we have two alternate payload 54 00:03:42,229 --> 00:03:42,239 we have two alternate payload 55 00:03:42,239 --> 00:03:43,830 we have two alternate payload specialists that train with us and 56 00:03:43,830 --> 00:03:43,840 specialists that train with us and 57 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,070 specialists that train with us and they're from spain and italy so we see 58 00:03:46,070 --> 00:03:46,080 they're from spain and italy so we see 59 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:47,750 they're from spain and italy so we see their home countries every morning just 60 00:03:47,750 --> 00:03:47,760 their home countries every morning just 61 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:49,509 their home countries every morning just after we arrive 62 00:03:49,509 --> 00:03:49,519 after we arrive 63 00:03:49,519 --> 00:03:51,110 after we arrive too bad they can't pass up some food as 64 00:03:51,110 --> 00:03:51,120 too bad they can't pass up some food as 65 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,949 too bad they can't pass up some food as you go over all that 66 00:03:54,949 --> 00:03:54,959 67 00:03:54,959 --> 00:03:57,509 now this is a the longest mission that 68 00:03:57,509 --> 00:03:57,519 now this is a the longest mission that 69 00:03:57,519 --> 00:03:59,830 now this is a the longest mission that they nasa has attempted with the space 70 00:03:59,830 --> 00:03:59,840 they nasa has attempted with the space 71 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,070 they nasa has attempted with the space shuttle 16 days you can stay an extra 72 00:04:02,070 --> 00:04:02,080 shuttle 16 days you can stay an extra 73 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:03,990 shuttle 16 days you can stay an extra two if you need to for contingencies 74 00:04:03,990 --> 00:04:04,000 two if you need to for contingencies 75 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,149 two if you need to for contingencies there and weather ops uh and i 76 00:04:06,149 --> 00:04:06,159 there and weather ops uh and i 77 00:04:06,159 --> 00:04:08,070 there and weather ops uh and i understand one of the primary missions 78 00:04:08,070 --> 00:04:08,080 understand one of the primary missions 79 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,830 understand one of the primary missions is to study microgravity and 80 00:04:09,830 --> 00:04:09,840 is to study microgravity and 81 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,750 is to study microgravity and weightlessness in space now we've been 82 00:04:11,750 --> 00:04:11,760 weightlessness in space now we've been 83 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,070 weightlessness in space now we've been in space for 30 years and we've had long 84 00:04:14,070 --> 00:04:14,080 in space for 30 years and we've had long 85 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:15,830 in space for 30 years and we've had long duration missions in the sky lab and 86 00:04:15,830 --> 00:04:15,840 duration missions in the sky lab and 87 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:17,030 duration missions in the sky lab and certainly now with the mirror with 88 00:04:17,030 --> 00:04:17,040 certainly now with the mirror with 89 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,069 certainly now with the mirror with american astronauts up with the russians 90 00:04:20,069 --> 00:04:20,079 american astronauts up with the russians 91 00:04:20,079 --> 00:04:22,390 american astronauts up with the russians why is it important to know what happens 92 00:04:22,390 --> 00:04:22,400 why is it important to know what happens 93 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:23,909 why is it important to know what happens to the human body and weightless 94 00:04:23,909 --> 00:04:23,919 to the human body and weightless 95 00:04:23,919 --> 00:04:28,310 to the human body and weightless conditions 96 00:04:28,310 --> 00:04:28,320 97 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:29,990 that's a great question gene we uh we 98 00:04:29,990 --> 00:04:30,000 that's a great question gene we uh we 99 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,590 that's a great question gene we uh we have had a lot of experience both in the 100 00:04:31,590 --> 00:04:31,600 have had a lot of experience both in the 101 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,590 have had a lot of experience both in the american program and with the soviet 102 00:04:33,590 --> 00:04:33,600 american program and with the soviet 103 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,350 american program and with the soviet program uh 104 00:04:35,350 --> 00:04:35,360 program uh 105 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,749 program uh we have on this flight however began 106 00:04:37,749 --> 00:04:37,759 we have on this flight however began 107 00:04:37,759 --> 00:04:39,510 we have on this flight however began some real baseline collection 108 00:04:39,510 --> 00:04:39,520 some real baseline collection 109 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,030 some real baseline collection particularly in the muslim bomb 110 00:04:41,030 --> 00:04:41,040 particularly in the muslim bomb 111 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:42,790 particularly in the muslim bomb physiology area 112 00:04:42,790 --> 00:04:42,800 physiology area 113 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:44,469 physiology area probably the most extensive collection 114 00:04:44,469 --> 00:04:44,479 probably the most extensive collection 115 00:04:44,479 --> 00:04:45,830 probably the most extensive collection of sampling 116 00:04:45,830 --> 00:04:45,840 of sampling 117 00:04:45,840 --> 00:04:48,150 of sampling from muscle and bone tissue that's been 118 00:04:48,150 --> 00:04:48,160 from muscle and bone tissue that's been 119 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:49,350 from muscle and bone tissue that's been done to date 120 00:04:49,350 --> 00:04:49,360 done to date 121 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,030 done to date and we have a chance for a long duration 122 00:04:51,030 --> 00:04:51,040 and we have a chance for a long duration 123 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,710 and we have a chance for a long duration mission to accumulate that we've used a 124 00:04:52,710 --> 00:04:52,720 mission to accumulate that we've used a 125 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,950 mission to accumulate that we've used a lot of great data that's accumulated 126 00:04:54,950 --> 00:04:54,960 lot of great data that's accumulated 127 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:56,950 lot of great data that's accumulated from prior missions to formulated 128 00:04:56,950 --> 00:04:56,960 from prior missions to formulated 129 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:58,469 from prior missions to formulated experiments that we're trying to do on 130 00:04:58,469 --> 00:04:58,479 experiments that we're trying to do on 131 00:04:58,479 --> 00:04:59,670 experiments that we're trying to do on this one 132 00:04:59,670 --> 00:04:59,680 this one 133 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:01,670 this one specifically this crew is getting 134 00:05:01,670 --> 00:05:01,680 specifically this crew is getting 135 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,430 specifically this crew is getting payload crews getting biopsies of their 136 00:05:03,430 --> 00:05:03,440 payload crews getting biopsies of their 137 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,469 payload crews getting biopsies of their muscle tissues pre and postmission and 138 00:05:06,469 --> 00:05:06,479 muscle tissues pre and postmission and 139 00:05:06,479 --> 00:05:07,830 muscle tissues pre and postmission and this issue is going to be examined by 140 00:05:07,830 --> 00:05:07,840 this issue is going to be examined by 141 00:05:07,840 --> 00:05:10,150 this issue is going to be examined by investigators around the world and this 142 00:05:10,150 --> 00:05:10,160 investigators around the world and this 143 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,950 investigators around the world and this is very valuable uh sampling has not 144 00:05:12,950 --> 00:05:12,960 is very valuable uh sampling has not 145 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:14,310 is very valuable uh sampling has not been done before 146 00:05:14,310 --> 00:05:14,320 been done before 147 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:15,909 been done before and we're getting really extensive 148 00:05:15,909 --> 00:05:15,919 and we're getting really extensive 149 00:05:15,919 --> 00:05:17,670 and we're getting really extensive studies of the calcium system and we 150 00:05:17,670 --> 00:05:17,680 studies of the calcium system and we 151 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:18,950 studies of the calcium system and we really hope that 152 00:05:18,950 --> 00:05:18,960 really hope that 153 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,029 really hope that some of this data also interrelates and 154 00:05:21,029 --> 00:05:21,039 some of this data also interrelates and 155 00:05:21,039 --> 00:05:22,710 some of this data also interrelates and correlates with diseases like 156 00:05:22,710 --> 00:05:22,720 correlates with diseases like 157 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,270 correlates with diseases like osteoporosis back here on earth 158 00:05:25,270 --> 00:05:25,280 osteoporosis back here on earth 159 00:05:25,280 --> 00:05:28,629 osteoporosis back here on earth so it has both a a purpose for a long 160 00:05:28,629 --> 00:05:28,639 so it has both a a purpose for a long 161 00:05:28,639 --> 00:05:30,950 so it has both a a purpose for a long duration future space missions and also 162 00:05:30,950 --> 00:05:30,960 duration future space missions and also 163 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:31,670 duration future space missions and also for 164 00:05:31,670 --> 00:05:31,680 for 165 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:33,830 for perhaps cures for diseases here today is 166 00:05:33,830 --> 00:05:33,840 perhaps cures for diseases here today is 167 00:05:33,840 --> 00:05:38,230 perhaps cures for diseases here today is that correct 168 00:05:38,230 --> 00:05:38,240 169 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:39,590 regime we've really got some great 170 00:05:39,590 --> 00:05:39,600 regime we've really got some great 171 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,990 regime we've really got some great investigators both uh in the u.s and 172 00:05:41,990 --> 00:05:42,000 investigators both uh in the u.s and 173 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:43,350 investigators both uh in the u.s and around the world looking at these 174 00:05:43,350 --> 00:05:43,360 around the world looking at these 175 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,909 around the world looking at these samples and certainly the diseases of 176 00:05:45,909 --> 00:05:45,919 samples and certainly the diseases of 177 00:05:45,919 --> 00:05:47,510 samples and certainly the diseases of all like osteoporosis and many of the 178 00:05:47,510 --> 00:05:47,520 all like osteoporosis and many of the 179 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,230 all like osteoporosis and many of the muscle diseases correlate highly with 180 00:05:50,230 --> 00:05:50,240 muscle diseases correlate highly with 181 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,469 muscle diseases correlate highly with many things we find happen to astronauts 182 00:05:52,469 --> 00:05:52,479 many things we find happen to astronauts 183 00:05:52,479 --> 00:05:55,189 many things we find happen to astronauts in microgravity and we're very hopeful 184 00:05:55,189 --> 00:05:55,199 in microgravity and we're very hopeful 185 00:05:55,199 --> 00:05:56,950 in microgravity and we're very hopeful that some of these spin-offs from some 186 00:05:56,950 --> 00:05:56,960 that some of these spin-offs from some 187 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:58,230 that some of these spin-offs from some of this research will be helpful in 188 00:05:58,230 --> 00:05:58,240 of this research will be helpful in 189 00:05:58,240 --> 00:05:59,510 of this research will be helpful in those areas 190 00:05:59,510 --> 00:05:59,520 those areas 191 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,550 those areas okay let me ask susan helms real quickly 192 00:06:02,550 --> 00:06:02,560 okay let me ask susan helms real quickly 193 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,710 okay let me ask susan helms real quickly what is it like just to live in the 194 00:06:04,710 --> 00:06:04,720 what is it like just to live in the 195 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:09,590 what is it like just to live in the shuttle over a period of time 196 00:06:09,590 --> 00:06:09,600 197 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,230 well actually the best correlation i can 198 00:06:12,230 --> 00:06:12,240 well actually the best correlation i can 199 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,550 well actually the best correlation i can make is with a camping trip where you're 200 00:06:14,550 --> 00:06:14,560 make is with a camping trip where you're 201 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:15,990 make is with a camping trip where you're well prepared 202 00:06:15,990 --> 00:06:16,000 well prepared 203 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:17,590 well prepared we basically have a fixed amount of 204 00:06:17,590 --> 00:06:17,600 we basically have a fixed amount of 205 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,909 we basically have a fixed amount of volume inside the space shuttle and 206 00:06:19,909 --> 00:06:19,919 volume inside the space shuttle and 207 00:06:19,919 --> 00:06:22,230 volume inside the space shuttle and inside here we've got living quarters 208 00:06:22,230 --> 00:06:22,240 inside here we've got living quarters 209 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,790 inside here we've got living quarters working quarters habitability quarters 210 00:06:24,790 --> 00:06:24,800 working quarters habitability quarters 211 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,430 working quarters habitability quarters and uh it's home for as long as two 212 00:06:27,430 --> 00:06:27,440 and uh it's home for as long as two 213 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,189 and uh it's home for as long as two weeks or even longer hopefully on this 214 00:06:29,189 --> 00:06:29,199 weeks or even longer hopefully on this 215 00:06:29,199 --> 00:06:32,390 weeks or even longer hopefully on this flight and we we definitely 216 00:06:32,390 --> 00:06:32,400 flight and we we definitely 217 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,390 flight and we we definitely get to be a team we work together as a 218 00:06:34,390 --> 00:06:34,400 get to be a team we work together as a 219 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,950 get to be a team we work together as a team for over a year and become a family 220 00:06:36,950 --> 00:06:36,960 team for over a year and become a family 221 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:38,790 team for over a year and become a family as that progresses and when we get up 222 00:06:38,790 --> 00:06:38,800 as that progresses and when we get up 223 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:40,710 as that progresses and when we get up here we've got a job to do 224 00:06:40,710 --> 00:06:40,720 here we've got a job to do 225 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,790 here we've got a job to do and uh we we work back in the module 226 00:06:42,790 --> 00:06:42,800 and uh we we work back in the module 227 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,189 and uh we we work back in the module primarily during the day on this flight 228 00:06:45,189 --> 00:06:45,199 primarily during the day on this flight 229 00:06:45,199 --> 00:06:47,430 primarily during the day on this flight and then when or i should say during the 230 00:06:47,430 --> 00:06:47,440 and then when or i should say during the 231 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,510 and then when or i should say during the work shift on this flight and then when 232 00:06:49,510 --> 00:06:49,520 work shift on this flight and then when 233 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:50,790 work shift on this flight and then when it comes time for the crew to go to 234 00:06:50,790 --> 00:06:50,800 it comes time for the crew to go to 235 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,550 it comes time for the crew to go to sleep we turn the front end into a 236 00:06:52,550 --> 00:06:52,560 sleep we turn the front end into a 237 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:53,990 sleep we turn the front end into a sleeping quarters 238 00:06:53,990 --> 00:06:54,000 sleeping quarters 239 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,990 sleeping quarters and and it's very much like a camping 240 00:06:55,990 --> 00:06:56,000 and and it's very much like a camping 241 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,749 and and it's very much like a camping trip we're we're sort of in a volkswagen 242 00:06:57,749 --> 00:06:57,759 trip we're we're sort of in a volkswagen 243 00:06:57,759 --> 00:06:59,430 trip we're we're sort of in a volkswagen bus here locked up with the door closed 244 00:06:59,430 --> 00:06:59,440 bus here locked up with the door closed 245 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,790 bus here locked up with the door closed for over two weeks and it definitely 246 00:07:02,790 --> 00:07:02,800 for over two weeks and it definitely 247 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:04,469 for over two weeks and it definitely takes a lot of choreography and a lot of 248 00:07:04,469 --> 00:07:04,479 takes a lot of choreography and a lot of 249 00:07:04,479 --> 00:07:06,710 takes a lot of choreography and a lot of practice but it's working extremely well 250 00:07:06,710 --> 00:07:06,720 practice but it's working extremely well 251 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:08,550 practice but it's working extremely well let me ask very quickly charles brady 252 00:07:08,550 --> 00:07:08,560 let me ask very quickly charles brady 253 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,550 let me ask very quickly charles brady about uh about 254 00:07:10,550 --> 00:07:10,560 about uh about 255 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,469 about uh about carrying the olympic torch when he was 256 00:07:12,469 --> 00:07:12,479 carrying the olympic torch when he was 257 00:07:12,479 --> 00:07:16,550 carrying the olympic torch when he was doing his exercises the other day 258 00:07:16,550 --> 00:07:16,560 doing his exercises the other day 259 00:07:16,560 -->

pleasure talking to you from aboard the space shuttle columbia 308 00:08:06,309 --> 00:08:06,319 from aboard the space shuttle columbia 309 00:08:06,319 --> 00:09:07,670 from aboard the space shuttle columbia as we orbit the earth 310 00:09:07,670 --> 00:09:07,680 311 00:09:07,680 --> 00:09:09,350 during the life and microgravity space 312 00:09:09,350 --> 00:09:09,360 during the life and microgravity space 313 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,350 during the life and microgravity space lab mission we're going to make a very 314 00:09:11,350 --> 00:09:11,360 lab mission we're going to make a very 315 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,670 lab mission we're going to make a very aggressive and coordinated effort to try 316 00:09:13,670 --> 00:09:13,680 aggressive and coordinated effort to try 317 00:09:13,680 --> 00:09:16,150 aggressive and coordinated effort to try to understand the extent of muscle 318 00:09:16,150 --> 00:09:16,160 to understand the extent of muscle 319 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,949 to understand the extent of muscle atrophy and also the mechanisms behind 320 00:09:18,949 --> 00:09:18,959 atrophy and also the mechanisms behind 321 00:09:18,959 --> 00:09:20,470 atrophy and also the mechanisms behind it and for that reason we brought 322 00:09:20,470 --> 00:09:20,480 it and for that reason we brought 323 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,470 it and for that reason we brought together six different teams from the 324 00:09:22,470 --> 00:09:22,480 together six different teams from the 325 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,269 together six different teams from the united states and europe to study this 326 00:09:25,269 --> 00:09:25,279 united states and europe to study this 327 00:09:25,279 --> 00:09:28,230 united states and europe to study this in a comprehensive fashion 328 00:09:28,230 --> 00:09:28,240 in a comprehensive fashion 329 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,070 in a comprehensive fashion to support the muscle physiology 330 00:09:30,070 --> 00:09:30,080 to support the muscle physiology 331 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,310 to support the muscle physiology experiments we're making use of a very 332 00:09:32,310 --> 00:09:32,320 experiments we're making use of a very 333 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,389 experiments we're making use of a very sophisticated device called a torque 334 00:09:34,389 --> 00:09:34,399 sophisticated device called a torque 335 00:09:34,399 --> 00:09:37,269 sophisticated device called a torque velocity dynamometer or tvd 336 00:09:37,269 --> 00:09:37,279 velocity dynamometer or tvd 337 00:09:37,279 --> 00:09:38,790 velocity dynamometer or tvd it's contributed to the mission by the 338 00:09:38,790 --> 00:09:38,800 it's contributed to the mission by the 339 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,030 it's contributed to the mission by the european space agency 340 00:09:41,030 --> 00:09:41,040 european space agency 341 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,030 european space agency i sort of think of the torque velocity 342 00:09:43,030 --> 00:09:43,040 i sort of think of the torque velocity 343 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,910 i sort of think of the torque velocity dynamometer as an arm wrestling or a leg 344 00:09:45,910 --> 00:09:45,920 dynamometer as an arm wrestling or a leg 345 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,990 dynamometer as an arm wrestling or a leg wrestling machine this morning as jean 346 00:09:47,990 --> 00:09:48,000 wrestling machine this morning as jean 347 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,389 wrestling machine this morning as jean jacques fabian my colleague is working 348 00:09:50,389 --> 00:09:50,399 jacques fabian my colleague is working 349 00:09:50,399 --> 00:09:52,150 jacques fabian my colleague is working out here he's using it in the light 350 00:09:52,150 --> 00:09:52,160 out here he's using it in the light 351 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,150 out here he's using it in the light wrestling mode 352 00:09:54,150 --> 00:09:54,160 wrestling mode 353 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,550 wrestling mode sometimes the machine wins the wrestling 354 00:09:56,550 --> 00:09:56,560 sometimes the machine wins the wrestling 355 00:09:56,560 --> 00:09:58,710 sometimes the machine wins the wrestling match against us and sometimes it lets 356 00:09:58,710 --> 00:09:58,720 match against us and sometimes it lets 357 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,949 match against us and sometimes it lets us win but who wins the wrestling match 358 00:10:00,949 --> 00:10:00,959 us win but who wins the wrestling match 359 00:10:00,959 --> 00:10:02,310 us win but who wins the wrestling match is not important 360 00:10:02,310 --> 00:10:02,320 is not important 361 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,110 is not important what is important is that the tvd can 362 00:10:05,110 --> 00:10:05,120 what is important is that the tvd can 363 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,590 what is important is that the tvd can measure the torque or the force applied 364 00:10:07,590 --> 00:10:07,600 measure the torque or the force applied 365 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:08,710 measure the torque or the force applied by the limb 366 00:10:08,710 --> 00:10:08,720 by the limb 367 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:10,870 by the limb and also the speed at which we contract 368 00:10:10,870 --> 00:10:10,880 and also the speed at which we contract 369 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,269 and also the speed at which we contract our muscles and the position of the the 370 00:10:13,269 --> 00:10:13,279 our muscles and the position of the the 371 00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:16,230 our muscles and the position of the the foot or the arm at any instant in time 372 00:10:16,230 --> 00:10:16,240 foot or the arm at any instant in time 373 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,069 foot or the arm at any instant in time and with this information the scientists 374 00:10:18,069 --> 00:10:18,079 and with this information the scientists 375 00:10:18,079 --> 00:10:20,949 and with this information the scientists on the ground can understand how muscle 376 00:10:20,949 --> 00:10:20,959 on the ground can understand how muscle 377 00:10:20,959 --> 00:10:22,470 on the ground can understand how muscle performance is adapting to 378 00:10:22,470 --> 00:10:22,480 performance is adapting to 379 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,069 performance is adapting to weightlessness 380 00:10:24,069 --> 00:10:24,079 weightlessness 381 00:10:24,079 --> 00:10:25,829 weightlessness for example they can look at the results 382 00:10:25,829 --> 00:10:25,839 for example they can look at the results 383 00:10:25,839 --> 00:10:27,750 for example they can look at the results coming out of this machine here and 384 00:10:27,750 --> 00:10:27,760 coming out of this machine here and 385 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:29,269 coming out of this machine here and understand what's happening at the level 386 00:10:29,269 --> 00:10:29,279 understand what's happening at the level 387 00:10:29,279 --> 00:10:31,670 understand what's happening at the level of muscle 388 00:10:31,670 --> 00:10:31,680 of muscle 389 00:10:31,680 --> 00:10:33,110 of muscle there fibers two types of muscle fibers 390 00:10:33,110 --> 00:10:33,120 there fibers two types of muscle fibers 391 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,069 there fibers two types of muscle fibers in our body we have fast twitch fibers 392 00:10:36,069 --> 00:10:36,079 in our body we have fast twitch fibers 393 00:10:36,079 --> 00:10:38,389 in our body we have fast twitch fibers and we have slow twitch fibers 394 00:10:38,389 --> 00:10:38,399 and we have slow twitch fibers 395 00:10:38,399 --> 00:10:40,870 and we have slow twitch fibers fast twitch fibers contract muscles very 396 00:10:40,870 --> 00:10:40,880 fast twitch fibers contract muscles very 397 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,990 fast twitch fibers contract muscles very quickly but they fatigued quite readily 398 00:10:43,990 --> 00:10:44,000 quickly but they fatigued quite readily 399 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,310 quickly but they fatigued quite readily slow twitch fibers on the other hand 400 00:10:46,310 --> 00:10:46,320 slow twitch fibers on the other hand 401 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,389 slow twitch fibers on the other hand contract more slowly but they have a lot 402 00:10:48,389 --> 00:10:48,399 contract more slowly but they have a lot 403 00:10:48,399 --> 00:10:50,470 contract more slowly but they have a lot more endurance 404 00:10:50,470 --> 00:10:50,480 more endurance 405 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:54,069 more endurance the lms scientists theorize that 406 00:10:54,069 --> 00:10:54,079 the lms scientists theorize that 407 00:10:54,079 --> 00:10:57,190 the lms scientists theorize that during our 17 days here in space that 408 00:10:57,190 --> 00:10:57,200 during our 17 days here in space that 409 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:57,990 during our 17 days here in space that our 410 00:10:57,990 --> 00:10:58,000 our 411 00:10:58,000 --> 00:10:59,910 our slow muscle fibers are going to take on 412 00:10:59,910 --> 00:10:59,920 slow muscle fibers are going to take on 413 00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:02,310 slow muscle fibers are going to take on properties of fast muscle fibers 414 00:11:02,310 --> 00:11:02,320 properties of fast muscle fibers 415 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:03,350 properties of fast muscle fibers that means that they'll be able to 416 00:11:03,350 --> 00:11:03,360 that means that they'll be able to 417 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:04,790 that means that they'll be able to contract quicker but they'll be more 418 00:11:04,790 --> 00:11:04,800 contract quicker but they'll be more 419 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,670 contract quicker but they'll be more fatiguable 420 00:11:07,670 --> 00:11:07,680 421 00:11:07,680 --> 00:11:09,829 but the muscle wasting and the loss of 422 00:11:09,829 --> 00:11:09,839 but the muscle wasting and the loss of 423 00:11:09,839 --> 00:11:12,230 but the muscle wasting and the loss of strength is not totally explained by the 424 00:11:12,230 --> 00:11:12,240 strength is not totally explained by the 425 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,069 strength is not totally explained by the fact that changes occur at the level of 426 00:11:14,069 --> 00:11:14,079 fact that changes occur at the level of 427 00:11:14,079 --> 00:11:15,509 fact that changes occur at the level of muscle fibers 428 00:11:15,509 --> 00:11:15,519 muscle fibers 429 00:11:15,519 --> 00:11:17,509 muscle fibers there must be other changes going on as 430 00:11:17,509 --> 00:11:17,519 there must be other changes going on as 431 00:11:17,519 --> 00:11:19,269 there must be other changes going on as well and therefore we have some 432 00:11:19,269 --> 00:11:19,279 well and therefore we have some 433 00:11:19,279 --> 00:11:21,269 well and therefore we have some investigators who are looking at changes 434 00:11:21,269 --> 00:11:21,279 investigators who are looking at changes 435 00:11:21,279 --> 00:11:22,949 investigators who are looking at changes at the hormonal level 436 00:11:22,949 --> 00:11:22,959 at the hormonal level 437 00:11:22,959 --> 00:11:25,670 at the hormonal level and the neurological level as well for 438 00:11:25,670 --> 00:11:25,680 and the neurological level as well for 439 00:11:25,680 --> 00:11:27,670 and the neurological level as well for instance we have one particular group 440 00:11:27,670 --> 00:11:27,680 instance we have one particular group 441 00:11:27,680 --> 00:11:30,949 instance we have one particular group from ucla we're looking at the level of 442 00:11:30,949 --> 00:11:30,959 from ucla we're looking at the level of 443 00:11:30,959 --> 00:11:33,590 from ucla we're looking at the level of neurological activation required to 444 00:11:33,590 --> 00:11:33,600 neurological activation required to 445 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:37,910 neurological activation required to energize the muscles in our legs 446 00:11:37,910 --> 00:11:37,920 energize the muscles in our legs 447 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:39,829 energize the muscles in our legs because of all the electrodes that we 448 00:11:39,829 --> 00:11:39,839 because of all the electrodes that we 449 00:11:39,839 --> 00:11:41,269 because of all the electrodes that we wear on our body 450 00:11:41,269 --> 00:11:41,279 wear on our body 451 00:11:41,279 --> 00:11:43,350 wear on our body and because of all the blood samples and 452 00:11:43,350 --> 00:11:43,360 and because of all the blood samples and 453 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,750 and because of all the blood samples and muscle biopsies that are taken from us 454 00:11:45,750 --> 00:11:45,760 muscle biopsies that are taken from us 455 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:47,110 muscle biopsies that are taken from us and because of the fact that we spend a 456 00:11:47,110 --> 00:11:47,120 and because of the fact that we spend a 457 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,910 and because of the fact that we spend a lot of time inside the tvd every day we 458 00:11:49,910 --> 00:11:49,920 lot of time inside the tvd every day we 459 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:51,829 lot of time inside the tvd every day we light-heartedly refer to ourselves as 460 00:11:51,829 --> 00:11:51,839 light-heartedly refer to ourselves as 461 00:11:51,839 --> 00:11:54,870 light-heartedly refer to ourselves as the rat crew as in laboratory rats 462 00:11:54,870 --> 00:11:54,880 the rat crew as in laboratory rats 463 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:56,790 the rat crew as in laboratory rats however we and the scientists on the 464 00:11:56,790 --> 00:11:56,800 however we and the scientists on the 465 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:58,949 however we and the scientists on the ground fully expect the results coming 466 00:11:58,949 --> 00:11:58,959 ground fully expect the results coming 467 00:11:58,959 --> 00:12:00,470 ground fully expect the results coming out of the muscle physiology set of 468 00:12:00,470 --> 00:12:00,480 out of the muscle physiology set of 469 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,230 out of the muscle physiology set of experiments will go a long way to 470 00:12:02,230 --> 00:12:02,240 experiments will go a long way to 471 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,389 experiments will go a long way to helping us understand the adaptation of 472 00:12:04,389 --> 00:12:04,399 helping us understand the adaptation of 473 00:12:04,399 --> 00:12:06,310 helping us understand the adaptation of muscles to weightlessness 474 00:12:06,310 --> 00:12:06,320 muscles to weightlessness 475 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:07,910 muscles to weightlessness and in the future we're going to be able 476 00:12:07,910 --> 00:12:07,920 and in the future we're going to be able 477 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,230 and in the future we're going to be able to provide counter measures for 478 00:12:10,230 --> 00:12:10,240 to provide counter measures for 479 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:11,990 to provide counter measures for astronauts flying on the international 480 00:12:11,990 --> 00:12:12,000 astronauts flying on the international 481 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,710 astronauts flying on the international space station and on exploratory 482 00:12:14,710 --> 00:12:14,720 space station and on exploratory 483 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:16,710 space station and on exploratory missions to the

00:12:18,629 --> 00:12:18,639 and we also expect that some of the 487 00:12:18,639 --> 00:12:20,629 and we also expect that some of the results coming out from the muscle 488 00:12:20,629 --> 00:12:20,639 results coming out from the muscle 489 00:12:20,639 --> 00:12:23,990 results coming out from the muscle physiology work will have application to 490 00:12:23,990 --> 00:12:24,000 physiology work will have application to 491 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,230 physiology work will have application to uh rehabilitation programs on earth for 492 00:12:26,230 --> 00:12:26,240 uh rehabilitation programs on earth for 493 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,949 uh rehabilitation programs on earth for spinal cord injured patients and also 494 00:12:28,949 --> 00:12:28,959 spinal cord injured patients and also 495 00:12:28,959 --> 00:12:30,310 spinal cord injured patients and also patients who suffer from muscle 496 00:12:30,310 --> 00:12:30,320 patients who suffer from muscle 497
