Expedition 72 is awaiting the SpaceX Crew-10 mission, which is delayed due to a ground issue with the Falcon 9 rocket. Meanwhile, the International Space Station continues advanced research in microgravity, robotics, and combustion. Key activities include:
- Robotics: Activation of the Astrobee robotic free-flyer to autonomously detect and grapple objects.
- Combustion experiments: Servicing of the Electrostatic Levitation Furnace and the Combustion Integrated Rack by NASA engineers to study material properties and flammability in space.
- Maintenance: Inspections and airflow measurements by Flight Engineer Nick Hague.
- Health studies: Testing of the lower body negative pressure suit and microgravity adaptation by Roscosmos cosmonauts.
