1 00:00:05,769 --> 00:00:02,790 foreign 2 00:00:08,810 --> 00:00:05,779 [Music] 3 00:00:11,209 --> 00:00:08,820 I'm Sandra Jones this week two 4 00:00:13,850 --> 00:00:11,219 first-timers suited up and took the Walk 5 00:00:16,210 --> 00:00:13,860 of a lifetime for a spacewalk outside 6 00:00:19,250 --> 00:00:16,220 the International Space Station that is 7 00:00:22,010 --> 00:00:19,260 also a first in the study of quantum 8 00:00:23,630 --> 00:00:22,020 gases in space and a seat liner move 9 00:00:26,929 --> 00:00:23,640 took place 10 00:00:29,450 --> 00:00:26,939 on Friday NASA astronaut Nicole Mann and 11 00:00:32,210 --> 00:00:29,460 Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency 12 00:00:34,910 --> 00:00:32,220 astronaut koichiwakata ventured outside 13 00:00:37,549 --> 00:00:34,920 of the Space Station's West airlock to 14 00:00:40,190 --> 00:00:37,559 conduct a spacewalk in anticipation of 15 00:00:41,990 --> 00:00:40,200 future solar array installation the 16 00:00:44,389 --> 00:00:42,000 space walking Duo worked to install 17 00:00:46,610 --> 00:00:44,399 mounting platforms as part of planned 18 00:00:47,990 --> 00:00:46,620 solar array augmentation of the 19 00:00:50,630 --> 00:00:48,000 starboard side of the International 20 00:00:52,670 --> 00:00:50,640 Space Station's truss the installation 21 00:00:54,110 --> 00:00:52,680 is part of a series of space walks to 22 00:00:55,910 --> 00:00:54,120 augment the International Space 23 00:00:57,770 --> 00:00:55,920 Station's power Channels with new 24 00:01:01,010 --> 00:00:57,780 International Space Station roll out 25 00:01:03,110 --> 00:01:01,020 solar arrays or iroses four iroses have 26 00:01:05,270 --> 00:01:03,120 been installed so far and two more will 27 00:01:07,789 --> 00:01:05,280 be mounted to the platforms installed 28 00:01:10,070 --> 00:01:07,799 during space walks in the future the 29 00:01:12,469 --> 00:01:10,080 unique microgravity environment of space 30 00:01:14,270 --> 00:01:12,479 allows research to be done in a truly 31 00:01:16,789 --> 00:01:14,280 Out of This World Way aboard the 32 00:01:19,190 --> 00:01:16,799 International Space Station one example 33 00:01:20,109 --> 00:01:19,200 of such a study includes the cold atom 34 00:01:25,730 --> 00:01:20,119 lab 35 00:01:28,429 --> 00:01:25,740 have now simultaneously produced gases 36 00:01:30,770 --> 00:01:28,439 of two Atomic species and a uniquely 37 00:01:33,649 --> 00:01:30,780 Quantum or wave-like phase of matter 38 00:01:36,710 --> 00:01:33,659 called a Bose-Einstein condensate for 39 00:01:38,990 --> 00:01:36,720 the first time in space really very much 40 00:01:40,249 --> 00:01:39,000 the same kind of atom trap that we've 41 00:01:41,929 --> 00:01:40,259 got on the ground but the beauty is 42 00:01:44,270 --> 00:01:41,939 we've got it up here and so we don't 43 00:01:46,969 --> 00:01:44,280 have to put any energy into holding 44 00:01:48,590 --> 00:01:46,979 these atoms these really cold atoms in 45 00:01:50,030 --> 00:01:48,600 their location and so that means we can 46 00:01:52,670 --> 00:01:50,040 get down to really really cold 47 00:01:55,609 --> 00:01:52,680 temperatures and the dwell time of those 48 00:01:58,429 --> 00:01:55,619 atoms interacting is fairly significant 49 00:02:00,170 --> 00:01:58,439 like on order of 10 or 20 seconds the 50 00:02:01,490 --> 00:02:00,180 cool thing for me is you know that 51 00:02:03,530 --> 00:02:01,500 that's an experiment where you can see 52 00:02:06,830 --> 00:02:03,540 quantum mechanics happening on the 53 00:02:09,109 --> 00:02:06,840 macroscopic level Ultra cold Atomic 54 00:02:11,390 --> 00:02:09,119 gases provide a unique tool for 55 00:02:13,550 --> 00:02:11,400 exploring the quantum nature of matter 56 00:02:16,729 --> 00:02:13,560 and for probing the foundations of 57 00:02:19,490 --> 00:02:16,739 modern physics cold atom lab is now the 58 00:02:21,890 --> 00:02:19,500 first and only Quantum gas experiment in 59 00:02:24,470 --> 00:02:21,900 space with with multiple Atomic species 60 00:02:26,690 --> 00:02:24,480 available for study base to ground also 61 00:02:29,869 --> 00:02:26,700 taking place this week was a seat liner 62 00:02:32,330 --> 00:02:29,879 move for NASA astronaut Frank Rubio NASA 63 00:02:34,369 --> 00:02:32,340 astronauts Josh cassida and Nicole Mann 64 00:02:36,890 --> 00:02:34,379 worked inside the SpaceX Dragon 65 00:02:39,229 --> 00:02:36,900 endurance cruise ship moving Rubio's 66 00:02:42,890 --> 00:02:39,239 seat liner from the rose Cosmos soyuz 67 00:02:44,630 --> 00:02:42,900 ms-22 spacecraft to the crew Dragon the 68 00:02:47,330 --> 00:02:44,640 seat liner move is taking place 69 00:02:50,089 --> 00:02:47,340 following the external cooling Loop leak 70 00:02:52,369 --> 00:02:50,099 on soyuz last month this move ensures 71 00:02:54,949 --> 00:02:52,379 that Rubio would be able to return to 72 00:02:57,710 --> 00:02:54,959 Earth aboard crew dragon and reduces the 73 00:03:00,410 --> 00:02:57,720 heat load inside the ms-22 spacecraft 74 00:03:02,750 --> 00:03:00,420 for cosmonauts Sergey prokopiev and 75 00:03:05,030 --> 00:03:02,760 Dimitri patellen in the unlikely event 76 00:03:07,430 --> 00:03:05,040 of an emergency evacuation from the 77 00:03:10,610 --> 00:03:07,440 space station a replacement spacecraft 78 00:03:13,250 --> 00:03:10,620 soyuz ms-23 will launch to the station 79 00:03:16,009 --> 00:03:13,260 next month once docked to the station 80 00:03:18,410 --> 00:03:16,019 prokopia of patellen and Rubio will 81 00:03:19,430 --> 00:03:18,420 return to Earth on that soyuz later this 82 00:03:21,710 --> 00:03:19,440 year 83 00:03:24,229 --> 00:03:21,720 and that's space to ground for this week 84 00:03:26,509 --> 00:03:24,239 thanks so much for watching you can get 85 00:03:29,290 --> 00:03:26,519 a daily on-orbit status report by
