GRC/OZ Monthly Tag Up – 4 Glenn Research Center Mission Integration and Planning Increments – GRC Payload Planning (Cont’d) IPM: IPM: B. Rhone/ D. McConnell LIS Rep: Parneet Kaur / Andrew Tucker / Jason Levy CEF CEF # 3222 – SLICE removal from Inc 31/32 CEF # 3216 – Update GRC Inc 31/32 PTP CEF # Delete BXF from Increment IDRD. BXF was returned on ULF7 and no longer on ISS. CEF# Add FCF Resupply to HTV-3 flight CEF # This CEF is to trash the MDCA Radiometer which was recently replaced by the crew with the newer and improved MDCA Radiometer II. The MDCA Radiometer (P/N 67235MFAC13900) has a mass of 1.07 kg and dimensions of 12.4 x 8.2 x 8 cm. The MDCA Radiometer is no longer needed on orbit and is not required for return. CEF# Correct the HTV3 manifest and update SpaceX-1 upmass request ( Deletes one FCF H/W Item from HTV3, corrects the mass for two hardware items, and corrects a part name and part number for another H/W Item. Due to the correction of the two mass numbers total FCF Resupply on HTV3 goes up 1.2 kg. Additionally this CEF adds additional H/W to SpaceX-1. This additional hardware adds 28.8 kg to the FCF Resupply previously shown in the PTP) CEF# Reduce the FCF Launch Manifest aboard HTV3 ( One pair of MDCA Needles will not be able to make the HTV3 flight having failed a critical flow test and verification. The MDCA Needles are used to deliver liquid fuel within the CIR for combustion experiments) CEF # Add BCAT Adaptor to HTV3 ( This CEF adds a new component to support the BCAT series of experiments. In October 2011, Mike Fossum created a new setup when installing the BCAT-6 sample module. The new set up provided BCAT with several efficiencies and benefits, however also introduced an unanticipated and undesirable sway of the module resulting in less than perfect imaging over long term sessions. To avoid this, BCAT requires almost daily crew intervention to re-align the set up. (tweaking both camera and sample positions) This new component would eliminate the sway and thereby result in more stable images and result in less crew intervention as well as improve the quality of the images and thereby improving obtained science data. ) Status: Approved Status: Approved Status: Approved Status: Approved
GRC/OZ Monthly Tag Up – 5 Glenn Research Center Mission Integration and Planning Increments – GRC Payload Planning (Cont’d) IPM: IPM: B. Rhone/ D. McConnell LIS Rep: Parneet Kaur / Andrew Tucker / Jason Levy CEF CEF # Correct FCF HTV3 Manifest to include a Part 3 Item (Add needle covers to MDCA Needles) This CEF is to correct the HTV3 manifest for FCF Hardware. A Part 3 item was missed as part of the original manifest. This correction has NO impacts to mass, volume, PTP, operations, verifications, safety or otherwise. CEF # Additional SPICE & BASS hardware return on SPX-1 (the return of the SPICE Camera and 41 additional tapes for the BASS experiment to return on SPX-1. This accounts for 52 total digital tapes for BASS and 26 tapes for SLICE. ) CEF # Correct MDCA Needle Holder 2 Dimension -This CEF Corrects a Typo in the MR Loader for the MDCA Needle Holder 2 (P/N 67235MFAL21001) The CORRECT Dimensions are x 6.40 x 7.50 CM CEF# 3472 – ACE -1 Early Retrieval (This CEF updates the MR and PTP for ACE Samples and LMM 2.5X Lens on HTV-3 to show "early retrieval" upon berthing with ISS. Although the ACE-1 Samples and LMM 2.5X Lens are already planned for packing at L-80 hours, and are packed for early retrieval, the PTP does not show this as a requirement. This CEF updates the paper. ) CEF # Move InSPACE-3 crew time (2hrs 30min) to nominal for Vial Inspection in Inc 31/32 (With the InSPACE-3 vials currently on orbit for more than a year, this request would inspect and photograph the vials to look for clumping and bubbles of sample material) Status: Approved Status: Approved

Dan Burbank operated Vane Gap 2 (VG-2) on May 10, This series of test used VG-2 to isolate the wetted critical angle in Quadrant # 3, ten test points completed. Dan Burbank operated Interior Corner Flow 1 (ICF-1) on March 6, This series of tests isolated a bubble in transport tube to study the compression of the bubble.

National Aeronautics and Space Administration InSPACE-3 On-Orbit Operations Status Ops Complete (to date) Ops Planned (next months) Ops Planned (to completion) NoneOps schedule to begin mid-late January 2013 Ops schedule to begin mid to late January 2013 Highlight Made some headway on the planning to get the on-orbit vials inspect, photograph, and mixing (if needed) in Inc. 31/32. Bob Green performed the monthly inspection (6/7) of the InSPACE-3 non-flight vial assemblies for particle clumping and/or any other changes to the fluid. Results: 4 vials nominal. 2 vials - showing particles clumping. Completed InSPACE-3 TIR part 2 (6/20) at MSFC. TIR - Team Integrated Review where the Increment team conducts a thorough review of the planning products and crew procedures prior to the ECR drop to baseline. Submitted hazard analysis document to PSRP. Concerns Project Scientist and Principal Investigator have some concerns about the long storage duration of the InSPACE vials on ISS due to ops delays. The concern is that the vials particles might clump together over the long storage period. Inspection of the vials will provide some indication and will help plan, if needed, any particles redistribution early before it gets to the point where the vials could no longer be of use.
National Aeronautics and Space Administration FLEX-2 On-Orbit Operations Status Ops Complete (to date) Ops Planned (next month) Ops Planned (to completion) 65~ 8-12~ 400 May Highlight –Primary Surrogate Fuel test points completed –Convective and Quiescent tests from science matrix will be next set of FLEX-2 combustion tests, starting early July Issues –During flight operations on 7 June, operations were significantly hampered by a motor position error associated with the fuel reservoir Dispenser #2. This error results in severely limiting the ability to dispense fuel from the reservoir. On-orbit troubleshooting tests indicate that an obstruction has formed in the fuel reservoir/needle. –The experiment is set to continue operations from Dispenser #1 for the Quiescent and Convective tests until a definitive resolution is defined.
