Kibo Advanced Training #2 was conducted for four astronauts; NASDA
astronauts Wakata and Hoshide, NASA astronaut Timothy Creamer, and
ESA astronaut Paolo Nespoli.
Advanced Training teaches ISS crews general subjects such as ISS
systems and payloads.
Astronaut Wakata paired with astronaut Nespoli in this training,
and astronaut Hoshide paired with astronaut Creamer. They were trained
on Kibo systems (mainly the Remote Manipulator System, Airlock,
and Exposed Facility) and Japanese payloads such as the Gradient
Heating Furnace and Clean Bench.
In March, astronaut Furukawa will also take this Advanced Training.
