NASA ISS On-Orbit Status 9 November 2011
Also at wake-up, Volkov terminated his 6th experiment session, started last night, for the long-term Russian sleep study MBI-12/Sonokard, taking the recording device from his Sonokard sports shirt pocket and later copying the measurements to the RSE-Med laptop for subsequent downlink to the ground. [Sonokard objectives are stated to (1) study the feasibility of obtaining the maximum of data through computer processing of records obtained overnight, (2) systematically record the crewmember's physiological functions during sleep, (3) study the feasibility of obtaining real-time crew health data. Investigators believe that contactless acquisition of cardiorespiratory data over the night period could serve as a basis for developing efficient criteria for evaluating and predicting adaptive capability of human body in long-duration space flight.] CDR Fossum performed the (currently) daily check of the running BCAT-6 (Binary Colloidal Alloy Test-6)-Phase Separation experiment for camera & flashlight battery charge and again 8 hrs later at midday and before sleeptime. The Nikon D2Xs camera with EarthKAM software running with the Intervalometer on SSC-18 is taking automated flash photography. [The camera is running for a total of 7 days, taking one photo each hour of Sample 2 (since 11/2). Camera battery change and Intervalometer restart is done three times a day. Objective of BCAT-6-Phase Separation: to gain unique insights into how gas and liquid phases separate and come together in microgravity. These fundamental studies on the underlying physics of fluids could provide the understanding needed to enable the development of less expensive, longer shelf-life household products, foods, and medicines.] Volkov configured the hardware for the Russian MBI-21 PNEVMOKARD experiment, then conducted the 1h5m session, his 6th, which forbids moving or talking during data recording. The experiment is controlled from the RSE-med A31p laptop and uses the TENZOPLUS sphygmomanometer to measure arterial blood pressure. The experiment was then closed out and the test data were downlinked via OCA. [PNEVMOKARD (Pneumocard) attempts to obtain new scientific information to refine the understanding about the mechanisms used by the cardiorespiratory system and the whole body organism to spaceflight conditions. By recording (on PCMCIA cards) the crewmember's electrocardiogram, impedance cardiogram, low-frequency phonocardiogram (seismocardiogram), pneumotachogram (using nose temperature sensors), and finger photoplethismogram, the experiment supports integrated studies of (1) the cardiovascular system and its adaptation mechanisms in various phases of a long-duration mission, (2) the synchronization of heart activity and breathing factors, as well as the cardiorespiratory system control processes based on the variability rate of physiological parameters, and (3) the interconnection between the cardiorespiratory system during a long-duration mission and the tolerance of orthostatic & physical activities at the beginning of readaptation for predicting possible reactions of the crewmembers organism during the their return to ground.] Sergey also completed his 2nd preliminary orthostatic hemodynamic endurance test run with the Russian Chibis suit in preparation for his return to gravity on 11/22 with Soyuz 27S (along with Mike Fossum & Satoshi Furukawa), conducting the ODNT exercise protocol in the below-the-waist reduced-pressure device (ODNT, US: LBNP/Lower Body Negative Pressure) on the TVIS treadmill. Satoshi acted as CMO (Crew Medical Officer for FE-4 as Subject. Sergey was supported in his one-hour session by ground specialist tagup via VHF at 4:35am EST. [The Chibis provides gravity-simulating stress to the body's cardiovascular/circulatory system for evaluation of the crewmember's orthostatic tolerance (e.g., the Gauer-Henry reflex) after his long-term stay in zero-G. The preparatory training consists of first imbibing 150-200 milliliters of water or juice, followed by a sequence of progressive regimes of reduced ("negative") pressure, set at -20, -25, -30, and -35 mmHg for five min. each while shifting from foot to foot at 10-12 steps per minute, wearing a sphygmomanometer to measure blood pressure and the REG ShKO Rheoencephalogram Biomed Cap, supported by the Gamma-1M biomed data control system. The body's circulatory system interprets the pressure differential between upper and lower body as a gravity-like force pulling the blood (and other liquids) down. Chibis data and biomed cardiovascular readings are recorded. The Chibis suit (not to be confused with the Russian "Pinguin" suit for spring-loaded body compression, or the "Kentavr" anti-g suit worn during reentry) is similar to the U.S. LBNP facility (not a suit) used for the first time on Skylab in 1973/74, although it appears to accomplish its purpose more quickly.] With the CEVIS (Cycle Ergometer with Vibration Isolation) seat in the Lab adjusted to permit access and the Lab camcorder set up to provide live viewing, Mike Fossum worked on the CIR (Combustion Integrated Rack) to replace its FOMA (Fuel/Oxidizer Management Assembly) Calibration Unit and the CIR IAM F/O (Fiver Optics) Cable #1 between the HiBMS (High Bit-Depth Multi-Spectral) Imaging Package at UML8 and the bottom FCF IPSU (Fluids & Combustion Facility / Image Processing & Storage Unit) at UML5. Following the replacement of the FOMA Cal Unit in support of the CIR's yearly calibration and the replacement of the cable, plans are to return to the last bit of FLEX-2 (Flame Extinguishment Experiment 2) test points. [This was to resolve the issue identified last month of the bottom FCF IPSU at UML5 being unable to acquire images from the CIR HiBMS Imaging Package at UML8 (this pair of packages having been installed already in CIR in support of FLEX). Today's job concerned opening both rack doors, pulling out and rotating the CIR Optics Bench down while disconnecting the MTL (Moderate Temperature Loop), VES (Vacuum Exhaust System) and Station N2 (nitrogen) lines. Next, the FOMA Cal Unit was removed & replaced with a spare, followed by installing the new IAM F/O (Fiber Optic) Cable #1. Lines were then reconnected, and activities were reversed for backing out and closing out.] Satoshi concluded his 4th (and final) 24-hr ICV (Integrated Cardiovascular) Ambulatory Monitoring session, doffing the two Actiwatches and HM2 (Holter Monitor 2) about 24 hrs after the end of yesterday's "midpoint" activity (~9:30am EST). The laptop was then powered off. [For the ICV Ambulatory Monitoring session, during the first 24 hrs (while all devices are worn), ten minutes of quiet, resting breathing are timelined to collect data for a specific analysis.▷▷▷▷▷ Cal Flame Double Access Doors - 30" x 21" | Kitchen
