00:01:47,510 --> 00:01:45,280 one of the things we had to do was 44 00:01:51,190 --> 00:01:47,520 actually make space for them we had to 45 00:01:52,389 --> 00:01:51,200 move our our soyuz which was docked 46 00:01:55,030 --> 00:01:52,399 to the 47 00:01:56,789 --> 00:01:55,040 mrm port we moved to a different port so 48 00:01:58,230 --> 00:01:56,799 that the new crew could get there so 49 00:02:00,709 --> 00:01:58,240 that was the first modification we had 50 00:02:02,709 --> 00:02:00,719 to make and then also we had to adjust 51 00:02:03,830 --> 00:02:02,719 for emergency procedure 52 00:02:06,310 --> 00:02:03,840 all our 53 00:02:07,830 --> 00:02:06,320 procedures are trained and worked out 54 00:02:10,550 --> 00:02:07,840 for acres six 55 00:02:12,470 --> 00:02:10,560 now we are nine and so we had to come up 56 00:02:13,430 --> 00:02:12,480 with a way to response in case something 57 00:02:15,670 --> 00:02:13,440 happens 58 00:02:17,910 --> 00:02:15,680 and the last last modification but 59 00:02:20,630 --> 00:02:17,920 probably the most important for everyday 60 00:02:22,390 --> 00:02:20,640 life was find a space for for the crew 61 00:02:24,630 --> 00:02:22,400 to sleep so 62 00:02:26,390 --> 00:02:24,640 in the end we decided that the old crew 63 00:02:29,270 --> 00:02:26,400 uh as seniority and would stay in the 64 00:02:30,790 --> 00:02:29,280 crew quarters that we had before and the 65 00:02:33,750 --> 00:02:30,800 new crew was uh 66 00:02:35,589 --> 00:02:33,760 kind enough to uh just uh pick one of 67 00:02:36,390 --> 00:02:35,599 the modules they're

space 77 00:03:01,350 --> 00:02:59,840 well 78 00:03:03,670 --> 00:03:01,360 this is really 79 00:03:10,710 --> 00:03:03,680 a really interesting adventure 80 00:03:15,030 --> 00:03:11,990 and 81 00:03:19,830 --> 00:03:15,040 i'm honestly looking forward to this my 82 00:03:21,750 --> 00:03:19,840 first in a live space work we will 83 00:03:25,830 --> 00:03:21,760 perform 84 00:03:29,190 --> 00:03:25,840 a usual eva with some special tasks to 85 00:03:31,270 --> 00:03:29,200 make photos and video with olympic torch 86 00:03:33,110 --> 00:03:31,280 and this is 87 00:03:36,070 --> 00:03:33,120 some part of official 88 00:03:38,309 --> 00:03:36,080 olympic torch relay that is 89 00:03:40,149 --> 00:03:38,319 now in our country 90 00:03:43,350 --> 00:03:40,159 um 91 00:03:51,990 --> 00:03:43,360 that's all maybe alec will add something 92 00:03:57,270 --> 00:03:55,350 okay no problem um so um if you were to 93 00:03:58,710 --> 00:03:57,280 be able to have a crew of nine up there 94 00:03:59,990 --> 00:03:58,720 regularly can you talk a little bit 95 00:04:02,149 --> 00:04:00,000 about 96 00:04:04,869 --> 00:04:02,159 how much more science could be done and 97 00:04:09,190 --> 00:04:04,879 also what facilities would need to be 98 00:04:12,070 --> 00:04:10,229 i think 99 00:04:13,110 --> 00:04:12,080 absolutely moving to nine people is 100 00:04:14,390 --> 00:04:13,120 doable 101 00:04:15,990 --> 00:04:14,400 as far as the science and it would be 102 00:04:18,229 --> 00:04:16,000 fantastic you know for a long time we 103 00:04:20,550 --> 00:04:18,239 had three crew members here and when we 104 00:04:21,990 --> 00:04:20,560 moved to six that was a big jump 105 00:04:23,590 --> 00:04:22,000 one of the things really to be concerned 106 00:04:26,150 --> 00:04:23,600 about though is 107 00:04:28,230 --> 00:04:26,160 our environmental control system and 108 00:04:29,749 --> 00:04:28,240 co2 production of course will be 109 00:04:32,230 --> 00:04:29,759 increased and then our systems have to 110 00:04:34,710 --> 00:04:32,240 keep up with that and also the 111 00:04:36,629 --> 00:04:34,720 consumables and the supplies we need 112 00:04:38,629 --> 00:04:36,639 i think certainly making up the science 113 00:04:41,270 --> 00:04:38,639 for us to do 114 00:04:42,870 --> 00:04:41,280 would be very doable i think the harder 115 00:04:46,310 --> 00:04:42,880 part would be getting the systems to 116 00:04:51,830 --> 00:04:48,150 okay thank you all that will be all from 117 00:04:54,469 --> 00:04:53,270 station this is houston

00:15:10,560 is the idea of being here 306 00:15:13,829 --> 00:15:12,720 living weightless in this extraordinary 307 00:15:15,910 --> 00:15:13,839 world 308 00:15:18,069 --> 00:15:15,920 the view obviously 309 00:15:19,509 --> 00:15:18,079 what i'm able to see from the cupola is 310 00:15:21,829 --> 00:15:19,519 something that 311 00:15:23,590 --> 00:15:21,839 i think i will always bring with me but 312 00:15:26,310 --> 00:15:23,600 the physical sensation of being 313 00:15:30,550 --> 00:15:26,320 weightless is something that i think i 314 00:15:34,389 --> 00:15:32,230 hi everybody this is master nelly from 315 00:15:37,189 --> 00:15:34,399 static prevents quattro a question from 316 00:15:41,350 --> 00:15:38,870 i would like to come back to you to the 317 00:15:43,590 --> 00:15:41,360 second spacewalk 318 00:15:44,710 --> 00:15:43,600 the one that turned turned you into 319 00:15:47,829 --> 00:15:44,720 superman 320 00:15:50,230 --> 00:15:47,839 in the way that you faced the emergency 321 00:15:52,949 --> 00:15:50,240 so on the eve of your return how are you 322 00:15:56,310 --> 00:15:52,959 thinking about that experience and would 323 00:16:00,550 --> 00:15:58,470 first of all welcome aboard i will 324 00:16:03,350 --> 00:16:00,560 immediately answer to the final part of 325 00:16:08,550 --> 00:16:06,230 the desire to come back out started the 326 00:16:09,990 --> 00:16:08,560 moment we closed the hatch i would have 327 00:16:11,670 --> 00:16:10,000 wanted to take the water out of the 328 00:16:12,870 --> 00:16:11,680 helmet and go right back out to finish 329 00:16:13,990 --> 00:16:12,880 my work so 330 00:16:17,430 --> 00:16:14,000 for me 331 00:16:22,310 --> 00:16:19,749 point the only moment that is somewhat 332 00:16:24,629 --> 00:16:22,320 incomplete is the sensation that this 333 00:16:26,230 --> 00:16:24,639 feeling that i would like to be able to 334 00:16:28,710 --> 00:16:26,240 go back out and finish the work i 335 00:16:30,710 --> 00:16:28,720 started with chris 336 00:16:31,990 --> 00:16:30,720 what am i left with this experience i i 337 00:16:33,749 --> 00:16:32,000 always say this 338 00:16:36,389 --> 00:16:33,759 when you consider an experience in its 339 00:16:38,790 --> 00:16:36,399 entirety any experience 340 00:16:40,870 --> 00:16:38,800 builds memories 341 00:16:43,430 --> 00:16:40,880 memories that are always almost always 342 00:16:44,310 --> 00:16:43,440 positive so for me that experience ended 343 00:16:47,430 --> 00:16:44,320 up well 344 00:16:49,670 --> 00:16:47,440 so it was resolved without any any 345 00:16:51,670 --> 00:16:49,680 following issues so the thing that will 346 00:16:53,670 --> 00:16:51,680 stay with me is another moment from my 347 00:16:55,829 --> 00:16:53,680 career as as a 348 00:16:58,150 --> 00:16:55,839 as an experimental pilot 349 00:17:00,870 --> 00:16:58,160 as a fighter pilot um times when i've 350 00:17:02,710 --> 00:17:00,880 had to solve problems right there in the 351 00:17:04,470 --> 00:17:02,720 moment which fortunately with a little 352 00:17:06,230 --> 00:17:04,480 bit of luck and training 353 00:17:09,110 --> 00:17:06,240 and and all the training that i've had 354 00:17:09,829 --> 00:17:09,120 before throughout my life as a pilot in 355 00:17:11,429 --> 00:17:09,839 the 356 00:17:13,990 --> 00:17:11,439 air force 357 00:17:16,789 --> 00:17:14,000

much for me to do but to confirm 464 00:23:14,789 --> 00:23:12,799 to convert the location of the various 465 00:23:17,669 --> 00:23:14,799 facilities the switches 466 00:23:20,630 --> 00:23:17,679 and for example the tools to carry out 467 00:23:23,029 --> 00:23:20,640 the repair i've been checking out and 468 00:23:26,230 --> 00:23:23,039 these various devices and that's how i'm 469 00:23:28,310 --> 00:23:26,240 spending my time now but um 470 00:23:31,270 --> 00:23:28,320 it's about four years since i was last 471 00:23:35,190 --> 00:23:31,280 here it's i feel like i've i'm back to 472 00:23:37,990 --> 00:23:35,200 my old workplace and i'm very keen to 473 00:23:43,510 --> 00:23:38,000 start the experiments i think i can go 474 00:23:50,470 --> 00:23:48,390 from kyodo news and to dr wakata 475 00:23:52,789 --> 00:23:50,480 it's the first time that you go to 476 00:23:54,710 --> 00:23:52,799 you've gone to space and also it's the 477 00:23:57,510 --> 00:23:54,720 second time that you're staying at the 478 00:23:59,830 --> 00:23:57,520 iss have do you feel that something has 479 00:24:02,549 --> 00:23:59,840 changed something is different this time 480 00:24:05,750 --> 00:24:02,559 and um next year you will become the 481 00:24:13,590 --> 00:24:05,760 commander so what is your motivation 482 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,390 um 483 00:24:22,630 --> 00:24:20,310 last time i stayed here was in 2009 and 484 00:24:24,870 --> 00:24:22,640 at that time i was i mean the last phase 485 00:24:27,990 --> 00:24:24,880 of assembling kibo the experimental 486 00:24:30,870 --> 00:24:28,000 module and at the station there are 487 00:24:33,990 --> 00:24:30,880 several other new additional modules 488 00:24:35,909 --> 00:24:34,000 added especially the earth observation 489 00:24:37,990 --> 00:24:35,919 cupra and the 490 00:24:41,909 --> 00:24:38,000 module with a lot of windows has been 491 00:24:47,110 --> 00:24:41,919 installed and we can view the earth from 492 00:24:49,510 --> 00:24:47,120 the windows um and you can see the earth 493 00:24:51,269 --> 00:24:49,520 and um i think that this view was not 494 00:24:53,750 --> 00:24:51,279 something that we can see in the past 495 00:24:55,029 --> 00:24:53,760 with the other modules so this is really 496 00:24:57,190 --> 00:24:55,039 impressive 497 00:25:00,549 --> 00:24:57,200 well about jimmy comey

and i really 514 00:26:16,149 --> 00:26:13,520 feel that when i am there 515 00:26:18,269 --> 00:26:16,159 and the assembly of 516 00:26:21,750 --> 00:26:18,279 hivo was completed in 517 00:26:23,909 --> 00:26:21,760 2009 and it's been operating 518 00:26:25,990 --> 00:26:23,919 properly and there are a lot of results 519 00:26:29,029 --> 00:26:26,000 coming out from the 520 00:26:31,909 --> 00:26:29,039 japan experiment module so people from 521 00:26:35,029 --> 00:26:31,919 the world collaborate and expand 522 00:26:37,830 --> 00:26:35,039 the uh boundary of activity and japan is 523 00:26:41,110 --> 00:26:37,840 playing very important role there and i 524 00:26:43,510 --> 00:26:41,120 feel uh pride in taking part in there 525 00:26:45,510 --> 00:26:43,520 and would like to uh 526 00:26:47,510 --> 00:26:45,520 accomplish and the mission that i have 527 00:26:50,549 --> 00:26:47,520 to do 528 00:26:53,110 --> 00:26:50,559 i'm kaneko of nbs i'd like those that 529 00:26:59,269 --> 00:26:57,190 so you are now uh this time you had uh 530 00:27:01,669 --> 00:26:59,279 flew through with the six hours very 531 00:27:03,990 --> 00:27:01,679 short flight so it must have been very 532 00:27:05,909 --> 00:27:04,000 busy for you so would you give us your 533 00:27:08,789 --> 00:27:05,919 impression about uh getting on the very 534 00:27:12,230 --> 00:27:08,799 fast track ride to iss 535 00:27:13,430 --> 00:27:12,240 well uh docking with only four 536 00:27:15,909 --> 00:27:13,440 rounds 537 00:27:18,070 --> 00:27:15,919 and tuning uh mr 538 00:27:21,190 --> 00:27:18,080 tulene and also rick must miss turkey 539 00:27:23,269 --> 00:27:21,200 they did a great work so with only four 540 00:27:24,070 --> 00:27:23,279 rounds and orbit 541 00:27:29,190 --> 00:27:24,080 we 542 00:27:32,470 --> 00:27:29,200 was 543 00:27:35,430 --> 00:27:32,480 much quicker than flying to japan to 544 00:27:37,750 --> 00:27:35,440 reach to iss it was only six hours in 545 00:27:40,310 --> 00:27:37,760 very short period of time and we can go 546 00:27:43,190 --> 00:27:40,320 and come back to earth in very short 547 00:27:45,830 --> 00:27:43,200 time so russia has such a capability 548 00:27:48,630 --> 00:27:45,840 among space capability and i feel very 549 00:27:51,350 --> 00:27:48,640 uh respect for the capability and the 550 00:27:53,430 --> 00:27:51,360 time was very short so our 551 00:27:55,350 --> 00:27:53,440 adjustment to space 552 00:28:14,950 --> 00:27:55,360 is actually going 553 00:28:20,310 --> 00:28:17,510 specifically about the mission about um 554 00:28:22,470 --> 00:28:20,320 the release of the small satellite um 555 00:28:25,430 --> 00:28:22,480 and um i do understand that you'll be 556 00:28:27,190 --> 00:28:25,440 releasing this small satellite 557 00:28:29,669 --> 00:28:27,200 also amongst the various satellites 558 00:28:31,269 --> 00:28:29,679 you'll be releasing do you have any one 559 00:28:40,789 --> 00:28:31,279 that you think will be especially 560 00:28:50,230 --> 00:28:42,149 um 561 00:28:52,310 --> 00:28:50,240 researchers have worked hard to develop 562 00:28:55,029 --> 00:28:52,320 and produce the slides i want to work 563 00:28:57,590 --> 00:28:55,039 hard to release all of them now about um 564 00:28:58,389 --> 00:28:57,600 the release of these small satellites um 565 00:29:01,430 --> 00:28:58,399 this 566 00:29:03,110 --> 00:29:01,440 is um because we have kibo and i think 567 00:29:06,470 --> 00:29:03,120 um that um this is the mission which 568 00:29:09,750 --> 00:29:06,480 will tap on the capability of kibble um 569 00:29:11,430 --> 00:29:09,760 there's the airlock um 570 00:29:12,310 --> 00:29:11,440 the humans 571 00:29:16,950 --> 00:29:12,320 um 572 00:29:19,510 --> 00:29:16,960 but russia and the united states you 573 00:29:22,070 --> 00:29:19,520 have the airlock for people to 574 00:29:24,149 --> 00:29:22,080 exit and enter but um 575 00:29:27,590 --> 00:29:24,159 it is only the gem which can release 576 00:29:30,789 --> 00:29:27,600 these satellites and devices and um 577 00:29:33,190 --> 00:29:30,799 we will be releasing from kibo and um i 578 00:29:35,990 --> 00:29:33,200 think that this will be a mission which 579 00:29:44,230 --> 00:29:36,000 will be leveraging on the capability of 580 00:29:49,990 --> 00:29:46,230 again a question regarding you are 581 00:29:52,870 --> 00:29:50,000 becoming a commander as commander 582 00:29:56,230 --> 00:29:52,880 we want to exert leadership in creating 583 00:29:58,789 --> 00:29:56,240 harmony um can you explain to us how you
