1 00:00:06,470 --> 00:00:04,340 well good evening on board the 2 00:00:09,020 --> 00:00:06,480 International Space Station it's a real 3 00:00:12,830 --> 00:00:09,030 honor and a privilege for me to have 4 00:00:16,039 --> 00:00:12,840 been in command of this really 5 00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:16,049 miraculous facility for Oh several 6 00:00:23,890 --> 00:00:19,970 months now and you know we've really 7 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:23,900 complex a lot in my time here we've had 8 00:00:34,370 --> 00:00:28,170 many visiting vehicles progress vehicle 9 00:00:37,790 --> 00:00:34,380 Soyuz European HTV Japanese HTV and a 10 00:00:41,330 --> 00:00:37,800 space shuttle along with that we've done 11 00:00:44,090 --> 00:00:41,340 some very impressive science and we've 12 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:44,100 gotten the space station ready for life 13 00:00:51,889 --> 00:00:47,250 after the space shuttle program which we 14 00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:51,899 certainly will miss and we've done that 15 00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:55,530 all of that not just through our our 16 00:00:59,650 --> 00:00:57,210 work here on board but more 17 00:01:02,810 --> 00:00:59,660 significantly I think through teamwork 18 00:01:05,060 --> 00:01:02,820 with the folks around the world and 19 00:01:09,140 --> 00:01:05,070 different control centers with the 20 00:01:13,010 --> 00:01:09,150 people that work in the programs on and 21 00:01:17,020 --> 00:01:13,020 for all these modules and and and the 22 00:01:20,179 --> 00:01:17,030 international partnerships involved it's 23 00:01:22,609 --> 00:01:20,189 if you could see this place in person it 24 00:01:26,210 --> 00:01:22,619 really is in my opinion one of the most 25 00:01:28,070 --> 00:01:26,220 amazing engineering achievements that 26 00:01:29,630 --> 00:01:28,080 people have accomplished and you know if 27 00:01:32,990 --> 00:01:29,640 we can build something like this we can 28 00:01:35,210 --> 00:01:33,000 meet any challenge and we certainly have 29 00:01:37,550 --> 00:01:35,220 challenges back on earth and we 30 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:37,560 recognize that and you know our heart 31 00:01:41,569 --> 00:01:39,329 goes out to our hearts go out to our 32 00:01:45,230 --> 00:01:41,579 partners in Japan that have suffered 33 00:01:48,469 --> 00:01:45,240 greatly and you know we really feel for 34 00:01:50,389 --> 00:01:48,479 them and hope they and know they will 35 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:50,399 recover from this as you know the 36 00:01:58,310 --> 00:01:55,250 Japanese people are very very resilient 37 00:02:00,770 --> 00:01:58,320 I'm a captain in the United States Navy 38 00:02:03,410 --> 00:02:00,780 and they change a command ceremony is 39 00:02:08,330 --> 00:02:03,420 very significant and a time-honored 40 00:02:10,790 --> 00:02:08,340 tradition where one officer relinquishes 41 00:02:13,070 --> 00:02:10,800 command and another assumes command and 42 00:02:13,820 --> 00:02:13,080 it's my understanding is it's the same 43 00:02:15,920 --> 00:02:13,830 way in the 44 00:02:21,430 --> 00:02:15,930 in the Russian military and the Russian 45 00:02:24,410 --> 00:02:21,440 Air Force so what I'd like to do now is 46 00:02:28,220 --> 00:02:24,420 turn the command of the International 47 00:02:31,910 --> 00:02:28,230 Space Station over to Colonel dmitry 48 00:02:34,700 --> 00:02:31,920 kondratyev of the russian air force and 49 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:34,710 i will do that with just a few simple 50 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:38,730 words and that is i relinquish command 51 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:43,170 of the International Space Station and 52 00:02:57,770 --> 00:02:53,490 in Russian come under vaani a MKS da I'm 53 00:02:59,420 --> 00:02:57,780 kind of commanding has been handed over 54 00:03:02,090 --> 00:02:59,430 you've the command over international 55 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:02,100 space station commander y me lo dica 56 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:06,810 speech Costanzi premium as a commander 57 00:03:17,810 --> 00:03:14,730 has been accepted it's been a great 58 00:03:24,410 --> 00:03:17,820 pleasure talking with the insufficient 59 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:24,420 26 user support team and we
