* Spacesuit Troubleshooting Efforts Continue*
Expedition 9 NASA ISS Science Officer Mike Fincke continued 
troubleshooting efforts Tuesday on a U.S. spacesuit that has experienced 
cooling problems. He conducted a test of a new rotor pump that he 
installed Monday. The test was successful, and he will replace a water 
pump filter Wednesday. The pump was delivered to the Station earlier 
this month by the ISS Progress 
<http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/station/assembly/elements/progress/index.html> 
15 spacecraft.

Meanwhile inside the Zvezda Service Module, Commander Gennady Padalka 
replaced a failed pump in the cooling system.

The crew also worked with science experiments, monitored ISS systems and 
exercised.
