1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:01:18,180
I

2
00:01:23,290 --> 00:01:20,469
Columbia Houston your wake up this

3
00:01:25,960 --> 00:01:23,300
morning was provided by the 1980 US Air

4
00:01:33,010 --> 00:01:25,970
Force Academy drum and bugle corps good

5
00:01:35,380 --> 00:01:33,020
morning alright good morning k and just

6
00:01:38,020 --> 00:01:35,390
let everyone know we have to fund rebuke

7
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:38,030
or members up here and three former

8
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:41,290
caddy grads up here and it was really

9
00:01:55,630 --> 00:01:53,139
so we copy that this is Mission Control

10
00:01:58,630 --> 00:01:55,640
Houston wake up music for the crew of

11
00:02:01,749 --> 00:01:58,640
Columbia this morning was provided by

12
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:01,759
the 1980s Force Academy drum and bugle

13
00:02:10,090 --> 00:02:07,610
corps featuring cadet Susan Helms on

14
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:10,100
xylophone playing flight of the

15
00:02:15,970 --> 00:02:13,970
bumblebee actually three days into what

16
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:15,980
NASA hopes will be a record-setting

17
00:02:22,630 --> 00:02:19,130
mission 17 days is the goal right now

18
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:22,640
and joining us from space traveling

19
00:02:27,220 --> 00:02:25,370
along at about 28,000 kilometers per

20
00:02:29,530 --> 00:02:27,230
hour about two hundred and sixty six

21
00:02:32,530 --> 00:02:29,540
kilometers above the earth and I believe

22
00:02:34,539 --> 00:02:32,540
somewhere over Africa are five members

23
00:02:37,180 --> 00:02:34,549
of Columbia's crew let's begin with

24
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:37,190
commander Tom Henrik's commander first

25
00:02:41,140 --> 00:02:39,890
of all the goal is seventeen days you on

26
00:02:43,090 --> 00:02:41,150
track right now as I understand it

27
00:02:47,199 --> 00:02:43,100
you're conserving power in an effort to

28
00:02:49,539 --> 00:02:47,209
stay up there and set that record so

29
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:49,549
that's probably true we plan to conserve

30
00:02:55,150 --> 00:02:52,010
power in any event with what we call a a

31
00:02:57,310 --> 00:02:55,160
groupie fall down which is extended stay

32
00:02:58,660 --> 00:02:57,320
on all this power down and midway

33
00:03:00,430 --> 00:02:58,670
through the movement we hope that our

34
00:03:04,900 --> 00:03:00,440
management will give us the go for that

35
00:03:06,460 --> 00:03:04,910
70 a record 17 days I guess we had to

36
00:03:08,830 --> 00:03:06,470
put that in perspective a little bit

37
00:03:10,900 --> 00:03:08,840
because on the Russian space station Mir

38
00:03:12,970 --> 00:03:10,910
we heard last week that the crew which

39
00:03:15,490 --> 00:03:12,980
has been up there for some months will

40
00:03:17,349 --> 00:03:15,500
be delayed by 40 days so the delay for

41
00:03:19,990 --> 00:03:17,359
the Russians exceeds our record by about

42
00:03:21,640 --> 00:03:20,000
three times give me a sense of how you

43
00:03:23,500 --> 00:03:21,650
and the other crew members might feel

44
00:03:34,980 --> 00:03:23,510
about spending as long as 40 days or

45
00:03:40,210 --> 00:03:37,540
hi my name is Sarah rikler head on the

46
00:03:41,650 --> 00:03:40,220
end this one the flight and I actually

47
00:03:43,390 --> 00:03:41,660
look forward to spending more time in

48
00:03:45,550 --> 00:03:43,400
space after this if we get the

49
00:03:47,860 --> 00:03:45,560
International Space Station up will be

50
00:03:50,170 --> 00:03:47,870
staying up there for periods of two to

51
00:03:51,729 --> 00:03:50,180
three months at a time and this shuttle

52
00:03:54,250 --> 00:03:51,739
flight is play lead of things to come in

53
00:03:57,190 --> 00:03:54,260
that way we're trying to you all figure

54
00:03:59,620 --> 00:03:57,200
out how the human body reacts one

55
00:04:00,550 --> 00:03:59,630
relation space travel we get this data

56
00:04:01,930 --> 00:04:00,560
we're getting a lot of good life

57
00:04:05,050 --> 00:04:01,940
sciences data will be able to put that

58
00:04:06,790 --> 00:04:05,060
to our work grunts also guts and data

59
00:04:10,170 --> 00:04:06,800
will be building a station with that and

60
00:04:12,580 --> 00:04:10,180
combining our resources and talents

61
00:04:14,830 --> 00:04:12,590
despite all the data that does exist

62
00:04:16,690 --> 00:04:14,840
between NASA and the Russians about

63
00:04:18,250 --> 00:04:16,700
longevity and space there's still a lot

64
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:18,260
we need to know is that correct as I

65
00:04:21,970 --> 00:04:20,090
understand it there are all kinds of

66
00:04:23,710 --> 00:04:21,980
problems I guess you could call them

67
00:04:25,150 --> 00:04:23,720
problems which astronauts encounter

68
00:04:27,700 --> 00:04:25,160
whether they're in space among them bone

69
00:04:29,350 --> 00:04:27,710
loss muscle loss problems sleeping and

70
00:04:31,570 --> 00:04:29,360
not to mention the fact space adaptation

71
00:04:33,879 --> 00:04:31,580
sickness now as I understand it

72
00:04:35,710 --> 00:04:33,889
two-thirds of all astronauts have this

73
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:35,720
space adaptation sickness and I don't

74
00:04:39,280 --> 00:04:37,490
not going to ask anybody here if they

75
00:04:40,930 --> 00:04:39,290
ever have had it but if you could tell

76
00:04:49,840 --> 00:04:40,940
me what the symptoms are how long it

77
00:04:51,790 --> 00:04:49,850
lasts and what can be done about it okay

78
00:04:53,590 --> 00:04:51,800
I'll be happy to take care what we have

79
00:04:56,290 --> 00:04:53,600
to do it's an excellent work up here

80
00:04:58,330 --> 00:04:56,300
looking for the answers of why and how

81
00:05:00,340 --> 00:04:58,340
those really things happen she a little

82
00:05:03,850 --> 00:05:00,350
bit of example solar systems people can

83
00:05:06,940 --> 00:05:03,860
experience normally the body explains as

84
00:05:08,950 --> 00:05:06,950
a major food shift immediately after the

85
00:05:10,990 --> 00:05:08,960
advent of complete and this food shift

86
00:05:14,159 --> 00:05:11,000
can bring on a lot of strange symptoms

87
00:05:18,430 --> 00:05:14,169
such as fullness of the head stuffy nose

88
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:18,440
stomach awareness and headaches and is

89
00:05:23,050 --> 00:05:20,690
it done is it goes on on people get used

90
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:23,060
to it and they adapted energy usually

91
00:05:27,940 --> 00:05:26,570
within hours and our case everybody

92
00:05:30,340 --> 00:05:27,950
hears you have two very very quickly

93
00:05:32,380 --> 00:05:30,350
we've had just helped standing flight

94
00:05:34,630 --> 00:05:32,390
from the standpoint of adaption so the

95
00:05:36,159 --> 00:05:34,640
scientists were hoping to capture a lot

96
00:05:37,930 --> 00:05:36,169
of date on down our career probably not

97
00:05:40,029 --> 00:05:37,940
going to get a whole lot our mission is

98
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:40,039
looking at not only SMS which is the

99
00:05:44,500 --> 00:05:41,930
state versus sickness adaption but we're

100
00:05:45,100 --> 00:05:44,510
also looking at other areas of the life

101
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:45,110
science

102
00:05:49,990 --> 00:05:47,570
rina to include both mom which is a very

103
00:05:51,580 --> 00:05:50,000
very important thing to look at when you

104
00:05:53,500 --> 00:05:51,590
took such a long duration space flights

105
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:53,510
because as long as ones that have been

106
00:05:58,800 --> 00:05:56,210
documented in the past it is we got a

107
00:06:02,250 --> 00:05:58,810
real social experiment here looking at

108
00:06:05,620 --> 00:06:02,260
bachelor brought skeletal function and

109
00:06:07,300 --> 00:06:05,630
still be done on earth at sport velocity

110
00:06:10,090 --> 00:06:07,310
dynamometer meeting we have in the

111
00:06:11,770 --> 00:06:10,100
background here and it went very well

112
00:06:13,810 --> 00:06:11,780
we're hoping to bring back lots of good

113
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:13,820
times for the right scientist back on

114
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:17,810
earth you all are sort of acting as

115
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:19,130
guinea pigs up there and we're gonna

116
00:06:22,030 --> 00:06:20,450
want to talk a little bit about some of

117
00:06:23,710 --> 00:06:22,040
the tests that are ongoing but let me

118
00:06:25,810 --> 00:06:23,720
introduce to you release of a syllabus

119
00:06:27,610 --> 00:06:25,820
itting here beside me here at CNN center

120
00:06:30,190 --> 00:06:27,620
she has a couple of questions for you go

121
00:06:33,820 --> 00:06:30,200
ahead Lisa I'm interested a once you're

122
00:06:35,230 --> 00:06:33,830
back on earth how do you adapt to the

123
00:06:37,390 --> 00:06:35,240
earth conditions again what do you

124
00:06:40,780 --> 00:06:37,400
experience you've had bone walls you

125
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:40,790
have muscle loss motion sickness how do

126
00:06:50,770 --> 00:06:42,410
you feel when you when you get off the

127
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:50,780
shuttle for you readapt it's one of the

128
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:52,970
things that happen is it you feel very

129
00:06:56,380 --> 00:06:54,530
heavy because we've been floating around

130
00:06:59,350 --> 00:06:56,390
here in our case will be two and a half

131
00:07:01,720 --> 00:06:59,360
weeks also your balance is a little bit

132
00:07:04,210 --> 00:07:01,730
off your inner here those long hair

133
00:07:06,070 --> 00:07:04,220
follicles tell you where gravity is but

134
00:07:08,130 --> 00:07:06,080
we haven't been used them all up your

135
00:07:11,950 --> 00:07:08,140
space and so they're out of calibration

136
00:07:15,450 --> 00:07:11,960
so you tend to stagger a bit and you've

137
00:07:19,660 --> 00:07:15,460
never passed any up we spend DWI test

138
00:07:22,420 --> 00:07:19,670
bed Yuri adapt to gravity very quickly

139
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:22,430
and in my case after just one day and go

140
00:07:27,670 --> 00:07:26,090
back from the news well must confess

141
00:07:29,020 --> 00:07:27,680
looking at it all behind you it looks a

142
00:07:31,510 --> 00:07:29,030
little bit like a health club an

143
00:07:34,150 --> 00:07:31,520
orbiting health club tell me what's it

144
00:07:42,860 --> 00:07:34,160
like exercising in space I guess there's

145
00:07:47,309 --> 00:07:45,540
well believe it oh it's pretty similar

146
00:07:50,189 --> 00:07:47,319
to what you would do back on earth

147
00:07:51,450 --> 00:07:50,199
except you just don't have to still have

148
00:07:53,909 --> 00:07:51,460
the gravity that'll hold you down to

149
00:07:56,969 --> 00:07:53,919
think so because of that we have to use

150
00:07:59,129 --> 00:07:56,979
special seats dropping Tippett harnesses

151
00:08:00,839 --> 00:07:59,139
that'll keep it so on spot while we

152
00:08:04,170 --> 00:08:00,849
exercise you can see if we let go we

153
00:08:05,730 --> 00:08:04,180
just photo and that can't happen so

154
00:08:08,159 --> 00:08:05,740
right now it back a bit shocked you

155
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:08,169
Sonny odometer it's probably a little

156
00:08:12,989 --> 00:08:10,330
tough to see but he's coming off now you

157
00:08:16,290 --> 00:08:12,999
just strapped down to a special seat and

158
00:08:20,089 --> 00:08:16,300
with using special panels raising pedals

159
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:20,099
actually keep in the contraption and

160
00:08:24,689 --> 00:08:23,050
exercise and get up to you are just

161
00:08:26,249 --> 00:08:24,699
about the same workers you with down on

162
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:26,259
the tracks are more comfortable because

163
00:08:31,890 --> 00:08:28,810
you kind of float relax while you're

164
00:08:34,079 --> 00:08:31,900
exercising now everyone knows why they

165
00:08:36,899 --> 00:08:34,089
invented velcro I guess tell me a dr.

166
00:08:38,370 --> 00:08:36,909
Linehan we've been talking about the the

167
00:08:40,050 --> 00:08:38,380
life science aspect as it relates to

168
00:08:42,149 --> 00:08:40,060
humans they got a lot of critters on

169
00:08:43,680 --> 00:08:42,159
board which are taking care of house all

170
00:08:49,650 --> 00:08:43,690
that doing give us kind of a broad brush

171
00:08:54,060 --> 00:08:49,660
and what you have going on there well

172
00:08:56,460 --> 00:08:54,070
we're flying off a road that fish

173
00:09:00,900 --> 00:08:56,470
embryos actually applying some white lab

174
00:09:03,030 --> 00:09:00,910
rats and fish embryos study a biological

175
00:09:04,680 --> 00:09:03,040
development and what we're really

176
00:09:06,930 --> 00:09:04,690
looking out there is that they're

177
00:09:08,310 --> 00:09:06,940
spending their time up the pace I saw

178
00:09:09,810 --> 00:09:08,320
and though we're going to look at the

179
00:09:11,460 --> 00:09:09,820
developmental changes that might occur

180
00:09:13,650 --> 00:09:11,470
the fish up yours due to a lack of

181
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:13,660
gravity or should I say microgravity not

182
00:09:18,870 --> 00:09:16,810
a lack of gravity and also look at the

183
00:09:22,199 --> 00:09:18,880
changes physiological changes that might

184
00:09:25,199 --> 00:09:22,209
