Soyuz TMA
• Positive– More leg room– More information
available for the crew– Easier nominal operations
• Negative– Commanding more complicated– Inadvertent commanding likely– Off-nominal more complicated
Page 8
• Some minor problems notified in technical debrief
• Rendez-Vous and Docking– Failure of KYPC 1 system
• Made for 2 man operations

Space Station• General– Difference US Segment and Russian
Segment– Crowded with 6 people– Variety in food and drinks needs to be
improved

Experiments
• Biology– Osteoporosis (Rho Signaling and Vitamin D). – Radition Effects (Ramiros)
• Microbiologe– Message - Effects of microgravity on bacterial gene expression with special attention to
genes involved in the response to stress, in motility (flagella) and in genetic rearrangements.
• Cardioscience / Cogniscience– Effects of microgravity on cardiovascular and respiratory systems, and the stress,
cognition and physiological response during spaceflight. – Directed Attention Brain Potential in virtual 3-D space in weightlessness.
• Physical science– GCF: Protein crystallization in the Granada Crystallisation Facility. – Zeogrid: Study of the structure and morphology of Zeogrids obtained under
microgravity conditions.
– DCCO - Diffusion Coefficients in Crude Oils. – Nanoslab - Study of aggregation mechanism and kinetics – Promiss - Protein crystal growth monitoring by digital holographic microscope. – Cosmic - Combustion synthesis under microgravity conditions.

Experiments
• Human physiology– Sympatho: Sympathoadrenal activity during spaceflight. – Virus: Monitoring latent virus reactivation and shedding in astronauts.
– Sleep: Sleep-wake actigraphy and light exposure during spaceflight.
• Earth monitoring– Study of optical radiation in the ionosphere of Earth related to thunder activity and
seismic processes.
• Educational– Video and ARISS
• Ground investigations– Chromosomes - Chromosomal aberrations in blood lymphocytes of astronauts. – Xenon-1 - Effect of microgravity on the peripheral veno-articular reflex in humans. – Aorta - Physiological parameters that predict orthostatic intolerance after spaceflight.

Operations
• In general ok• Timings first day
– Help main crew• Difference US Ops versus Russian Ops• Dependency US Communications for Scientific

Future of Human Space Flight
• Current priority is ISS– Prepare for further Human Exploration
of the Solar System– Scientific outpost in space
• Europe should develop it’s vision on Human Space flight and exploration
• Based on our cultural heritage, Europe should play a major role in this endeavour
• In order to achieve this, we need to advance in certain key areas – Crew transportation– Large habitats and regenerative life
support systems– Robotics

Why do we go to space?
• Fundamental reason is to explore
– We value exploration as an opportunity to discover, to learn and, ultimately, to grow. (extract from the European Astronaut Charta)
– The main added value of innovative space projects is the value of the people behind them who have to surpass themselves to succeed. And this in an international environment
– The resulting increased level of knowledge and technology increases the capability of the society to solve other difficult problems on Earth
⇒Human space flight can help to build the knowledge based society that Europe wants to become (Lisbon 2000)
• In addition
– Space provides an excellent scientific platform
– Human space flight can help build the European Identity
– Human space flight can inspire young people to choose for scientific careers

Conclusions
• Overall successful mission
• Good preparation– Technical– Operational support– Crew
• Excellent support from the whole team
