The Expedition 14 crew members continued work on several experiments 
that included monitoring sleep/wake patterns and light exposure and 
collecting blood and urine samples for later evaluation. Another 
experiment measures details about cosmic radiation and its interactions 
with astronauts’ central nervous systems.

The crew also made preparations for Thursday’s and Friday’s installation 
of network cabling, clearing out stowage gear to provide the necessary 
access. The crew members also stowed trash and discarded equipment in 
the ISS Progress 23 cargo ship which is scheduled to undock from the 
station and burn on re-entry on March 27.
