Pettit and his space station crew members spent the majority of their time aboard the orbiting laboratory performing science experiments Their efforts supported more than 200 scientific investigations involving more than 400 researchers around the world The studies ranged from integrated investigations of the human cardiovascular and immune systems to fluid, flame and robotic research They also welcomed the first commercial cargo vehicle to the station, the SpaceX Dragon, which Pettit caught and berthed to the complex using the station's robotic arm
During Expedition 30 and 31, Pettit also used household objects aboard the station to perform a variety of unusual physics experiments for the video series "Science Off the Sphere " Through these demonstrations, Pettit showed more than a million Internet viewers how space affects scientific principles
