1
00:00:01,856 --> 00:00:03,136
The next members

2
00:00:03,136 --> 00:00:05,316
of the International
Space Station's crew come

3
00:00:05,316 --> 00:00:06,736
from three different countries.

4
00:00:07,056 --> 00:00:09,206
Yet they plan to work
for a shared goal --

5
00:00:09,206 --> 00:00:12,486
getting humankind ready
to fly farther from Earth

6
00:00:12,856 --> 00:00:14,186
than this station can go.

7
00:00:14,186 --> 00:00:18,506
Canadian Space Agency astronaut
Chris Hadfield was born

8
00:00:18,506 --> 00:00:22,346
in Sarnia, Ontario, and
grew up there and on a farm

9
00:00:22,346 --> 00:00:23,886
in Milton, near Toronto.

10
00:00:24,456 --> 00:00:26,266
The space race had
captured his imagination

11
00:00:26,266 --> 00:00:27,556
by the time he was nine

12
00:00:27,686 --> 00:00:29,786
and watched Neil
Armstrong walk on the moon.

13
00:00:30,246 --> 00:00:32,156
And Hadfield thought to himself,

14
00:00:32,356 --> 00:00:33,736
"I'm going to grow
up to be something.

15
00:00:34,056 --> 00:00:35,276
Why not that?"

16
00:00:35,506 --> 00:00:36,426
"But then when I looking

17
00:00:36,426 --> 00:00:38,496
around I'm thinking I'm
a nine-year old kid.

18
00:00:38,706 --> 00:00:39,416
I'm a Canadian.

19
00:00:39,416 --> 00:00:40,186
What are my odds?

20
00:00:40,186 --> 00:00:40,946
Not very good.

21
00:00:41,116 --> 00:00:42,356
But I thought well you know

22
00:00:42,356 --> 00:00:44,476
up until yesterday
people couldn't even go

23
00:00:44,476 --> 00:00:45,176
and walk on the moon.

24
00:00:45,176 --> 00:00:47,356
And now they can,
so maybe I can too.

25
00:00:48,436 --> 00:00:50,866
And so I started
getting ready that night.

26
00:00:51,296 --> 00:00:53,996
Basically started, what
do I need to do next?

27
00:00:54,706 --> 00:00:56,836
Hadfield got into
advanced courses in school

28
00:00:56,836 --> 00:00:58,916
and on the academic track
that led to college.

29
00:00:59,286 --> 00:01:02,396
But he also became a ski
instructor while learning how

30
00:01:02,396 --> 00:01:05,236
to fly as a member of
Canada's air cadets.

31
00:01:05,596 --> 00:01:07,326
"They teach them a bunch
of technical things.

32
00:01:07,326 --> 00:01:08,686
They teach them self-discipline.

33
00:01:08,866 --> 00:01:10,496
They give them levels
of responsibility

34
00:01:10,496 --> 00:01:12,376
that they might not get
otherwise as teenagers.

35
00:01:12,486 --> 00:01:14,556
And in my case I spent
one summer learning

36
00:01:14,556 --> 00:01:16,916
to be a glider pilot and getting
my glider pilot's license.

37
00:01:17,106 --> 00:01:20,246
And right at the age of 16
I became a powered pilot."

38
00:01:20,616 --> 00:01:22,856
Hadfield joined the
Canadian Armed Forces right

39
00:01:22,856 --> 00:01:24,906
out of high school and
earned a Bachelor's

40
00:01:24,906 --> 00:01:27,746
in Mechanical Engineering from
the Royal Military College.

41
00:01:27,836 --> 00:01:31,916
After jet training he flew the
Canadian version of the F-18

42
00:01:31,916 --> 00:01:35,346
for NORAD, attended the U.S.
Air Force Test Pilot School

43
00:01:35,616 --> 00:01:38,816
and served as an exchange
officer with the U.S. Navy

44
00:01:38,816 --> 00:01:42,066
at the Pawtuxent River Naval Air
Station while earning a Masters

45
00:01:42,066 --> 00:01:45,116
in Aviation Systems from
the University of Tennessee.

46
00:01:45,846 --> 00:01:47,586
Hadfield was selected
as an astronaut

47
00:01:47,586 --> 00:01:50,886
by the Canadian Space
Agency in 1992 and assigned

48
00:01:50,886 --> 00:01:52,616
to the Johnson Space
Center in Houston.

49
00:01:53,116 --> 00:01:56,546
On his first spaceflight,
the 1995 shuttle mission

50
00:01:56,546 --> 00:01:59,536
that delivered a docking module
to the Mir Space Station,

51
00:01:59,976 --> 00:02:01,626
he became the first Canadian

52
00:02:01,626 --> 00:02:04,306
to operate the shuttle's
Canadarm on-orbit.

53
00:02:04,566 --> 00:02:06,696
After serving as chief astronaut

54
00:02:06,696 --> 00:02:09,296
for CSA he made his
second flight

55
00:02:09,296 --> 00:02:12,446
on the 2001 shuttle mission
that delivered Canadarm2

56
00:02:12,446 --> 00:02:14,446
to the International
Space Station.

57
00:02:14,766 --> 00:02:18,006
And he performed two
spacewalks, the first ever made

58
00:02:18,006 --> 00:02:19,376
by a Canadian astronaut.

59
00:02:20,136 --> 00:02:22,786
Hadfield served as NASA's
Director of Operations

60
00:02:22,786 --> 00:02:25,976
in Star City, Russia, retired
from the Canadian Air Force

61
00:02:25,976 --> 00:02:29,056
as a colonel and then
served in a variety of roles

62
00:02:29,056 --> 00:02:32,636
within NASA's Astronaut Office
before getting this assignment

63
00:02:32,746 --> 00:02:36,116
to support the research onboard
the International Space Station.

64
00:02:36,596 --> 00:02:40,066
"And it is our big
proving ground.

65
00:02:40,066 --> 00:02:43,546
It's our test track for building
spaceships in the future

66
00:02:43,716 --> 00:02:47,126
and it is therefore the diving
board, the launching board,

67
00:02:47,336 --> 00:02:48,386
that's going to allow us

68
00:02:48,386 --> 00:02:51,576
to confidently go
further away from Earth."

69
00:02:51,636 --> 00:02:55,416
Retired Russian Air Force
Colonel Roman Romanenko was born

70
00:02:55,416 --> 00:02:58,576
in Schelkovo near Moscow
and grew up in Star City

71
00:02:58,576 --> 00:03:00,546
at the center of the
cosmonaut community.

72
00:03:01,016 --> 00:03:03,356
His father, cosmonaut
Yuri Romanenko,

73
00:03:03,356 --> 00:03:06,956
flew three times before his
son graduated from high school.

74
00:03:07,366 --> 00:03:11,256
So the idea of being a cosmonaut
wasn't so romantic to the son.

75
00:03:11,936 --> 00:03:17,026
"We never went on a trip, or
on a picnic, or business trip.

76
00:03:17,026 --> 00:03:21,286
I was always with my dad and I
would just always be in contact

77
00:03:21,286 --> 00:03:24,096
with cosmonauts and I thought
it would be always normal

78
00:03:24,096 --> 00:03:24,916
to be with them.

79
00:03:25,046 --> 00:03:26,916
There's nothing special
about it for me."

80
00:03:27,396 --> 00:03:29,986
But he did want to
be a military pilot.

81
00:03:30,306 --> 00:03:32,876
So after high school
Romanenko followed his father

82
00:03:32,876 --> 00:03:34,016
into the Air Force.

83
00:03:34,306 --> 00:03:37,526
He graduated from the Suvorov
Military School in Leningrad

84
00:03:37,666 --> 00:03:40,166
and the Chernikov Higher
Military School of Pilots.

85
00:03:40,646 --> 00:03:44,326
But after the fall of the Soviet
Union young Air Force pilots had

86
00:03:44,326 --> 00:03:46,586
fewer opportunities
to fly fighters.

87
00:03:47,026 --> 00:03:50,216
Romanenko found himself
co-piloting cargo transport

88
00:03:50,516 --> 00:03:53,696
and ferrying cosmonauts to
their launch site in Kazakhstan.

89
00:03:53,976 --> 00:03:57,896
"They weren't allowing
me to fly a lot

90
00:03:57,896 --> 00:04:00,516
and so I started thinking
about changing jobs.

91
00:04:01,086 --> 00:04:03,486
Maybe find something
related to that.

92
00:04:04,226 --> 00:04:07,946
And right at that moment I
was told that they're looking

93
00:04:07,946 --> 00:04:13,636
for applicants to
join the cosmonauts.

94
00:04:14,816 --> 00:04:15,786
And I thought why not?

95
00:04:15,786 --> 00:04:17,236
I give it a try as well."

96
00:04:18,106 --> 00:04:21,756
Romanenko was selected as a
cosmonaut candidate in 1997

97
00:04:22,056 --> 00:04:23,456
and made his first spaceflight

98
00:04:23,456 --> 00:04:27,686
in 2009 commanding the Soyuz
spacecraft that brought he

99
00:04:27,686 --> 00:04:30,136
and two crewmates to the
International Space Station

100
00:04:30,416 --> 00:04:34,466
to expand its crew to six for
the first time on Expedition 20.

101
00:04:35,146 --> 00:04:37,696
Romanenko has also
served as deputy commander

102
00:04:37,696 --> 00:04:40,516
of Russia's cosmonaut corps
while his nation has worked

103
00:04:40,516 --> 00:04:42,016
with its international partners

104
00:04:42,206 --> 00:04:44,056
to get ready for
the next journey.

105
00:04:44,446 --> 00:04:49,336
"If everything is going
well, if we are able

106
00:04:49,336 --> 00:04:53,456
to successfully follow the
program, the flight program,

107
00:04:53,456 --> 00:04:55,686
even while orbiting Earth

108
00:04:56,066 --> 00:04:59,586
with this rich experience we'll
be able to reach other planets

109
00:04:59,586 --> 00:05:00,986
as well with no problems."

110
00:05:01,556 --> 00:05:05,176
Dr. Tom Marshburn is native of
Statesville, North Carolina,

111
00:05:05,606 --> 00:05:07,176
the seventh of seven children

112
00:05:07,176 --> 00:05:09,546
who loved working
and playing outdoors.

113
00:05:09,866 --> 00:05:12,876
He remembers being excited
to watch the first moonwalk

114
00:05:12,966 --> 00:05:15,296
because it fed into
his love of adventure.

115
00:05:15,596 --> 00:05:17,376
"I always loved to
draw and to paint.

116
00:05:17,796 --> 00:05:21,236
It was in high school
that I thought you know,

117
00:05:21,356 --> 00:05:23,176
the space program is
interesting to me,

118
00:05:23,176 --> 00:05:25,146
specifically the space
program that got me

119
00:05:25,146 --> 00:05:27,326
into the technical field and
I just switched completely.

120
00:05:27,326 --> 00:05:31,246
I concentrated on math,
science and fell in love

121
00:05:31,246 --> 00:05:32,296
with the physics classes."

122
00:05:32,296 --> 00:05:36,216
After high school in Atlanta he
earned his Bachelor's in Physics

123
00:05:36,216 --> 00:05:38,666
from Davidson College
and a Masters in Physics

124
00:05:38,666 --> 00:05:40,236
from the University of Virginia.

125
00:05:40,236 --> 00:05:44,246
But he also came to understand
that his talents might lie more

126
00:05:44,346 --> 00:05:45,526
in working with people.

127
00:05:46,166 --> 00:05:48,416
"I actually came down to
the Johnson Space Center

128
00:05:48,416 --> 00:05:50,566
and started knocking on
doors asking for a job

129
00:05:51,006 --> 00:05:52,516
after I received
my Masters degree.

130
00:05:53,016 --> 00:05:54,286
One of the doctor's
that worked here said,

131
00:05:54,286 --> 00:05:56,986
you ought to get a medical
degree cause NASA's going

132
00:05:56,986 --> 00:05:57,876
to need doctors some day.

133
00:05:58,846 --> 00:05:59,216
So I did."

134
00:06:00,456 --> 00:06:03,286
Marshburn earned a Doctor
of Medicine at Wake Forest,

135
00:06:03,556 --> 00:06:06,656
trained as an emergency room
physician in Toledo, Ohio,

136
00:06:06,976 --> 00:06:10,766
and then worked in an ER in
Seattle before being accepted

137
00:06:10,766 --> 00:06:13,536
in the first class of NASA's
Space Medicine Fellowship

138
00:06:13,536 --> 00:06:15,826
program to train as
a flight surgeon.

139
00:06:16,426 --> 00:06:18,826
In that role for NASA,
Marshburn has worked

140
00:06:18,826 --> 00:06:21,456
in the shuttle program,
in Star City, Russia,

141
00:06:21,456 --> 00:06:23,446
for NASA personnel
assigned as part

142
00:06:23,446 --> 00:06:25,476
of the International
Space Station Program

143
00:06:25,866 --> 00:06:29,496
and as lead flight surgeon
for shuttle and station crews.

144
00:06:29,936 --> 00:06:32,526
He was selected as
an astronaut in 2004

145
00:06:32,866 --> 00:06:34,416
and made his first spaceflight

146
00:06:34,506 --> 00:06:37,136
on a 2009 space shuttle
mission during

147
00:06:37,136 --> 00:06:40,396
which he made three spacewalks
to complete the construction

148
00:06:40,396 --> 00:06:42,276
of the Kibo laboratory complex

149
00:06:42,546 --> 00:06:45,636
and get the International Space
Station in shape for its mission

150
00:06:45,896 --> 00:06:48,736
as a test bed that will
help human beings prepare

151
00:06:48,736 --> 00:06:51,376
for the next stage
of space exploration.

152
00:06:51,776 --> 00:06:54,386
"You'd have to build
something and then test it

153
00:06:54,386 --> 00:06:56,366
out over a long period of time.

154
00:06:56,366 --> 00:06:58,266
Well that's what the
space station is.

155
00:06:58,836 --> 00:07:02,676
And with the Russian technology,
with a lot of technology,

156
00:07:02,676 --> 00:07:06,416
the international partners have
come up with, we're able to find

157
00:07:06,416 --> 00:07:10,516
out how we can maintain
these things we call people
