00:00:11,190 --> 00:00:09,509
hi i'm mike massimino we've been

2
00:00:12,549 --> 00:00:11,200
following along with the astronauts who

3
00:00:14,150 --> 00:00:12,559
are going to fly the next shuttle

4
00:00:15,190 --> 00:00:14,160
mission to the international space

5
00:00:17,109 --> 00:00:15,200
station

6
00:00:19,029 --> 00:00:17,119
what you are about to see is the crew

7
00:00:21,029 --> 00:00:19,039
practicing for their mission the team

8
00:00:23,349 --> 00:00:21,039
that is responsible for training them

9
00:00:24,470 --> 00:00:23,359
and get a sense of what it's like to fly

10
00:00:25,390 --> 00:00:24,480
the shuttle

11
00:00:59,029 --> 00:00:25,400
this is

12
00:01:03,029 --> 00:01:01,510
matt you came you can pick me up here

13
00:01:04,950 --> 00:01:03,039
because i can't be trusted down here by

14
00:01:07,030 --> 00:01:04,960
myself cold winter day didn't want you

15
00:01:08,789 --> 00:01:07,040
to get lost in a snow drifts yes but

16
00:01:10,390 --> 00:01:08,799
that's yeah down here in florida but it

17
00:01:12,070 --> 00:01:10,400
is pretty cold that was in houston it

18
00:01:13,830 --> 00:01:12,080
was freezing i heard that it's a lot

19
00:01:15,910 --> 00:01:13,840
warmer here than it was in houston yeah

20
00:01:17,350 --> 00:01:15,920
yeah here in florida well they've plowed

21
00:01:19,350 --> 00:01:17,360
the roads here so we can get over to the

22
00:01:21,510 --> 00:01:19,360
opf in time excellent

23
00:01:23,510 --> 00:01:21,520
and a lot of salt and sand on the road

24
00:01:24,950 --> 00:01:23,520
but we can still get there and uh all

25
00:01:26,310 --> 00:01:24,960
right and you said opf because that's

26
00:01:28,390 --> 00:01:26,320
what we're going but that stands for

27
00:01:31,270 --> 00:01:28,400
orbiter processing facility you got it

28
00:01:33,510 --> 00:01:31,280
that's the uh the garage for the space

29
00:01:34,789 --> 00:01:33,520
shuttle yep right we got three garages

30
00:01:36,710 --> 00:01:34,799
and three shuttles and that's where all

31
00:01:38,950 --> 00:01:36,720
right work on them that's where 90 of

32
00:01:40,310 --> 00:01:38,960
the work of the shuttle is done okay

33
00:01:42,469 --> 00:01:40,320
and here we are this is the vehicle

34
00:01:44,069 --> 00:01:42,479
assembly building the space shuttle then

35
00:01:45,910 --> 00:01:44,079
be taken into here

36
00:01:47,429 --> 00:01:45,920
and get on a gigantic train and stacked

37
00:01:49,749 --> 00:01:47,439
with its rockets right in this big

38
00:01:51,990 --> 00:01:49,759
building we roll it over

39
00:01:54,389 --> 00:01:52,000
on a transporter and pick it up with

40
00:01:56,789 --> 00:01:54,399
cranes and we'll attach it to

41
00:01:59,109 --> 00:01:56,799
right now the mlp which is the mobile

42
00:02:00,789 --> 00:01:59,119
launch platform and two srbs and one

43
00:02:02,310 --> 00:02:00,799
tank will be sitting there waiting for

44
00:02:03,990 --> 00:02:02,320
it they'll pick it up and they'll attach

45
00:02:06,149 --> 00:02:04,000
it to that srbs at a rocket send to

46
00:02:07,749 --> 00:02:06,159
white rockets on the outside yeah and

47
00:02:09,270 --> 00:02:07,759
it'll be in there for seven days and

48
00:02:11,350 --> 00:02:09,280
then they'll roll it to the pad all

49
00:02:12,790 --> 00:02:11,360
right and then they'll launch it

50
00:02:14,309 --> 00:02:12,800
and there's the vehicle that rolls over

51
00:02:15,670 --> 00:02:14,319
on right there that yellow piece right

52
00:02:18,309 --> 00:02:15,680
there see the yellow thing straight

53
00:02:20,150 --> 00:02:18,319
ahead oh straight ahead okay so you roll

54
00:02:21,589 --> 00:02:20,160
the orbiter goes on top of there the

55
00:02:24,390 --> 00:02:21,599
orbiter goes on top of that and that's

56
00:02:26,630 --> 00:02:24,400
how we roll it over to the opf

57
00:02:27,910 --> 00:02:26,640
to the vehicle assembly building from

58
00:02:29,030 --> 00:02:27,920
where we are now the vehicle assembly

59
00:02:30,710 --> 00:02:29,040
building that's how we get it over there

60
00:02:33,030 --> 00:02:30,720
we used to take it over on its wheels

61
00:02:35,509 --> 00:02:33,040
but then you have the potential to pick

62
00:02:37,430 --> 00:02:35,519
up some that's all you need some glasses

63
00:02:39,030 --> 00:02:37,440
yeah you don't have tires no we don't

64
00:02:40,869 --> 00:02:39,040
want any damage to the tire so we want

65
00:02:42,550 --> 00:02:40,879
to be able to check them last in here

66
00:02:43,670 --> 00:02:42,560
right and then that'll be it excellent

67
00:02:45,990 --> 00:02:43,680
and this is where we're going this is

68
00:02:47,509 --> 00:02:46,000
the open processing facility here yeah

69
00:02:48,949 --> 00:02:47,519
they're number three is that with space

70
00:02:50,229 --> 00:02:48,959
shows behind those doors right behind

71
00:02:52,070 --> 00:02:50,239
you it's a real spaceship you see the

72
00:02:54,070 --> 00:02:52,080
notch right up there with it there's the

73
00:02:56,070 --> 00:02:54,080
for the tail yeah right there it's like

74
00:02:57,670 --> 00:02:56,080
an afterthought like oh how are we gonna

75
00:02:59,190 --> 00:02:57,680
get it out

76
00:03:00,869 --> 00:02:59,200
how are we gonna get it in

77
00:03:02,470 --> 00:03:00,879
yeah what do you got what's on your list

78
00:03:03,830 --> 00:03:02,480

everything check out everything and then

82
00:03:11,190 --> 00:03:08,640
i guess we all head over to the space

83
00:03:13,350 --> 00:03:11,200
station processing facility right we uh

84
00:03:14,630 --> 00:03:13,360
do some work inside the mplm right

85
00:03:16,830 --> 00:03:14,640

these guys are getting ready to fly in

143
00:04:57,749 --> 00:04:56,000
the space shuttle you're worried about

144
00:04:59,110 --> 00:04:57,759
my pastrami center i think we'll go good

145
00:05:01,029 --> 00:04:59,120
that's that'll be good all right you got

146
00:05:02,710 --> 00:05:01,039
any you got any different colors

147
00:05:04,790 --> 00:05:02,720
is that the only color we got well

148
00:05:10,390 --> 00:05:04,800
sometimes no i'm joking green is perfect

149
00:05:13,590 --> 00:05:11,670
all right they wear blue all the time

150
00:05:15,029 --> 00:05:13,600
give them a different color

151
00:05:16,870 --> 00:05:15,039
so this is this is like the space

152
00:05:17,909 --> 00:05:16,880
shuttle wardrobe closet here exactly

153
00:05:21,350 --> 00:05:17,919
that's where we got it i am your

154
00:05:25,830 --> 00:05:23,590
so we can't see it no a different color

155
00:05:27,590 --> 00:05:25,840
maybe like red or blue no no no no no no

156
00:05:30,790 --> 00:05:27,600
no

157
00:05:34,230 --> 00:05:30,800
think so double up why are you getting

158
00:05:51,029 --> 00:05:35,430
all right look there's the crew down

159
00:05:54,950 --> 00:05:52,550
that's you guys dottie look there you

160
00:05:56,629 --> 00:05:54,960
are i know you're right there but look

161
00:05:58,390 --> 00:05:56,639
at these two guys

162
00:06:00,870 --> 00:05:58,400
oh and how old that picture is that's

163
00:06:02,150 --> 00:06:00,880
mistrachio's high school picture i think

164
00:06:03,350 --> 00:06:02,160
look at that thing rick i didn't know

165
00:06:07,029 --> 00:06:03,360
you were i didn't know you were an

166
00:06:09,110 --> 00:06:07,039
astronaut when you were 17.

167
00:06:10,390 --> 00:06:09,120
they had your picture up there i know

168
00:06:12,309 --> 00:06:10,400
they figured that they didn't realize

169
00:06:13,990 --> 00:06:12,319
they had two italians in the program

170
00:06:15,830 --> 00:06:14,000
they got us mixed up

171
00:06:17,350 --> 00:06:15,840
we'll see inside

172
00:06:20,070 --> 00:06:17,360
squeeze so many people over here we are

173
00:06:22,469 --> 00:06:20,080
at the nose of the space shuttle

174
00:06:23,990 --> 00:06:22,479
that's the nose of the space shuttle

175
00:06:28,870 --> 00:06:24,000
you can see some windows behind the

176
00:06:31,909 --> 00:06:30,629
so what we got is window shaped bags

177
00:06:33,590 --> 00:06:31,919
that's it they're going to go through

178
00:06:34,870 --> 00:06:33,600
that they make sure you know they what

179
00:06:36,309 --> 00:06:34,880
they're going to put in there exactly

180
00:06:37,430 --> 00:06:36,319
it's all built up for them so now they

181
00:06:38,870 --> 00:06:37,440
get to go through it and verify

182
00:06:40,150 --> 00:06:38,880
everything's where they expect it to be

183
00:06:46,710 --> 00:06:40,160
right and everything looks like what

184
00:06:50,309 --> 00:06:48,550
that goes on your side so it's not just

185
00:06:52,070 --> 00:06:50,319

188
00:06:56,230 --> 00:06:54,800
this that you know every time you go

189
00:06:57,189 --> 00:06:56,240
around the earth every 90 minutes yeah i

190
00:06:58,629 --> 00:06:57,199
mean i mean you're gonna have a lot of

191
00:07:00,629 --> 00:06:58,639
sun very bright it's gonna keep you

00:07:01,909 --> 00:07:00,639
awake sunrise sunset

193
00:07:03,430 --> 00:07:01,919
so you put

194
00:07:05,830 --> 00:07:03,440
but they also store other stuff in there

195
00:07:08,309 --> 00:07:05,840
too little platforms oh you have some

196
00:07:09,749 --> 00:07:08,319
ifs astronomy sandwich i wish

197
00:07:11,029 --> 00:07:09,759
you if you asked for one we can put one

198
00:07:12,390 --> 00:07:11,039
now you're saying they've got some ifm

199
00:07:14,309 --> 00:07:12,400
which is in-flight maintenance got some

200
00:07:16,390 --> 00:07:14,319
hoses here all right

201
00:07:17,430 --> 00:07:16,400
so clay and rick are the space walkers

202
00:07:19,749 --> 00:07:17,440
right

203
00:07:21,270 --> 00:07:19,759
daddy you're the iv person

204
00:07:22,790 --> 00:07:21,280
is jim help him with suit up or is he an

205
00:07:24,710 --> 00:07:22,800
iv person too

206
00:07:26,309 --> 00:07:24,720
so jim's going to shoot him up and

207
00:07:28,390 --> 00:07:26,319
you're going to tell him what to do

208
00:07:32,390 --> 00:07:28,400
all right do they listen to you yes

209
00:07:36,870 --> 00:07:34,309
this is it look at that those are all

210
00:07:39,110 --> 00:07:36,880
the tiles see nothing but tiles

211
00:07:40,070 --> 00:07:39,120
25 000 tiles all different shapes and

212
00:07:44,150 --> 00:07:40,080
sizes

213
00:07:46,230 --> 00:07:44,160
25 000. protect the vehicle on re-entry

214
00:07:47,830 --> 00:07:46,240
and you can see all the discoloration

215
00:07:49,830 --> 00:07:47,840
you can see most of a lot of these tiles

216
00:07:51,270 --> 00:07:49,840
have been here since day one really yeah

217
00:07:52,790 --> 00:07:51,280
they're already damaged right you

218
00:07:54,150 --> 00:07:52,800
replace them as you can kind of see if

219
00:07:55,830 --> 00:07:54,160
you can zoom in on there you see the

220
00:07:57,990 --> 00:07:55,840
black the black ones yeah the dark black

221
00:08:00,629 --> 00:07:58,000
ones are the newer ones been repaired

222
00:08:02,629 --> 00:08:00,639
yeah all right and uh as a side note

223
00:08:03,830 --> 00:08:02,639
that little round circle there

224
00:08:05,589 --> 00:08:03,840
uh one of the things we have to do

225
00:08:07,510 --> 00:08:05,599
before we go which one on any one of

226
00:08:09,990 --> 00:08:07,520
them anyone in the little circle yes we

227
00:08:12,070 --> 00:08:10,000
have to waterproof each tile

228
00:08:14,950 --> 00:08:12,080
each tile because these are nothing more

229
00:08:17,270 --> 00:08:14,960
than ceramic sponges right and these

230
00:08:19,909 --> 00:08:17,280
will drink stuff twice their weight in

231
00:08:21,350 --> 00:08:19,919
water all right and we can't go ahead

232
00:08:22,869 --> 00:08:21,360
hey if you take it to the pad and it

233
00:08:24,550 --> 00:08:22,879
rains it'll drink that much water and

234
00:08:25,830 --> 00:08:24,560
then obviously it's a whole lot heavier

235
00:08:27,430 --> 00:08:25,840
and then even worse when you get up

236
00:08:29,350 --> 00:08:27,440
there that ice expands and this whole

237
00:08:31,430 --> 00:08:29,360
thing would crack okay so we fill it

238
00:08:33,750 --> 00:08:31,440
with a waterproofing which is kind of

239
00:08:35,269 --> 00:08:33,760
like a scotch guard and it keeps it

240
00:08:37,110 --> 00:08:35,279
waterproof so it doesn't absorb any of

241
00:08:39,589 --> 00:08:37,120
that water so each one of these tiles

242
00:08:41,269 --> 00:08:39,599
has to be individually waterproof prior

243
00:08:42,790 --> 00:08:41,279
to rolling out

244
00:08:43,670 --> 00:08:42,800
big job

245
00:08:46,310 --> 00:08:43,680
yeah

246
00:08:47,910 --> 00:08:46,320
so this is the crew cabin

247
00:08:49,190 --> 00:08:47,920
and we make sure we protect the windows

248
00:08:51,110 --> 00:08:49,200
all the windows are under these hard

249
00:08:53,190 --> 00:08:51,120
covers right in case something does

250
00:08:54,630 --> 00:08:53,200
happen we protect those those are

251
00:08:55,670 --> 00:08:54,640
very time consuming to replace the

252
00:08:57,910 --> 00:08:55,680
windows

253
00:08:59,670 --> 00:08:57,920
so we keep them protected at all times

254
00:09:01,590 --> 00:08:59,680
yeah we got overhead windows as well

255
00:09:02,870 --> 00:09:01,600
right there at the top but these are the

256
00:09:04,870 --> 00:09:02,880
front looking windows where the pilot

257
00:09:06,630 --> 00:09:04,880
and commander look at that six windows

258
00:09:12,550 --> 00:09:06,640
up front two on top and two in the back

259
00:09:16,949 --> 00:09:14,550
real spaceship i think this is the right

260
00:09:19,110 --> 00:09:16,959
orbiter make sure when you get out there

261
00:09:20,389 --> 00:09:19,120
make sure on launch day too i think make

262
00:09:22,230 --> 00:09:20,399
sure you got the right one make sure it

263
00:09:23,990 --> 00:09:22,240
says discovery on it right because they

264
00:09:25,269 --> 00:09:24,000
all kind of look the same they do you

265
00:09:26,710 --> 00:09:25,279
don't want to get

266
00:09:27,829 --> 00:09:26,720
you don't want to go to the wrong one

267
00:09:28,949 --> 00:09:27,839
don't make sure we go to the correct

268
00:09:30,550 --> 00:09:28,959
because they're putting your stuff

269
00:09:32,389 --> 00:09:30,560
inside of this one right and you want

270
00:09:34,710 --> 00:09:32,399
your stuff i want my shirts you want

271
00:09:35,829 --> 00:09:34,720
your shirts and everything all your food

272
00:09:38,150 --> 00:09:35,839
yeah you don't want to have to wear

273
00:09:39,269 --> 00:09:38,160
who's after you it's ken hammond

274
00:09:40,550 --> 00:09:39,279
we don't want to wear his stuff but

275
00:09:42,150 --> 00:09:40,560
probably you know

276
00:09:44,070 --> 00:09:42,160
it may not be as nice as what you picked

277
00:09:45,670 --> 00:09:44,080
out

278
00:09:47,110 --> 00:09:45,680
you probably spent a few hours inside of

279
00:09:48,949 --> 00:09:47,120
one of those i did mainly looking out

280
00:09:50,389 --> 00:09:48,959
the window i try not to touch anything

281
00:09:52,070 --> 00:09:50,399
when i'm in there but uh but there's

282
00:09:54,470 --> 00:09:52,080
always little pilot stuff but you spent

283
00:09:56,070 --> 00:09:54,480
as much almost as much time outside as

284
00:09:57,590 --> 00:09:56,080
you did inside there's not a lot of time

285
00:09:59,670 --> 00:09:57,600
outside yeah they wanted me out as much

286
00:10:01,269 --> 00:09:59,680
as possible yeah they like yes and i i

287
00:10:06,389 --> 00:10:01,279
liked saying that to play like your

288
00:10:09,829 --> 00:10:08,230
get out of the house you're bothering me

289
00:10:11,590 --> 00:10:09,839
you're driving me crazy get out of the

290
00:10:13,190 --> 00:10:11,600
house

291
00:10:14,470 --> 00:10:13,200
yeah yeah i'm being an italian kid my

292
00:10:16,230 --> 00:10:14,480
mommy should chase me with like a wooden

293
00:10:18,069 --> 00:10:16,240
spoon to go outside

294
00:10:19,990 --> 00:10:18,079
you know yeah right yeah they just you

295
00:10:21,509 --> 00:10:20,000
know there was no wooden spoons so

296
00:10:24,470 --> 00:10:21,519
anyway

297
00:10:26,069 --> 00:10:24,480
on top all right

298
00:10:27,750 --> 00:10:26,079
there's two windows everything's covered

299
00:10:29,910 --> 00:10:27,760
okay it's kind of hard to imagine what

300
00:10:32,069 --> 00:10:29,920
it looks like yeah but uh they'll uh

301
00:10:33,190 --> 00:10:32,079
when they when they get ready to really

302
00:10:34,389 --> 00:10:33,200
need operation when they get ready to

303
00:10:36,389 --> 00:10:34,399
take the ship

304
00:10:38,470 --> 00:10:36,399
out of the orbiter processing facility

305
00:10:39,910 --> 00:10:38,480
where we are now all these platforms

306
00:10:41,990 --> 00:10:39,920
pull back

307
00:10:44,389 --> 00:10:42,000
and they they slide out of the way and

308
00:10:46,630 --> 00:10:44,399
then they close the payload bay doors

309
00:10:48,389 --> 00:10:46,640
and then they uh they pull the orbiter

310
00:10:49,670 --> 00:10:48,399
out right after the doors there it's

311
00:10:51,990 --> 00:10:49,680
gonna go so it's gonna pull right out

312
00:10:52,870 --> 00:10:52,000
this way uh maybe not maybe that's the

313
00:10:53,910 --> 00:10:52,880
other thing the other one the other side

314
00:10:55,430 --> 00:10:53,920
gonna put the other way all right the

315
00:10:57,509 --> 00:10:55,440
other door pack it out we're gonna back

316
00:10:59,269 --> 00:10:57,519
it up back it up put it in reverse they

317
00:11:00,870 --> 00:10:59,279
do they put it but it's a carrier it's

318
00:11:02,230 --> 00:11:00,880
not on the wheels so there's no wheels

319
00:11:04,470 --> 00:11:02,240
they got it on a carrier yeah they got

320
00:11:06,069 --> 00:11:04,480
yeah like real long centipede looking

321
00:11:07,990 --> 00:11:06,079
carrier thing and they put the orbiter

322
00:11:09,350 --> 00:11:08,000
down and they slide it out and then they

323
00:11:10,790 --> 00:11:09,360
take it over the vertical assembly

324
00:11:12,069 --> 00:11:10,800
building where they'll pitch it up into

325
00:11:13,990 --> 00:11:12,079
the vertical

326
00:11:16,069 --> 00:11:14,000
and then i made it to the external tank

327
00:11:17,829 --> 00:11:16,079
in our solid rocket booster

328
00:11:19,910 --> 00:11:17,839
that takes about a week okay and then

329
00:11:21,509 --> 00:11:19,920
they roll that whole that whole assembly

330
00:11:22,630 --> 00:11:21,519
out to the pad all at once in the

331
00:11:24,069 --> 00:11:22,640
vertical

332
00:11:25,430 --> 00:11:24,079
and that is the launch pad that it gets

333
00:11:27,190 --> 00:11:25,440
put on in the vert in the vehicle

334
00:11:28,870 --> 00:11:27,200
assembly building that's this one

335
00:11:30,710 --> 00:11:28,880
platform right and that thing sits on

336
00:11:32,710 --> 00:11:30,720
top of a great big crawler and that

337
00:11:34,230 --> 00:11:32,720
crawler drives it out to the pad at like

338
00:11:35,910 --> 00:11:34,240
about a mile per hour or two miles per

339
00:11:37,910 --> 00:11:35,920
hour really slow yeah it takes forever

340
00:11:39,269 --> 00:11:37,920
it crawls it does kicks

341
00:11:40,550 --> 00:11:39,279
they wake up in the morning and they

342
00:11:41,590 --> 00:11:40,560
start moving and by the time you go to

343
00:11:43,509 --> 00:11:41,600
bed they might have it out there at the

344
00:11:45,030 --> 00:11:43,519
pad okay

345
00:11:46,949 --> 00:11:45,040
yeah

346
00:11:48,470 --> 00:11:46,959
all right

347
00:11:49,350 --> 00:11:48,480
excellent what else you want to show us
