NASA astronaut Heidemarie Stefanyshyn-Piper activates a Salmonella experiment during space shuttle mission STS-115. Studies of Salmonella bacteria on the International Space Station have identified the controlling gene responsible for its increased virulence in microgravity, resulting in the dis¬covery of a candidate vaccine. Salmonella is one of the most common forms of food poisoning and a major cause of childhood death worldwide.

NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center posted a photo:

This photograph depicts the International Space Station's Joint Airlock Module undergoing exhaustive structural and systems testing in the space station manufacturing facility at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala. The Airlock has two sections: the larger equipment lock, on the left, stores spacesuits and associated gear, and the narrower crewlock on the right, allows the astronauts to exit into space for extravehicular activities or spacewalks. The airlock is 18 feet long and has a mass of about 13,500 pounds. It was launched to the station aboard the space shuttle Atlantis (STS-104 mission) on July 12, 2001.

U.S. Laboratory Module Simulator (NASA, International Space Station)

nobody@flickr.com (NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center) — Tue, 18 Jun 2013 11:24:21 -0700

NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center posted a photo:

The Marshall Space Flight Center is responsible for designing and building the life support systems that provide the crew of the International Space Station with a comfortable environment in which to live and work. Scientists and engineers are working together to provide the space station with systems that are safe, efficient and cost-effective. For example, the water recovery system reduces crew dependence on delivered water by 65 percent. These compact and powerful systems are collectively called the Environmental Control and Life Support Systems, ECLSS. This is an exterior view of the U.S. Laboratory Module Simulator containing the ECLSS Internal Thermal Control System (ITCS) testing facility at the center. At the bottom right is the data acquisition and control computers (in the blue equipment racks) that monitor the testing in the facility. The ITCS simulator facility duplicates the function, operation, and troubleshooting problems of the ITCS. The main function of the ITCS is to control the temperature of equipment and hardware installed in a typical ISS Payload Rack.

NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center posted a photo:

The Destiny Laboratory module is the U.S.-built module used for Earth science studies. It is also equipped with storage points for dozens of experiment modules that can be brought up from Earth or returned when the experiments are completed. Destiny's window -- which takes up the space of one rack -- is an optical gem that makes possible the ability to shoot very high quality photos and video. Station crew members use video and still cameras at the window to record Earth's ever-changing landscapes below. The Destiny laboratory was built at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala.

NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center posted a photo:

Expedition 8 Commander and Science Officer Michael Foale conducts an inspection of the Microgravity Science Glovebox (MSG) aboard the International Space Station. The MSG, which is managed by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala., is one of the major dedicated science facilities inside Destiny. It has a large front window and built-in gloves to provide a sealed environment for conducting science and technology experiments. The glovebox is particularly suited for handling hazardous materials when the crew is present. Without containment, liquids and particles involved would float about the cabin. This could cause damage to equipment or harm the crew.

NASA astronaut Chris Cassidy, Expedition 36 flight engineer, works on the Capillary Flow Experiment aboard the International Space Station on May 22, 2013. The suite of fluid physics experiments known as CFE-2 study how fluids move “up” surfaces in microgravity. Results from prior experiments already have improved current computer models of low-gravity fluid systems. Spacecraft designers have incorporated information from the models to improve fluid transfer systems on future spacecraft. The experiment also has applications for medical testing.

NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center posted a photo:

This "first light" image from the ISERV camera mounted on the International Space Station shows the mouth of the Rio San Pablo in Veraguas, Panama, as it empties into the Gulf of Montijo. This wetland supports an important local fishery and provides habitat for many mammals and reptiles, as well as several species of nesting and wintering water birds. The image was captured Feb. 16, 2013. Images from ISERV can be used by emergency teams to enhance responses to disasters on Earth. The ISERV camera is mounted in a high-quality optical window facility that was manufactured at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala. Scientists at Marshall also built the ISERV camera.

Robonaut 2 Performs Tests in Space (NASA, International Space Station)

NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center posted a photo:

In the International Space Station's Destiny laboratory, Robonaut 2, the first humanoid robot in space, performs a series of tests. Ground teams put Robonaut through its paces as they remotely commanded it to operate valves on a task board. Robonaut serves as a springboard to help evolve new robotic capabilities in space. It demonstrates that a dexterous robot can launch and operate in a space vehicle, manipulate mechanisms in a microgravity environment, operate for an extended duration within the space environment, assist with tasks, and eventually interact with the crew members. General Motors co-developed this technology with NASA, and plans to use it in future advanced vehicle safety systems and manufacturing plant applications.

NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center posted a photo:

NASA astronaut Kevin Ford, Expedition 34 commander, performs maintenance on the Amine Swingbed in the Destiny laboratory. The Amine Swingbed investigation determines if a vacuum-regenerated amine system can effectively remove carbon dioxide from the space station atmosphere using a smaller more efficient vacuum regeneration system. Although designed for human spaceflight missions where ample access to the vacuum of space is available, the technology can be used in earth applications if access to a clean purge gas supply is available.

NASA astronaut Dan Burbank, Expedition 30 commander, exercises using the advanced Resistive Exercise Device (aRED) in the Tranquility node of the International Space Station. Crew members use the aRED and other exercise devices to help maintain bone density. With astronauts exhibiting bone loss similar to osteoporosis in space, research should contribute to the development of a reference technique to perform an early detection of osteoporosis on Earth. These improved diagnostics in the early stages of such a medical condition may prove extremely important in development of more effective countermeasures to the effects of osteoporosis.

NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center posted a photo:

This ISERV image shows the towering, snow-topped mountains and deeply carved valleys of the Chilean Andes. The Andes Mountains form one of the longest continuous mountain ranges in the world, extending along South America's western coast. The range is about 7,000 km (4,300 mi) long, passing through Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela. The Chilean Andes form most of the border between Chile and Argentina and include the highest section of the mountain range. The highest peak stands almost 6,962 m (22,841 ft) above sea level in the province of Mendoza, Argentina. The Chilean Andean system plays a strong role in Chile's weather, with the two sides the Andes exhibiting strong climatic differences.

About ISERV

From the Earth-facing window of the International Space Station's (ISS) Destiny module, nearly 95 percent of the planet's populated area is visible during the station's orbit. This unique vantage point provides the opportunity to take photos of Earth from space. With the installation and activation of the ISS SERVIR Environmental Research and Visualization System (ISERV), NASA will be able to provide even higher resolution images of Earth! The ISERV camera system's mission is to gain experience and expertise in automated data acquisition from the space station. ISERV is expected to provide useful images for disaster monitoring and assessment and environmental decision making.
