houston station on space to ground

2
00:00:09,110 --> 00:00:06,960
welcome to space to ground i'm shanique

3
00:00:10,709 --> 00:00:09,120
wolverine this week boeing's second

4
00:00:12,870 --> 00:00:10,719
orbital test flight launched to the

5
00:00:14,870 --> 00:00:12,880
space station astronauts on board

6
00:00:16,470 --> 00:00:14,880
demonstrated deep space health and you

7
00:00:19,029 --> 00:00:16,480
can hear from the man with the single

8
00:00:21,029 --> 00:00:19,039
longest space flight by an american

9
00:00:23,509 --> 00:00:21,039
and liftoff

10
00:00:25,910 --> 00:00:23,519
starliner is headed back to space

11
00:00:28,070 --> 00:00:25,920
on thursday may 19th boeing's orbital

12
00:00:30,550 --> 00:00:28,080
flight test 2 lifted off from space

13
00:00:32,470 --> 00:00:30,560
launch complex 41 at cape canaveral

14
00:00:35,110 --> 00:00:32,480
space force station in florida on a

15
00:00:37,190 --> 00:00:35,120
united launch alliance atlas 5 rocket

16
00:00:38,630 --> 00:00:37,200
the starliner spacecraft is currently in

17
00:00:41,190 --> 00:00:38,640
route to dock with the international

18
00:00:43,430 --> 00:00:41,200
space station on friday night may 20th

19
00:00:45,510 --> 00:00:43,440
it will return to earth in late may with

20
00:00:47,510 --> 00:00:45,520
a parachute assisted desert landing in

21
00:00:49,750 --> 00:00:47,520
the western united states

22
00:00:52,950 --> 00:00:49,760
you can follow the flight on nasa tv

23
00:00:55,110 --> 00:00:52,960
nasa.gov and the nasa app

24
00:00:57,590 --> 00:00:55,120
so what do astronauts do when they have

25
00:00:59,590 --> 00:00:57,600
no doctors around

26
00:01:01,430 --> 00:00:59,600
this week the crew conducted their r

27
00:01:03,830 --> 00:01:01,440
health demonstration test using a

28
00:01:06,230 --> 00:01:03,840
modified commercial off-the-shelf device

29
00:01:09,030 --> 00:01:06,240
to diagnose certain medical conditions

30
00:01:11,670 --> 00:01:09,040
the device uses flow cytometry a method

31
00:01:13,670 --> 00:01:11,680
using lasers to sort and identify cells

32
00:01:16,469 --> 00:01:13,680
and can analyze cell count and cell

33
00:01:19,429 --> 00:01:16,479
characteristics detect microorganisms

34
00:01:21,749 --> 00:01:19,439
biomarkers and proteins and diagnose

35
00:01:23,429 --> 00:01:21,759
health disorders such as blood cancers

36
00:01:25,030 --> 00:01:23,439
the demonstration verifies that the

37
00:01:27,429 --> 00:01:25,040
hardware can function in the space

38
00:01:29,270 --> 00:01:27,439
environment and evaluates its accuracy

39
00:01:31,190 --> 00:01:29,280
monitoring crew health on deep space

40
00:01:33,429 --> 00:01:31,200
exploration missions presents unique

41
00:01:35,510 --> 00:01:33,439
challenges including limited space for

42
00:01:37,990 --> 00:01:35,520
medical devices and the inability to

43
00:01:39,910 --> 00:01:38,000
return samples to earth for analysis

44
00:01:42,230 --> 00:01:39,920
this technology also could provide

45
00:01:44,389 --> 00:01:42,240
timely cost-effective reliable and

46
00:01:46,870 --> 00:01:44,399
convenient diagnostic tests for patients

47
00:01:48,710 --> 00:01:46,880
on earth who lack access to robust

48
00:01:50,870 --> 00:01:48,720
healthcare infrastructure

49
00:01:53,109 --> 00:01:50,880
and a name to remember

50
00:01:57,429 --> 00:01:53,119
mark vande hi

51
00:01:59,350 --> 00:01:57,439
is the special guest on houston we have

52
00:02:01,270 --> 00:01:59,360

53
00:02:03,830 --> 00:02:01,280
record-breaking one-year mission aboard

54
00:02:05,590 --> 00:02:03,840
the iss and what it's like being home

55
00:02:07,350 --> 00:02:05,600
after a year in space

56
00:02:09,350 --> 00:02:07,360

podcast and soundcloud

60
00:02:17,430 --> 00:02:15,920
that's space to ground for this week

61
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:17,440
