Health Checks and Suit Installs Before Thursday Spacewalk for Science Upkeep

Spacewalk preparations continued aboard the International Space Station as two astronauts conducted health checks and installed hardware on their spacesuits. Biology, physics, and lab maintenance also rounded out the Expedition 72 schedule on Tuesday.上海419论坛

Flight Engineer Nick Hague and space station Commander Suni Williams, both from NASA, began their shifts on Tuesday with standard health exams taken prior to the start of a spacewalk爱上海同城交友. The duo measured their vital signs including heart rate, breathing rate, and temperature, and participated in a hearing test上海龙凤419. Next, the two spacewalkers installed lithium-ion batteries and tested electrical and communication components on their spacesuits. Flight Engineer Butch Wilmore also assisted the pair and readied cameras the astronauts will carry with them into the vacuum of space.

Hague and Williams will set their spacesuits to battery power at approximately 8 a.m. EST on Thursday signifying the official start of the first spacewalk of 2025爱上海419论坛. The experienced spacewalkers will exit the Quest airlock and spend about six-and-a-half hours servicing astrophysics hardware including the NICER X-ray telescope and the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer.  Also on the task list, are the replacement of a rate gyro assembly to maintain station orientation and the replacement of a planar reflector to provide navigation data. NASA+ begins its spacewalk coverage at 6:30 a.m上海娱乐网. on Thursday.

Earlier in his shift, Wilmore set up and calibrated genetic sequencing hardware that analyzes station water samples to identify bacteria and fungi species爱上海同城论坛. NASA Flight Engineer Don Pettit started his day on orbital plumbing tasks before removing and processing research samples collected from the Gradient Heating Furnace that enables semiconductor crystal growth research.
