1 00:00:01,450 --> 00:00:04,070 Good morning and welcome to mission control Houston 2 00:00:04,070 --> 00:00:06,680 and the International Space Station update hour. 3 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:09,390 We are here with International Space Station flight control 4 00:00:09,390 --> 00:00:11,980 team inside the space station flight control room 5 00:00:11,980 --> 00:00:14,590 where Flight Director Royce Renfrew is leading the team 6 00:00:14,590 --> 00:00:18,760 today with Jeremy Hansen serving as Capcom. 7 00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,310 For one day only this week Expedition 35 crew members are 8 00:00:23,310 --> 00:00:24,960 back on a regular schedule. 9 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,280 Commander Chris Hadfield of the Canadian space agency, 10 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,350 NASA flight engineer Tom Marshburn, 11 00:00:30,350 --> 00:00:33,620 and Russian flight engineer Roman Romanenko all got there 12 00:00:33,620 --> 00:00:36,860 wakeup call at the regular one a.m. central time today 13 00:00:36,860 --> 00:00:39,260 and are now more than halfway through their day. 14 00:00:39,260 --> 00:00:41,880 They are currently orbiting 256 miles 15 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:45,490 above Singapore heading northeast 16 00:00:45,490 --> 00:00:49,200 over Indonesia toward the coast of China. 17 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,670 Marshburn, Hadfield and Romanenko launched 18 00:00:51,670 --> 00:00:53,590 to the space station on December nineteenth 19 00:00:53,590 --> 00:00:57,140 on their Soyuz TMA-07M, which they then docked 20 00:00:57,140 --> 00:01:01,050 to the station's Rassvet module on December 21. 21 00:01:01,050 --> 00:01:03,580 That puts them on their 99th day in space 22 00:01:03,580 --> 00:01:06,350 and their 96th day on the space station. 23 00:01:06,350 --> 00:01:09,640 The three have been alone the station since March fifteenth 24 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,930 when their previous three crewmates, Kevin Ford, 25 00:01:12,930 --> 00:01:15,720 Evgeny Tarelkin and Oleg Novitskiy wrapped 26 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:19,910 up their 143 day stay in space and returned home. 27 00:01:19,910 --> 00:01:22,920 They are now looking forward being join tomorrow 28 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:26,030 by three new crew members Chris Cassidy 29 00:01:26,030 --> 00:01:29,770 and Russian cosmonauts Pavel Vinogradov 30 00:01:29,770 --> 00:01:32,970 and Alexander Misurkin. 31 00:01:32,970 --> 00:01:38,010 Their Soyuz TMA-08M is scheduled to not only launch 32 00:01:38,010 --> 00:01:40,850 at 3:43 p.m. central time tomorrow 33 00:01:40,850 --> 00:01:42,140 from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, 34 00:01:42,140 --> 00:01:44,560 but it will also dock the same day 35 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,150 to the station's Poisk module 36 00:01:46,150 --> 00:01:50,130 at 9:32 p.m. It will be the first single day journey 37 00:01:50,130 --> 00:01:52,530 to the space station for crewed vehicle. 38 00:01:52,530 --> 00:01:54,700 The Russians have successfully tested the plan 39 00:01:54,700 --> 00:01:58,850 with Progress cargo vehicles in the past. 40 00:01:58,850 --> 00:02:00,470 NASA TV coverage of the they will begin 41 00:02:00,470 --> 00:02:03,830 at 2:30 p.m. central tomorrow and you can see how the 42 00:02:03,830 --> 00:02:06,600 at other events line up here. 43 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,190 Coverage of the docking will begin at 8:30 p.m. central time 44 00:02:10,190 --> 00:02:14,460 and final section of our coverage 45 00:02:14,460 --> 00:02:17,090 of for the Hatch opening which scheduled 46 00:02:17,090 --> 00:02:22,590 for 11:10 p.m. will begin at 10:30 p.m. central time. 47 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:28,360 After seeing off the SpaceX Dragon cargo ship yesterday, 48 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,690 which spashed down safely in the Pacific Ocean 49 00:02:30,690 --> 00:02:32,970 at 11:36 p.m. central time. 50 00:02:32,970 --> 00:02:37,310 You can see a photo of that vehicle in the ocean here. 51 00:02:37,310 --> 00:02:40,600 The crew is now back to primarily science experiments 52 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,980 and preparations for their new crew members today. 53 00:02:43,980 --> 00:02:46,220 Chris Hadfield spent some time this morning working 54 00:02:46,220 --> 00:02:49,410 with the new ISERVE experiment that stands 55 00:02:49,410 --> 00:02:53,490 for ISS server environmental research and is 56 00:02:53,490 --> 00:02:55,380 and visualization system. 57 00:02:55,380 --> 00:02:58,220 That is an automated system designed to acquire images 58 00:02:58,220 --> 00:03:01,240 of the Earth's surface, from space station, both as a way 59 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,080 to gain experience and expertise in automated photography 60 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,740 from the station and also to provide useful images 61 00:03:06,740 --> 00:03:09,390 for disaster monitoring and assessment as well 62 00:03:09,390 --> 00:03:10,950 as environmental decision making. 63 00:03:10,950 --> 00:03:12,490 We are going to be hearing more 64 00:03:12,490 --> 00:03:16,890 about that experiment a little later in the hour. 65 00:03:16,890 --> 00:03:19,280 Tom Marshburn is spending most of his time today 66 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,010 on the energy experiment, which is aimed 67 00:03:21,010 --> 00:03:23,040 at measuring how much food if needed 68 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,050 for astronauts during long-term space missions. 69 00:03:26,050 --> 00:03:29,860 To do so, the science team will measure every component 70 00:03:29,860 --> 00:03:34,820 or variable of the astronauts energy expenditures reflecting 71 00:03:34,820 --> 00:03:36,870 his or her energy needs. 72 00:03:36,870 --> 00:03:40,160 So Marshburn today, followed a prescribed, yesterday rather, 73 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,450 followed a prescribed menu and he will continue 74 00:03:43,450 --> 00:03:45,890 that plan for breakfast today. 75 00:03:45,890 --> 00:03:48,700 Then he'll be logging very carefully all this other meals 76 00:03:48,700 --> 00:03:51,940 today and providing urine samples as well as spending 77 00:03:51,940 --> 00:03:56,860 for 45 to 80 minutes sessions, monitoring his oxygen intake 78 00:03:56,860 --> 00:04:00,470 through a mask while relaxing by either by listening 79 00:04:00,470 --> 00:04:03,090 to music or watching a movie. 80 00:04:03,090 --> 00:04:06,220 In addition, Marshburn and Hadfield both performed sessions 81 00:04:06,220 --> 00:04:09,760 of the reaction self test experiment again today. 82 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,370 In all they have aimed to perform 215 runs 83 00:04:12,370 --> 00:04:16,050 with that experiment by the end their stay at the space station. 84 00:04:16,050 --> 00:04:19,950 Reaction self test is a five-minute reaction time task 85 00:04:19,950 --> 00:04:22,680 that allows crew members to monitor the daily effects 86 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,160 of fatigue on their performance, particularly at times like these 87 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,220 when their sleep schedule is that disrupted 88 00:04:28,220 --> 00:04:30,110 through sleep shifting. 89 00:04:31,870 --> 00:04:34,700 Hadfield and Marshburn have each been taking part 90 00:04:34,700 --> 00:04:37,290 in the test right before their sleep period begins, 91 00:04:37,290 --> 00:04:38,450 all week long. 92 00:04:38,450 --> 00:04:41,970 However today, Marshburn also performed the tests 93 00:04:41,970 --> 00:04:45,100 as soon as he woken up. 94 00:04:46,310 --> 00:04:47,590 Tomorrow, the crew will be sleeping 95 00:04:47,590 --> 00:04:50,300 in the midst 2:30 a.m. central time in preparation 96 00:04:50,300 --> 00:04:53,230 for the arrival of their crewmates, later in the day. 97 00:04:53,230 --> 00:04:55,530 Because it will be such a long day, 98 00:04:55,530 --> 00:05:01,600 they're also scheduled take one four hour long nap at 10 a.m. 99 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:05,480 and then the backup at 2 p.m. for the launch and docking 100 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,960 after which they will go to sleep begin until 3:30 a.m. 101 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:11,860 So a long day for the crew tomorrow 102 00:05:11,860 --> 00:05:13,740 and they've got a busy day ahead of them today.
