Plants, Bioprinting and Orbital Plumbing Fill Crew\u2019s Thursday Schedule<\/h2>\n

The Expedition 66<\/a> crew split its research schedule between space botany and life science aboard the International Space Station<\/a> today.<\/p>\n

NASA Flight Engineer Thomas Marshburn<\/a> started Thursday watering plants growing for the Veggie PONDS<\/a> study that explores ways to reliably grow vegetables in microgravity. Afterward, the three-time space station visitor verified the operability of the two robotics workstations, located in the U.S. Destiny laboratory module<\/a> and the cupola<\/a>, that control the Canadarm2 robotic arm<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Matthias Maurer<\/a>, flight engineer from ESA (European Space Agency), printed samples from a handheld bioprinter<\/a> for analysis back on Earth. The samples were printed to investigate how to develop tissues in microgravity to advance personalized medicine on Earth and in space.<\/p>\n

The three other NASA Flight Engineers aboard the orbiting lab, Raja Chari<\/a>, and Kayla Barron<\/a>, Mark Vande Hei<\/a>, worked throughout the day on a variety of life support and science maintenance tasks. Chari was on plumbing duty draining and transferring fluids in station tanks. Barron serviced the lab\u2019s exercise cycle<\/a> before replacing components in the waste and hygiene compartment, the station\u2019s bathroom. Vande Hei processed samples for DNA analysis for the Food Physiology<\/a> experiment that documents how diet affects a crew member\u2019s health during a long-term space mission.<\/p>\n

The station\u2019s commander, Anton Shkaplerov<\/a> of Roscosmos, was back on exercise research on Thursday exploring how to maximize the effectiveness of working out in weightlessness. Russian Flight Engineer Pyotr Dubrov<\/a> cleaned up the Zvezda<\/a> and Poisk<\/a> modules, returning them to a post-spacewalk configuration following his excursion with Shkaplerov on Jan. 19<\/a>.<\/p>\n
