I hope that music helped 7 00:02:29,390 --> 00:02:25,890 everybody wake up this morning because 8 00:02:32,420 --> 00:02:29,400 we have good news for you you are go for 9 00:02:32,900 --> 00:02:32,430 an e ba and today is going to be a bit 10 00:02:34,940 --> 00:02:32,910 busy 11 00:02:36,949 --> 00:02:34,950 in preparation for clearing the plate 12 00:02:39,620 --> 00:02:36,959 for tomorrow and in the morning you'll 13 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:39,630 have vgs UPS and in the afternoon 14 00:02:45,350 --> 00:02:41,970 winston into cow will have a chance to 15 00:02:47,390 --> 00:02:45,360 finish the e DFT and also a chance for 16 00:02:52,670 --> 00:02:47,400 air cam so it's going to be a good 17 00:02:56,530 --> 00:02:52,680 couple of days that's a great way to 18 00:03:05,030 --> 00:02:58,340 would you like to make some opening 19 00:03:10,250 --> 00:03:07,610 I'm Kevin cradle the commander and this 20 00:03:13,370 --> 00:03:10,260 is my crew of SES 87 that I'm proud to a 21 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:13,380 friend before you we're on the United 22 00:03:18,410 --> 00:03:16,170 States microgravity payload for it's 23 00:03:20,319 --> 00:03:18,420 been a highly successful for the United 24 00:03:23,750 --> 00:03:20,329 States by gravity for payload 25 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:23,760 experiments are really working well of 26 00:03:28,099 --> 00:03:26,130 course we did have a glitch at the 27 00:03:30,379 --> 00:03:28,109 beginning of the mission where we had a 28 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:30,389 problem with the sports satellite we're 29 00:03:35,479 --> 00:03:32,130 not really sure the whole facts of that 30 00:03:38,270 --> 00:03:35,489 but luckily due to the hard work of the 31 00:03:40,580 --> 00:03:38,280 folks on the ground and the crew here we 32 00:03:42,770 --> 00:03:40,590 put together a plan and I think put 33 00:03:45,319 --> 00:03:42,780 together a pretty spectacular grab and 34 00:03:47,300 --> 00:03:45,329 retrieval of the sportin and then 35 00:03:50,210 --> 00:03:47,310 tomorrow we're going to go out and do 36 00:03:51,620 --> 00:03:50,220 another spacewalk where we're going to 37 00:03:52,879 --> 00:03:51,630 evaluate some more of the tools that 38 00:03:54,379 --> 00:03:52,889 they did at the end of the first-base 39 00:03:56,870 --> 00:03:54,389 walk that we're going to be used from 40 00:03:58,800 --> 00:03:56,880 the International Space Station we also 41 00:04:01,590 --> 00:03:58,810 have onboard the Ukraine 42 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:01,600 collaborative Ukrainian experiment that 43 00:04:06,990 --> 00:04:03,850 Colonel Leonid can NEX been working on 44 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:07,000 and it's been going quite well so we've 45 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:11,290 had a very long and somewhat eventful 13 46 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:12,610 days and we're looking forward to your 47 00:04:16,289 --> 00:04:13,650 questions 48 00:04:20,250 --> 00:04:16,299 this is sue Butler for The Associated 49 00:04:23,190 --> 00:04:20,260 Press for captain scott how important do 50 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:23,200 you consider the second Evie a and the 51 00:04:28,890 --> 00:04:25,930 testing of this crane how crucial do you 52 00:04:31,500 --> 00:04:28,900 think it is is test for the future of 53 00:04:34,110 --> 00:04:31,510 the space station are you just a little 54 00:04:37,620 --> 00:04:34,120 bit worried that the crane won't work as 55 00:04:40,470 --> 00:04:37,630 advertised do you think it snake it 56 00:04:45,150 --> 00:04:40,480 since it couldn't be tested legal 57 00:04:47,070 --> 00:04:45,160 because of this attached as a matter of 58 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:47,080 fact we had a very successful test of 59 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:49,450 the crane during the first EBA what we 60 00:04:52,980 --> 00:04:51,130 did not do was to get a chance to 61 00:04:54,690 --> 00:04:52,990 exercise all of the options what we're 62 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:54,700 going to do this time is just expand the 63 00:04:58,050 --> 00:04:55,930 UH knowledge base that we gained the 64 00:05:01,110 --> 00:04:58,060 first time the clinic actually operates 65 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:01,120 very very smoothly it's meeting both of 66 00:05:04,620 --> 00:05:03,010 our expectations I say most because 67 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:04,630 there's a little bit of flexibility in 68 00:05:11,130 --> 00:05:05,970 the boom that we did quite anticipate 69 00:05:13,710 --> 00:05:11,140 but certain things ought to be to be 70 00:05:15,390 --> 00:05:13,720 expected us nothing's gonna be 100% what 71 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:15,400 we're gonna do tomorrow very briefly is 72 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:18,130 to operate the crane using a small or 73 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:20,890 you are small carrier and just expand on 74 00:05:24,270 --> 00:05:22,690 the information we got the other day but 75 00:05:28,170 --> 00:05:24,280 actually we think the clang is working 76 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:28,180 quite well do you have confidence that 77 00:05:34,140 --> 00:05:31,450 Americans can successfully complete more 78 00:05:36,390 --> 00:05:34,150 than eleven hundred and fifty EVs in the 79 00:05:49,860 --> 00:05:36,400 first year based on what you've seen so 80 00:05:51,870 --> 00:05:49,870 far I'm not sure I I think if you talk 81 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:51,880 about because such assembly of a space 82 00:05:55,350 --> 00:05:53,530 station in the number of EBA is that 83 00:05:56,730 --> 00:05:55,360 we're gonna have to do oh yes there's no 84 00:05:58,620 --> 00:05:56,740 doubt in my mind we're gonna be able to 85 00:06:00,210 --> 00:05:58,630 handle that workload we are gearing up 86 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:00,220 in terms of the number of ETA 87 00:06:05,550 --> 00:06:01,210 experienced people 88 00:06:07,710 --> 00:06:05,560 well the equipment the ISS tools and 89 00:06:09,450 --> 00:06:07,720 procedures are coming along very rapidly 90 00:06:11,939 --> 00:06:09,460 and I think we're ready to go build a 91 00:06:15,909 --> 00:06:11,949 space station start with 88 next year 92 00:06:19,270 --> 00:06:15,919 and one follow-up for kalpana chawla 93 00:06:22,300 --> 00:06:19,280 please would you please explain since we 94 00:06:24,969 --> 00:06:22,310 haven't heard any your own words what 95 00:06:28,510 --> 00:06:24,979 happened what this glitch was that Kevin 96 00:06:30,850 --> 00:06:28,520 Prager referred to when you deploy this 97 00:06:33,580 --> 00:06:30,860 patent and it failed to period then you 98 00:06:37,659 --> 00:06:33,590 try to grab it was it a signal nuisance 99 00:07:02,770 --> 00:06:37,669 patent that did not receive for some 100 00:07:04,540 --> 00:07:02,780 reason or was a signal not sent bill 101 00:07:06,250 --> 00:07:04,550 Harwood with CBS News well let me just 102 00:07:09,339 --> 00:07:06,260 follow that up just very briefly for dr. 103 00:07:10,659 --> 00:07:09,349 Chawla to the best of your memory and I 104 00:07:11,950 --> 00:07:10,669 realized that there's still 105 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:11,960 troubleshooting and you guys will be 106 00:07:15,790 --> 00:07:13,490 talking about this on the ground to 107 00:07:18,850 --> 00:07:15,800 figure out exactly what happened but to 108 00:07:21,370 --> 00:07:18,860 the best of your memory did you send all 109 00:07:33,339 --> 00:07:21,380 of the required commands pre deploy to 110 00:07:35,529 --> 00:07:33,349 the satellite yes or no okay question 111 00:07:39,580 --> 00:07:35,539 from Steve Lindsey I guess looking ahead 112 00:07:41,860 --> 00:07:39,590 to air cam sprint I'm not sure how much 113 00:07:43,810 --> 00:07:41,870 time that will be remaining in the a VA 114 00:07:45,189 --> 00:07:43,820 for the AirCam sprint test I know that 115 00:07:46,990 --> 00:07:45,199 originally y'all were hoping for 30 116 00:07:49,060 --> 00:07:47,000 minutes isn't it pretty much what you're 117 00:07:50,439 --> 00:07:49,070 expecting now and I'm I'm just wondering 118 00:07:52,330 --> 00:07:50,449 if everything goes well trying to get a 119 00:07:54,159 --> 00:07:52,340 feel for how high above the bay the 120 00:08:06,300 --> 00:07:54,169 camera might ultimately get I mean do 121 00:08:10,450 --> 00:08:08,860 today we're going to go with it it'll 122 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:10,460 kind of depend on how much time we have 123 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:13,370 the flight envelope Dadar 60 feet 124 00:08:17,860 --> 00:08:15,050 whether we take it that high or not will 125 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:17,870 depend that's just kind of secondary 126 00:08:23,630 --> 00:08:20,090 objective our primary objectives to test 127 00:08:37,580 --> 00:08:23,640 these flying qualities of this 128 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:41,159 observing and evaluating work and trying 129 00:08:48,300 --> 00:08:46,810 to use the camera views their work this 130 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:48,310 is the function of Earth News for KC a 131 00:08:52,890 --> 00:08:50,410 rather esoteric question when you were 132 00:08:54,300 --> 00:08:52,900 growing up in India did you get to the 133 00:08:57,030 --> 00:08:54,310 gervilen have one of the chicken wire 134 00:08:59,790 --> 00:08:57,040 antennas to view the 80s six satellite 135 00:09:02,220 --> 00:08:59,800 which NASA had launched a way back then 136 00:09:32,850 --> 00:09:02,230 and did that help influence you in your 137 00:09:34,350 --> 00:09:32,860 career as an astronaut and I understand 138 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:34,360 from your family that they're fourth 139 00:09:38,700 --> 00:09:36,610 generation vegetarians so I'm wondering 140 00:09:39,900 --> 00:09:38,710 how your Thanksgiving dinner was what 141 00:09:42,990 --> 00:09:39,910 did you do with your turkey dinner and 142 00:09:58,890 --> 00:09:43,000 how good was the beans and rice dinner 143 00:10:01,950 --> 00:09:58,900 that you had and when you were pulling 144 00:10:03,930 --> 00:10:01,960 back with the RMS after the Spartan 145 00:10:05,910 --> 00:10:03,940 attempt to grab it after the pirouette 146 00:10:09,390 --> 00:10:05,920 didn't work when did you first realize 147 00:10:11,340 --> 00:10:09,400 that it went into a tumble what was your 148 00:10:13,620 --> 00:10:11,350 reaction then did you think that you 149 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:13,630 might have had something to do with tip 150 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:16,330 or freighter or did you suspect that it 151 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:18,010 was the RMS that was malfunctioning and 152 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:43,550 we have from the Time magazine question 153 00:10:48,190 --> 00:10:45,810 is for the mission commander and it 154 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:48,200 comes from my editors in New York or 155 00:10:55,150 --> 00:10:50,250 want to send along their congratulations 156 00:10:58,820 --> 00:10:55,160 on a spectacular mission but in that 157 00:11:02,150 --> 00:10:58,830 crew of yours all high achievers all of 158 00:11:04,070 --> 00:11:02,160 them highly qualified most of them 159 00:11:08,090 --> 00:11:04,080 pilots and even a windsurfer among you 160 00:11:12,380 --> 00:11:08,100 question is is there a poet among you 161 00:11:14,210 --> 00:11:12,390 and is anyone one of you going to write 162 00:11:16,610 --> 00:11:14,220 a bit of poetry about this mission or 163 00:11:27,350 --> 00:11:16,620 how it feels to flown around out there 164 00:11:30,050 --> 00:11:27,360 please enjoy poetry fact Casey has to 165 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:30,060 try to get us all together and write our 166 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:32,610 own poetry but not to a whole lot of 167 00:11:37,790 --> 00:11:34,170 success 168 00:11:40,940 --> 00:11:37,800 cacao is doing some drawing for his home 169 00:11:41,690 --> 00:11:40,950 country of Japan so we have certain 170 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:41,700 talents 171 00:11:48,710 --> 00:11:46,130 unfortunately poetry is not one of them 172 00:11:51,860 --> 00:11:48,720 this is su battle a game for the 173 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:51,870 Associated Press I don't want to appear 174 00:11:59,780 --> 00:11:55,530 to be picking on doctor traveler but are 175 00:12:45,110 --> 00:11:59,790 you fairly on blaming yourself for the 176 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:47,120 bill Harwood again for a Winston Scott 177 00:12:52,340 --> 00:12:49,770 again for AirCam would you walk us 178 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:52,350 through briefly how that process works 179 00:12:55,010 --> 00:12:53,490 you're obviously going to be standing 180 00:12:57,530 --> 00:12:55,020 there on the foot restraint I guess and 181 00:12:59,000 --> 00:12:57,540 simply release it into space but would 182 00:13:00,650 --> 00:12:59,010 you just describe the test procedure 183 00:13:04,070 --> 00:13:00,660 that happens and then recapturing it and 184 00:13:06,110 --> 00:13:04,080 taking it back inside well yes at least 185 00:13:07,730 --> 00:13:06,120 I'll describe my part of it quite a bit 186 00:13:10,370 --> 00:13:07,740 of a test procedure will be done by 187 00:13:12,170 --> 00:13:10,380 Steve from inside the cabin but what I'm 188 00:13:15,980 --> 00:13:12,180 going to do is retrieve the spread from 189 00:13:17,900 --> 00:13:15,990 the airlock I'll make my way up to the 190 00:13:19,670 --> 00:13:17,910 other foot restraint myself in the foot 191 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:19,680 restraint once I've done that I'll 192 00:13:24,050 --> 00:13:21,930 simply power it on I'll look for a light 193 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:24,060 sequence the sequence of five flashing 194 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:25,650 lights that tell me the power of went 195 00:13:29,510 --> 00:13:27,050 real well everything is working properly 196 00:13:31,940 --> 00:13:29,520 then when Steve gives me the go I'll 197 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:31,950 rotate it it has to be rotated about one 198 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:34,050 or more axes to perform another self 199 00:13:37,460 --> 00:13:35,850 test when we get the indication that 200 00:13:39,950 --> 00:13:37,470 that self test is complete two three 201 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:39,960 flashing lights I'll just stand by see 202 00:13:45,140 --> 00:13:42,450 we'll go through a series of tests and
