00:01:00,389 --> 00:01:00,399 in space as a as a flexible element 47 00:01:00,399 --> 00:01:04,149 in space as a as a flexible element as the person who's able to 48 00:01:04,149 --> 00:01:04,159 49 00:01:04,159 --> 00:01:06,149 do troubleshooting 50 00:01:06,149 --> 00:01:06,159 do troubleshooting 51 00:01:06,159 --> 00:01:08,070 do troubleshooting to continue on 52 00:01:08,070 --> 00:01:08,080 to continue on 53 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:10,550 to continue on with manual control after 54 00:01:10,550 --> 00:01:10,560 with manual control after 55 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:12,469 with manual control after automatic systems 56 00:01:12,469 --> 00:01:12,479 automatic systems 57 00:01:12,479 --> 00:01:14,390 automatic systems have failed to perform like we thought 58 00:01:14,390 --> 00:01:14,400 have failed to perform like we thought 59 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,149 have failed to perform like we thought they would 60 00:01:16,149 --> 00:01:16,159 they would 61 00:01:16,159 --> 00:01:17,590 they would so 62 00:01:17,590 --> 00:01:17,600 so 63 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:21,109 so i i was just very pleased that 64 00:01:21,109 --> 00:01:21,119 i i was just very pleased that 65 00:01:21,119 --> 00:01:23,910 i i was just very pleased that we had those capabilities on board 66 00:01:23,910 --> 00:01:23,920 we had those capabilities on board 67 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,469 we had those capabilities on board to use man as a flexible 68 00:01:26,469 --> 00:01:26,479 to use man as a flexible 69 00:01:26,479 --> 00:01:28,149 to use man as a flexible element 70 00:01:28,149 --> 00:01:28,159 element 71 00:01:28,159 --> 00:01:30,550 element finally and most important i think our 72 00:01:30,550 --> 00:01:30,560 finally and most important i think our 73 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,510 finally and most important i think our mission really demonstrated teamwork 74 00:01:33,510 --> 00:01:33,520 mission really demonstrated teamwork 75 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,749 mission really demonstrated teamwork people on the ground here really got 76 00:01:35,749 --> 00:01:35,759 people on the ground here really got 77 00:01:35,759 --> 00:01:39,190 people on the ground here really got with it after we had some space lab 78 00:01:39,190 --> 00:01:39,200 with it after we had some space lab 79 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,350 with it after we had some space lab failures and 80 00:01:41,350 --> 00:01:41,360 failures and 81 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:42,950 failures and they came up with ways for us to 82 00:01:42,950 --> 00:01:42,960 they came up with ways for us to 83 00:01:42,960 --> 00:01:46,230 they came up with ways for us to continue and in the end 84 00:01:46,230 --> 00:01:46,240 continue and in the end 85 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,469 continue and in the end through manual pointing i think our 86 00:01:48,469 --> 00:01:48,479 through manual pointing i think our 87 00:01:48,479 --> 00:01:51,590 through manual pointing i think our astronomers were 88 00:01:51,590 --> 00:01:51,600 89 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,749 approaching if not equaling 90 00:01:53,749 --> 00:01:53,759 approaching if not equaling 91 00:01:53,759 --> 00:01:54,630 approaching if not equaling the 92 00:01:54,630 --> 00:01:54,640 the 93 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,310 the capabilities of 94 00:01:56,310 --> 00:01:56,320 capabilities of 95 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:57,990 capabilities of the automatic systems that would have 96 00:01:57,990 --> 00:01:58,000 the automatic systems that would have 97 00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,590 the automatic systems that would have controlled the pointing of the 98 00:01:59,590 --> 00:01:59,600 controlled the pointing of the 99 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,109 controlled the pointing of the telescopes 100 00:02:01,109 -->

they say they're spectacular to watch but it certainly is 212 00:04:13,350 --> 00:04:13,360 spectacular to watch but it certainly is 213 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,990 spectacular to watch but it certainly is spectacular to watch from inside as well 214 00:04:15,990 --> 00:04:16,000 spectacular to watch from inside as well 215 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,310 spectacular to watch from inside as well we managed to launch with almost a full 216 00:04:18,310 --> 00:04:18,320 we managed to launch with almost a full 217 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,069 we managed to launch with almost a full moon and here's a beautiful shot of us 218 00:04:20,069 --> 00:04:20,079 moon and here's a beautiful shot of us 219 00:04:20,079 --> 00:04:22,390 moon and here's a beautiful shot of us going right by the moon 220 00:04:22,390 --> 00:04:22,400 going right by the moon 221 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,430 going right by the moon there was a cloud deck at about 7000 222 00:04:25,430 --> 00:04:25,440 there was a cloud deck at about 7000 223 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:26,710 there was a cloud deck at about 7000 feet 224 00:04:26,710 --> 00:04:26,720 feet 225 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,310 feet which you'll see us light up here as we 226 00:04:28,310 --> 00:04:28,320 which you'll see us light up here as we 227 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:29,830 which you'll see us light up here as we go through it it was really spectacular 228 00:04:29,830 --> 00:04:29,840 go through it it was really spectacular 229 00:04:29,840 --> 00:04:31,110 go through it it was really spectacular look out the windows and watch that 230 00:04:31,110 --> 00:04:31,120 look out the windows and watch that 231 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,350 look out the windows and watch that approach 232 00:04:33,350 --> 00:04:33,360 approach 233 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,350 approach after two minutes the srbs have consumed 234 00:04:35,350 --> 00:04:35,360 after two minutes the srbs have consumed 235 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,270 after two minutes the srbs have consumed their fuel and we jettison them little 236 00:04:37,270 --> 00:04:37,280 their fuel and we jettison them little 237 00:04:37,280 --> 00:04:39,110 their fuel and we jettison them little rockets fire to push them away from the 238 00:04:39,110 --> 00:04:39,120 rockets fire to push them away from the 239 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,510 rockets fire to push them away from the orbiter 240 00:04:41,510 --> 00:04:41,520 orbiter 241 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:43,189 orbiter and we continue to burn the main engines 242 00:04:43,189 --> 00:04:43,199 and we continue to burn the main engines 243 00:04:43,199 --> 00:04:44,550 and we continue to burn the main engines for a total of about eight and a half 244 00:04:44,550 --> 00:04:44,560 for a total of about eight and a half 245 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,189 for a total of about eight and a half minutes which gets us up to over 17 000 246 00:04:47,189 --> 00:04:47,199 minutes which gets us up to over 17 000 247 00:04:47,199 --> 00:04:48,710 minutes which gets us up to over 17 000 miles an hour and we're up in orbit 248 00:04:48,710 --> 00:04:48,720 miles an hour and we're up in orbit 249 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,189 miles an hour and we're up in orbit around the earth 250 00:04:51,189 --> 00:04:51,199 around the earth 251 00:04:51,199 --> 00:04:52,469 around the earth here we are 252 00:04:52,469 --> 00:04:52,479 here we are 253 00:04:52,479 --> 00:04:53,990 here we are finally in orbit about an hour after 254 00:04:53,990 --> 00:04:54,000 finally in orbit about an hour after 255 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,830 finally in orbit about an hour after launch with a second burn having put us 256 00:04:55,830 --> 00:04:55,840 launch with a second burn having put us 257 00:04:55,840 --> 00:04:57,510 launch with a second burn having put us into a circular orbit 258 00:04:57,510 --> 00:04:57,520 into a circular orbit 259 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,909 into a circular orbit going into the orbit to do astronomy has 260 00:04:59,909 --> 00:04:59,919 going into the orbit to do astronomy has 261 00:04:59,919 --> 00:05:01,270 going into the orbit to do astronomy has two benefits one of course is you get 262 00:05:01,270 --> 00:05:01,280 two benefits one of course is you get 263 00:05:01,280 --> 00:05:03,030 two benefits one of course is you get you above your clouds but that's not the 264 00:05:03,030 --> 00:05:03,040 you above your clouds but that's not the 265 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:04,469 you above your clouds but that's not the primary one the primary one is to get 266 00:05:04,469 --> 00:05:04,479 primary one the primary one is to get 267 00:05:04,479 --> 00:05:06,710 primary one the primary one is to get above the atmosphere itself you see a 268 00:05:06,710 --> 00:05:06,720 above the atmosphere itself you see a 269 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:08,950 above the atmosphere itself you see a series of layers of atmosphere sitting 270 00:05:08,950 --> 00:05:08,960 series of layers of atmosphere sitting 271 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,550 series of layers of atmosphere sitting above this rather pretty sunset 272 00:05:12,550 --> 00:05:12,560 273 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,029 one of the first things we do on orbit 274 00:05:15,029 --> 00:05:15,039 one of the first things we do on orbit 275 00:05:15,039 --> 00:05:17,029 one of the first things we do on orbit is to begin the opening the payload bay 276 00:05:17,029 --> 00:05:17,039 is to begin the opening the payload bay 277 00:05:17,039 --> 00:05:19,110 is to begin the opening the payload bay doors this not only exposes the payload 278 00:05:19,110 --> 00:05:19,120 doors this not only exposes the payload 279 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,189 doors this not only exposes the payload so the telescopes can see the stars we 280 00:05:21,189 --> 00:05:21,199 so the telescopes can see the stars we 281 00:05:21,199 --> 00:05:22,390 so the telescopes can see the stars we came to observe 282 00:05:22,390 --> 00:05:22,400 came to observe 283 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,230 came to observe but also the inner surface of the doors 284 00:05:24,230 --> 00:05:24,240 but also the inner surface of the doors 285 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:25,830 but also the inner surface of the doors are radiators and allows us to start 286 00:05:25,830 --> 00:05:25,840 are radiators and allows us to start 287 00:05:25,840 --> 00:05:27,590 are radiators and allows us to start cooling the vehicle 288 00:05:27,590 --> 00:05:27,600 cooling the vehicle 289 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,350 cooling the vehicle once that's accomplished we began 290 00:05:29,350 --> 00:05:29,360 once that's accomplished we began 291 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,350 once that's accomplished we began activating first the space lab itself 292 00:05:31,350 --> 00:05:31,360 activating first the space lab itself 293 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,029 activating first the space lab itself with its computers that help us control 294 00:05:33,029 --> 00:05:33,039 with its computers that help us control 295 00:05:33,039 --> 00:05:34,790 with its computers that help us control things 296 00:05:34,790 --> 00:05:34,800 things 297 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:36,550 things in the payload bay here you can see some 298 00:05:36,550 --> 00:05:36,560 in the payload bay here you can see some 299 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,150 in the payload bay here you can see some of the elements of our payload first of 300 00:05:38,150 --> 00:05:38,160 of the elements of our payload first of 301 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,350 of the elements of our payload first of all the x-ray telescope in the far back 302 00:05:41,350 --> 00:05:41,360 all the x-ray telescope in the far back 303 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:42,790 all the x-ray telescope in the far back from the goddard space center and then 304 00:05:42,790 --> 00:05:42,800 from the goddard space center and then 305 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,430 from the goddard space center and then here parts of the space lab which was in 306 00:05:45,430 --> 00:05:45,440 here parts of the space lab which was in 307 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,270 here parts of the space lab which was in fact produced 308 00:05:47,270 --> 00:05:47,280 fact produced 309 00:05:47,280 --> 00:05:50,710 fact produced in concert with us by the europeans 310 00:05:50,710 --> 00:05:50,720 in concert with us by the europeans 311 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:52,310 in concert with us by the europeans they activated the space lab we 312 00:05:52,310 --> 00:05:52,320 they activated the space lab we 313 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,070 they activated the space lab we proceeded on then to 314 00:05:54,070 --> 00:05:54,080 proceeded on then to 315 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,950 proceeded on then to uh activate the ips itself 316 00:05:56,950 --> 00:05:56,960 uh activate the ips itself 317 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,189 uh activate the ips itself with its three large telescopes in fact 318 00:05:59,189 --> 00:05:59,199 with its three large telescopes in fact 319 00:05:59,199 --> 00:06:00,790 with its three large telescopes in fact once this uh 320 00:06:00,790 --> 00:06:00,800 once this uh 321 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,469 once this uh platform with the telescopes was erected 322 00:06:02,469 --> 00:06:02,479 platform with the telescopes was erected 323 00:06:02,479 --> 00:06:04,070 platform with the telescopes was erected that's about the last we saw of the 324 00:06:04,070 --> 00:06:04,080 that's about the last we saw of the 325 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,390 that's about the last we saw of the x-ray telescope which is hidden 326 00:06:06,390 --> 00:06:06,400 x-ray telescope which is hidden 327 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:07,830 x-ray telescope which is hidden behind this much larger array of 328 00:06:07,830 --> 00:06:07,840 behind this much larger array of 329 00:06:07,840 --> 00:06:13,590 behind this much larger array of telescopes 330 00:06:13,590 --> 00:06:13,600 331 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,430 with the 332

00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:19,430 telescopes erected pointing out the bay towards space 336 00:06:19,430 --> 00:06:19,440 towards space 337 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,110 towards space we're now in a position to begin 338 00:06:21,110 --> 00:06:21,120 we're now in a position to begin 339 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,430 we're now in a position to begin observing uh first with the orbiter crew 340 00:06:23,430 --> 00:06:23,440 observing uh first with the orbiter crew 341 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:24,710 observing uh first with the orbiter crew positioning the orbiter you can actually 342 00:06:24,710 --> 00:06:24,720 positioning the orbiter you can actually 343 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,950 positioning the orbiter you can actually see a little jet firing here on on that 344 00:06:26,950 --> 00:06:26,960 see a little jet firing here on on that 345 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:28,550 see a little jet firing here on on that frame right there 346 00:06:28,550 --> 00:06:28,560 frame right there 347 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,350 frame right there once the orbiter crew gets the orbiter 348 00:06:31,350 --> 00:06:31,360 once the orbiter crew gets the orbiter 349 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,230 once the orbiter crew gets the orbiter pointed in the proper direction then the 350 00:06:34,230 --> 00:06:34,240 pointed in the proper direction then the 351 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:35,749 pointed in the proper direction then the mission specialist 352 00:06:35,749 --> 00:06:35,759 mission specialist 353 00:06:35,759 --> 00:06:38,870 mission specialist could in our case begin pointing the ips 354 00:06:38,870 --> 00:06:38,880 could in our case begin pointing the ips 355 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:39,990 could in our case begin pointing the ips the pointing system that had the 356 00:06:39,990 --> 00:06:40,000 the pointing system that had the 357 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:41,990 the pointing system that had the telescopes begin pointing it more 358 00:06:41,990 --> 00:06:42,000 telescopes begin pointing it more 359 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,909 telescopes begin pointing it more precisely sort of fine-tuning towards 360 00:06:43,909 --> 00:06:43,919 precisely sort of fine-tuning towards 361 00:06:43,919 --> 00:06:46,150 precisely sort of fine-tuning towards the exact star galaxy we're working on 362 00:06:46,150 --> 00:06:46,160 the exact star galaxy we're working on 363 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,230 the exact star galaxy we're working on we had troubles with the uh with the 364 00:06:48,230 --> 00:06:48,240 we had troubles with the uh with the 365 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:49,909 we had troubles with the uh with the automatic star trackers doing that and 366 00:06:49,909 --> 00:06:49,919 automatic star trackers doing that and 367 00:06:49,919 --> 00:06:51,430 automatic star trackers doing that and we resorted to what we call the 368 00:06:51,430 --> 00:06:51,440 we resorted to what we call the 369 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,430 we resorted to what we call the old-fashioned method of hand guiding 370 00:06:53,430 --> 00:06:53,440 old-fashioned method of hand guiding 371 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:54,710 old-fashioned method of hand guiding this was done with a lot of help from 372 00:06:54,710 --> 00:06:54,720 this was done with a lot of help from 373 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:56,950 this was done with a lot of help from the ground which ron will talk about 374 00:06:56,950 --> 00:06:56,960 the ground which ron will talk about 375 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,629 the ground which ron will talk about one of the really great things that 376 00:06:58,629 --> 00:06:58,639 one of the really great things that 377 00:06:58,639 --> 00:07:00,070 one of the really great things that happened this mission was to watch 378 00:07:00,070 -->

our efficiency was getting up to the point 402 00:07:29,350 --> 00:07:29,360 efficiency was getting up to the point 403 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,430 efficiency was getting up to the point where we were observing just as many 404 00:07:31,430 --> 00:07:31,440 where we were observing just as many 405 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,749 where we were observing just as many targets if as if we had 406 00:07:33,749 --> 00:07:33,759 targets if as if we had 407 00:07:33,759 --> 00:07:39,110 targets if as if we had had not had the failures 408 00:07:39,110 --> 00:07:39,120 409 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,430 so we were we and the scientists also 410 00:07:41,430 --> 00:07:41,440 so we were we and the scientists also 411 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:48,629 so we were we and the scientists also were quite pleased with that 412 00:07:48,629 --> 00:07:48,639 413 00:07:48,639 --> 00:07:50,870 we were divided into two teams a red 414 00:07:50,870 --> 00:07:50,880 we were divided into two teams a red 415 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:52,870 we were divided into two teams a red team and a blue team this is the blue 416 00:07:52,870 --> 00:07:52,880 team and a blue team this is the blue 417 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,150 team and a blue team this is the blue team getting out of bed in the morning 418 00:07:54,150 --> 00:07:54,160 team getting out of bed in the morning 419 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:55,510 team getting out of bed in the morning ready to go to work 420 00:07:55,510 --> 00:07:55,520 ready to go to work 421 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,189 ready to go to work we tried to maintain a lot of discipline 422 00:07:57,189 --> 00:07:57,199 we tried to maintain a lot of discipline 423 00:07:57,199 --> 00:07:59,430 we tried to maintain a lot of discipline and do everything by the numbers so 424 00:07:59,430 --> 00:07:59,440 and do everything by the numbers so 425 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,990 and do everything by the numbers so we're going to work by the numbers here 426 00:08:01,990 --> 00:08:02,000 we're going to work by the numbers here 427 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:06,070 we're going to work by the numbers here floating out of our sleep stations 428 00:08:06,070 --> 00:08:06,080 429 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,550 it was a little crowded down there 430 00:08:08,550 --> 00:08:08,560 it was a little crowded down there 431 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,070 it was a little crowded down there these wide-angle views make it seem 432 00:08:10,070 --> 00:08:10,080 these wide-angle views make it seem 433 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,309 these wide-angle views make it seem bigger than it was 434 00:08:12,309 --> 00:08:12,319 bigger than it was 435 00:08:12,319 --> 00:08:14,070 bigger than it was it's always fun to experiment in 436 00:08:14,070 --> 00:08:14,080 it's always fun to experiment in 437 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:15,830 it's always fun to experiment in weightlessness with 438 00:08:15,830 --> 00:08:15,840 weightlessness with 439 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:17,830 weightlessness with things like bubbles of water here and 440 00:08:17,830 --> 00:08:17,840 things like bubbles of water here and 441 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,790 things like bubbles of water here and and observe the dynamics of that 442 00:08:20,790 --> 00:08:20,800 and observe the dynamics of that 443 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:28,309 and observe the dynamics of that free-floating fluid 444 00:08:28,309 --> 00:08:28,319 445 00:08:28,319 --> 00:08:42,949 jeff was a little thirsty i guess 446 00:08:42,949 --> 00:08:42,959 447 00:08:42,959 --> 00:08:44,870 meal time is very important a chance to 448 00:08:44,870 --> 00:08:44,880 meal time is very important a chance to 449 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,070 meal time is very important a chance to relax and recap the events of the day 450 00:08:48,070 --> 00:08:48,080 relax and recap the events of the day 451 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,870 relax and recap the events of the day and play with your food a little bit the 452 00:08:50,870 --> 00:08:50,880 and play with your food a little bit the 453 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:52,710 and play with your food a little bit the school kids we show these two always 454 00:08:52,710 --> 00:08:52,720 school kids we show these two always 455 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,470 school kids we show these two always like those scenes 456 00:08:54,470 --> 00:08:54,480 like those scenes 457 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,630 like those scenes some more fluid dynamics experiments 458 00:08:58,630 --> 00:08:58,640 some more fluid dynamics experiments 459 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:00,230 some more fluid dynamics experiments hygiene is very important we 460 00:09:00,230 --> 00:09:00,240 hygiene is very important we 461 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:11,430 hygiene is very important we occasionally took 462 00:09:11,430 --> 00:09:11,440 463 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,269 where does that water go 464 00:09:13,269 --> 00:09:13,279 where does that water go 465 00:09:13,279 --> 00:09:14,949 where does that water go just living in the spaceship creates a 466 00:09:14,949 --> 00:09:14,959 just living in the spaceship creates a 467 00:09:14,959 --> 00:09:16,949 just living in the spaceship creates a lot of wastewater of course 468 00:09:16,949 --> 00:09:16,959 lot of wastewater of course 469 00:09:16,959 --> 00:09:18,790 lot of wastewater of course and normally that's held in a storage 470 00:09:18,790 --> 00:09:18,800 and normally that's held in a storage 471 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,630 and normally that's held in a storage tank and every day or so 472 00:09:20,630 --> 00:09:20,640 tank and every day or so 473 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,389 tank and every day or so we dump that out into space which is 474 00:09:22,389 --> 00:09:22,399 we dump that out into space which is 475 00:09:22,399 --> 00:09:24,070 we dump that out into space which is really a gorgeous site if you get the 476 00:09:24,070 --> 00:09:24,080 really a gorgeous site if you get the 477 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,150 really a gorgeous site if you get the sun angle just right 478 00:09:26,150 --> 00:09:26,160 sun angle just right 479 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,310 sun angle just right it looks like a snow storm or a blizzard 480 00:09:28,310 --> 00:09:28,320 it looks like a snow storm or a blizzard 481 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,790 it looks like a snow storm or a blizzard or a heavy heavy rainstorm 482 00:09:30,790 --> 00:09:30,800 or a heavy heavy rainstorm 483 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,430 or a heavy heavy rainstorm really spectacular out the window 484 00:09:33,430 --> 00:09:33,440 really spectacular out the window 485 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,590 really spectacular out the window as you see this 486 00:09:35,590 --> 00:09:35,600 as you see this 487 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,910 as you see this we had a little clog in the line that 488 00:09:37,910 --> 00:09:37,920 we had a little clog in the line that 489 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,150 we had a little clog in the line that dumped that water overboard so 490 00:09:40,150 --> 00:09:40,160 dumped that water overboard so 491 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:41,910 dumped that water overboard so toward the end of the mission 492 00:09:41,910 --> 00:09:41,920 toward the end of the mission 493 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,910 toward the end of the mission we rigged up some tubing and and were 494 00:09:43,910 --> 00:09:43,920 we rigged up some tubing and and were 495 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,389 we rigged up some tubing and and were able to transfer that waste water 496 00:09:46,389 --> 00:09:46,399 able to transfer that waste water 497 00:09:46,399 --> 00:09:48,550 able to transfer that waste water into storage bags on the inside of the 498 00:09:48,550 --> 00:09:48,560 into storage bags on the inside of the 499 00:09:48,560 --> 00:09:52,790 into storage bags on the inside of the orbiter 500 00:09:52,790 --> 00:09:52,800 501 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,710 well throughout all this 502 00:09:54,710 --> 00:09:54,720 well throughout all this 503 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:56,550 well throughout all this problems with the orbiter plumbing we 504 00:09:56,550 --> 00:09:56,560 problems with the orbiter plumbing we 505 00:09:56,560 --> 00:09:58,710 problems with the orbiter plumbing we kept right on trucking as far as the 506 00:09:58,710 --> 00:09:58,720 kept right on trucking as far as the 507 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,350 kept right on trucking as far as the observations and kept getting good 508 00:10:01,350 --> 00:10:01,360 observations and kept getting good 509 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:02,790 observations and kept getting good science data 510 00:10:02,790 --> 00:10:02,800 science data 511 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:04,389 science data throughout and i'd say really all of 512 00:10:04,389 --> 00:10:04,399 throughout and i'd say really all of 513 00:10:04,399 --> 00:10:06,470 throughout and i'd say really all of these problems were no more than a minor 514 00:10:06,470 --> 00:10:06,480 these problems were no more than a minor 515 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:11,269 these problems were no more than a minor inconvenience 516 00:10:11,269 --> 00:10:11,279 517 00:10:11,279 --> 00:10:13,190 we had four people on board who have 518 00:10:13,190 --> 00:10:13,200 we had four people on board who have 519 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:14,310 we had four people on board who have actually 520 00:10:14,310 --> 00:10:14,320 actually 521 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,470 actually at various times in our careers have 522 00:10:16,470 --> 00:10:16,480 at various times in our careers have 523 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,110 at various times in our careers have taught in universities so we 524 00:10:19,110 --> 00:10:19,120 taught in universities so we 525 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,670 taught in universities so we took this idea of teachers in space and 526 00:10:21,670 --> 00:10:21,680 took this idea of teachers in space and 527 00:10:21,680 --> 00:10:23,190 took this idea of teachers in space and and the interest that nasa has in 528 00:10:23,190 --> 00:10:23,200 and the interest that nasa has in 529 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,910 and the interest that nasa has in education and we actually taught some 530 00:10:25,910 --> 00:10:25,920 education and we actually taught some 531 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,269 education and we actually taught some lessons 532 00:10:27,269 --> 00:10:27,279 lessons 533 00:10:27,279 --> 00:10:30,310 lessons direct to classrooms on the ground with 534 00:10:30,310 --> 00:10:30,320 direct to classrooms on the ground with 535 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,470 direct to classrooms on the ground with students here's sam talking about the 536 00:10:32,470 --> 00:10:32,480 students here's sam talking about the 537 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,710 students here's sam talking about the electromagnetic spectrum 538 00:10:34,710 --> 00:10:34,720 electromagnetic spectrum 539 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,590 electromagnetic spectrum showing why we go into space to see some 540 00:10:37,590 --> 00:10:37,600 showing why we go into space to see some 541 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,590 showing why we go into space to see some of the radiation which we can't observe 542 00:10:39,590 --> 00:10:39,600 of the radiation which we can't observe 543 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,069 of the radiation which we can't observe from the ground and the students 544 00:10:42,069 --> 00:10:42,079 from the ground and the students 545 00:10:42,079 --> 00:10:45,350 from the ground and the students on the ground heard this in in real time 546 00:10:45,350 --> 00:10:45,360 on the ground heard this in in real time 547 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,590 on the ground heard this in in real time after sam finish i i took over to talk a 548 00:10:47,590 --> 00:10:47,600 after sam finish i i took over to talk a 549 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:49,590 after sam finish i i took over to talk a little bit about 550 00:10:49,590 --> 00:10:49,600 little bit about 551 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,750 little bit about space operations we're going to give the 552 00:10:51,750 --> 00:10:51,760 space operations we're going to give the 553 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,430 space operations we're going to give the students a chance to ask some questions 554 00:10:53,430 --> 00:10:53,440 students a chance to ask some questions 555 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:57,190 students a chance to ask some questions later to bob and ron 556 00:10:57,190 --> 00:10:57,200 557 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:58,150 i guess 558 00:10:58,150 --> 00:10:58,160 i guess 559 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,949 i guess some of you have heard about my tie-in 560 00:11:00,949 --> 00:11:00,959 some of you have heard about my tie-in 561 00:11:00,959 --> 00:11:02,790 some of you have heard about my tie-in space which i wanted to demonstrate 562 00:11:02,790 --> 00:11:02,800 space which i wanted to demonstrate 563 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:03,990 space which i wanted to demonstrate before the 564 00:11:03,990 --> 00:11:04,000 before the 565 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,470 before the the actual lesson 566 00:11:06,470 --> 00:11:06,480 the actual lesson 567 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,350 the actual lesson i think it uh turned out to be a big hit 568 00:11:09,350 --> 00:11:09,360 i think it uh turned out to be a big hit 569 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,110 i think it uh turned out to be a big hit with the students and and hopefully it 570 00:11:11,110 --> 00:11:11,120 with the students and and hopefully it 571 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,310 with the students and and hopefully it will inspire some of them to go on and 572 00:11:14,310 --> 00:11:14,320 will inspire some of them to go on and 573 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,710 will inspire some of them to go on and and study hard and and perhaps go on to 574 00:11:16,710 --> 00:11:16,720 and study hard and and perhaps go on to 575 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,230 and study hard and and perhaps go on to do some work in astrophysics or 576 00:11:18,230 --> 00:11:18,240 do some work in astrophysics or 577 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:19,910 do some work in astrophysics or astronautics themselves because that of 578 00:11:19,910 --> 00:11:19,920 astronautics themselves because that of 579 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:21,990 astronautics themselves because that of course is what these projects are all 580 00:11:21,990 --> 00:11:22,000 course is what these projects are all 581 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:23,509 course is what these projects are all about 582 00:11:23,509 --> 00:11:23,519 about 583 00:11:23,519 --> 00:11:25,269 about the other shift kept on observing while 584 00:11:25,269 --> 00:11:25,279 the other shift kept on observing while 585 00:11:25,279 --> 00:11:27,030 the other shift kept on observing while we were teaching this lesson and here i 586 00:11:27,030 --> 00:11:27,040 we were teaching this lesson and here i 587 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:28,870 we were teaching this lesson and here i am showing something about how we 588 00:11:28,870 --> 00:11:28,880 am showing something about how we 589 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:30,870 am showing something about how we observe up on the flight deck 590 00:11:30,870 --> 00:11:30,880 observe up on the flight deck 591 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,430 observe up on the flight deck and then after we uh shifted and took 592 00:11:33,430 --> 00:11:33,440 and then after we uh shifted and took 593 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,269 and then after we uh shifted and took over these students had a chance to ask 594 00:11:35,269 --> 00:11:35,279 over these students had a chance to ask 595 00:11:35,279 --> 00:11:36,550 over these students had a chance to ask questions 596 00:11:36,550 --> 00:11:36,560 questions 597 00:11:36,560 --> 00:11:38,069 questions took a lot of work on the part of a lot 598 00:11:38,069 --> 00:11:38,079 took a lot of work on the part of a lot 599 00:11:38,079 --> 00:11:43,430 took a lot of work on the part of a lot of people but i think it was worth it 600 00:11:43,430 --> 00:11:43,440 601 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,990 continuing on in the educational vein 602 00:11:45,990 --> 00:11:46,000 continuing on in the educational vein 603 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,069 continuing on in the educational vein one of our midnight experiments the 604 00:11:48,069 --> 00:11:48,079 one of our midnight experiments the 605 00:11:48,079 --> 00:11:49,829 one of our midnight experiments the shuttle amateur radio experiment or 606 00:11:49,829 --> 00:11:49,839 shuttle amateur radio experiment or 607 00:11:49,839 --> 00:11:50,870 shuttle amateur radio experiment or psarx 608 00:11:50,870 --> 00:11:50,880 psarx 609 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:52,790 psarx head is one of its main objectives to 610 00:11:52,790 --> 00:11:52,800 head is one of its main objectives to 611 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,269 head is one of its main objectives to allow students at various places around 612 00:11:55,269 --> 00:11:55,279 allow students at various places around 613 00:11:55,279 --> 00:11:57,030 allow students at various places around the united states the opportunity to 614 00:11:57,030 --> 00:11:57,040 the united states the opportunity to 615 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:58,550 the united states the opportunity to interact directly 616 00:11:58,550 --> 00:11:58,560 interact directly 617 00:11:58,560 --> 00:12:01,269 interact directly with the shuttle crew 618 00:12:01,269 --> 00:12:01,279 with the shuttle crew 619 00:12:01,279 --> 00:12:04,790 with the shuttle crew we talked to 28 groups of students 620 00:12:04,790 --> 00:12:04,800 we talked to 28 groups of students 621 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:06,230 we talked to 28 groups of students and 622 00:12:06,230 --> 00:12:06,240 and 623 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,790 and many other people just private citizens 624 00:12:08,790 --> 00:12:08,800 many other people just private citizens 625 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,069 many other people just private citizens around the world 626 00:12:12,069 --> 00:12:12,079 627 00:12:12,079 --> 00:12:14,629 in a lot of ways this flight was uh 628 00:12:14,629 --> 00:12:14,639 in a lot of ways this flight was uh 629 00:12:14,639 --> 00:12:16,629 in a lot of ways this flight was uh a preview of what's to come in in the 630 00:12:16,629 --> 00:12:16,639 a preview of what's to come in in the 631 00:12:16,639 --> 00:12:19,030 a preview of what's to come in in the space station world when we finally get 632 00:12:19,030 --> 00:12:19,040 space station world when we finally get 633 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:20,550 space station world when we finally get a space station built 634 00:12:20,550 --> 00:12:20,560 a space station built 635 00:12:20,560 --> 00:12:22,710 a space station built i took the time to put together a short 636 00:12:22,710 --> 00:12:22,720 i took the time to put together a short 637 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,790 i took the time to put together a short demonstration of of some of the space 638 00:12:24,790 --> 00:12:24,800 demonstration of of some of the space 639 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,190 demonstration of of some of the space station issues handling trash is one of 640 00:12:27,190 --> 00:12:27,200 station issues handling trash is one of 641 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:28,710 station issues handling trash is one of the major issues 642 00:12:28,710 --> 00:12:28,720 the major issues 643 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,030 the major issues you saw how we got rid of waste water by 644 00:12:31,030 --> 00:12:31,040 you saw how we got rid of waste water by 645 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,350 you saw how we got rid of waste water by dumping it overboard however any solid 646 00:12:33,350 --> 00:12:33,360 dumping it overboard however any solid 647 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,670 dumping it overboard however any solid trash we accumulate and over the course 648 00:12:35,670 --> 00:12:35,680 trash we accumulate and over the course 649 00:12:35,680 --> 00:12:36,470 trash we accumulate and over the course of 650 00:12:36,470 --> 00:12:36,480 of 651 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:37,990 of nine days with seven people you 652 00:12:37,990 --> 00:12:38,000 nine days with seven people you 653 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,150 nine days with seven people you accumulate a lot of trash 654 00:12:40,150 --> 00:12:40,160 accumulate a lot of trash 655 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:40,949 accumulate a lot of trash and 656 00:12:40,949 --> 00:12:40,959 and 657 00:12:40,959 --> 00:12:42,790 and finding places to stow this trash is 658 00:12:42,790 --> 00:12:42,800 finding places to stow this trash is 659 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,629 finding places to stow this trash is always a major problem it gets more 660 00:12:44,629 --> 00:12:44,639 always a major problem it gets more 661 00:12:44,639 --> 00:12:46,550 always a major problem it gets more important to solve the longer you fly in 662 00:12:46,550 --> 00:12:46,560 important to solve the longer you fly in 663 00:12:46,560 --> 00:12:47,430 important to solve the longer you fly in space 664 00:12:47,430 --> 00:12:47,440 space 665 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,470 space we had a trash compactor experiment here 666 00:12:50,470 --> 00:12:50,480 we had a trash compactor experiment here 667 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,350 we had a trash compactor experiment here that allowed us to compress the trash by 668 00:12:53,350 --> 00:12:53,360 that allowed us to compress the trash by 669 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,350 that allowed us to compress the trash by a factor of three or four 670 00:12:55,350 --> 00:12:55,360 a factor of three or four 671 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,829 a factor of three or four and you see bob extracting this 672 00:12:57,829 --> 00:12:57,839 and you see bob extracting this 673 00:12:57,839 --> 00:13:00,069 and you see bob extracting this bag of compressed trash 674 00:13:00,069 --> 00:13:00,079 bag of compressed trash 675 00:13:00,079 --> 00:13:00,949 bag of compressed trash in a 676 00:13:00,949 --> 00:13:00,959 in a 677 00:13:00,959 --> 00:13:03,910 in a odor-tight water-tight bag that worked 678 00:13:03,910 --> 00:13:03,920 odor-tight water-tight bag that worked 679 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:05,430 odor-tight water-tight bag that worked very well and 680 00:13:05,430 --> 00:13:05,440 very well and 681 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,750 very well and allowed us to store that stuff much more 682 00:13:07,750 --> 00:13:07,760 allowed us to store that stuff much more 683 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:09,750 allowed us to store that stuff much more densely 684 00:13:09,750 --> 00:13:09,760 densely 685 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:12,389 densely well after uh several days of really 686 00:13:12,389 --> 00:13:12,399 well after uh several days of really 687 00:13:12,399 --> 00:13:14,310 well after uh several days of really pathfinding ultraviolet observations it 688 00:13:14,310 --> 00:13:14,320 pathfinding ultraviolet observations it 689 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,310 pathfinding ultraviolet observations it was time to put the instrument pointing 690 00:13:16,310 --> 00:13:16,320 was time to put the instrument pointing 691 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,389 was time to put the instrument pointing system to bed 692 00:13:18,389 --> 00:13:18,399 system to bed 693 00:13:18,399 --> 00:13:19,430 system to bed lower it 694 00:13:19,430 --> 00:13:19,440 lower it 695 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:20,790 lower it and lock it into the payload bay and 696 00:13:20,790 --> 00:13:20,800 and lock it into the payload bay and 697 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:22,230 and lock it into the payload bay and come home 698 00:13:22,230 --> 00:13:22,240 come home 699 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:23,750 come home now we were up there to do astronomy and 700 00:13:23,750 --> 00:13:23,760 now we were up there to do astronomy and 701 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:25,750 now we were up there to do astronomy and we could tell from what we had seen that 702 00:13:25,750 --> 00:13:25,760 we could tell from what we had seen that 703 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,629 we could tell from what we had seen that that we had reaped an immense harvest of 704 00:13:28,629 --> 00:13:28,639 that we had reaped an immense harvest of 705 00:13:28,639 --> 00:13:30,870 that we had reaped an immense harvest of data in ultraviolet astronomy 706 00:13:30,870 --> 00:13:30,880 data in ultraviolet astronomy 707 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:32,949 data in ultraviolet astronomy it was clear from what we saw in the 708 00:13:32,949 --> 00:13:32,959 it was clear from what we saw in the 709 00:13:32,959 --> 00:13:35,350 it was clear from what we saw in the ground that we had a successful 710 00:13:35,350 --> 00:13:35,360 ground that we had a successful 711 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:39,990 ground that we had a successful scientific mission 712 00:13:39,990 --> 00:13:40,000 713 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:41,910 it was time to come home first of all we 714 00:13:41,910 --> 00:13:41,920 it was time to come home first of all we 715 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:43,670 it was time to come home first of all we checked out the orbiter 716 00:13:43,670 --> 00:13:43,680 checked out the orbiter 717 00:13:43,680 --> 00:13:46,470 checked out the orbiter systems started up an apu and cycled the 718 00:13:46,470 --> 00:13:46,480 systems started up an apu and cycled the 719 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,069 systems started up an apu and cycled the flight controls and checked out all the 720 00:13:48,069 --> 00:13:48,079 flight controls and checked out all the 721 00:13:48,079 --> 00:13:50,310 flight controls and checked out all the sensors that we use in re-entering the 722 00:13:50,310 --> 00:13:50,320 sensors that we use in re-entering the 723 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,990 sensors that we use in re-entering the earth's atmosphere 724 00:13:53,990 --> 00:13:54,000 725 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,069 and here's a picture you see of the 726 00:13:56,069 --> 00:13:56,079 and here's a picture you see of the 727 00:13:56,079 --> 00:13:58,069 and here's a picture you see of the elevons that we're cycling to make sure 728 00:13:58,069 --> 00:13:58,079 elevons that we're cycling to make sure 729 00:13:58,079 --> 00:14:00,230 elevons that we're cycling to make sure that they all work properly this is not 730 00:14:00,230 --> 00:14:00,240 that they all work properly this is not 731 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:01,990 that they all work properly this is not to be confused with this is the way we 732 00:14:01,990 --> 00:14:02,000 to be confused with this is the way we 733 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:06,069 to be confused with this is the way we stay up in space by flapping our wings 734 00:14:06,069 --> 00:14:06,079 735 00:14:06,079 --> 00:14:07,910 but we checked all this stuff out the 736 00:14:07,910 --> 00:14:07,920 but we checked all this stuff out the 737 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,230 but we checked all this stuff out the day or so before we came back and it all 738 00:14:10,230 --> 00:14:10,240 day or so before we came back and it all 739 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:11,910 day or so before we came back and it all worked fine and we knew we were had a 740 00:14:11,910 --> 00:14:11,920 worked fine and we knew we were had a 741 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:13,350 worked fine and we knew we were had a good ship for re-entering the earth's 742 00:14:13,350 --> 00:14:13,360 good ship for re-entering the earth's 743 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:15,910 good ship for re-entering the earth's atmosphere after uh nine days up in 744 00:14:15,910 --> 00:14:15,920 atmosphere after uh nine days up in 745 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:24,230 atmosphere after uh nine days up in space 746 00:14:24,230 --> 00:14:24,240 747 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:26,069 well ron and i were the rookies on this 748 00:14:26,069 --> 00:14:26,079 well ron and i were the rookies on this 749 00:14:26,079 --> 00:14:28,230 well ron and i were the rookies on this flight and 750 00:14:28,230 --> 00:14:28,240 flight and 751 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:29,829 flight and it's it's really hard to describe and 752 00:14:29,829 --> 00:14:29,839 it's it's really hard to describe and 753 00:14:29,839 --> 00:14:31,990 it's it's really hard to describe and certainly to put in words or in video 754 00:14:31,990 --> 00:14:32,000 certainly to put in words or in video 755 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,150 certainly to put in words or in video the feelings that you have when you're 756 00:14:34,150 --> 00:14:34,160 the feelings that you have when you're 757 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:35,670 the feelings that you have when you're watching this it's really an awesome 758 00:14:35,670 --> 00:14:35,680 watching this it's really an awesome 759 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:36,949 watching this it's really an awesome experience 760 00:14:36,949 --> 00:14:36,959 experience 761 00:14:36,959 --> 00:14:38,870 experience the first thing you notice is uh how 762 00:14:38,870 --> 00:14:38,880 the first thing you notice is uh how 763 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,350 the first thing you notice is uh how fast you're going you're traveling about 764 00:14:41,350 --> 00:14:41,360 fast you're going you're traveling about 765 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:44,069 fast you're going you're traveling about five miles a second which takes you oh 766 00:14:44,069 --> 00:14:44,079 five miles a second which takes you oh 767 00:14:44,079 --> 00:14:45,350 five miles a second which takes you oh eight or ten minutes to go all the way 768 00:14:45,350 --> 00:14:45,360 eight or ten minutes to go all the way 769 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:51,030 eight or ten minutes to go all the way across the u.s 770 00:14:51,030 --> 00:14:51,040 771 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:54,230 and the earth as seen from there is 772 00:14:54,230 --> 00:14:54,240 and the earth as seen from there is 773 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:58,870 and the earth as seen from there is a beautiful place 774 00:14:58,870 --> 00:14:58,880 775 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:00,310 one of the things we got to do was a lot 776 00:15:00,310 --> 00:15:00,320 one of the things we got to do was a lot 777 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,230 one of the things we got to do was a lot of nighttime observing we were an 778 00:15:02,230 --> 00:15:02,240 of nighttime observing we were an 779 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:03,750 of nighttime observing we were an observatory 780 00:15:03,750 --> 00:15:03,760 observatory 781 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:05,430 observatory this uh 782 00:15:05,430 --> 00:15:05,440 this uh 783 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,949 this uh moon set here is we saw many of those 784 00:15:08,949 --> 00:15:08,959 moon set here is we saw many of those 785 00:15:08,959 --> 00:15:11,430 moon set here is we saw many of those and at night we had the cabin darkened 786 00:15:11,430 --> 00:15:11,440 and at night we had the cabin darkened 787 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,350 and at night we had the cabin darkened so that we got a fairly unique view of 788 00:15:13,350 --> 00:15:13,360 so that we got a fairly unique view of 789 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,670 so that we got a fairly unique view of the dark earth because we were dark 790 00:15:15,670 --> 00:15:15,680 the dark earth because we were dark 791 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,189 the dark earth because we were dark adapted in the cabin 792 00:15:17,189 --> 00:15:17,199 adapted in the cabin 793 00:15:17,199 --> 00:15:19,910 adapted in the cabin and we could see the airglow layer at 95 794 00:15:19,910 --> 00:15:19,920 and we could see the airglow layer at 95 795 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,590 and we could see the airglow layer at 95 kilometers and we could see the cities 796 00:15:21,590 --> 00:15:21,600 kilometers and we could see the cities 797 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:22,870 kilometers and we could see the cities float by 798 00:15:22,870 --> 00:15:22,880 float by 799 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,509 float by with lights we could see the us about a 800 00:15:25,509 --> 00:15:25,519 with lights we could see the us about a 801 00:15:25,519 --> 00:15:28,230 with lights we could see the us about a third of the united states at once as we 802 00:15:28,230 --> 00:15:28,240 third of the united states at once as we 803 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,750 third of the united states at once as we went over 804 00:15:31,750 --> 00:15:31,760 805 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:33,990 well this is our 806 00:15:33,990 --> 00:15:34,000 well this is our 807 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,389 well this is our final sunset on the payload bay before 808 00:15:36,389 --> 00:15:36,399 final sunset on the payload bay before 809 00:15:36,399 --> 00:15:38,150 final sunset on the payload bay before we close the doors 810 00:15:38,150 --> 00:15:38,160 we close the doors 811 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:41,030 we close the doors and came home with a very 812 00:15:41,030 --> 00:15:41,040 and came home with a very 813 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,750 and came home with a very deep rich harvest of ultraviolet 814 00:15:43,750 --> 00:15:43,760 deep rich harvest of ultraviolet 815 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:51,269 deep rich harvest of ultraviolet astronomy data 816 00:15:51,269 --> 00:15:51,279 817 00:15:51,279 --> 00:15:53,509 we landed at night and so in order to 818 00:15:53,509 --> 00:15:53,519 we landed at night and so in order to 819 00:15:53,519 --> 00:15:55,269 we landed at night and so in order to see the shuttle we use these infrared 820 00:15:55,269 --> 00:15:55,279 see the shuttle we use these infrared 821 00:15:55,279 --> 00:15:56,710 see the shuttle we use these infrared cameras because the shuttle has no 822 00:15:56,710 --> 00:15:56,720 cameras because the shuttle has no 823 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:57,910 cameras because the shuttle has no lights on it and you wouldn't be able to 824 00:15:57,910 --> 00:15:57,920 lights on it and you wouldn't be able to 825 00:15:57,920 --> 00:15:59,430 lights on it and you wouldn't be able to see us at this point otherwise so this 826 00:15:59,430 --> 00:15:59,440 see us at this point otherwise so this 827 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,189 see us at this point otherwise so this is infrared photography on the outer 828 00:16:01,189 --> 00:16:01,199 is infrared photography on the outer 829 00:16:01,199 --> 00:16:03,509 is infrared photography on the outer glide slope 830 00:16:03,509 --> 00:16:03,519 glide slope 831 00:16:03,519 --> 00:16:05,350 glide slope with a heavy orbiter we came down on 832 00:16:05,350 --> 00:16:05,360 with a heavy orbiter we came down on 833 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,430 with a heavy orbiter we came down on glide slope at 17 degrees rather than 834 00:16:07,430 --> 00:16:07,440 glide slope at 17 degrees rather than 835 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,590 glide slope at 17 degrees rather than the 19 degree glide slope of the lighter 836 00:16:09,590 --> 00:16:09,600 the 19 degree glide slope of the lighter 837 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,110 the 19 degree glide slope of the lighter vehicles 838 00:16:11,110 --> 00:16:11,120 vehicles 839 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:12,790 vehicles i consider this the most important part 840 00:16:12,790 --> 00:16:12,800 i consider this the most important part 841 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,310 i consider this the most important part of the mission right here as the pilot 842 00:16:14,310 --> 00:16:14,320 of the mission right here as the pilot 843 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,389 of the mission right here as the pilot gets to lower the landing gear 844 00:16:16,389 --> 00:16:16,399 gets to lower the landing gear 845 00:16:16,399 --> 00:16:18,470 gets to lower the landing gear and then vance brought it in for 846 00:16:18,470 --> 00:16:18,480 and then vance brought it in for 847 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,509 and then vance brought it in for just a super smooth landing on the hard 848 00:16:21,509 --> 00:16:21,519 just a super smooth landing on the hard 849 00:16:21,519 --> 00:16:24,389 just a super smooth landing on the hard surface runway at edwards runway 2-2 850 00:16:24,389 --> 00:16:24,399 surface runway at edwards runway 2-2 851 00:16:24,399 --> 00:16:26,150 surface runway at edwards runway 2-2 right on air speed right distance down 852 00:16:26,150 --> 00:16:26,160 right on air speed right distance down 853 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:27,670 right on air speed right distance down the runway just just the way it ought to 854 00:16:27,670 --> 00:16:27,680 the runway just just the way it ought to 855 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,030 the runway just just the way it ought to be done 856 00:16:29,030 --> 00:16:29,040 be done 857 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:30,310 be done you can see the 858 00:16:30,310 --> 00:16:30,320 you can see the 859 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:32,150 you can see the gear heat up immediately as they touch 860 00:16:32,150 --> 00:16:32,160 gear heat up immediately as they touch 861 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:37,829 gear heat up immediately as they touch down here and start glowing white 862 00:16:37,829 --> 00:16:37,839 863 00:16:37,839 --> 00:16:39,910 this is what it looks like visually our 864 00:16:39,910 --> 00:16:39,920 this is what it looks like visually our 865 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:41,350 this is what it looks like visually our family's got to watch this from the end 866 00:16:41,350 --> 00:16:41,360 family's got to watch this from the end 867 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:42,949 family's got to watch this from the end of the runway and so just spectacular to 868 00:16:42,949 --> 00:16:42,959 of the runway and so just spectacular to 869 00:16:42,959 --> 00:16:44,230 of the runway and so just spectacular to not be able to see anything and all of a 870 00:16:44,230 --> 00:16:44,240 not be able to see anything and all of a 871 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,150 not be able to see anything and all of a sudden this huge shuttle just comes 872 00:16:46,150 --> 00:16:46,160 sudden this huge shuttle just comes 873 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,310 sudden this huge shuttle just comes roaring into the field of view 874 00:16:48,310 --> 00:16:48,320 roaring into the field of view 875 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,470 roaring into the field of view back to infrared you can see the hot 876 00:16:50,470 --> 00:16:50,480 back to infrared you can see the hot 877 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,150 back to infrared you can see the hot spots or the white things you see there 878 00:16:52,150 --> 00:16:52,160 spots or the white things you see there 879 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:53,749 spots or the white things you see there the nose of the orbiter is still pretty 880 00:16:53,749 --> 00:16:53,759 the nose of the orbiter is still pretty 881 00:16:53,759 --> 00:16:55,670 the nose of the orbiter is still pretty hot from its reentry 882 00:16:55,670 --> 00:16:55,680 hot from its reentry 883 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:57,910 hot from its reentry and the flames you see on the back just 884 00:16:57,910 --> 00:16:57,920 and the flames you see on the back just 885 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,310 and the flames you see on the back just in front of the vertical tail are the 886 00:17:00,310 --> 00:17:00,320 in front of the vertical tail are the 887 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,150 in front of the vertical tail are the exhaust from our auxiliary power units 888 00:17:02,150 --> 00:17:02,160 exhaust from our auxiliary power units 889 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,710 exhaust from our auxiliary power units the apu's and they are they work by 890 00:17:04,710 --> 00:17:04,720 the apu's and they are they work by 891 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,350 the apu's and they are they work by pulsing the hydrazine 892 00:17:07,350 --> 00:17:07,360 pulsing the hydrazine 893 00:17:07,360 --> 00:17:09,270 pulsing the hydrazine and turning the 894 00:17:09,270 --> 00:17:09,280 and turning the 895 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:10,870 and turning the motors that keep the hydraulic system 896 00:17:10,870 --> 00:17:10,880 motors that keep the hydraulic system 897 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:12,390 motors that keep the hydraulic system powered and so it looks you see that 898 00:17:12,390 --> 00:17:12,400 powered and so it looks you see that 899 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,870 powered and so it looks you see that kind of engine puffy look coming out of 900 00:17:14,870 --> 00:17:14,880 kind of engine puffy look coming out of 901 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:15,590 kind of engine puffy look coming out of the 902 00:17:15,590 --> 00:17:15,600 the 903 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:21,590 the exhaust from the hydrazine 904 00:17:21,590 --> 00:17:21,600 905 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,309 but we rolled out on the runway and 906 00:17:24,309 --> 00:17:24,319 but we rolled out on the runway and 907 00:17:24,319 --> 00:17:26,949 but we rolled out on the runway and vance did a great job we were 908 00:17:26,949 --> 00:17:26,959 vance did a great job we were 909 00:17:26,959 --> 00:17:28,309 vance did a great job we were folks came up and said i'd never seen an 910 00:17:28,309 --> 00:17:28,319 folks came up and said i'd never seen an 911 00:17:28,319 --> 00:17:30,230 folks came up and said i'd never seen an orbiter that was parked so precisely on 912 00:17:30,230 --> 00:17:30,240 orbiter that was parked so precisely on 913 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:31,510 orbiter that was parked so precisely on the center line of runway when it came 914 00:17:31,510 --> 00:17:31,520 the center line of runway when it came 915 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:34,390 the center line of runway when it came to a wheel stop 916 00:17:34,390 --> 00:17:34,400 917 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:39,350 the end of just a wonderful mission 918 00:17:39,350 --> 00:17:39,360 919 00:17:39,360 --> 00:17:41,350 here we are coming down the 920 00:17:41,350 --> 00:17:41,360 here we are coming down the 921 00:17:41,360 --> 00:17:42,870 here we are coming down the stairway 922 00:17:42,870 --> 00:17:42,880 stairway 923 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,110 stairway you can see we're pleased to 924 00:17:45,110 --> 00:17:45,120 you can see we're pleased to 925 00:17:45,120 --> 00:17:46,870 you can see we're pleased to be home we really enjoyed the trip but 926 00:17:46,870 --> 00:17:46,880 be home we really enjoyed the trip but 927 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,029 be home we really enjoyed the trip but it's always nice to get home 928 00:17:49,029 --> 00:17:49,039 it's always nice to get home 929 00:17:49,039 --> 00:17:50,710 it's always nice to get home all of us were probably 930 00:17:50,710 --> 00:17:50,720 all of us were probably 931 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,510 all of us were probably an inch or two taller than uh normal 932 00:17:53,510 --> 00:17:53,520 an inch or two taller than uh normal 933 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,230 an inch or two taller than uh normal that point having stretched out a bit in 934 00:17:56,230 --> 00:17:56,240 that point having stretched out a bit in 935 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,510 that point having stretched out a bit in weightlessness 936 00:17:59,510 --> 00:17:59,520 937 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:01,750 once again our patch 938 00:18:01,750 --> 00:18:01,760 once again our patch 939 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,070 once again our patch many people on the crew helped put it 940 00:18:04,070 --> 00:18:04,080 many people on the crew helped put it 941 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,080 many people on the crew helped put it together
