UF Spaceplants on their way to the LMM

The first UF Spaceplants harvest of APEX-03 is happening this morning. The UF team arrived at GRC at about 2:30AM EST to get set up watching the ISS videos and listening to the comms links. Its cold and snowy in Cleveland and the entrance to GRC actually looks quite special under these conditions.

Nice night/morning to arrive at Glenn

ISS CDR Butch Wilmore is in now in the middle of the harvest procedure. He is at the MWA, the maintenance work area, which is all set up as the ISS lab bench for this experiment. Here is a short video of the video of the early procedures. In this video you can also see a portion of the crew planning document on the left hand side.
