about space flight has been so far and
 

85
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:08,230
about space flight has been so far and
i'm thinking more of the day-to-day

i'm thinking more of the day-to-day
 

87
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,230
i'm thinking more of the day-to-day
stuff not necessarily the scientific

88
00:05:10,230 --> 00:05:10,240
stuff not necessarily the scientific
 

89
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:20,150
stuff not necessarily the scientific
experiments

90
00:05:20,150 --> 00:05:20,160

 

91
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:24,629

this is steve robinson i'm a rookie and

this is steve robinson i'm a rookie and
 

93
00:05:24,639 --> 00:05:26,230
this is steve robinson i'm a rookie and
i think one of the biggest surprises has

94
00:05:26,230 --> 00:05:26,240
i think one of the biggest surprises has
 

95
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:27,909
i think one of the biggest surprises has
certainly been the uh

96
00:05:27,909 --> 00:05:27,919
certainly been the uh
 

97

uh how much fun and how how initially
 

99
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,189
uh how much fun and how how initially
awkward it could be floating around in

100
00:05:33,189 --> 00:05:33,199
awkward it could be floating around in
 

101
00:05:33,199 --> 00:05:35,189
awkward it could be floating around in
in in the free fall situation that we

102
00:05:35,189 --> 00:05:35,199
in in the free fall situation that we
 

103
00:05:35,199 --> 00:05:37,590
in in the free fall situation that we
have here and and also how efficient it

104
00:05:37,590 --> 00:05:37,600
have here and and also how efficient it
 

105
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,070
have here and and also how efficient it
can be for storing things it's been uh

106
00:05:40,070 --> 00:05:40,080
can be for storing things it's been uh
 

107

can be for storing things it's been uh
uh we're really going to miss that when

111
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:47,909

and i'm robert i think the biggest

112
00:05:47,909 --> 00:05:47,919
and i'm robert i think the biggest
 

113
00:05:47,919 --> 00:05:50,390
and i'm robert i think the biggest
surprise for me was just

114
00:05:50,390 --> 00:05:50,400
surprise for me was just
 

115
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,629
surprise for me was just
how the day-to-day activities change you

116
00:05:52,629 --> 00:05:52,639
how the day-to-day activities change you
 

117
00:05:52,639 --> 00:05:54,469
how the day-to-day activities change you
know getting getting up in the morning

118
00:05:54,469 --> 00:05:54,479
know getting getting up in the morning
 

119
00:05:54,479 --> 00:05:56,550
know getting getting up in the morning
and washing and getting ready for the

120
00:05:56,550 --> 00:05:56,560
and washing and getting ready for the
 

121
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,390
and washing and getting ready for the
day is a lot different here in space

122
00:05:58,390 --> 00:05:58,400
day is a lot different here in space
 

123
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,710
day is a lot different here in space
obviously there are things that you know

124
00:06:00,710 --> 00:06:00,720
obviously there are things that you know
 

125
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,230
obviously there are things that you know
that we kind of take for granted when

126
00:06:02,230 --> 00:06:02,240
that we kind of take for granted when
 

127
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,230
that we kind of take for granted when
we're in gravity like

128
00:06:04,230 --> 00:06:04,240
we're in gravity like
 

129
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,909
we're in gravity like
spit out your toothpaste and it always

130
00:06:07,909 --> 00:06:07,919

 

131
00:06:07,919 --> 00:06:09,990

so that doesn't happen here so you do

132
00:06:09,990 --> 00:06:10,000
so that doesn't happen here so you do
 

133
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,070
so that doesn't happen here so you do
that a little bit differently and and

134
00:06:12,070 --> 00:06:12,080
that a little bit differently and and
 

135
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:13,670
that a little bit differently and and
the whole morning routine changes

136
00:06:13,670 --> 00:06:13,680
the whole morning routine changes
 

137
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:14,790
the whole morning routine changes
tremendously that was the biggest

138
00:06:14,790 --> 00:06:14,800
tremendously that was the biggest
 

139
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:21,110
tremendously that was the biggest
surprise for me

140
00:06:21,110 --> 00:06:21,120

 

141
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,110

is that beyond a trick within uh i guess

142
00:06:23,110 --> 00:06:23,120
is that beyond a trick within uh i guess
 

143
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:24,550
is that beyond a trick within uh i guess
what i will add to that is after about

144
00:06:24,550 --> 00:06:24,560
what i will add to that is after about
 

145
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,110
what i will add to that is after about
five or six days up here you get kind of

146
00:06:27,110 --> 00:06:27,120
five or six days up here you get kind of
 

147
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,350
five or six days up here you get kind of
uh used to the funny attitudes up here

148
00:06:29,350 --> 00:06:29,360
uh used to the funny attitudes up here
 

149
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,189
uh used to the funny attitudes up here
where up can be anywhere and don't could

150
00:06:31,189 --> 00:06:31,199
where up can be anywhere and don't could
 

151
00:06:31,199 --> 00:06:33,670
where up can be anywhere and don't could
be anywhere and get used to working

152
00:06:33,670 --> 00:06:33,680
be anywhere and get used to working
 

153

upside down and whatever and it feels

154
00:06:36,150 --> 00:06:36,160
upside down and whatever and it feels
 

155
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,870
upside down and whatever and it feels
kind of natural after five or six days

156
00:06:38,870 --> 00:06:38,880
kind of natural after five or six days
 

157
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,110
kind of natural after five or six days
japanese investigators say this is the

158

japanese investigators say this is the
 

159
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,309
japanese investigators say this is the
last space test of the mfd and i'm

160

last space test of the mfd and i'm
wondering do you think it's ready for

162
00:06:45,670 --> 00:06:45,680
wondering do you think it's ready for
 

163
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,270
wondering do you think it's ready for
when it flies next time on the

164
00:06:47,270 --> 00:06:47,280
when it flies next time on the
 

165
00:06:47,280 --> 00:06:48,950
when it flies next time on the
international space station could you

166
00:06:48,950 --> 00:06:48,960
international space station could you
 

167
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:53,510
international space station could you
sort of give a report card please

168
00:06:53,510 --> 00:06:53,520

 

169
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,990

oh i'd give it an a plus it's
really been fun for steve and i to fly

172
00:06:58,309 --> 00:06:58,319
really been fun for steve and i to fly
 

173
00:06:58,319 --> 00:07:00,309
really been fun for steve and i to fly
the arm through all the different

174
00:07:00,309 --> 00:07:00,319
the arm through all the different
 

175
00:07:00,319 --> 00:07:02,629
the arm through all the different
scenarios that we have and it's

176
00:07:02,629 --> 00:07:02,639
scenarios that we have and it's
 

177
00:07:02,639 --> 00:07:04,390
scenarios that we have and it's
performed very well and there are some

178
00:07:04,390 --> 00:07:04,400
performed very well and there are some
 

179
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,950
performed very well and there are some
things we really could not even test on

180
00:07:06,950 --> 00:07:06,960
things we really could not even test on
 

181
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:08,870
things we really could not even test on
the ground some of the compliance

182
00:07:08,870 --> 00:07:08,880
the ground some of the compliance
 

183
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,110
the ground some of the compliance
functions and we sort of feel like test

184
00:07:11,110 --> 00:07:11,120
functions and we sort of feel like test
 

185
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,909
functions and we sort of feel like test
pilots up here trying out the arm and we

186
00:07:13,909 --> 00:07:13,919
pilots up here trying out the arm and we
 

187
00:07:13,919 --> 00:07:15,350
pilots up here trying out the arm and we
have

188
00:07:15,350 --> 00:07:15,360
have
 

189
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,430
have
taken it to the edge of its envelope and

190
00:07:17,430 --> 00:07:17,440
taken it to the edge of its envelope and
 

191
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,510
taken it to the edge of its envelope and
tested every possible mode and i think

192
00:07:19,510 --> 00:07:19,520
tested every possible mode and i think
 

193
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,150
tested every possible mode and i think
we have a lot of good data and we still

194
00:07:22,150 --> 00:07:22,160
we have a lot of good data and we still
 

195
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,230
we have a lot of good data and we still
are learning a lot about it and we'll be

196
00:07:24,230 --> 00:07:24,240
are learning a lot about it and we'll be
 

197
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,749
are learning a lot about it and we'll be
ready for international space station

198
00:07:27,749 --> 00:07:27,759
ready for international space station
 

199
00:07:27,759 --> 00:07:29,510
ready for international space station

question

206
00:07:33,749 --> 00:07:33,759
question
 

207
00:07:33,759 --> 00:07:35,270
question
uh there have been so you know you've

208
00:07:35,270 --> 00:07:35,280
uh there have been so you know you've
 

209
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,029
uh there have been so you know you've
had little problems with the computer

210
00:07:37,029 --> 00:07:37,039
had little problems with the computer
 

211
00:07:37,039 --> 00:07:38,950
had little problems with the computer
commands and you've had sort of stop and

212
00:07:38,950 --> 00:07:38,960
commands and you've had sort of stop and
 

213
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,029
commands and you've had sort of stop and
go with the arm has that at all been

214
00:07:41,029 --> 00:07:41,039
go with the arm has that at all been
 

215
00:07:41,039 --> 00:07:43,189
go with the arm has that at all been
frustrating or annoying

216
00:07:43,189 --> 00:07:43,199
frustrating or annoying
 

217
00:07:43,199 --> 00:07:44,870
frustrating or annoying
or is it something you just really don't

218
00:07:44,870 --> 00:07:44,880
or is it something you just really don't
 

219
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:46,150
or is it something you just really don't
even

220
00:07:46,150 --> 00:07:46,160
even
 

221
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:50,070
even
notice that much

222
00:07:50,070 --> 00:07:50,080

 

223
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,390

well we certainly notice it when

224
00:07:52,390 --> 00:07:52,400
well we certainly notice it when
 

225
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,350
well we certainly notice it when
something happens like that but

226
00:07:55,350 --> 00:07:55,360
something happens like that but
 

227
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,189
something happens like that but
as i said this is sort of a test flight

228
00:07:57,189 --> 00:07:57,199
as i said this is sort of a test flight
 

229
00:07:57,199 --> 00:07:58,950
as i said this is sort of a test flight
of this hardware and it's performed very

230
00:07:58,950 --> 00:07:58,960
of this hardware and it's performed very
 

231
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,990
of this hardware and it's performed very
well and in the compliance mode the

232
00:08:01,990 --> 00:08:02,000
well and in the compliance mode the
 

233
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:03,909
well and in the compliance mode the
flexible compliance mode is something we

234
00:08:03,909 --> 00:08:03,919
flexible compliance mode is something we
 

235
00:08:03,919 --> 00:08:05,189
flexible compliance mode is something we
can't test

236
00:08:05,189 --> 00:08:05,199
can't test
 

237
00:08:05,199 --> 00:08:06,710
can't test
uh in one g

238
00:08:06,710 --> 00:08:06,720
uh in one g
 

239
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,950
uh in one g
in the gravity of earth

240
00:08:08,950 --> 00:08:08,960
in the gravity of earth
 

241
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,270
in the gravity of earth
and so that has really been where we've

242
00:08:11,270 --> 00:08:11,280
and so that has really been where we've
 

243
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,150
and so that has really been where we've
had the surprises so we we really uh

244
00:08:14,150 --> 00:08:14,160
had the surprises so we we really uh
 

245
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:15,909
had the surprises so we we really uh
didn't know what to expect there and the

246
00:08:15,909 --> 00:08:15,919
didn't know what to expect there and the
 

247
00:08:15,919 --> 00:08:18,950
didn't know what to expect there and the
fact that we we had to uh play with arm

248
00:08:18,950 --> 00:08:18,960
fact that we we had to uh play with arm
 

249
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:20,390
fact that we we had to uh play with arm
a little bit more to get it to do what

250
00:08:20,390 --> 00:08:20,400
a little bit more to get it to do what
 

251
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,869
a little bit more to get it to do what
we wanted to do really uh was not a

252
00:08:22,869 --> 00:08:22,879
we wanted to do really uh was not a
 

253
00:08:22,879 --> 00:08:24,950
we wanted to do really uh was not a
worry to us it's something that

254
00:08:24,950 --> 00:08:24,960
worry to us it's something that
 

255
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,029
worry to us it's something that
was kind of interesting to see how the

256
00:08:27,029 --> 00:08:27,039
was kind of interesting to see how the
 

257
00:08:27,039 --> 00:08:29,110
was kind of interesting to see how the
different compliance modes worked

258
00:08:29,110 --> 00:08:29,120
different compliance modes worked
 

259
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,350
different compliance modes worked
as far as the ground commanding

260
00:08:31,350 --> 00:08:31,360
as far as the ground commanding
 

261
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,909
as far as the ground commanding
that went very well most of the day we

262
00:08:33,909 --> 00:08:33,919
that went very well most of the day we
 

263
00:08:33,919 --> 00:08:36,149
that went very well most of the day we
only missed one ride at the end

264
00:08:36,149 --> 00:08:36,159
only missed one ride at the end
 

265
00:08:36,159 --> 00:08:38,790
only missed one ride at the end
when we lost the computer lock so we

266
00:08:38,790 --> 00:08:38,800
when we lost the computer lock so we
 

267
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:40,630
when we lost the computer lock so we
proved that the ground commanding works

268
00:08:40,630 --> 00:08:40,640
proved that the ground commanding works
 

269
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,430
proved that the ground commanding works
and i think that was really

270
00:08:43,430 --> 00:08:43,440
and i think that was really
 

271
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:44,230
and i think that was really
uh

272
00:08:44,230 --> 00:08:44,240
uh
 

273
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,550
uh
a real triumph to command the arm from

274
00:08:46,550 --> 00:08:46,560
a real triumph to command the arm from
 

275
00:08:46,560 --> 00:08:48,550
a real triumph to command the arm from
the ground and uh that really proves

276
00:08:48,550 --> 00:08:48,560
the ground and uh that really proves
 

277
00:08:48,560 --> 00:08:49,829
the ground and uh that really proves
that we'll be ready for that for

278
00:08:49,829 --> 00:08:49,839
that we'll be ready for that for
 

279
00:08:49,839 --> 00:08:51,590
that we'll be ready for that for
international space station so the few

280
00:08:51,590 --> 00:08:51,600
international space station so the few
 

281
00:08:51,600 --> 00:09:06,389
international space station so the few
little glitches we've had i

282
00:09:06,389 --> 00:09:06,399

 

283
00:09:06,399 --> 00:09:08,710

and one for kurt brown there

284
00:09:08,710 --> 00:09:08,720
and one for kurt brown there
 

285
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,949
and one for kurt brown there
uh there's a long streak now going this

286
00:09:10,949 --> 00:09:10,959
uh there's a long streak now going this
 

287
00:09:10,959 --> 00:09:13,590
uh there's a long streak now going this
year and into much of last year for

288
00:09:13,590 --> 00:09:13,600
year and into much of last year for
 

289
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,389
year and into much of last year for
first day landings uh first attempt

290
00:09:16,389 --> 00:09:16,399
first day landings uh first attempt
 

291
00:09:16,399 --> 00:09:18,870
first day landings uh first attempt
first day attempt landings at ksc with

292
00:09:18,870 --> 00:09:18,880
first day attempt landings at ksc with
 

293
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:20,790
first day attempt landings at ksc with
very few uh

294
00:09:20,790 --> 00:09:20,800
very few uh
 

295
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:22,630
very few uh
diversions to california do you feel

296
00:09:22,630 --> 00:09:22,640
diversions to california do you feel
 

297
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,389
diversions to california do you feel
under pressure that uh you're gonna have

298
00:09:24,389 --> 00:09:24,399
under pressure that uh you're gonna have
 

299
00:09:24,399 --> 00:09:25,750
under pressure that uh you're gonna have
to land

300
00:09:25,750 --> 00:09:25,760
to land
 

301
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,829
to land
here at ksc on the first day and and why

302
00:09:27,829 --> 00:09:27,839
here at ksc on the first day and and why
 

303
00:09:27,839 --> 00:09:29,990
here at ksc on the first day and and why
do you think it is that uh

304
00:09:29,990 --> 00:09:30,000
do you think it is that uh
 

305
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,990
do you think it is that uh
shuttles keep um aren't

306
00:09:31,990 --> 00:09:32,000
shuttles keep um aren't
 

307
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,670
shuttles keep um aren't
being waived off for weather much and

308
00:09:33,670 --> 00:09:33,680
being waived off for weather much and
 

309
00:09:33,680 --> 00:09:38,870
being waived off for weather much and
landing on the first first try now

310
00:09:38,870 --> 00:09:38,880

 

311
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,030

well probably the the pressure's not on

312
00:09:41,030 --> 00:09:41,040
well probably the the pressure's not on
 

313
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:42,790
well probably the the pressure's not on
me it may be on mission control they do

314
00:09:42,790 --> 00:09:42,800
me it may be on mission control they do
 

315
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,350
me it may be on mission control they do
all the real weather investigation prior

316
00:09:45,350 --> 00:09:45,360
all the real weather investigation prior
 

317
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,990
all the real weather investigation prior
to giving us a go for the orbit burn but

318
00:09:47,990 --> 00:09:48,000
to giving us a go for the orbit burn but
 

319
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:49,590
to giving us a go for the orbit burn but
we obviously trust their judgment quite

320
00:09:49,590 --> 00:09:49,600
we obviously trust their judgment quite
 

321
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:51,590
we obviously trust their judgment quite
well and uh and we'll be ready to go

322
00:09:51,590 --> 00:09:51,600
well and uh and we'll be ready to go
 

323
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,070
well and uh and we'll be ready to go
wherever they send us um i don't want to

324
00:09:54,070 --> 00:09:54,080
wherever they send us um i don't want to
 

325
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:55,750
wherever they send us um i don't want to
say we're just lucky but uh obviously

326
00:09:55,750 --> 00:09:55,760
say we're just lucky but uh obviously
 

327
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,269
say we're just lucky but uh obviously
every subtle landing that we do we

328
00:09:57,269 --> 00:09:57,279
every subtle landing that we do we
 

329
00:09:57,279 --> 00:09:58,949
every subtle landing that we do we
always look at the weather very

330
00:09:58,949 --> 00:09:58,959
always look at the weather very
 

331
00:09:58,959 --> 00:10:01,030
always look at the weather very
very strongly so that we understand what

332
00:10:01,030 --> 00:10:01,040
very strongly so that we understand what
 

333
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,350
very strongly so that we understand what
it will do within the next hour so after

334
00:10:03,350 --> 00:10:03,360
it will do within the next hour so after
 

335
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,509
it will do within the next hour so after

you have to give a lot of credit to our
 

339
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,430
you have to give a lot of credit to our
space meteorology group they do a great

340
00:10:09,430 --> 00:10:09,440
space meteorology group they do a great
 

341
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:10,630
space meteorology group they do a great
job at looking at the weather

342
00:10:10,630 --> 00:10:10,640
job at looking at the weather
 

343
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:12,389
job at looking at the weather
forecasting it and

344
00:10:12,389 --> 00:10:12,399
forecasting it and
 

345
00:10:12,399 --> 00:10:14,310
forecasting it and
i think they're they're just that good

346
00:10:14,310 --> 00:10:14,320
i think they're they're just that good
 

347
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:15,829
i think they're they're just that good
if they give us a go for the orbit we

348
00:10:15,829 --> 00:10:15,839
if they give us a go for the orbit we
 

349
00:10:15,839 --> 00:10:19,269
if they give us a go for the orbit we
can we can come on in there

350
00:10:19,269 --> 00:10:19,279
can we can come on in there

00:10:46,630 --> 00:10:46,640
united mirror's been up there for about
 

373
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,389
united mirror's been up there for about
a year and we've learned a fair bit from

374
00:10:48,389 --> 00:10:48,399
a year and we've learned a fair bit from
 

375
00:10:48,399 --> 00:10:50,550
a year and we've learned a fair bit from
that and i'm basically those results we

that and i'm basically those results we
 

377
00:10:50,560 --> 00:10:52,230
that and i'm basically those results we
actually suggested the design of this

actually suggested the design of this
 

379
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,310

00:10:54,310 --> 00:10:54,320
one a little bit to improve on that
 

381
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:55,829
one a little bit to improve on that
and in the data that i've sent to the

00:10:55,829 --> 00:10:55,839
and in the data that i've sent to the
 

383
00:10:55,839 --> 00:10:58,230

the ground report back up that we've got
 

387
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:01,590
the ground report back up that we've got
about a four to five improvement in the

about a four to five improvement in the
 

389
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:03,509
about a four to five improvement in the
performance of this system

390
00:11:03,509 --> 00:11:03,519
performance of this system
 

391
00:11:03,519 --> 00:11:04,790
performance of this system
and that's largely because of the small

392
00:11:04,790 --> 00:11:04,800
and that's largely because of the small
 

393
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,310
and that's largely because of the small
changes we've made in the design of this

this has been for me recently a while
we've been surprised by a couple of

we've been surprised by a couple of
 

401
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,069
we've been surprised by a couple of
things that we're dealing with and we

402
00:11:12,069 --> 00:11:12,079
things that we're dealing with and we
 

403
00:11:12,079 --> 00:11:14,310
things that we're dealing with and we
had one maintenance issue that we've uh

404
00:11:14,310 --> 00:11:14,320
had one maintenance issue that we've uh
 

405
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:15,910
had one maintenance issue that we've uh
solved i think now and we're in

406
00:11:15,910 --> 00:11:15,920
solved i think now and we're in
 

407
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:17,670
solved i think now and we're in
operation here again

408
00:11:17,670 --> 00:11:17,680
operation here again
 

409
00:11:17,680 --> 00:11:19,110
operation here again
but they use the performance quite well

410
00:11:19,110 --> 00:11:19,120
but they use the performance quite well
 

411
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:20,870
but they use the performance quite well
i think they certainly improve the

412
00:11:20,870 --> 00:11:20,880
i think they certainly improve the
 

413
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,509
i think they certainly improve the

but uh they're water vapor is it going

426
00:11:36,230 --> 00:11:36,240
but uh they're water vapor is it going

to be possible to see if you guys are
 

429
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,949
to be possible to see if you guys are

00:11:50,790 --> 00:11:50,800
well that's a good question and uh this
 

437
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,670
well that's a good question and uh this
is a brand new theory about uh icy

very
interesting bits of data that's come in

interesting bits of data that's come in
 

481
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,910
interesting bits of data that's come in
and this is very fresh data so it hasn't

482
00:12:39,910 --> 00:12:39,920
and this is very fresh data so it hasn't
 

483
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:41,430
and this is very fresh data so it hasn't
really been analyzed to its fullest

484
00:12:41,430 --> 00:12:41,440
really been analyzed to its fullest
 

485
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,910
really been analyzed to its fullest
extent is that there is a large amount

486
00:12:43,910 --> 00:12:43,920
extent is that there is a large amount
 

487
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,470
extent is that there is a large amount
of hydroxyl which is a component

atmos in the atmosphere and also
 

493
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:51,829
atmos in the atmosphere and also
is

494
00:12:51,829 --> 00:12:51,839
is
 

495
00:12:51,839 --> 00:12:53,670
is
one of the major

496
00:12:53,670 --> 00:12:53,680
one of the major
 

497
00:12:53,680 --> 00:12:55,509
one of the major
players in the destruction of ozone in

498
00:12:55,509 --> 00:12:55,519
players in the destruction of ozone in
 

499
00:12:55,519 --> 00:12:57,030
players in the destruction of ozone in
the atmosphere so it's important to know

500
00:12:57,030 --> 00:12:57,040
the atmosphere so it's important to know
 

501
00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,069
the atmosphere so it's important to know
about hydroxyl and there's a lot of it

502
00:13:00,069 --> 00:13:00,079
about hydroxyl and there's a lot of it
 

503
00:13:00,079 --> 00:13:01,509
about hydroxyl and there's a lot of it
in the middle atmosphere between about

504
00:13:01,509 --> 00:13:01,519
in the middle atmosphere between about
 

505
00:13:01,519 --> 00:13:03,829
in the middle atmosphere between about
40 and 60 miles we need to learn more

506
00:13:03,829 --> 00:13:03,839
40 and 60 miles we need to learn more
 

507
00:13:03,839 --> 00:13:06,470
40 and 60 miles we need to learn more
about that and i think the crystal spas

508
00:13:06,470 --> 00:13:06,480
about that and i think the crystal spas
 

509
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:07,990
about that and i think the crystal spas
and marcy instruments out there right

510
00:13:07,990 --> 00:13:08,000
and marcy instruments out there right
 

511
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:09,269
and marcy instruments out there right
now are going to tell us a lot more

512
00:13:09,269 --> 00:13:09,279
now are going to tell us a lot more
 

513
00:13:09,279 --> 00:13:10,069
now are going to tell us a lot more
about

514
00:13:10,069 --> 00:13:10,079
about
 

515
00:13:10,079 --> 00:13:11,590
about
how much water is there and give us a

516
00:13:11,590 --> 00:13:11,600
how much water is there and give us a
 

517
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,350
how much water is there and give us a
lot to think about where about where it

518
00:13:13,350 --> 00:13:13,360
lot to think about where about where it
 

519
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:14,949
lot to think about where about where it
may have come from

520
00:13:14,949 --> 00:13:14,959
may have come from
 

521
00:13:14,959 --> 00:13:17,030
may have come from
and commander can you tell me what's the

522
00:13:17,030 --> 00:13:17,040
and commander can you tell me what's the
 

523
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,190
and commander can you tell me what's the
proudest accomplishment of this fight as

524
00:13:19,190 --> 00:13:19,200
proudest accomplishment of this fight as
 

525
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:24,310
proudest accomplishment of this fight as
you see it for you and your crew

526
00:13:24,310 --> 00:13:24,320

 

527
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:25,910

well i'd probably have to say the

528
00:13:25,910 --> 00:13:25,920
well i'd probably have to say the
 

529
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:27,670
well i'd probably have to say the
spectrum of the activities we have on

530
00:13:27,670 --> 00:13:27,680
spectrum of the activities we have on
 

531
00:13:27,680 --> 00:13:29,269
spectrum of the activities we have on
board and the number of activities we

532
00:13:29,269 --> 00:13:29,279
board and the number of activities we
 

533
00:13:29,279 --> 00:13:31,110
board and the number of activities we
have on board as i mentioned in the

534
00:13:31,110 --> 00:13:31,120
have on board as i mentioned in the
 

535
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:32,710
have on board as i mentioned in the
opening we've completed eight days of

536
00:13:32,710 --> 00:13:32,720
opening we've completed eight days of
 

537
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,350
opening we've completed eight days of
very intense payload operations and all

538
00:13:35,350 --> 00:13:35,360
very intense payload operations and all
 

539
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:36,949
very intense payload operations and all
those have gone very smoothly we've had

540
00:13:36,949 --> 00:13:36,959
those have gone very smoothly we've had
 

541
00:13:36,959 --> 00:13:38,230
those have gone very smoothly we've had
a few things to slow us down we've

542
00:13:38,230 --> 00:13:38,240
a few things to slow us down we've
 

543
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:39,590
a few things to slow us down we've
gotten behind in the timeline a little

544
00:13:39,590 --> 00:13:39,600
gotten behind in the timeline a little
 

545
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,150
gotten behind in the timeline a little
bit but due to the extraordinary efforts

546
00:13:42,150 --> 00:13:42,160
bit but due to the extraordinary efforts
 

547
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,230
bit but due to the extraordinary efforts
of the folks on the ground we're able to

548
00:13:44,230 --> 00:13:44,240
of the folks on the ground we're able to
 

549
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:45,910
of the folks on the ground we're able to
blend those back in into next day's

550
00:13:45,910 --> 00:13:45,920
blend those back in into next day's
 

551
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,150
blend those back in into next day's
activities so we uh we're right where we

552
00:13:48,150 --> 00:13:48,160
activities so we uh we're right where we
 

553
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,629
activities so we uh we're right where we
should be so i i'd have to be very very

554
00:13:50,629 --> 00:13:50,639
should be so i i'd have to be very very
 

555
00:13:50,639 --> 00:13:52,870
should be so i i'd have to be very very
proud of my crew doing all that with

556
00:13:52,870 --> 00:13:52,880
proud of my crew doing all that with
 

557
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:54,230
proud of my crew doing all that with
three rookies on board they have to

558
00:13:54,230 --> 00:13:54,240
three rookies on board they have to
 

559
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:55,750
three rookies on board they have to
adapt the space flight first and then

560
00:13:55,750 --> 00:13:55,760
adapt the space flight first and then
 

561
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,110
adapt the space flight first and then
work the uh

562
00:13:57,110 --> 00:13:57,120
work the uh
 

563
00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,430
work the uh
the payload operations and they've done

564
00:13:59,430 --> 00:13:59,440
the payload operations and they've done
 

565
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,509
the payload operations and they've done
an excellent job of that and

566
00:14:01,509 --> 00:14:01,519
an excellent job of that and
 

567
00:14:01,519 --> 00:14:02,870
an excellent job of that and
with all the activities we have it's

568
00:14:02,870 --> 00:14:02,880
with all the activities we have it's
 

569
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:04,310
with all the activities we have it's
going to be a one of the shuttle

570
00:14:04,310 --> 00:14:04,320
going to be a one of the shuttle
 

571
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:05,750
going to be a one of the shuttle
missions that we can look back and be

572
00:14:05,750 --> 00:14:05,760
missions that we can look back and be
 

573
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,389
missions that we can look back and be
very very proud of

574
00:14:08,389 --> 00:14:08,399
very very proud of
 

575
00:14:08,399 --> 00:14:10,949
very very proud of
and i guess one for uh kent rominger

576
00:14:10,949 --> 00:14:10,959
and i guess one for uh kent rominger
 

577
00:14:10,959 --> 00:14:12,949
and i guess one for uh kent rominger
since he's kind of lonely there

578
00:14:12,949 --> 00:14:12,959
since he's kind of lonely there

take us
 

589
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:20,870
take us
through a few steps of what's going to

590
00:14:20,870 --> 00:14:20,880
through a few steps of what's going to
 

591

robert kerbeam have done the primary
amount of training for the rendezvous

606
00:14:36,790 --> 00:14:36,800
amount of training for the rendezvous
 

607
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:39,350
amount of training for the rendezvous
but the rendezvous will start actually

608
00:14:39,350 --> 00:14:39,360
but the rendezvous will start actually
 

609
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:40,470
but the rendezvous will start actually
before we get in the rendezvous

610
00:14:40,470 --> 00:14:40,480
before we get in the rendezvous
 

611
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:42,870
before we get in the rendezvous

that
some of our burns will be begin phasing

620
00:14:49,590 --> 00:14:49,600
some of our burns will be begin phasing
 

621
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,150
some of our burns will be begin phasing
us to close back in on crystal spas

622
00:14:52,150 --> 00:14:52,160
us to close back in on crystal spas
 

623
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,389
us to close back in on crystal spas
and christus boss is approximately 35

00:14:56,870 --> 00:14:56,880
behind us right now we're out in front
 

629
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,990
behind us right now we're out in front
of it and we do some phasing burns to

630
00:14:59,990 --> 00:15:00,000
of it and we do some phasing burns to
 

631
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:00,870
of it and we do some phasing burns to
raise

632
00:15:00,870 --> 00:15:00,880
raise
 

633
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,030
raise
our orbit to slow us down relative to

634
00:15:03,030 --> 00:15:03,040
our orbit to slow us down relative to
 

635
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,269
our orbit to slow us down relative to
christa and let us close on it we

636
00:15:05,269 --> 00:15:05,279
christa and let us close on it we
 

637
00:15:05,279 --> 00:15:07,910
christa and let us close on it we
actually hop over the top of krista

638
00:15:07,910 --> 00:15:07,920
actually hop over the top of krista
 

639
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:09,030
actually hop over the top of krista
and do a

640
00:15:09,030 --> 00:15:09,040
and do a
 

641
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,189
and do a
full circle loop all the way back around

642
00:15:11,189 --> 00:15:11,199
full circle loop all the way back around
 

643
00:15:11,199 --> 00:15:13,430
full circle loop all the way back around
it and we stop and come up from below

644
00:15:13,430 --> 00:15:13,440
it and we stop and come up from below
 

645
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,829
it and we stop and come up from below
for a while and then continue that first

646
00:15:15,829 --> 00:15:15,839
for a while and then continue that first
 

647
00:15:15,839 --> 00:15:17,269
for a while and then continue that first
full circle loop

648
00:15:17,269 --> 00:15:17,279
full circle loop
 

649
00:15:17,279 --> 00:15:19,350
full circle loop
back around to being out in front of

650
00:15:19,350 --> 00:15:19,360
back around to being out in front of
 

651
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,350
back around to being out in front of
again where we started except this time

652
00:15:21,350 --> 00:15:21,360
again where we started except this time
 

653
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,509
again where we started except this time
we're only 300 feet out in front of it

654
00:15:23,509 --> 00:15:23,519
we're only 300 feet out in front of it
 

655
00:15:23,519 --> 00:15:25,590
we're only 300 feet out in front of it
instead of 30 miles and then we close on

656
00:15:25,590 --> 00:15:25,600
instead of 30 miles and then we close on
 

657
00:15:25,600 --> 00:16:14,870
instead of 30 miles and then we close on
into that final grapple

658
00:16:14,870 --> 00:16:14,880

 

659
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:16,959

you
