The Kapton covers are intact and all hardware is securely in place. Experiment AO187-2 capture cells have been severely degraded. Few, if any, of the 40 capture cell metallized Mylar covers survived the total mission. For many cells, pieces of the failed capture cover have curled into tight conical needles and are attached to the edges of the aluminum mounting frame. The EECC containing experiment M0006 appears to be in excellent shape.
Most hardware is coated with a light brown or tan stain.
Only one metallized Mylar cover for experiment AO187-2 survived the total mission. For other cells, pieces of the failed metallized Mylar cover curled into a tight conical shape and adhered to the edges of the aluminum mounting frame. This photograph is of the upper left one-sixth of the tray. The biostack canisters have no damage, but there is a dimple in one orange Kapton cover dome. The canisters were white prior to flight, but are now a light tan.
