and i were 317 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,150 thomas and i were on our way to the space hab and of 318 00:06:12,150 --> 00:06:12,160 on our way to the space hab and of 319 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:13,830 on our way to the space hab and of course a very exciting moment for us 320 00:06:13,830 --> 00:06:13,840 course a very exciting moment for us 321 00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:15,590 course a very exciting moment for us here where we're opening the hatch to 322 00:06:15,590 --> 00:06:15,600 here where we're opening the hatch to 323 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,029 here where we're opening the hatch to the space have because this is where 324 00:06:17,029 --> 00:06:17,039 the space have because this is where 325 00:06:17,039 --> 00:06:18,790 the space have because this is where we're going to spend the majority of the 326 00:06:18,790 --> 00:06:18,800 we're going to spend the majority of the 327 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,510 we're going to spend the majority of the next 10 days and obviously eager to see 328 00:06:21,510 --> 00:06:21,520 next 10 days and obviously eager to see 329 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,749 next 10 days and obviously eager to see that everything looks fine and and 330 00:06:23,749 --> 00:06:23,759 that everything looks fine and and 331 00:06:23,759 --> 00:06:25,510 that everything looks fine and and certainly from our first look in there 332 00:06:25,510 --> 00:06:25,520 certainly from our first look in there 333 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:26,390 certainly from our first look in there it looked 334 00:06:26,390 --> 00:06:26,400 it looked 335 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,270 it looked as if space habit traveled very well 336 00:06:29,270 --> 00:06:29,280 as if space habit traveled very well 337 00:06:29,280 --> 00:06:32,710 as if space habit traveled very well meanwhile pilot kurt brown is in the mid 338 00:06:32,710 --> 00:06:32,720 meanwhile pilot kurt brown is in the mid 339 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,510 meanwhile pilot kurt brown is in the mid deck also doing some more configuration 340 00:06:35,510 --> 00:06:35,520 deck also doing some more configuration 341 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:37,510 deck also doing some more configuration on orbit here you see the 342 00:06:37,510 --> 00:06:37,520 on orbit here you see the 343 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,670 on orbit here you see the ergometer which is sort of an exercise 344 00:06:39,670 --> 00:06:39,680

is a very 349 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:45,830 the mid deck the ergometer is a very popular device 350 00:06:45,830 --> 00:06:45,840 popular device 351 00:06:45,840 --> 00:06:47,909 popular device used by all of the astronauts usually on 352 00:06:47,909 --> 00:06:47,919 used by all of the astronauts usually on 353 00:06:47,919 --> 00:06:49,510 used by all of the astronauts usually on a daily basis to get a little bit of 354 00:06:49,510 --> 00:06:49,520 a daily basis to get a little bit of 355 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:50,710 a daily basis to get a little bit of exercise 356 00:06:50,710 --> 00:06:50,720 exercise 357 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,469 exercise so that we can strain our muscles a 358 00:06:52,469 --> 00:06:52,479 so that we can strain our muscles a 359 00:06:52,479 --> 00:06:54,550 so that we can strain our muscles a little bit also on day one we had to 360 00:06:54,550 --> 00:06:54,560 little bit also on day one we had to 361 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,150 little bit also on day one we had to check out the arm because we were going 362 00:06:56,150 --> 00:06:56,160 check out the arm because we were going 363 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,790 check out the arm because we were going to use it later on for uh spartan deploy 364 00:06:58,790 --> 00:06:58,800 to use it later on for uh spartan deploy 365 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,710 to use it later on for uh spartan deploy and retrieve and andy thomas did all the 366 00:07:00,710 --> 00:07:00,720 and retrieve and andy thomas did all the 367 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,790 and retrieve and andy thomas did

00:10:00,470 --> 00:10:00,480 being deployed you can see the gyrations 533 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,790 being deployed you can see the gyrations that the spacecraft is going through 534 00:10:02,790 --> 00:10:02,800 that the spacecraft is going through 535 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:04,389 that the spacecraft is going through under that action 536 00:10:04,389 --> 00:10:04,399 under that action 537 00:10:04,399 --> 00:10:06,790 under that action the antenna when it was deployed was uh 538 00:10:06,790 --> 00:10:06,800 the antenna when it was deployed was uh 539 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,829 the antenna when it was deployed was uh nearly 100 feet long bright silver and 540 00:10:09,829 --> 00:10:09,839 nearly 100 feet long bright silver and 541 00:10:09,839 --> 00:10:11,829 nearly 100 feet long bright silver and nearly 50 feet in diameter and since we 542 00:10:11,829 --> 00:10:11,839 nearly 50 feet in diameter and since we 543 00:10:11,839 --> 00:10:13,990 nearly 50 feet in diameter and since we were only 400 feet away from it you can 544 00:10:13,990 --> 00:10:14,000 were only 400 feet away from it you can 545 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,990 were only 400 feet away from it you can imagine that it was a really grand sight 546 00:10:15,990 --> 00:10:16,000 imagine that it was a really grand sight 547 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,509 imagine that it was a really grand sight to see from or from orbit 548 00:10:19,509 --> 00:10:19,519 to see from or from orbit 549 00:10:19,519 --> 00:10:21,829 to see from or from orbit after a few moments the instabilities 550 00:10:21,829 --> 00:10:21,839 after a few moments the instabilities 551 00:10:21,839 --> 00:10:24,790 after a few moments the instabilities created by the inflation settled down 552 00:10:24,790 --> 00:10:24,800 created by the inflation settled down 553 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,750 created by the inflation settled down transit settled out and we got 554 00:10:27,750 --> 00:10:27,760 transit settled out and we got 555 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:36,389 transit settled out and we got a stable antenna in orbit 556 00:10:36,389 --> 00:10:36,399 557 00:10:36,399 --> 00:10:38,389 this shows a view of the canopy itself 558 00:10:38,389 --> 00:10:38,399 this shows a view of the canopy itself 559 00:10:38,399 --> 00:10:39,829 this shows a view of the canopy itself after the inflation you can see some 560 00:10:39,829 --> 00:10:39,839 after the inflation you can see some 561 00:10:39,839 --> 00:10:42,790 after the inflation you can see some ripples following the inflation process 562 00:10:42,790 --> 00:10:42,800 ripples following the inflation process 563 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:44,550 ripples following the inflation process we tracked it for one orbit while it did 564 00:10:44,550 --> 00:10:44,560 we tracked it for one orbit while it did 565 00:10:44,560 --> 00:10:46,150 we tracked it for one orbit while it did self measurements of its shape and then 566 00:10:46,150 --> 00:10:46,160 self measurements of its shape and then 567 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:47,910 self measurements of its shape and then we jettison the spartan spacecraft from 568 00:10:47,910 --> 00:10:47,920 we jettison the spartan spacecraft from 569 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:49,750 we jettison the spartan spacecraft from the antenna and the next frame will show 570 00:10:49,750 --> 00:10:49,760 the antenna and the next frame will show 571 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:51,509 the antenna and the next frame will show you the jettison process and i draw your 572 00:10:51,509 --> 00:10:51,519 you the jettison process and i draw your 573 00:10:51,519 --> 00:10:53,750 you the jettison process and i draw your attention to the canopy disc itself 574 00:10:53,750 --> 00:10:53,760 attention to the canopy disc itself 575 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:55,670 attention to the canopy disc itself where you'll see a shock wave that 576 00:10:55,670 --> 00:10:55,680 where you'll see a shock wave that 577 00:10:55,680 --> 00:10:58,230 where you'll see a shock wave that envelops the canopy as the pyros fire 578 00:10:58,230 --> 00:10:58,240 envelops the canopy as the pyros fire 579 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,550 envelops the canopy as the pyros fire and dump the spartan spacecraft there 580 00:11:00,550 --> 00:11:00,560 and dump the spartan spacecraft there 581 00:11:00,560 --> 00:11:01,990 and dump the spartan spacecraft there you see it 582 00:11:01,990 --> 00:11:02,000 you see it 583 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:03,829 you see it a bit like striking a 100 foot diameter 584 00:11:03,829 --> 00:11:03,839 a bit like striking a 100 foot diameter 585 00:11:03,839 --> 00:11:07,269 a bit like striking a 100 foot diameter drum 586 00:11:07,269 --> 00:11:07,279 587 00:11:07,279 --> 00:11:09,670 the jettison took place again as we're 588 00:11:09,670 --> 00:11:09,680 the jettison took place again as we're 589 00:11:09,680 --> 00:11:11,670 the jettison took place again as we're tracking over the united states we 590 00:11:11,670 --> 00:11:11,680 tracking over the united states we 591 00:11:11,680 --> 00:11:14,630 tracking over the united states we didn't retrieve the antenna itself 592 00:11:14,630 --> 00:11:14,640 didn't retrieve the antenna itself 593 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:15,990 didn't retrieve the antenna itself it subsequently re-entered the 594 00:11:15,990 --> 00:11:16,000 it subsequently re-entered the 595 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,990 it subsequently re-entered the atmosphere and burned up a couple of 596 00:11:17,990 --> 00:11:18,000 atmosphere and burned up a couple of 597 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:21,190 atmosphere and burned up a couple of days later 598 00:11:21,190 --> 00:11:21,200 599 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,110 the following day we went back to 600 00:11:23,110 --> 00:11:23,120 the following day we went back to 601 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:24,710 the following day we went back to retrieve the 602 00:11:24,710 --> 00:11:24,720 retrieve the 603 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:26,230 retrieve the spartan itself which you can see in the 604 00:11:26,230 --> 00:11:26,240 spartan itself which you can see in the 605 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:27,509 spartan itself which you can see in the lower part of the screen there is a 606 00:11:27,509 --> 00:11:27,519 lower part of the screen there is a 607 00:11:27,519 --> 00:11:29,910 lower part of the screen there is a small black speck and this is our 608 00:11:29,910 --> 00:11:29,920 small black speck and this is our 609 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:31,829 small black speck and this is our farewell view of the antenna as we're 610 00:11:31,829 --> 00:11:31,839 farewell view of the antenna as we're 611 00:11:31,839 --> 00:11:33,430 farewell view of the antenna as we're crossing over the midwest region of the 612 00:11:33,430 --> 00:11:33,440 crossing over the midwest region of the 613 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:41,590 crossing over the midwest region of the united states 614 00:11:41,590 --> 00:11:41,600 615 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,350 as andy said the next day we went back 616 00:11:43,350 --> 00:11:43,360 as andy said the next day we went back 617 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,030 as andy said the next day we went back to pick up spartan this is a view 618 00:11:45,030 --> 00:11:45,040 to pick up spartan this is a view 619 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:46,630 to pick up spartan this is a view looking out the overhead window you see 620 00:11:46,630 --> 00:11:46,640 looking out the overhead window you see 621 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:48,069 looking out the overhead window you see the spartan 622 00:11:48,069 --> 00:11:48,079 the spartan 623 00:11:48,079 --> 00:11:50,310 the spartan at a few hundred feet in the optical 624 00:11:50,310 --> 00:11:50,320 at a few hundred feet in the optical 625 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,389 at a few hundred feet in the optical site this is now view looking out a 626 00:11:52,389 --> 00:11:52,399 site this is now view looking out a 627 00:11:52,399 --> 00:11:54,069 site this is now view looking out a payload bay camera looking straight up 628 00:11:54,069 --> 00:11:54,079 payload bay camera looking straight up 629 00:11:54,079 --> 00:11:56,310 payload bay camera looking straight up you see the rms the robotic arm on the 630 00:11:56,310 --> 00:11:56,320 you see the rms the robotic arm on the 631 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:57,910 you see the rms the robotic arm on the right and the spartan on the left about 632 00:11:57,910 --> 00:11:57,920 right and the spartan on the left about 633 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,550 right and the spartan on the left about a hundred feet uh mark garneau uh very 634 00:12:00,550 --> 00:12:00,560 a hundred feet uh mark garneau uh very 635 00:12:00,560 --> 00:12:02,550 a hundred feet uh mark garneau uh very carefully getting ready to retrieve the 636 00:12:02,550 --> 00:12:02,560 carefully getting ready to retrieve the 637 00:12:02,560 --> 00:12:04,389 carefully getting ready to retrieve the spartan and the grapple it 638 00:12:04,389 --> 00:12:04,399 spartan and the grapple it 639 00:12:04,399 --> 00:12:06,389 spartan and the grapple it the grapple occurred at night time so it 640 00:12:06,389 --> 00:12:06,399 the grapple occurred at night time so it 641 00:12:06,399 --> 00:12:07,750 the grapple occurred at night time so it was a bit of a challenge for us to 642 00:12:07,750 --> 00:12:07,760 was a bit of a challenge for us to 643 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,389 was a bit of a challenge for us to adjust the cameras form 644 00:12:10,389 --> 00:12:10,399 adjust the cameras form 645 00:12:10,399 --> 00:12:12,629 adjust the cameras form fortunately dan did some adjusting on 646 00:12:12,629 --> 00:12:12,639 fortunately dan did some adjusting on 647 00:12:12,639 --> 00:12:14,870 fortunately dan did some adjusting on the camera parameters and and we got a 648 00:12:14,870 --> 00:12:14,880 the camera parameters and and we got a 649 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:16,470 the camera parameters and and we got a good view of the end effector and here's 650 00:12:16,470 --> 00:12:16,480 good view of the end effector and here's 651 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,509 good view of the end effector and here's a view from an aft camera you see the 652 00:12:19,509 --> 00:12:19,519 a view from an aft camera you see the 653 00:12:19,519 --> 00:12:21,910 a view from an aft camera you see the end effector of the arm moving over the 654 00:12:21,910 --> 00:12:21,920 end effector of the arm moving over the 655 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:23,990 end effector of the arm moving over the grapple fixture john did such a great 656 00:12:23,990 --> 00:12:24,000 grapple fixture john did such a great 657 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,389 grapple fixture john did such a great job of bringing a spartan in it was rock 658 00:12:26,389 --> 00:12:26,399 job of bringing a spartan in it was rock 659 00:12:26,399 --> 00:12:28,389 job of bringing a spartan in it was rock solid it was a very easy job for me just 660 00:12:28,389 --> 00:12:28,399 solid it was a very easy job for me just 661 00:12:28,399 --> 00:12:30,389 solid it was a very easy job for me just to move the end effector in 662 00:12:30,389 --> 00:12:30,399 to move the end effector in 663 00:12:30,399 --> 00:12:33,829 to move the end effector in over it and and to close the snares and 664 00:12:33,829 --> 00:12:33,839 over it and and to close the snares and 665 00:12:33,839 --> 00:12:36,230 over it and and to close the snares and then to do the rigidization you might 666 00:12:36,230 --> 00:12:36,240 then to do the rigidization you might 667 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,230 then to do the rigidization you might observe when the rigidization takes 668 00:12:38,230 --> 00:12:38,240 observe when the rigidization takes 669 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,470 observe when the rigidization takes place you're pulling in the spartan 670 00:12:40,470 --> 00:12:40,480 place you're pulling in the spartan 671 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,870 place you're pulling in the spartan and also the arm sort of goes limp and 672 00:12:42,870 --> 00:12:42,880 and also the arm sort of goes limp and 673 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:44,790 and also the arm sort of goes limp and it looks like everything's sort of 674 00:12:44,790 --> 00:12:44,800 it looks like everything's sort of 675 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,350 it looks like everything's sort of shaking around a little bit but 676 00:12:47,350 --> 00:12:47,360 shaking around a little bit but 677 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:48,150 shaking around a little bit but after 678 00:12:48,150 --> 00:12:48,160 after 679 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,030 after capturing it the spartan 680 00:12:51,030 --> 00:12:51,040 capturing it the spartan 681 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:52,790 capturing it the spartan folks wanted to have a look at it so 682 00:12:52,790 --> 00:12:52,800 folks wanted to have a look at it so 683 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,069 folks wanted to have a look at it so andy uh 684 00:12:54,069 --> 00:12:54,079 andy uh 685 00:12:54,079 --> 00:12:56,069 andy uh rotated it a little bit and we pointed 686 00:12:56,069 --> 00:12:56,079 rotated it a little bit and we pointed 687 00:12:56,079 --> 00:12:58,150 rotated it a little bit and we pointed it at cameras and then we had to put it 688 00:12:58,150 --> 00:12:58,160 it at cameras and then we had to put it 689 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,430 it at cameras and then we had to put it away obviously it had all the data that 690 00:13:01,430 --> 00:13:01,440 away obviously it had all the data that 691 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:02,710 away obviously it had all the data that the spartan 692 00:13:02,710 --> 00:13:02,720 the spartan 693 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,030 the spartan folks wanted to retrieve to analyze 694 00:13:05,030 --> 00:13:05,040 folks wanted to retrieve to analyze 695 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:06,870 folks wanted to retrieve to analyze after the flight so there you see the 696 00:13:06,870 --> 00:13:06,880 after the flight so there you see the 697 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:08,790 after the flight so there you see the spartan being put away it's a very busy 698 00:13:08,790 --> 00:13:08,800 spartan being put away it's a very busy 699 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,470 spartan being put away it's a very busy time retrieval you can see a lot of 700 00:13:10,470 --> 00:13:10,480 time retrieval you can see a lot of 701 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,389 time retrieval you can see a lot of people on the flight deck everybody 702 00:13:12,389 --> 00:13:12,399 people on the flight deck everybody 703 00:13:12,399 --> 00:13:15,030 people on the flight deck everybody doing part of the job to 704 00:13:15,030 --> 00:13:15,040 doing part of the job to 705 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:16,230 doing part of the job to make sure that 706 00:13:16,230 --> 00:13:16,240 make sure that 707 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,230 make sure that we get spartan back 708 00:13:18,230 --> 00:13:18,240 we get spartan back 709 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:19,990 we get spartan back and just in case you'd forgotten what 710 00:13:19,990 --> 00:13:20,000 and just in case you'd forgotten what 711 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:24,150 and just in case you'd forgotten what mission number we were 712 00:13:24,150 --> 00:13:24,160 713 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:26,230 very next day we deployed our second 714 00:13:26,230 --> 00:13:26,240 very next day we deployed our second 715 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:27,750 very next day we deployed our second satellite it's part of an experiment 716 00:13:27,750 --> 00:13:27,760 satellite it's part of an experiment 717 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,230 satellite it's part of an experiment called pam stew uh this small satellite 718 00:13:30,230 --> 00:13:30,240 called pam stew uh this small satellite 719 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:33,430 called pam stew uh this small satellite weighs about 115 pounds um it's 720 00:13:33,430 --> 00:13:33,440 weighs about 115 pounds um it's 721 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,030 weighs about 115 pounds um it's aerodynamically stabilized and 722 00:13:35,030 --> 00:13:35,040 aerodynamically stabilized and 723 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,269 aerodynamically stabilized and magnetically damped the whole idea is to 724 00:13:37,269 --> 00:13:37,279 magnetically damped the whole idea is to 725 00:13:37,279 --> 00:13:39,590 magnetically damped the whole idea is to produce a a satellite that perhaps 726 00:13:39,590 --> 00:13:39,600 produce a a satellite that perhaps 727 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,310 produce a a satellite that perhaps doesn't need active stabilization 728 00:13:42,310 --> 00:13:42,320 doesn't need active stabilization 729 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:43,750 doesn't need active stabilization what you're looking at right now is the 730 00:13:43,750 --> 00:13:43,760 what you're looking at right now is the 731 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:45,190 what you're looking at right now is the heavy end of the satellite and we 732 00:13:45,190 --> 00:13:45,200 heavy end of the satellite and we 733 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,829 heavy end of the satellite and we deployed it readily towards the earth 734 00:13:47,829 --> 00:13:47,839 deployed it readily towards the earth 735 00:13:47,839 --> 00:13:50,310 deployed it readily towards the earth and eventually that heavy end did orient 736 00:13:50,310 --> 00:13:50,320 and eventually that heavy end did orient 737 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,550 and eventually that heavy end did orient itself into the velocity vector 738 00:13:52,550 --> 00:13:52,560 itself into the velocity vector 739 00:13:52,560 --> 00:13:54,629 itself into the velocity vector again it's kind of tough to concentrate 740 00:13:54,629 --> 00:13:54,639 again it's kind of tough to concentrate 741 00:13:54,639 --> 00:13:56,150 again it's kind of tough to concentrate on the on the small satellite in the 742 00:13:56,150 --> 00:13:56,160 on the on the small satellite in the 743 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:57,670 on the on the small satellite in the center when you're passing over sites 744 00:13:57,670 --> 00:13:57,680 center when you're passing over sites 745 00:13:57,680 --> 00:14:00,150 center when you're passing over sites such as this north africa the coast of 746 00:14:00,150 --> 00:14:00,160 such as this north africa the coast of 747 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:01,750 such as this north africa the coast of portugal and spain and the straits of 748 00:14:01,750 --> 00:14:01,760 portugal and spain and the straits of 749 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:03,750 portugal and spain and the straits of gibraltar that you see at the top 750 00:14:03,750 --> 00:14:03,760 gibraltar that you see at the top 751 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:05,350 gibraltar that you see at the top of the picture and coming into the 752 00:14:05,350 --> 00:14:05,360 of the picture and coming into the 753 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,750 of the picture and coming into the mediterranean sea again at the top 754 00:14:07,750 --> 00:14:07,760 mediterranean sea again at the top 755 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,269 mediterranean sea again at the top of the image 756 00:14:09,269 --> 00:14:09,279 of the image 757 00:14:09,279 --> 00:14:10,150 of the image the 758 00:14:10,150 --> 00:14:10,160 the 759 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,629 the stew satellite had a series of laser 760 00:14:12,629 --> 00:14:12,639 stew satellite had a series of laser 761 00:14:12,639 --> 00:14:14,949 stew satellite had a series of laser reflectors that were designed to be 762 00:14:14,949 --> 00:14:14,959 reflectors that were designed to be 763 00:14:14,959 --> 00:14:16,949 reflectors that were designed to be tracked by a laser in the payload bay 764 00:14:16,949 --> 00:14:16,959 tracked by a laser in the payload bay 765 00:14:16,959 --> 00:14:18,069 tracked by a laser in the payload bay additionally 766 00:14:18,069 --> 00:14:18,079 additionally 767 00:14:18,079 --> 00:14:18,949 additionally i 768 00:14:18,949 --> 00:14:18,959 i 769 00:14:18,959 --> 00:14:20,949 i many of us used a handheld laser in the 770 00:14:20,949 --> 00:14:20,959 many of us used a handheld laser in the 771 00:14:20,959 --> 00:14:22,069 many of us used a handheld laser in the window 772 00:14:22,069 --> 00:14:22,079 window 773 00:14:22,079 --> 00:14:23,590 window and this was to give us range 774 00:14:23,590 --> 00:14:23,600 and this was to give us range 775 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,590 and this was to give us range information into one of our relative 776 00:14:25,590 --> 00:14:25,600 information into one of our relative 777 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,069 information into one of our relative plots that we had on board so we could 778 00:14:28,069 --> 00:14:28,079 plots that we had on board so we could 779 00:14:28,079 --> 00:14:30,790 plots that we had on board so we could maintain station keeping with the 780 00:14:30,790 --> 00:14:30,800 maintain station keeping with the 781 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,189 maintain station keeping with the stew satellite we station kept about 782 00:14:33,189 --> 00:14:33,199 stew satellite we station kept about 783 00:14:33,199 --> 00:14:35,430 stew satellite we station kept about 2000 feet behind the satellite which is 784 00:14:35,430 --> 00:14:35,440 2000 feet behind the satellite which is 785 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:36,550 2000 feet behind the satellite which is something that had never been done 786 00:14:36,550 --> 00:14:36,560 something that had never been done 787 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:38,550 something that had never been done before and we did that three times 788 00:14:38,550 --> 00:14:38,560 before and we did that three times 789 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:40,949 before and we did that three times kurt flew two of those rendezvous 790 00:14:40,949 -->

work quite well well in the zero-g 956 00:17:27,110 --> 00:17:27,120 work quite well well in the zero-g 957 00:17:27,120 --> 00:17:29,029 work quite well well in the zero-g environment and 958 00:17:29,029 --> 00:17:29,039 environment and 959 00:17:29,039 --> 00:17:33,669 environment and and there you go 960 00:17:33,669 --> 00:17:33,679 961 00:17:33,679 --> 00:17:35,669 i think andy and the flight design team 962 00:17:35,669 --> 00:17:35,679 i think andy and the flight design team 963 00:17:35,679 --> 00:17:38,230 i think andy and the flight design team got together to plan sts-77 so it would 964 00:17:38,230 --> 00:17:38,240 got together to plan sts-77 so it would 965 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:39,990 got together to plan sts-77 so it would pass very frequently over australia 966 00:17:39,990 --> 00:17:40,000 pass very frequently over australia 967 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:41,190 pass very frequently over australia shown here 968 00:17:41,190 --> 00:17:41,200 shown here 969 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,190 shown here uh this is a view of the northwest coast 970 00:17:43,190 --> 00:17:43,200 uh this is a view of the northwest coast 971 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,430 uh this is a view of the northwest coast uh sharks base specifically uh rather 972 00:17:45,430 --> 00:17:45,440 uh sharks base specifically uh rather 973 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:46,950 uh sharks base specifically uh rather spectacular just 974 00:17:46,950 --> 00:17:46,960 spectacular just 975 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:48,549 spectacular just when you look at the earth the blues and 976 00:17:48,549 --> 00:17:48,559 when you look at the earth the blues and 977 00:17:48,559 --> 00:17:50,950 when you look at the earth the blues and greens are just spectacular here you see 978 00:17:50,950 --> 00:17:50,960 greens are just spectacular here you see 979 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:52,549 greens are just spectacular here you see from our low light level camera looking 980 00:17:52,549 --> 00:17:52,559 from our low light level camera looking 981 00:17:52,559 --> 00:17:53,909 from our low light level camera looking down at the earth over florida 982 00:17:53,909 --> 00:17:53,919 down at the earth over florida 983 00:17:53,919 --> 00:17:55,830 down at the earth over florida specifically the flashes you see are 984 00:17:55,830 --> 00:17:55,840 specifically the flashes you see are 985 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:57,510 specifically the flashes you see are lightning flashes from a line of 986 00:17:57,510 --> 00:17:57,520 lightning flashes from a line of 987 00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,029 lightning flashes from a line of thunderstorms that were passing over the 988 00:17:59,029 --> 00:17:59,039 thunderstorms that were passing over the 989 00:17:59,039 --> 00:18:00,390 thunderstorms that were passing over the state at that time 990 00:18:00,390 --> 00:18:00,400 state at that time 991 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:02,710 state at that time and in the center on the left there that 992 00:18:02,710 --> 00:18:02,720 and in the center on the left there that 993 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:04,549 and in the center on the left there that those lights are cities and that one 994 00:18:04,549 --> 00:18:04,559 those lights are cities and that one 995 00:18:04,559 --> 00:18:06,150 those lights are cities and that one moving off the top of the screen now is 996 00:18:06,150 --> 00:18:06,160 moving off the top of the screen now is 997 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:07,430 moving off the top of the screen now is tallahassee 998 00:18:07,430 --> 00:18:07,440 tallahassee 999 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,270 tallahassee here you see a view a rather spectacular 1000 00:18:09,270 --> 00:18:09,280 here you see a view a rather spectacular 1001 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,909 here you see a view a rather spectacular one moving over mexico this is a view 1002 00:18:11,909 --> 00:18:11,919 one moving over mexico this is a view 1003 00:18:11,919 --> 00:18:14,630 one moving over mexico this is a view looking over the rockies westward toward 1004 00:18:14,630 --> 00:18:14,640 looking over the rockies westward toward 1005 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:16,789 looking over the rockies westward toward the gulf of california baja california 1006 00:18:16,789 --> 00:18:16,799 the gulf of california baja california 1007 00:18:16,799 --> 00:18:18,870 the gulf of california baja california and out in the distance the deep blue of 1008 00:18:18,870 --> 00:18:18,880 and out in the distance the deep blue of 1009 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,029 and out in the distance the deep blue of the pacific ocean 1010 00:18:21,029 --> 00:18:21,039 the pacific ocean 1011 00:18:21,039 --> 00:18:23,029 the pacific ocean unfortunately all great missions have to 1012 00:18:23,029 --> 00:18:23,039 unfortunately all great missions have to 1013 00:18:23,039 --> 00:18:24,950 unfortunately all great missions have to come to an end and that's signaled 1014 00:18:24,950 --> 00:18:24,960 come to an end and that's signaled 1015 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:26,549 come to an end and that's signaled rather dramatically by the closing of 1016 00:18:26,549 --> 00:18:26,559 rather dramatically by the closing of 1017 00:18:26,559 --> 00:18:28,549 rather dramatically by the closing of the payload bay doors which you see here 1018 00:18:28,549 --> 00:18:28,559 the payload bay doors which you see here 1019 00:18:28,559 --> 00:18:30,470 the payload bay doors which you see here the starboard door coming in to close 1020 00:18:30,470 --> 00:18:30,480 the starboard door coming in to close 1021 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:31,990 the starboard door coming in to close and you can see spartan not looking 1022 00:18:31,990 --> 00:18:32,000 and you can see spartan not looking 1023 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:33,830 and you can see spartan not looking quite so big in the payload bay now that 1024 00:18:33,830 --> 00:18:33,840 quite so big in the payload bay now that 1025 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,549 quite so big in the payload bay now that it's lost its inflatable antenna 1026 00:18:36,549 --> 00:18:36,559 it's lost its inflatable antenna 1027 00:18:36,559 --> 00:18:39,510 it's lost its inflatable antenna but we proceeded through the deorbit 1028 00:18:39,510 --> 00:18:39,520 but we proceeded through the deorbit 1029 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,669 but we proceeded through the deorbit prep phase as it's known this was 1030 00:18:41,669 --> 00:18:41,679 prep phase as it's known this was 1031 00:18:41,679 --> 00:18:44,150 prep phase as it's known this was choreographed by mario rather well and 1032 00:18:44,150 --> 00:18:44,160 choreographed by mario rather well and 1033 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,230 choreographed by mario rather well and he's taking care of people putting on 1034 00:18:46,230 --> 00:18:46,240 he's taking care of people putting on 1035 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,710 he's taking care of people putting on their their suits i won't describe the 1036 00:18:48,710 --> 00:18:48,720 their their suits i won't describe the 1037 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,029 their their suits i won't describe the feeling of sticking your head through 1038 00:18:51,029 --> 00:18:51,039 feeling of sticking your head through 1039 00:18:51,039 --> 00:18:52,950 feeling of sticking your head through you probably can imagine what it's like 1040 00:18:52,950 --> 00:18:52,960 you probably can imagine what it's like 1041 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:54,470 you probably can imagine what it's like but obviously we have to wear these 1042 00:18:54,470 --> 00:18:54,480 but obviously we have to wear these 1043 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,789 but obviously we have to wear these suits and here we have our pilot kurt 1044 00:18:56,789 --> 00:18:56,799 suits and here we have our pilot kurt 1045 00:18:56,799 --> 00:18:58,549 suits and here we have our pilot kurt brown and looking out the window to his 1046 00:18:58,549 --> 00:18:58,559 brown and looking out the window to his 1047 00:18:58,559 --> 00:19:00,950 brown and looking out the window to his right you can see the orange glow that's 1048 00:19:00,950 --> 00:19:00,960 right you can see the orange glow that's 1049 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:02,549 right you can see the orange glow that's beginning to increase and this is an 1050 00:19:02,549 --> 00:19:02,559 beginning to increase and this is an 1051 00:19:02,559 --> 00:19:04,710 beginning to increase and this is an overhead view through 1052 00:19:04,710 --> 00:19:04,720 overhead view through 1053 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,110 overhead view through an overhead window and you can see those 1054 00:19:07,110 --> 00:19:07,120 an overhead window and you can see those 1055 00:19:07,120 --> 00:19:08,789 an overhead window and you can see those those lights 1056 00:19:08,789 --> 00:19:08,799 those lights 1057 00:19:08,799 --> 00:19:10,710 those lights the light show that's going on sometimes 1058 00:19:10,710 --> 00:19:10,720 the light show that's going on sometimes 1059 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:12,710 the light show that's going on sometimes rather spectacular as 1060 00:19:12,710 --> 00:19:12,720 rather spectacular as 1061 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,029 rather spectacular as arcing takes place in the plasma above 1062 00:19:15,029 --> 00:19:15,039 arcing takes place in the plasma above 1063 00:19:15,039 --> 00:19:15,909 arcing takes place in the plasma above you 1064 00:19:15,909 --> 00:19:15,919 you 1065 00:19:15,919 --> 00:19:17,590 you we're now getting back into gravity as 1066 00:19:17,590 --> 00:19:17,600 we're now getting back into gravity as 1067 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,270 we're now getting back into gravity as you can see john is holding this cue 1068 00:19:19,270 --> 00:19:19,280 you can see john is holding this cue 1069 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:24,230 you can see john is holding this cue card up and it's about a half a g 1070 00:19:24,230 --> 00:19:24,240 1071 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,230 in this shot we've slowed down from our 1072 00:19:26,230 --> 00:19:26,240 in this shot we've slowed down from our 1073 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,110 in this shot we've slowed down from our orbital speed of 17 500 miles an hour to 1074 00:19:29,110 --> 00:19:29,120 orbital speed of 17 500 miles an hour to 1075 00:19:29,120 --> 00:19:31,110 orbital speed of 17 500 miles an hour to about 300 miles an hour 1076 00:19:31,110 --> 00:19:31,120 about 300 miles an hour 1077 00:19:31,120 --> 00:19:32,870 about 300 miles an hour and i'm hand flying the orbiter around 1078 00:19:32,870 --> 00:19:32,880 and i'm hand flying the orbiter around 1079 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:34,710 and i'm hand flying the orbiter around the heading alignment circle 1080 00:19:34,710 --> 00:19:34,720 the heading alignment circle 1081 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,350 the heading alignment circle at about four to five miles above the 1082 00:19:37,350 --> 00:19:37,360 at about four to five miles above the 1083 00:19:37,360 --> 00:19:39,270 at about four to five miles above the shuttle landing facility 1084 00:19:39,270 --> 00:19:39,280 shuttle landing facility 1085 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,430 shuttle landing facility it's always amazing to me that this 1086 00:19:41,430 --> 00:19:41,440 it's always amazing to me that this 1087 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,110 it's always amazing to me that this vehicle which has been our 1088 00:19:43,110 --> 00:19:43,120 vehicle which has been our 1089 00:19:43,120 --> 00:19:46,070 vehicle which has been our on-orbit uh laboratory and 1090 00:19:46,070 --> 00:19:46,080 on-orbit uh laboratory and 1091 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,470 on-orbit uh laboratory and and spaceship now is configured and 1092 00:19:48,470 --> 00:19:48,480 and spaceship now is configured and 1093 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,390 and spaceship now is configured and comes down and lands like an airplane 1094 00:19:50,390 --> 00:19:50,400 comes down and lands like an airplane 1095 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:52,070 comes down and lands like an airplane with of course one big exception there 1096 00:19:52,070 --> 00:19:52,080 with of course one big exception there 1097 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,070 with of course one big exception there are no engines running so we're a 1098 00:19:54,070 --> 00:19:54,080 are no engines running so we're a 1099 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:55,669 are no engines running so we're a high-speed glider 1100 00:19:55,669 --> 00:19:55,679 high-speed glider 1101 00:19:55,679 --> 00:19:58,070 high-speed glider but very very versatile 1102 00:19:58,070 --> 00:19:58,080 but very very versatile 1103 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,630 but very very versatile uh spacecraft and of course the only one 1104 00:20:00,630 --> 00:20:00,640 uh spacecraft and of course the only one 1105 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,470 uh spacecraft and of course the only one in the world that will that can come 1106 00:20:02,470 --> 00:20:02,480 in the world that will that can come 1107 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:11,190 in the world that will that can come back and land on a prepared runway 1108 00:20:11,190 --> 00:20:11,200 1109 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:12,710 touching down here a little over 200 1110 00:20:12,710 -->

was a splendid opportunity to see the country where i 1240 00:23:04,470 --> 00:23:04,480 opportunity to see the country where i 1241 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,430 opportunity to see the country where i grew up and this is a view of the 1242 00:23:07,430 --> 00:23:07,440 grew up and this is a view of the 1243 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,510 grew up and this is a view of the south coast of southern australia from 1244 00:23:09,510 --> 00:23:09,520 south coast of southern australia from 1245 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:11,510 south coast of southern australia from orbit and we had some spectacular places 1246 00:23:11,510 --> 00:23:11,520 orbit and we had some spectacular places 1247 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:13,029 orbit and we had some spectacular places over australia every morning the crew 1248 00:23:13,029 --> 00:23:13,039 over australia every morning the crew 1249 00:23:13,039 --> 00:23:15,029 over australia every morning the crew would alert me when we were coming by so 1250 00:23:15,029 --> 00:23:15,039 would alert me when we were coming by so 1251 00:23:15,039 --> 00:23:16,789 would alert me when we were coming by so i could get some pictures and this is 1252 00:23:16,789 --> 00:23:16,799 i could get some pictures and this is 1253 00:23:16,799 --> 00:23:18,710 i could get some pictures and this is the area of south australia where i grew 1254 00:23:18,710 --> 00:23:18,720 the area of south australia where i grew 1255 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:20,950 the area of south australia where i grew up 1256 00:23:20,950 --> 00:23:20,960 1257 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:22,149 flying over australia is interesting 1258 00:23:22,149 --> 00:23:22,159 flying over australia is interesting 1259 00:23:22,159 --> 00:23:23,430 flying over australia is interesting because if you ever visit australia and 1260 00:23:23,430 --> 00:23:23,440 because if you ever visit australia and 1261 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,590 because if you ever visit australia and go to the outback it seems very desolate 1262 00:23:25,590 --> 00:23:25,600 go to the outback it seems very desolate 1263 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:26,390 go to the outback it seems very desolate and 1264 00:23:26,390 --> 00:23:26,400 and 1265 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,230 and not much topography but when you see it 1266 00:23:28,230 --> 00:23:28,240 not much topography but when you see it 1267 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,470 not much topography but when you see it from orbit it's really very impressive 1268 00:23:30,470 --> 00:23:30,480 from orbit it's really very impressive 1269 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,190 from orbit it's really very impressive as the next slide will show 1270 00:23:33,190 --> 00:23:33,200 as the next slide will show 1271 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,029 as the next slide will show this is a view of an area in the 1272 00:23:35,029 --> 00:23:35,039 this is a view of an area in the 1273 00:23:35,039 --> 00:23:36,950 this is a view of an area in the northern territory of australia uh 1274 00:23:36,950 --> 00:23:36,960 northern territory of australia uh 1275 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:38,470 northern territory of australia uh called the mcdonnell rangers in that 1276 00:23:38,470 --> 00:23:38,480 called the mcdonnell rangers in that 1277 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,149 called the mcdonnell rangers in that wavy form that you see across the center 1278 00:23:40,149 --> 00:23:40,159 wavy form that you see across the center 1279 00:23:40,159 --> 00:23:41,909 wavy form that you see across the center part of the slide but what is unique 1280 00:23:41,909 --> 00:23:41,919 part of the slide but what is unique 1281 00:23:41,919 --> 00:23:43,270 part of the slide but what is unique here is if you look in the upper part of 1282 00:23:43,270 --> 00:23:43,280 here is if you look in the upper part of 1283 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:45,350 here is if you look in the upper part of the slide you can see a feature which is 1284 00:23:45,350 --> 00:23:45,360 the slide you can see a feature which is 1285 00:23:45,360 --> 00:23:46,950 the slide you can see a feature which is known as goss's bluff but it's actually 1286 00:23:46,950 --> 00:23:46,960 known as goss's bluff but it's actually 1287 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,510 known as goss's bluff but it's actually an impact crater from an ancient uh 1288 00:23:49,510 --> 00:23:49,520 an impact crater from an ancient uh 1289 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,390 an impact crater from an ancient uh meteor impact um this crate is thought 1290 00:23:52,390 --> 00:23:52,400 meteor impact um this crate is thought 1291 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,830 meteor impact um this crate is thought to be about 140 million years old uh and 1292 00:23:55,830 --> 00:23:55,840 to be about 140 million years old uh and 1293 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:57,830 to be about 140 million years old uh and it's about 22 kilometers in diameter so 1294 00:23:57,830 --> 00:23:57,840 it's about 22 kilometers in diameter so 1295 00:23:57,840 --> 00:23:59,669 it's about 22 kilometers in diameter so it's a very large feature 1296 00:23:59,669 --> 00:23:59,679 it's a very large feature 1297 00:23:59,679 --> 00:24:00,789 it's a very large feature um 1298 00:24:00,789 --> 00:24:00,799 um 1299 00:24:00,799 --> 00:24:02,230 um in the countryside but as you can see 1300 00:24:02,230 --> 00:24:02,240 in the countryside but as you can see 1301 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,390 in the countryside but as you can see there is a lot of texture and coloring 1302 00:24:04,390 --> 00:24:04,400 there is a lot of texture and coloring 1303 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:06,710 there is a lot of texture and coloring in the outback of australia 1304 00:24:06,710 --> 00:24:06,720 in the outback of australia 1305 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,549 in the outback of australia the next slide shows the countryside we 1306 00:24:08,549 --> 00:24:08,559 the next slide shows the countryside we 1307 00:24:08,559 --> 00:24:10,870 the next slide shows the countryside we saw following australia which was new 1308 00:24:10,870 --> 00:24:10,880 saw following australia which was new 1309 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,110 saw following australia which was new zealand and one of the amazing things is 1310 00:24:13,110 --> 00:24:13,120 zealand and one of the amazing things is 1311 00:24:13,120 --> 00:24:14,870 zealand and one of the amazing things is you go from this desolate region of 1312 00:24:14,870 --> 00:24:14,880 you go from this desolate region of 1313 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,029 you go from this desolate region of australia to this lush region of new 1314 00:24:17,029 --> 00:24:17,039 australia to this lush region of new 1315 00:24:17,039 --> 00:24:20,390 australia to this lush region of new zealand and you're struck by the amazing 1316 00:24:20,390 --> 00:24:20,400 zealand and you're struck by the amazing 1317 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,950 zealand and you're struck by the amazing uh geography of new zealand with its uh 1318 00:24:22,950 --> 00:24:22,960 uh geography of new zealand with its uh 1319 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,190 uh geography of new zealand with its uh jagged mountains and snow-covered peaks 1320

--> 00:24:27,600 and very rough terrain and this is a 1323 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,750 and very rough terrain and this is a volcano in new zealand 1324 00:24:29,750 --> 00:24:29,760 volcano in new zealand 1325 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,630 volcano in new zealand called mount rajpiu and this actually is 1326 00:24:32,630 --> 00:24:32,640 called mount rajpiu and this actually is 1327 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,269 called mount rajpiu and this actually is an active volcano it last erupted 1328 00:24:35,269 --> 00:24:35,279 an active volcano it last erupted 1329 00:24:35,279 --> 00:24:36,950 an active volcano it last erupted sometime last year with some loss of 1330 00:24:36,950 --> 00:24:36,960 sometime last year with some loss of 1331 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:38,789 sometime last year with some loss of life actually 1332 00:24:38,789 --> 00:24:38,799 life actually 1333 00:24:38,799 --> 00:24:40,549 life actually and it's still 1334 00:24:40,549 --> 00:24:40,559 and it's still 1335 00:24:40,559 --> 00:24:43,430 and it's still issuing steam and mud as an active 1336 00:24:43,430 --> 00:24:43,440 issuing steam and mud as an active 1337 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,110 issuing steam and mud as an active volcanic site 1338 00:24:45,110 --> 00:24:45,120 volcanic site 1339 00:24:45,120 --> 00:24:46,470 volcanic site it was very impressive to see these 1340 00:24:46,470 --> 00:24:46,480 it was very impressive to see these 1341 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:51,510 it was very impressive to see these kinds of volcanoes from orbit 1342 00:24:51,510 --> 00:24:51,520 1343 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,590 as andy mentioned the the volcanoes do 1344 00:24:53,590 --> 00:24:53,600 as andy mentioned the the volcanoes do 1345 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,750 as andy mentioned the the volcanoes do catch your eye and here is one shown 1346 00:24:55,750 --> 00:24:55,760 catch your eye and here is one shown 1347 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:59,350 catch your eye and here is one shown over uh the high altiplano of the of the 1348 00:24:59,350 --> 00:24:59,360 over uh the high altiplano of the of the 1349 00:24:59,360 --> 00:25:01,269 over uh the high altiplano of the of the northern part of chile and in south 1350 00:25:01,269 --> 00:25:01,279 northern part of chile and in south 1351 00:25:01,279 --> 00:25:03,990 northern part of chile and in south america and the center uh central part 1352 00:25:03,990 --> 00:25:04,000 america and the center uh central part 1353 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:05,830 america and the center uh central part of the screen toward the top there what 1354 00:25:05,830 --> 00:25:05,840 of the screen toward the top there what 1355 00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:07,510 of the screen toward the top there what caught our eye was the steam plume 1356 00:25:07,510 --> 00:25:07,520 caught our eye was the steam plume 1357 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,149 caught our eye was the steam plume emanating from the volcano you see here 1358 00:25:10,149 --> 00:25:10,159 emanating from the volcano you see here 1359 00:25:10,159 --> 00:25:12,149 emanating from the volcano you see here and interestingly enough this volcano 1360 00:25:12,149 --> 00:25:12,159 and interestingly enough this volcano 1361 00:25:12,159 --> 00:25:14,549 and interestingly enough this volcano was photographed by the crew of sts-55 1362 00:25:14,549 --> 00:25:14,559 was photographed by the crew of sts-55 1363 00:25:14,559 --> 00:25:16,789 was photographed by the crew of sts-55 back in april of 1993 1364 00:25:16,789 --> 00:25:16,799 back in april of 1993 1365 00:25:16,799 --> 00:25:19,110 back in april of 1993 and at that time the volcano had erupted 1366 00:25:19,110 --> 00:25:19,120 and at that time the volcano had erupted 1367 00:25:19,120 --> 00:25:23,590 and at that time the volcano had erupted and put out a large ash cloud as well as 1368 00:25:23,590 --> 00:25:23,600 and put out a large ash cloud as well as 1369 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,750 and put out a large ash cloud as well as a lava flow and then the lava flow flows 1370 00:25:25,750 --> 00:25:25,760 a lava flow and then the lava flow flows 1371 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:28,310 a lava flow and then the lava flow flows north here toward the top of the picture 1372 00:25:28,310 --> 00:25:28,320 north here toward the top of the picture 1373 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:29,750 north here toward the top of the picture and then it turns left and what's 1374 00:25:29,750 --> 00:25:29,760 and then it turns left and what's 1375 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:31,510 and then it turns left and what's interesting in in just the three years 1376 00:25:31,510 --> 00:25:31,520 interesting in in just the three years 1377 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,789 interesting in in just the three years time since the eruption unlike the 1378 00:25:34,789 --> 00:25:34,799 time since the eruption unlike the 1379 00:25:34,799 --> 00:25:37,669 time since the eruption unlike the ancient uh crater that andy just showed 1380 00:25:37,669 --> 00:25:37,679 ancient uh crater that andy just showed 1381 00:25:37,679 --> 00:25:39,830 ancient uh crater that andy just showed you in in australia that that has not 1382 00:25:39,830 --> 00:25:39,840 you in in australia that that has not 1383 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:41,510 you in in australia that that has not changed its character very much because 1384 00:25:41,510 --> 00:25:41,520 changed its character very much because 1385 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:43,430 changed its character very much because of the very dry climate there 1386 00:25:43,430 --> 00:25:43,440 of the very dry climate there 1387 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,070 of the very dry climate there this climate being very wet the the gray 1388 00:25:46,070 --> 00:25:46,080 this climate being very wet the the gray 1389 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,390 this climate being very wet the the gray feature of the lava flow is uh all but 1390 00:25:48,390 --> 00:25:48,400 feature of the lava flow is uh all but 1391 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:50,789 feature of the lava flow is uh all but disappeared and now it's uh covered over 1392 00:25:50,789 --> 00:25:50,799 disappeared and now it's uh covered over 1393 00:25:50,799 --> 00:25:53,350 disappeared and now it's uh covered over and appears to take on the hue of the 1394 00:25:53,350 --> 00:25:53,360 and appears to take on the hue of the 1395 00:25:53,360 --> 00:25:55,350 and appears to take on the hue of the surrounding countryside as 1396 00:25:55,350 --> 00:25:55,360 surrounding countryside as 1397 00:25:55,360 --> 00:26:00,950 surrounding countryside as as erosion takes place 1398 00:26:00,950 --> 00:26:00,960 1399 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:03,350 and uh we had a quick shot of this view 1400 00:26:03,350 --> 00:26:03,360 and uh we had a quick shot of this view 1401 00:26:03,360 --> 00:26:05,590 and uh we had a quick shot of this view in the film this is a view looking 1402 00:26:05,590 --> 00:26:05,600 in the film this is a view looking 1403 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:07,029 in the film this is a view looking westward across the western 1404 00:26:07,029 --> 00:26:07,039 westward across the western 1405

00:26:39,269 picture toward the top rather spectacular view and and sometimes we 1434 00:26:39,269 --> 00:26:39,279 spectacular view and and sometimes we 1435 00:26:39,279 --> 00:26:41,269 spectacular view and and sometimes we like to look in great detail as you've 1436 00:26:41,269 --> 00:26:41,279 like to look in great detail as you've 1437 00:26:41,279 --> 00:26:42,950 like to look in great detail as you've seen in the last couple of photographs 1438 00:26:42,950 --> 00:26:42,960 seen in the last couple of photographs 1439 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,110 seen in the last couple of photographs and and sometimes just the panoramas 1440 00:26:45,110 --> 00:26:45,120 and and sometimes just the panoramas 1441 00:26:45,120 --> 00:26:48,870 and and sometimes just the panoramas take your breath away 1442 00:26:48,870 --> 00:26:48,880 1443 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:50,789 and hear another panorama although 1444 00:26:50,789 --> 00:26:50,799 and hear another panorama although 1445 00:26:50,799 --> 00:26:52,549 and hear another panorama although there's a great bit of detail in here 1446 00:26:52,549 --> 00:26:52,559 there's a great bit of detail in here 1447 00:26:52,559 --> 00:26:55,350 there's a great bit of detail in here this is of the sinai and israel uh you 1448 00:26:55,350 --> 00:26:55,360 this is of the sinai and israel uh you 1449 00:26:55,360 --> 00:26:58,310 this is of the sinai and israel uh you can see uh the the dead sea rift valley 1450 00:26:58,310 --> 00:26:58,320 can see uh the the dead sea rift valley 1451 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,549 can see uh the the dead sea rift valley here the dead sea being uh in the 1452 00:27:00,549 --> 00:27:00,559 here the dead sea being uh in the 1453 00:27:00,559 --> 00:27:02,630 here the dead sea being uh in the northern part of 1454 00:27:02,630 --> 00:27:02,640 northern part of 1455 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:04,710 northern part of the photograph the dead sea had opened 1456 00:27:04,710 --> 00:27:04,720 the photograph the dead sea had opened 1457 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:08,070 the photograph the dead sea had opened had a is about 1300 feet below sea level 1458 00:27:08,070 --> 00:27:08,080 had a is about 1300 feet below sea level 1459 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:10,149 had a is about 1300 feet below sea level and it had there was a passage that had 1460 00:27:10,149 --> 00:27:10,159 and it had there was a passage that had 1461 00:27:10,159 --> 00:27:11,909 and it had there was a passage that had opened to the sea many millions of years 1462 00:27:11,909 --> 00:27:11,919 opened to the sea many millions of years 1463 00:27:11,919 --> 00:27:13,909 opened to the sea many millions of years ago that passage is closed up and the 1464 00:27:13,909 --> 00:27:13,919 ago that passage is closed up and the 1465 00:27:13,919 --> 00:27:16,470 ago that passage is closed up and the water is now uh remaining there and that 1466 00:27:16,470 --> 00:27:16,480 water is now uh remaining there and that 1467 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:18,710 water is now uh remaining there and that is the cause for the high uh saline 1468 00:27:18,710 --> 00:27:18,720 is the cause for the high uh saline 1469 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,630 is the cause for the high uh saline content as much of it has eroded and is 1470 00:27:20,630 --> 00:27:20,640 content as much of it has eroded and is 1471 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:23,110 content as much of it has eroded and is now fed very uh uh 1472 00:27:23,110 --> 00:27:23,120 now fed very uh uh 1473 00:27:23,120 --> 00:27:25,510 now fed very uh uh meagerly by uh streams and underground 1474 00:27:25,510 --> 00:27:25,520 meagerly by uh streams and underground 1475 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,510 meagerly by uh streams and underground springs the rift valley extends 1476 00:27:27,510 --> 00:27:27,520 springs the rift valley extends 1477 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,830 springs the rift valley extends southward to the gulf of akaba here and 1478 00:27:29,830 --> 00:27:29,840 southward to the gulf of akaba here and 1479 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:31,510 southward to the gulf of akaba here and interestingly enough if you can make it 1480 00:27:31,510 --> 00:27:31,520 interestingly enough if you can make it 1481 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,029 interestingly enough if you can make it out 1482 00:27:33,029 --> 00:27:33,039 out 1483 00:27:33,039 --> 00:27:34,549 out to the left center of the picture 1484 00:27:34,549 --> 00:27:34,559 to the left center of the picture 1485 00:27:34,559 --> 00:27:36,310 to the left center of the picture there's a diagonal line very faintly 1486 00:27:36,310 --> 00:27:36,320 there's a diagonal line very faintly 1487 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,310 there's a diagonal line very faintly showing across here which is actually 1488 00:27:38,310 --> 00:27:38,320 showing across here which is actually 1489 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,870 showing across here which is actually the southern border of israel and even 1490 00:27:40,870 --> 00:27:40,880 the southern border of israel and even 1491 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:42,870 the southern border of israel and even though this is a political boundary we 1492 00:27:42,870 --> 00:27:42,880 though this is a political boundary we 1493 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,269 though this is a political boundary we can see it and and the differentiation 1494 00:27:45,269 --> 00:27:45,279 can see it and and the differentiation 1495 00:27:45,279 --> 00:27:47,029 can see it and and the differentiation there is between the land use patterns 1496 00:27:47,029 --> 00:27:47,039 there is between the land use patterns 1497 00:27:47,039 --> 00:27:49,110 there is between the land use patterns the irrigation that goes on to the north 1498 00:27:49,110 --> 00:27:49,120 the irrigation that goes on to the north 1499 00:27:49,120 --> 00:27:51,269 the irrigation that goes on to the north of that border and and the lack of 1500 00:27:51,269 --> 00:27:51,279 of that border and and the lack of 1501 00:27:51,279 --> 00:27:53,110 of that border and and the lack of irrigation or the natural desert state 1502 00:27:53,110 --> 00:27:53,120 irrigation or the natural desert state 1503 00:27:53,120 --> 00:28:00,470 irrigation or the natural desert state to the south of that border 1504 00:28:00,470 --> 00:28:00,480 1505 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:01,590 and 1506 00:28:01,590 --> 00:28:01,600 and 1507 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,149 and very close to the last slide that mario 1508 00:28:04,149 --> 00:28:04,159 very close to the last slide that mario 1509 00:28:04,159 --> 00:28:06,470 very close to the last slide that mario just described is another one that uh 1510 00:28:06,470 --> 00:28:06,480 just described is another one that uh 1511 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,870 just described is another one that uh shows a lot of egypt uh it doesn't 1512 00:28:08,870 --> 00:28:08,880 shows a lot of egypt uh it doesn't 1513 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:10,950 shows a lot of egypt uh it doesn't matter what inclination you're on you're 1514 00:28:10,950 --> 00:28:10,960 matter what inclination you're on you're 1515 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:12,630 matter what inclination you're on you're generally always going to go over this 1516 00:28:12,630 --> 00:28:12,640 generally always going to go over this 1517 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:14,070 generally always going to go over this part of the world and it's always going 1518 00:28:14,070 --> 00:28:14,080 part of the world and it's always going 1519 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:16,789 part of the world and it's always going to have clear weather so you get a good 1520 00:28:16,789 --> 00:28:16,799 to have clear weather so you get a good 1521 00:28:16,799 --> 00:28:19,350 to have clear weather so you get a good view of it and it's particularly 1522 00:28:19,350 --> 00:28:19,360 view of it and it's particularly 1523 00:28:19,360 --> 00:28:22,630 view of it and it's particularly attractive because of the the history of 1524 00:28:22,630 --> 00:28:22,640 attractive because of the the history of 1525 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,470 attractive because of the the history of the location and also because the 1526 00:28:24,470 --> 00:28:24,480 the location and also because the 1527 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:28,470 the location and also because the contrast between the very green triangle 1528 00:28:28,470 --> 00:28:28,480 contrast between the very green triangle 1529 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:30,070 contrast between the very green triangle which is at the top center which 1530 00:28:30,070 --> 00:28:30,080 which is at the top center which 1531 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:31,990 which is at the top center which represents the nile delta and you can 1532 00:28:31,990 --> 00:28:32,000 represents the nile delta and you can 1533 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,549 represents the nile delta and you can see it threading down towards the bottom 1534 00:28:34,549 --> 00:28:34,559 see it threading down towards the bottom 1535 00:28:34,559 --> 00:28:37,430 see it threading down towards the bottom left more like a ribbon as it works its 1536 00:28:37,430 --> 00:28:37,440 left more like a ribbon as it works its 1537 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,149 left more like a ribbon as it works its way into the very dry part of northern 1538 00:28:40,149 --> 00:28:40,159 way into the very dry part of northern 1539 00:28:40,159 --> 00:28:41,350 way into the very dry part of northern africa 1540 00:28:41,350 --> 00:28:41,360 africa 1541 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:44,070 africa at the apex of the green triangle just a 1542

a lot it's we 1773 00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:58,230 we fly out to el paso a lot it's we routinely stop there when we fly out to 1774 00:32:58,230 --> 00:32:58,240 routinely stop there when we fly out to 1775 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,070 routinely stop there when we fly out to the west coast the pilots fly there all 1776 00:33:00,070 --> 00:33:00,080 the west coast the pilots fly there all 1777 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,310 the west coast the pilots fly there all the time because they use it kind of as 1778 00:33:02,310 --> 00:33:02,320 the time because they use it kind of as 1779 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:03,909 the time because they use it kind of as a fueling stop where they pick up the 1780 00:33:03,909 --> 00:33:03,919 a fueling stop where they pick up the 1781 00:33:03,919 --> 00:33:06,470 a fueling stop where they pick up the sta and then they fly to the north north 1782 00:33:06,470 --> 00:33:06,480 sta and then they fly to the north north 1783 00:33:06,480 -->

and and do a lot of their 1791 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:15,750 in white sands and and do a lot of their training runs in the sta 1792 00:33:15,750 --> 00:33:15,760 training runs in the sta 1793 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:19,669 training runs in the sta there next slide 1794 00:33:19,669 --> 00:33:19,679 1795 00:33:19,679 --> 00:33:21,269 this is a picture a little bit closer to 1796 00:33:21,269 --> 00:33:21,279 this is a picture a little bit closer to 1797 00:33:21,279 --> 00:33:22,789 this is a picture a little bit closer to home 1798 00:33:22,789 --> 00:33:22,799 home 1799 00:33:22,799 --> 00:33:24,549 home towards the bottom you see the coast 1800 00:33:24,549 --> 00:33:24,559 towards the bottom you see the coast 1801 00:33:24,559 --> 00:33:27,669 towards the bottom you see the coast this is uh galveston island right in the 1802 00:33:27,669 --> 00:33:27,679 this is uh galveston island right in the 1803 00:33:27,679 --> 00:33:28,549 this is uh galveston island right in the middle 1804 00:33:28,549 --> 00:33:28,559 middle 1805 00:33:28,559 --> 00:33:30,230 middle i believe this was about in the middle 1806 00:33:30,230 --> 00:33:30,240 i believe this was about in the middle 1807 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:31,669 i believe this was about in the middle of the flight you see some of the puffy 1808 00:33:31,669 --> 00:33:31,679 of the flight you see some of the puffy 1809 00:33:31,679 --> 00:33:34,230 of the flight you see some of the puffy clouds which and i i remember this day i 1810 00:33:34,230 --> 00:33:34,240 clouds which and i i remember this day i 1811 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,110 clouds which and i i remember this day i called down to mcc and i said looks like 1812 00:33:37,110 --> 00:33:37,120 called down to mcc and i said looks like 1813 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:38,789 called down to mcc and i said looks like a clear day but the only word that came 1814 00:33:38,789 --> 00:33:38,799 a clear day but the only word that came 1815 00:33:38,799 --> 00:33:40,549 a clear day but the only word that came back would says 1816 00:33:40,549 --> 00:33:40,559 back would says 1817 00:33:40,559 --> 00:33:43,029 back would says bill mcarthur said yeah but it's hot 1818 00:33:43,029 --> 00:33:43,039 bill mcarthur said yeah but it's hot 1819 00:33:43,039 --> 00:33:44,389 bill mcarthur said yeah but it's hot so i think that's when you all were 1820 00:33:44,389 --> 00:33:44,399 so i think that's when you all were 1821 00:33:44,399 --> 00:33:46,789 so i think that's when you all were having some 90-plus degree weather at 1822 00:33:46,789 --> 00:33:46,799 having some 90-plus degree weather at 1823 00:33:46,799 --> 00:33:49,430 having some 90-plus degree weather at that time while we're in orbit you can 1824 00:33:49,430 --> 00:33:49,440 that time while we're in orbit you can 1825 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:53,750 that time while we're in orbit you can see this is a dyke that extends out 1826 00:33:53,750 --> 00:33:53,760 see this is a dyke that extends out 1827 00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:55,669 see this is a dyke that extends out and also here's the 1828 00:33:55,669 --> 00:33:55,679 and also here's the 1829 00:33:55,679 --> 00:33:57,750 and also here's the the causeway that goes over to galveston 1830 00:33:57,750 --> 00:33:57,760 the causeway that goes over to galveston 1831 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,149 the causeway that goes over to galveston island itself just in the lower 1832 00:34:00,149 --> 00:34:00,159 island itself just in the lower 1833 00:34:00,159 --> 00:34:06,470 island itself just in the lower center part of the picture next slide 1834 00:34:06,470 --> 00:34:06,480 1835 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:07,990 this slide is a 1836 00:34:07,990 --> 00:34:08,000 this slide is a 1837 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:09,829 this slide is a an example one of the techniques that we 1838 00:34:09,829 --> 00:34:09,839 an example one of the techniques that we 1839 00:34:09,839 --> 00:34:13,109 an example one of the techniques that we use in earth ops observations 1840 00:34:13,109 --> 00:34:13,119 use in earth ops observations 1841 00:34:13,119 --> 00:34:14,710 use in earth ops observations we call it sun glint we use the 1842 00:34:14,710 --> 00:34:14,720 we call it sun glint we use the 1843 00:34:14,720 --> 00:34:16,790 we call it sun glint we use the reflection of the sun off the surface of 1844 00:34:16,790 --> 00:34:16,800 reflection of the sun off the surface of 1845 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:19,430 reflection of the sun off the surface of water bodies on the earth to gather more 1846 00:34:19,430 --> 00:34:19,440 water bodies on the earth to gather more 1847 00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:21,829 water bodies on the earth to gather more detail with that glint we're able to see 1848 00:34:21,829 --> 00:34:21,839 detail with that glint we're able to see 1849 00:34:21,839 --> 00:34:23,270 detail with that glint we're able to see the activities 1850 00:34:23,270 --> 00:34:23,280 the activities 1851 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,750 the activities and the condition of the surface of the 1852 00:34:25,750 --> 00:34:25,760 and the condition of the surface of the 1853 00:34:25,760 -->
