STS-107 Daily Science Report
January 28
The MIST experiment has been installed
into the CM-2 facility. Checkout testing of the MIST hardware
revealed a leak that prevents a required vacuum check. The MIST
team has prepared maintenance procedures for the crew to investigate
and resolve possible leak paths. The MIST team is also reviewing
contingency plans to maximize the testing time and resources that
will remain once the leak problem has been resolved.
SAMS-FF has concluded it’s 24-hour
support of SOFBALL operations and resumes 2-shift support of MIST
in the CM-2.
Orbital Acceleration Research Experiment
(OARE) will remain powered in support of MIST in the CM-2.
Quasi-steady acceleration data will be provided post-mission.
The OARE team continues to observe that the microgravity level
is becoming more quiescent as the mission progresses.
