European Space Agency astronaut Alexander Gerst, Expedition 40 flight engineer, removes hardware for the combustion experiment known as the Burning and Suppression of Solids (BASS-II) from the Microgravity Science Glovebox (MSG) in the Destiny laboratory of the International Space Station. The experiment seeks to provide insight on how flames burn in space compared to Earth which may provide fire safety benefits aboard future spacecraft. NASA astronaut Reid Wiseman, flight engineer, looks on.
