00:01:26,390 --> 00:01:23,759
uh the first visiting vehicle from

35
00:01:28,310 --> 00:01:26,400
orbital sciences the cygnus craft

36
00:01:30,789 --> 00:01:28,320
was loaded with trash and then released

37
00:01:33,670 --> 00:01:30,799
from the earth-facing port of the

38
00:01:35,590 --> 00:01:33,680
harmony module earlier this morning with

39
00:01:37,990 --> 00:01:35,600
that canada robotic arm being controlled

40
00:01:38,830 --> 00:01:38,000

nyberg the craft was unbirthed from

43
00:01:46,310 --> 00:01:44,399
harmony at about 505 a.m central time

44
00:01:48,630 --> 00:01:46,320
and then released from the arm a little

45
00:01:50,069 --> 00:01:48,640
over an hour and a half later at 6 31

46
00:01:51,630 --> 00:01:50,079
a.m central time

47
00:01:54,630 --> 00:01:51,640
while the station was flying just about

48
00:01:58,550 --> 00:01:54,640
262 miles over the southern atlantic

49
00:02:03,510 --> 00:02:01,350
shortly after that release the thrusters

50
00:02:05,990 --> 00:02:03,520
on board the cygnus fire to enable the

51
00:02:08,070 --> 00:02:06,000
craft to depart the vicinity of the

52
00:02:10,070 --> 00:02:08,080
international space station where it

53
00:02:11,510 --> 00:02:10,080
will then reach a safe distance and then

54
00:02:13,030 --> 00:02:11,520
be commanded by orbital flight

55
00:02:16,390 --> 00:02:13,040
controllers do a

56
00:02:17,830 --> 00:02:16,400
deorbit engine firing tomorrow at around

57
00:02:20,550 --> 00:02:17,840
12 41

58
00:02:22,390 --> 00:02:20,560
pm central time this will then send the

59
00:02:25,430 --> 00:02:22,400
craft through its destructive re-entry

60
00:02:27,030 --> 00:02:25,440
through the earth's atmosphere

61
00:02:29,589 --> 00:02:27,040
the craft which

62
00:02:31,750 --> 00:02:29,599
docked back on september 29th delivered

63
00:02:34,790 --> 00:02:31,760
about 1300 pounds of supplies to the

64
00:02:36,869 --> 00:02:34,800
international space station crew

65
00:02:38,790 --> 00:02:36,879
so aside from that cygnus activity quite

66
00:02:40,229 --> 00:02:38,800
a bit of experiment work taking place on

67
00:02:42,470 --> 00:02:40,239
board the international space station

68
00:02:44,630 --> 00:02:42,480
today starting off with nasa astronaut

69
00:02:46,710 --> 00:02:44,640
mike hopkins who earlier this morning

70
00:02:49,190 --> 00:02:46,720
was assisting in all those cygnus

71
00:02:52,390 --> 00:02:49,200
operations checking out the vestibule

72
00:02:53,430 --> 00:02:52,400
pressure between the craft and node 2 or

73
00:02:56,790 --> 00:02:53,440
harmony

74
00:02:59,350 --> 00:02:56,800
as that was installed and activated

75
00:03:01,750 --> 00:02:59,360
earlier on last night

76
00:03:03,750 --> 00:03:01,760
aside from that mike hopkins gathering

77
00:03:06,070 --> 00:03:03,760
up some of the tools for the station's

78
00:03:08,149 --> 00:03:06,080
emu's or the extra vehicular mobility

79
00:03:09,350 --> 00:03:08,159
units used by uh

80
00:03:11,509 --> 00:03:09,360
us and

81
00:03:14,949 --> 00:03:11,519
international partner astronauts uh out

82
00:03:16,550 --> 00:03:14,959
of uh us-based uh spacewalks

83
00:03:19,030 --> 00:03:16,560
and also working today with the

84
00:03:20,869 --> 00:03:19,040
capillary flow experiment you can see a

85
00:03:23,190 --> 00:03:20,879
live view of that here

86
00:03:25,430 --> 00:03:23,200

87
00:03:26,949 --> 00:03:25,440
experiment quite a few

88
00:03:29,110 --> 00:03:26,959
iterations of this on board the

89
00:03:31,190 --> 00:03:29,120
international space station ongoing

90
00:03:32,869 --> 00:03:31,200
investigation into a various fluid

91
00:03:34,309 --> 00:03:32,879

92
00:03:36,390 --> 00:03:34,319
microgravity

93
00:03:39,830 --> 00:03:36,400
so we will be able to check in on that

94
00:03:41,910 --> 00:03:39,840
progress throughout the hour today

uh the one that they'll be working on

125
00:04:54,150 --> 00:04:51,759
this week uh studying nanoscale

126
00:04:58,150 --> 00:04:54,160
particles dispersed in liquid

127
00:04:59,830 --> 00:04:58,160
these uh fairly complex particles

128
00:05:01,990 --> 00:04:59,840
commonly found in a lot of commercial

129
00:05:04,150 --> 00:05:02,000
commodities down here on earth

130
00:05:05,909 --> 00:05:04,160
