you're on endeavour now you might ask why do we 378 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:20,690 endeavour now you might ask why do we 379 00:16:20,690 --> 00:16:23,950 endeavour now you might ask why do we have gypsy moth eggs on Endeavour it 380 00:16:23,950 --> 00:16:23,960 have gypsy moth eggs on Endeavour it 381 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,290 have gypsy moth eggs on Endeavour it turns out that the gypsy moth is very 382 00:16:26,290 --> 00:16:26,300 turns out that the gypsy moth is very 383 00:16:26,300 --> 00:16:28,240 turns out that the gypsy moth is very destructive a very destructive pest in 384 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:28,250 destructive a very destructive pest in 385 00:16:28,250 --> 00:16:29,500 destructive a very destructive pest in the United States especially to 386 00:16:29,500 --> 00:16:29,510 the United States especially to 387 00:16:29,510 --> 00:16:32,470 the United States especially to Northeast hardware hardwood forests so 388 00:16:32,470 --> 00:16:32,480 Northeast hardware hardwood forests so 389 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:33,610 Northeast hardware hardwood forests so the United States Department of 390 00:16:33,610 --> 00:16:33,620 the United States Department of 391 00:16:33,620 --> 00:16:35,680 the United States Department of Agriculture has a goal of controlling 392 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:35,690 Agriculture has a goal of controlling 393 00:16:35,690 --> 00:16:39,040 Agriculture has a goal of controlling the population of gypsy moths in that 394 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:39,050 the population of gypsy moths in that 395 00:16:39,050 --> 00:16:41,230 the population of gypsy moths in that area now the way they control gypsy 396 00:16:41,230 --> 00:16:41,240 area now the way they control gypsy 397 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:42,790 area now the way they control gypsy moths population is by introducing 398 00:16:42,790 --> 00:16:42,800 moths population is by introducing 399 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:46,210 moths population is by introducing sterile gypsy moths into the wild they 400 00:16:46,210 --> 00:16:46,220 sterile gypsy moths into the wild they 401 00:16:46,220 --> 00:16:48,310 sterile gypsy moths into the wild they tried to produce sterile gypsy moths on 402 00:16:48,310 --> 00:16:48,320 tried to produce sterile gypsy moths on 403 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:49,360 tried to produce sterile gypsy moths on the ground but it's a very difficult 404 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:49,370 the ground but it's a very difficult 405 00:16:49,370 --> 00:16:53,920 the ground but it's a very difficult process and also very time-consuming we 406 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:53,930 process and also very time-consuming we 407 00:16:53,930 --> 00:16:55,990 process and also very time-consuming we also don't know exactly the mechanism 408 00:16:55,990 --> 00:16:56,000 also don't know exactly the mechanism 409 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:57,790 also don't know exactly the mechanism within the gypsy moths that makes them 410 00:16:57,790 --> 00:16:57,800 within the gypsy moths that makes them 411 00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,380 within the gypsy moths that makes them stir but we do have a ground process 412 00:16:59,380 --> 00:16:59,390 stir but we do have a ground process 413 00:16:59,390 --> 00:17:02,320 stir but we do have a ground process that works well by by accident we have 414 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:02,330 that works well by by accident we have 415 00:17:02,330 --> 00:17:04,180 that works well by by accident we have actually found out that gypsy moth eggs 416 00:17:04,180 --> 00:17:04,190 actually found out that gypsy moth eggs 417 00:17:04,190 --> 00:17:05,760 actually found out that gypsy moth eggs if they are carried in spaceflight 418 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:05,770 if they are carried in spaceflight 419 00:17:05,770 --> 00:17:09,790 if they are carried in spaceflight produced Daryll gypsy moths we don't 420 00:17:09,790 --> 00:17:09,800 produced Daryll gypsy moths we don't 421 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:11,680 produced Daryll gypsy moths we don't quite understand the mechanism and 422 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:11,690 quite understand the mechanism and 423 00:17:11,690 --> 00:17:14,920 quite understand the mechanism and that's the goal of this experiment if we 424 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:14,930 that's the goal of this experiment if we 425 00:17:14,930 --> 00:17:17,050 that's the goal of this experiment if we take these 5000 gypsy moth eggs with us 426 00:17:17,050 --> 00:17:17,060 take these 5000 gypsy moth eggs with us 427 00:17:17,060 --> 00:17:19,240 take these 5000 gypsy moth eggs with us and give them back to the USDA after the 428 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:19,250 and give them back to the USDA after the 429 00:17:19,250 --> 00:17:21,340 and give them back to the USDA after the flight they should produce still gypsy 430 00:17:21,340 --> 00:17:21,350 flight they should produce still gypsy 431 00:17:21,350 --> 00:17:23,590 flight they should produce still gypsy moths and the USDA will be able to look 432 00:17:23,590 --> 00:17:23,600 moths and the USDA will be able to look 433 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,270 moths and the USDA will be able to look at those gypsy moths and understand the 434 00:17:25,270 --> 00:17:25,280 at those gypsy moths and understand the 435 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,580 at those gypsy moths and understand the exact mechanism that creates their 436 00:17:27,580 --> 00:17:27,590 exact mechanism that creates their 437 00:17:27,590 --> 00:17:30,700 exact mechanism that creates their sterility now they wouldn't want us to 438 00:17:30,700 --> 00:17:30,710 sterility now they wouldn't want us to 439 00:17:30,710 --> 00:17:33,460 sterility now they wouldn't want us to grow sterile gypsy moths in space for 440 00:17:33,460 --> 00:17:33,470 grow sterile gypsy moths in space for 441 00:17:33,470 --> 00:17:34,660 grow sterile gypsy moths in space for introduction to the wild at mass 442 00:17:34,660 --> 00:17:34,670 introduction to the wild at mass 443 00:17:34,670 --> 00:17:36,160 introduction to the wild at mass populations but they would like to 444 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:36,170 populations but they would like to 445 00:17:36,170 --> 00:17:37,690 populations but they would like to understand the mechanisms that create 446 00:17:37,690 --> 00:17:37,700 understand the mechanisms that create 447 00:17:37,700 --> 00:17:39,700 understand the mechanisms that create sterility and hopefully reproduce it on 448 00:17:39,700 --> 00:17:39,710 sterility and hopefully reproduce it on 449 00:17:39,710 --> 00:17:42,040 sterility and hopefully reproduce it on the ground so there's one example how 450 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:42,050 the ground so there's one example how 451 00:17:42,050 --> 00:17:43,810 the ground so there's one example how going away from the Earth's surface 452 00:17:43,810 --> 00:17:43,820 going away from the Earth's surface 453 00:17:43,820 --> 00:17:46,000 going away from the Earth's surface actually can be used to solve a problem 454 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:46,010 actually can be used to solve a problem 455 00:17:46,010 --> 00:17:48,070 actually can be used to solve a problem we have on earth so that's the first of 456 00:17:48,070 --> 00:17:48,080 we have on earth so that's the first of 457 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,470 we have on earth so that's the first of the two experiments 458 00:17:50,470 --> 00:17:50,480 the two experiments 459 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,060 the two experiments the second experiment I'd like to 460 00:17:52,060 --> 00:17:52,070 the second experiment I'd like to 461 00:17:52,070 --> 00:17:53,710 the second experiment I'd like to discuss discuss with you today is called 462 00:17:53,710 --> 00:17:53,720 discuss discuss with you today is called 463 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:55,359 discuss discuss with you today is called the commercial protein crystal growth 464 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:55,369 the commercial protein crystal growth 465 00:17:55,369 --> 00:17:57,909 the commercial protein crystal growth experiment or CPC G and it's sponsored 466 00:17:57,909 --> 00:17:57,919 experiment or CPC G and it's sponsored 467 00:17:57,919 --> 00:18:00,820 experiment or CPC G and it's sponsored by the University of Alabama now before 468 00:18:00,820 --> 00:18:00,830 by the University of Alabama now before 469 00:18:00,830 --> 00:18:02,200 by the University of Alabama now before I get into the details let me tell you 470 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:02,210 I get into the details let me tell you 471 00:18:02,210 --> 00:18:03,849 I get into the details let me tell you that the goal of this experiment 472 00:18:03,849 --> 00:18:03,859 that the goal of this experiment 473 00:18:03,859 --> 00:18:06,220 that the goal of this experiment it's 132 times on the shuttle by the way 474 00:18:06,220 --> 00:18:06,230 it's 132 times on the shuttle by the way 475 00:18:06,230 --> 00:18:08,859 it's 132 times on the shuttle by the way is to either create new drugs or to 476 00:18:08,859 --> 00:18:08,869 is to either create new drugs or to 477 00:18:08,869 --> 00:18:12,190 is to either create new drugs or to improve drugs we already have now drug 478 00:18:12,190 --> 00:18:12,200 improve drugs we already have now drug 479 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,049 improve drugs we already have now drug design in the United States now is based 480 00:18:14,049 --> 00:18:14,059 design in the United States now is based 481 00:18:14,059 --> 00:18:15,549 design in the United States now is based on a sophisticated process called 482 00:18:15,549 --> 00:18:15,559 on a sophisticated process called 483 00:18:15,559 --> 00:18:18,519 on a sophisticated process called structural based drug design 484 00:18:18,519 --> 00:18:18,529 structural based drug design 485 00:18:18,529 --> 00:18:20,560 structural based drug design that's where experiment is rather than 486 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:20,570 that's where experiment is rather than 487 00:18:20,570 --> 00:18:22,419 that's where experiment is rather than taking a sample of a disease and 488 00:18:22,419 --> 00:18:22,429 taking a sample of a disease and 489 00:18:22,429 --> 00:18:24,549 taking a sample of a disease and applying different drugs to it in a 490 00:18:24,549 --> 00:18:24,559 applying different drugs to it in a 491 00:18:24,559 --> 00:18:27,310 applying different drugs to it in a somewhat haphazard way actually study 492 00:18:27,310 --> 00:18:27,320 somewhat haphazard way actually study 493 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:28,659 somewhat haphazard way actually study the disease's structure 494 00:18:28,659 --> 00:18:28,669 the disease's structure 495 00:18:28,669 --> 00:18:31,239 the disease's structure study the drugs that they might consider 496 00:18:31,239 --> 00:18:31,249 study the drugs that they might consider 497 00:18:31,249 --> 00:18:34,180 study the drugs that they might consider what solve that disease so they just fit 498 00:18:34,180 --> 00:18:34,190 what solve that disease so they just fit 499 00:18:34,190 --> 00:18:36,279 what solve that disease so they just fit together so they actually look at the 500 00:18:36,279 --> 00:18:36,289 together so they actually look at the 501 00:18:36,289 --> 00:18:39,519 together so they actually look at the structure of this crystal or drug to try 502 00:18:39,519 --> 00:18:39,529 structure of this crystal or drug to try 503 00:18:39,529 --> 00:18:41,080 structure of this crystal or drug to try and find out what exactly fits into that 504 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:41,090 and find out what exactly fits into that 505 00:18:41,090 --> 00:18:43,149 and find out what exactly fits into that disease actually would cure that disease 506 00:18:43,149 --> 00:18:43,159 disease actually would cure that disease 507 00:18:43,159 --> 00:18:45,700 disease actually would cure that disease now this National Institute of Health as 508 00:18:45,700 --> 00:18:45,710 now this National Institute of Health as 509 00:18:45,710 --> 00:18:47,830 now this National Institute of Health as a structural based drug design is one of 510 00:18:47,830 --> 00:18:47,840 a structural based drug design is one of 511 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:49,210 a structural based drug design is one of their number-one priorities in the next 512 00:18:49,210 --> 00:18:49,220 their number-one priorities in the next 513 00:18:49,220 --> 00:18:49,840 their number-one priorities in the next ten years 514 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:49,850 ten years 515 00:18:49,850 --> 00:18:52,450 ten years now unfortunately in some cases where we 516 00:18:52,450 --> 00:18:52,460 now unfortunately in some cases where we 517 00:18:52,460 --> 00:18:54,909 now unfortunately in some cases where we grow crystals on the ground again trying 518 00:18:54,909 --> 00:18:54,919 grow crystals on the ground again trying 519 00:18:54,919 --> 00:18:57,759 grow crystals on the ground again trying to analyze the crystals to heal this 520 00:18:57,759 --> 00:18:57,769 to analyze the crystals to heal this 521 00:18:57,769 --> 00:19:00,129 to analyze the crystals to heal this disease the crystals cannot be grown on 522 00:19:00,129 --> 00:19:00,139 disease the crystals cannot be grown on 523 00:19:00,139 --> 00:19:02,229 disease the crystals cannot be grown on the ground because of our gravity well 524 00:19:02,229 --> 00:19:02,239 the ground because of our gravity well 525 00:19:02,239 --> 00:19:03,909 the ground because of our gravity well the good news is that in space we don't 526 00:19:03,909 --> 00:19:03,919 the good news is that in space we don't 527 00:19:03,919 --> 00:19:05,979 the good news is that in space we don't have vanity and we can grow crystals for 528 00:19:05,979 --> 00:19:05,989 have vanity and we can grow crystals for 529 00:19:05,989 --> 00:19:13,119 have vanity and we can grow crystals for the scientists okay what I have here is 530 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:13,129 the scientists okay what I have here is 531 00:19:13,129 --> 00:19:15,430 the scientists okay what I have here is a picture on the bottom of a 532 00:19:15,430 --> 00:19:15,440 a picture on the bottom of a 533 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:20,349 a picture on the bottom of a ground-based crystal phone and on the 534 00:19:20,349 --> 00:19:20,359 ground-based crystal phone and on the 535 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,269 ground-based crystal phone and on the top is the crystal grown in space now 536 00:19:22,269 --> 00:19:22,279 top is the crystal grown in space now 537 00:19:22,279 --> 00:19:23,769 top is the crystal grown in space now these photos are the same magnification 538 00:19:23,769 --> 00:19:23,779 these photos are the same magnification 539 00:19:23,779 --> 00:19:25,659 these photos are the same magnification of the same drug so you can see that 540 00:19:25,659 --> 00:19:25,669 of the same drug so you can see that 541 00:19:25,669 --> 00:19:27,430 of the same drug so you can see that these crystals on the ground grow on the 542 00:19:27,430 --> 00:19:27,440 these crystals on the ground grow on the 543 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,229 these crystals on the ground grow on the ground we're limited in size and quality 544 00:19:29,229 --> 00:19:29,239 ground we're limited in size and quality 545 00:19:29,239 --> 00:19:31,450 ground we're limited in size and quality whereas the crystals grown in space are 546 00:19:31,450 --> 00:19:31,460 whereas the crystals grown in space are 547 00:19:31,460 --> 00:19:33,570 whereas the crystals grown in space are much bigger and much better quality 548 00:19:33,570 --> 00:19:33,580 much bigger and much better quality 549 00:19:33,580 --> 00:19:36,430 much bigger and much better quality therefore space flight produces crystals 550 00:19:36,430 --> 00:19:36,440 therefore space flight produces crystals 551 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:38,190 therefore space flight produces crystals that are better quality and larger 552 00:19:38,190 --> 00:19:38,200 that are better quality and larger 553 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,899 that are better quality and larger scientists can then can then take the 554 00:19:40,899 --> 00:19:40,909 scientists can then can then take the 555 00:19:40,909 --> 00:19:42,519 scientists can then can then take the crystals on the ground and analyze and 556 00:19:42,519 --> 00:19:42,529 crystals on the ground and analyze and 557 00:19:42,529 --> 00:19:43,419 crystals on the ground and analyze and now on earth while we're flying 558 00:19:43,419 --> 00:19:43,429 now on earth while we're flying 559 00:19:43,429 --> 00:19:45,759 now on earth while we're flying something called alpha interferon it's 560 00:19:45,759 --> 00:19:45,769 something called alpha interferon it's 561 00:19:45,769 --> 00:19:47,739 something called alpha interferon it's already a very successful drug around 562 00:19:47,739 --> 00:19:47,749 already a very successful drug around 563 00:19:47,749 --> 00:19:49,690 already a very successful drug around the world used in 60 countries to treat 564 00:19:49,690 --> 00:19:49,700 the world used in 60 countries to treat 565 00:19:49,700 --> 00:19:52,210 the world used in 60 countries to treat various forms of cancer and also viral 566 00:19:52,210 --> 00:19:52,220 various forms of cancer and also viral 567 00:19:52,220 --> 00:19:55,479 various forms of cancer and also viral diseases however remember that the goal 568 00:19:55,479 --> 00:19:55,489 diseases however remember that the goal 569 00:19:55,489 --> 00:19:57,609 diseases however remember that the goal of C PGG is either to help discover new 570 00:19:57,609 --> 00:19:57,619 of C PGG is either to help discover new 571 00:19:57,619 --> 00:20:00,070 of C PGG is either to help discover new drugs or to improve current drugs and in 572 00:20:00,070 --> 00:20:00,080 drugs or to improve current drugs and in 573 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,470 drugs or to improve current drugs and in our case we're trying to improve alpha 574 00:20:02,470 --> 00:20:02,480 our case we're trying to improve alpha 575 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,330 our case we're trying to improve alpha interferon and when you try to 576 00:20:04,330 --> 00:20:04,340 interferon and when you try to 577 00:20:04,340 --> 00:20:06,250 interferon and when you try to prove a drug you're basically trying to 578 00:20:06,250 --> 00:20:06,260 prove a drug you're basically trying to 579 00:20:06,260 --> 00:20:09,400 prove a drug you're basically trying to eliminate some of the side effects so 580 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:09,410 eliminate some of the side effects so 581 00:20:09,410 --> 00:20:10,960 eliminate some of the side effects so now that's the second experiment I've 582 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:10,970 now that's the second experiment I've 583 00:20:10,970 --> 00:20:13,600 now that's the second experiment I've decided to describe to you and it's an 584 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:13,610 decided to describe to you and it's an 585 00:20:13,610 --> 00:20:15,490 decided to describe to you and it's an excellent example of how we go into 586 00:20:15,490 --> 00:20:15,500 excellent example of how we go into 587 00:20:15,500 --> 00:20:17,560 excellent example of how we go into space to improve our lives on earth and 588 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:17,570 space to improve our lives on earth and 589 00:20:17,570 --> 00:20:19,930 space to improve our lives on earth and to solve problems we have on earth so 590 00:20:19,930 --> 00:20:19,940 to solve problems we have on earth so 591 00:20:19,940 --> 00:20:21,880 to solve problems we have on earth so when you think of NASA and the shuttle 592 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:21,890 when you think of NASA and the shuttle 593 00:20:21,890 --> 00:20:24,460 when you think of NASA and the shuttle program going up into space we go away 594 00:20:24,460 --> 00:20:24,470 program going up into space we go away 595 00:20:24,470 --> 00:20:26,110 program going up into space we go away from the Earth's surface to actually 596 00:20:26,110 --> 00:20:26,120 from the Earth's surface to actually 597 00:20:26,120 --> 00:20:27,730 from the Earth's surface to actually help our families and friends in the 598 00:20:27,730 --> 00:20:27,740 help our families and friends in the 599 00:20:27,740 --> 00:20:28,090 help our families and friends in the world 600 00:20:28,090 --> 00:20:28,100 world 601 00:20:28,100 --> 00:21:48,240 world on the ground 602 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:48,250 603 00:21:48,250 --> 00:21:55,240 the future load switch I'm doing that 604 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:55,250 the future load switch I'm doing that 605 00:21:55,250 --> 00:21:58,870 the future load switch I'm doing that and pushing that ahead calibration 606 00:21:58,870 --> 00:21:58,880 and pushing that ahead calibration 607 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,270 and pushing that ahead calibration go right to the green center left of the 608 00:22:01,270 --> 00:22:01,280 go right to the green center left of the 609 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:04,870 go right to the green center left of the green center release 610 00:22:04,870 --> 00:22:04,880 green center release 611 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:10,169 green center release and over here and show the target 612 00:22:10,169 --> 00:22:10,179 613 00:22:10,179 --> 00:22:12,570 a horizontal head calibration trial 614 00:22:12,570 --> 00:22:12,580 a horizontal head calibration trial 615 00:22:12,580 --> 00:22:56,710 a horizontal head calibration trial number two 616 00:22:56,710 --> 00:22:56,720 617 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:58,930 one of the medical experiments were 618 00:22:58,930 --> 00:22:58,940 one of the medical experiments were 619 00:22:58,940 --> 00:23:00,830 one of the medical experiments were participating in you may have noticed 620 00:23:00,830 --> 00:23:00,840 participating in you may have noticed 621 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,710 participating in you may have noticed the device that's on Dan and my wrist 622 00:23:03,710 --> 00:23:03,720 the device that's on Dan and my wrist 623 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:09,550 the device that's on Dan and my wrist it's called back to low and it's part of 624 00:23:09,550 --> 00:23:09,560 625 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:13,670 and not only they monitoring the 626 00:23:13,670 --> 00:23:13,680 and not only they monitoring the 627 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,490 and not only they monitoring the melatonin levels in our urine and saliva 628 00:23:16,490 --> 00:23:16,500 melatonin levels in our urine and saliva 629 00:23:16,500 --> 00:23:18,770 melatonin levels in our urine and saliva they're also monitoring the light levels 630 00:23:18,770 --> 00:23:18,780 they're also monitoring the light levels 631 00:23:18,780 --> 00:23:20,330 they're also monitoring the light levels that were exposed to light apparently 632 00:23:20,330 --> 00:23:20,340 that were exposed to light apparently 633 00:23:20,340 --> 00:23:23,720 that were exposed to light apparently controls the production of melatonin so 634 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:23,730 controls the production of melatonin so 635 00:23:23,730 --> 00:23:25,310 controls the production of melatonin so the devices that we have on our wrists 636 00:23:25,310 --> 00:23:25,320 the devices that we have on our wrists 637 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:26,630 the devices that we have on our wrists are actually measuring the light levels 638 00:23:26,630 --> 00:23:26,640 are actually measuring the light levels 639 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,030 are actually measuring the light levels that were exposed to 24 hours a day in 640 00:23:29,030 --> 00:23:29,040 that were exposed to 24 hours a day in 641 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:30,770 that were exposed to 24 hours a day in addition to measuring our levels of 642 00:23:30,770 --> 00:23:30,780 addition to measuring our levels of 643 00:23:30,780 --> 00:23:32,420 addition to measuring our levels of activity there's some accelerometers in 644 00:23:32,420 --> 00:23:32,430 activity there's some accelerometers in 645 00:23:32,430 --> 00:23:34,460 activity there's some accelerometers in these devices and so it measures the 646 00:23:34,460 --> 00:23:34,470 these devices and so it measures the 647 00:23:34,470 --> 00:23:36,590 these devices and so it measures the level of activity during the day and 648 00:23:36,590 --> 00:23:36,600 level of activity during the day and 649 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:37,880 level of activity during the day and then particularly it's been the level of 650 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:37,890 then particularly it's been the level of 651 00:23:37,890 --> 00:23:40,100 then particularly it's been the level of activity while we're sleeping it can 652 00:23:40,100 --> 00:23:40,110 activity while we're sleeping it can 653 00:23:40,110 --> 00:23:41,930 activity while we're sleeping it can tell them whether we're sleeping very 654 00:23:41,930 --> 00:23:41,940 tell them whether we're sleeping very 655 00:23:41,940 --> 00:23:44,300 tell them whether we're sleeping very well or not and therefore that's a good 656 00:23:44,300 --> 00:23:44,310 well or not and therefore that's a good 657 00:23:44,310 --> 00:23:46,610 well or not and therefore that's a good measure of how well we're adjusting our 658 00:23:46,610 --> 00:23:46,620 measure of how well we're adjusting our 659 00:23:46,620 --> 00:23:49,640 measure of how well we're adjusting our time clocks pretty much count on looking 660 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:49,650 time clocks pretty much count on looking 661 00:23:49,650 --> 00:23:51,230 time clocks pretty much count on looking at the imagery after the mission we 662 00:23:51,230 --> 00:23:51,240 at the imagery after the mission we 663 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,590 at the imagery after the mission we don't have ready access to NASA select 664 00:23:53,590 --> 00:23:53,600 don't have ready access to NASA select 665 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:56,300 don't have ready access to NASA select but we're very excited about the work 666 00:23:56,300 --> 00:23:56,310 but we're very excited about the work 667 00:23:56,310 --> 00:24:00,710 but we're very excited about the work that you're doing and we'll be looking 668 00:24:00,710 --> 00:24:00,720

sensors in the cargo bay right useful unless we have the cruiser on 780 00:33:12,630 --> 00:33:12,640 useful unless we have the cruiser on 781 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:15,240 useful unless we have the cruiser on board to operate them for the imaging 782 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:15,250 board to operate them for the imaging 783 00:33:15,250 --> 00:33:17,100 board to operate them for the imaging radar part of the mission the crew has 784 00:33:17,100 --> 00:33:17,110 radar part of the mission the crew has 785 00:33:17,110 --> 00:33:19,620 radar part of the mission the crew has an essential role to play there's a huge 786 00:33:19,620 --> 00:33:19,630 an essential role to play there's a huge 787 00:33:19,630 --> 00:33:21,029 an essential role to play there's a huge amount of data coming down from the 788 00:33:21,029 --> 00:33:21,039 amount of data coming down from the 789 00:33:21,039 --> 00:33:23,130 amount of data coming down from the instrument out there as it images the 790 00:33:23,130 --> 00:33:23,140 instrument out there as it images the 791 00:33:23,140 --> 00:33:25,409 instrument out there as it images the Earth's surface and those images have to 792 00:33:25,409 --> 00:33:25,419 Earth's surface and those images have to 793 00:33:25,419 --> 00:33:26,880 Earth's surface and those images have to be transferred to the ground we don't 794 00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:26,890 be transferred to the ground we don't 795 00:33:26,890 --> 00:33:29,490 be transferred to the ground we don't have enough communications link onboard 796 00:33:29,490 --> 00:33:29,500 have enough communications link onboard 797 00:33:29,500 --> 00:33:31,799 have enough communications link onboard to transfer them all in real time so the 798 00:33:31,799 --> 00:33:31,809 to transfer them all in real time so the 799 00:33:31,809 --> 00:33:34,500 to transfer them all in real time so the first role the crew is to handle the 800 00:33:34,500 --> 00:33:34,510 first role the crew is to handle the 801 00:33:34,510 --> 00:33:36,029 first role the crew is to handle the data coming back from the radar we do 802 00:33:36,029 --> 00:33:36,039 data coming back from the radar we do 803 00:33:36,039 --> 00:33:38,070 data coming back from the radar we do that by changing out our data tapes 804 00:33:38,070 --> 00:33:38,080 that by changing out our data tapes 805 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:41,399 that by changing out our data tapes onboard and about 207 data tapes onboard 806 00:33:41,399 --> 00:33:41,409 onboard and about 207 data tapes onboard 807 00:33:41,409 --> 00:33:43,980 onboard and about 207 data tapes onboard each of them holds 50 gigabytes of data 808 00:33:43,980 --> 00:33:43,990 each of them holds 50 gigabytes of data 809 00:33:43,990 --> 00:33:46,830 each of them holds 50 gigabytes of data and we've gotten really good at 810 00:33:46,830 --> 00:33:46,840 and we've gotten really good at 811 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:48,539 and we've gotten really good at practicing changing out those tapes we 812 00:33:48,539 --> 00:33:48,549 practicing changing out those tapes we 813 00:33:48,549 --> 00:33:50,759 practicing changing out those tapes we hope to bring back about 50 to tera bits 814 00:33:50,759 --> 00:33:50,769 hope to bring back about 50 to tera bits 815 00:33:50,769 --> 00:33:52,379 hope to bring back about 50 to tera bits of data something like 20,000 816 00:33:52,379 --> 00:33:52,389 of data something like 20,000 817 00:33:52,389 --> 00:33:54,659 of data something like 20,000 encyclopedia volumes of information by 818 00:33:54,659 --> 00:33:54,669 encyclopedia volumes of information by 819 00:33:54,669 --> 00:33:57,210 encyclopedia volumes of information by the time we're finished the second part 820 00:33:57,210 --> 00:33:57,220 the time we're finished the second part 821 00:33:57,220 --> 00:34:00,180 the time we're finished the second part of the cruise role is to handle a 822 00:34:00,180 --> 00:34:00,190 of the cruise role is to handle a 823 00:34:00,190 --> 00:34:01,830 of the cruise role is to handle a photography that supports the science 824 00:34:01,830 --> 00:34:01,840 photography that supports the science 825 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:04,259 photography that supports the science investigations around the world in many 826 00:34:04,259 --> 00:34:04,269 investigations around the world in many 827 00:34:04,269 --> 00:34:05,610 investigations around the world in many freezes to the world we don't have 828 00:34:05,610 --> 00:34:05,620 freezes to the world we don't have 829 00:34:05,620 --> 00:34:07,139 freezes to the world we don't have scientific teams on the ground to 830 00:34:07,139 --> 00:34:07,149 scientific teams on the ground to 831 00:34:07,149 --> 00:34:09,570 scientific teams on the ground to validate the results from the radars or 832 00:34:09,570 --> 00:34:09,580 validate the results from the radars or 833 00:34:09,580 --> 00:34:12,659 validate the results from the radars or from the maps pollution sensor and so we 834 00:34:12,659 --> 00:34:12,669 from the maps pollution sensor and so we 835 00:34:12,669 --> 00:34:14,760 from the maps pollution sensor and so we are the ground troops photography from 836 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:14,770 are the ground troops photography from 837 00:34:14,770 --> 00:34:17,399 are the ground troops photography from 14,000 still photo frames is going to be 838 00:34:17,399 --> 00:34:17,409 14,000 still photo frames is going to be 839 00:34:17,409 --> 00:34:20,579 14,000 still photo frames is going to be used to provide the environmental 840 00:34:20,579 --> 00:34:20,589 used to provide the environmental 841 00:34:20,589 --> 00:34:22,230 used to provide the environmental conditions over those targets and remote 842 00:34:22,230 --> 00:34:22,240 conditions over those targets and remote 843 00:34:22,240 --> 00:34:23,790 conditions over those targets and remote areas of the globe will don't have 844 00:34:23,790 --> 00:34:23,800 areas of the globe will don't have 845 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,220 areas of the globe will don't have independent certification and the last 846 00:34:26,220 --> 00:34:26,230 independent certification and the last 847 00:34:26,230 --> 00:34:27,480 independent certification and the last thing we're doing and probably the most 848 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:27,490 thing we're doing and probably the most 849 00:34:27,490 --> 00:34:29,129 thing we're doing and probably the most important role that the crews playing on 850 00:34:29,129 --> 00:34:29,139 important role that the crews playing on 851 00:34:29,139 --> 00:34:31,139 important role that the crews playing on this mission is to point the payload Bay 852 00:34:31,139 --> 00:34:31,149 this mission is to point the payload Bay 853 00:34:31,149 --> 00:34:33,510 this mission is to point the payload Bay instruments at the required targets and 854 00:34:33,510 --> 00:34:33,520 instruments at the required targets and 855 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:35,460 instruments at the required targets and to do that we're conducting a succession 856 00:34:35,460 --> 00:34:35,470 to do that we're conducting a succession 857 00:34:35,470 --> 00:34:38,159 to do that we're conducting a succession of maneuvers about 409 of them during 858 00:34:38,159 --> 00:34:38,169 of maneuvers about 409 of them during 859 00:34:38,169 --> 00:34:40,710 of maneuvers about 409 of them during the mission and that's about 25,000 860 00:34:40,710 --> 00:34:40,720 the mission and that's about 25,000 861 00:34:40,720 --> 00:34:42,329 the mission and that's about 25,000 computer keystrokes to tell endeavours 862 00:34:42,329 --> 00:34:42,339 computer keystrokes to tell endeavours 863 00:34:42,339 --> 00:34:44,369 computer keystrokes to tell endeavours computers how to orient the payload 864 00:34:44,369 --> 00:34:44,379 computers how to orient the payload 865 00:34:44,379 --> 00:34:46,889 computers how to orient the payload basis to get the optimum data coming 866 00:34:46,889 --> 00:34:46,899 basis to get the optimum data coming 867 00:34:46,899 --> 00:34:50,579 basis to get the optimum data coming back down to the ground so the radar in 868 00:34:50,579 --> 00:34:50,589 back down to the ground so the radar in 869 00:34:50,589 --> 00:34:52,619 back down to the ground so the radar in the cargo bay thrust the XR is a 870 00:34:52,619 --> 00:34:52,629 the cargo bay thrust the XR is a 871 00:34:52,629 --> 00:34:55,200 the cargo bay thrust the XR is a synthetic aperture radar and it paints a 872 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:55,210 synthetic aperture radar and it paints a 873 00:34:55,210 --> 00:34:56,669 synthetic aperture radar and it paints a picture of the Earth's surface through 874 00:34:56,669 --> 00:34:56,679 picture of the Earth's surface through 875 00:34:56,679 --> 00:34:59,040 picture of the Earth's surface through darkness and clouds and conducts operate 876 00:34:59,040 --> 00:34:59,050

dramatic changes on the surface that we're more familiar with like 936 00:36:04,030 --> 00:36:04,040 that we're more familiar with like 937 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,390 that we're more familiar with like volcanoes and storm systems for example 938 00:36:06,390 --> 00:36:06,400 volcanoes and storm systems for example 939 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,370 volcanoes and storm systems for example in the area of ecology we're looking at 940 00:36:09,370 --> 00:36:09,380 in the area of ecology we're looking at 941 00:36:09,380 --> 00:36:11,859 in the area of ecology we're looking at clearing into forestation around the 942 00:36:11,859 --> 00:36:11,869 clearing into forestation around the 943 00:36:11,869 --> 00:36:14,109 clearing into forestation around the world with the tropical and northern 944 00:36:14,109 --> 00:36:14,119 world with the tropical and northern 945 00:36:14,119 --> 00:36:16,270 world with the tropical and northern forests of the world to see the rate at 946 00:36:16,270 --> 00:36:16,280 forests of the world to see the rate at 947 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:17,859 forests of the world to see the rate at which we're destroying the forests and 948 00:36:17,859 --> 00:36:17,869 which we're destroying the forests and 949 00:36:17,869 --> 00:36:18,970 which we're destroying the forests and the rate at which they're renewing 950 00:36:18,970 --> 00:36:18,980 the rate at which they're renewing 951 00:36:18,980 --> 00:36:20,560 the rate at which they're renewing themselves so we can really quantify 952 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:20,570 themselves so we can really quantify 953 00:36:20,570 --> 00:36:22,750 themselves so we can really quantify that important phenomenon in the 954 00:36:22,750 --> 00:36:22,760 that important phenomenon in the 955 00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:24,520 that important phenomenon in the ecosystem they've already seen a lot of 956 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:24,530 ecosystem they've already seen a lot of 957 00:36:24,530 --> 00:36:26,740 ecosystem they've already seen a lot of forest fires over in Asia and in 958 00:36:26,740 --> 00:36:26,750 forest fires over in Asia and in 959 00:36:26,750 --> 00:36:29,710 forest fires over in Asia and in Australia some at night over Africa and 960 00:36:29,710 --> 00:36:29,720 Australia some at night over Africa and 961 00:36:29,720 --> 00:36:33,130 Australia some at night over Africa and in South America as well and our data 962 00:36:33,130 --> 00:36:33,140 in South America as well and our data 963 00:36:33,140 --> 00:36:34,690 in South America as well and our data when we come back will give us the rates 964 00:36:34,690 --> 00:36:34,700 when we come back will give us the rates 965 00:36:34,700 --> 00:36:37,240 when we come back will give us the rates of forest change around the world terms 966 00:36:37,240 --> 00:36:37,250 of forest change around the world terms 967 00:36:37,250 --> 00:36:39,250 of forest change around the world terms of pollution we're looking for the way 968 00:36:39,250 --> 00:36:39,260 of pollution we're looking for the way 969 00:36:39,260 --> 00:36:41,109 of pollution we're looking for the way that carbon monoxide drifts around the 970 00:36:41,109 --> 00:36:41,119 that carbon monoxide drifts around the 971 00:36:41,119 --> 00:36:42,910 that carbon monoxide drifts around the world from its sources like forest fires 972 00:36:42,910 --> 00:36:42,920 world from its sources like forest fires 973 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:45,099 world from its sources like forest fires and that will help us track these what 974 00:36:45,099 --> 00:36:45,109 and that will help us track these what 975 00:36:45,109 --> 00:36:46,420 and that will help us track these what we're looking for climate change by 976 00:36:46,420 --> 00:36:46,430 we're looking for climate change by 977 00:36:46,430 --> 00:36:48,010 we're looking for climate change by looking at the geology around the world 978 00:36:48,010 --> 00:36:48,020 looking at the geology around the world 979 00:36:48,020 --> 00:36:50,980 looking at the geology around the world for traces in the geologic past of radio 980 00:36:50,980 --> 00:36:50,990 for traces in the geologic past of radio 981 00:36:50,990 --> 00:36:52,990 for traces in the geologic past of radio radio and dryer periods in the Earth's 982 00:36:52,990 --> 00:36:53,000 radio and dryer periods in the Earth's 983 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,330 radio and dryer periods in the Earth's deserts and the valleys that show 984 00:36:55,330 --> 00:36:55,340 deserts and the valleys that show 985 00:36:55,340 --> 00:36:58,080 deserts and the valleys that show alluvial fan erosion those are very key 986 00:36:58,080 --> 00:36:58,090 alluvial fan erosion those are very key 987 00:36:58,090 --> 00:37:00,460 alluvial fan erosion those are very key points to investigate for looking back 988 00:37:00,460 --> 00:37:00,470 points to investigate for looking back 989 00:37:00,470 --> 00:37:02,800 points to investigate for looking back into the Earth's climatic past before 990 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:02,810 into the Earth's climatic past before 991 00:37:02,810 --> 00:37:05,080 into the Earth's climatic past before we've also been looking at several storm 992 00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:05,090 we've also been looking at several storm 993 00:37:05,090 --> 00:37:07,540 we've also been looking at several storm systems down in the southern ocean that 994 00:37:07,540 --> 00:37:07,550 systems down in the southern ocean that 995 00:37:07,550 --> 00:37:09,700 systems down in the southern ocean that which can track on a day-to-day basis 996 00:37:09,700 --> 00:37:09,710 which can track on a day-to-day basis 997 00:37:09,710 --> 00:37:11,800 which can track on a day-to-day basis and there are targets for birth to radar 998 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:11,810 and there are targets for birth to radar 999 00:37:11,810 --> 00:37:14,080 and there are targets for birth to radar and some of the maps instruments because 1000 00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:14,090 and some of the maps instruments because 1001 00:37:14,090 --> 00:37:16,510 and some of the maps instruments because they are those phone systems can 1002 00:37:16,510 --> 00:37:16,520 they are those phone systems can 1003 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:18,880 they are those phone systems can distribute pollution around the world we 1004 00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:18,890 distribute pollution around the world we 1005 00:37:18,890 --> 00:37:20,200 distribute pollution around the world we have a busy week ahead of us here on 1006 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:20,210 have a busy week ahead of us here on 1007 00:37:20,210 --> 00:37:22,540 have a busy week ahead of us here on space radar lab we've got a lot of work 1008 00:37:22,540 --> 00:37:22,550 space radar lab we've got a lot of work 1009 00:37:22,550 --> 00:37:24,670 space radar lab we've got a lot of work to do in terms of maneuvering changing 1010 00:37:24,670 --> 00:37:24,680 to do in terms of maneuvering changing 1011 00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:26,920 to do in terms of maneuvering changing the tapes and most important for us on a 1012 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:26,930 the tapes and most important for us on a 1013 00:37:26,930 --> 00:37:28,570 the tapes and most important for us on a daily basis is taking all those still 1014 00:37:28,570 --> 00:37:28,580 daily basis is taking all those still 1015 00:37:28,580 --> 00:37:30,820 daily basis is taking all those still photography still photos from the aft 1016 00:37:30,820 --> 00:37:30,830 photography still photos from the aft 1017 00:37:30,830 --> 00:37:32,950 photography still photos from the aft windows it keeps us constantly busy when 1018 00:37:32,950 --> 00:37:32,960 windows it keeps us constantly busy when 1019 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:34,860 windows it keeps us constantly busy when there's a daylight pass going on 1020 00:37:34,860 --> 00:37:34,870 there's a daylight pass going on 1021 00:37:34,870 --> 00:37:36,940 there's a daylight pass going on that's not surprising news is a very 1022 00:37:36,940 --> 00:37:36,950 that's not surprising news is a very 1023 00:37:36,950 --> 00:37:39,520 that's not surprising news is a very complex system takes a lot of study to 1024 00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:39,530 complex system takes a lot of study to 1025 00:37:39,530 --> 00:37:42,370 complex system takes a lot of study to understand it and the only future 1026 00:37:42,370 --> 00:37:42,380 understand it and the only future 1027 00:37:42,380 --> 00:37:44,140 understand it and the only future permanent platform or suite of 1028 00:37:44,140 --> 00:37:44,150 permanent platform or suite of 1029 00:37:44,150 --> 00:37:45,220 permanent platform or suite of instruments in orbit it's going to be 1030

--> 00:37:47,180 able to do that on a permanent basis and 1033 00:37:47,180 --> 00:37:49,330 able to do that on a permanent basis and we hope that by flying this testbed will 1034 00:37:49,330 --> 00:37:49,340 we hope that by flying this testbed will 1035 00:37:49,340 --> 00:37:50,830 we hope that by flying this testbed will prove that that principle will in fact 1036 00:37:50,830 --> 00:37:50,840 prove that that principle will in fact 1037 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:52,960 prove that that principle will in fact work we're getting a taste of some of 1038 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:52,970 work we're getting a taste of some of 1039 00:37:52,970 --> 00:37:54,220 work we're getting a taste of some of the exciting results that we're 1040 00:37:54,220 --> 00:37:54,230 the exciting results that we're 1041 00:37:54,230 --> 00:37:56,560 the exciting results that we're anticipating here in orbit with our own 1042 00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:56,570 anticipating here in orbit with our own 1043 00:37:56,570 --> 00:37:59,440 anticipating here in orbit with our own eyes and it's going to be an exciting 1044 00:37:59,440 --> 00:37:59,450 eyes and it's going to be an exciting 1045 00:37:59,450 --> 00:38:01,450 eyes and it's going to be an exciting look at the data when we get back to the 1046 00:38:01,450 --> 00:38:01,460 look at the data when we get back to the 1047 00:38:01,460 --> 00:38:03,490 look at the data when we get back to the ground with those 207 data tapes and 1048 00:38:03,490 --> 00:38:03,500 ground with those 207 data tapes and 1049 00:38:03,500 --> 00:38:05,680 ground with those 207 data tapes and really see in full fidelity what the 1050 00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:05,690 really see in full fidelity what the 1051 00:38:05,690 --> 00:38:08,200 really see in full fidelity what the Circe XR and map sensors have brought 1052 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:08,210 Circe XR and map sensors have brought 1053 00:38:08,210 --> 00:38:10,390 Circe XR and map sensors have brought back well we can see the changes here 1054 00:38:10,390 --> 00:38:10,400 back well we can see the changes here 1055 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:11,440 back well we can see the changes here we're going to try to show them with you 1056 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:11,450 we're going to try to show them with you 1057 00:38:11,450 --> 00:38:32,079 we're going to try to show them with you in the coming week 1058 00:38:32,079 --> 00:38:32,089 1059 00:38:32,089 --> 00:38:34,589 okay you should be getting this Europe 1060 00:38:34,589 --> 00:38:34,599 okay you should be getting this Europe 1061 00:38:34,599 --> 00:38:37,870 okay you should be getting this Europe through the square volcano you can see 1062 00:38:37,870 --> 00:38:37,880 through the square volcano you can see 1063 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:40,539 through the square volcano you can see the upper slopes and there's a very 1064 00:38:40,539 --> 00:38:40,549 the upper slopes and there's a very 1065 00:38:40,549 --> 00:38:42,729 the upper slopes and there's a very active eruption going on from the 1066 00:38:42,729 --> 00:38:42,739 active eruption going on from the 1067 00:38:42,739 --> 00:38:46,719 active eruption going on from the northeast portion about des County is 1068 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:46,729 northeast portion about des County is 1069 00:38:46,729 --> 00:38:50,109 northeast portion about des County is behind the smoke plume it will looks 1070 00:38:50,109 --> 00:38:50,119 behind the smoke plume it will looks 1071 00:38:50,119 --> 00:38:51,429 behind the smoke plume it will looks like some the shadow heights you can 1072 00:38:51,429 --> 00:38:51,439 like some the shadow heights you can 1073 00:38:51,439 --> 00:38:52,959 like some the shadow heights you can even estimate the height of the eruption 1074 00:38:52,959 --> 00:38:52,969 even estimate the height of the eruption 1075 00:38:52,969 --> 00:38:55,809 even estimate the height of the eruption through but we're guessing it at least 1076 00:38:55,809 --> 00:38:55,819 through but we're guessing it at least 1077 00:38:55,819 --> 00:39:00,279 through but we're guessing it at least 35 or 40 thousand and that dark gray 1078 00:39:00,279 --> 00:39:00,289 35 or 40 thousand and that dark gray 1079 00:39:00,289 --> 00:39:03,910 35 or 40 thousand and that dark gray dust will goes down with at least 500 1080 00:39:03,910 --> 00:39:03,920 dust will goes down with at least 500 1081 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:11,439 dust will goes down with at least 500 kilometres if not more okay now this is 1082 00:39:11,439 --> 00:39:11,449 kilometres if not more okay now this is 1083 00:39:11,449 --> 00:39:14,400 kilometres if not more okay now this is a going away shot east end of the 1084 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:14,410 a going away shot east end of the 1085 00:39:14,410 --> 00:39:16,299 a going away shot east end of the volcano you could still see the lava 1086 00:39:16,299 --> 00:39:16,309 volcano you could still see the lava 1087 00:39:16,309 --> 00:39:18,130 volcano you could still see the lava flows at the top of the screen where the 1088 00:39:18,130 --> 00:39:18,140 flows at the top of the screen where the 1089 00:39:18,140 --> 00:39:20,370 flows at the top of the screen where the eruption is actually originating and 1090 00:39:20,370 --> 00:39:20,380 eruption is actually originating and 1091 00:39:20,380 --> 00:39:23,170 eruption is actually originating and this gives you good users the profile of 1092 00:39:23,170 --> 00:39:23,180 this gives you good users the profile of 1093 00:39:23,180 --> 00:39:25,199 this gives

00:40:48,609 --> 00:40:56,309 Rico Michigan is one of the ecology sites being studied the the ground looks 1136 00:40:56,309 --> 00:40:56,319 sites being studied the the ground looks 1137 00:40:56,319 --> 00:40:57,660 sites being studied the the ground looks just like it did then we have a 1138 00:40:57,660 --> 00:40:57,670 just like it did then we have a 1139 00:40:57,670 --> 00:40:59,789 just like it did then we have a beautiful mosaic of fall colors 1140 00:40:59,789 --> 00:40:59,799 beautiful mosaic of fall colors 1141 00:40:59,799 --> 00:41:03,059 beautiful mosaic of fall colors beginning to develop and you should be 1142 00:41:03,059 --> 00:41:03,069 beginning to develop and you should be 1143 00:41:03,069 --> 00:41:06,089 beginning to develop and you should be beginning to see lots of reds and 1144 00:41:06,089 --> 00:41:06,099 beginning to see lots of reds and 1145 00:41:06,099 --> 00:41:08,789 beginning to see lots of reds and yellows as you look down over our site 1146 00:41:08,789 --> 00:41:08,799 yellows as you look down over our site 1147 00:41:08,799 --> 00:41:14,579 yellows as you look down over our site in the days to come you know week last 1148 00:41:14,579 --> 00:41:14,589 in the days to come you know week last 1149 00:41:14,589 --> 00:41:16,620 in the days to come you know week last night will simply be looking for it the 1150 00:41:16,620 --> 00:41:16,630 night will simply be looking for it the 1151 00:41:16,630 --> 00:41:18,390 night will simply be looking for it the lighting so far is made a little hard to 1152 00:41:18,390 --> 00:41:18,400 lighting so far is made a little hard to 1153 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,640 lighting so far is made a little hard to distinguish colors but we have noticed a 1154 00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:20,650 distinguish colors but we have noticed a 1155 00:41:20,650 --> 00:41:22,920 distinguish colors but we have noticed a little bit greener in wood near the 1156 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:22,930 little bit greener in wood near the 1157 00:41:22,930 --> 00:41:24,329 little bit greener in wood near the coastal lines for the Great Lakes it's 1158 00:41:24,329 --> 00:41:24,339 coastal lines for the Great Lakes it's 1159 00:41:24,339 --> 00:41:27,599 coastal lines for the Great Lakes it's looked a little bit more far like well 1160 00:41:27,599 --> 00:41:27,609 looked a little bit more far like well 1161 00:41:27,609 --> 00:41:29,759 looked a little bit more far like well that should be proceeding along rather 1162 00:41:29,759 --> 00:41:29,769 that should be proceeding along rather 1163 00:41:29,769 --> 00:41:32,819 that should be proceeding along rather quickly now we've had two nights of good 1164 00:41:32,819 --> 00:41:32,829 quickly now we've had two nights of good 1165 00:41:32,829 --> 00:41:36,450 quickly now we've had two nights of good hard Frost's with clear weather and the 1166 00:41:36,450 --> 00:41:36,460 hard Frost's with clear weather and the 1167 00:41:36,460 --> 00:42:01,630 hard Frost's with clear weather and the drying so fall is coming quickly upon us 1168 00:42:01,630 --> 00:42:01,640 1169 00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:03,720 and endeavours now

00:45:23,530 --> 00:45:23,540 1299 00:45:23,540 --> 00:45:26,420 coming up here's the shoreline of one of 1300 00:45:26,420 --> 00:45:26,430 coming up here's the shoreline of one of 1301 00:45:26,430 --> 00:45:32,359 coming up here's the shoreline of one of the islands and we can clearly see the 1302 00:45:32,359 --> 00:45:32,369 the islands and we can clearly see the 1303 00:45:32,369 --> 00:45:35,930 the islands and we can clearly see the volcanoes on those islands these are 1304 00:45:35,930 --> 00:45:35,940 volcanoes on those islands these are 1305 00:45:35,940 --> 00:45:37,790 volcanoes on those islands these are some of the most remote volcanoes in the 1306 00:45:37,790 --> 00:45:37,800 some of the most remote volcanoes in the 1307 00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:39,050 some of the most remote volcanoes in the world and some of the least studies 1308 00:45:39,050 --> 00:45:39,060 world and some of the least studies 1309 00:45:39,060 --> 00:45:40,430 world and some of the least studies because of the remoteness and the 1310 00:45:40,430 --> 00:45:40,440 because of the remoteness and the 1311 00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:43,089 because of the remoteness and the difficulty of getting to them in 1312 00:45:43,089 --> 00:45:43,099 difficulty of getting to them in 1313 00:45:43,099 --> 00:45:45,260 difficulty of getting to them in addition this area is often cloud 1314 00:45:45,260 --> 00:45:45,270 addition this area is often cloud 1315 00:45:45,270 --> 00:45:46,700 addition this area is often cloud covered and makes it difficult for 1316 00:45:46,700 --> 00:45:46,710 covered and makes it difficult for 1317 00:45:46,710 --> 00:45:48,290 covered and makes it difficult for aerial observations or satellite 1318 00:45:48,290 --> 00:45:48,300 aerial observations or satellite 1319 00:45:48,300 --> 00:46:15,180 aerial observations or satellite observations 1320 00:46:15,180 --> 00:46:15,190 1321 00:46:15,190 --> 00:46:17,640 once we get the radar set up and ready 1322 00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:17,650 once we get the radar set up and ready 1323 00:46:17,650 --> 00:46:19,620 once we get the radar set up and ready to go it's ready to start taking data 1324 00:46:19,620 --> 00:46:19,630 to go it's ready to start taking data 1325 00:46:19,630 --> 00:46:21,450 to go it's ready to start taking data and the next scene that you're going to 1326 00:46:21,450 --> 00:46:21,460 and the next scene that you're going to 1327 00:46:21,460 --> 00:46:23,340 and the next scene that you're going to see is a picture of us passing over the 1328 00:46:23,340 --> 00:46:23,350 see is a picture of us passing over the 1329 00:46:23,350 --> 00:46:25,170 see is a picture of us passing over the Sahara Desert as you can see that to the 1330 00:46:25,170 --> 00:46:25,180 Sahara Desert as you can see that to the 1331 00:46:25,180 --> 00:46:26,910 Sahara Desert as you can see that to the eye it doesn't look very like there many 1332 00:46:26,910 --> 00:46:26,920 eye it doesn't look very like there many 1333 00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:28,500 eye it doesn't look very like there many features but when you turn the radar on 1334 00:46:28,500 --> 00:46:28,510 features but when you turn the radar on 1335 00:46:28,510 --> 00:46:29,550 features but when you turn the radar on this is what the radar can see 1336 00:46:29,550 --> 00:46:29,560 this is what the radar can see 1337 00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:30,600 this is what the radar can see underneath the ground or ancient 1338 00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:30,610 underneath the ground or ancient 1339 00:46:30,610 --> 00:46:33,270 underneath the ground or ancient riverbeds and that was part of our study 1340 00:46:33,270 --> 00:46:33,280 riverbeds and that was part of our study 1341 00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:34,650 riverbeds and that was part of our study this was a geological site that we 1342 00:46:34,650 --> 00:46:34,660 this was a geological site that we 1343 00:46:34,660 --> 00:46:36,120 this was a geological site that we wouldn't understand the history of how 1344 00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:36,130 wouldn't understand the history of how 1345 00:46:36,130 --> 00:46:37,710 wouldn't understand the history of how the Sahara Desert became what it is 1346 00:46:37,710 --> 00:46:37,720 the Sahara Desert became what it is 1347 00:46:37,720 --> 00:46:39,690 the Sahara Desert became what it is today because obviously it's climate in 1348 00:46:39,690 --> 00:46:39,700 today because obviously it's climate in 1349 00:46:39,700 --> 00:46:40,890 today because obviously it's climate in the past must have been very different 1350 00:46:40,890 --> 00:46:40,900 the past must have been very different 1351 00:46:40,900 --> 00:52:09,140 the past must have been very different to have these riverbeds underneath 1352 00:52:09,140 --> 00:52:09,150 1353 00:52:09,150 --> 00:52:10,640 this is Mission Control Houston 1354 00:52:10,640 --> 00:52:10,650 this is Mission Control Houston
