Expedition 74 Preps CubeSats and Photographs Earth for ResearchThree CubeSats are ejected from the Japanese Small Satellite Orbital Deployer attached to a robotic arm outside of the International Space Station’s Kibo laboratory module in June of 2019. NASAExpedition 74 focused on installing CubeSats and observing Earth aboard the International Space Station on Thursday. A portion of that research takes place on the outside of the space station and is even deployed into Earth orbit. Other research aboard the International Space Station looks at the Earth to understand how the landscape is affected by natural catastrophes such as wildfires, storms, and more.
