		Wilcutt and pilot Scott Altman, meanwhile, are scheduled to carry out three overnight rendezvous rocket firings to fine-tune the shuttle's approach to the international space station.
		Wilcutt and company had hoped to take a sample of the air in Unity before the scrubbers were activated to get a sense of just how much out gassing actually takes place between shuttle visits.
		Wilcutt then turned his attention to opening a final set of hatches at the far end of the Zvezda module to gain access to a Progress supply ship docked to the command module's aft port.
