1 00:00:06,430 --> 00:00:16,870 [Music] 2 00:00:21,510 --> 00:00:19,029 good morning and good afternoon one 3 00:00:23,830 --> 00:00:21,520 final time from mission control houston 4 00:00:26,070 --> 00:00:23,840 and welcome to our live coverage of the 5 00:00:27,830 --> 00:00:26,080 hatch opening of the soyuz ms-16 6 00:00:29,669 --> 00:00:27,840 spacecraft currently docked to the 7 00:00:31,429 --> 00:00:29,679 international space station as we get 8 00:00:33,590 --> 00:00:31,439 ready to welcome three new crew members 9 00:00:35,190 --> 00:00:33,600 aboard the orbiting laboratory 10 00:00:37,030 --> 00:00:35,200 once more we're coming to you live from 11 00:00:39,110 --> 00:00:37,040 the flight control room number one 12 00:00:40,549 --> 00:00:39,120 ficker one the usual space station 13 00:00:43,190 --> 00:00:40,559 flight control room here at the johnson 14 00:00:44,709 --> 00:00:43,200 space center in houston texas 15 00:00:47,590 --> 00:00:44,719 inside the room right now still the 16 00:00:50,630 --> 00:00:47,600 orbit 2 team and they are being led 17 00:00:52,229 --> 00:00:50,640 today by flight director puja jesrani 18 00:00:54,709 --> 00:00:52,239 she's right there in the middle of your 19 00:00:56,869 --> 00:00:54,719 screen she's going by the call sign of 20 00:00:59,110 --> 00:00:56,879 unity flight she's coordinating all of 21 00:01:01,110 --> 00:00:59,120 the teams here in houston responsible 22 00:01:03,270 --> 00:01:01,120 for overseeing the systems on board the 23 00:01:05,509 --> 00:01:03,280 international space station just above 24 00:01:07,590 --> 00:01:05,519 her is nasa astronaut jessica watkins 25 00:01:09,590 --> 00:01:07,600 she's serving as the capcom for this 26 00:01:11,830 --> 00:01:09,600 shift she'll be the voice communication 27 00:01:15,910 --> 00:01:11,840 link between our teams here in houston 28 00:01:19,670 --> 00:01:17,670 and just a quick update the crew is 29 00:01:20,630 --> 00:01:19,680 stepping through all of their final leak 30 00:01:22,710 --> 00:01:20,640 checks 31 00:01:24,630 --> 00:01:22,720 following a successful docking they kick 32 00:01:27,030 --> 00:01:24,640 off essentially 33 00:01:29,590 --> 00:01:27,040 about two hours of leak checks and 34 00:01:31,270 --> 00:01:29,600 vestibule pressurization so 35 00:01:33,190 --> 00:01:31,280 they actually fill that space between 36 00:01:35,109 --> 00:01:33,200 the soyuz spacecraft and the station 37 00:01:38,149 --> 00:01:35,119 hatch which is normally exposed to the 38 00:01:39,510 --> 00:01:38,159 vacuum of space with atmosphere and once 39 00:01:41,190 --> 00:01:39,520 that gets pressurized they have to 40 00:01:43,590 --> 00:01:41,200 equalize that so you have to have equal 41 00:01:45,670 --> 00:01:43,600 pressure in that vestibule onboard the 42 00:01:47,350 --> 00:01:45,680 soyuz spacecraft and on the station 43 00:01:48,950 --> 00:01:47,360 before you can get those hatches open 44 00:01:50,950 --> 00:01:48,960 and obviously making sure there are no 45 00:01:53,030 --> 00:01:50,960 leaks in any of the seals between the 46 00:01:54,469 --> 00:01:53,040 vehicle and the spacecraft so we're 47 00:01:56,709 --> 00:01:54,479 still going through those leak checks we 48 00:01:58,630 --> 00:01:56,719 have a couple more minutes to go until 49 00:02:00,789 --> 00:01:58,640 they get some final pressure readings 50 00:02:02,069 --> 00:02:00,799 and then we'll begin that equalization 51 00:02:04,550 --> 00:02:02,079 process and then there's a couple of 52 00:02:07,030 --> 00:02:04,560 minutes on the end of that as well 53 00:02:10,070 --> 00:02:07,040 we were initially targeting a 54 00:02:13,110 --> 00:02:10,080 hatch open time of right around 55 00:02:15,270 --> 00:02:13,120 11 15 a.m central time 56 00:02:16,470 --> 00:02:15,280 we'll slide around with that 57 00:02:19,110 --> 00:02:16,480 as the 58 00:02:21,589 --> 00:02:19,120 pressure checks continue on 59 00:02:23,510 --> 00:02:21,599 the crew on board the soyuz spacecraft 60 00:02:25,670 --> 00:02:23,520 though are on the other side of this 61 00:02:28,150 --> 00:02:25,680 hatch that we're looking at right now 62 00:02:30,869 --> 00:02:28,160 they are nasa astronaut chris cassidy 63 00:02:32,790 --> 00:02:30,879 and russian cosmonauts anatoly ivanishin 64 00:02:34,869 --> 00:02:32,800 and yvonne wagner he's there on the 65 00:02:37,030 --> 00:02:34,879 right ivanishin in the center the soyuz 66 00:02:39,910 --> 00:02:37,040 commander and on the right or on the 67 00:02:41,830 --> 00:02:39,920 left nasa astronaut chris cassidy 68 00:02:43,910 --> 00:02:41,840 and in just a couple of minutes they're 69 00:02:46,390 --> 00:02:43,920 going to be joining the expedition 62 70 00:02:48,949 --> 00:02:46,400 crew on board the station with two nasa 71 00:02:51,750 --> 00:02:48,959 astronauts jess kamir and andrew morgan 72 00:02:52,949 --> 00:02:51,760 and alex grapochka they've all been on 73 00:02:55,190 --> 00:02:52,959 board 74 00:02:57,509 --> 00:02:55,200 for different times drew morgan's 75 00:02:58,390 --> 00:02:57,519 actually been on board for about 263 76 00:03:01,270 --> 00:02:58,400 days 77 00:03:02,790 --> 00:03:01,280 and then christina and oleg have been on 78 00:03:03,710 --> 00:03:02,800 board for just 79 00:03:05,670 --> 00:03:03,720 over 80 00:03:07,270 --> 00:03:05,680 197 days 81 00:03:09,270 --> 00:03:07,280 they're scheduled to remain onboard the 82 00:03:11,589 --> 00:03:09,280 station for about another week and then 83 00:03:13,750 --> 00:03:11,599 they'll be coming home and then the crew 84 00:03:15,830 --> 00:03:13,760 that just arrived today will be the only 85 00:03:18,869 --> 00:03:15,840 ones on board until we get another human 86 00:03:21,430 --> 00:03:18,879 space flight launch the next one 87 00:03:23,110 --> 00:03:21,440 on our schedule is going to be that demo 88 00:03:28,149 --> 00:03:23,120 two flights 89 00:03:32,550 --> 00:03:30,070 and that'll be bringing uh bob banking 90 00:03:34,949 --> 00:03:32,560 and doug hurley up to the station 91 00:03:36,869 --> 00:03:34,959 but for now we are standing by 92 00:03:39,910 --> 00:03:36,879 for this hatch opening you're getting a 93 00:03:42,070 --> 00:03:39,920 look inside of the poisk module and 94 00:03:43,990 --> 00:03:42,080 you're going to see alex grapochka the 95 00:03:45,430 --> 00:03:44,000 current station commander floating into 96 00:03:46,949 --> 00:03:45,440 view 97 00:03:48,229 --> 00:03:46,959 he's just there at the bottom he's been 98 00:03:50,869 --> 00:03:48,239 setting up the camera and getting the 99 00:03:52,309 --> 00:03:50,879 hatch ready on the station side 100 00:03:53,910 --> 00:03:52,319 there are two hatches that we'll see 101 00:03:55,589 --> 00:03:53,920 open first we'll see him open the 102 00:03:56,710 --> 00:03:55,599 station hatch and that'll actually 103 00:03:58,949 --> 00:03:56,720 reveal 104 00:04:01,030 --> 00:03:58,959 the very top of the soyuz spacecraft 105 00:04:03,750 --> 00:04:01,040 where we were looking at it in the 106 00:04:06,309 --> 00:04:03,760 vacuum of space just a few hours ago the 107 00:04:08,710 --> 00:04:06,319 docking probe and the other antennas 108 00:04:10,309 --> 00:04:08,720 located around it it's currently 109 00:04:11,750 --> 00:04:10,319 attached the docking probe has been 110 00:04:13,110 --> 00:04:11,760 retracted 111 00:04:14,309 --> 00:04:13,120 and then once these leak checks are 112 00:04:16,789 --> 00:04:14,319 complete we'll be able to get these 113 00:04:21,990 --> 00:04:16,799 hatches open and the crew on board 114 00:04:27,749 --> 00:04:24,390 all right step ten point nine point 115 00:04:29,990 --> 00:04:27,759 three air power one airflow regulator 116 00:04:45,990 --> 00:04:30,000 one is closed 117 00:04:53,590 --> 00:04:49,270 yes please send f5 command and 118 00:04:57,510 --> 00:04:53,600 then in one minute send s6 command f5 119

00:05:39,830 --> 00:05:37,759 today is leading the team of flight 123 00:05:42,070 --> 00:05:39,840 controllers both 124 00:05:44,230 --> 00:05:42,080 a support team here in houston and over 125 00:05:46,390 --> 00:05:44,240 in moscow 126 00:05:47,990 --> 00:05:46,400 getting data and feedback from the 127 00:05:49,670 --> 00:05:48,000 russian flight control team and feeding 128 00:05:51,749 --> 00:05:49,680 that to the 129 00:05:53,590 --> 00:05:51,759 flight controllers here in houston 130 00:05:55,510 --> 00:05:53,600 infecter one 131 00:05:57,110 --> 00:05:55,520 just hearing that the leak checks have 132 00:05:59,830 --> 00:05:57,120 been completed now they're beginning the 133 00:06:01,029 --> 00:05:59,840 pressure equalization step so you need 134 00:06:02,070 --> 00:06:01,039 to make sure that you have equal 135 00:06:04,550 --> 00:06:02,080 pressure 136 00:06:06,390 --> 00:06:04,560 on both the station 137 00:06:08,469 --> 00:06:06,400 and the soyuz half sides and then also 138 00:06:10,469 --> 00:06:08,479 in that vestibule that space in between 139 00:06:14,550 --> 00:06:10,479 and then at that once those pressures 140 00:06:16,790 --> 00:06:14,560 are equal or within a tolerable range of 141 00:06:19,110 --> 00:06:16,800 being equal they'll be able to actually 142 00:06:22,309 --> 00:06:19,120 get these hatches open so leak checks in 143 00:06:24,550 --> 00:06:22,319 the rear view equalization on board now 144 00:06:26,230 --> 00:06:24,560 and following that will be hatch opening 145 00:06:29,029 --> 00:06:26,240 okay 146 00:06:30,390 --> 00:06:29,039 there's no no no stop 147 00:06:37,749 --> 00:06:30,400 standby 148 00:06:42,870 --> 00:06:38,950 all right so 149 00:06:56,070 --> 00:06:42,880 stand by for isis h opening 150 00:06:59,270 --> 00:06:57,589 and again the first hatch we expect to 151 00:07:00,950 --> 00:06:59,280 be open will be on the station side 152 00:07:03,510 --> 00:07:00,960 there are two hatches one on the station 153 00:07:05,990 --> 00:07:03,520 one on the soyuz alex corporate there 154 00:07:08,309 --> 00:07:06,000 and the poisk module will first open up 155 00:07:09,670 --> 00:07:08,319 the station side hatch looks like he's 156 00:07:10,870 --> 00:07:09,680 getting into position to start that 157 00:07:12,230 --> 00:07:10,880 maneuver now 158 00:07:14,950 --> 00:07:12,240 and then after 159 00:07:17,430 --> 00:07:14,960 they finalized the pressurization 160 00:07:19,670 --> 00:07:17,440 equalization between the soyuz and the 161 00:07:21,110 --> 00:07:19,680 station they'll be able to open up the 162 00:07:22,469 --> 00:07:21,120 soyuz hatch 163 00:07:24,390 --> 00:07:22,479 in the time since they've docked in 164 00:07:26,390 --> 00:07:24,400 addition to doing all of these leak 165 00:07:27,909 --> 00:07:26,400 checks uh the crew able to get out of 166 00:07:29,670 --> 00:07:27,919 their circle launch and entry suits that 167 00:07:34,469 --> 00:07:29,680 they've been wearing since suiting up 168 00:07:38,390 --> 00:07:36,309 and there we see the station side hatch 169 00:07:40,469 --> 00:07:38,400 is open 170 00:07:51,070 --> 00:07:40,479 and looking at the very top of the 171

this is orbital 208 00:10:53,269 --> 00:10:41,279 flight ojs page 25-38 209 00:10:57,269 --> 00:10:54,870 that's affirmative 210 00:10:58,550 --> 00:10:57,279 second item do not deactivate the gas 211 00:11:02,550 --> 00:10:58,560 analyzer 212 00:11:03,829 --> 00:11:02,560 orbital flight or jf page 36 213 00:11:26,829 --> 00:11:03,839 stats 214 00:11:34,630 --> 00:11:32,630 36. step 4.5 is not to be executed 215 00:11:37,110 --> 00:11:34,640 and because analyzer is not to be 216 00:11:40,630 --> 00:11:37,120 activated that's correct next item you 217 00:11:42,470 --> 00:11:40,640 have to change out the cartridge in the 218 00:11:45,190 --> 00:11:42,480 sub page 35 219 00:11:46,150 --> 00:11:45,200 4.3 so you're supposed to switch pair 220 00:11:48,230 --> 00:11:46,160 one 221 00:11:50,069 --> 00:11:48,240 with past three 222 00:11:51,150 --> 00:11:50,079 page 35 223 00:11:54,949 --> 00:11:51,160 step 224 00:11:56,470 --> 00:11:54,959 4.3 and what's next 225 00:11:59,190 --> 00:11:56,480 replace 226 00:12:02,230 --> 00:11:59,200 the one with ps3 is that correct yes 227 00:12:05,910 --> 00:12:03,670 so while the crew inside the soyuz 228 00:12:08,150 --> 00:12:05,920 continues to step through these final 229 00:12:09,829 --> 00:12:08,160 equalization procedures let's take a 230 00:12:11,910 --> 00:12:09,839 couple of moments you guys have been 231 00:12:14,069 --> 00:12:11,920 sending in questions on twitter using 232 00:12:15,670 --> 00:12:14,079 that hashtag ask nasa ever since our 233 00:12:18,230 --> 00:12:15,680 launch this morning we'll try and burn 234 00:12:20,829 --> 00:12:18,240 through a couple here real quick 235 00:12:22,949 --> 00:12:20,839 uh our first one comes from 236 00:12:24,949 --> 00:12:22,959 mymyriamyvet we wanted to know what 237 00:12:27,430 --> 00:12:24,959 would be the first task upon boarding 238 00:12:28,310 --> 00:12:27,440 the international space station 239 00:12:31,030 --> 00:12:28,320 well 240 00:12:32,470 --> 00:12:31,040 first task on board will be to just 241 00:12:34,550 --> 00:12:32,480 greet their crew members and they'll 242 00:12:36,389 --> 00:12:34,560 gather in the russian service module and 243 00:12:39,350 --> 00:12:36,399 exchange a couple of words with the 244 00:12:40,310 --> 00:12:39,360 teams on the ground both in moscow and 245 00:12:41,829 --> 00:12:40,320 houston 246 00:12:43,750 --> 00:12:41,839 then actually the first scheduled task 247 00:12:45,030 --> 00:12:43,760 for all of these crew members will be a 248 00:12:45,990 --> 00:12:45,040 midday meal 249 00:12:47,910 --> 00:12:46,000 it's been 250 00:12:50,470 --> 00:12:47,920 several hours since the crew 251 00:12:53,350 --> 00:12:50,480 on the soyuz 8 prior to getting suited 252 00:12:55,990 --> 00:12:53,360 up and leaving on their trip into space 253 00:12:58,150 --> 00:12:56,000 and then for the crew already on board 254 00:12:59,430 --> 00:12:58,160 the station it's right at midday meal 255 00:13:01,110 --> 00:12:59,440 time for 256 00:13:03,269 --> 00:13:01,120 their normal sleep schedule so they'll 257 00:13:04,949 --> 00:13:03,279 all share that together and then i'll 258 00:13:08,069 --> 00:13:04,959 actually move into what's known as a 259 00:13:09,590 --> 00:13:08,079 safety briefing so it's customary that 260 00:13:12,069 --> 00:13:09,600 the international space station 261 00:13:13,910 --> 00:13:12,079 commander gives all newly arrived crews 262 00:13:16,470 --> 00:13:13,920 a safety briefing that typically lasts 263 00:13:18,870 --> 00:13:16,480 about 45 minutes where they just do a 264 00:13:22,550 --> 00:13:18,880 refresher on all the particulars of 265 00:13:24,069 --> 00:13:22,560 reacting to an emergency onboard station 266 00:13:25,509 --> 00:13:24,079 where your routes are to your soyuz 267 00:13:27,750 --> 00:13:25,519 spacecraft where all the emergency 268 00:13:31,190 --> 00:13:27,760 equipment is and just walking through it 269 00:13:34,150 --> 00:13:32,870 next question comes from sid who wanted 270 00:13:36,069 --> 00:13:34,160 to know is this going to be the last 271 00:13:37,750 --> 00:13:36,079 usage of the soyuz for space station 272 00:13:39,350 --> 00:13:37,760 travel a number of you sending in 273 00:13:41,030 --> 00:13:39,360 questions asking 274 00:13:43,590 --> 00:13:41,040 if this is the last time we'll have 275 00:13:45,590 --> 00:13:43,600 american astronauts on a soyuz or 276 00:13:47,430 --> 00:13:45,600 will we only be flying on the new 277 00:13:48,550 --> 00:13:47,440 commercial spacecraft from spacex and 278 00:13:50,310 --> 00:13:48,560 boeing 279 00:13:52,710 --> 00:13:50,320 and the answer is no this will not be 280 00:13:56,310 --> 00:13:52,720 the last usage the intention is to 281 00:13:59,269 --> 00:13:56,320 continue to fly americans on the soyuz 282 00:14:01,590 --> 00:13:59,279 and then also to fly russians on the 283 00:14:03,990 --> 00:14:01,600 commercial crew vehicles coming online 284 00:14:06,949 --> 00:14:04,000 as part of our commercial crew program 285 00:14:09,110 --> 00:14:06,959 we always want to maintain a 286 00:14:12,629 --> 00:14:09,120 u.s and a russian presence on board the 287 00:14:14,310 --> 00:14:12,639 station as those nations are the ones 288 00:14:15,350 --> 00:14:14,320 most 289 00:14:17,509 --> 00:14:15,360 the next 290 00:14:19,189 --> 00:14:17,519 most well trained and most in tune with 291 00:14:20,629 --> 00:14:19,199 the various systems on the different 292 00:14:22,550 --> 00:14:20,639 segments 293 00:14:24,470 --> 00:14:22,560 and so in order to keep that mixed crew 294 00:14:26,389 --> 00:14:24,480 we're going to have to fly mixed crews 295 00:14:28,150 --> 00:14:26,399 on these different vehicles 296 00:14:30,710 --> 00:14:28,160 so we fully intend 297 00:14:33,590 --> 00:14:30,720 to continue flying americans on soyuz 298 00:14:37,030 --> 00:14:33,600 and to eventually fly russians on the 299 00:14:39,350 --> 00:14:37,040 u.s commercial crew vehicles 300 00:14:40,710 --> 00:14:39,360 and then a lot of people uh sending in 301 00:14:43,430 --> 00:14:40,720 the uh 302 00:14:46,389 --> 00:14:43,440 very pertinent questions about any risks 303 00:14:48,550 --> 00:14:46,399 of the crew spreading covid19 to the 304 00:14:50,310 --> 00:14:48,560 international space station or what 305 00:14:53,269 --> 00:14:50,320 we've done to protect them and the 306 00:14:55,269 --> 00:14:53,279 answer is we really have a very robust 307 00:14:57,430 --> 00:14:55,279 health stabilization program is what 308 00:14:59,350 --> 00:14:57,440 it's referred to so it's essentially a 309 00:15:02,069 --> 00:14:59,360 very strict quarantine for these crew 310 00:15:04,629 --> 00:15:02,079 members in the weeks leading up to their 311 00:15:07,269 --> 00:15:04,639 international space station flights a 312 00:15:09,750 --> 00:15:07,279 couple of typical pre-launch activities 313 00:15:12,150 --> 00:15:09,760 were either scaled back or changed 314 00:15:15,670 --> 00:15:12,160 largely ceremonial in nature things like 315 00:15:17,350 --> 00:15:15,680 media briefings or visits to red square 316 00:15:19,430 --> 00:15:17,360 but their quarantine procedures didn't 317 00:15:21,590 --> 00:15:19,440 really get that much of a change 318 00:15:24,230 --> 00:15:21,600 the amount of individuals in the general 319 00:15:25,430 --> 00:15:24,240 area around the crew was scaled back we 320 00:15:27,750 --> 00:15:25,440 saw with 321 00:15:29,990 --> 00:15:27,760 all of the roll out video of the crew 322 00:15:32,550 --> 00:15:30,000 leaving the hotel there was a much 323 00:15:35,030 --> 00:15:32,560 smaller footprint of individuals down 324 00:15:37,110 --> 00:15:35,040 there in baikonur just due to all of the 325 00:15:37,910 --> 00:15:37,120 current travel restrictions 326 00:15:40,310 --> 00:15:37,920 but 327 00:15:42,150 --> 00:15:40,320 we do have this stabilization plan 328 00:15:44,949 --> 00:15:42,160 already in place that requires a 329 00:15:47,509 --> 00:15:44,959 quarantine for these crew members just 330 00:15:49,430 --> 00:15:47,519 even in normal times to prevent them 331 00:15:51,269 --> 00:15:49,440 from bringing any 332 00:15:52,949 --> 00:15:51,279 bugs viruses things like that up to the 333 00:15:54,230 --> 00:15:52,959 space station with them 334 00:15:55,189 --> 00:15:54,240 and potentially getting their other 335 00:15:56,629 --> 00:15:55,199 crewmates sick because they're 336 00:15:57,990 --> 00:15:56,639 essentially living in this closed 337 00:15:59,749 --> 00:15:58,000 environment 338 00:16:01,670 --> 00:15:59,759 and so thanks to already having a lot of 339 00:16:03,590 --> 00:16:01,680 those robust procedures in place we're 340 00:16:06,150 --> 00:16:03,600 very confident that we're able to launch 341 00:16:08,470 --> 00:16:06,160 these crew members safe and healthy and 342 00:16:11,829 --> 00:16:08,480 ready for their months days on for the 343 00:16:13,990 --> 00:16:11,839 international space station 344 00:16:15,670 --> 00:16:14,000 there are certain actions that are 345 00:16:17,910 --> 00:16:15,680 altered miscellany wanted to know how 346 00:16:19,670 --> 00:16:17,920 often they get to talk to their families 347 00:16:20,949 --> 00:16:19,680 uh pretty regularly 348 00:16:23,509 --> 00:16:20,959 and then they'll have regularly 349 00:16:25,829 --> 00:16:23,519 scheduled video conferences with friends 350 00:16:27,910 --> 00:16:25,839 and family down here on the ground 351 00:16:30,150 --> 00:16:27,920 using a lot of different communication 352 00:16:32,550 --> 00:16:30,160 tools that would be very familiar to you 353 00:16:34,870 --> 00:16:32,560 or i down here on planet earth 354 00:16:37,430 --> 00:16:34,880 essentially using 355 00:16:40,389 --> 00:16:37,440 video calling and even voice over ip 356 00:16:41,990 --> 00:16:40,399 very similar to uh what we get and it 357 00:16:44,230 --> 00:16:42,000 ends up functioning just like calling 358 00:16:45,990 --> 00:16:44,240 somebody on a cell phone 359 00:16:47,350 --> 00:16:46,000 so they're able to get that on board the 360 00:16:49,189 --> 00:16:47,360 international space station and also 361 00:16:50,949 --> 00:16:49,199 have access to email 362 00:16:52,870 --> 00:16:50,959 so they're able to regularly send and 363 00:16:55,829 --> 00:16:52,880 receive messages from family on the 364 00:16:58,389 --> 00:16:55,839 ground and they can do that every single 365 00:17:02,230 --> 00:17:00,069 our next one comes from alex you want to 366 00:17:05,110 --> 00:17:02,240 know how good is the internet on the 367 00:17:08,630 --> 00:17:05,120 international space station 368 00:17:10,390 --> 00:17:08,640 the internet is serviced like all of the 369 00:17:12,630 --> 00:17:10,400 data transfer from the station by our 370 00:17:14,710 --> 00:17:12,640 tracking and data relay satellites it's 371 00:17:15,990 --> 00:17:14,720 a constellation in orbit around the 372 00:17:18,630 --> 00:17:16,000 earth 373 00:17:20,630 --> 00:17:18,640 that they're able to use to 374 00:17:22,470 --> 00:17:20,640 send data send video 375 00:17:24,150 --> 00:17:22,480 like we're getting right now 376 00:17:25,669 --> 00:17:24,160 also send voice communications but also 377 00:17:27,429 --> 00:17:25,679 use the internet the 378 00:17:29,350 --> 00:17:27,439 internet the astronauts able to browse 379 00:17:31,270 --> 00:17:29,360 the web on board 380 00:17:33,750 --> 00:17:31,280 and the station right now 381 00:17:35,750 --> 00:17:33,760 thanks to upgrades in 2019 382 00:17:37,270 --> 00:17:35,760 supports a 600 megabit per second 383 00:17:38,950 --> 00:17:37,280 connection so 384 00:17:40,630 --> 00:17:38,960 it's getting more common to have gigabit 385 00:17:43,029 --> 00:17:40,640 connections down here on planet earth so 386 00:17:45,430 --> 00:17:43,039 not quite that fast but considering 387 00:17:47,909 --> 00:17:45,440 they're orbiting about 250 statute miles 388 00:17:49,990 --> 00:17:47,919 over planet earth it's definitely fast 389 00:17:51,669 --> 00:17:50,000 enough and that's handling all of the 390 00:17:53,350 --> 00:17:51,679 video coming down from station all of 391 00:17:55,750 --> 00:17:53,360 the science data 392 00:17:57,590 --> 00:17:55,760 all of the files being uplinked to the 393 00:17:59,750 --> 00:17:57,600 crew um so 394 00:18:02,470 --> 00:17:59,760 for now and we'll figure it out later 395 00:18:04,390 --> 00:18:02,480 600 megabits 396 00:18:05,830 --> 00:18:04,400 uh our next question comes from claire c 397 00:18:09,190 --> 00:18:05,840 wanted to know why the backup crew are 398 00:18:10,470 --> 00:18:09,200 being used that is because 399 00:18:12,630 --> 00:18:10,480 one of the crew members that was 400 00:18:13,990 --> 00:18:12,640 originally slated to fly encountered a 401 00:18:17,190 --> 00:18:14,000 medical issue in some of the final 402 00:18:18,710 --> 00:18:17,200 stages of training and since these crew 403 00:18:20,789 --> 00:18:18,720 members were getting some special 404 00:18:22,630 --> 00:18:20,799 training um as 405 00:18:24,710 --> 00:18:22,640 uh when 406 00:18:26,630 --> 00:18:24,720 andrew morgan and jessica meer leave 407 00:18:29,669 --> 00:18:26,640 along with alex korpochka 408 00:18:32,150 --> 00:18:29,679 we'll only have one usos crew member 409 00:18:34,390 --> 00:18:32,160 that's chris cassidy on us stands for 410 00:18:36,230 --> 00:18:34,400 the u.s operating segment 411 00:18:37,830 --> 00:18:36,240 it's really the 412 00:18:40,070 --> 00:18:37,840 behalf of the international space 413 00:18:41,669 --> 00:18:40,080 station that has the the u.s sponsored 414 00:18:44,150 --> 00:18:41,679 modules along with some from our 415 00:18:46,390 --> 00:18:44,160 international partners 416 00:18:47,270 --> 00:18:46,400 and for certain things like spacewalks 417 00:18:49,430 --> 00:18:47,280 which 418 00:18:51,510 --> 00:18:49,440 we have different systems different 419 00:18:53,190 --> 00:18:51,520 suits different procedures on the u.s 420 00:18:54,630 --> 00:18:53,200 side and the russian side 421 00:18:57,510 --> 00:18:54,640 so the russian crew member is getting 422 00:18:59,270 --> 00:18:57,520 some special training 423 00:19:01,990 --> 00:18:59,280 in those procedures 424 00:19:03,909 --> 00:19:02,000 in particular one of the crew members 425 00:19:06,230 --> 00:19:03,919 in each the prime and the backup crew 426 00:19:07,750 --> 00:19:06,240 getting that training and since 427 00:19:08,789 --> 00:19:07,760 these backup crews are essentially a 428 00:19:10,630 --> 00:19:08,799 pair 429 00:19:12,870 --> 00:19:10,640 when one crew member had a medical issue 430 00:19:15,110 --> 00:19:12,880 they had to swap out both and so that's 431 00:19:17,430 --> 00:19:15,120 why the backup crew was used on this 432 00:19:20,150 --> 00:19:17,440 flight but as we heard pre-launch 433 00:19:21,270 --> 00:19:20,160 anatoly venetian and ivonne wagner 434 00:19:23,190 --> 00:19:21,280 training 435 00:19:24,630 --> 00:19:23,200 just alongside with the prime crew for 436 00:19:26,710 --> 00:19:24,640 this over the last two years so they 437 00:19:30,870 --> 00:19:26,720 were very well prepared and ready to 438 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:37,990 thank you 736 439 00:19:40,630 --> 00:19:39,430 we haven't forgot about hatch opening 440 00:19:41,750 --> 00:19:40,640 again they're still 441 00:19:43,430 --> 00:19:41,760 working through this pressure 442 00:19:45,350 --> 00:19:43,440 equalization it can take a couple of 443 00:19:47,270 --> 00:19:45,360 minutes uh so we're just going to 444 00:19:49,669 --> 00:19:47,280 continue to stand by we should be seeing 445 00:19:51,590 --> 00:19:49,679 that soyuz hatch open in just a little 446 00:19:54,070 --> 00:19:51,600 bit and then we'll see chris cassidy 447 00:19:55,830 --> 00:19:54,080 anatoly ivanishin and von wagner make 448 00:19:58,549 --> 00:19:55,840 their way into the international space 449 00:20:03,029 --> 00:20:00,470 but for now back to twitter 450 00:20:05,350 --> 00:20:03,039 got some more ask nasa questions tom 451 00:20:07,510 --> 00:20:05,360 dang wanted to know what the grid fin on 452 00:20:08,630 --> 00:20:07,520 the fairing of the soyuz launch vehicle 453 00:20:10,870 --> 00:20:08,640 does 454 00:20:13,430 --> 00:20:10,880 good eye and good question 455 00:20:15,990 --> 00:20:13,440 if you do remember that soyuz there are 456 00:20:19,590 --> 00:20:16,000 grid fins they're basically large 457 00:20:21,110 --> 00:20:19,600 structures on the launch shroud area 458 00:20:23,190 --> 00:20:21,120 so the very top of the rocket has a 459 00:20:25,110 --> 00:20:23,200 large white area with the launch escape 460 00:20:26,710 --> 00:20:25,120 tower on top and then a shroud that 461 00:20:29,270 --> 00:20:26,720 protects the soyuz during that ride 462 00:20:32,070 --> 00:20:29,280 uphill and there are four grid fins 463 00:20:34,950 --> 00:20:32,080 that are attached to the side those are 464 00:20:37,750 --> 00:20:34,960 stabilizers so in the event of what's 465 00:20:39,110 --> 00:20:37,760 known as a phase one abort so using that 466 00:20:41,110 --> 00:20:39,120 prime 467 00:20:43,029 --> 00:20:41,120 board tower on top 468 00:20:45,270 --> 00:20:43,039 and the solid rocket motors on the 469 00:20:47,110 --> 00:20:45,280 fairing itself those stabilizers are 470 00:20:49,430 --> 00:20:47,120 deployed in order to basically be 471 00:20:51,430 --> 00:20:49,440 attitude control a stabilizer to ensure 472 00:20:56,070 --> 00:20:51,440 the vehicle doesn't go into a roll and 473 00:20:59,909 --> 00:20:58,870 okay copy that's
