ISS Report

摘要

On 9 May, the crew had relatively light-duties to celebrate Russian Victory Day. They continued with the third of four days of work with the Fluid Shirts experiment. McClain conducted further research with NASA's Rodent Research-12 investigation by checking on the mice who are being observed for changes to their immune systems in microgravity; Koch devoted a third day to the Kidney Cells study which NASA described as seeking "innovative treatments for humans on Earth and in space". The Orbiting Carbon Observatory-3 (OCO-3) was removed from Dragon's unpressurised trunk and robotically installed on the exterior of the stations Japanese Experiment Module-Exposed Facility at approximately 04:00 UTC on 10 May. Two further days of functional checks took place and OCO-3's Pointing Mirror Assembly (PMA) was deployed. The PMA and OCO-3's context cameras conducted an initial survey of OCO-3's surroundings to ensure nothing unexpected was interfering with its view of Earth to start measuring carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
