Space Botany and Cell Gravity Studies
OHara later worked on an area botany research study to promote STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) education amongst tribal members. Furukawa turned off a microscopic lense in the Kibo laboratory module and eliminated samples for a study that was observing how cells notice gravity or the lack gravity.

Russian Cosmonauts Activities
In the Roscosmos sector of the space station, veteran cosmonaut Oleg Kononenko invested the day inside the Nauka science module checking its airlock, docking, and ventilation systems. Flight Engineer Nikolai Chub connected sensing units to himself monitoring his cardiac activity then cleaned up air ducts inside the Nauka and Poisk modules. Flight Engineer Konstantin Borisov used a sensor-packed cap that taped his reactions while practicing futuristic planetary and robotic piloting methods on a computer.
ISS Anniversary
On November 20, the International Space Station passed 25 years considering that the first module introduced into orbit. The Zarya module took off in November 1998 from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan and would quickly be signed up with by the Unity module less than a month later. Through this worldwide venture, 273 individuals from 21 countries now have checked out the distinct microgravity laboratory that has actually hosted more than 3,000 research and instructional examinations from people in 108 locations and countries.
Mogensen from ESA (European Space Agency) then took turns with flight engineers Loral OHara, Jasmin Moghbeli, and Satoshi Furukawa in the Columbus laboratory module participating in the regularly set up eye exams.

Space biology and Dragon work were the top responsibilities at the start of the week for the Expedition 70 crew. The International Space Station (ISS) likewise turned 25 years of ages today with its first module having actually orbited Earth given that 1998.
Biomedical Research and Eye Exams
Eye scans were on the biomedical research study schedule for four astronauts on Monday afternoon. Leader Andreas Mogensen began the examinations activating the Ultrasound 2 gadget and after that establishing interactions gear allowing doctors on the ground to remotely monitor the activities. Mogensen from ESA (European Space Agency) then took turns with flight engineers Loral OHara, Jasmin Moghbeli, and Satoshi Furukawa in the Columbus laboratory module taking part in the routinely arranged eye exams.

Dragon Endurance Training and Maintenance
Mogensen partnered with Moghbeli from NASA at the end of the day and practiced SpaceX Dragon Endurance undocking and landing procedures on the crew spacecrafts computer systems. Mogensen earlier unpacked medical supply packages from Endurance and stowed them inside the orbital station. OHara from NASA and Furukawa from JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) worked inside Endurance as well setting up orbital plumbing gear in the automobile that has actually been docked to the station given that August 27.
