1 00:00:15,910 --> 00:00:13,030 good morning and welcome to mission 2 00:00:17,910 --> 00:00:15,920 control houston and space station live 3 00:00:20,150 --> 00:00:17,920 the three members of the expedition 37 4 00:00:22,390 --> 00:00:20,160 crew currently on orbit are enjoying a 5 00:00:24,870 --> 00:00:22,400 few hours of downtime before the crew 6 00:00:25,830 --> 00:00:24,880 expands later today with the arrival of 7 00:00:27,269 --> 00:00:25,840 three new 8 00:00:29,669 --> 00:00:27,279 crew members still on the ground in 9 00:00:31,109 --> 00:00:29,679 baikonur 10 00:00:33,030 --> 00:00:31,119 watching over the systems from here on 11 00:00:35,270 --> 00:00:33,040 the ground we have a space station 12 00:00:36,790 --> 00:00:35,280 flight control room we have the uh space 13 00:00:38,790 --> 00:00:36,800 station flight control team here in the 14 00:00:41,430 --> 00:00:38,800 space station flight control room 15 00:00:49,830 --> 00:00:41,440 led today by flight director tony soccer 16 00:00:53,910 --> 00:00:52,069 the crew members are already at the 17 00:00:55,189 --> 00:00:53,920 space station or the crew members who 18 00:00:57,590 --> 00:00:55,199 are already at the space station begin 19 00:01:00,069 --> 00:00:57,600 their day a bit later than normal 20 00:01:02,950 --> 00:01:00,079 at 2 30 a.m to give them some extra rest 21 00:01:06,630 --> 00:01:02,960 before an exceptionally long day 22 00:01:08,230 --> 00:01:06,640 currently orbiting 259 miles above the 23 00:01:11,830 --> 00:01:08,240 pacific coast 24 00:01:13,510 --> 00:01:11,840 over washington and oregon 25 00:01:15,670 --> 00:01:13,520 they are russian commander fyodor 26 00:01:17,590 --> 00:01:15,680 yurchikhin u.s flight engineer karen 27 00:01:20,870 --> 00:01:17,600 nyberg and european space agency flight 28 00:01:25,749 --> 00:01:22,789 they arrived at the station on may 28th 29 00:01:27,190 --> 00:01:25,759 and have now spent 119 days in space 30 00:01:28,630 --> 00:01:27,200 they've been alone at the station since 31 00:01:31,109 --> 00:01:28,640 the other half of what was then the 32 00:01:32,789 --> 00:01:31,119 expedition 36 crew left on september 33 00:01:34,550 --> 00:01:32,799 10th but of course that's going to 34 00:01:37,429 --> 00:01:34,560 change later today with the launch of 35 00:01:39,270 --> 00:01:37,439 the soyuz tma-10m 36 00:01:44,710 --> 00:01:39,280 which will deliver flight engineers mike 37 00:01:46,230 --> 00:01:44,720 hopkins oleg kotov and sergey ryazanskiy 38 00:01:48,310 --> 00:01:46,240 that flight scheduled to lift off from 39 00:01:51,190 --> 00:01:48,320 the baikonur cosmodrome in kazakhstan at 40 00:01:56,630 --> 00:01:51,200 3 58 pm central time and arrive at the 41 00:02:00,149 --> 00:01:58,149 the crew invited nora has already begun 42 00:02:01,910 --> 00:02:00,159 their day and have departed their crew 43 00:02:05,030 --> 00:02:01,920 quarters later this hour they'll be 44 00:02:06,709 --> 00:02:05,040 undergoing their final medical checkups 45 00:02:08,469 --> 00:02:06,719 and meanwhile their vehicle is also 46 00:02:10,869 --> 00:02:08,479 being prepared for launch 47 00:02:13,270 --> 00:02:10,879 batteries are going to be installed in 48 00:02:15,990 --> 00:02:13,280 the boosters in the next few minutes 49 00:02:22,070 --> 00:02:16,000 and the fueling of the rocket 50 00:02:26,070 --> 00:02:24,470 while the crew although the crew is in 51 00:02:27,990 --> 00:02:26,080 although the crew in space is currently 52 00:02:29,910 --> 00:02:28,000 resting they've already done half a day 53 00:02:32,150 --> 00:02:29,920 of work chalked full with maintenance 54 00:02:34,390 --> 00:02:32,160 and science experiments 55 00:02:36,550 --> 00:02:34,400 karen nyberg has completed two runs of 56 00:02:38,229 --> 00:02:36,560 the in space iii experiment and we'll 57 00:02:39,750 --> 00:02:38,239 squeeze in one more before docking 58 00:02:41,750 --> 00:02:39,760 tonight 59 00:02:43,910 --> 00:02:41,760 that experiment examines colloidal 60 00:02:46,150 --> 00:02:43,920 fluids classified as smart materials 61 00:02:49,430 --> 00:02:46,160 which transition to a solid-like state 62 00:02:51,030 --> 00:02:49,440 in the presence of a magnetic field 63 00:02:53,430 --> 00:02:51,040 the hope is that new manufacturing 64 00:02:55,430 --> 00:02:53,440 models based on the idea of having these 65 00:02:56,869 --> 00:02:55,440 nanoparticles act as self-assembling 66 00:02:58,470 --> 00:02:56,879 building blocks 67 00:03:00,790 --> 00:02:58,480 could be used to improve or develop 68 00:03:03,430 --> 00:03:00,800 active mechanical systems such as new 69 00:03:07,670 --> 00:03:03,440 brake systems and air airplane landing 70 00:03:12,790 --> 00:03:09,830 nyberg also spent some time on the ice 71 00:03:14,550 --> 00:03:12,800 crystal 2 experiment which looks at the 72 00:03:17,110 --> 00:03:14,560 growth rates and stability of ice 73 00:03:19,030 --> 00:03:17,120 crystals in super cooled water 74 00:03:20,869 --> 00:03:19,040 the results of the experiment could open 75 00:03:23,509 --> 00:03:20,879 up a new research field related to the 76 00:03:26,229 --> 00:03:23,519 fundamentals of ice crystal growth 77 00:03:31,589 --> 00:03:26,239 mechanisms controlled by biological 78 00:03:35,910 --> 00:03:33,670 nyberg and luca parmitano both took a 79 00:03:37,670 --> 00:03:35,920 few minutes when they woke up to take 80 00:03:39,030 --> 00:03:37,680 part in the reaction self-test 81 00:03:41,190 --> 00:03:39,040 experiment 82 00:03:43,430 --> 00:03:41,200 that's aimed at trying out a way for 83 00:03:45,190 --> 00:03:43,440 astronauts to objectively assess whether 84 00:03:47,910 --> 00:03:45,200 fatigue might affect their performance 85 00:03:49,990 --> 00:03:47,920 in space for instance on long days such 86 00:03:53,910 --> 00:03:50,000 as today when they'll be up very late 87 00:03:57,670 --> 00:03:55,589 on his own parmitano worked at the 88 00:03:59,670 --> 00:03:57,680 materials science laboratory today 89 00:04:01,830 --> 00:03:59,680 changing out experiments being run from 90 00:04:04,070 --> 00:04:01,840 the ground 91 00:04:06,789 --> 00:04:04,080 the materials science laboratory can be 92 00:04:09,270 --> 00:04:06,799 used for basic materials research on 93 00:04:11,910 --> 00:04:09,280 metals alloys polymers 94 00:04:14,229 --> 00:04:11,920 semiconductors ceramics crystals and 95 00:04:15,910 --> 00:04:14,239 glasses 96 00:04:18,390 --> 00:04:15,920 it can help scientists discover new 97 00:04:23,749 --> 00:04:18,400 applications for existing materials or 98 00:04:26,950 --> 00:04:25,030 and on the russian side of the station 99 00:04:29,030 --> 00:04:26,960 commander fyodor yurchikhin 100 00:04:31,270 --> 00:04:29,040 was preparing crew quarters for his soon 101 00:04:32,870 --> 00:04:31,280 to arrive crewmates and working with the 102 00:04:34,629 --> 00:04:32,880 cascade experiment 103 00:04:36,230 --> 00:04:34,639 which looks at cell cultivation and 104 00:04:37,629 --> 00:04:36,240 microgravity 105 00:04:40,390 --> 00:04:37,639 and the 106 00:04:42,790 --> 00:04:40,400 obstacle experiment which is a small 107 00:04:46,150 --> 00:04:42,800 satellite control technology development
