1 00:00:05,269 --> 00:00:03,270 endeavor this is john zarrow cnn how do 2 00:00:09,270 --> 00:00:05,279 you hear me 3 00:00:15,030 --> 00:00:11,430 hello john uh we on space shuttle 4 00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:16,950 you later clear 5 00:00:20,790 --> 00:00:18,950 well it's great to talk with you you 6 00:00:22,950 --> 00:00:20,800 installed the cupola you spoke with the 7 00:00:25,109 --> 00:00:22,960 president you had the kids ask you some 8 00:00:26,630 --> 00:00:25,119 questions your mission got extended by a 9 00:00:29,349 --> 00:00:26,640 day maybe more 10 00:00:38,869 --> 00:00:29,359 um how do you characterize it exciting 11 00:00:45,190 --> 00:00:42,389 this is a great mission the extended day 12 00:00:47,190 --> 00:00:45,200 while docked was very important to us 13 00:00:49,270 --> 00:00:47,200 that allowed us to complete more of the 14 00:00:51,750 --> 00:00:49,280 work that we had planned 15 00:00:54,069 --> 00:00:51,760 and just can't describe how wonderful it 16 00:00:55,910 --> 00:00:54,079 was to look out the cupola and see that 17 00:00:57,430 --> 00:00:55,920 wonderful 18 00:00:59,110 --> 00:00:57,440 note 3 19 00:01:02,069 --> 00:00:59,120 on board the international space station 20 00:01:04,310 --> 00:01:02,079 especially as we undocked so 21 00:01:06,870 --> 00:01:04,320 we're all just really excited about how 22 00:01:12,950 --> 00:01:06,880 well things have gone and very pleased 23 00:01:19,030 --> 00:01:15,429 you mentioned the cupola and i know it 24 00:01:21,190 --> 00:01:19,040 has some very practical purposes and uh 25 00:01:22,469 --> 00:01:21,200 but from that standpoint what you just 26 00:01:25,749 --> 00:01:22,479 mentioned kay 27 00:01:27,990 --> 00:01:25,759 uh being able to see out that window 28 00:01:29,670 --> 00:01:28,000 the clarity for for those of you i guess 29 00:01:31,350 --> 00:01:29,680 all of you had a chance to to take a 30 00:01:33,270 --> 00:01:31,360 peek at least 31 00:01:35,190 --> 00:01:33,280 what was it like what were you able to 32 00:01:36,870 --> 00:01:35,200 see that you can't see 33 00:01:40,230 --> 00:01:36,880 that you couldn't see before you 34 00:01:46,710 --> 00:01:40,240 installed the cupola 35 00:01:50,230 --> 00:01:48,389 hey john i wish we could show you that 36 00:01:51,429 --> 00:01:50,240 cupola view because i think all of us 37 00:01:53,429 --> 00:01:51,439 are going to probably spend the rest of 38 00:01:55,590 --> 00:01:53,439 our days trying to describe what it was 39 00:01:57,270 --> 00:01:55,600 like especially the first time 40 00:02:00,149 --> 00:01:57,280 most of us have been in space before 41 00:02:02,709 --> 00:02:00,159 sometimes for a fair amount of time but 42 00:02:06,230 --> 00:02:02,719 believe me poking your head up into that 43 00:02:08,710 --> 00:02:06,240 all-around surround view 360 degrees 44 00:02:10,790 --> 00:02:08,720 while the earth is around earth in three 45 00:02:12,309 --> 00:02:10,800 dimensions is spinning by below you and 46 00:02:14,229 --> 00:02:12,319 you see this beautiful space station 47 00:02:16,309 --> 00:02:14,239 almost kind of wrapped around you 48 00:02:18,470 --> 00:02:16,319 and then this sort of otherworldly 49 00:02:20,229 --> 00:02:18,480 looking space shuttle attached to that 50 00:02:21,270 --> 00:02:20,239 there's so much to look at and so much 51 00:02:22,869 --> 00:02:21,280 changing 52 00:02:24,550 --> 00:02:22,879 that i don't think the human race has 53 00:02:32,869 --> 00:02:24,560 really evolved to come up with 54 00:02:32,879 --> 00:02:41,910 anybody else 55 00:02:45,750 --> 00:02:43,509 well like you said john there are some 56 00:02:47,509 --> 00:02:45,760 practical purposes one day we had to 57 00:02:49,110 --> 00:02:47,519 move several robotic arms and we got a 58 00:02:50,869 --> 00:02:49,120 chance to use the cupola to watch that 59 00:02:52,869 --> 00:02:50,879 maneuver for the first time 60 00:02:54,710 --> 00:02:52,879 but the the view is what i think is 61 00:02:55,910 --> 00:02:54,720 really going to stick with any anybody 62 00:02:57,509 --> 00:02:55,920 who has the 63 00:02:59,270 --> 00:02:57,519 luck and good fortune and honor to be 64 00:03:01,509 --> 00:02:59,280 able to look out of it the one thing you 65 00:03:03,030 --> 00:03:01,519 can do in the cupola that's different 66 00:03:04,550 --> 00:03:03,040 than all the other windows that we have 67 00:03:06,229 --> 00:03:04,560 is you can 68 00:03:07,830 --> 00:03:06,239 kind of bend your head back and take in 69 00:03:09,350 --> 00:03:07,840 the view and out of the side of your 70 00:03:11,270 --> 00:03:09,360 eyes and the top of your eyes in the 71 00:03:13,110 --> 00:03:11,280 bottom of your eyes in all directions 72 00:03:15,430 --> 00:03:13,120 you can see the earth and you can see 73 00:03:17,990 --> 00:03:15,440 space and you can see so much more than 74 00:03:20,070 --> 00:03:18,000 you can looking out just one flat window 75 00:03:21,670 --> 00:03:20,080 that it really gives you a sense 76 00:03:23,670 --> 00:03:21,680 i know i had the sense and several other 77 00:03:25,030 --> 00:03:23,680 people said the same thing that uh oh 78 00:03:26,789 --> 00:03:25,040 that's what's out there so we had been 79 00:03:28,070 --> 00:03:26,799 looking through these other really 80 00:03:29,750 --> 00:03:28,080 really nice 81 00:03:31,830 --> 00:03:29,760 spectacular views that i had never seen 82 00:03:33,430 --> 00:03:31,840 as my first flight but when when we 83 00:03:34,949 --> 00:03:33,440 looked at it there it you kind of got 84 00:03:37,190 --> 00:03:34,959 the sense that wow that's what that's 85 00:03:38,470 --> 00:03:37,200 what's really out there so it was it's 86 00:03:39,830 --> 00:03:38,480 pretty special and i wish we could 87 00:03:44,789 --> 00:03:39,840 describe it better it's just hard to 88 00:03:48,869 --> 00:03:47,110 when you pulled away from the station 89 00:03:51,750 --> 00:03:48,879 undocked and pulled away and you're 90 00:03:54,949 --> 00:03:51,760 seeing it from the space shuttle um it 91 00:03:57,670 --> 00:03:54,959 may well be the last time the six of you 92 00:04:00,630 --> 00:03:57,680 will ever see it quite like that 93 00:04:02,630 --> 00:04:00,640 uh pulling away in a space shuttle 94 00:04:04,470 --> 00:04:02,640 uh what was going through your minds or 95 00:04:12,789 --> 00:04:04,480 were you just concentrating on on the 96 00:04:16,469 --> 00:04:14,550 you're right with the end of the shuttle 97 00:04:18,390 --> 00:04:16,479 program uh coming up here it might be 98 00:04:20,069 --> 00:04:18,400 the last time that each of the six of us 99 00:04:22,629 --> 00:04:20,079 gets the chance to actually look at the 100 00:04:25,430 --> 00:04:22,639 space station from the deck of a space 101 00:04:27,510 --> 00:04:25,440 shuttle um it was a remarkable view the 102 00:04:29,430 --> 00:04:27,520 undocking happened at the the perfect 103 00:04:31,830 --> 00:04:29,440 time so that when we did the fly around 104 00:04:33,830 --> 00:04:31,840 when terry our pilot did the fly around 105 00:04:35,670 --> 00:04:33,840 we basically had the space station in 106 00:04:36,950 --> 00:04:35,680 perfect lighting conditions and we we 107 00:04:39,350 --> 00:04:36,960 think we really 108 00:04:41,749 --> 00:04:39,360 got some excellent pictures and i think 109 00:04:44,310 --> 00:04:41,759 each one of us took the extra moment to 110 00:04:46,469 --> 00:04:44,320 get a chance to take take in that view 111 00:04:49,110 --> 00:04:46,479 of this completed space station at this 112 00:04:54,950 --> 00:04:49,120 point and really we're just in awe as we 113 00:04:59,030 --> 00:04:56,629 i i don't know of course what any of 114 00:05:01,670 --> 00:04:59,040 your future plans are but the next time 115 00:05:03,029 --> 00:05:01,680 any of you fly if it's not on a soyuz it 116 00:05:05,670 --> 00:05:03,039 could well be on a commercially 117 00:05:14,310 --> 00:05:05,680 developed vehicle uh you guys okay with 118 00:05:18,550 --> 00:05:16,629 i think any way you can fly in space is 119 00:05:19,830 --> 00:05:18,560 a good way to fly in space i'm sure that 120 00:05:21,510 --> 00:05:19,840 by the time 121 00:05:23,350 --> 00:05:21,520 commercial vehicles have come along a 122 00:05:24,790 --> 00:05:23,360 little farther they'll be the kinds of 123 00:05:26,710 --> 00:05:24,800 vehicles we would all really enjoy 124 00:05:28,710 --> 00:05:26,720 flying on so i didn't see any problem 125 00:05:34,310 --> 00:05:28,720 with that we we hope it happens soon 126 00:05:38,390 --> 00:05:37,110 your mission extended already by a day 127 00:05:40,310 --> 00:05:38,400 and with the weather 128 00:05:43,430 --> 00:05:40,320 down here on earth not necessarily all 129 00:05:45,350 --> 00:05:43,440 that great tomorrow um 130 00:05:47,270 --> 00:05:45,360 and being the fact that it's the last 131 00:05:48,710 --> 00:05:47,280 time any of you will likely fly on a 132 00:05:54,550 --> 00:05:48,720 shuttle you're glad to get the extra 133 00:05:59,029 --> 00:05:57,270 oh absolutely uh you know anytime we get 134 00:06:00,790 --> 00:05:59,039 to spend up on the flight deck uh 135 00:06:02,950 --> 00:06:00,800 especially now that we have a really 136 00:06:06,309 --> 00:06:02,960 clear view we just look outside and just 137 00:06:08,469 --> 00:06:06,319 marvel at creation below us you get 138 00:06:10,070 --> 00:06:08,479 variations in cloud patterns and hues 139 00:06:11,909 --> 00:06:10,080 and every once in a while something 140 00:06:13,749 --> 00:06:11,919 stark comes into view either a desert or 141 00:06:15,430 --> 00:06:13,759 a mountain range and 142 00:06:21,029 --> 00:06:15,440 if we end up spending some extra time up 143 00:06:26,469 --> 00:06:23,270 you know kay uh i talked recently with 144 00:06:29,670 --> 00:06:26,479 nicole scott and katie coleman uh about 145 00:06:32,790 --> 00:06:29,680 the chick network and uh wanted to ask 146 00:06:35,510 --> 00:06:32,800 you uh sharing tips hair what got you 147 00:06:37,830 --> 00:06:35,520 the best hairstyle the shampoos when you 148 00:06:39,670 --> 00:06:37,840 first flew the first time did you get 149 00:06:46,710 --> 00:06:39,680 tips from the other ladies who had flown 150 00:06:52,550 --> 00:06:49,430 oh absolutely everyone in the astronaut 151 00:06:54,390 --> 00:06:52,560 office shares little tips and tricks to 152 00:06:56,150 --> 00:06:54,400 make life a little bit easier here in 153 00:06:58,790 --> 00:06:56,160 microgravity 154 00:07:02,230 --> 00:06:58,800 it's a challenge for everyone because 155 00:07:04,629 --> 00:07:02,240 we're born and raised accustomed to one 156 00:07:06,710 --> 00:07:04,639 g or the effect of gravity on the 157 00:07:08,950 --> 00:07:06,720 surface of the earth and just little 158 00:07:11,350 --> 00:07:08,960 things like just uh the fact that when 159 00:07:13,110 --> 00:07:11,360 you lose track of something you tend to 160 00:07:15,029 --> 00:07:13,120 look down on the surface of the earth 161 00:07:16,950 --> 00:07:15,039 and here in space you have to look all 162 00:07:19,350 --> 00:07:16,960 around you and maybe above you and 163 00:07:21,270 --> 00:07:19,360 behind you and beneath you where 164 00:07:23,670 --> 00:07:21,280 something you may have just let go of 165 00:07:25,670 --> 00:07:23,680 have floated off to so yeah as you 166 00:07:27,189 --> 00:07:25,680 notice i've got my hair pulled back here 167 00:07:28,870 --> 00:07:27,199 it's it's a little bit better to just 168 00:07:30,550 --> 00:07:28,880 kind of keep it a little bit constrained 169 00:07:32,870 --> 00:07:30,560 if i let it go right now it just kind of 170 00:07:34,950 --> 00:07:32,880 go all over the place and and it could 171 00:07:37,029 --> 00:07:34,960 be a little bit of a problem if 172 00:07:39,029 --> 00:07:37,039 unmanaged like that it's kind of fun to 173 00:07:40,790 --> 00:07:39,039 take pictures occasionally 174 00:07:42,830 --> 00:07:40,800 with the hair all over the place but it 175 00:07:45,830 --> 00:07:42,840 can be an issue in a 176 00:07:47,589 --> 00:07:45,840 technical spacecraft like this and plus 177 00:07:49,189 --> 00:07:47,599 it's a little bit rude to my crewmates 178 00:07:52,550 --> 00:07:49,199 to be slapping them in the face with my 179 00:07:54,550 --> 00:07:52,560 hair as i float by so anyway we do all 180 00:07:57,350 --> 00:07:54,560 share tips on how to make life a little 181 00:08:00,309 --> 00:07:57,360 bit easier here in microgravity and we 182 00:08:03,909 --> 00:08:02,070 and we all enjoy it 183 00:08:05,909 --> 00:08:03,919 well we look forward to seeing the 184 00:08:08,150 --> 00:08:05,919 back on earth here real
