STS-69 Flight Day 3 HighlightsOn the third day of the STS-69 mission, the flight crew (Cmdr. Dave Walker, Pilot Ken Cockrell, and Mission Specialists Jim Voss, Mike Gernhardt, and Jim Newman) test the Orbital Maneuvering System and prepare for the retrieval of the SPARTAN satellite with a checkout procedure of the space shuttle's robot arm. Physiological and chemical experiments on fluid dynamics are conducted as part of the Sea Lab project. Urine and blood samples from the crew are collected and studied under microgravity conditions, and a slime mold experiment is conducted to determine the properties of motion, growth, and chemistry in zero gravity conditions. Earth views include cloud cover, a hurricane, and a close-up of its eye.
