43 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,630 here we are getting ready to go out to the pad in our 44 00:00:56,630 --> 00:00:56,640 the pad in our 45 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,029 the pad in our launch escape suits which are relatively 46 00:00:59,029 --> 00:00:59,039 launch escape suits which are relatively 47 00:00:59,039 --> 00:01:00,310 launch escape suits which are relatively comfortable at this point because 48 00:01:00,310 --> 00:01:00,320 comfortable at this point because 49 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,709 comfortable at this point because they're been cooled down pretty well 50 00:01:02,709 --> 00:01:02,719 they're been cooled down pretty well 51 00:01:02,719 --> 00:01:04,789 they're been cooled down pretty well nice day it was wonderful to see so many 52 00:01:04,789 --> 00:01:04,799 nice day it was wonderful to see so many 53 00:01:04,799 --> 00:01:06,710 nice day it was wonderful to see so many folks there to see us off 54 00:01:06,710 --> 00:01:06,720 folks there to see us off 55 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:08,390 folks there to see us off and we had a very pleasant trip out to 56 00:01:08,390 --> 00:01:08,400 and we had a very pleasant trip out to 57 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:10,149 and we had a very pleasant trip out to the pad 58 00:01:10,149 --> 00:01:10,159 the pad 59 00:01:10,159 --> 00:01:11,510 the pad here we're picking up with the launch 60 00:01:11,510 --> 00:01:11,520 here we're picking up with the launch 61 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:13,510 here we're picking up with the launch sequence as a result of our first scrub 62 00:01:13,510 --> 00:01:13,520 sequence as a result of our first scrub 63 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,270 sequence as a result of our first scrub the attitude in the cockpit was actually 64 00:01:15,270 --> 00:01:15,280 the attitude in the cockpit was actually 65 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,190 the attitude in the cockpit was actually relatively relaxed of course there's a 66 00:01:17,190 --> 00:01:17,200 relatively relaxed of course there's a 67 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:18,870 relatively relaxed of course there's a limit to how relaxed you can be when 68 00:01:18,870 --> 00:01:18,880 limit to how relaxed you can be when 69 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:20,469 limit to how relaxed you can be when someone lights off that big torch 70 00:01:20,469 --> 00:01:20,479 someone lights off that big torch 71 00:01:20,479 --> 00:01:22,789 someone lights off that big torch beneath you 72 00:01:22,789 --> 00:01:22,799 beneath you 73 00:01:22,799 --> 00:01:25,510 beneath you there's the orbiter going by the launch 74 00:01:25,510 --> 00:01:25,520 there's the orbiter going by the launch 75 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,429 there's the orbiter going by the launch tower 76 00:01:29,429 --> 00:01:29,439 77 00:01:29,439 --> 00:01:33,190 clearing the tower 78 00:01:33,190 --> 00:01:33,200 79 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,270 see the orbiter or the vehicle roll to 80 00:01:35,270 --> 00:01:35,280 see the orbiter or the vehicle roll to 81 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,109 see the orbiter or the vehicle roll to place us in a heads down attitude and to 82 00:01:37,109 --> 00:01:37,119 place us in a heads down attitude and to 83 00:01:37,119 --> 00:01:39,749 place us in a heads down attitude and to lock to align the vehicle and the proper 84 00:01:39,749 --> 00:01:39,759 lock to align the vehicle and the proper 85 00:01:39,759 --> 00:01:42,550 lock to align the vehicle and the proper azimuth for its ascent phase here's some 86 00:01:42,550 --> 00:01:42,560 azimuth for its ascent phase here's some 87 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:49,590 azimuth for its ascent phase here's some a sequence 88 00:01:49,590 --> 00:01:49,600 89 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,469 continuing on up in first stage 90 00:01:52,469 --> 00:01:52,479 continuing on up in first stage 91 00:01:52,479 --> 00:01:53,990 continuing on up in first stage as dave mentioned we were wearing the 92 00:01:53,990 --> 00:01:54,000 as dave mentioned we were wearing the 93 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,590 as dave mentioned we were wearing the launch escape suits this time around 94 00:01:55,590 --> 00:01:55,600 launch escape suits this time around 95 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,190 launch escape suits this time around they provided a little more acoustic 96 00:01:57,190 --> 00:01:57,200 they provided a little more acoustic 97 00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:58,789 they provided a little more acoustic insulation and it seemed a little 98 00:01:58,789 --> 00:01:58,799 insulation and it seemed a little 99 00:01:58,799 --> 00:02:00,630 insulation and it seemed a little quieter to me than my first flight i 100 00:02:00,630 --> 00:02:00,640 quieter to me than my first flight i 101 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,469 quieter to me than my first flight i think that was shared by the other crew 102 00:02:02,469 --> 00:02:02,479 think that was shared by the other crew 103 00:02:02,479 --> 00:02:04,310 think that was shared by the other crew members that had compared it to previous 104 00:02:04,310 --> 00:02:04,320 members that had compared it to previous 105 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:05,429 members that had compared it to previous launches 106 00:02:05,429 --> 00:02:05,439 launches 107 00:02:05,439 --> 00:02:11,510 launches the next sequence will be the ius deploy 108 00:02:11,510 --> 00:02:11,520 109 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,350 once you get on orbit we got the payload 110 00:02:13,350 --> 00:02:13,360 once you get on orbit we got the payload 111 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,270 once you get on orbit we got the payload bay doors open and we took a good look 112 00:02:15,270 --> 00:02:15,280 bay doors open and we took a good look 113 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:16,710 bay doors open and we took a good look at magellan it was good to see that it 114 00:02:16,710 --> 00:02:16,720 at magellan it was good to see that it 115 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,869 at magellan it was good to see that it was in the same pristine condition as 116 00:02:18,869 --> 00:02:18,879 was in the same pristine condition as 117 00:02:18,879 --> 00:02:21,350 was in the same pristine condition as when we took off we started the 118 00:02:21,350 --> 00:02:21,360 when we took off we started the 119 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,990 when we took off we started the elevation procedures for the deploy and 120 00:02:23,990 --> 00:02:24,000 elevation procedures for the deploy and 121 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:25,910 elevation procedures for the deploy and inside once we got on orbit we had to 122 00:02:25,910 --> 00:02:25,920 inside once we got on orbit we had to 123 00:02:25,920 --> 00:02:27,830 inside once we got on orbit we had to reconfigure a number of systems for 124 00:02:27,830 --> 00:02:27,840 reconfigure a number of systems for 125 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,910 reconfigure a number of systems for on-orbit operations 126 00:02:29,910 --> 00:02:29,920 on-orbit operations 127 00:02:29,920 --> 00:02:31,350 on-orbit operations dave reaching back to one of the 128 00:02:31,350 --> 00:02:31,360 dave reaching back to one of the 129 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,350 dave reaching back to one of the overhead panels and norm helping them 130 00:02:33,350 --> 00:02:33,360 overhead panels and norm helping them 131 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,070 overhead panels and norm helping them out and shortly after that we start into 132 00:02:36,070 --> 00:02:36,080 out and shortly after that we start into 133 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,710 out and shortly after that we start into the procedures that we use to deploy 134 00:02:38,710 --> 00:02:38,720 the procedures that we use to deploy 135 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,270 the procedures that we use to deploy the ius principally it's the 136 00:02:41,270 --> 00:02:41,280 the ius principally it's the 137 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:42,949 the ius principally it's the the panel in back of me and over to the 138 00:02:42,949 --> 00:02:42,959 the panel in back of me and over to the 139 00:02:42,959 --> 00:02:43,830 the panel in back of me and over to the right 140 00:02:43,830 --> 00:02:43,840 right 141 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,869 right of norm once we elevate it up to 29 142 00:02:46,869 --> 00:02:46,879 of norm once we elevate it up to 29 143 00:02:46,879 --> 00:02:49,030 of norm once we elevate it up to 29 degrees and then on up to 52 degrees for 144 00:02:49,030 --> 00:02:49,040 degrees and then on up to 52 degrees for 145 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,190 degrees and then on up to 52 degrees for the deploy we went ahead and threw the 146 00:02:51,190 --> 00:02:51,200 the deploy we went ahead and threw the 147 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,390 the deploy we went ahead and threw the switch and sent magellan on its way 148 00:02:54,390 --> 00:02:54,400 switch and sent magellan on its way 149 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,390 switch and sent magellan on its way it comes out of the payload bay at about 150 00:02:56,390 --> 00:02:56,400 it comes out of the payload bay at about 151 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,550 it comes out of the payload bay at about half a foot per second and during the 152 00:02:58,550 --> 00:02:58,560 half a foot per second and during the 153 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,390 half a foot per second and during the first minute we just sit there and watch 154 00:03:00,390 --> 00:03:00,400 first minute we just sit there and watch 155 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,710 first minute we just sit there and watch it leave the orbiter bay we're in free 156 00:03:02,710 --> 00:03:02,720 it leave the orbiter bay we're in free 157 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,750 it leave the orbiter bay we're in free drift as far as the shuttle is concerned 158 00:03:05,750 --> 00:03:05,760 drift as far as the shuttle is concerned 159 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:07,430 drift as far as the shuttle is concerned and the way it is deployed as you know 160 00:03:07,430 --> 00:03:07,440 and the way it is deployed as you know 161 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,229 and the way it is deployed as you know is a super zip it's a mechanical or a 162 00:03:10,229 --> 00:03:10,239 is a super zip it's a mechanical or a 163 00:03:10,239 --> 00:03:12,869 is a super zip it's a mechanical or a metal band around the ios that is 164 00:03:12,869 --> 00:03:12,879 metal band around the ios that is 165 00:03:12,879 --> 00:03:15,990 metal band around the ios that is separated and several springs send it 166 00:03:15,990 --> 00:03:16,000 separated and several springs send it 167 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:17,750 separated and several springs send it from the payload bay 168 00:03:17,750 --> 00:03:17,760 from the payload bay 169 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,350 from the payload bay ius here 170 00:03:19,350 --> 00:03:19,360 ius here 171 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,869 ius here it's flowing it's it's a very very 172 00:03:22,869 --> 00:03:22,879 it's flowing it's it's a very very 173 00:03:22,879 --> 00:03:24,790 it's flowing it's it's a very very reliable upper stage we used it several 174 00:03:24,790 --> 00:03:24,800 reliable upper stage we used it several 175 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:26,949 reliable upper stage we used it several times and it put magellan on its 176 00:03:26,949 --> 00:03:26,959 times and it put magellan on its 177 00:03:26,959 --> 00:03:28,390 times and it put magellan on its trajectory 178 00:03:28,390 --> 00:03:28,400 trajectory 179 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,149 trajectory the attitude was good it was when three 180 00:03:30,149 --> 00:03:30,159 the attitude was good it was when three 181 00:03:30,159 --> 00:03:31,750 the attitude was good it was when three meters per second of where they said it 182 00:03:31,750 --> 00:03:31,760 meters per second of where they said it 183 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:32,789 meters per second of where they said it was going to be which is pretty 184 00:03:32,789 --> 00:03:32,799 was going to be which is pretty 185 00:03:32,799 --> 00:03:34,949 was going to be which is pretty remarkable performance so it's been a 186 00:03:34,949 --> 00:03:34,959 remarkable performance so it's been a 187 00:03:34,959 --> 00:03:38,229 remarkable performance so it's been a real workhorse of the space program 188 00:03:38,229 --> 00:03:38,239 real workhorse of the space program 189 00:03:38,239 --> 00:03:40,390 real workhorse of the space program especially return to flight after 190 00:03:40,390 --> 00:03:40,400 especially return to flight after 191 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,309 especially return to flight after challenger and right about this time 192 00:03:42,309 --> 00:03:42,319 challenger and right about this time 193 00:03:42,319 --> 00:03:43,990 challenger and right about this time you'll see the rate pickup of the 194 00:03:43,990 --> 00:03:44,000 you'll see the rate pickup of the 195 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,309 you'll see the rate pickup of the payload it's when we put a minus x burn 196 00:03:46,309 --> 00:03:46,319 payload it's when we put a minus x burn 197 00:03:46,319 --> 00:03:47,030 payload it's when we put a minus x burn in 198 00:03:47,030 --> 00:03:47,040 in 199 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:47,990 in to the 200 00:03:47,990 --> 00:03:48,000 to the 201 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,270 to the orbiter it separates us from the payload 202 00:03:51,270 --> 00:03:51,280 orbiter it separates us from the payload 203 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,670 orbiter it separates us from the payload and that's a last maneuver that we do 204 00:03:53,670 --> 00:03:53,680 and that's a last maneuver that we do 205 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,550 and that's a last maneuver that we do until 15 minutes after deploy when we go 206 00:03:56,550 --> 00:03:56,560 until 15 minutes after deploy when we go 207 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,110 until 15 minutes after deploy when we go ahead and do our separation from the ius 208 00:03:59,110 --> 00:03:59,120 ahead and do our separation from the ius 209 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,350 ahead and do our separation from the ius this is a shot taking out the overhead 210 00:04:01,350 --> 00:04:01,360 this is a shot taking out the overhead 211 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,869 this is a shot taking out the overhead window a close-up view of ius it's about 212 00:04:04,869 --> 00:04:04,879 window a close-up view of ius it's about 213 00:04:04,879 --> 00:04:07,030 window a close-up view of ius it's about four to five hundred feet away when we 214 00:04:07,030 --> 00:04:07,040 four to five hundred feet away when we 215 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,030 four to five hundred feet away when we finally do our burn it's about a 216 00:04:09,030 --> 00:04:09,040 finally do our burn it's about a 217 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,190 finally do our burn it's about a thousand to fifteen hundred feet away 218 00:04:11,190 --> 00:04:11,200 thousand to fifteen hundred feet away 219 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,030 thousand to fifteen hundred feet away and this is the the business end of the 220 00:04:13,030 --> 00:04:13,040 and this is the the business end of the 221 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:14,630 and this is the the business end of the ius we're looking at 222 00:04:14,630 --> 00:04:14,640 ius we're looking at 223 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,030 ius we're looking at right here inside the gold insulation is 224 00:04:17,030 --> 00:04:17,040 right here inside the gold insulation is 225 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,870 right here inside the gold insulation is the ios solid rocket motor 226 00:04:20,870 --> 00:04:20,880 the ios solid rocket motor 227 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:22,550 the ios solid rocket motor and this is when the solar rays deployed 228 00:04:22,550 --> 00:04:22,560 and this is when the solar rays deployed 229 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,790 and this is when the solar rays deployed they deployed 10 minutes after 230 00:04:24,790 --> 00:04:24,800 they deployed 10 minutes after 231 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:26,950 they deployed 10 minutes after the ius was deployed 232 00:04:26,950 --> 00:04:26,960 the ius was deployed 233 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,990 the ius was deployed in connection with the rcs system on ios 234 00:04:29,990 --> 00:04:30,000 in connection with the rcs system on ios 235 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:34,070 in connection with the rcs system on ios being activated 236 00:04:34,070 --> 00:04:34,080 237 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,310 and this is a nice shot we got we 238 00:04:36,310 --> 00:04:36,320 and this is a nice shot we got we 239 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:37,749 and this is a nice shot we got we initially thought that venus was going 240 00:04:37,749 --> 00:04:37,759 initially thought that venus was going 241 00:04:37,759 --> 00:04:39,430 initially thought that venus was going to be too close to the sun for us to 242 00:04:39,430 --> 00:04:39,440 to be too close to the sun for us to 243 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,110 to be too close to the sun for us to even see but that we didn't realize till 244 00:04:41,110 --> 00:04:41,120 even see but that we didn't realize till 245 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,110 even see but that we didn't realize till we got up there and followed several 246 00:04:43,110 --> 00:04:43,120 we got up there and followed several 247 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,990 we got up there and followed several times after sunset we could see uh venus 248 00:04:45,990 --> 00:04:46,000 times after sunset we could see uh venus 249 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,390 times after sunset we could see uh venus trailing the sun at the terminator so we 250 00:04:48,390 --> 00:04:48,400 trailing the sun at the terminator so we 251 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,110 trailing the sun at the terminator so we got a picture of venus uh sunset and 252 00:04:51,110 --> 00:04:51,120 got a picture of venus uh sunset and 253 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,110 got a picture of venus uh sunset and down in the lower portion you see some 254 00:04:53,110 --> 00:04:53,120 down in the lower portion you see some 255 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:54,390 down in the lower portion you see some of the clouds the 256 00:04:54,390 --> 00:04:54,400 of the clouds the 257 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,110 of the clouds the thunderheads that had built up 258 00:04:57,110 --> 00:04:57,120 thunderheads that had built up 259 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:58,790 thunderheads that had built up we had a mid deck experiment called a 260 00:04:58,790 --> 00:04:58,800 we had a mid deck experiment called a 261 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,710 we had a mid deck experiment called a fluid experiment apparatus which you can 262 00:05:00,710 --> 00:05:00,720 fluid experiment apparatus which you can 263 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:02,710 fluid experiment apparatus which you can see here my hands are inside of this 264 00:05:02,710 --> 00:05:02,720 see here my hands are inside of this 265 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,390 see here my hands are inside of this it's a little furnace we were growing 266 00:05:04,390 --> 00:05:04,400 it's a little furnace we were growing 267 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:05,830 it's a little furnace we were growing indium crystals 268 00:05:05,830 --> 00:05:05,840 indium crystals 269 00:05:05,840 --> 00:05:08,230 indium crystals it was really an excellent mid deck for 270 00:05:08,230 --> 00:05:08,240 it was really an excellent mid deck for 271 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:08,950 it was really an excellent mid deck for us 272 00:05:08,950 --> 00:05:08,960 us 273 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,430 us to work on we changed out samples and 274 00:05:11,430 --> 00:05:11,440 to work on we changed out samples and 275 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:12,710 to work on we changed out samples and actually interacted with the science 276 00:05:12,710 --> 00:05:12,720 actually interacted with the science 277 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,350 actually interacted with the science here's an example of crystal 278 00:05:15,350 --> 00:05:15,360 here's an example of crystal 279 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:16,790 here's an example of crystal the rougher 280 00:05:16,790 --> 00:05:16,800 the rougher 281 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:18,230 the rougher section to the right was 282 00:05:18,230 --> 00:05:18,240 section to the right was 283 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,310 section to the right was done at a lower temperature than this 284 00:05:20,310 --> 00:05:20,320 done at a lower temperature than this 285 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,469 done at a lower temperature than this striated section which was melted at a 286 00:05:22,469 --> 00:05:22,479 striated section which was melted at a 287 00:05:22,479 --> 00:05:24,790 striated section which was melted at a higher temperature so by adjusting the 288 00:05:24,790 --> 00:05:24,800 higher temperature so by adjusting the 289 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,870 higher temperature so by adjusting the wattage we could adjust the temperature 290 00:05:26,870 --> 00:05:26,880 wattage we could adjust the temperature 291 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:28,230 wattage we could adjust the temperature at which 292 00:05:28,230 --> 00:05:28,240 at which 293 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,390 at which this indium was being melted if you get 294 00:05:30,390 --> 00:05:30,400 this indium was being melted if you get 295 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,469 this indium was being melted if you get it too high it'll break if you get it 296 00:05:32,469 --> 00:05:32,479 it too high it'll break if you get it 297 00:05:32,479 --> 00:05:34,070 it too high it'll break if you get it too low it doesn't melt through so it's 298 00:05:34,070 --> 00:05:34,080 too low it doesn't melt through so it's 299 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:35,270 too low it doesn't melt through so it's sort of touching and actually the 300 00:05:35,270 --> 00:05:35,280 sort of touching and actually the 301 00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:37,430 sort of touching and actually the wattage was different on orbit than it 302 00:05:37,430 --> 00:05:37,440 wattage was different on orbit than it 303 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:38,950 wattage was different on orbit than it was 304 00:05:38,950 --> 00:05:38,960 was 305 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,270 was on the ground by about 10 watts 306 00:05:41,270 --> 00:05:41,280 on the ground by about 10 watts 307 00:05:41,280 --> 00:05:42,629 on the ground by about 10 watts we controlled it with our little 308 00:05:42,629 --> 00:05:42,639 we controlled it with our little 309 00:05:42,639 --> 00:05:44,230 we controlled it with our little experiment computer which worked great 310 00:05:44,230 --> 00:05:44,240 experiment computer which worked great 311 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:45,590 experiment computer which worked great different floppy disks for each 312 00:05:45,590 --> 00:05:45,600 different floppy disks for each 313 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,950 different floppy disks for each experimental run 314 00:05:48,950 --> 00:05:48,960 315 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:50,390 we perform a number of medical 316 00:05:50,390 --> 00:05:50,400 we perform a number of medical 317 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,390 we perform a number of medical experiments each flight 318 00:05:52,390 --> 00:05:52,400 experiments each flight 319 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,550 experiments each flight this shows mark getting censored up for 320 00:05:54,550 --> 00:05:54,560 this shows mark getting censored up for 321 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,310 this shows mark getting censored up for one such experiment which looked at some 322 00:05:56,310 --> 00:05:56,320 one such experiment which looked at some 323 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,469 one such experiment which looked at some physiologic parameters i believe like 324 00:05:58,469 --> 00:05:58,479 physiologic parameters i believe like 325 00:05:58,479 --> 00:06:00,950 physiologic parameters i believe like heart rate and that sort of thing 326 00:06:00,950 --> 00:06:00,960 heart rate and that sort of thing 327 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:02,790 heart rate and that sort of thing and in this scene you see mark and i 328 00:06:02,790 --> 00:06:02,800 and in this scene you see mark and i 329 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,189 and in this scene you see mark and i getting ready for a pre-breathe when we 330 00:06:05,189 --> 00:06:05,199 getting ready for a pre-breathe when we 331 00:06:05,199 --> 00:06:07,590 getting ready for a pre-breathe when we do space walks to avoid bends we have to 332 00:06:07,590 --> 00:06:07,600 do space walks to avoid bends we have to 333 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,590 do space walks to avoid bends we have to breathe pure oxygen for a while mark and 334 00:06:09,590 --> 00:06:09,600 breathe pure oxygen for a while mark and 335 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,430 breathe pure oxygen for a while mark and i were the space walk crew members if we 336 00:06:11,430 --> 00:06:11,440 i were the space walk crew members if we 337 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,270 i were the space walk crew members if we had to do something like that 338 00:06:13,270 --> 00:06:13,280 had to do something like that 339 00:06:13,280 --> 00:06:15,510 had to do something like that and for operational reasons to shorten 340 00:06:15,510 --> 00:06:15,520 and for operational reasons to shorten 341 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,189 and for operational reasons to shorten up that pre-breathe 342 00:06:17,189 --> 00:06:17,199 up that pre-breathe 343 00:06:17,199 --> 00:06:19,110 up that pre-breathe we like to lower the cabin pressure to 344 00:06:19,110 --> 00:06:19,120 we like to lower the cabin pressure to 345 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,350 we like to lower the cabin pressure to 10.2 psi and we plan to do that on 346 00:06:21,350 --> 00:06:21,360 10.2 psi and we plan to do that on 347 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,749 10.2 psi and we plan to do that on future flights so to test all of that 348 00:06:23,749 --> 00:06:23,759 future flights so to test all of that 349 00:06:23,759 --> 00:06:26,150 future flights so to test all of that out and see how the cabin behaved 350 00:06:26,150 --> 00:06:26,160 out and see how the cabin behaved 351 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,870 out and see how the cabin behaved we donned the helmets in the cabin and 352 00:06:28,870 --> 00:06:28,880 we donned the helmets in the cabin and 353 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,029 we donned the helmets in the cabin and we actually did the one hour pre-breathe 354 00:06:31,029 --> 00:06:31,039 we actually did the one hour pre-breathe 355 00:06:31,039 --> 00:06:32,790 we actually did the one hour pre-breathe as the cabin pressure was being lowered 356 00:06:32,790 --> 00:06:32,800 as the cabin pressure was being lowered 357 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:37,110 as the cabin pressure was being lowered from the normal 14.7 down to 10.2 psi 358 00:06:37,110 --> 00:06:37,120 from the normal 14.7 down to 10.2 psi 359 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,510 from the normal 14.7 down to 10.2 psi and i'm over there checking out and 360 00:06:39,510 --> 00:06:39,520 and i'm over there checking out and 361 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,270 and i'm over there checking out and making sure that our oxygen is actually 362 00:06:41,270 --> 00:06:41,280 making sure that our oxygen is actually 363 00:06:41,280 --> 00:06:43,430 making sure that our oxygen is actually on we also have laptop computers you can 364 00:06:43,430 --> 00:06:43,440 on we also have laptop computers you can 365 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,110 on we also have laptop computers you can see one of the ones we carry here the 366 00:06:45,110 --> 00:06:45,120 see one of the ones we carry here the 367 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,510 see one of the ones we carry here the pgsc and you can see what that screen 368 00:06:47,510 --> 00:06:47,520 pgsc and you can see what that screen 369 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,110 pgsc and you can see what that screen looks like they're very useful for 370 00:06:49,110 --> 00:06:49,120 looks like they're very useful for 371 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:50,790 looks like they're very useful for experiments and for keeping track of 372 00:06:50,790 --> 00:06:50,800 experiments and for keeping track of 373 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,390 experiments and for keeping track of where we are around the world for earth 374 00:06:52,390 --> 00:06:52,400 where we are around the world for earth 375 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,390 where we are around the world for earth observation purposes 376 00:06:54,390 --> 00:06:54,400 observation purposes 377 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,230 observation purposes this sequence tip picks up with some of 378 00:06:56,230 --> 00:06:56,240 this sequence tip picks up with some of 379 00:06:56,240 -->

of pictures and we had it seemed like all the passes we had over florida 528 00:09:48,389 --> 00:09:48,399 all the passes we had over florida 529 00:09:48,399 --> 00:09:49,829 all the passes we had over florida during the mission were like this very 530 00:09:49,829 --> 00:09:49,839 during the mission were like this very 531 00:09:49,839 --> 00:09:52,230 during the mission were like this very few clouds and it's almost like looking 532 00:09:52,230 --> 00:09:52,240 few clouds and it's almost like looking 533 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:53,750 few clouds and it's almost like looking at a map except you don't see any of the 534 00:09:53,750 --> 00:09:53,760 at a map except you don't see any of the 535 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,750 at a map except you don't see any of the boundary lines as we go to the east of 536 00:09:55,750 --> 00:09:55,760 boundary lines as we go to the east of 537 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,509 boundary lines as we go to the east of course we come to 538 00:09:57,509 --> 00:09:57,519 course we come to 539 00:09:57,519 --> 00:10:00,870 course we come to the bahamas 540 00:10:00,870 --> 00:10:00,880 541 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:05,910 a nice place for a post flight trip 542 00:10:05,910 --> 00:10:05,920 543 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,389 we uh sort of shared doing the the food 544 00:10:08,389 --> 00:10:08,399 we uh sort of shared doing the the food 545 00:10:08,399 --> 00:10:10,470 we uh sort of shared doing the the food cooking duties that whoever got 546 00:10:10,470 --> 00:10:10,480 cooking duties that whoever got 547 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:11,990 cooking duties that whoever got hungry first seemed to be the person 548 00:10:11,990 --> 00:10:12,000 hungry first seemed to be the person 549 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,150 hungry first seemed to be the person would end up cooking uh with a galley on 550 00:10:14,150 --> 00:10:14,160 would end up cooking uh with a galley on 551 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:15,190 would end up cooking uh with a galley on board i didn't have one the last one the 552 00:10:15,190 --> 00:10:15,200 board i didn't have one the last one the 553 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:16,630 board i didn't have one the last one the galley on board it made it 554 00:10:16,630 --> 00:10:16,640 galley on board it made it 555 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:18,230 galley on board it made it an awful lot easier and faster to get 556 00:10:18,230 --> 00:10:18,240 an awful lot easier and faster to get 557 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,230 an awful lot easier and faster to get meals prepared 558 00:10:20,230 --> 00:10:20,240 meals prepared 559 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,710 meals prepared but it's actually a lot easier in zero g 560 00:10:22,710 --> 00:10:22,720 but it's actually a lot easier in zero g 561 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,870 but it's actually a lot easier in zero g going up the stairs in one g you have to 562 00:10:24,870 --> 00:10:24,880 going up the stairs in one g you have to 563 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:26,630 going up the stairs in one g you have to be careful and take the trays one at a 564 00:10:26,630 --> 00:10:26,640 be careful and take the trays one at a 565 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,829 be careful and take the trays one at a time you can just grab them and float up 566 00:10:29,829 --> 00:10:29,839 time you can just grab them and float up 567 00:10:29,839 --> 00:10:31,990 time you

packaged 602 00:11:06,790 --> 00:11:06,800 re-entry escape gear that was packaged 603 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,110 re-entry escape gear that was packaged up in these bags before we unpacked them 604 00:11:09,110 --> 00:11:09,120 up in these bags before we unpacked them 605 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:10,710 up in these bags before we unpacked them you can see it took up a lot of space 606 00:11:10,710 --> 00:11:10,720 you can see it took up a lot of space 607 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:11,829 you can see it took up a lot of space down here 608 00:11:11,829 --> 00:11:11,839 down here 609 00:11:11,839 --> 00:11:13,030 down here a lot of times at work i feel like i'm 610 00:11:13,030 --> 00:11:13,040 a lot of times at work i feel like i'm 611 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:14,630 a lot of times at work i feel like i'm running around in circles and so i tried 612 00:11:14,630 --> 00:11:14,640 running around in circles and so i tried 613 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:15,990 running around in circles and so i tried actually running around in circles and 614 00:11:15,990 --> 00:11:16,000 actually running around in circles and 615 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,670 actually running around in circles and it worked up there and it was a lot of 616 00:11:17,670 --> 00:11:17,680 it worked up there and it was a lot of 617 00:11:17,680 --> 00:11:18,630 it worked up there and it was a lot of fun 618 00:11:18,630 --> 00:11:18,640 fun 619 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,310 fun there's something about zero g that 620 00:11:20,310 --> 00:11:20,320 there's something about zero g that 621 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,870 there's something about zero g that makes even adults regress we were always 622 00:11:22,870 --> 00:11:22,880 makes even adults regress we were always 623 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,190 makes even adults regress we were always told not to play with our food but the 624 00:11:25,190 --> 00:11:25,200 told not to play with our food but the 625 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:26,790 told not to play with our food but the fact is you can get such interesting 626 00:11:26,790 --> 00:11:26,800 fact is you can get such interesting 627 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:28,630 fact is you can get such interesting effects now the fish crackers that we 628 00:11:28,630 --> 00:11:28,640 effects now the fish crackers that we 629 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,470 effects now the fish crackers that we have there in the plastic bag are 630 00:11:30,470 --> 00:11:30,480 have there in the plastic bag are 631 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,230 have there in the plastic bag are primarily for eating 632 00:11:32,230 --> 00:11:32,240 primarily for eating 633 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:33,910 primarily for eating but interestingly 634 00:11:33,910 --> 00:11:33,920 but interestingly 635 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,069 but interestingly in that plastic bag they really almost 636 00:11:36,069 --> 00:11:36,079 in that plastic bag they really almost 637 00:11:36,079 --> 00:11:38,310 in that plastic bag they really almost did look like a pack of 638 00:11:38,310 --> 00:11:38,320 did look like a pack of 639 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,949 did look like a pack of live or a school of live fish 640 00:11:40,949 --> 00:11:40,959 live or a school of live fish 641 00:11:40,959 --> 00:11:42,949 live or a school of live fish ultimately however you have to remember 642 00:11:42,949 --> 00:11:42,959 ultimately however you have to remember 643 00:11:42,959 --> 00:11:46,630 ultimately however you have to remember that they're there primarily to eat 644 00:11:46,630 --> 00:11:46,640 that they're there primarily to eat 645 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,030 that they're there primarily to eat and there go a school of them and just 646 00:11:49,030 --> 00:11:49,040 and there go a school of them and just 647 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:50,870 and there go a school of them and just like predator fish 648 00:11:50,870 --> 00:11:50,880 like predator fish 649 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:54,069 like predator fish you can't resist 650 00:11:54,069 --> 00:11:54,079 651 00:11:54,079 --> 00:11:55,190 and then you've got the problem of 652 00:11:55,190 --> 00:11:55,200 and then you've got the problem of 653 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:56,389 and then you've got the problem of course of getting those things out of 654 00:11:56,389 --> 00:11:56,399 course of getting those things out of 655 00:11:56,399 --> 00:11:59,590 course of getting those things out of the air before they drift off 656 00:11:59,590 --> 00:11:59,600 the air before they drift off 657 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,829 the air before they drift off and we'll introduce the crew ron gravy 658 00:12:03,829 --> 00:12:03,839 and we'll introduce the crew ron gravy 659 00:12:03,839 --> 00:12:05,910 and we'll introduce the crew ron gravy and then having some difficulty getting 660 00:12:05,910 --> 00:12:05,920 and then having some difficulty getting 661 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,590 and then having some difficulty getting through there as he's tangled up in all 662 00:12:07,590 --> 00:12:07,600 through there as he's tangled up in all 663 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,670 through there as he's tangled up in all the wires and cords that inevitably seem 664

is a real good 700 00:12:56,389 --> 00:12:56,399 the computer and this is a real good 701 00:12:56,399 --> 00:12:58,550 the computer and this is a real good shot in the avionics bay where we had to 702 00:12:58,550 --> 00:12:58,560 shot in the avionics bay where we had to 703 00:12:58,560 --> 00:13:01,190 shot in the avionics bay where we had to work it was pretty type of being in zero 704 00:13:01,190 --> 00:13:01,200 work it was pretty type of being in zero 705 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:01,910 work it was pretty type of being in zero g 706 00:13:01,910 --> 00:13:01,920 g 707 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:03,509 g there were no real pressure points so it 708 00:13:03,509 --> 00:13:03,519 there were no real pressure points so it 709 00:13:03,519 --> 00:13:04,949 there were no real pressure points so it was pretty easy to stay in there for a 710 00:13:04,949 --> 00:13:04,959 was pretty easy to stay in there for a 711 00:13:04,959 --> 00:13:07,030 was pretty easy to stay in there for a

then we hooked 756 00:13:45,110 --> 00:13:45,120 once they were in place then we hooked 757 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:46,550 once they were in place then we hooked up all the electrical connectors we 758 00:13:46,550 --> 00:13:46,560 up all the electrical connectors we 759 00:13:46,560 --> 00:13:48,389 up all the electrical connectors we powered it up and the computer worked 760 00:13:48,389 --> 00:13:48,399 powered it up and the computer worked 761 00:13:48,399 --> 00:13:49,990 powered it up and the computer worked great 762 00:13:49,990 --> 00:13:50,000 great 763 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:51,910 great after getting the computer replaced we 764 00:13:51,910 --> 00:13:51,920 after getting the computer replaced we 765 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,750 after getting the computer replaced we got a good night's sleep got up the next 766 00:13:53,750 --> 00:13:53,760 got a good night's sleep got up the next 767 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,150 got a good night's sleep got up the next day suited up to come home 768 00:13:56,150 --> 00:13:56,160 day suited up to come home 769 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:57,750 day suited up to come home this is just a little demo of how that 770 00:13:57,750 --> 00:13:57,760 this is just a little demo of how that 771 00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:59,030 this is just a little demo of how that can be done 772 00:13:59,030 --> 00:13:59,040 can be done 773 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:00,790 can be done and it's fairly easy to get in and out 774 00:14:00,790 --> 00:14:00,800 and it's fairly easy to get in and out 775 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:02,389 and it's fairly easy to get in and out of the suit in zero gravity although it 776 00:14:02,389 --> 00:14:02,399 of the suit in zero gravity although it 777 00:14:02,399 --> 00:14:04,230 of the suit in zero gravity although it isn't all that comfortable to wear 778 00:14:04,230 --> 00:14:04,240 isn't all that comfortable to wear 779 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,710 isn't all that comfortable to wear and then we started downhill on schedule 780 00:14:06,710 --> 00:14:06,720 and then we started downhill on schedule 781 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,590 and then we started downhill on schedule this is a picture of plasma interaction 782 00:14:09,590 --> 00:14:09,600 this is a picture of plasma interaction 783 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,110 this is a picture of plasma interaction around the orbiter which mark was able 784 00:14:11,110 --> 00:14:11,120 around the orbiter which mark was able 785 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:12,550 around the orbiter which mark was able to get with the camcorder some 786 00:14:12,550 --> 00:14:12,560 to get with the camcorder some 787 00:14:12,560 --> 00:14:14,790 to get with the camcorder some spectacular photography there of the 788 00:14:14,790 --> 00:14:14,800 spectacular photography there of the 789 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:20,389 spectacular photography there of the plasma sheath discharging 790 00:14:20,389 --> 00:14:20,399 791 00:14:20,399 --> 00:14:23,110 this is pretty rare photos then 792 00:14:23,110 --> 00:14:23,120 this is pretty rare photos then 793 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:24,710 this is pretty rare photos then you can see out the window again with 794 00:14:24,710 --> 00:14:24,720 you can see out the window again with 795 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:26,710 you can see out the window again with the same camcorder 796 00:14:26,710 --> 00:14:26,720 the same camcorder 797 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:28,870 the same camcorder the earth horizon as we do the roll 798 00:14:28,870 --> 00:14:28,880 the earth horizon as we do the roll 799 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:30,790 the earth horizon as we do the roll maneuvers that allow us to 800 00:14:30,790 --> 00:14:30,800 maneuvers that allow us to 801 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,670 maneuvers that allow us to guide ourselves down the reentry track 802 00:14:33,670 --> 00:14:33,680 guide ourselves down the reentry track 803 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:35,430 guide ourselves down the reentry track all of this went very smoothly there's a 804 00:14:35,430 --> 00:14:35,440 all of this went very smoothly there's a 805 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:36,470 all of this went very smoothly there's a little bit of 806 00:14:36,470 --> 00:14:36,480 little bit of 807 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:38,069 little bit of high mock buffet and you can see that 808 00:14:38,069 --> 00:14:38,079 high mock buffet and you can see that 809 00:14:38,079 --> 00:14:40,389 high mock buffet and you can see that reflected in the slight 810 00:14:40,389 --> 00:14:40,399 reflected in the slight 811 00:14:40,399 --> 00:14:41,670 reflected in the slight shaking 812 00:14:41,670 --> 00:14:41,680 shaking 813 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:42,949 shaking of the camera 814 00:14:42,949 --> 00:14:42,959 of the camera 815 00:14:42,959 --> 00:14:44,790 of the camera i said i said mark actually i think mary 816 00:14:44,790 --> 00:14:44,800 i said i said mark actually i think mary 817 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,629 i said i said mark actually i think mary was taking all of these 818 00:14:46,629 --> 00:14:46,639 was taking all of these 819 00:14:46,639 --> 00:14:50,310 was taking all of these mark took the photos uphill 820 00:14:50,310 --> 00:14:50,320 mark took the photos uphill 821 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,870 mark took the photos uphill and then finally back at edwards 822 00:14:52,870 --> 00:14:52,880 and then finally back at edwards 823 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:54,629 and then finally back at edwards ron flew a little bit after we went 824 00:14:54,629 --> 00:14:54,639 ron flew a little bit after we went 825 00:14:54,639 --> 00:14:56,150 ron flew a little bit after we went subsonic and then i took it for the 826 00:14:56,150 --> 00:14:56,160 subsonic and then i took it for the 827 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:57,509 subsonic and then i took it for the landing 828 00:14:57,509 --> 00:14:57,519 landing 829 00:14:57,519 --> 00:14:59,350 landing it was very smooth all the way down 830 00:14:59,350 --> 00:14:59,360 it was very smooth all the way down 831 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:00,949 it was very smooth all the way down until we got close 832 00:15:00,949 --> 00:15:00,959 until we got close 833 00:15:00,959 --> 00:15:02,870 until we got close uh relatively close the last few 834 00:15:02,870 --> 00:15:02,880 uh relatively close the last few 835 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:04,710 uh relatively close the last few thousand feet when the turbulence and 836 00:15:04,710 --> 00:15:04,720 thousand feet when the turbulence and 837 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,670 thousand feet when the turbulence and the crosswinds which we had expected 838 00:15:07,670 --> 00:15:07,680 the crosswinds which we had expected 839 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,230 the crosswinds which we had expected since we were trying to get a crosswind 840 00:15:10,230 --> 00:15:10,240 since we were trying to get a crosswind 841 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,870 since we were trying to get a crosswind developmental test objective done 842 00:15:12,870 --> 00:15:12,880 developmental test objective done 843 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:13,829 developmental test objective done became 844 00:15:13,829 --> 00:15:13,839 became 845 00:15:13,839 --> 00:15:15,750 became obvious the orbiter flies very well 846 00:15:15,750 --> 00:15:15,760 obvious the orbiter flies very well 847 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:17,189 obvious the orbiter flies very well through that sort of conditions here's 848 00:15:17,189 --> 00:15:17,199 through that sort of conditions here's 849 00:15:17,199 --> 00:15:19,350 through that sort of conditions here's another picture out the side window 850 00:15:19,350 --> 00:15:19,360 another picture out the side window 851 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,990 another picture out the side window as we come down 852 00:15:21,990 --> 00:15:22,000 as we come down 853 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:23,269 as we come down we 854 00:15:23,269 --> 00:15:23,279 we 855 00:15:23,279 --> 00:15:25,110 we had no difficulty 856 00:15:25,110 --> 00:15:25,120 had no difficulty 857 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,829 had no difficulty approaching the runway 858 00:15:27,829 --> 00:15:27,839 approaching the runway 859 00:15:27,839 --> 00:15:31,030 approaching the runway some mild compensation for the crosswind 860 00:15:31,030 --> 00:15:31,040 some mild compensation for the crosswind 861 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,189 some mild compensation for the crosswind and then as you'll see lands pretty 862 00:15:33,189 --> 00:15:33,199 and then as you'll see lands pretty 863 00:15:33,199 --> 00:15:36,230 and then as you'll see lands pretty smoothly 864 00:15:36,230 --> 00:15:36,240 865 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,629 ron is going to do the most important 866 00:15:38,629 --> 00:15:38,639 ron is going to do the most important 867 00:15:38,639 --> 00:15:39,590 ron is going to do the most important job 868 00:15:39,590 --> 00:15:39,600 job 869 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,030 job that he has to do in the flight here in 870 00:15:41,030 --> 00:15:41,040 that he has to do in the flight here in 871 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:42,389 that he has to do in the flight here in just a second which is to lower the 872 00:15:42,389 --> 00:15:42,399 just a second which is to lower the 873 00:15:42,399 --> 00:15:44,389 just a second which is to lower the landing gear 874 00:15:44,389 --> 00:15:44,399 landing gear 875 00:15:44,399 --> 00:15:49,509 landing gear which we're very appreciative 876 00:15:49,509 --> 00:15:49,519 877 00:15:49,519 --> 00:15:51,350 because we switched runways late in the 878 00:15:51,350 --> 00:15:51,360 because we switched runways late in the 879 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,350 because we switched runways late in the game we don't have as good a 880 00:15:53,350 --> 00:15:53,360 game we don't have as good a 881 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:54,949 game we don't have as good a photographic coverage of the landing as 882 00:15:54,949 --> 00:15:54,959 photographic coverage of the landing as 883 00:15:54,959 --> 00:15:57,189 photographic coverage of the landing as we usually do but it's still adequate to 884 00:15:57,189 --> 00:15:57,199 we usually do but it's still adequate to 885 00:15:57,199 --> 00:15:59,990 we usually do but it's still adequate to see that the orbiter's flying well 886 00:15:59,990 --> 00:16:00,000 see that the orbiter's flying well 887 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,829 see that the orbiter's flying well on touchdown the crosswind becomes more 888 00:16:01,829 --> 00:16:01,839 on touchdown the crosswind becomes more 889 00:16:01,839 --> 00:16:03,590 on touchdown the crosswind becomes more evident and requires more compensation 890 00:16:03,590 --> 00:16:03,600 evident and requires more compensation 891 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:10,069 evident and requires more compensation but still it's quite safely flyable 892 00:16:10,069 --> 00:16:10,079 893 00:16:10,079 --> 00:16:11,189 we had a 894 00:16:11,189 --> 00:16:11,199 we had a 895 00:16:11,199 --> 00:16:13,269 we had a smooth soft touchdown a little bit of 896 00:16:13,269 --> 00:16:13,279 smooth soft touchdown a little bit of 897 00:16:13,279 --> 00:16:14,949 smooth soft touchdown a little bit of drift left and then back to the center 898 00:16:14,949 --> 00:16:14,959 drift left and then back to the center 899 00:16:14,959 --> 00:16:15,749 drift left and then back to the center line 900 00:16:15,749 --> 00:16:15,759 line 901 00:16:15,759 --> 00:16:18,629 line rolled out about 10 000 feet 902 00:16:18,629 --> 00:16:18,639 rolled out about 10 000 feet 903 00:16:18,639 --> 00:16:20,230 rolled out about 10 000 feet and stopped 904 00:16:20,230 --> 00:16:20,240 and stopped 905 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,269 and stopped without difficulty 906 00:16:23,269 --> 00:16:23,279 without difficulty 907 00:16:23,279 --> 00:16:25,189 without difficulty and after having gotten out of our 908 00:16:25,189 --> 00:16:25,199 and after having gotten out of our 909 00:16:25,199 --> 00:16:26,949 and after having gotten out of our launch escape suits and cleaned up a 910 00:16:26,949 --> 00:16:26,959 launch escape suits and cleaned up a 911 00:16:26,959 --> 00:16:28,629 launch escape suits and cleaned up a little bit we're ready to come back to 912 00:16:28,629 --> 00:16:28,639 little bit we're ready to come back to 913 00:16:28,639 --> 00:16:29,509 little bit we're ready to come back to earth 914 00:16:29,509 --> 00:16:29,519 earth 915 00:16:29,519 --> 00:16:30,550 earth where uh 916 00:16:30,550 --> 00:16:30,560 where uh 917 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,030 where uh dale myers and dick truly were waiting 918 00:16:33,030 --> 00:16:33,040 dale myers and dick truly were waiting 919 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:34,790 dale myers and dick truly were waiting to greet us and where we could take a 920 00:16:34,790 --> 00:16:34,800 to greet us and where we could take a 921 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:36,069 to greet us and where we could take a look at the orbiter and make sure that 922 00:16:36,069 --> 00:16:36,079 look at the orbiter and make sure that 923 00:16:36,079 --> 00:16:37,670 look at the orbiter and make sure that it was indeed in as good a shape as we 924 00:16:37,670 --> 00:16:37,680 it was indeed in as good a shape as we 925 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:39,269 it was indeed in as good a shape as we had hoped looked fine 926 00:16:39,269 --> 00:16:39,279 had hoped looked fine 927 00:16:39,279 --> 00:16:41,269 had hoped looked fine and we were happy to be back 928 00:16:41,269 --> 00:16:41,279 and we were happy to be back 929 00:16:41,279 --> 00:16:44,150 and we were happy to be back after what was very exciting although to 930 00:16:44,150 --> 00:16:44,160 after what was very exciting although to 931 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:45,829 after what was very exciting although to our mind too short of flight we would 932 00:16:45,829 --> 00:16:45,839 our mind too short of flight we would 933 00:16:45,839 --> 00:16:48,310 our mind too short of flight we would have been happy to to stay longer 934 00:16:48,310 --> 00:16:48,320 have been happy to to stay longer 935 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,150 have been happy to to stay longer and we'll be happy to go back when the 936 00:16:50,150 --> 00:16:50,160 and we'll be happy to go back when the 937 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:54,279 and we'll be happy to go back when the next opportunity presents itself
