1
00:00:01,326 --> 00:00:02,706
This is Mission Control Houston.

2
00:00:03,086 --> 00:00:08,706
The Expedition 30 crew onboard the International
Space Station has devoted most of its attention

3
00:00:08,706 --> 00:00:13,996
to maintenance activities today with an eye
toward Wednesday evening's delivery of more

4
00:00:13,996 --> 00:00:18,476
than 7 tons of supplies coming
onboard a European cargo ship.

5
00:00:19,066 --> 00:00:24,256
The Automated Transfer Vehicle number three,
the "Edoardo Amaldi," has been closing

6
00:00:24,256 --> 00:00:28,176
in on the station since its launch
from French Guiana last Thursday.

7
00:00:28,656 --> 00:00:31,776
The docking to the space station
is scheduled to take place

8
00:00:31,776 --> 00:00:35,496
at 5:33 p.m. central time on Wednesday.

9
00:00:35,936 --> 00:00:39,996
NASA TV coverage of that
docking will get started at 4:45.

10
00:00:40,936 --> 00:00:44,646
Following this morning's daily planning
conference, three of the members

11
00:00:44,646 --> 00:00:49,726
of the crew spent most of their morning
on a Soyuz emergency egress drill.

12
00:00:50,186 --> 00:00:56,136
Flight Engineers Oleg Kononenko, Andre Kuipers
and Don Pettit were practicing the steps

13
00:00:56,136 --> 00:01:00,956
that they would take if they had to make an
emergency departure from the space station.

14
00:01:01,396 --> 00:01:04,336
Of course, they're due to
remain on orbit until July.

15
00:01:05,126 --> 00:01:09,276
After they had lunch Kononenko
set up the Relaksatia experiment.

16
00:01:09,536 --> 00:01:14,196
He conducted some observations of the chemical
luminescent reactions in the atmosphere

17
00:01:14,636 --> 00:01:16,946
and later set up the equipment that he will use

18
00:01:17,226 --> 00:01:20,656
to open the hatches on the
ATV after its arrival.

19
00:01:21,456 --> 00:01:26,516
Andre Kuipers had time spent today in
operations with air sample monitoring

20
00:01:26,946 --> 00:01:31,506
and then he spent his afternoon unpacking
the Permanent Multipurpose Module,

21
00:01:31,886 --> 00:01:34,866
the storage compartment onboard
the space station.

22
00:01:35,126 --> 00:01:41,876
Kuipers was clearing room in the PMM for items
that are going to be delivered onboard the ATV.

23
00:01:42,336 --> 00:01:47,296
Don Pettit joined Commander Dan Burbank
routing cables inside the Destiny laboratory

24
00:01:47,296 --> 00:01:53,566
for the new High Rate Communication System which
will add additional voice and video channels

25
00:01:53,896 --> 00:01:58,026
as well as a faster communication
speeds to improve communications

26
00:01:58,026 --> 00:01:59,976
between the space station and the ground.

27
00:02:01,056 --> 00:02:05,486
Anatoly Ivanishin spent a good portion
of his day, time throughout the day,

28
00:02:05,766 --> 00:02:10,816
packing items for disposal inside the Progress
vehicle that's docked to the space station.

29
00:02:11,316 --> 00:02:16,816
He joined Anton Shkaplerov for Russian
experiment operations in which they are testing

30
00:02:16,816 --> 00:02:23,526
out some principles and methods of possible leak
control onboard the space station in the future.

31
00:02:24,296 --> 00:02:27,696
Shkaplerov occupied most of the
rest of his day shooting scenes

32
00:02:27,696 --> 00:02:31,346
for a Russian documentary
about life onboard the station.

33
00:02:31,916 --> 00:02:35,436
The crew members will be going
to bed at their regular time

34
00:02:35,496 --> 00:02:38,906
but they have a late wake-up
call coming on Wednesday morning.

35
00:02:39,466 --> 00:02:45,666
They'll be getting up late in order to
facilitate their participation in the operations

36
00:02:45,666 --> 00:02:50,406
of the rendezvous and docking of the
Automated Transfer Vehicle which is docking
