Electro-static Levitation Furnace: The ELF cartridge containing the latest melted sample "UYNA" was removed and replaced with the "Interfacial Energy" sample holder.
Genomic Enumeration of Antibiotic Resistance in Space: Bacterial samples were collected and transferred to the GEARS Media Plate.
ISS Ham Radio: ISS Ham contact was made with Mountain View Elementary, Marietta, GA. More information on this experiment can be found here.
NRCSD is a self-contained CubeSat deployer system for small satellites staged from the ISS. The NRCSD utilizes the ISS Japanese Experiment Module as a staging facility for operation.
TPS inspections are performed on returning vehicles prior to undock from the ISS to ensure the vehicle is in a good configuration for re-entry.
Robotics Proficiency On Board Training: The crew reviewed the robotics OBT self-study session today.
Environmental Health System Surface Sample Kit Collection/Incubation: Samples for microbial analysis were taken from ISS surfaces using the Surface Sample Kit.
These samples will be incubated on media slides and in Petri dishes, giving medical personnel a gauge of microbial growth on surfaces of the ISS. The EHS monitors the atmosphere for gaseous contaminants from nonmetallic materials off-gassing, combustion products, and propellants, microbial contaminants from crew members and Station activities, water quality, acoustics, and radiation levels.
Water Resources and Management Condensate Sample: The crew collected a condensate sample from the Condensate Sample Port at the Water Recovery System-2 Utility Interface Panel.
The WRM is used for water venting, water transfer activities, waste disposal, and water sampling for the USOS. Look Ahead Plan.
