jsc2020e040952 (8/3/2020) --- A prefligt interior view of Freezer / Refrigerator / Incubator Device for Galley and Experimentation (FRIDGE) in nominal configuration with 2 trays. The Galley Refrigerator-Freezer, or Freezer/Refrigerator/Incubator Device for Galley and Experimentation (FRIDGE) is a locker-sized unit that provides active temperature control with a range from -20.0°C to +48.0°C. It can accommodate storage of both crew galley items and scientific research samples and can be fully operated and maintained from the ground.
