experiments including one that studies 66 00:02:42,420 --> 00:02:40,840 the earth's oceans and one that looks at 67 00:02:45,210 --> 00:02:42,430 leak detection methods on the space 68 00:02:46,950 --> 00:02:45,220 station earlier today the team on the 69 00:02:49,620 --> 00:02:46,960 ground had planned to perform a reboost 70 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:49,630 of the space stations at altitude using 71 00:02:56,340 --> 00:02:53,730 a the progress 48 vehicles thrusters 72 00:02:57,900 --> 00:02:56,350 that was going to get the station into 73 00:02:59,880 --> 00:02:57,910 the correct position for the upcoming 74 00:03:01,470 --> 00:02:59,890 Soyuz launch and a progress launch that 75 00:03:02,970 --> 00:03:01,480 will follow it as well as per if I the 76 00:03:04,790 --> 00:03:02,980 team on the ground with an opportunity 77 00:03:06,750 --> 00:03:04,800 to test out the station's new 78 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:06,760 predetermined debris avoidance maneuver 79 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:09,610 procedures / flight controllers had some 80 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:11,170 trouble locking down one of the 81 00:03:15,930 --> 00:03:14,050 station's beta gimbal assemblies which 82 00:03:18,449 --> 00:03:15,940 rotate the station's mathis solar arrays 83 00:03:20,580 --> 00:03:18,459 so that reboost was put off team and 84 00:03:25,020 --> 00:03:20,590 trim the team intends to try again on 85 00:03:26,490 --> 00:03:25,030 December 16th that's what's going on in
