you're doing some pretty important 142 00:05:57,909 --> 00:05:57,919 you're doing some pretty important 143 00:05:57,919 --> 00:05:59,430 you're doing some pretty important experiment uh 144 00:05:59,430 --> 00:05:59,440 experiment uh 145 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,590 experiment uh there for for us can you describe some 146 00:06:01,590 --> 00:06:01,600 there for for us can you describe some 147 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:02,790 there for for us can you describe some of it for 148 00:06:02,790 --> 00:06:02,800 of it for 149 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:07,110 of it for for other canadians who are watching 150 00:06:07,110 --> 00:06:07,120 for other canadians who are watching 151 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,670 for other canadians who are watching sure in fact the main experiments that 152 00:06:09,670 --> 00:06:09,680 sure in fact the main experiments that 153 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:11,830 sure in fact the main experiments that i'm involved in up here is testing what 154 00:06:11,830 --> 00:06:11,840 i'm involved in up here is testing what 155 00:06:11,840 --> 00:06:13,670 i'm involved in up here is testing what we call the microgravity vibration 156 00:06:13,670 --> 00:06:13,680 we call the microgravity vibration 157 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,189 we call the microgravity vibration isolation mode 158 00:06:15,189 --> 00:06:15,199 isolation mode 159 00:06:15,199 --> 00:06:17,189 isolation mode and this is a system that isolates 160 00:06:17,189 --> 00:06:17,199 and this is a system that isolates 161 00:06:17,199 --> 00:06:19,029 and this is a system that isolates experiments fluid physics material 162 00:06:19,029 --> 00:06:19,039 experiments fluid physics material 163 00:06:19,039 --> 00:06:20,790 experiments fluid physics material science experiments protein crystal 164 00:06:20,790 --> 00:06:20,800 science experiments protein crystal 165 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,710 science experiments protein crystal growth experiments of the type that 166 00:06:22,710 --> 00:06:22,720 growth experiments of the type that 167 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,070 growth experiments of the type that we're going to do on the space station 168 00:06:24,070 --> 00:06:24,080 we're going to do on the space station 169 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,469 we're going to do on the space station starting sometime after next year it 170 00:06:26,469 --> 00:06:26,479 starting sometime after next year it 171 00:06:26,479 --> 00:06:28,309 starting sometime after next year it isolates them from the vibrations that 172 00:06:28,309 --> 00:06:28,319 isolates them from the vibrations that 173 00:06:28,319 --> 00:06:29,670 isolates them from the vibrations that are 174 00:06:29,670 --> 00:06:29,680 are 175 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,590 are in the spacecraft itself 176 00:06:31,590 --> 00:06:31,600 in the spacecraft itself 177 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,430 in the spacecraft itself you spend a fair bit of effort getting 178 00:06:33,430 --> 00:06:33,440 you spend a fair bit of effort getting 179 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,350 you spend a fair bit of effort getting experiments into the nice environment 180 00:06:35,350 --> 00:06:35,360 experiments into the nice environment 181 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,110 experiments into the nice environment here in space to add to the kind of 182 00:06:37,110 --> 00:06:37,120 here in space to add to the kind of 183 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,189 here in space to add to the kind of things you can do at laps on the ground 184 00:06:39,189 --> 00:06:39,199 things you can do at laps on the ground 185 00:06:39,199 --> 00:06:41,350 things you can do at laps on the ground and now this last little bit actually 186 00:06:41,350 --> 00:06:41,360 and now this last little bit actually 187 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:42,790 and now this last little bit actually just cleans the environment up for the 188 00:06:42,790 --> 00:06:42,800 just cleans the environment up for the 189 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,710 just cleans the environment up for the experiments uh just that last little 190 00:06:44,710 --> 00:06:44,720 experiments uh just that last little 191 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:46,309 experiments uh just that last little tweak to get it right down to the micro 192 00:06:46,309 --> 00:06:46,319 tweak to get it right down to the micro 193 00:06:46,319 --> 00:06:48,790 tweak to get it right down to the micro g acceleration level

then are you using canadarm 215 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,390 good then are you using canadarm you know the our arm that 216 00:07:12,390 --> 00:07:12,400 you know the our arm that 217 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:13,830 you know the our arm that we see 218 00:07:13,830 --> 00:07:13,840 we see 219 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:15,749 we see being used in this trip so do you use 220 00:07:15,749 --> 00:07:15,759 being used in this trip so do you use 221 00:07:15,759 --> 00:07:17,029 being used in this trip so do you use the one that 222 00:07:17,029 --> 00:07:17,039 the one that 223 00:07:17,039 --> 00:07:20,390 the one that on district 224 00:07:20,390 --> 00:07:20,400 225 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:21,990 yeah in fact we use the canada arm on 226 00:07:21,990 --> 00:07:22,000 yeah in fact we use the canada arm on 227 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,909 yeah in fact we use the canada arm on the very first day of the flight uh you 228 00:07:23,909 --> 00:07:23,919 the very first day of the flight uh you 229 00:07:23,919 --> 00:07:26,469 the very first day of the flight uh you know a few hours after an orbit here to 230 00:07:26,469 --> 00:07:26,479 know a few hours after an orbit here to 231 00:07:26,479 --> 00:07:28,309 know a few hours after an orbit here to launch the crystal spa satellite which 232 00:07:28,309 --> 00:07:28,319 launch the crystal spa satellite which 233 00:07:28,319 --> 00:07:30,550 launch the crystal spa satellite which is co-orbiting with us about 40 miles 234 00:07:30,550 --> 00:07:30,560 is co-orbiting with us about 40 miles 235 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,790 is co-orbiting with us about 40 miles behind us right now and it's actually 236 00:07:32,790 --> 00:07:32,800 behind us right now and it's actually 237 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,309 behind us right now and it's actually doing a lot of measurements of the upper 238 00:07:34,309 --> 00:07:34,319 doing a lot of measurements of the upper 239 00:07:34,319 --> 00:07:36,070 doing a lot of measurements of the upper atmosphere to better understand the 240 00:07:36,070 --> 00:07:36,080 atmosphere to better understand the 241 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:37,749 atmosphere to better understand the dynamics of the upper atmosphere and the 242 00:07:37,749 --> 00:07:37,759 dynamics of the upper atmosphere and the 243 00:07:37,759 --> 00:07:38,790 dynamics of the upper atmosphere and the ozone 244

half feet long and just about the 383 00:10:03,680 --> 00:10:05,509 a half feet long and just about the diameter of the window we point the 384 00:10:05,509 --> 00:10:05,519 diameter of the window we point the 385 00:10:05,519 --> 00:10:07,030 diameter of the window we point the whole shuttle we don't point just the 386 00:10:07,030 --> 00:10:07,040 whole shuttle we don't point just the 387 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:08,550 whole shuttle we don't point just the telescope we point the whole shuttle of 388 00:10:08,550 --> 00:10:08,560 telescope we point the whole shuttle of 389 00:10:08,560 --> 00:10:10,070 telescope we point the whole shuttle of the comet 390 00:10:10,070 --> 00:10:10,080 the comet 391 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:11,990 the comet and then it has a very highly 392 00:10:11,990 --> 00:10:12,000 and then it has a very highly 393 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,710 and then it has a very highly intensified uh 394 00:10:14,710 --> 00:10:14,720 intensified uh 395 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,430 intensified uh ccd camera that has a digital camera on 396 00:10:17,430 --> 00:10:17,440 ccd camera that has a digital camera on 397 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:18,550 ccd camera that has a digital camera on the back of it 398 00:10:18,550 --> 00:10:18,560 the back of it 399 00:10:18,560 --> 00:10:20,949 the back of it and it's enabled to look at the comet in 400 00:10:20,949 --> 00:10:20,959 and it's enabled to look at the comet in 401 00:10:20,959 --> 00:10:22,870 and it's enabled to look at the comet in the ultraviolet spectrum and that is 402 00:10:22,870 --> 00:10:22,880 the ultraviolet spectrum and that is 403 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:24,710 the ultraviolet spectrum and that is something we cannot do from earth 404 00:10:24,710 --> 00:10:24,720 something we cannot do from earth 405 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,190 something we cannot do from earth because the atmosphere protects 406 00:10:27,190 --> 00:10:27,200 because the atmosphere protects 407 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:28,949 because the atmosphere protects us earthlings and everything on the 408 00:10:28,949 --> 00:10:28,959 us earthlings and everything on the 409 00:10:28,959 --> 00:10:30,790 us earthlings and everything on the earth from the ultraviolet rays of the 410 00:10:30,790 --> 00:10:30,800 earth from the ultraviolet rays of the 411 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:31,590 earth from the ultraviolet rays of the sun 412 00:10:31,590 --> 00:10:31,600 sun 413 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,509 sun but it also keeps us from learning about 414 00:10:33,509 --> 00:10:33,519 but it also keeps us from learning about 415 00:10:33,519 --> 00:10:35,829 but it also keeps us from learning about the ultraviolet spectrum of astronomical 416 00:10:35,829 --> 00:10:35,839 the ultraviolet spectrum of astronomical 417 00:10:35,839 --> 00:10:37,990 the ultraviolet spectrum of astronomical bodies like the comet hail bob 418 00:10:37,990 --> 00:10:38,000 bodies like the comet hail bob 419 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:39,590 bodies like the comet hail bob we've got we've asked our viewers to 420 00:10:39,590 --> 00:10:39,600 we've got we've asked our viewers to 421 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,110 we've got we've asked our viewers to join in with questions and we've got a 422 00:10:41,110 --> 00:10:41,120 join in with questions and we've got a 423 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:42,790 join in with questions and we've got a great one from a 12 year old aaron 424 00:10:42,790 --> 00:10:42,800 great one from a 12 year old aaron 425 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,430 great one from a 12 year old aaron hendry sent us an email asking if hale 426 00:10:45,430 --> 00:10:45,440 hendry sent us an email asking if hale 427 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,230 hendry sent us an email asking if hale bop looks the same from up there as it 428 00:10:48,230 --> 00:10:48,240 bop looks the same from up there as it 429 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,310 bop looks the same from up there as it did from here on earth 430 00:10:52,310 --> 00:10:52,320 431 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:53,910 eric that's an excellent question and 432 00:10:53,910 --> 00:10:53,920 eric that's an excellent question and 433 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:55,990 eric that's an excellent question and there's a question i had until about a 434 00:10:55,990 --> 00:10:56,000 there's a question i had until about a 435 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,069 there's a question i had until about a few days ago when i was able to see 436 00:10:58,069 --> 00:10:58,079 few days ago when i was able to see 437 00:10:58,079 --> 00:11:01,030 few days ago when i was able to see hillbop through the telescope here now 438 00:11:01,030 --> 00:11:01,040 hillbop through the telescope here now 439 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,030 hillbop through the telescope here now one thing is back in march or so hillbop 440 00:11:03,030 --> 00:11:03,040 one thing is back in march or so hillbop 441 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,670 one thing is back in march or so hillbop was nearer to the earth and to the sun 442 00:11:05,670 --> 00:11:05,680 was nearer to the earth and to the sun 443 00:11:05,680 --> 00:11:07,030 was nearer to the earth and to the sun and so we were able to see it more 444 00:11:07,030 --> 00:11:07,040 and so we were able to see it more 445 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,269 and so we were able to see it more brightly and it had a longer tail 446 00:11:09,269 --> 00:11:09,279 brightly and it had a longer tail 447 00:11:09,279 --> 00:11:11,269 brightly and it had a longer tail uh now it's about twice as far away from 448 00:11:11,269 --> 00:11:11,279 uh now it's about twice as far away from 449 00:11:11,279 --> 00:11:13,430 uh now it's about twice as far away from the sun as it was then so it's not as 450 00:11:13,430 --> 00:11:13,440 the sun as it was then so it's not as 451 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:15,750 the sun as it was then so it's not as bright the tail is not as big but still 452 00:11:15,750 --> 00:11:15,760 bright the tail is not as big but still 453 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,389 bright the tail is not as big but still it's it's relatively close to us 454 00:11:18,389 --> 00:11:18,399 it's it's relatively close to us 455 00:11:18,399 --> 00:11:19,350 it's it's relatively close to us and 456 00:11:19,350 --> 00:11:19,360 and 457 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,110 and we can see it much more clearly from 458 00:11:21,110 --> 00:11:21,120 we can see it much more clearly from 459 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,269 we can see it much more clearly from space because the atmosphere doesn't 460 00:11:23,269 --> 00:11:23,279 space because the atmosphere doesn't 461 00:11:23,279 --> 00:11:25,509 space because the atmosphere doesn't diffuse the light and also you don't 462 00:11:25,509 --> 00:11:25,519 diffuse the light and also you don't 463 00:11:25,519 --> 00:11:27,030 diffuse the light and also you don't have to get up real early in the morning 464 00:11:27,030 --> 00:11:27,040 have to get up real early in the morning 465 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:28,310 have to get up real early in the morning like you do you're going around the 466 00:11:28,310 --> 00:11:28,320 like you do you're going around the 467 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,430 like you do you're going around the earth so many so so fast that you can 468 00:11:31,430 --> 00:11:31,440 earth so many so so fast that you can 469 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,190 earth so many so so fast that you can stay in bed to a reasonable time of day 470 00:11:33,190 --> 00:11:33,200 stay in bed to a reasonable time of day 471 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,190 stay in bed to a reasonable time of day i know you'll appreciate this eric 472 00:11:35,190 --> 00:11:35,200 i know you'll appreciate this eric 473 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:36,069 i know you'll appreciate this eric and 474 00:11:36,069 --> 00:11:36,079 and 475 00:11:36,079 --> 00:11:37,350 and then you can get up and still see the 476 00:11:37,350 --> 00:11:37,360 then you can get up and still see the 477 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:38,710 then you can get up and still see the comment 478 00:11:38,710 --> 00:11:38,720 comment 479 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:40,790 comment thanks steve one of the main purposes of 480 00:11:40,790 --> 00:11:40,800 thanks steve one of the main purposes of 481 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,509 thanks steve one of the main purposes of this flight is to test the new japanese 482 00:11:43,509 --> 00:11:43,519 this flight is to test the new japanese 483 00:11:43,519 --> 00:11:46,069 this flight is to test the new japanese robot arm i call it the mini arm it goes 484 00:11:46,069 --> 00:11:46,079 robot arm i call it the mini arm it goes 485 00:11:46,079 --> 00:11:47,750 robot arm i call it the mini arm it goes out at the end of i guess the other 486 00:11:47,750 --> 00:11:47,760 out at the end of i guess the other 487 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:49,670 out at the end of i guess the other robot arm it would be attached to the 488 00:11:49,670 --> 00:11:49,680 robot arm it would be attached to the 489 00:11:49,680 --> 00:11:51,990 robot arm it would be attached to the international space station someday to 490 00:11:51,990 --> 00:11:52,000 international space station someday to 491 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,069 international space station someday to repair and replace pieces of the new 492 00:11:54,069 --> 00:11:54,079 repair and replace pieces of the new 493 00:11:54,079 --> 00:11:56,310 repair and replace pieces of the new international space station without 494 00:11:56,310 --> 00:11:56,320 international space station without 495 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,310 international space station without making astronauts like you go outside to 496 00:11:58,310 --> 00:11:58,320 making astronauts like you go outside to 497 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,630 making astronauts like you go outside to do it what do you think of the robot arm 498 00:12:00,630 --> 00:12:00,640 do it what do you think of the robot arm 499 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:06,550 do it what do you think of the robot arm in its operation so far any surprises 500 00:12:06,550 --> 00:12:06,560 501 00:12:06,560 --> 00:12:08,829 well john we've had a really 502 00:12:08,829 --> 00:12:08,839 well john we've had a really 503 00:12:08,839 --> 00:12:11,509 well john we've had a really educational uh 504 00:12:11,509 --> 00:12:11,519 educational uh 505 00:12:11,519 --> 00:12:13,430 educational uh experience in flying this arm for the 506 00:12:13,430 --> 00:12:13,440 experience in flying this arm for the 507 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,670 experience in flying this arm for the first time you're right this is the uh 508 00:12:15,670 --> 00:12:15,680 first time you're right this is the uh 509 00:12:15,680 --> 00:12:18,470 first time you're right this is the uh the prototype for this small fine arm as 510 00:12:18,470 --> 00:12:18,480 the prototype for this small fine arm as 511 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,069 the prototype for this small fine arm as it's called it will go on the end of a 512 00:12:20,069 --> 00:12:20,079 it's called it will go on the end of a 513 00:12:20,079 --> 00:12:21,110 it's called it will go on the end of a long 514 00:12:21,110 --> 00:12:21,120 long 515 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,110 long arm that will go on the japanese 516 00:12:23,110 --> 00:12:23,120 arm that will go on the japanese 517 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,269 arm that will go on the japanese experiment module when the international 518 00:12:25,269 --> 00:12:25,279 experiment module when the international 519 00:12:25,279 --> 00:12:27,030 experiment module when the international space station is put together up to that 520 00:12:27,030 --> 00:12:27,040 space station is put together up to that 521 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,670 space station is put together up to that point so this is in a few years from now 522 00:12:29,670 --> 00:12:29,680 point so this is in a few years from now 523 00:12:29,680 --> 00:12:31,430 point so this is in a few years from now and this is the flight test of the small 524 00:12:31,430 --> 00:12:31,440 and this is the flight test of the small 525 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,190 and this is the flight test of the small fine arms so it's quite dexterous in 526 00:12:33,190 --> 00:12:33,200 fine arms so it's quite dexterous in 527 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:34,470 fine arms so it's quite dexterous in other words it could do a lot of things 528 00:12:34,470 --> 00:12:34,480 other words it could do a lot of things 529 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,110 other words it could do a lot of things with this with its uh joints it's fairly 530 00:12:37,110 --> 00:12:37,120 with this with its uh joints it's fairly 531 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:38,949 with this with its uh joints it's fairly small it's only about 532 00:12:38,949 --> 00:12:38,959 small it's only about 533 00:12:38,959 --> 00:12:40,550 small it's only about a meter and a half to two meters long 534 00:12:40,550 --> 00:12:40,560 a meter and a half to two meters long 535 00:12:40,560 --> 00:12:42,550 a meter and a half to two meters long depending on how you stretch it out but 536 00:12:42,550 --> 00:12:42,560 depending on how you stretch it out but 537 00:12:42,560 --> 00:12:43,990 depending on how you stretch it out but it has uh 538 00:12:43,990 --> 00:12:44,000 it has uh 539 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,750 it has uh six degrees of freedom in the joints in 540 00:12:45,750 --> 00:12:45,760 six degrees of freedom in the joints in 541 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:47,030 six degrees of freedom in the joints in other words you can move it around just 542 00:12:47,030 --> 00:12:47,040 other words you can move it around just 543 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:48,870 other words you can move it around just about like your arm it's almost hard to 544 00:12:48,870 --> 00:12:48,880 about like your arm it's almost hard to 545 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:50,150 about like your arm it's almost hard to talk about the arm without taking your 546 00:12:50,150 --> 00:12:50,160 talk about the arm without taking your 547 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:51,590 talk about the arm without taking your arm out and moving it around because 548 00:12:51,590 --> 00:12:51,600 arm out and moving it around because 549 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:52,949 arm out and moving it around because that's just about what you do with the 550 00:12:52,949 --> 00:12:52,959 that's just about what you do with the 551 00:12:52,959 --> 00:12:54,389 that's just about what you do with the hand controllers 552 00:12:54,389 --> 00:12:54,399 hand controllers 553 00:12:54,399 --> 00:12:55,430 hand controllers and uh 554 00:12:55,430 --> 00:12:55,440 and uh 555 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:56,310 and uh dan 556 00:12:56,310 --> 00:12:56,320 dan 557 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,550 dan and i have had a great time first of all 558 00:12:58,550 --> 00:12:58,560 and i have had a great time first of all 559 00:12:58,560 --> 00:13:00,710 and i have had a great time first of all training for the flight we've gone to 560 00:13:00,710 --> 00:13:00,720 training for the flight we've gone to 561 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,030 training for the flight we've gone to the tokyo area twice to train on the 562 00:13:03,030 --> 00:13:03,040 the tokyo area twice to train on the 563 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:04,949 the tokyo area twice to train on the japanese hardware we have lots of 564 00:13:04,949 --> 00:13:04,959 japanese hardware we have lots of 565 00:13:04,959 --> 00:13:06,870 japanese hardware we have lots of japanese software and hardware here in 566 00:13:06,870 --> 00:13:06,880 japanese software and hardware here in 567 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:08,790 japanese software and hardware here in houston or down in houston that we've 568 00:13:08,790 --> 00:13:08,800 houston or down in houston that we've 569 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,790 houston or down in houston that we've trained on for many months and finally 570 00:13:10,790 --> 00:13:10,800 trained on for many months and finally 571 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:12,790 trained on for many months and finally it's been a really great experience to 572 00:13:12,790 --> 00:13:12,800 it's been a really great experience to 573 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:14,870 it's been a really great experience to come up and test the space hardware 574 00:13:14,870 --> 00:13:14,880 come up and test the space hardware 575 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,310 come up and test the space hardware that's going to be 576 00:13:16,310 --> 00:13:16,320 that's going to be 577 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:17,190 that's going to be built 578 00:13:17,190 --> 00:13:17,200 built 579 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,350 built in in final form for the international 580 00:13:19,350 --> 00:13:19,360 in in final form for the international 581 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:20,949 in in final form for the international space station in a couple years and let 582 00:13:20,949 --> 00:13:20,959 space station in a couple years and let 583 00:13:20,959 --> 00:13:22,550 space station in a couple years and let me just say that we've learned a lot 584 00:13:22,550 --> 00:13:22,560 me just say that we've learned a lot 585 00:13:22,560 --> 00:13:24,550 me just say that we've learned a lot about the arm yes a couple of surprises 586 00:13:24,550 --> 00:13:24,560 about the arm yes a couple of surprises 587 00:13:24,560 --> 00:13:26,790 about the arm yes a couple of surprises but in general it's really worked great 588 00:13:26,790 --> 00:13:26,800 but in general it's really worked great 589 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:28,870 but in general it's really worked great a fine piece of engineering this viewer 590 00:13:28,870 --> 00:13:28,880 a fine piece of engineering this viewer 591 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,190 a fine piece of engineering this viewer wants to know what kind of philosophical 592 00:13:31,190 --> 00:13:31,200 wants to know what kind of philosophical 593 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:32,949 wants to know what kind of philosophical thoughts come to mind when you're in 594 00:13:32,949 --> 00:13:32,959 thoughts come to mind when you're in 595 00:13:32,959 --> 00:13:34,470 thoughts come to mind when you're in space maybe thoughts that wouldn't come 596 00:13:34,470 --> 00:13:34,480 space maybe thoughts that wouldn't come 597 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:39,590 space maybe thoughts that wouldn't come to mind when you're down here on earth 598 00:13:39,590 --> 00:13:39,600 599 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:41,269 that's an easy one john lots of them do 600 00:13:41,269 --> 00:13:41,279 that's an easy one john lots of them do 601 00:13:41,279 --> 00:13:42,949 that's an easy one john lots of them do when you look out the window the first 602 00:13:42,949 --> 00:13:42,959 when you look out the window the first 603 00:13:42,959 --> 00:13:44,949 when you look out the window the first time you look out there 604 00:13:44,949 --> 00:13:44,959 time you look out there 605 00:13:44,959 --> 00:13:47,269 time you look out there to me the first thing that really 606 00:13:47,269 --> 00:13:47,279 to me the first thing that really 607 00:13:47,279 --> 00:13:49,430 to me the first thing that really occurred to me was how small each of us 608 00:13:49,430 --> 00:13:49,440 occurred to me was how small each of us 609 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,829 occurred to me was how small each of us humans really are the heavens 610 00:13:51,829 --> 00:13:51,839 humans really are the heavens 611 00:13:51,839 --> 00:13:53,829 humans really are the heavens are very large they're huge 612 00:13:53,829 --> 00:13:53,839 are very large they're huge 613 00:13:53,839 --> 00:13:55,590 are very large they're huge and the earth is huge 614 00:13:55,590 --> 00:13:55,600 and the earth is huge 615 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:57,189 and the earth is huge and when we're on the ground we tend to 616 00:13:57,189 --> 00:13:57,199 and when we're on the ground we tend to 617 00:13:57,199 --> 00:13:58,230 and when we're on the ground we tend to think 618 00:13:58,230 --> 00:13:58,240 think 619 00:13:58,240 --> 00:13:59,670 think you know we're busy and we're 620 00:13:59,670 --> 00:13:59,680 you know we're busy and we're 621 00:13:59,680 --> 00:14:01,350 you know we're busy and we're responsible and we have lots to do and 622 00:14:01,350 --> 00:14:01,360 responsible and we have lots to do and 623 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:02,949 responsible and we have lots to do and we tend to think that we're the center 624 00:14:02,949 --> 00:14:02,959 we tend to think that we're the center 625 00:14:02,959 --> 00:14:05,269 we tend to think that we're the center of importance and you sort of have to 626 00:14:05,269 --> 00:14:05,279 of importance and you sort of have to 627 00:14:05,279 --> 00:14:06,310 of importance and you sort of have to but 628 00:14:06,310 --> 00:14:06,320 but 629 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:07,670 but let me tell you when you get ready for a 630 00:14:07,670 --> 00:14:07,680 let me tell you when you get ready for a 631 00:14:07,680 --> 00:14:09,910 let me tell you when you get ready for a space flight you realize that first of 632 00:14:09,910 --> 00:14:09,920 space flight you realize that first of 633 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:10,550 space flight you realize that first of all 634 00:14:10,550 --> 00:14:10,560 all 635 00:14:10,560 --> 00:14:12,150 all thousands of people are helping you get 636 00:14:12,150 --> 00:14:12,160 thousands of people are helping you get 637 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,550 thousands of people are helping you get ready for the flight and assuring your 638 00:14:14,550 --> 00:14:14,560 ready for the flight and assuring your 639 00:14:14,560 --> 00:14:16,550 ready for the flight and assuring your safety and doing the engineering and all 640 00:14:16,550 --> 00:14:16,560 safety and doing the engineering and all 641 00:14:16,560 --> 00:14:18,870 safety and doing the engineering and all the checks and you're the beneficiary of 642 00:14:18,870 --> 00:14:18,880 the checks and you're the beneficiary of 643 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,030 the checks and you're the beneficiary of that then you get up above the earth you 644 00:14:21,030 --> 00:14:21,040 that then you get up above the earth you 645 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,430 that then you get up above the earth you look down on the beautiful earth 646 00:14:23,430 --> 00:14:23,440 look down on the beautiful earth 647 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:26,150 look down on the beautiful earth and you see evidence of 648 00:14:26,150 --> 00:14:26,160 and you see evidence of 649 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,949 and you see evidence of of mankind down on the earth both good 650 00:14:28,949 --> 00:14:28,959 of mankind down on the earth both good 651 00:14:28,959 --> 00:14:31,110 of mankind down on the earth both good and bad and you look out in the heavens 652 00:14:31,110 --> 00:14:31,120 and bad and you look out in the heavens 653 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,269 and bad and you look out in the heavens you see the comet you see the moon you 654 00:14:33,269 --> 00:14:33,279 you see the comet you see the moon you 655 00:14:33,279 --> 00:14:34,790 you see the comet you see the moon you see the stars 656 00:14:34,790 --> 00:14:34,800 see the stars 657 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:36,629 see the stars rising and setting over the earth's limb 658 00:14:36,629 --> 00:14:36,639 rising and setting over the earth's limb 659 00:14:36,639 --> 00:14:38,069 rising and setting over the earth's limb you realize that you really are very 660 00:14:38,069 --> 00:14:38,079 you realize that you really are very 661 00:14:38,079 --> 00:15:56,310 you realize that you really are very small and very very lucky 662 00:15:56,310 --> 00:15:56,320 663 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,399 you
