On this thirteenth day of the STS-87 mission, the flight crew, Cmdr. Kevin R. Kregel, Pilot Steven W. Lindsey, Mission Specialists Winston E. Scott, Kalpana Chawla, and Takao Doi, and Payload Specialist Leonid K. Kadenyuk continue work in the mini laboratory called the microgravity glovebox facility. This facility allows crew members to interactively work with two different experiments today studying the formation of composite materials in an attempt to accurately map the roles of gravity-induced convection and sedimentation on the samples.
