Life Science Glovebox (LSG) is temporarily installed in ISS!

Here's the front panel that we all signed.



Monday they unpacked it from JAXA's HTV7, and slipped it into its rack. Some assembly required, but safely parked for now!



He's knocking on the front of the panel that we signed the back of. All smiles from here, so far! :)

Life Sciences Glovebox, Secondary Structure


Almost done! My box (secondary structure) has to fit into a space station rack already on orbit, and the existing glovebox (designed to fit in a different rack), must fit into the secondary structure. There is hardly any room to spare. It fit on the first try, huzzah! Getting final touches, all those hoses and electrical stuff, then will ship to Japan for launch.
