1
00:00:00,583 --> 00:00:02,335
>> OKAY, THREE, TWO, ONE.

2
00:00:08,133 --> 00:00:09,551
HELLO, I'VE BEEN LUCKY ENOUGH

3
00:00:09,551 --> 00:00:11,302
TO SPEND, UH, UH,

4
00:00:11,302 --> 00:00:13,805
EXACTLY ONE LEAP YEAR

5
00:00:13,805 --> 00:00:14,848
ON THE SPACE STATION.

6
00:00:14,848 --> 00:00:16,766
366 DAYS.

7
00:00:16,766 --> 00:00:18,143
SO YOU CAN IMAGINE, I MEAN,

8
00:00:18,143 --> 00:00:20,145
IN 366 DAYS YOU GET TO SEE

9
00:00:20,145 --> 00:00:21,521
THE EARTH QUITE A BIT.

10
00:00:21,521 --> 00:00:22,814
EVEN THOUGH WE'RE SO BUSY

11
00:00:22,814 --> 00:00:23,982
ON THE SPACE STATION,

12
00:00:23,982 --> 00:00:25,608
WE DO MANAGE-- WE DO TRY

13
00:00:25,608 --> 00:00:27,485
TO LOOK OUTSIDE AND GLIMPSE

14
00:00:27,485 --> 00:00:28,945
WHAT'S FLYING BELOW US

15
00:00:28,945 --> 00:00:30,488
ANY CHANCE WE GET.

16
00:00:45,253 --> 00:00:47,046
THERE WAS A PART OF ME--

17
00:00:47,046 --> 00:00:48,965
TH-THE DREAMER THAT-THAT...

18
00:00:48,965 --> 00:00:50,884
THE LITTLE KID THAT

19
00:00:50,884 --> 00:00:52,385
STARTED DREAMING ABOUT

20
00:00:52,385 --> 00:00:54,387
THIS WHOLE EXPERIENCE, UH,

21
00:00:54,387 --> 00:00:58,475
NOW BASICALLY 40 YEARS AGO.

22
00:00:58,475 --> 00:01:00,518
THAT PART OF ME WAS STILL THERE,

23
00:01:00,518 --> 00:01:03,146
UNCHANGED FOR 30 OR 40 YEARS

24
00:01:03,146 --> 00:01:04,856
AND JUST MARVELING

25
00:01:04,856 --> 00:01:06,316
INCREDULOUSLY AT THE BEAUTY

26
00:01:06,316 --> 00:01:07,484
OF IT ALL.

27
00:01:07,484 --> 00:01:09,360
AND I WOULD SEE CLOUDS

28
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,029
AND GREEN AND RIVERS.

29
00:01:11,029 --> 00:01:12,781
AND IT WOULD JUST

30
00:01:12,781 --> 00:01:14,866
COMPLETELY FILL MY EYES.

31
00:01:14,866 --> 00:01:16,826
THE DIFFERENCE IN

32
00:01:16,826 --> 00:01:17,952
OBSERVING THE WORLD

33
00:01:17,952 --> 00:01:19,245
OR THE UNIVERSE

34
00:01:19,245 --> 00:01:21,039
FROM INSIDE THE SPACE STATION

35
00:01:21,039 --> 00:01:23,082
LOOKING THROUGH THE WINDOWS

36
00:01:23,082 --> 00:01:25,043
OR BEING OUTSIDE IS

37
00:01:25,043 --> 00:01:26,795
WHAT I DESCRIBE AS

38
00:01:26,795 --> 00:01:28,922
THE SAME LEVEL OF INTERACTION

39
00:01:28,922 --> 00:01:30,131
THAT YOU CAN HAVE

40
00:01:30,131 --> 00:01:31,633
LOOKING AT A BEAUTIFUL AQUARIUM

41
00:01:31,633 --> 00:01:34,427
FROM THE SAFETY OF A ROOM.

42
00:01:39,432 --> 00:01:40,600
WHEN YOU'RE OUTSIDE

43
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,268
AND ALL YOU HAVE IS THE HELMET

44
00:01:42,268 --> 00:01:44,312
AND MAYBE ONE HALF INCH

45
00:01:44,312 --> 00:01:46,231
OF PLEXIGLASS

46
00:01:46,231 --> 00:01:47,732
IN FRONT OF YOUR EYES,

47
00:01:47,732 --> 00:01:50,568
YOU CAN SEE DETAILS AND COLORS

48
00:01:50,568 --> 00:01:53,029
AND SHAPES.

49
00:01:53,029 --> 00:01:54,155
THE LEVEL OF DETAIL

50
00:01:54,155 --> 00:01:55,240
THAT YOU CAN CAPTURE

51
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,116
AND THE WAY YOU EXPERIENCE

52
00:01:57,116 --> 00:01:58,743
THAT UNIVERSE IS GOING TO BE

53
00:01:58,743 --> 00:02:00,703
VERY, VERY DIFFERENT.

54
00:02:00,703 --> 00:02:02,413
YOU WANT AND YOU FEEL

55
00:02:02,413 --> 00:02:04,541
THAT YOU HAVE BECOME PART OF IT.

56
00:02:04,541 --> 00:02:06,292
AND YOU CAN DEVELOP

57
00:02:06,292 --> 00:02:08,419
THAT SENSE OF BELONGING.

58
00:02:21,558 --> 00:02:23,017
I THINK THAT THE FIRST IMPACT

59
00:02:23,017 --> 00:02:24,853
OF THE FIRST FLIGHT

60
00:02:24,853 --> 00:02:26,688
WAS THAT I DID--

61
00:02:26,688 --> 00:02:28,314
I DID SEE AND I DID SENSE

62
00:02:28,314 --> 00:02:30,233
HOW FRAGILE, HOW--

63
00:02:30,233 --> 00:02:32,402
HOW SMALL THE EARTH IS.

64
00:02:32,402 --> 00:02:34,571
WE-WE ALL USED TO THINK

65
00:02:34,571 --> 00:02:35,947
OF THE EARTH AS SOMETHING

66
00:02:35,947 --> 00:02:38,157
SO VAST AND BIG AND--

67
00:02:38,157 --> 00:02:40,743
WE DON'T-- WE DON'T THINK THAT

68
00:02:40,743 --> 00:02:43,496
WHAT WE DO OUR-OUR DAILY LIFE

69
00:02:43,496 --> 00:02:44,998
CAN AFFECT SUCH-SUCH

70
00:02:44,998 --> 00:02:47,417
A VAST SYSTEM.

71
00:02:47,417 --> 00:02:49,335
BUT FROM SPACE

72
00:02:49,335 --> 00:02:51,212
YOU GET A SENSE THAT EVERY--

73
00:02:51,212 --> 00:02:53,339
EVERY INDIVIDUAL,

74
00:02:53,339 --> 00:02:55,508
EVERY LIVING ORGANISM

75
00:02:55,508 --> 00:02:57,552
IS SOMEHOW CONNECTED.

76
00:02:57,552 --> 00:02:59,888
SEEING THE CITY LIGHTS AT NIGHT

77
00:02:59,888 --> 00:03:01,764
WHERE A PLACE LIKE EUROPE

78
00:03:01,764 --> 00:03:02,932
OR THE UNITED STATES

79
00:03:02,932 --> 00:03:05,518
OR ASIA, DENSELY POPULATED,

80
00:03:05,518 --> 00:03:07,687
EVERYTHING IS INTERCONNECTED.

81
00:03:07,687 --> 00:03:08,730
AND ALL THOSE LINES

82
00:03:08,730 --> 00:03:10,607
AND ALL THOSE LIGHTS

83
00:03:10,607 --> 00:03:11,774
ARE APPARENT.

84
00:03:11,774 --> 00:03:12,817
THEY-THEY ARE RIGHT

85
00:03:12,817 --> 00:03:14,444
IN FRONT OF YOU, ALL TOGETHER.

86
00:03:14,444 --> 00:03:16,112
AND YOU THINK THAT, YOU KNOW,

87
00:03:16,112 --> 00:03:17,822
ALL-ALL WE ARE DOING

88
00:03:17,822 --> 00:03:20,325
SOMEHOW HAS A-- HAS AN AFFECT

89
00:03:20,325 --> 00:03:23,161
ON EVERYBODY ELSE.

90
00:03:23,161 --> 00:03:24,454
YOU COME BACK FROM A--

91
00:03:24,454 --> 00:03:25,622
FROM AN EXPERIENCE LIKE THAT

92
00:03:25,622 --> 00:03:26,539
THINKING THAT THAT'S

93
00:03:26,539 --> 00:03:27,457
WHAT'S HAPPENING

94
00:03:27,457 --> 00:03:29,208
AND THEN YOU CAN SEE

95
00:03:29,208 --> 00:03:31,085
THE EFFECTS.

96
00:03:31,085 --> 00:03:32,253
NOT THE POSITIVE ONES

97
00:03:32,253 --> 00:03:33,838
BUT MOSTLY THE NEGATIVE ONES

98
00:03:33,838 --> 00:03:34,881
IN A SECOND FLIGHT.

99
00:03:34,881 --> 00:03:36,633
AND I THINK YOU-YOU HAVE

100
00:03:36,633 --> 00:03:38,259
TO ACKNOWLEDGE

101
00:03:38,259 --> 00:03:40,178
AND GROW AN AWARENESS.

102
00:03:40,178 --> 00:03:41,471
AND WITH THAT AWARENESS

103
00:03:41,471 --> 00:03:44,849
COMES THE DESIRE TO-TO SHARE.

104
00:03:44,849 --> 00:03:46,017
TO SHARE AND EXPERIENCE

105
00:03:46,017 --> 00:03:48,603
AND-AND SHARE AN AWARENESS.

106
00:03:48,603 --> 00:03:50,980
IT'S UNDERSTANDING THAT, UH,

107
00:03:50,980 --> 00:03:53,149
THE SCIENCE THAT'S TELLING US

108
00:03:53,149 --> 00:03:54,984
HOW WE ARE CHANGING

109
00:03:54,984 --> 00:03:56,653
AND INFLUENCING THE WORLD

110
00:03:56,653 --> 00:03:58,821
HAS SULLIED MATHEMATICAL AND--

111
00:03:58,821 --> 00:04:00,531
SULLIED MATHEMATICAL BASE

112
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:03,534
AND THEN YOU SEE

113
00:04:03,534 --> 00:04:04,953
THE EFFECTS OF IT

114
00:04:04,953 --> 00:04:06,913
AND JUST INTERNALIZE IT,

115
00:04:06,913 --> 00:04:08,790
YOU MAKE IT YOUR OWN EXPERIENCE.

116
00:04:08,790 --> 00:04:09,874
AND I THINK THAT

117
00:04:09,874 --> 00:04:10,833
THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED.

118
00:04:10,833 --> 00:04:12,835
THAT THAT'S WHY ASTRONAUTS,

119
00:04:12,835 --> 00:04:15,505
UM, DEVELOP AN AWARENESS OF

120
00:04:15,505 --> 00:04:17,090
AND THE DESIRE TO HELP
