NASA ISS On-Orbit Status 12 February 2011
All ISS systems continue to function nominally, except those noted previously or below. Saturday – Crew rest day.
FE-4 Kondratyev conducted the regular daily early-morning check of the aerosol filters at the Russian Elektron O2 generator which Maxim Suraev had installed on 10/19/09 in gaps between the BZh Liquid Unit and the oxygen outlet pipe (filter FA-K) plus hydrogen outlet pipe (filter FA-V). [Before sleeptime, Dmitri will inspect the filters again, currently a daily requirement per plan, with photographs to be taken if the filter packing is discolored.]
Kelly, Kaleri, Skripochka, Kondratyev, Nespoli & Coleman completed the regular weekly three-hour task of thorough cleaning of their home, including COL (Columbus Orbital Laboratory) and Kibo JPM (JEM Pressurized Module). [“Uborka”, usually done on Saturdays, includes removal of food waste products, cleaning of compartments with vacuum cleaner, damp cleaning of the SM (Service Module) dining table, other frequently touched surfaces and surfaces where trash is collected, as well as the sleep stations with a standard cleaning solution; also, fan screens and grilles are cleaned to avoid temperature rises. Special cleaning is also done every 90 days on the HEPA (high-efficiency particulate air) bacteria filters in the Lab.]
At ~8:00am EST, the crew conducted their regular WPC (Weekly Planning Conference) with the ground, discussing next week’s “Look-Ahead Plan” (prepared jointly by MCC-H and TsUP-Moscow timeline planners), via S-band/audio, reviewing upcoming activities and any concerns about future on-orbit events.
FE-2 Skripochka terminated the recharge on the 2nd pack of 825M3 EVA batteries, then initiated the process on the 3rd battery unit, intended for the new Russian experiment Radioskaf.
After turning off the MPI Multifunction Indicator Panel in the MRM2 Poisk module, FE-1 Kaleri removed and replaced the TVU Terminal Computing Device. MPI was then activated again. [Because of an issue with the TVU in MRM2 and a mechanical problem with the “hatch closed” sensor, Soyuz TMA-18/22S undocking on 9/24/2010 had been by several hours.]
Continuing preparations for the EVA-28 spacewalk on 2/16, Kondratyev installed the BNP portable repress tank in the DC1 for making up cabin pressure after the DC1/airlock losses.
Dmitri & Oleg also equipped the BRTA radio telemetry units of their spacesuits with fresh batteries.
For their VolSci (Voluntary Weekend Science) program, Coleman & Nespoli had chosen a session with “3D Space”. Nespoli set up, checked out and conducted his 2nd test run with the French/CNES neuroscientific research experiment “3D-Space” (SAP) as Subject #8, while free-floating, using the ESA MPPL (Multipurpose Laptop) with a prepared HDD (Hard Disk Drive), data storage on a PCMCIA memory card, and an electronic pen table connected to it. Afterwards, Coleman, who took photographs of Paolo, also performed her 2nd 3D-Space (SAP) experiment session, as Subject #9. [3D Space, which involves distance, writing and illusion exercises, is designed to test the hypothesis that altered visual perception affects motor control. To do this, the subject is asked to reproduce shapes or text on an electronic pen tablet (Wacom Intuos3 A4) which allows researchers to record and analyze the reactions both on earth and in space.]
Paolo started the first day of his 2nd SOLO (Sodium Loading in Microgravity) session, which entails a series of diet intake loggings, body mass measurements and blood & urine samplings in two session blocks. [SOLO is composed of two sessions of six days each. From Day 1 to 5 (included) Paolo will have to eat special diet (Session 1: High salt diet which corresponds to normal ISS diet salt level and Session 2: Low salt diet). Solo Diet starts with breakfast on Day 1. Day 6 of each session is diet-free. For both diets, specially prepared meals are provided onboard. All three daily meals are being logged on sheets stowed in the PCBA (Portable Clinical Blood Analyzer) Consumable Kit in the MELFI (Minus-Eighty Laboratory Freezer for ISS) along with control solution and cartridges for the PCBA. SOLO, an ESA/German experiment from the DLR Institute of Aerospace Medicine in Cologne/Germany, investigates the mechanisms of fluid and salt retention in the body during long-duration space flight. Body mass is measured with the SLAMMD (Space Linear Acceleration Mass Measurement Device). Blood samples are taken with the PCBA. Background: The hypothesis of an increased urine flow as the main cause for body mass decrease has been questioned in several recently flown missions. Data from the US SLS1/2 missions as well as the European/Russian Euromir `94 & MIR 97 missions show that urine flow and total body fluid remain unchanged when isocaloric energy intake is achieved. However, in two astronauts during these missions the renin-angiotensin system was considerably activated while plasma ANP concentrations were decreased. Calculation of daily sodium balances during a 15-day experiment of the MIR 97 mission (by subtracting sodium excretion from sodium intake) showed an astonishing result: the astronaut retained on average 50 mmol sodium daily in space compared to balanced sodium in the control experiment.]
Oleg Skripochka conducted the routine daily servicing of the SOZh system (Environment Control & Life Support System, ECLSS) in the SM. [Regular daily SOZh maintenance consists, among else, of checking the ASU toilet facilities, replacement of the KTO & KBO solid waste containers, replacement of EDV-SV waste water and EDV-U urine containers and filling EDV-SV, KOV (for Elektron), EDV-ZV & EDV on RP flow regulator.]
Throughout the day, Cady Coleman took a number of Makita power tool batteries through the discharge/recharge reconditioning cycle.
The crewmembers worked out with their regular 2-hr physical exercise on the TVIS treadmill (CDR, FE-1, FE-2, FE-4), ARED advanced resistive exerciser (CDR, FE-2, FE-4, FE-5, FE-6), T2/COLBERT advanced treadmill (FE-5, FE-6) and VELO ergometer bike with bungee cord load trainer (FE-1).
At ~11:25am EST, Paolo Nespoli had his weekly PFC (Private Family Conference) via S-band/audio and Ku-band/MS-NetMeeting application (which displays the uplinked ground video on an SSC laptop).

CFE-2 (Capillary Flow Experiment 2): As of 2/9, MSG has downloaded roughly 547 CCF data files containing approximately 228,000 processed images. The original goal for CCF operations was to generate approximately 10,000 data points. CCF anticipated operating in the automatic mode but they have decided that the automatic mode is either not possible or not trustworthy so they will confine their experiment operations to the manual mode. CCF will concentrate on data points around the critical values in terms of flow rate and channel length and they are confident that they can accomplish their science goals with approximately 1,000 data points. CCF is scheduled to be removed from the MSG Work Volume for the MSG yearly recertification in the 3/16-18 timeframe. CCF is confident that they can accomplish the desired number of experiment data points by the middle of March if there are no new issues that cause them to lose operating time. The CCF team is very grateful for the great opportunity to work in space on the International Space Station, and they are surprised and pleased about the speed of the signal transmission and the good quality of the downlink video.

CubeLab: “We had three data collection activities this week: 2/7, 2/9, 2/11. The first two data collections were nominal and the PD was very happy with the files downlinked from station. The data collection activity today did not produce any photos. There are two possible causes for this. First, a reboot of the laptop while connected to the Cube Lab Frame caused the payload to initialize a new connection, deleting the existing files. If this is the case, there is not a loss of science because all files are backed up on an external SD card within the payload. The second possibility is that the payload was in a bad state and not taking photos. We have performed a power cycle of the payload, and this should have reset it. If this is the case, and the next data collection is nominal, the science can be recovered. We will continue nominal data collection Monday, 2/14.”

CEO (Crew Earth Observation): Through 2/9 the ground has received 14,936 of ISS CEO frames for review and cataloging. “We are pleased to report your acquisition of the following targets with a times corresponding to that of our daily CEO Target Request list: West Cuba – several short-lens context views were received in two short sessions – we will continue to seek detailed views of this target area; Beijing, China at night – several best-ever views of this target were acquired; Managua, Nicaragua – several context views were acquired, but included more clouds than we anticipated; Dakar, Senegal – several high resolution, partial views were acquired – we will continue to request views that contain this target in a single frame; Asmara, Eritrea -under review; and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil – several high-resolution, partial views acquired – we will continue to request views that contain this target in a single frame. Your striking visual of the man-made islands of Durrat Al Bahrain, Bahrain on the Persian Gulf was published on NASA/GSFC’s Earth Observatory website this past weekend. This detailed, nicely composed image documents the wonder of large-scale human structures as viewed from space. Nice shot!”
CEO targets uplinked for today were Mbabane, Swaziland (ISS had a mid-morning pass in fair weather to attempt to acquire this small capital city of about 95,000 in the tiny, land-locked nation of Swaziland. Approach is from the NW with few visual cues to help locate this challenging target lying just left of track. Trying for an overlapping mapping strip of the rugged area of Mbabane in an area of timber plantations and cuttings), N. Glaciers of S. Patagonian Ice Field (weather was expected to be fair enough for views of this target area as ISS approached from the WNW at midday. The Southern Patagonian Ice Field is the larger of South America’s two major ice fields and situated just inland at the crest of the Andes Mountains with glaciers reaching the Pacific in extensive fjords. Looking from near-nadir to acquire detailed views of the smaller, less-well photographed glaciers of the north end of the ice field. CEO views are used to monitor changes in size and texture of these beautiful glaciers), and Grecian Cities at Night (there is very nice break in the cloudy winter weather pattern over southeastern Europe that will offer good nighttime views on this pass of: the cities of Greece, the remainder of the Balkan Peninsula, and even western Turkey. As ISS tracked northeastward over the Mediterranean Sea at this time, the crew was to begin looking anywhere from nadir to well-left of track for any brighter, major city targets they can acquire, especially Athens, Thessaloniki, and Istanbul over the next 2 minutes).
