h2>\n

\"Expedition<\/a>
Expedition 63 Commander Chris Cassidy poses with two Astrobee robotic assistants during visual and navigation tests inside the Kibo laboratory module.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A set of free-flying robotic helpers buzzed around the International Space Station<\/a> today for visual tests. Meanwhile, the Expedition 63<\/a> trio conducted a variety of advanced space research and maintained the upkeep of the orbiting lab.<\/p>\n

Astrobee<\/a> is the name given to a trio of small cube-shaped, autonomous robots being tested on the station for its ability to help crews in space. Commander Chris Cassidy<\/a> powered up the robotic assistants this morning and set them free inside Japan\u2019s Kibo lab module<\/a>. Ground engineers are testing Astrobee\u2019s visual and navigation system and watching video streamed from station cameras and from the devices themselves.<\/p>\n

Cassidy then spent the rest of the afternoon tearing down the Packed Bed Reactor Experiment<\/a> that is exploring technology to support water recovery, planetary surface processing and oxygen production. The research hardware observes gas and liquid flows that could inform the optimal design of chemical and biological reactors benefitting Earth and space industries.<\/p>\n

Cardiac research<\/a> is also a space research priority as doctors learn to keep astronauts safe and healthy during long-term exploration missions. Cosmonaut Anatoly Ivanishin<\/a> attached sensors to himself Friday morning to monitor the adaptation of his blood circulation system for the Russian Cardiovector<\/a> study. He then moved on to a technology investigation that observes the magnetic and dynamic forces<\/a> the space station experiences on orbit.<\/p>\n

Flight Engineer Ivan Vagner<\/a> continued the weeklong power connection and life support systems checks. Vagner also was back on photography duty shooting Earth landmarks to help scientists forecast natural and man-made catastrophes<\/a>.<\/p>\n
