just over six 33 00:01:25,830 --> 00:01:24,159 hours later the trio joined the seven 34 00:01:27,830 --> 00:01:25,840 astronauts and cosmonauts living aboard 35 00:01:30,710 --> 00:01:27,840 the space station for a scheduled 11-day 36 00:01:33,030 --> 00:01:30,720 mission before returning to earth 37 00:01:35,270 --> 00:01:33,040 this week nasa announced the 10 newest 38 00:01:37,350 --> 00:01:35,280 astronaut candidates out of 12 000 39 00:01:39,510 --> 00:01:37,360 applicants let's give them a big round 40 00:01:40,950 --> 00:01:39,520 of applause the 2021 nasa astronaut 41 00:01:43,270 --> 00:01:40,960 candidates were announced on monday 42 00:01:44,950 --> 00:01:43,280 december 6th over the next two years 43 00:01:46,710 --> 00:01:44,960 these astronauts will train at nasa's 44 00:01:49,030 --> 00:01:46,720 johnson space center in disciplines like 45 00:01:52,069 --> 00:01:49,040 space station systems russian language 46 00:01:53,830 --> 00:01:52,079 spacewalk training t-38 flying and more 47 00:01:55,109 --> 00:01:53,840 these candidates may someday travel to 48 00:01:57,109 --> 00:01:55,119 the space station commercial 49 00:01:59,510 --> 00:01:57,119 destinations and eventually the moon 50 00:02:01,270 --> 00:01:59,520 with the artemis program 51 00:02:04,149 --> 00:02:01,280 a new facility is finding its home 52 00:02:06,149 --> 00:02:04,159 aboard the orbiting laboratory this week 53 00:02:08,710 --> 00:02:06,159 on tuesday installation began of the 54 00:02:10,229 --> 00:02:08,720 flow boiling and condensation experiment 55 00:02:12,070 --> 00:02:10,239 the goal of this new facility is to 56 00:02:14,309 --> 00:02:12,080 collect data about two-phase flow and 57 00:02:15,910 --> 00:02:14,319 heat transfer in microgravity we'll need 58 00:02:17,910 --> 00:02:15,920 to generate more power during longer 59 00:02:20,070 --> 00:02:17,920 space missions meaning the heat produced 60 00:02:21,750 --> 00:02:20,080 needs to be dissipated 61 00:02:23,670 --> 00:02:21,760 two-phase thermal management systems 62 00:02:25,830 --> 00:02:23,680 reduce the size and weight of the system 63 00:02:27,750 --> 00:02:25,840 and make heat removal more efficient 64 00:02:29,430 --> 00:02:27,760 this experiment is yet another way the 65 00:02:31,030 --> 00:02:29,440 work being done on the space station 66 00:02:32,790 --> 00:02:31,040 continues to prepare us for future 67 00:02:33,970 --> 00:02:32,800 destinations deeper into the solar 68 00:02:35,990 --> 00:02:33,980 system 69 00:02:37,509 --> 00:02:36,000 [Music] 70 00:02:38,930 --> 00:02:37,519 all for today on space to ground we'll 71 00:02:44,660 --> 00:02:38,940 see you next week 72 00:02:51,509 --> 00:02:49,670 [Music] 73 00:02:53,750 --> 00:02:51,519 the international space station crew 74 00:02:56,309 --> 00:02:53,760 members are also on the lookout for the 75 00:02:59,110 --> 00:02:56,319 next delivery due later this month when 76 00:03:01,509 --> 00:02:59,120 a spacex cargo dragon ship arrives with 77 00:03:03,830 --> 00:03:01,519 a new load of science experiments and 78 00:03:05,589 --> 00:03:03,840 technology demonstrations here's a few 79 00:03:07,070 --> 00:03:05,599 of the highlights of what's on the way 80 00:03:18,170 --> 00:03:07,080 to space 81 00:05:12,230 --> 00:03:18,180 [Music] 82 00:05:16,469 --> 00:05:14,550 each group of astronauts and cosmonauts 83 00:05:18,629 --> 00:05:16,479 who complete a long-duration mission to 84 00:05:21,350 --> 00:05:18,639 the international space station spend 85 00:05:22,870 --> 00:05:21,360 time on a unique subset of the kinds of 86 00:05:24,710 --> 00:05:22,880 experiments that are headed to the 87 00:05:26,629 --> 00:05:24,720 station later this month 88 00:05:29,270 --> 00:05:26,639 recently the astronauts who rode to 89 00:05:31,510 --> 00:05:29,280 space on the crew 2 spaceship came back 90 00:05:33,990 --> 00:05:31,520 to earth with their own legacy of work 91 00:05:35,749 --> 00:05:34,000 on hundreds of experiments here's a look 92 00:05:40,290 --> 00:05:35,759 at just some of their accomplishments 93 00:05:44,550 --> 00:05:40,300 during 199 days in space 94 00:05:49,430 --> 00:05:44,560 [Music] 95 00:05:53,350 --> 00:05:52,150 the crew is go for ingress and you can 96 00:05:55,909 --> 00:05:53,360 see 97 00:05:57,830 --> 00:05:55,919 aki is the first to 98 00:05:59,110 --> 00:05:57,840 ingress onto the international space 99 00:06:00,469 --> 00:05:59,120 station 100 00:06:02,230 --> 00:06:00,479 we're so excited to be here we're ready 101 00:06:04,309 --> 00:06:02,240 to get to work there's a lot of great 102 00:06:08,270 --> 00:06:04,319 science and that we're just excited to 103 00:06:13,189 --> 00:06:11,590 [Music] 104 00:06:15,029 --> 00:06:13,199 the experiment that's taking up most of 105 00:06:16,870 --> 00:06:15,039 my time right now is called celestial 106 00:06:19,110 --> 00:06:16,880 immunity and it's a really interesting 107 00:06:21,510 --> 00:06:19,120 experiment that involves looking at 108 00:06:23,110 --> 00:06:21,520 immune pathways and i have an expert 109 00:06:25,029 --> 00:06:23,120 that's looking over my shoulder via 110 00:06:26,390 --> 00:06:25,039 camera and she can talk with me kind of 111 00:06:28,950 --> 00:06:26,400 step by step as we go through the 112 00:06:30,950 --> 00:06:28,960 process that looks good megan 113 00:06:32,710 --> 00:06:30,960 all right thank you very much i'm sure 114 00:06:34,790 --> 00:06:32,720 i'll be talking to you again tomorrow 115 00:06:36,390 --> 00:06:34,800 yes you will 116 00:06:38,390 --> 00:06:36,400 recently i've been working on a really 117 00:06:40,309 --> 00:06:38,400 interesting educational experiment it's 118 00:06:43,110 --> 00:06:40,319 called the blob it's that that 119 00:06:45,830 --> 00:06:43,120 crazy monocellular being that has no 120 00:06:48,230 --> 00:06:45,840 brain but can learn uh and can actually 121 00:06:49,670 --> 00:06:48,240 search food and solve mazes it's pretty 122 00:06:51,909 --> 00:06:49,680 contained on the space station don't 123 00:06:53,749 --> 00:06:51,919 worry about it it's very tiny uh but so 124 00:06:55,909 --> 00:06:53,759 we're we're working on all kinds of 125 00:06:57,909 --> 00:06:55,919 endeavors like this and every day you 126 00:06:59,270 --> 00:06:57,919 know brings its uh it's a lot of 127 00:07:00,710 --> 00:06:59,280 discoveries on the space station that's 128 00:07:03,350 --> 00:07:00,720 very exciting 129 00:07:05,670 --> 00:07:03,360 we're tracking a full and good deploy of 130 00:07:07,909 --> 00:07:05,680 that solar array so well done both of 131 00:07:10,070 --> 00:07:07,919 you it's beautiful 132 00:07:12,070 --> 00:07:10,080 we're in a season now actually of doing 133 00:07:14,309 --> 00:07:12,080 cargo ops we have two spacecraft that 134 00:07:15,749 --> 00:07:14,319 are attached to us that brought us cargo 135 00:07:17,990 --> 00:07:15,759 and now we're packing them back up to 136 00:07:19,749 --> 00:07:18,000 get them ready for departure 137 00:07:22,469 --> 00:07:19,759 onboard the international space station 138 00:07:26,309 --> 00:07:22,479 we do help out some of the development 139 00:07:29,510 --> 00:07:26,319 of medicine without gravity you get 140 00:07:31,749 --> 00:07:29,520 larger chunks of pure protein crystals 141 00:07:33,749 --> 00:07:31,759 what we're looking for today are 142 00:07:37,189 --> 00:07:33,759 needle-like structures perfect there 143 00:07:40,390 --> 00:07:39,029 well it is a fantastic view that we have 144 00:07:41,990 --> 00:07:40,400 we see the thin layer of atmosphere 145 00:07:43,909 --> 00:07:42,000 that's protecting all of you down on 146 00:07:45,909 --> 00:07:43,919 earth so just taking care of our planet 147 00:07:48,950 --> 00:07:45,919 has kind of been a change maybe mentally 148 00:07:51,110 --> 00:07:48,960 from seeing it from this perspective 149 00:07:53,110 --> 00:07:51,120 we are growing some chili peppers in the 150 00:07:54,550 --> 00:07:53,120 plant habitat here in the japanese 151 00:07:55,909 --> 00:07:54,560 experiment module 152 00:07:57,670 --> 00:07:55,919 it's one of the more complicated things 153 00:07:59,670 --> 00:07:57,680 that have been grown in space and so 154 00:08:01,350 --> 00:07:59,680 they do take a little longer to come to 155 00:08:03,110 --> 00:08:01,360 fruition so we're really hoping that we 156 00:08:04,790 --> 00:08:03,120 get to try some peppers before the end 157 00:08:06,950 --> 00:08:04,800 of our mission 158 00:08:09,350 --> 00:08:06,960 over the years the capabilities of the 159 00:08:10,869 --> 00:08:09,360 laboratory have expanded and grown along 160 00:08:12,230 --> 00:08:10,879 with the interest in doing this kind of 161 00:08:14,309 --> 00:08:12,240 research in low earth orbit which i 162 00:08:15,749 --> 00:08:14,319 think is really remarkable so we are 163 00:08:17,510 --> 00:08:15,759 really kind of at the peak of that i 164 00:08:19,110 --> 00:08:17,520 think and so we've seen a little bit of 165 00:08:21,430 --> 00:08:19,120 everything right we've done 166 00:08:24,230 --> 00:08:21,440 human immune system research so lots of 167 00:08:26,550 --> 00:08:24,240 research into medication formation 168 00:08:28,629 --> 00:08:26,560 fluids research combustion research even 169 00:08:29,990 --> 00:08:28,639 robotics research this huge range of 170 00:08:31,830 --> 00:08:30,000 different things that we've gotten to 171 00:08:33,909 --> 00:08:31,840 touch during our mission and the way 172 00:08:35,750 --> 00:08:33,919 science works as you know is this is the 173 00:08:37,829 --> 00:08:35,760 building blocks for stuff to come and so 174 00:08:39,509 --> 00:08:37,839 the results from these experiments will 175 00:08:40,949 --> 00:08:39,519 come out in the years to come but they 176 00:08:42,389 --> 00:08:40,959 will also be the foundation of 177 00:08:43,990 --> 00:08:42,399 experiments that are designed in the 178 00:08:45,829 --> 00:08:44,000 following years and so all of the 179 00:08:47,269 --> 00:08:45,839 research is going to be stuff that we 180 00:08:48,790 --> 00:08:47,279 get to say oh we had a little part of 181 00:08:49,990 --> 00:08:48,800 that we got we got our hands on a little 182 00:08:52,680 --> 00:08:50,000 bit of that which is a pretty neat 183 00:09:00,870 --> 00:08:52,690 feeling 184 00:09:05,430 --> 00:09:03,269 some potential future crew members on 185 00:09:07,509 --> 00:09:05,440 the international space station also 186 00:09:09,750 --> 00:09:07,519 were the center of attention this week 187 00:09:12,470 --> 00:09:09,760 as leah noted a moment ago nasa 188 00:09:14,630 --> 00:09:12,480 introduced a new class of 10 astronaut 189 00:09:17,350 --> 00:09:14,640 candidates who will begin training here 190 00:09:19,350 --> 00:09:17,360 at the johnson space center next month 191 00:09:21,269 --> 00:09:19,360 take a look these are the faces that 192 00:09:23,430 --> 00:09:21,279 you're going to be seeing from space and 193 00:09:27,910 --> 00:09:23,440 maybe from the moon and mars in the 194 00:09:32,150 --> 00:09:29,750 ladies and gentlemen 195 00:09:41,829 --> 00:09:32,160 today we are introducing to you 196 00:09:45,829 --> 00:09:43,990 my name is luke delaney i'm a retired 197 00:09:47,829 --> 00:09:45,839 major from the marine corps working at 198 00:09:50,470 --> 00:09:47,839 nasa langley as a research pilot and i'm 199 00:09:53,590 --> 00:09:50,480 now an astronaut candidate nasa 200 00:09:55,829 --> 00:09:53,600 astronaut to me is explorer at heart i 201 00:09:57,509 --> 00:09:55,839 think they're the very embodiment of it 202 00:10:05,350 --> 00:09:57,519 you get to inspire people from all walks 203 00:10:10,949 --> 00:10:08,389 to me it's somebody who's always 204 00:10:12,069 --> 00:10:10,959 challenging themselves and always trying 205 00:10:14,550 --> 00:10:12,079 to 206 00:10:16,310 --> 00:10:14,560 you know push the bounds of mankind 207 00:10:18,389 --> 00:10:16,320 i wanted to be an astronaut since i was 208 00:10:20,310 --> 00:10:18,399 a little kid i grew up wanting to learn 209 00:10:22,310 --> 00:10:20,320 how to fly learn how to go to space so 210 00:10:24,790 --> 00:10:22,320 some of my earliest memories are 211 00:10:26,389 --> 00:10:24,800 are of wanting to become an astronaut 212 00:10:28,790 --> 00:10:26,399 since i was little i've always had an 213 00:10:31,509 --> 00:10:28,800 affinity for the sky and for space and 214 00:10:34,010 --> 00:10:31,519 the stars and so i set my sights as a 215 00:10:36,310 --> 00:10:34,020 very young child on getting here 216 00:10:38,630 --> 00:10:36,320 [Music] 217 00:10:40,630 --> 00:10:38,640 it is just a chance to explore and just 218 00:10:42,870 --> 00:10:40,640 keep pushing where we can go and what's 219 00:10:45,590 --> 00:10:42,880 possible and what people are capable of 220 00:10:47,350 --> 00:10:45,600 a nasa astronaut is an explorer they get 221 00:10:49,190 --> 00:10:47,360 to go up and live in space and do 222 00:10:51,350 --> 00:10:49,200 research so that we can learn more about 223 00:10:53,990 --> 00:10:51,360 human space flight 224 00:10:57,030 --> 00:10:54,000 i think a nasa astronaut is the most 225 00:10:59,670 --> 00:10:57,040 visible part of a much larger team of 226 00:11:01,590 --> 00:10:59,680 individuals that are striving to 227 00:11:04,230 --> 00:11:01,600 improve humanity 228 00:11:06,470 --> 00:11:04,240 nasa astronaut to me 229 00:11:08,230 --> 00:11:06,480 is an ambassador for 230 00:11:09,430 --> 00:11:08,240 the nasa organization as well as its 231 00:11:11,910 --> 00:11:09,440 mission 232 00:11:13,430 --> 00:11:11,920 we're really lucky to be sort of the tip 233 00:11:15,269 --> 00:11:13,440 of a huge organization that's all 234 00:11:16,330 --> 00:11:15,279 working together to try to achieve some 235 00:11:26,829 --> 00:11:16,340 pretty amazing 236 00:11:29,509 --> 00:11:26,839 [Music] 237 00:11:32,230 --> 00:11:29,519 things international space station crew 238 00:11:34,389 --> 00:11:32,240 members and astronaut candidates get 239 00:11:36,389 --> 00:11:34,399 focused training on how to operate 240 00:11:38,710 --> 00:11:36,399 station equipment such as the 241 00:11:41,110 --> 00:11:38,720 microgravity sciences glove box an 242 00:11:43,910 --> 00:11:41,120 enclosed space for experiments that 243 00:11:46,150 --> 00:11:43,920 involve potentially hazardous materials 244 00:11:48,150 --> 00:11:46,160 in this speedy time segment astronaut 245 00:11:50,790 --> 00:11:48,160 peggy whitson pulls the rack out of the 246 00:11:53,509 --> 00:11:50,800 wall in the destiny laboratory to show 247 00:11:55,910 --> 00:11:53,519 us how the msg works 248 00:11:58,310 --> 00:11:55,920 today we wanted to talk to you about 249 00:11:59,910 --> 00:11:58,320 microgravity sciences glovebox we do all 250 00:12:01,430 --> 00:11:59,920 kinds of experiments in here i've grown 251 00:12:02,870 --> 00:12:01,440 tissue culture cells i've looked at how 252 00:12:04,470 --> 00:12:02,880 air and fluids separate i've grown 253 00:12:06,310 --> 00:12:04,480 superconductor crystals in here and they 254 00:12:07,670 --> 00:12:06,320 got up to over 700 degrees fahrenheit so 255 00:12:09,190 --> 00:12:07,680 this environment was to protect us from 256 00:12:10,870 --> 00:12:09,200 what was happening inside the experiment 257 00:12:12,230 --> 00:12:10,880 now i'm growing cells and they have to 258 00:12:13,750 --> 00:12:12,240 be grown in a sterile environment so now 259 00:12:14,790 --> 00:12:13,760 i'm protecting the cells from me by 260 00:12:16,389 --> 00:12:14,800 having them inside this environment so 261 00:12:17,750 --> 00:12:16,399 it's very flexible and we can change out 262 00:12:19,030 --> 00:12:17,760 all the experiments by opening up this 263 00:12:20,230 --> 00:12:19,040 big door on the front then once we've 264 00:12:21,590 --> 00:12:20,240 got the experiment set up inside you can 265 00:12:22,949 --> 00:12:21,600 access from the sides or we have this 266 00:12:24,150 --> 00:12:22,959 little air lock down here that if you 267 00:12:25,430 --> 00:12:24,160 wanted to you could access from here as 268 00:12:26,150 --> 00:12:25,440 well it's kind of like a transformer at 269 00:12:27,509 --> 00:12:26,160 the end of the day when you're done 270 00:12:29,190 --> 00:12:27,519 working with it you just push it back 271 00:12:30,550 --> 00:12:29,200 into the rack there we go and it fits 272 00:12:31,829 --> 00:12:30,560 right in very nicely within the rack 273 00:12:32,870 --> 00:12:31,839 volume the other thing that goes along 274 00:12:33,910 --> 00:12:32,880 with this or is attached to this is a 275 00:12:35,269 --> 00:12:33,920 microscope we have a fantastic 276 00:12:36,550 --> 00:12:35,279 microscope with capability to send the 277 00:12:37,350 --> 00:12:36,560 videos and pictures down to the ground 278 00:12:38,310 --> 00:12:37,360 on the ground been looking at the 279 00:12:39,670 --> 00:12:38,320 structures that are forming differently 280 00:12:40,870 --> 00:12:39,680 here in zero gravity that's why they're 281 00:12:42,710 --> 00:12:40,880 doing the research here is to see what 282 00:12:45,110 --> 00:12:42,720 what new they can discover so very cool 283 00:12:53,590 --> 00:12:45,120 science very cool piece of hardware 284 00:12:57,590 --> 00:12:55,430 astronauts on the international space 285 00:12:59,750 --> 00:12:57,600 station spend some of their time doing 286 00:13:02,389 --> 00:12:59,760 science experiments some of their time 287 00:13:04,389 --> 00:13:02,399 keeping their spaceship operating safely 288 00:13:07,350 --> 00:13:04,399 and sometimes they help explain 289 00:13:09,670 --> 00:13:07,360 scientific concepts to students on earth 290 00:13:11,910 --> 00:13:09,680 in this demonstration video one time 291 00:13:14,870 --> 00:13:11,920 station commander suni williams guides 292 00:13:16,790 --> 00:13:14,880 us as mark vandehei and jeff williams 293 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:16,800 use the weightless environment to 294 00:13:46,389 --> 00:13:44,230 [Music] 295 00:13:48,230 --> 00:13:46,399 hi i'm sunny williams and i'm an 296 00:13:50,069 --> 00:13:48,240 astronaut who's lived and worked aboard 297 00:13:52,310 --> 00:13:50,079 the international space station 298 00:13:54,949 --> 00:13:52,320 an amazing research laboratory that's 299 00:13:55,990 --> 00:13:54,959 orbiting the earth about 250 miles above 300 00:13:57,750 --> 00:13:56,000 us 301 00:13:59,990 --> 00:13:57,760 while we're at the space station we 302 00:14:03,030 --> 00:14:00,000 astronauts live and work in a 303 00:14:05,030 --> 00:14:03,040 microgravity environment do you think 304 00:14:06,629 --> 00:14:05,040 the laws of physics will hold up in the 305 00:14:08,310 --> 00:14:06,639 space station while experiencing 306 00:14:10,310 --> 00:14:08,320 microgravity 307 00:14:12,150 --> 00:14:10,320 let's check with nasa astronaut mark 308 00:14:18,389 --> 00:14:12,160 vandehei on the international space 309 00:14:22,629 --> 00:14:20,550 newton's first law of motion says an 310 00:14:26,629 --> 00:14:22,639 object at rest tends to stay at rest 311 00:14:27,670 --> 00:14:26,639 unless acted on by an outside force 312 00:14:30,310 --> 00:14:27,680 also 313 00:14:32,710 --> 00:14:30,320 an object in motion 314 00:14:34,870 --> 00:14:32,720 tends to stay in motion unless acted on 315 00:14:40,230 --> 00:14:34,880 by an outside force 316 00:14:44,389 --> 00:14:42,629 let's look at this from another angle 317 00:14:46,550 --> 00:14:44,399 over time the international space 318 00:14:49,910 --> 00:14:46,560 station slows down from experiencing a 319 00:14:53,030 --> 00:14:49,920 very small amount of drag or force 320 00:14:54,150 --> 00:14:53,040 from a tiny amount of atomic oxygen in 321 00:14:56,470 --> 00:14:54,160 space 322 00:14:58,470 --> 00:14:56,480 this is like the force you feel from the 323 00:14:59,750 --> 00:14:58,480 air if you stick your hand out of a 324 00:15:02,310 --> 00:14:59,760 moving car 325 00:15:04,470 --> 00:15:02,320 because of this the space station does 326 00:15:06,870 --> 00:15:04,480 what we call a reboost 327 00:15:08,870 --> 00:15:06,880 a reboost uses rocket engines to put a 328 00:15:11,829 --> 00:15:08,880 force on the space station 329 00:15:14,310 --> 00:15:11,839 this allows it to speed up just a little 330 00:15:16,550 --> 00:15:14,320 to remain in orbit around the earth 331 00:15:18,710 --> 00:15:16,560 let's join nasa astronaut jeff williams 332 00:15:22,230 --> 00:15:18,720 to check out what happens to the objects 333 00:15:23,910 --> 00:15:22,240 inside the space station when it begins 334 00:15:25,269 --> 00:15:23,920 now the way i'm going to demonstrate the 335 00:15:28,310 --> 00:15:25,279 acceleration that comes during the 336 00:15:30,949 --> 00:15:28,320 reboost is by using this camera uh 800 337 00:15:32,470 --> 00:15:30,959 millimeter land so it's pretty massive 338 00:15:35,110 --> 00:15:32,480 actually 339 00:15:36,230 --> 00:15:35,120 and you can see i can float it here 340 00:15:37,990 --> 00:15:36,240 and 341 00:15:39,350 --> 00:15:38,000 there's no reapers going on right now so 342 00:15:41,189 --> 00:15:39,360 the camera's not going to go anywhere 343 00:15:44,069 --> 00:15:41,199 just going to slowly drift due to the 344 00:15:46,310 --> 00:15:44,079 ventilation or or if i put any 345 00:15:47,749 --> 00:15:46,320 uh velocity into it it'll drift out of 346 00:15:49,990 --> 00:15:47,759 the scene but i'm going to try to hold 347 00:15:51,990 --> 00:15:50,000 it here steady and you can see that it 348 00:15:54,310 --> 00:15:52,000 stays very steady 349 00:15:56,150 --> 00:15:54,320 there's my camera i'm setting it up for 350 00:15:57,430 --> 00:15:56,160 ignition 351 00:16:00,310 --> 00:15:57,440 there it goes 352 00:16:02,470 --> 00:16:00,320 it actually came a little bit early 353 00:16:03,829 --> 00:16:02,480 now watch the camera accelerate 354 00:16:05,350 --> 00:16:03,839 toward you 355 00:16:06,310 --> 00:16:05,360 there it goes i'm going to reach out and 356 00:16:09,030 --> 00:16:06,320 grab it 357 00:16:11,350 --> 00:16:09,040 and bring it back in the view here 358 00:16:13,350 --> 00:16:11,360 and i'm holding it i'm actually feeling 359 00:16:14,389 --> 00:16:13,360 the acceleration i'm going to let go 360 00:16:18,710 --> 00:16:14,399 again 361 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:23,430 i'll try not to let it hit you 362 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:27,430 just gonna miss you 363 00:16:31,269 --> 00:16:29,430 yeah i'm gonna let go now 364 00:16:33,189 --> 00:16:31,279 and here i go drifting back toward you 365 00:16:36,790 --> 00:16:33,199 again so the acceleration applies to me 366 00:16:41,990 --> 00:16:39,670 reached our 2.7 meters per second that 367 00:16:43,030 --> 00:16:42,000 we desired and now if i let go of the 368 00:16:44,949 --> 00:16:43,040 camera 369 00:16:46,069 --> 00:16:44,959 it's not going anywhere so the burn is 370 00:16:48,470 --> 00:16:46,079 over 371 00:16:50,550 --> 00:16:48,480 reboost complete we'll stay in orbit for 372 00:16:52,310 --> 00:16:50,560 a little while longer 373 00:16:54,389 --> 00:16:52,320 can you use newton's first law to 374 00:16:56,230 --> 00:16:54,399 explain why the camera began moving 375 00:16:58,230 --> 00:16:56,240 without an astronaut putting a force 376 00:17:00,550 --> 00:16:58,240 directly on it 377 00:17:02,710 --> 00:17:00,560 i'm going to send you back to class so 378 00:17:04,630 --> 00:17:02,720 you can start to investigate this with 379 00:17:07,429 --> 00:17:04,640 the classroom connection found at 380 00:17:09,429 --> 00:17:07,439 nasa.gov demonstrations 381 00:17:11,669 --> 00:17:09,439 thanks for exploring a little physics on 382 00:17:15,950 --> 00:17:11,679 the space station with us today see you 383 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:29,830 [Music] 384 00:17:34,310 --> 00:17:32,310 there is an instrument on the outside of 385 00:17:36,470 --> 00:17:34,320 the international space station that has 386 00:17:39,669 --> 00:17:36,480 been sifting through cosmic ray 387 00:17:42,070 --> 00:17:39,679 particles since 2011 to help us learn 388 00:17:44,390 --> 00:17:42,080 more about the origins of our universe 389 00:17:47,190 --> 00:17:44,400 but the alpha magnetic spectrometer 390 00:17:49,270 --> 00:17:47,200 wasn't designed to operate that long or 391 00:17:51,669 --> 00:17:49,280 to be repaired in space so it could 392 00:17:53,990 --> 00:17:51,679 continue its mission but nasa's 393 00:17:55,830 --> 00:17:54,000 exploration and in-space services

space center figured out 397 00:18:05,669 --> 00:18:03,200 how to do just that and in today's tech 398 00:18:08,150 --> 00:18:05,679 on deck episode they show us how they 399 00:18:12,830 --> 00:18:10,310 before i started there and digging in 400 00:18:14,390 --> 00:18:12,840 that one that other bag here we go no 401 00:18:15,990 --> 00:18:14,400 problem 402 00:18:17,830 --> 00:18:16,000 if you need to fix something in space 403 00:18:19,590 --> 00:18:17,840 that wasn't designed to be fixed it's 404 00:18:21,510 --> 00:18:19,600 going to take all the experience you can 405 00:18:23,270 --> 00:18:21,520 get with that in mind when the 406 00:18:25,909 --> 00:18:23,280 international space station's alpha 407 00:18:27,029 --> 00:18:25,919 magnetic spectrometer or ams needed 408 00:18:29,029 --> 00:18:27,039 repairs 409 00:18:30,789 --> 00:18:29,039 nasa's johnson space center and goddard 410 00:18:32,789 --> 00:18:30,799 space flight center used their joint 411 00:18:34,950 --> 00:18:32,799 expertise to make it happen 412 00:18:37,270 --> 00:18:34,960 at goddard that expertise resides in 413 00:18:39,909 --> 00:18:37,280 nasa's exploration and in-space services 414 00:18:41,510 --> 00:18:39,919 division or nexus which evolved from the 415 00:18:43,190 --> 00:18:41,520 office that was responsible for the 416 00:18:45,270 --> 00:18:43,200 hubble space telescope servicing 417 00:18:47,590 --> 00:18:45,280 missions key to these missions was the 418 00:18:49,270 --> 00:18:47,600 development of specialized tools 419 00:18:51,590 --> 00:18:49,280 while you've probably heard of hubble 420 00:18:54,430 --> 00:18:51,600 you may not be as familiar with ams so 421 00:19:06,390 --> 00:18:54,440 let's start there 422 00:19:08,230 --> 00:19:06,400 [Music] 423 00:19:10,870 --> 00:19:08,240 designed for a three-year mission of 424 00:19:12,310 --> 00:19:10,880 sifting through cosmic ray particles ams 425 00:19:14,070 --> 00:19:12,320 has been looking for signs of dark 426 00:19:15,669 --> 00:19:14,080 matter from its position on station 427 00:19:17,430 --> 00:19:15,679 since 2011. 428 00:19:19,590 --> 00:19:17,440 hundreds of researchers have used the 429 00:19:21,590 --> 00:19:19,600 data collected to investigate the source 430 00:19:23,590 --> 00:19:21,600 of the mysterious substance to help us 431 00:19:24,470 --> 00:19:23,600 better understand the origins of the 432 00:19:25,990 --> 00:19:24,480 universe 433 00:19:28,630 --> 00:19:26,000 to continue this important data 434 00:19:30,310 --> 00:19:28,640 collection ams needed an upgrade due to 435 00:19:32,870 --> 00:19:30,320 general wear and tear from the harsh 436 00:19:35,430 --> 00:19:32,880 environment of space specifically a new 437 00:19:37,590 --> 00:19:35,440 cooling system a repair could extend its 438 00:19:40,230 --> 00:19:37,600 life beyond what was originally planned 439 00:19:42,150 --> 00:19:40,240 sounds easy enough right in fact due to 440 00:19:44,470 --> 00:19:42,160 the instrument's complexity and the fact 441 00:19:46,390 --> 00:19:44,480 that it was not designed to be repaired 442 00:19:49,430 --> 00:19:46,400 even gaining access to the system to 443 00:19:51,510 --> 00:19:49,440 replace it was difficult ams design did 444 00:19:53,990 --> 00:19:51,520 not incorporate the kinds of interfaces 445 00:19:55,830 --> 00:19:54,000 that make spacewalks easier or have the 446 00:19:58,549 --> 00:19:55,840 ability to be serviced with traditional 447 00:20:00,870 --> 00:19:58,559 multi-purpose tools and so over the 448 00:20:02,470 --> 00:20:00,880 course of four years nasa got to work 449 00:20:04,470 --> 00:20:02,480 designing and developing some of the 450 00:20:06,630 --> 00:20:04,480 most complex spacewalks since the hubble 451 00:20:08,950 --> 00:20:06,640 servicing missions in the 90s and early 452 00:20:11,750 --> 00:20:08,960 2000s to fix ams 453 00:20:13,590 --> 00:20:11,760 the ams tools themselves were 454 00:20:15,830 --> 00:20:13,600 unique they were built specifically for 455 00:20:18,549 --> 00:20:15,840 this task a task that was never intended 456 00:20:20,549 --> 00:20:18,559 to be performed on a spacewalk so that 457 00:20:22,710 --> 00:20:20,559 required a lot of thinking about how we 458 00:20:24,470 --> 00:20:22,720 were going to get inside so that we 459 00:20:26,549 --> 00:20:24,480 could access the tubes that we needed to 460 00:20:28,950 --> 00:20:26,559 cut into and then install the new 461 00:20:31,029 --> 00:20:28,960 thermal control system but also how to 462 00:20:32,390 --> 00:20:31,039 put handling aids on it so that we had a 463 00:20:34,789 --> 00:20:32,400 place to 464 00:20:37,029 --> 00:20:34,799 attach our tethers to attach our foot 465 00:20:39,350 --> 00:20:37,039 restraints to have hand holds have a 466 00:20:40,549 --> 00:20:39,360 place to attach equipment that we needed 467 00:20:42,870 --> 00:20:40,559 out there 468 00:20:45,510 --> 00:20:42,880 nasa developed 20 specialized tools to 469 00:20:48,549 --> 00:20:45,520 make the job possible and on november 15 470 00:20:50,470 --> 00:20:48,559 2019 astronauts andrew morgan and luca 471 00:20:52,390 --> 00:20:50,480 parmitano got to work 472 00:20:55,029 --> 00:20:52,400 on this first spacewalk astronauts 473 00:20:56,789 --> 00:20:55,039 needed to get access by design five of 474 00:20:59,110 --> 00:20:56,799 the tools could be seen floating off 475 00:21:00,950 --> 00:20:59,120 into space attached to the debris shield 476 00:21:03,510 --> 00:21:00,960 that was removed to give the astronauts 477 00:21:05,270 --> 00:21:03,520 access to the heart of ams 478 00:21:08,230 --> 00:21:05,280 the debris shield handling aid was one 479 00:21:11,750 --> 00:21:08,240 of the first tools that luca installed 480 00:21:14,149 --> 00:21:11,760 on the eva and this gave us a handhold 481 00:21:17,270 --> 00:21:14,159 to install on the debris shield to work 482 00:21:19,430 --> 00:21:17,280 from but also a handle for me to hold on 483 00:21:20,710 --> 00:21:19,440 to ultimately when we jettisoned it 484 00:21:22,789 --> 00:21:20,720 overboard 485 00:21:24,310 --> 00:21:22,799 to the aft side of the iss which was a 486 00:21:26,310 --> 00:21:24,320 lot of fun to do 487 00:21:28,310 --> 00:21:26,320 the astronauts continued with three more 488 00:21:29,990 --> 00:21:28,320 spacewalks over the next two months 489 00:21:31,110 --> 00:21:30,000 using all of the specially designed 490 00:21:33,270 --> 00:21:31,120 tools 491 00:21:35,190 --> 00:21:33,280 one such tool was the tube cutting guide 492 00:21:36,870 --> 00:21:35,200 which was a direct result of multiple 493 00:21:38,549 --> 00:21:36,880 practice sessions at johnson space 494 00:21:39,990 --> 00:21:38,559 center facilities like the neutral 495 00:21:42,149 --> 00:21:40,000 buoyancy lab 496 00:21:44,070 --> 00:21:42,159 while practicing astronauts communicated 497 00:21:46,310 --> 00:21:44,080 the need for a way to identify and 498 00:21:47,669 --> 00:21:46,320 verify the correct tubes to cut since 499 00:21:51,190 --> 00:21:47,679 they all look the same to the 500 00:21:53,590 --> 00:21:51,200 astronaut's eyes within the space suit 501 00:21:55,669 --> 00:21:53,600 after we had removed the debris shield 502 00:21:58,230 --> 00:21:55,679 and the vsb cover 503 00:22:00,549 --> 00:21:58,240 now we have the tubes exposed and we 504 00:22:02,149 --> 00:22:00,559 actually had to cut into those tubes in 505 00:22:03,830 --> 00:22:02,159 order to pull out the correct ones to 506 00:22:06,310 --> 00:22:03,840 connect with the new thermal control 507 00:22:08,390 --> 00:22:06,320 system the new pump in order to do that 508 00:22:10,789 --> 00:22:08,400 we had to be very sure of the tubes that 509 00:22:12,789 --> 00:22:10,799 we were cutting these ingenious tube 510 00:22:15,190 --> 00:22:12,799 cutting guides installed over the top of 511 00:22:17,110 --> 00:22:15,200 the tubes and made sure that we knew and 512 00:22:18,710 --> 00:22:17,120 we were communicating correctly with the 513 00:22:20,549 --> 00:22:18,720 ground team to make sure that we were 514 00:22:21,830 --> 00:22:20,559 cutting the correct tube at the right 515 00:22:24,870 --> 00:22:21,840 time 516 00:22:26,870 --> 00:22:24,880 in january 2020 luca parmitano and drew 517 00:22:29,110 --> 00:22:26,880 morgan completed the fourth and final 518 00:22:31,029 --> 00:22:29,120 spacewalk to repair ams 519 00:22:33,270 --> 00:22:31,039 because of their work and the ingenuity 520 00:22:35,270 --> 00:22:33,280 of tool designers and engineers the 521 00:22:37,430 --> 00:22:35,280 instrument is now back in commission and 522 00:22:39,590 --> 00:22:37,440 able to continue to collect data about 523 00:22:43,909 --> 00:22:39,600 the origins of our universe for years to 524 00:22:49,110 --> 00:22:46,710 people from goddard and jfc spent a lot 525 00:22:51,110 --> 00:22:49,120 of time developing these tools 526 00:22:53,830 --> 00:22:51,120 with their knowledge and the support of 527 00:22:56,470 --> 00:22:53,840 astronauts like chris cassidy 528 00:22:59,190 --> 00:22:56,480 we are very thankful that we were 529 00:22:59,610 --> 00:22:59,200 privileged to use those tools and put 530 00:23:00,789 --> 00:22:59,620 them to 531 00:23:02,950 --> 00:23:00,799 [Music] 532 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:02,960 make successful use 533 00:23:06,230 --> 00:23:04,050 thank you very much 534 00:23:09,909 --> 00:23:06,240 [Music] 535 00:23:11,990 --> 00:23:09,919 it's positioned 250 miles above earth 536 00:23:14,310 --> 00:23:12,000 makes the international space station a 537 00:23:17,350 --> 00:23:14,320 great location for scientific research 538 00:23:18,870 --> 00:23:17,360 about this planet this one right here 539 00:23:21,510 --> 00:23:18,880 and there's an instrument on board that 540 00:23:24,149 --> 00:23:21,520 gathers information about how plants on 541 00:23:26,230 --> 00:23:24,159 earth sweat which provides data to 542 00:23:28,210 --> 00:23:26,240 scientists who are monitoring the health 543 00:23:31,909 --> 00:23:28,220 of earth's vegetation 544 00:23:31,919 --> 00:23:37,590 sweating can be cool 545 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:42,230 presented by science at nasa 546 00:23:46,950 --> 00:23:44,390 did you ever notice how the air can seem 547 00:23:48,789 --> 00:23:46,960 cooler when you enter a forest humans 548 00:23:51,830 --> 00:23:48,799 aren't the only living things that sweat 549 00:23:53,909 --> 00:23:51,840 to cool off when trees and plants sweat 550 00:23:56,470 --> 00:23:53,919 they cool themselves and can cool the 551 00:23:58,950 --> 00:23:56,480 surrounding air through a process called 552 00:24:01,029 --> 00:23:58,960 transpiration water and nutrients are 553 00:24:03,269 --> 00:24:01,039 taken up by plant roots from soil and 554 00:24:05,190 --> 00:24:03,279 delivered to the stem and leaves as part 555 00:24:06,710 --> 00:24:05,200 of photosynthesis 556 00:24:08,950 --> 00:24:06,720 some of the water drawn up through the 557 00:24:12,230 --> 00:24:08,960 roots exits the plants through pores or 558 00:24:15,269 --> 00:24:12,240 stomata in its leaves hence the sweating 559 00:24:18,149 --> 00:24:15,279 as this sweat evaporates heat is removed 560 00:24:20,390 --> 00:24:18,159 from the air providing a cooling effect 561 00:24:22,549 --> 00:24:20,400 however if there isn't enough water 562 00:24:25,590 --> 00:24:22,559 available or relative humidity gets too 563 00:24:29,909 --> 00:24:25,600 high the stomata close the plant heats 564 00:24:31,510 --> 00:24:29,919 up ceases to grow and can eventually die 565 00:24:33,830 --> 00:24:31,520 healthy plants provide a number of 566 00:24:36,710 --> 00:24:33,840 ecosystem services to humans including 567 00:24:38,710 --> 00:24:36,720 food recreation and building materials 568 00:24:40,310 --> 00:24:38,720 plants also impact earth's global water 569 00:24:42,549 --> 00:24:40,320 and carbon cycles with plant 570 00:24:43,990 --> 00:24:42,559 transpiration accounting for around 10 571 00:24:45,350 --> 00:24:44,000 percent of the moisture in our 572 00:24:47,990 --> 00:24:45,360 atmosphere 573 00:24:50,950 --> 00:24:48,000 a new nasa mission called ecostress 574 00:24:53,590 --> 00:24:50,960 short for ecosystem spaceborne thermal 575 00:24:55,110 --> 00:24:53,600 radiometer experiment on space station 576 00:24:58,830 --> 00:24:55,120 was successfully launched to the 577 00:25:01,669 --> 00:24:58,840 international space station on june 29 578 00:25:04,149 --> 00:25:01,679 2018 ecostress will literally study how 579 00:25:05,669 --> 00:25:04,159 plants sweat providing the most detailed 580 00:25:07,430 --> 00:25:05,679 measurements of plant temperatures 581 00:25:09,110 --> 00:25:07,440 available from space and helping 582 00:25:11,029 --> 00:25:09,120 researchers monitor the health of 583 00:25:12,789 --> 00:25:11,039 earth's vegetation 584 00:25:14,470 --> 00:25:12,799 your temperature is one of the first 585 00:25:16,710 --> 00:25:14,480 things a doctor wants to know when you 586 00:25:18,710 --> 00:25:16,720 go for a checkup says simon hook 587 00:25:21,190 --> 00:25:18,720 ecostress principal investigator from 588 00:25:22,870 --> 00:25:21,200 nasa's jet propulsion laboratory it 589 00:25:25,269 --> 00:25:22,880 tells your doctor a lot about your 590 00:25:27,990 --> 00:25:25,279 condition temperature is an extremely 591 00:25:30,149 --> 00:25:28,000 useful indicator for plants too 592 00:25:32,230 --> 00:25:30,159 temperature data can indicate if a plant 593 00:25:34,710 --> 00:25:32,240 is stressed and needs more water before 594 00:25:36,870 --> 00:25:34,720 the plant collapses providing an early 595 00:25:37,669 --> 00:25:36,880 warning of a possible drought explains 596 00:25:39,669 --> 00:25:37,679 hook 597 00:25:42,230 --> 00:25:39,679 ecostress will be able to measure plant 598 00:25:44,870 --> 00:25:42,240 temperatures and therefore plant health 599 00:25:46,390 --> 00:25:44,880 over areas as small as an individual 600 00:25:48,549 --> 00:25:46,400 field of crops 601 00:25:50,870 --> 00:25:48,559 the international space station is well 602 00:25:51,750 --> 00:25:50,880 suited for the ecostress mission hook 603 00:25:53,830 --> 00:25:51,760 says 604 00:25:56,149 --> 00:25:53,840 most earth observing satellites are in a 605 00:25:58,630 --> 00:25:56,159 sun synchronous orbit so they pass over 606 00:26:00,710 --> 00:25:58,640 an area at the same time each day 607 00:26:02,950 --> 00:26:00,720 providing us a daily snapshot of that 608 00:26:05,750 --> 00:26:02,960 area because of the space station's 609 00:26:08,149 --> 00:26:05,760 orbit ecostress sees the same spot on 610 00:26:10,149 --> 00:26:08,159 earth every few days at different times 611 00:26:12,149 --> 00:26:10,159 of day so it can track changes 612 00:26:14,870 --> 00:26:12,159 throughout a typical day 613 00:26:16,470 --> 00:26:14,880 if during a hot dry afternoon plants 614 00:26:19,430 --> 00:26:16,480 stop releasing water to conserve 615 00:26:21,029 --> 00:26:19,440 supplies ecostress will see a change in 616 00:26:23,110 --> 00:26:21,039 temperature compared with previous 617 00:26:25,029 --> 00:26:23,120 measurements of the same area 618 00:26:27,909 --> 00:26:25,039 it will detect these kinds of responses 619 00:26:31,110 --> 00:26:27,919 in farmer's fields and other ecosystems 620 00:26:33,029 --> 00:26:31,120 data acquired from ecostress may in time 621 00:26:35,669 --> 00:26:33,039 help farmers develop crop watering 622 00:26:37,669 --> 00:26:35,679 protocols give researchers a clearer 623 00:26:39,750 --> 00:26:37,679 understanding of the effects of drought 624 00:26:42,470 --> 00:26:39,760 and assist water resource managers in 625 00:26:43,990 --> 00:26:42,480 planning effective water use its data 626 00:26:46,230 --> 00:26:44,000 could also reveal the effects of 627 00:26:48,549 --> 00:26:46,240 droughts on natural vegetation for 628 00:26:49,990 --> 00:26:48,559 example to help identify vulnerable 629 00:26:52,070 --> 00:26:50,000 types of trees 630 00:26:54,149 --> 00:26:52,080 forest managers and ecologists will be 631 00:26:56,630 --> 00:26:54,159 able to use this information to make 632 00:26:58,230 --> 00:26:56,640 better informed decisions 633 00:27:00,149 --> 00:26:58,240 but that's not all 634 00:27:03,510 --> 00:27:00,159 ecostress temperature data will be 635 00:27:06,070 --> 00:27:03,520 useful in a whole host of ways says hook 636 00:27:08,230 --> 00:27:06,080 we'll be able to use the same techniques 637 00:27:10,230 --> 00:27:08,240 developed to extract plant temperature 638 00:27:12,470 --> 00:27:10,240 to look at other phenomena such as the 639 00:27:16,070 --> 00:27:12,480 temperature of volcanoes urban heat 640 00:27:17,350 --> 00:27:16,080 waves wildfires coastal currents lakes 641 00:27:20,630 --> 00:27:17,360 and more 642 00:27:23,269 --> 00:27:20,640 that's a whole story in itself want to 643 00:27:29,830 --> 00:27:23,279 learn more about
