1 00:00:09,509 --> 00:00:08,150 good morning this is mission control 2 00:00:11,749 --> 00:00:09,519 houston welcome and thank you for 3 00:00:15,110 --> 00:00:11,759 joining us for today's edition of space 4 00:00:16,630 --> 00:00:15,120 station live this tuesday april 16th 5 00:00:18,390 --> 00:00:16,640 aboard the international space station 6 00:00:20,790 --> 00:00:18,400 is commander of the complex canadian 7 00:00:22,950 --> 00:00:20,800 space agency astronaut chris hadfield 8 00:00:26,070 --> 00:00:22,960 flight engineers russian cosmonaut roman 9 00:00:28,470 --> 00:00:26,080 romanenko nasa astronauts tom marshburn 10 00:00:31,589 --> 00:00:28,480 and chris cassidy and cosmonauts pavel 11 00:00:33,350 --> 00:00:31,599 vinogradov and alexander misurkin 12 00:00:35,990 --> 00:00:33,360 commander hadfield and flight engineer 13 00:00:38,069 --> 00:00:36,000 marshburn both spent some time with 14 00:00:39,750 --> 00:00:38,079 another round after yesterday's take of 15 00:00:42,229 --> 00:00:39,760 data collecting and recording that 16 00:00:44,869 --> 00:00:42,239 involves a water and urine sample 17 00:00:46,869 --> 00:00:44,879 collecting nph testing as well as at 18 00:00:48,950 --> 00:00:46,879 logging dietary consumption for two 19 00:00:51,110 --> 00:00:48,960 separate human body studies 20 00:00:52,150 --> 00:00:51,120 these studies are known as pro k and 21 00:00:54,630 --> 00:00:52,160 energy 22 00:00:57,029 --> 00:00:54,640 croquet seeks a dietary counter measure 23 00:00:59,029 --> 00:00:57,039 for bone loss while energy evaluates 24 00:01:00,790 --> 00:00:59,039 energy balance of a long duration space 25 00:01:02,869 --> 00:01:00,800 flight crew member 26 00:01:05,109 --> 00:01:02,879 hadfield and flight engineer chris 27 00:01:06,550 --> 00:01:05,119 cassidy worked together to perform 28 00:01:08,950 --> 00:01:06,560 regular maintenance to the environmental 29 00:01:10,789 --> 00:01:08,960 life support system by removing and 30 00:01:12,630 --> 00:01:10,799 replacing a recycle tank 31 00:01:14,789 --> 00:01:12,640 hadfield and cassidy also later today 32 00:01:17,109 --> 00:01:14,799 will conduct their individual periodic 33 00:01:19,670 --> 00:01:17,119 fitness evaluations flight engineer 34 00:01:21,270 --> 00:01:19,680 marshburn has spent much of his morning 35 00:01:23,190 --> 00:01:21,280 and will continue working throughout the 36 00:01:25,030 --> 00:01:23,200 day with that three bowling ball 37 00:01:27,590 --> 00:01:25,040 free-flying satellites 38 00:01:29,830 --> 00:01:27,600 known as spheres as part of ongoing 39 00:01:31,670 --> 00:01:29,840 research and microgravity his spheres 40 00:01:33,749 --> 00:01:31,680 are used to test techniques that could 41 00:01:36,630 --> 00:01:33,759 lead to advancements and automated 42 00:01:39,670 --> 00:01:36,640 dockings satellite servicing spacecraft 43 00:01:41,910 --> 00:01:39,680 assembly and emergency repairs 44 00:01:44,069 --> 00:01:41,920 light engineer chris cassidy had set up 45 00:01:46,630 --> 00:01:44,079 the combustion integrated rack in the 46 00:01:48,230 --> 00:01:46,640 microgravity science glove box for 47 00:01:50,069 --> 00:01:48,240 science operations 48 00:01:52,149 --> 00:01:50,079 cassidy then worked with his hands 49 00:01:54,950 --> 00:01:52,159 inside the microgravity science glove 50 00:01:56,630 --> 00:01:54,960 box working with the onboard research 51 00:01:58,870 --> 00:01:56,640 known as bass 52 00:02:00,550 --> 00:01:58,880 burning and suppression of solids that 53 00:02:03,590 --> 00:02:00,560 studies the characteristics of a wide 54 00:02:05,190 --> 00:02:03,600 variety of fuel samples and microgravity 55 00:02:07,030 --> 00:02:05,200 on the russian side of the house 56 00:02:08,949 --> 00:02:07,040 vinogradov and romanenko continue their 57 00:02:11,110 --> 00:02:08,959 preparations today for their spacewalk 58 00:02:13,350 --> 00:02:11,120 on friday outside the piers docking 59 00:02:15,510 --> 00:02:13,360 compartment airlock to install and 60 00:02:18,070 --> 00:02:15,520 retrieve several experiments and to 61 00:02:19,910 --> 00:02:18,080 replace a fully retro reflector on the 62 00:02:22,070 --> 00:02:19,920 aft end of zvezda 63 00:02:23,910 --> 00:02:22,080 that is part of a suite of navigational 64 00:02:27,190 --> 00:02:23,920 aids to be used by the european space 65 00:02:29,430 --> 00:02:27,200 agency's albert einstein the automated 66 00:02:31,990 --> 00:02:29,440 transfer vehicle 4 for its automated 67 00:02:34,550 --> 00:02:32,000 docking to the station later in june 68 00:02:36,949 --> 00:02:34,560 when groudov and romanenko donned their 69 00:02:39,030 --> 00:02:36,959 russian orlan spacesuits this morning to 70 00:02:41,190 --> 00:02:39,040 conduct translation exercises in the 71 00:02:42,550 --> 00:02:41,200 piers docking compartment airlock 72 00:02:44,790 --> 00:02:42,560 testing the crew's ability to move 73 00:02:45,910 --> 00:02:44,800 around in preparation for friday's space 74 00:02:48,229 --> 00:02:45,920 walk 75 00:02:50,790 --> 00:02:48,239 tomorrow they will don the suits again
