conducted the standard crew safety briefing.

14
00:00:45,026 --> 00:00:48,826
The new crew members have familiarized
themselves with the potential hazards,

15
00:00:48,826 --> 00:00:51,896
safety euipment locations and escape routes.

16
00:00:52,146 --> 00:00:55,076
The newly arrived trio has now

regular schedule as a six member crew today

29
00:01:48,526 --> 00:01:50,746
with a wake up at 1 a.m. Central time.

30
00:01:51,296 --> 00:01:55,696
A couple of hours after wake up the
Expedition crew participated in the first

31
00:01:55,696 --> 00:01:59,276
of two daily planning conferences with
ground controllers at Mission Control Centers

32
00:01:59,566 --> 00:02:03,666
around the world to review the day's
activities and plan for the next set of tasks.

33
00:02:03,666 --> 00:02:08,136
Commander Mike Fossum and Flight Engineer
Satoshi Furukawa will perform an hour

34
00:02:08,136 --> 00:02:11,056
of their two-hour scheduled daily exercise.

35
00:02:11,356 --> 00:02:16,006
Fossum will be performing strength training
with the Advanced Resistive Exercise Device

36
00:02:16,696 --> 00:02:20,716
after deconfiguring a joint orbital
communications adapter router

37
00:02:20,716 --> 00:02:23,296
to stow away as a spare onboard the station.

38
00:02:23,856 --> 00:02:26,886
Furukawa will workout using
the onboard treadmill.

39
00:02:27,466 --> 00:02:32,356
Flight Engineer Sergei Volkov will
participate in a private medical conference

40
00:02:32,356 --> 00:02:34,016

41
00:02:35,866 --> 00:02:39,456
Meanwhile, the new Expedition
29 crewmates Dan Burbank

42
00:02:39,666 --> 00:02:44,246
and Anton Shkaplerov will familiarize
themselves with the exercise equipment onboard.

43
00:02:44,646 --> 00:02:49,306
The on-orbit gym is equipped with
a stationary bicycle, a treadmill

44
00:02:49,356 --> 00:02:53,326
and the advanced exercise device that
simulates weight lifting here on Earth.

45
00:02:54,596 --> 00:02:57,136
Also, Anatoly Ivanishin will be tending

46
00:02:57,136 --> 00:03:00,806
to a Russian cell cultivation
experiment known as Cascade.

47
00:03:01,516 --> 00:03:05,976
Earlier this morning, Commander Fossum led
a crew handover review with his crewmates.

48
00:03:05,976 --> 00:03:09,476
As part of its handover, the
crew reviewed emergency roles

49
00:03:09,476 --> 00:03:12,246
and responsibilities aboard the
International Space Station.

50
00:03:12,946 --> 00:03:17,656
Fossum then changed out a tank of the onboard
Water Recovery System and also checked

51
00:03:17,656 --> 00:03:22,496
on a couple of science experiments of the
Commercial Generic Bioprocessing Apparatus

52
00:03:22,496 --> 00:03:24,826
and also the Binary Colloidal Alloy Test.

53
00:03:25,406 --> 00:03:29,346
Before today's update hour Fossum tended
to the Combustion Integrated Rack,

54
00:03:29,696 --> 00:03:32,176
a facility that houses hardware capable

55
00:03:32,176 --> 00:03:35,426
of performing combustion
experiments there in microgravity.

56
00:03:36,106 --> 00:03:43,026
Flight Engineer Dan Burbank, shown here in this
view, performed his first Reaction self-test

57
00:03:43,066 --> 00:03:45,826
that measures fatigue resulting
from the disruption

58
00:03:45,826 --> 00:03:49,036
of the circadian rhythm while
living and working in space.

59
00:03:49,746 --> 00:03:53,406
He had also participated in his
first private medical conference

60
00:03:53,406 --> 00:03:56,706
and an Inventory Management System
and stowage conference there

61
00:03:56,706 --> 00:04:01,576
with Mike Fossum who is also shown in this view.

62
00:04:01,666 --> 00:04:03,736
Flight Engineer Sergei Volkov documented

63
00:04:03,736 --> 00:04:09,746
with photos an ongoing Russian science
experiment known as Bioemulsion that aims

64
00:04:09,746 --> 00:04:13,956
to provide efficient, ecologically
safe production of bacterial,

65
00:04:13,956 --> 00:04:16,756
fermental and medicinal preparations.

66
00:04:17,236 --> 00:04:21,796
He also had relocated hardware that was
used earlier in another science experiment

67
00:04:21,796 --> 00:04:25,426
that was known as Plasmida that
examines the microgravity effect

68
00:04:25,426 --> 00:04:28,266
on the rate of transfer on Plasmid DNA.

69
00:04:29,826 --> 00:04:34,246
Volkov also tended to the cell cultivation
experiment, as well as an experiment

70
00:04:34,246 --> 00:04:36,226
that looks at the growth of wheat in space.

71
00:04:38,696 --> 00:04:43,326
Meanwhile, Burbank, Shkaplerov and Ivanishin
studied the emergency roles and responsibilities

72
00:04:43,386 --> 00:04:46,086
of the International Space Station
and spent some time adjusting

73
00:04:46,086 --> 00:04:47,546
to their new environment in space.

74
00:04:50,126 --> 00:04:53,276
While the three new crew members will
continue to settle in their new home,

75
00:04:53,606 --> 00:04:57,206
work with their station veteran crewmates
in additional handovers and adjust

76
00:04:57,256 --> 00:04:59,406
to their microgravity living space.
