1
00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:15,490
good morning Columbia we of course we're

2
00:01:19,150 --> 00:01:16,970
playing the flight of the bumblebee and

3
00:01:22,270 --> 00:01:19,160
we thought it would be appropriate with

4
00:01:26,380 --> 00:01:22,280
all the pollination that Leonid has been

5
00:01:28,420 --> 00:01:26,390
doing over the past 14 days and of

6
00:01:31,060 --> 00:01:28,430
course yesterday when we saw the sprint

7
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:31,070
free flyer in the payload Bay it

8
00:01:36,610 --> 00:01:33,650
reminded us of a bumblebee buzzing

9
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:36,620
around above it so we thought that was a

10
00:01:41,710 --> 00:01:40,610
good selection good morning a good

11
00:01:43,780 --> 00:01:41,720

think of you I think what a long journey

you have covered from Colonel to space

28
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:54,170
long distance and therefore when I talk

29
00:02:59,910 --> 00:02:56,890
to you I feel I'm talking to a person

30
00:03:06,850 --> 00:02:59,920
with representing India in the space now

31
00:03:13,910 --> 00:03:09,500
thank you so very much

32
00:03:16,390 --> 00:03:13,920

calplan I do not know if you remember

34
00:03:24,050 --> 00:03:21,090
they saying one of our poets was very

35
00:03:27,319 --> 00:03:24,060
well known in the subcontinent Iqbal he

36
00:03:31,009 --> 00:03:27,329
said this seat ROC Agha jaha our behave

37
00:03:43,210 --> 00:03:31,019
their world beyond star and now you have

38
00:03:51,589 --> 00:03:46,550
look at it what you are saying does

39
00:03:56,050 --> 00:03:51,599
because the neutral it's a dome of a

40
00:03:59,119 --> 00:03:56,060
dark sky and stars everywhere the earth

41
00:04:02,990 --> 00:03:59,129
lifetime covered with thunderstorms here

42
00:04:06,199 --> 00:04:03,000
a girl with some small phase of

43
00:04:11,479 --> 00:04:06,209
lightning every once in a while city

44
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:11,489
lights the clouds it is very much like a

45
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:15,690
storybook the crew that I'm working with

46
00:04:23,379 --> 00:04:18,570
out here all of us work so well together

47
00:04:27,730 --> 00:04:23,389
and it's such an honor to be able to

48
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:27,740
this very special mission with us

49
00:04:33,379 --> 00:04:31,289
it was a wonderful feeling that your

50
00:04:36,860 --> 00:04:33,389
journey is expanded the frontiers of

51
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:36,870
science and technology also at the same

52
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:39,930
time you are built another new and very

53
00:04:57,110 --> 00:04:42,570
formidable and a strong bridge between

54
00:04:59,089 --> 00:04:57,120
India and America and in our bit Kalpana

55
00:05:01,850 --> 00:04:59,099
how do you feel without weight

56
00:05:05,740 --> 00:05:01,860
weightlessness is it very difficult

57
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:11,080
as you can tell right now via sweet a

58
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:14,330
bird I think I just moving all over I

59
00:05:22,150 --> 00:05:17,210
will start just moving things out of my

60
00:05:23,530 --> 00:05:22,160
way with my legs actually it's that very

61
00:05:28,330 --> 00:05:23,540
difficult at all

62
00:05:30,810 --> 00:05:28,340
you get very used to it very fast so to

63
00:05:34,510 --> 00:05:30,820
go from one thing to another

64
00:05:37,030 --> 00:05:34,520
well this end up telling yourself take

65
00:05:39,790 --> 00:05:37,040
it easy don't try to do very fast

66
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:39,800
because otherwise you are just tumbling

67
00:05:47,050 --> 00:05:43,970
all over so zactly is the way to go

68
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:47,060
must be very interesting to sit with

69
00:05:51,010 --> 00:05:49,450
colleagues and friends in the same

70
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:51,020
weightlessness

71
00:06:10,260 --> 00:05:53,410
it is a very interesting experience and

72
00:06:16,180 --> 00:06:13,420
cultures together and it's just a lot of

73
00:06:19,930 --> 00:06:16,190
fun it was fun while we came together

74
00:06:22,840 --> 00:06:19,940
and now it's face to I don't know if

75
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:22,850
from your satellite you can see some

76
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:25,610
other Indian satellites also which are

77
00:06:40,330 --> 00:06:28,610
also in the space projecting Indian

78
00:06:43,300 --> 00:06:40,340
television program to every home yes but

79
00:06:45,670 --> 00:06:43,310
you know we are also our scientists and

80
00:06:48,460 --> 00:06:45,680
our technologies are sharing the same

81
00:07:08,310 --> 00:06:48,470
experience of space they have not gone

82
00:07:15,430 --> 00:07:12,969
following news out here and I want to

83
00:07:17,860 --> 00:07:15,440

with all your friends in the satellite

87
00:07:34,490 --> 00:07:31,980

and it was in that area where a famous

106
00:09:00,710 --> 00:08:48,960
poet Kalidas was there wrote that famous

107
00:09:01,340 --> 00:09:00,720
song about swim of this man and you are

108
00:09:10,730 --> 00:09:01,350

very much thank you for calling us

114
00:09:33,380 --> 00:09:32,700
doctor orbiter if you would just take a

115
00:09:35,630 --> 00:09:33,390
second

116
00:09:39,079 --> 00:09:35,640
the couple of days ago we took the view

117
00:09:42,560 --> 00:09:39,089
of him always from the orbiter and I

118
00:09:44,420 --> 00:09:42,570
would downlink it to you for a minute or

119
00:09:52,699 --> 00:09:44,430
so and we can be talking while that's

120
00:09:55,639 --> 00:09:52,709
happening thank you surprised uh all the

121
00:09:59,540 --> 00:09:55,649
people from Italy we took this view a

122
00:10:02,780 --> 00:09:59,550
few days ago I hope that maybe by chance

123
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:02,790
and the Koala came we'd be flying over

124
00:10:09,130 --> 00:10:05,610
some regions that folks to us and we

125
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:09,140
love it but the view of Somalia's is so

126
00:10:19,190 --> 00:10:12,810
magnificent that it really locks to all

127
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:19,200
of us as you can see on this video thank

128
00:10:31,970 --> 00:10:29,330
Kevin good morning for us think good

129
00:10:34,940 --> 00:10:31,980
afternoon or good evening for you it's

130
00:10:37,390 --> 00:10:34,950
amazing that we are on day seventy six

131
00:10:40,730 --> 00:10:37,400
of our 91 day stay in this chamber and

132
00:10:43,910 --> 00:10:40,740
you're on day 14 or 15 out of one more

133
00:10:46,100 --> 00:10:43,920
day to go and we feel that the end of

134
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:46,110
this test is right around the corner

135
00:10:50,030 --> 00:10:48,210
we're wondering it's strange to see that

136
00:10:52,370 --> 00:10:50,040
we may have the same feelings on

137
00:10:54,560 --> 00:10:52,380
different duration flights well now to

138
00:10:57,020 --> 00:10:54,570
your right we're just about ready to

139
00:10:59,960 --> 00:10:57,030
finish our mission we only have one day

140
00:11:03,410 --> 00:10:59,970
left but it sure has flown by I hope

141
00:11:05,810 --> 00:11:03,420
yours has done the same if you're doing

142
00:11:07,700 --> 00:11:05,820
some good work and you've done some good

143
00:11:11,630 --> 00:11:07,710
science good research for a good fall

144
00:11:13,910 --> 00:11:11,640
cause things tend to go very quickly I

145
00:11:15,890 --> 00:11:13,920
just want to say hi to yourself and the

146
00:11:18,500 --> 00:11:15,900
Vicki we miss her and all the food that

147
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:18,510
she supports with and also the John and

148
00:11:25,790 --> 00:11:21,810
Laura and if I could I want to show you

149
00:11:27,890 --> 00:11:25,800
one thing now I was there when you went

150
00:11:30,890 --> 00:11:27,900
into the chamber and we took chatted a

151
00:11:33,680 --> 00:11:30,900
couple of times over email and I you

152
00:11:36,230 --> 00:11:33,690
folks it came up with a possible problem

153
00:11:38,750 --> 00:11:36,240
with iodine in the water and as you know

154
00:11:41,570 --> 00:11:38,760
there was a last-minute addition to our

155
00:11:42,980 --> 00:11:41,580
flight and thanks to your research that

156
00:11:44,870 --> 00:11:42,990
you're doing and then the folks on the

157
00:11:46,340 --> 00:11:44,880
ground find a solution we have that

158
00:12:03,040 --> 00:11:46,350
incorporated right here and let me show

159
00:12:08,890 --> 00:12:06,550
as your filtration system that takes out

160
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:08,900
our I indict a water we also have the

161
00:12:14,830 --> 00:12:12,170
filter and as you can see it just sucks

162
00:12:17,560 --> 00:12:14,840
in quite nicely between our cabinet on

163
00:12:19,870 --> 00:12:17,570
the Mar and the galley so it really

164
00:12:22,180 --> 00:12:19,880
hasn't been a an inconvenience at all

165
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:22,190
the water comes out a little bit slower

166
00:12:26,950 --> 00:12:24,770
but hopefully in long-term health

167
00:12:28,660 --> 00:12:26,960
benefits especially on the shuttle and

168
00:12:33,730 --> 00:12:28,670
the International Space Station will all

169
00:12:36,070 --> 00:12:33,740
benefit from it certainly can sympathize

170
00:12:37,510 --> 00:12:36,080
with you on that one Kevin and the hard

171
00:12:39,970 --> 00:12:37,520
way you have in your hand is one that I

172
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:39,980
had slated for STS 89 but I guess we'll

173
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:42,410
get another one for Terry for that we'd

174
00:12:45,130 --> 00:12:43,970
like to hand it on to John now I think

175
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:45,140
he has a couple of other questions for

176
00:12:53,260 --> 00:12:50,890
you morning yeah I'm glad to see that

177
00:12:55,690 --> 00:12:53,270
something that one of our former test

178
00:12:59,170 --> 00:12:55,700
directors worked on work great in the

179
00:13:01,750 --> 00:12:59,180
payload Bay and more was IDI was a

180
00:13:05,410 --> 00:13:01,760
Nigel's test director for his 15 days

181
00:13:07,540 --> 00:13:05,420
with the wheat plants and he was also

182
00:13:09,730 --> 00:13:07,550
one of the key guys working on the

183
00:13:11,230 --> 00:13:09,740
sprint cam I was wondering what your

184
00:13:16,060 --> 00:13:11,240
thoughts were on his performance in the

185
00:13:20,350 --> 00:13:16,070
CVA well we were real happy to get a

186
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:20,360
second chance for do a spacewalk and to

187
00:13:25,660 --> 00:13:23,450
fly the sprint and Steve did the flying

188
00:13:28,210 --> 00:13:25,670
of a sprint and if you saw any pictures

189
00:13:30,940 --> 00:13:28,220
of it it just handled like a dream it

190
00:13:33,460 --> 00:13:30,950
actually handled handling qualities

191
00:13:36,070 --> 00:13:33,470
better than the simulator and the

192
00:13:38,560 --> 00:13:36,080
virtual reality lab it really has

193
00:13:43,060 --> 00:13:38,570
tremendous potential the video was a

194
00:13:44,740 --> 00:13:43,070
little bit intermittent but we knew that

195
00:13:47,500 --> 00:13:44,750
going into the test because the antennas

196
00:13:49,810 --> 00:13:47,510
aren't optimized at this time but I

197
00:13:51,730 --> 00:13:49,820
think for future shuttle missions and

198
00:13:56,050 --> 00:13:51,740
definitely on the international space

199
00:13:57,490 --> 00:13:56,060
station that technology really has great

200
00:14:01,390 --> 00:13:57,500
potential and this is a homegrown

201
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:01,400
Johnson Space Center project it was done

202
00:14:07,180 --> 00:14:04,010
a very tight budget and the guys really
