ISS Daily Summary Report – 2/01/2023 – ISS On-Orbit Status Report [1]

Fluid Dynamics in Space (FLUIDICS): The crew disconnected and stowed the Fluidics HDD and its cable from the CMAU Z-book laptop. The measurement of liquid displacement within a sphere in microgravity relates to a given kinematic representation of a spacecraft’s fuel tank. The FLUIDICS investigation evaluates the Center of Mass (CoM) position regarding a temperature gradient on a representation of a fuel tank. The observation of capillary wave turbulence on the surface of a fluid layer in a low-gravity environment can provide insights into measuring the existing volume in a sphere.

Sphere Camera-1 (SphereCam-1) : Sphere Cam1 hardware was set up to record video LAB Translation Filming Shot #7. SphereCam-1 uses a commercial off-the-shelf ultra-high resolution digital movie camera with a wide angle lens to collect footage in microgravity and evaluate technical performance of the camera. Investigators plan to use results to design and develop subsequent cameras for testing and, ultimately, provide a product that could support groundbreaking imaging of space with greater resolution, detail, and sharpness than anything currently available commercially.

TangoLab: TangoLab-3 and TangoLab-4 facilities were relocated to ExPRESS Rack 9B (COL1F2). Both facilities were powered up and photos were taken. Space Tango’s TangoLab lockers are reconfigurable general research facilities designed for microgravity research and development (R&D) and pilot manufacturing aboard the ISS.

Veg-05: The plants growing in the two Veggie facilities were inspected, watered if necessary, and photographed. The Pick-and-Eat Salad-Crop Productivity, Nutritional Value, and Acceptability to Supplement the ISS Food System (Veg-05) investigation is the next step in efforts to address the need for a continuous fresh-food production system in space.

Systems:

Extravehicular Activity (EVA) Preparation Activities: The crew continued preparation for the ISS Roll Out Solar Array (IROSA) Prep 1A Troubleshooting EVA later this week. The EVA Mobility Units (EMUs) and Equipment Lock were configured, the EVA Tools were configured and audited inside the Airlock, and the Pistol Grip Tool (PGT) batteries were installed. The EVA D5 and GoPro cameras and the EVA iPad were configured, and the crew reviewed the detailed EVA procedures and participated in a procedure review conference.
