doug huiglock an 4 00:00:14,150 --> 00:00:10,800 astronaut he flew back on sts-120 which 5 00:00:15,669 --> 00:00:14,160 was space shuttle discovery back in 2007 6 00:00:16,950 --> 00:00:15,679 performed a series of spacewalks and 7 00:00:19,750 --> 00:00:16,960 then he also became commander of the 8 00:00:23,029 --> 00:00:19,760 international space station back in 2010 9 00:00:24,230 --> 00:00:23,039 as part of expedition 25 so uh he's 10 00:00:25,670 --> 00:00:24,240 going to be happy to take your questions 11 00:00:27,349 --> 00:00:25,680 he's the smarter of the two of us so 12

everybody there in acworth 19 00:00:40,790 --> 00:00:39,840 georgia i kind of missed that 20 00:00:43,030 --> 00:00:40,800 that 21 00:00:45,190 --> 00:00:43,040 part of the country i went to school 22 00:00:46,549 --> 00:00:45,200 did my graduate work at georgia tech so 23 00:00:48,869 --> 00:00:46,559 spent a little bit of time there in 24 00:00:50,790 --> 00:00:48,879 atlanta area so it's good to be talking 25 00:00:57,189 --> 00:00:50,800 to you today 26 00:01:03,750 --> 00:00:59,590 describe your spacewalk experience 27 00:01:06,390 --> 00:01:03,760 during the emergency shutdown of the iss 28 00:01:07,910 --> 00:01:06,400 pulling system were you afraid 29 00:01:11,990 --> 00:01:07,920 that's a great question what is your 30 00:01:16,630 --> 00:01:14,630 name is caitlin caitlin that's a great 31 00:01:18,789 --> 00:01:16,640 question caitlyn i get to actually get 32 00:01:20,630 --> 00:01:18,799 that question a lot from uh 33 00:01:23,910 --> 00:01:20,640 from kids because we're all kind of i'm 34 00:01:26,230 --> 00:01:23,920 a kid at heart as well myself but um 35 00:01:27,590 --> 00:01:26,240 you do fear you do you have some fears 36 00:01:29,190 --> 00:01:27,600 when you're when you're getting ready to 37 00:01:31,510 --> 00:01:29,200 do something like this because it wasn't 38 00:01:34,149 --> 00:01:31,520 something that we had trained for and so 39 00:01:36,230 --> 00:01:34,159 we had trained the skills that we needed 40 00:01:38,630 --> 00:01:36,240 to take outside to to change out this 41 00:01:40,630 --> 00:01:38,640 pump module that you were referring to 42 00:01:42,870 --> 00:01:40,640 um and we had worked together as a team 43 00:01:44,550 --> 00:01:42,880 before but we were facing something that 44 00:01:46,789 --> 00:01:44,560 was a little bit unknown for us that we 45 00:01:49,590 --> 00:01:46,799 hadn't had a chance to practice so 46 00:01:52,630 --> 00:01:49,600 so i wouldn't call it fear i i would say 47 00:01:55,350 --> 00:01:52,640 that you you manage that to where 48 00:01:56,870 --> 00:01:55,360 you you have to pull together as a team 49 00:01:58,389 --> 00:01:56,880 because everybody has their strengths 50 00:02:01,429 --> 00:01:58,399 and weaknesses much like you do in 51 00:02:03,350 --> 00:02:01,439 school when you're on a on a a team in 52 00:02:04,870 --> 00:02:03,360 school or a sports team or something 53 00:02:06,310 --> 00:02:04,880 like that 54 00:02:07,749 --> 00:02:06,320 when you're facing 55 00:02:09,669 --> 00:02:07,759 an objective 56 00:02:10,710 --> 00:02:09,679 that's impossible to overcome by 57 00:02:12,550 --> 00:02:10,720 yourself 58 00:02:15,110 --> 00:02:12,560 uh you have to pull together as a team 59 00:02:17,750 --> 00:02:15,120 and so so i think that we were i 60 00:02:20,150 --> 00:02:17,760 i call it heightened senses heightened 61 00:02:21,990 --> 00:02:20,160 sensitivity to what was going on and i 62 00:02:23,350 --> 00:02:22,000 was certainly aware that what we were 63 00:02:25,990 --> 00:02:23,360 doing was uh 64 00:02:28,790 --> 00:02:26,000 had some dangers out there and so we we 65 00:02:30,470 --> 00:02:28,800 managed those by talking about them and 66 00:02:32,390 --> 00:02:30,480 um discussing how we're going to 67 00:02:33,270 --> 00:02:32,400 overcome those things so 68 00:02:35,270 --> 00:02:33,280 um 69 00:02:37,030 --> 00:02:35,280 i was a little bit afraid i have to tell 70 00:02:38,949 --> 00:02:37,040 you that but 71 00:02:40,470 --> 00:02:38,959 but when i looked at our team and the 72 00:02:41,509 --> 00:02:40,480 team we'd put together here in mission 73 00:02:43,670 --> 00:02:41,519 control 74 00:02:45,910 --> 00:02:43,680 i knew that we were in capable hands 75 00:02:47,990 --> 00:02:45,920 with very very smart people that knew 76 00:02:50,229 --> 00:02:48,000 this equipment and so it helped us 77 00:02:51,430 --> 00:02:50,239 overcome our fears as a team and pull 78 00:02:53,350 --> 00:02:51,440 together and 79 00:03:02,830 --> 00:02:53,360 and really turn it into something uh 80 00:03:08,309 --> 00:03:05,990 experience are there emergency escape 81 00:03:10,710 --> 00:03:08,319 vehicles for the astronauts 82 00:03:12,949 --> 00:03:10,720 yes um there are emergency escape 83 00:03:15,270 --> 00:03:12,959 vehicles so we have we we call them 84 00:03:18,790 --> 00:03:15,280 lifeboats sometimes on the space station 85 00:03:19,990 --> 00:03:18,800 but we do have enough seats returned 86 00:03:20,710 --> 00:03:20,000 seats 87 00:03:28,789 --> 00:03:20,720 to 88 00:03:30,229 --> 00:03:28,799 over the past 10 years we've been our 10 89 00:03:31,270 --> 00:03:30,239 to 12 years we've been on the space 90 00:03:33,589 --> 00:03:31,280 station 91 00:03:35,990 --> 00:03:33,599 we have soyuz vehicles right now that 92 00:03:37,990 --> 00:03:36,000 are used as our lifeboats and so 93 00:03:39,430 --> 00:03:38,000 there are six crew members on board the 94 00:03:42,869 --> 00:03:39,440 space station 95 00:03:46,229 --> 00:03:42,879 in each soyuz vehicle soyuz capsule 96 00:03:48,149 --> 00:03:46,239 it's a russian designed spaceship each 97 00:03:50,949 --> 00:03:48,159 of those soyuz capsules 98 00:03:54,149 --> 00:03:50,959 has three seats and so um i think you 99 00:03:56,149 --> 00:03:54,159 can maybe see that on your screen the um 100 00:03:57,830 --> 00:03:56,159 so there is enough room for everybody to 101 00:04:04,229 --> 00:03:57,840 have a seat and a ride home if there's 102 00:04:07,509 --> 00:04:06,149 my name is winderburn and 103 00:04:09,270 --> 00:04:07,519 how do you feel about commercial 104 00:04:12,550 --> 00:04:09,280 airlines i mean 105 00:04:15,110 --> 00:04:12,560 space stations and the space x dragon i 106 00:04:16,310 --> 00:04:15,120 think the spacex dragon is awesome 107 00:04:18,310 --> 00:04:16,320 and uh 108 00:04:20,550 --> 00:04:18,320 and i think it's really really exciting 109 00:04:23,350 --> 00:04:20,560 because uh because we're beginning we're 110 00:04:25,909 --> 00:04:23,360 beginning to see like a an an 111 00:04:28,550 --> 00:04:25,919 increased interest and a resurgence in 112 00:04:30,150 --> 00:04:28,560 the commercial area of space and so 113 00:04:31,749 --> 00:04:30,160 and so um 114 00:04:33,430 --> 00:04:31,759 nasa is pretty good at pushing the 115 00:04:35,189 --> 00:04:33,440 boundaries and going to the next 116 00:04:36,790 --> 00:04:35,199 greatest thing and and we're we're 117 00:04:39,350 --> 00:04:36,800 planning that we're planning to go out 118 00:04:42,469 --> 00:04:39,360 beyond the space station now and so now 119 00:04:44,710 --> 00:04:42,479 with the uh with all with getting people 120 00:04:47,030 --> 00:04:44,720 and cargo back and forth from the space 121 00:04:49,350 --> 00:04:47,040 station we're going to rely more and 122 00:04:51,350 --> 00:04:49,360 more on these commercial vehicles which 123 00:04:53,590 --> 00:04:51,360 i think is wonderful and of course 124 00:04:55,909 --> 00:04:53,600 you've you may have been watching uh 125 00:04:58,310 --> 00:04:55,919 nasa tv or the news even with the with 126 00:05:00,390 --> 00:04:58,320 the spacex dragon that's now 127 00:05:02,390 --> 00:05:00,400 attached to the space station and i 128 00:05:03,189 --> 00:05:02,400 think you can see a picture of it there 129 00:05:05,510 --> 00:05:03,199 and 130 00:05:07,430 --> 00:05:05,520 it's i think it's very very exciting 131 00:05:10,950 --> 00:05:07,440 because we're beginning to see 132 00:05:14,310 --> 00:05:10,960 increased interest in the commercial 133 00:05:17,029 --> 00:05:14,320 area of space and and space transports 134 00:05:19,830 --> 00:05:17,039 uh supplying uh the space station 135 00:05:21,830 --> 00:05:19,840 and eventually transport of of humans 136 00:05:23,830 --> 00:05:21,840 back and forth to the space station i 137 00:05:25,110 --> 00:05:23,840 think it's very exciting and i think 138 00:05:27,430 --> 00:05:25,120 you're going to see 139 00:05:29,350 --> 00:05:27,440 it's a really great very exciting time 140 00:05:30,629 --> 00:05:29,360 for you kids that are in school now 141 00:05:32,550 --> 00:05:30,639 because i think you're going to be 142 00:05:34,710 --> 00:05:32,560 seeing an increased interest 143 00:05:37,590 --> 00:05:34,720 in in both your uh the curriculum that 144 00:05:39,590 --> 00:05:37,600 you see in school and also a better and 145 00:05:42,310 --> 00:05:39,600 tighter connection between our 146 00:05:44,710 --> 00:05:42,320 commercial companies and our education 147 00:05:46,469 --> 00:05:44,720 uh department as well so you may see 148 00:05:48,390 --> 00:05:46,479 some additional uh things coming into 149 00:05:49,909 --> 00:05:48,400 the schools uh and from the commercial 150 00:05:53,749 --> 00:05:49,919 base as well so i think it's very 151 00:05:58,550 --> 00:05:56,309 what is the american astronomical 152 00:06:00,469 --> 00:05:58,560 society flight achievement and what did 153 00:06:02,870 --> 00:06:00,479 you do to deserve it 154 00:06:05,350 --> 00:06:02,880 oh that was an award you probably saw it 155 00:06:08,469 --> 00:06:05,360 probably saw it on my bio but it was a 156 00:06:09,430 --> 00:06:08,479 it was an award um that's a society that 157 00:06:11,670 --> 00:06:09,440 um 158 00:06:14,629 --> 00:06:11,680 uh 159 00:06:15,270 --> 00:06:14,639 focuses on space and space exploration 160 00:06:21,510 --> 00:06:15,280 and 161 00:06:24,230 --> 00:06:21,520 to get there 162 00:06:26,790 --> 00:06:24,240 and back in 2007 we had 163 00:06:28,950 --> 00:06:26,800 i was on board the station on i flew up 164 00:06:32,950 --> 00:06:28,960 on the space shuttle discovery 165 00:06:35,270 --> 00:06:32,960 and we had um a torn solar array we 166 00:06:37,510 --> 00:06:35,280 tried to deploy the solar array that we 167 00:06:38,790 --> 00:06:37,520 moved from one part of the station to 168 00:06:42,150 --> 00:06:38,800 another 169 00:06:45,110 --> 00:06:42,160 and um when we went to deploy it it tore 170 00:06:46,550 --> 00:06:45,120 much like a like a piece of paper almost 171 00:06:48,550 --> 00:06:46,560 and we were worried that it was going to 172 00:06:50,790 --> 00:06:48,560 tear completely in half 173 00:06:53,670 --> 00:06:50,800 and so rather than 174 00:06:56,710 --> 00:06:53,680 continue to deploy process we stopped it 175 00:06:58,309 --> 00:06:56,720 and we built actually like stitches you 176 00:07:00,309 --> 00:06:58,319 may have some of you there in the room 177 00:07:02,550 --> 00:07:00,319 may have had stitches before in your 178 00:07:05,589 --> 00:07:02,560 skin you just kind of sew something up 179 00:07:08,870 --> 00:07:05,599 or sewing a piece of material 180 00:07:11,270 --> 00:07:08,880 we we made stitches inside of the we 181 00:07:13,430 --> 00:07:11,280 took whatever material we could find and 182 00:07:15,589 --> 00:07:13,440 our mission control team helped us find 183 00:07:16,469 --> 00:07:15,599 locate those things on board the space 184 00:07:18,150 --> 00:07:16,479 station 185 00:07:20,710 --> 00:07:18,160 we made these stitches and we went 186 00:07:22,390 --> 00:07:20,720 outside and we sewed up the solar array 187 00:07:25,110 --> 00:07:22,400 and so um 188 00:07:27,670 --> 00:07:25,120 so when we got back uh it was it was 189 00:07:29,830 --> 00:07:27,680 pretty daring feat and of course for us 190 00:07:31,990 --> 00:07:29,840 on board the space station we just did 191 00:07:34,950 --> 00:07:32,000 like we were told and we had the really 192 00:07:37,430 --> 00:07:34,960 really smart and very very uh 193 00:07:38,309 --> 00:07:37,440 creative people here on the ground that 194 00:07:40,230 --> 00:07:38,319 um 195 00:07:42,309 --> 00:07:40,240 that came up with this solution and so 196 00:07:43,990 --> 00:07:42,319 they helped us build these things and we 197 00:07:45,189 --> 00:07:44,000 fixed that and so when we got back to 198 00:07:45,909 --> 00:07:45,199 earth 199 00:07:49,029 --> 00:07:45,919 the 200 00:07:52,230 --> 00:07:49,039 astronomical society 201 00:07:55,189 --> 00:07:52,240 issued an award to our eva team 202 00:07:58,070 --> 00:07:55,199 for the repair of this solar array so 203 00:07:59,909 --> 00:07:58,080 thank you 204 00:08:01,990 --> 00:07:59,919 are you going to be part of the mars 205 00:08:04,390 --> 00:08:02,000 mission 206 00:08:06,869 --> 00:08:04,400 well i'll probably be too old but what's 207 00:08:09,270 --> 00:08:06,879 exciting is um uh you know i think we 208 00:08:12,150 --> 00:08:09,280 we're we're hoping to go to mars 209 00:08:14,869 --> 00:08:12,160 what maybe 25 or 30 years something like 210 00:08:16,869 --> 00:08:14,879 that um i'm hoping that we'll see i'm 211 00:08:18,629 --> 00:08:16,879 hoping i'm i'll probably be in a rocking 212 00:08:20,469 --> 00:08:18,639 chair with a glass of 213 00:08:22,390 --> 00:08:20,479 sweet tea or something somewhere 214 00:08:24,550 --> 00:08:22,400 watching but what's very exciting i 215 00:08:26,950 --> 00:08:24,560 think about usually astronauts when 216 00:08:29,270 --> 00:08:26,960 they're selected to fly in space 217 00:08:31,029 --> 00:08:29,280 they're usually in their 30s maybe like 218 00:08:32,790 --> 00:08:31,039 mid 30s or something like that so you 219 00:08:35,829 --> 00:08:32,800 know what's very exciting 220 00:08:37,269 --> 00:08:35,839 is that the first people that we'll see 221 00:08:40,149 --> 00:08:37,279 on mars 222 00:08:42,630 --> 00:08:40,159 are probably somewhere in our classrooms 223 00:08:44,710 --> 00:08:42,640 right now maybe somebody there in the 224 00:08:46,630 --> 00:08:44,720 classroom you're sitting in right now 225 00:08:49,350 --> 00:08:46,640 maybe somebody in that very room will be 226 00:08:51,350 --> 00:08:49,360 the first person that we'll see 227 00:08:53,509 --> 00:08:51,360 on the surface of mars and that that's 228 00:08:56,790 --> 00:08:53,519 very exciting to me you know thinking 229 00:08:58,070 --> 00:08:56,800 that maybe 25 or 30 years in the future 230 00:08:59,509 --> 00:08:58,080 that maybe right there where you're 231 00:09:00,389 --> 00:08:59,519 sitting there's an astronaut in that 232 00:09:02,310 --> 00:09:00,399 room 233 00:09:04,630 --> 00:09:02,320 and you'll be sitting here 30 years from 234 00:09:06,150 --> 00:09:04,640 now and i'll be in my rocking chair and 235 00:09:10,230 --> 00:09:06,160 listening to you tell the story about 236 00:09:15,430 --> 00:09:12,230 that sounds good 237 00:09:17,750 --> 00:09:15,440 how have 178 days in outer space affect 238 00:09:20,550 --> 00:09:17,760 your body your health oh that's a really 239 00:09:22,310 --> 00:09:20,560 good question 178 days in space there 240 00:09:26,070 --> 00:09:22,320 are a lot of there are some things that 241 00:09:28,230 --> 00:09:26,080 i was anticipating and i expected 242 00:09:30,630 --> 00:09:28,240 your your a little bit your vestibular 243 00:09:32,710 --> 00:09:30,640 system that kind of helps you balance 244 00:09:35,269 --> 00:09:32,720 while you're standing up was was 245 00:09:37,110 --> 00:09:35,279 affected and i was expecting that 246 00:09:39,269 --> 00:09:37,120 i was expecting a little bit of you know 247 00:09:41,509 --> 00:09:39,279 a little bit of queasiness in my stomach 248 00:09:43,590 --> 00:09:41,519 when when i got you back used to gravity 249 00:09:45,910 --> 00:09:43,600 and and i i had a little bit of that and 250 00:09:48,310 --> 00:09:45,920 i expected that but there were some 251 00:09:50,310 --> 00:09:48,320 things that i didn't really expect one 252 00:09:53,670 --> 00:09:50,320 one my vision changed a little bit you 253 00:09:56,310 --> 00:09:53,680 may have talked in your classrooms about 254 00:09:57,509 --> 00:09:56,320 the effect long long term effects on 255 00:09:59,829 --> 00:09:57,519 vision 256 00:10:01,590 --> 00:09:59,839 for long duration space flight and it's 257 00:10:03,750 --> 00:10:01,600 an interesting phenomena that we're 258 00:10:05,750 --> 00:10:03,760 still trying to understand in the 259 00:10:08,790 --> 00:10:05,760 medical field and 260 00:10:10,870 --> 00:10:08,800 essentially the mechanism there is your 261 00:10:12,710 --> 00:10:10,880 fluid shifts in your body and i had like 262 00:10:15,590 --> 00:10:12,720 increased pressure 263 00:10:17,430 --> 00:10:15,600 inside of my head and when you have that 264 00:10:19,269 --> 00:10:17,440 increased pressure 265 00:10:20,790 --> 00:10:19,279 it pushes on the back of your eyes and 266 00:10:21,990 --> 00:10:20,800 actually affects your optic nerve as 267 00:10:24,230 --> 00:10:22,000 well and so 268 00:10:26,389 --> 00:10:24,240 so we didn't i didn't really expect that 269 00:10:28,069 --> 00:10:26,399 and then and now so it's been it's sort 270 00:10:29,350 --> 00:10:28,079 of a new avenue that we're looking at 271 00:10:31,590 --> 00:10:29,360 medically 272 00:10:33,110 --> 00:10:31,600 to fly long duration in space 273 00:10:35,269 --> 00:10:33,120 another thing that was really surprising 274 00:10:36,949 --> 00:10:35,279 it was actually kind of funny was when 275 00:10:38,150 --> 00:10:36,959 you're on the space station everything 276 00:10:41,030 --> 00:10:38,160 is floating 277 00:10:41,990 --> 00:10:41,040 and so you have very little reference 278 00:10:43,910 --> 00:10:42,000 for like 279 00:10:45,910 --> 00:10:43,920 speeds like different kinds of speeds 280 00:10:47,829 --> 00:10:45,920 and things so like when you're driving 281 00:10:50,069 --> 00:10:47,839 or even when you're out walking or 282 00:10:51,030 --> 00:10:50,079 riding a bike or something like that you 283 00:10:53,190 --> 00:10:51,040 have 284 00:10:54,710 --> 00:10:53,200 other people that are walking maybe the 285 00:10:55,829 --> 00:10:54,720 other direction or people that are 286 00:10:57,509 --> 00:10:55,839 crossing 287 00:10:59,190 --> 00:10:57,519 and of course when we're driving we have 288 00:11:00,870 --> 00:10:59,200 stop lights and stop signs and things 289 00:11:03,110 --> 00:11:00,880 and you have vehicles that are coming in 290 00:11:06,150 --> 00:11:03,120 the other way and going and there and 291 00:11:07,829 --> 00:11:06,160 everybody's at a different speed and so 292 00:11:10,230 --> 00:11:07,839 your brain gets used to everything 293 00:11:12,710 --> 00:11:10,240 floating so when you come back after six 294 00:11:14,710 --> 00:11:12,720 months it's really hard for your brain 295 00:11:17,750 --> 00:11:14,720 to kind of 296 00:11:19,750 --> 00:11:17,760 regain that that ability to understand 297 00:11:21,509 --> 00:11:19,760 like closure rates and opening rates 298 00:11:23,350 --> 00:11:21,519 when you're say when you're driving they 299 00:11:25,030 --> 00:11:23,360 don't let us drive for about 45 days 300 00:11:28,310 --> 00:11:25,040 which is really really good 301 00:11:30,470 --> 00:11:28,320 so but um but i remember even even 60 302 00:11:32,710 --> 00:11:30,480 days after i landed when i first started 303 00:11:35,190 --> 00:11:32,720 to drive a vehicle and i 304 00:11:37,990 --> 00:11:35,200 my daughter was sitting beside me and um 305 00:11:39,829 --> 00:11:38,000 and i saw a red light about uh maybe a 306 00:11:41,910 --> 00:11:39,839 quarter or half a mile up in front of me 307 00:11:43,269 --> 00:11:41,920 and i i quickly tapped the brakes and 308 00:11:45,350 --> 00:11:43,279 she said dad what are you doing and i 309 00:11:47,430 --> 00:11:45,360 said well i got a red light she goes but 310 00:11:48,630 --> 00:11:47,440 it's like a mile away you know so 311 00:11:50,710 --> 00:11:48,640 but on the space station you're 312 00:11:52,710 --> 00:11:50,720 traveling so fast and and things are 313 00:11:54,230 --> 00:11:52,720 floating inside that it's hard to get 314 00:11:56,790 --> 00:11:54,240 that relative 315 00:11:58,230 --> 00:11:56,800 speed sense of speed and so uh so that 316 00:11:59,509 --> 00:11:58,240 was an interesting phenomena that 317 00:12:01,269 --> 00:11:59,519 happens to your body when you're in 318 00:12:04,069 --> 00:12:01,279 space 319 00:12:07,030 --> 00:12:04,079 is that why you wear glasses 320 00:12:08,150 --> 00:12:07,040 yes actually i wear these now uh there's 321 00:12:10,550 --> 00:12:08,160 probably some people in the room that 322 00:12:12,310 --> 00:12:10,560 wear glasses i wear these now 323 00:12:14,550 --> 00:12:12,320 they help me read but when i got back 324 00:12:16,389 --> 00:12:14,560 from space 325 00:12:20,629 --> 00:12:16,399 the 326 00:12:23,269 --> 00:12:20,639 everything for me everything was just a 327 00:12:25,269 --> 00:12:23,279 little slightly out of focus and so um 328 00:12:27,110 --> 00:12:25,279 so now i wear these do i look good in 329 00:12:28,150 --> 00:12:27,120 them 330 00:12:29,509 --> 00:12:28,160 so 331 00:12:33,269 --> 00:12:29,519 thank you 332 00:12:35,750 --> 00:12:33,279 unfortunately um all the things that we 333 00:12:38,790 --> 00:12:35,760 do in space you can do with glasses on 334 00:12:40,629 --> 00:12:38,800 so so it's it's not that uh not that 335 00:12:42,310 --> 00:12:40,639 difficult to adapt to 336 00:12:44,389 --> 00:12:42,320 um but uh 337 00:12:46,310 --> 00:12:44,399 but it's hard for it was hard for me to 338 00:12:47,990 --> 00:12:46,320 kind of refocus uh 339 00:12:49,030 --> 00:12:48,000 visually and it took me about a year and 340 00:12:51,269 --> 00:12:49,040 a half 341 00:12:52,470 --> 00:12:51,279 for my vision to come back to where it 342 00:12:54,310 --> 00:12:52,480 was stable 343 00:12:56,550 --> 00:12:54,320 and it didn't come all the way back but 344 00:12:58,550 --> 00:12:56,560 it did have some effects and i i 345 00:12:59,509 --> 00:12:58,560 actually was very happy that i was able 346 00:13:07,110 --> 00:12:59,519 to 347 00:13:09,829 --> 00:13:07,120 here at at nasa and also uh 348 00:13:11,590 --> 00:13:09,839 across our nation and acro and globally 349 00:13:14,230 --> 00:13:11,600 you know to help us understand this 350 00:13:15,509 --> 00:13:14,240 phenomenon so when we send like somebody 351 00:13:17,990 --> 00:13:15,519 sitting in that room that's going to go 352 00:13:21,110 --> 00:13:18,000 to mars first person to mars that may be 353 00:13:22,150 --> 00:13:21,120 a three-year trip out into space and 354 00:13:22,949 --> 00:13:22,160 back 355 00:13:27,350 --> 00:13:22,959 and 356 00:13:29,750 --> 00:13:27,360 vision 357 00:13:31,509 --> 00:13:29,760 changes with only six months in space 358 00:13:33,509 --> 00:13:31,519 maybe we really need to take a hard look 359 00:13:34,389 --> 00:13:33,519 at this and so so i feel like i've 360 00:13:38,870 --> 00:13:34,399 contributed 361 00:13:40,949 --> 00:13:38,880 thank you 362 00:13:41,990 --> 00:13:40,959 how does space travel affect the aging 363 00:13:46,629 --> 00:13:42,000 process 364 00:13:48,230 --> 00:13:46,639 well uh there is a fountain of youth out 365 00:13:49,509 --> 00:13:48,240 there 366 00:13:51,990 --> 00:13:49,519 the 367 00:13:54,790 --> 00:13:52,000 well interestingly enough um 368 00:13:57,350 --> 00:13:54,800 in some ways it makes you feel 369 00:13:58,870 --> 00:13:57,360 it makes you feel a little younger 370 00:14:01,189 --> 00:13:58,880 because you don't have 371 00:14:02,470 --> 00:14:01,199 you don't have gravity now so you you 372 00:14:03,829 --> 00:14:02,480 sleep better 373 00:14:05,030 --> 00:14:03,839 i think because you don't have pressure 374 00:14:06,150 --> 00:14:05,040 points now 375 00:14:08,790 --> 00:14:06,160 you don't 376 00:14:10,150 --> 00:14:08,800 i very rarely get a sore back or a sore 377 00:14:11,910 --> 00:14:10,160 neck or something like that because 378 00:14:13,509 --> 00:14:11,920 you're you're kind of floating the 379 00:14:15,350 --> 00:14:13,519 sensation is like 380 00:14:17,990 --> 00:14:15,360 if you've ever been in a swimming pool 381 00:14:19,910 --> 00:14:18,000 like a nice warm swimming pool and you 382 00:14:22,230 --> 00:14:19,920 just kind of close your eyes and just 383 00:14:23,269 --> 00:14:22,240 float that feeling that's what it feels 384 00:14:25,990 --> 00:14:23,279 like 385 00:14:28,629 --> 00:14:26,000 all day every day in space and so so 386 00:14:31,030 --> 00:14:28,639 that process i think it helps your body 387 00:14:32,629 --> 00:14:31,040 relax a little bit so i don't 388 00:14:34,710 --> 00:14:32,639 i don't think it makes you get any 389 00:14:36,389 --> 00:14:34,720 younger but it certainly like reduces a 390 00:14:38,230 --> 00:14:36,399 little bit of the stresses normally that 391 00:14:40,949 --> 00:14:38,240 you'd face on your body now 392 00:14:43,509 --> 00:14:40,959 there are some ways that actually 393 00:14:45,269 --> 00:14:43,519 that sort of accelerate certain things 394 00:14:47,590 --> 00:14:45,279 in the aging process and one of those 395 00:14:49,590 --> 00:14:47,600 things that we're really looking hard at 396 00:14:51,910 --> 00:14:49,600 is bone loss you know bone 397 00:14:52,790 --> 00:14:51,920 demineralization and stuff like this 398 00:14:56,069 --> 00:14:52,800 where 399 00:14:57,670 --> 00:14:56,079 we it speeds up the process of of uh 400 00:15:00,069 --> 00:14:57,680 breakdown of bone structure and of 401 00:15:01,990 --> 00:15:00,079 course we're trying to develop 402 00:15:03,189 --> 00:15:02,000 exercises and things like that that we 403 00:15:05,430 --> 00:15:03,199 can do 404 00:15:07,030 --> 00:15:05,440 that will help us kind of stave off the 405 00:15:09,430 --> 00:15:07,040 loss of bone 406 00:15:11,910 --> 00:15:09,440 density and things like that and so so 407 00:15:13,670 --> 00:15:11,920 in those kind of processes 408 00:15:16,389 --> 00:15:13,680 like bone loss 409 00:15:19,110 --> 00:15:16,399 the aging the aging process is sort of 410 00:15:21,030 --> 00:15:19,120 sped up a little bit artificially 411 00:15:22,310 --> 00:15:21,040 but that helps us medically because we 412 00:15:24,629 --> 00:15:22,320 can actually 413 00:15:27,990 --> 00:15:24,639 use the astronaut that's experiencing 414 00:15:29,829 --> 00:15:28,000 bone loss sort of like someone has like 415 00:15:31,749 --> 00:15:29,839 maybe like osteoporosis or something 416 00:15:34,470 --> 00:15:31,759 like that that actually has bone loss 417 00:15:36,870 --> 00:15:34,480 here on earth we can actually use the 418 00:15:38,389 --> 00:15:36,880 astronauts in studies and science 419 00:15:41,430 --> 00:15:38,399 experiments to 420 00:15:44,150 --> 00:15:41,440 to try to help us understand how that 421 00:15:46,710 --> 00:15:44,160 process takes place and how to how to 422 00:15:48,790 --> 00:15:46,720 treat people here on earth as well so 423 00:15:50,870 --> 00:15:48,800 so it's all part of the the science that 424 00:15:52,470 --> 00:15:50,880 we're gaining on board the station you 425 00:15:54,870 --> 00:15:52,480 do get a little bit taller though yes 426 00:15:56,470 --> 00:15:54,880 you do you do actually because of that 427 00:15:57,670 --> 00:15:56,480 you know we have gravity pulling us down 428 00:15:59,749 --> 00:15:57,680 to the ground so when you're standing up 429 00:16:01,430 --> 00:15:59,759 right here on earth you have you you're 430 00:16:03,350 --> 00:16:01,440 stuck your feet feel like you're you're 431 00:16:04,870 --> 00:16:03,360 probably sitting in chairs right now so 432 00:16:07,030 --> 00:16:04,880 so you think about it and you're you're 433 00:16:08,710 --> 00:16:07,040 just kind of stuck to the bottom of your 434 00:16:10,629 --> 00:16:08,720 chair and so you actually your spine is 435 00:16:12,870 --> 00:16:10,639 compressed a little bit so when you go 436 00:16:14,470 --> 00:16:12,880 to space and you remove gravity your 437 00:16:15,910 --> 00:16:14,480 body kind of stretches out a little bit 438 00:16:17,749 --> 00:16:15,920 and yeah i actually grew about an inch 439 00:16:19,749 --> 00:16:17,759 and a half when i was in space i'd take 440 00:16:21,110 --> 00:16:19,759 that of course yeah but i wasn't able to 441 00:16:24,550 --> 00:16:21,120 keep that when i got back when i got 442 00:16:27,509 --> 00:16:24,560 back i i after about 15 days i shrunk 443 00:16:28,870 --> 00:16:27,519 down to my normal size so 444 00:16:31,590 --> 00:16:28,880 amazing 445 00:16:34,230 --> 00:16:31,600 why did you choose georgia tech to study 446 00:16:40,310 --> 00:16:34,240 aerospace engineering because i love 447 00:16:45,590 --> 00:16:42,310 do we have any tech any tech fans there 448 00:16:50,550 --> 00:16:47,269 awesome awesome 449 00:16:52,470 --> 00:16:50,560 well i i the reason i chose georgia tech 450 00:16:54,310 --> 00:16:52,480 um for the at the period of time they 451 00:16:55,910 --> 00:16:54,320 were georgia tech was a center of 452 00:16:58,470 --> 00:16:55,920 excellence for 453 00:17:00,470 --> 00:16:58,480 for rotary wing uh technology an 454 00:17:03,030 --> 00:17:00,480 aerospace field and and 455 00:17:05,189 --> 00:17:03,040 at the time i was an active duty army 456 00:17:08,549 --> 00:17:05,199 pilot and so 457 00:17:11,270 --> 00:17:08,559 the army sent me there to study 458 00:17:12,309 --> 00:17:11,280 rotorcraft our helicopters and vertical 459 00:17:14,309 --> 00:17:12,319 lift 460 00:17:15,909 --> 00:17:14,319 technology and so 461 00:17:18,549 --> 00:17:15,919 and so i don't know if you knew this but 462 00:17:20,870 --> 00:17:18,559 georgia tech is a center of excellence 463 00:17:22,630 --> 00:17:20,880 for rotary wing technology and vertical 464 00:17:25,510 --> 00:17:22,640 lift technology so 465 00:17:26,630 --> 00:17:25,520 so a lot of my um my thoughts on how 466 00:17:32,070 --> 00:17:26,640 making 467 00:17:33,029 --> 00:17:32,080 can that can maneuver like a helicopter 468 00:17:35,430 --> 00:17:33,039 or 469 00:17:37,430 --> 00:17:35,440 aircraft like a helicopter maneuvering 470 00:17:38,230 --> 00:17:37,440 or some sort of hovercraft 471 00:17:39,830 --> 00:17:38,240 um 472 00:17:41,350 --> 00:17:39,840 georgia tech is a center of excellence 473 00:17:42,630 --> 00:17:41,360 for that so that's why i chose georgia 474 00:17:47,350 --> 00:17:42,640 tech 475 00:17:48,710 --> 00:17:47,360 and besides they're the ramblin wreck 476 00:17:51,190 --> 00:17:48,720 there's probably some georgia fans in 477 00:17:51,990 --> 00:17:51,200 the room that are not smiling right now 478 00:17:53,029 --> 00:17:52,000 oh 479 00:17:55,430 --> 00:17:53,039 a few 480 00:18:00,789 --> 00:17:57,909 go ahead tori in your bio it said that 481 00:18:03,029 --> 00:18:00,799 you got the russian medal of marriage 482 00:18:04,390 --> 00:18:03,039 what did you do to get that 483 00:18:06,150 --> 00:18:04,400 well that was actually you know that was 484 00:18:08,470 --> 00:18:06,160 actually kind of a surprise and when 485 00:18:10,150 --> 00:18:08,480 that medal was awarded to me it was by 486 00:18:12,310 --> 00:18:10,160 given to me by the 487 00:18:15,029 --> 00:18:12,320 russian ambassador to the u.s which was 488 00:18:17,909 --> 00:18:15,039 really cool and so um 489 00:18:20,710 --> 00:18:17,919 but i participated and when i launched 490 00:18:23,669 --> 00:18:20,720 the space in 2010 i launched on a 491 00:18:25,830 --> 00:18:23,679 russian soyuz rocket and so i went to 492 00:18:27,350 --> 00:18:25,840 space and operated 493 00:18:29,590 --> 00:18:27,360 in this 494 00:18:32,390 --> 00:18:29,600 russian spaceship and then came home in 495 00:18:34,470 --> 00:18:32,400 that very same capsule and so and and of 496 00:18:36,310 --> 00:18:34,480 course in order to get a chance to do 497 00:18:37,669 --> 00:18:36,320 that you go through a lot of training 498 00:18:40,870 --> 00:18:37,679 and a lot of um 499 00:18:43,909 --> 00:18:40,880 uh integrated training and um 500 00:18:46,310 --> 00:18:43,919 and uh and uh study with the russians 501 00:18:48,710 --> 00:18:46,320 and with the russian space agency and 502 00:18:50,950 --> 00:18:48,720 also with their uh with their great 503 00:18:54,789 --> 00:18:50,960 engineers over there and everything so 504 00:18:56,789 --> 00:18:54,799 so it was sort of a uh uh a medal that 505 00:18:59,909 --> 00:18:56,799 was given to those astronauts that had 506 00:19:01,909 --> 00:18:59,919 done work uh preparing to fly on the 507 00:19:03,909 --> 00:19:01,919 soyuz vehicle and then completing a 508 00:19:05,990 --> 00:19:03,919 flight on the vehicle so 509 00:19:08,390 --> 00:19:06,000 so uh i i just 510 00:19:10,630 --> 00:19:08,400 i studied i learned my russian which was 511 00:19:12,549 --> 00:19:10,640 hard for me probably i mean that's 512 00:19:14,630 --> 00:19:12,559 probably the hardest thing uh that i had 513 00:19:16,470 --> 00:19:14,640 to do is learn russian it was really 514 00:19:18,630 --> 00:19:16,480 difficult for me but um 515 00:19:20,789 --> 00:19:18,640 uh but learning that system and flying 516 00:19:22,310 --> 00:19:20,799 on that vehicle and and that's the 517 00:19:24,710 --> 00:19:22,320 reason they gave me that medal and i was 518 00:19:27,510 --> 00:19:24,720 very honored 519 00:19:29,510 --> 00:19:27,520 excellent great go ahead okay how is it 520 00:19:31,510 --> 00:19:29,520 similar to live underwater compared to 521 00:19:33,510 --> 00:19:31,520 space 522 00:19:35,990 --> 00:19:33,520 a very very similar underwater you know 523 00:19:38,870 --> 00:19:36,000 we you probably have seen we do our 524 00:19:40,710 --> 00:19:38,880 space walk training underwater 525 00:19:43,909 --> 00:19:40,720 we also have 526 00:19:46,470 --> 00:19:43,919 this 527 00:19:48,390 --> 00:19:46,480 extreme environments training that we 528 00:19:51,830 --> 00:19:48,400 where we are in the aquarius habitat 529 00:19:53,510 --> 00:19:51,840 underwater because you can take in 530 00:19:56,230 --> 00:19:53,520 underwater you can 531 00:19:59,350 --> 00:19:56,240 sort of replicate what it feels like in 532 00:20:01,430 --> 00:19:59,360 space now it's actually much easier to 533 00:20:03,909 --> 00:20:01,440 live and work in space and out on a 534 00:20:05,190 --> 00:20:03,919 spacewalk in space than it is in the 535 00:20:07,990 --> 00:20:05,200 pool 536 00:20:11,110 --> 00:20:08,000 can 537 00:20:13,990 --> 00:20:11,120 most assuredly do it in space and so 538 00:20:15,750 --> 00:20:14,000 we we in the pool we actually 539 00:20:17,830 --> 00:20:15,760 uh go down to the level where we're 540 00:20:20,549 --> 00:20:17,840 gonna work in these in our big suits and 541 00:20:22,390 --> 00:20:20,559 they get us neutrally buoyant so it 542 00:20:25,669 --> 00:20:22,400 feels like you're floating 543 00:20:27,669 --> 00:20:25,679 so they they add weights or foam to your 544 00:20:29,830 --> 00:20:27,679 to your suit and so they they hold you 545 00:20:31,590 --> 00:20:29,840 out and so you don't rise to the surface 546 00:20:34,549 --> 00:20:31,600 and you don't drop to the bottom so they 547 00:20:36,789 --> 00:20:34,559 get you what's called neutrally buoyant 548 00:20:39,510 --> 00:20:36,799 and that pool is actually in a place we 549 00:20:41,590 --> 00:20:39,520 call the neutral buoyancy laboratory 550 00:20:43,430 --> 00:20:41,600 which is right outside of johnson space 551 00:20:45,750 --> 00:20:43,440 center here in houston we do all of our 552 00:20:48,789 --> 00:20:45,760 spacewalk training there and because 553 00:20:51,110 --> 00:20:48,799 it's a great analogy to to floating 554 00:20:53,350 --> 00:20:51,120 around in space and of course in the 555 00:20:55,190 --> 00:20:53,360 pool you still have gravity so if you 556 00:20:57,510 --> 00:20:55,200 turn on your in your suit if you turn on 557 00:20:59,990 --> 00:20:57,520 your head in the pool you you can feel 558 00:21:01,029 --> 00:21:00,000 that you can so it doesn't feel real 559 00:21:02,710 --> 00:21:01,039 comfortable it feels like you're 560 00:21:04,630 --> 00:21:02,720 standing on your head and so you still 561 00:21:07,029 --> 00:21:04,640 have that feeling in the pool 562 00:21:08,950 --> 00:21:07,039 and you also have drag so when you move 563 00:21:10,630 --> 00:21:08,960 your arm through the water 564 00:21:12,710 --> 00:21:10,640 you have you can feel the drag of the 565 00:21:14,870 --> 00:21:12,720 water on on your arms and when you're 566 00:21:16,630 --> 00:21:14,880 trying to move your body and stuff so 567 00:21:18,630 --> 00:21:16,640 but when you get the space all of that 568 00:21:20,630 --> 00:21:18,640 is gone and so it's actually much easier 569 00:21:23,190 --> 00:21:20,640 to move around in space so 570 00:21:28,390 --> 00:21:23,200 it's a great analogy that we use to 571 00:21:33,110 --> 00:21:30,630 does curiosity's memory glitch affect 572 00:21:35,510 --> 00:21:33,120 your current data 573 00:21:37,190 --> 00:21:35,520 um well i i'm not privy to all that data 574 00:21:40,149 --> 00:21:37,200 but uh um 575 00:21:41,510 --> 00:21:40,159 i i'm sure that a memory glitch probably 576 00:21:45,029 --> 00:21:41,520 did 577 00:21:47,350 --> 00:21:45,039 the data we were bringing down or 578 00:21:49,590 --> 00:21:47,360 gathering and then also telemetering 579 00:21:51,909 --> 00:21:49,600 back to earth uh but i believe that 580 00:21:53,830 --> 00:21:51,919 they've solved that uh that issue now i 581 00:21:55,830 --> 00:21:53,840 i don't really have that all the details 582 00:21:57,590 --> 00:21:55,840 on that but 583 00:21:59,110 --> 00:21:57,600 what we usually do in our spaceships 584 00:22:01,430 --> 00:21:59,120 like this and i believe was the case 585 00:22:04,789 --> 00:22:01,440 with curiosity that we we build in some 586 00:22:07,029 --> 00:22:04,799 redundancy um so we can we can actually 587 00:22:09,990 --> 00:22:07,039 like swap to a different channel or a 588 00:22:12,470 --> 00:22:10,000 different string and then and then 589 00:22:14,789 --> 00:22:12,480 kind of try to fix or repair the the 590 00:22:17,750 --> 00:22:14,799 string that we had a glitch on and so i 591 00:22:18,630 --> 00:22:17,760 really don't know the details on that um 592 00:22:21,510 --> 00:22:18,640 uh 593 00:22:23,590 --> 00:22:21,520 but um i the last i heard that we were 594 00:22:25,110 --> 00:22:23,600 we've gotten back full functionality of 595 00:22:26,630 --> 00:22:25,120 our of our data so yeah one of the cool 596 00:22:27,909 --> 00:22:26,640 things about working at nasa is that 597 00:22:29,990 --> 00:22:27,919 there's different centers across the 598 00:22:31,990 --> 00:22:30,000 united states so there's some in 599 00:22:33,190 --> 00:22:32,000 alabama some in mississippi and out in 600 00:22:34,470 --> 00:22:33,200 california there's a place called the 601 00:22:36,230 --> 00:22:34,480 jet propulsion laboratory and that's 602 00:22:37,990 --> 00:22:36,240 sort of the home of all the mars rovers 603 00:22:39,830 --> 00:22:38,000 including curiosity so 604 00:22:41,110 --> 00:22:39,840 there's a room sort of a mini mission 605 00:22:43,270 --> 00:22:41,120 control out there that's where they 606 00:22:44,710 --> 00:22:43,280 actually drive and get the data down 607 00:22:47,029 --> 00:22:44,720 from curiosity so those guys are out 608 00:22:50,789 --> 00:22:47,039 there watching that uh 24 hours a day 609 00:22:56,549 --> 00:22:54,390 what foreign languages do you speak 610 00:22:59,190 --> 00:22:56,559 well um 611 00:23:01,190 --> 00:22:59,200 i did speak pretty good russian but it's 612 00:23:03,029 --> 00:23:01,200 it's kind of um you know when you don't 613 00:23:05,270 --> 00:23:03,039 practice it i don't know how many there 614 00:23:07,430 --> 00:23:05,280 in the room speak a foreign language but 615 00:23:09,909 --> 00:23:07,440 you know if you don't keep practiced at 616 00:23:12,390 --> 00:23:09,919 it it's difficult to keep that 617 00:23:15,029 --> 00:23:12,400 to keep that cutting edge you know so um 618 00:23:16,070 --> 00:23:15,039 i would say right now i speak english 619 00:23:18,630 --> 00:23:16,080 and uh 620 00:23:20,630 --> 00:23:18,640 and i speak a little bit of russian 621 00:23:23,110 --> 00:23:20,640 enough to get by i think i think i could 622 00:23:24,870 --> 00:23:23,120 survive you know on on the street and if 623 00:23:27,590 --> 00:23:24,880 you jump drop me off on the street in 624 00:23:29,430 --> 00:23:27,600 moscow i could probably survive but 625 00:23:30,870 --> 00:23:29,440 people probably laughing at me but they 626 00:23:32,870 --> 00:23:30,880 would understand what i was trying to 627 00:23:35,430 --> 00:23:32,880 say 628 00:23:37,590 --> 00:23:35,440 and clark creek stem academy we've got 629 00:23:38,549 --> 00:23:37,600 about time for one more question 630 00:23:41,590 --> 00:23:38,559 okay 631 00:23:47,750 --> 00:23:41,600 do you believe in extraterrestrials 632 00:23:51,750 --> 00:23:50,390 oh that's a loaded question 633 00:23:53,750 --> 00:23:51,760 i'm glad it's the last question now i'm 634 00:23:56,310 --> 00:23:53,760 just kidding um 635 00:23:57,830 --> 00:23:56,320 you know i i uh 636 00:23:59,430 --> 00:23:57,840 i've never first of all let me say that 637 00:24:00,870 --> 00:23:59,440 i've never seen an extraterrestrial i've 638 00:24:04,230 --> 00:24:00,880 never seen an alien or anything like 639 00:24:08,149 --> 00:24:04,240 that and i've never seen a ufo um but i 640 00:24:10,149 --> 00:24:08,159 do believe i do believe that we um 641 00:24:12,710 --> 00:24:10,159 that there are probably 642 00:24:15,110 --> 00:24:12,720 most likely other life forms out there 643 00:24:18,950 --> 00:24:15,120 it might not be something that we like 644 00:24:20,789 --> 00:24:18,960 understand visually as a life form 645 00:24:22,950 --> 00:24:20,799 so i um 646 00:24:25,029 --> 00:24:22,960 i don't think i believe in like 647 00:24:27,110 --> 00:24:25,039 extraterrestrials like an et the movie 648 00:24:29,830 --> 00:24:27,120 and stuff like that you know 649 00:24:33,029 --> 00:24:29,840 but i do i do uh find very very 650 00:24:35,190 --> 00:24:33,039 fascinating these you know earth-like 651 00:24:37,750 --> 00:24:35,200 planets that we're finding with with 652 00:24:40,070 --> 00:24:37,760 hubble and the other telescopes that you 653 00:24:43,669 --> 00:24:40,080 know given the right uh circumstances 654 00:24:46,070 --> 00:24:43,679 that we could find like organics in um 655 00:24:47,590 --> 00:24:46,080 in what we would refer to as soil or 656 00:24:49,909 --> 00:24:47,600 something like that that 657 00:24:51,669 --> 00:24:49,919 and maybe even a partial atmosphere 658 00:24:53,430 --> 00:24:51,679 where where 659 00:24:55,590 --> 00:24:53,440 organic life or 660 00:24:56,710 --> 00:24:55,600 self uh you know single cell kind of 661 00:24:58,230 --> 00:24:56,720 life or 662 00:25:00,630 --> 00:24:58,240 maybe even something a little more 663 00:25:02,149 --> 00:25:00,640 advanced could exist or plants or 664 00:25:03,190 --> 00:25:02,159 something like that so 665 00:25:05,029 --> 00:25:03,200 um 666 00:25:06,950 --> 00:25:05,039 you know i'm not a i'm not a planetary 667 00:25:08,310 --> 00:25:06,960 scientist and i'm not a you know a 668 00:25:10,710 --> 00:25:08,320 chemist but 669 00:25:12,390 --> 00:25:10,720 uh but i i have to believe that uh 670 00:25:14,230 --> 00:25:12,400 something like that probably is 671 00:25:16,710 --> 00:25:14,240 occurring somewhere somewhere in our in 672 00:25:18,870 --> 00:25:16,720 our uh in our universe so 673 00:25:21,190 --> 00:25:18,880 so uh but i don't think it looks like us 674 00:25:22,789 --> 00:25:21,200 i i personally don't think it uh that 675 00:25:24,710 --> 00:25:22,799 this life these life forms would look 676 00:25:27,990 --> 00:25:24,720 like us but
