1
00:00:05,590 --> 00:00:03,750
good morning once again from nasa's

2
00:00:07,990 --> 00:00:05,600
johnson space center in houston as we

3
00:00:10,310 --> 00:00:08,000
continue to take a look at the sts-132

4
00:00:12,310 --> 00:00:10,320
mission and atlantis upcoming flight to

5
00:00:13,669 --> 00:00:12,320
the international space station here to

6
00:00:15,110 --> 00:00:13,679
give us more details about all of the

7
00:00:17,189 --> 00:00:15,120
spacewalks that are planned for this

8
00:00:20,230 --> 00:00:17,199
flight is lisa shore she is the lead

9
00:00:23,349 --> 00:00:20,240
spacewalk officer for sts-132 go ahead

10
00:00:26,630 --> 00:00:23,359
lisa thank you josh

11
00:00:29,109 --> 00:00:26,640
for sts-132 our

12
00:00:31,589 --> 00:00:29,119
spacewalk plan is actually pretty simple

13
00:00:33,910 --> 00:00:31,599
they have three full spacewalks

14
00:00:35,990 --> 00:00:33,920
planned with one simple goal

15
00:00:37,910 --> 00:00:36,000
and that is to install the hardware that

16
00:00:39,910 --> 00:00:37,920
we brought up on a carrier in the

17
00:00:40,869 --> 00:00:39,920
shuttle payload bay under the space

18
00:00:42,069 --> 00:00:40,879
station

19
00:00:46,229 --> 00:00:42,079
from here on out i'm going to be

20
00:00:48,549 --> 00:00:46,239
referring to that carrier as the pallet

21
00:00:51,990 --> 00:00:48,559
the pallet has the redundant space to

22
00:00:54,389 --> 00:00:52,000
ground antenna and boom

23
00:00:57,350 --> 00:00:54,399
on one side along with a platform that's

24
00:00:59,110 --> 00:00:57,360
going to install onto the dexter robot

25
00:01:01,830 --> 00:00:59,120
and then on the other side

26
00:01:03,750 --> 00:01:01,840
we have six batteries

27
00:01:05,670 --> 00:01:03,760
that we're going to install into the

28
00:01:08,070 --> 00:01:05,680
space station to replace

29
00:01:09,990 --> 00:01:08,080
the ones on the fortmost solar array

30
00:01:13,109 --> 00:01:10,000
very similar to what took place almost a

31
00:01:15,270 --> 00:01:13,119
year ago on sts-127

32
00:01:17,030 --> 00:01:15,280
the whole crew has going to be involved

33
00:01:19,749 --> 00:01:17,040
in our evas

34
00:01:21,510 --> 00:01:19,759
our commander commander ken ham

35
00:01:24,710 --> 00:01:21,520
will be getting the guys suited up ready

36
00:01:26,950 --> 00:01:24,720
to go out the door for each of the evas

37
00:01:28,149 --> 00:01:26,960
our pilot today antonelli

38
00:01:31,270 --> 00:01:28,159
will be guiding the crew through the

39
00:01:33,270 --> 00:01:31,280
procedures during each of the spacewalks

40
00:01:34,710 --> 00:01:33,280
and then pure sellers himself a veteran

41
00:01:36,710 --> 00:01:34,720
spacewalker

42
00:01:37,830 --> 00:01:36,720
will be our lead space station arm

43
00:01:39,510 --> 00:01:37,840
operator

44
00:01:42,630 --> 00:01:39,520
in the arm is very involved in the

45
00:01:44,630 --> 00:01:42,640
operations of each of these evas

46
00:01:45,590 --> 00:01:44,640
steve bowen mike good and garrett

47
00:01:47,749 --> 00:01:45,600
riesman

48
00:01:50,069 --> 00:01:47,759
again all veteran spacewalkers

49
00:01:51,429 --> 00:01:50,079
will be each be performing two of our

50
00:01:53,190 --> 00:01:51,439
evas

51
00:01:55,830 --> 00:01:53,200
and they'll each take the lead for one

52
00:01:58,310 --> 00:01:55,840
of those evas

53
00:01:59,910 --> 00:01:58,320
as you watch the video you'll see

54
00:02:01,350 --> 00:01:59,920
steve will be wearing the suit with the

55
00:02:03,030 --> 00:02:01,360
red stripe

56
00:02:04,709 --> 00:02:03,040
mike will always wear the suit with the

57
00:02:07,109 --> 00:02:04,719
barber pole stripes

58
00:02:09,910 --> 00:02:07,119
and garrett will wear the unmarked or

59
00:02:13,510 --> 00:02:11,589
for eva one

60
00:02:15,589 --> 00:02:13,520
garrett riesman and steve bowen will be

61
00:02:17,589 --> 00:02:15,599
going out the door garrett will take the

62
00:02:19,430 --> 00:02:17,599
lead on this eva

63
00:02:22,229 --> 00:02:19,440
prior to egress

64
00:02:23,990 --> 00:02:22,239
for this eva the station arm will have

65
00:02:26,550 --> 00:02:24,000
pulled the pallet out of the shuttle

66
00:02:27,990 --> 00:02:26,560
payload bay and installed it

67
00:02:29,430 --> 00:02:28,000
onto the port side of the mobile

68
00:02:31,750 --> 00:02:29,440
transporter

69
00:02:36,949 --> 00:02:31,760
on the truss and we can go ahead and

70
00:02:41,270 --> 00:02:39,030
here you can see is we're going to fly

71
00:02:43,750 --> 00:02:41,280
into our first work site you can see the

72
00:02:45,830 --> 00:02:43,760
mobile transporter

73
00:02:48,550 --> 00:02:45,840
just to the port side of center on the

74
00:02:50,229 --> 00:02:48,560
space station we have the dexter

75
00:02:52,390 --> 00:02:50,239
robot installed on the left side and the

76
00:02:53,750 --> 00:02:52,400
pallet over on the right

77
00:02:55,030 --> 00:02:53,760
the first task that the crew will

78
00:02:56,949 --> 00:02:55,040
perform

79
00:02:58,390 --> 00:02:56,959
will be to

80
00:03:00,229 --> 00:02:58,400
pick up a couple of portable foot

81
00:03:02,550 --> 00:03:00,239
restraints that were left there

82
00:03:04,630 --> 00:03:02,560
for us by the previous mission

83
00:03:06,390 --> 00:03:04,640
and then they will translate those over

84
00:03:08,149 --> 00:03:06,400
to the palette

85
00:03:10,949 --> 00:03:08,159
you can see the palette there

86
00:03:12,390 --> 00:03:10,959
uh that's the six batteries on the one

87
00:03:13,830 --> 00:03:12,400
side that are on the side of the palette

88
00:03:15,350 --> 00:03:13,840
away from the truss

89
00:03:21,750 --> 00:03:15,360
and as we come around there you can see

90
00:03:26,070 --> 00:03:23,750
and then the

91
00:03:29,350 --> 00:03:26,080
dexter robot platform

92
00:03:32,390 --> 00:03:29,360
also known as the eotp the enhanced

93
00:03:34,070 --> 00:03:32,400
oru temporary platform

94
00:03:36,229 --> 00:03:34,080
is there next to the dish and then the

95
00:03:38,149 --> 00:03:36,239
boom is below that

96
00:03:39,430 --> 00:03:38,159
here you can see steve installing his

97
00:03:41,350 --> 00:03:39,440
foot restraint

98
00:03:43,589 --> 00:03:41,360
onto the pallet he'll use that to

99
00:03:44,789 --> 00:03:43,599
stabilize himself as they pull the boom

100
00:03:46,470 --> 00:03:44,799
off

101
00:03:47,910 --> 00:03:46,480
and then garrett is going to install his

102
00:03:49,509 --> 00:03:47,920
foot restraint

103
00:03:52,070 --> 00:03:49,519
onto the arm

104
00:03:53,830 --> 00:03:52,080
and here you can see

105
00:03:56,470 --> 00:03:53,840
steve pulling his foot restraint off the

106
00:03:58,070 --> 00:03:56,480
cedar cart that we took out there

107
00:03:59,110 --> 00:03:58,080
once garrett has the foot restraint on

108
00:04:01,589 --> 00:03:59,120
the arm

109
00:04:03,830 --> 00:04:01,599
he's going to translate over

110
00:04:05,750 --> 00:04:03,840
and assist steve with releasing the boom

111
00:04:08,149 --> 00:04:05,760
from the palette

112
00:04:10,229 --> 00:04:08,159
once the boom has been released

113
00:04:12,830 --> 00:04:10,239
steve will continue to stabilize it

114
00:04:15,589 --> 00:04:12,840
garrett will go ahead ingress the

115
00:04:16,310 --> 00:04:15,599
arm steve will rotate

116
00:04:21,830 --> 00:04:16,320
the

117
00:04:24,390 --> 00:04:21,840
dexter palette

118
00:04:26,550 --> 00:04:24,400
hand the boom over to garrett

119
00:04:29,189 --> 00:04:26,560
and then garrett will carefully

120
00:04:30,790 --> 00:04:29,199
maneuver the boom clear of the pallet

121
00:04:32,710 --> 00:04:30,800
once he's clear of the pallet he's going

122
00:04:35,590 --> 00:04:32,720
to go ahead and reposition the boom for

123
00:04:37,430 --> 00:04:35,600
installation at the z1 work site

124
00:04:39,350 --> 00:04:37,440
steve will then pick up his

125
00:04:41,350 --> 00:04:39,360
foot restraint

126
00:04:43,510 --> 00:04:41,360
translate back over to the

127
00:04:46,150 --> 00:04:43,520
port cedar cart which will drop it off

128
00:04:47,510 --> 00:04:46,160
we'll use that later when we install the

129
00:04:49,670 --> 00:04:47,520
pallet onto the

130
00:04:51,270 --> 00:04:49,680
dexter

131
00:04:52,870 --> 00:04:51,280
and then as we fly over here you can see

132
00:04:53,909 --> 00:04:52,880
that one big dish antenna is the

133
00:04:55,670 --> 00:04:53,919
existing

134
00:04:57,030 --> 00:04:55,680
space to ground antenna on the station

135
00:04:58,950 --> 00:04:57,040
and we are going to install the

136
00:05:00,870 --> 00:04:58,960
redundant system

137
00:05:02,629 --> 00:05:00,880
just starboard of it

138
00:05:04,070 --> 00:05:02,639
whereas that first antenna slopes off to

139
00:05:06,629 --> 00:05:04,080
the side ours

140
00:05:08,390 --> 00:05:06,639
will become a new 14 foot tall straight

141
00:05:09,590 --> 00:05:08,400
up structure right

142
00:05:12,390 --> 00:05:09,600
next to it in the center of the space

143
00:05:15,510 --> 00:05:13,830
so garrett you'll see here is about to

144
00:05:19,350 --> 00:05:15,520
do these big uh we'll call windshield

145
00:05:20,469 --> 00:05:19,360
wiper maneuvers over to the z1

146
00:05:22,870 --> 00:05:20,479
once

147
00:05:24,310 --> 00:05:22,880
he's over at the work site

148
00:05:26,150 --> 00:05:24,320
steve will have translated over there

149
00:05:28,550 --> 00:05:26,160
they'll work together

150
00:05:31,350 --> 00:05:28,560
to position the boom you can see here

151
00:05:33,749 --> 00:05:31,360
working in the neutral buoyancy lab

152
00:05:35,430 --> 00:05:33,759
to practice that steve will go ahead and

153
00:05:38,230 --> 00:05:35,440
drive the bolts there's two bolts that

154
00:05:40,870 --> 00:05:38,240
hold the boom onto the z1 and then

155
00:05:42,469 --> 00:05:40,880
garrett will go ahead and fly back

156
00:05:44,070 --> 00:05:42,479
to pick up the dish

157
00:05:45,189 --> 00:05:44,080
while he's gone steve is going to

158
00:05:47,670 --> 00:05:45,199
connect a couple of electrical

159
00:05:50,070 --> 00:05:47,680
connectors to an interface panel

160
00:05:51,670 --> 00:05:50,080
he'll then grab four other electrical

161
00:05:52,629 --> 00:05:51,680
connectors that were pre-positioned for

162
00:05:56,070 --> 00:05:52,639
us

163
00:05:58,070 --> 00:05:56,080
to the boom

164
00:06:00,550 --> 00:05:58,080
and once that is complete if he still

165
00:06:02,550 --> 00:06:00,560
has time he'll translate up the boom

166
00:06:04,390 --> 00:06:02,560
and remove the thermal cover from the

167
00:06:16,629 --> 00:06:04,400
transmit receive box

168
00:06:23,510 --> 00:06:18,870
okay in the meantime we have garrett as

169
00:06:27,590 --> 00:06:25,590
he'll work with piers

170
00:06:29,430 --> 00:06:27,600
to guide himself in there's two bolts

171
00:06:31,990 --> 00:06:29,440
that hold that dish into its support

172
00:06:35,029 --> 00:06:32,000
equipment on the pallet

173
00:06:36,710 --> 00:06:35,039
he'll drive each of those bolts and then

174
00:06:38,790 --> 00:06:36,720
very carefully

175
00:06:41,990 --> 00:06:38,800
start to lift the dish

176
00:06:43,189 --> 00:06:42,000
out of that support equipment

177
00:06:46,070 --> 00:06:43,199
a little bit of a

178
00:06:49,029 --> 00:06:46,080
tight space here so

179
00:06:50,309 --> 00:06:49,039
they'll work together just get clear of

180
00:06:51,670 --> 00:06:50,319
the pallet

181
00:06:52,790 --> 00:06:51,680
then do a little maneuver out from

182
00:06:54,870 --> 00:06:52,800
underneath the

183
00:06:56,550 --> 00:06:54,880
boom of the arm and then again the big

184
00:06:59,029 --> 00:06:56,560
windshield wiper maneuver

185
00:07:00,710 --> 00:06:59,039
back over to the z1

186
00:07:02,070 --> 00:07:00,720
when garrett arrives at the z1 steve

187
00:07:03,670 --> 00:07:02,080
should be waiting for him at the top of

188
00:07:06,309 --> 00:07:03,680
the boom

189
00:07:08,710 --> 00:07:06,319
they're going to again work together to

190
00:07:11,110 --> 00:07:08,720
very gently bring those two interfaces

191
00:07:12,950 --> 00:07:11,120
together there's some very sensitive

192
00:07:15,029 --> 00:07:12,960
areas up the top there where the actual

193
00:07:16,390 --> 00:07:15,039
signal passes through from the antenna

194
00:07:17,909 --> 00:07:16,400
down into the

195
00:07:19,430 --> 00:07:17,919
boom box

196
00:07:20,390 --> 00:07:19,440
that we call it

197
00:07:22,710 --> 00:07:20,400
and

198
00:07:27,510 --> 00:07:22,720
locate go ahead work together drive four

199
00:07:31,029 --> 00:07:28,550
once the

200
00:07:32,230 --> 00:07:31,039
dish is bolted on there's two electrical

201
00:07:34,550 --> 00:07:32,240
connectors

202
00:07:36,710 --> 00:07:34,560
that need to get

203
00:07:38,150 --> 00:07:36,720
connected

204
00:07:40,550 --> 00:07:38,160
and then

205
00:07:42,070 --> 00:07:40,560
just before garrett leaves they'll go

206
00:07:43,670 --> 00:07:42,080
ahead and work together to install a

207
00:07:48,629 --> 00:07:43,680
thermal shield

208
00:07:51,909 --> 00:07:50,070
you can see that's what white section

209
00:07:54,469 --> 00:07:51,919
that just went on there as soon as that

210
00:07:55,589 --> 00:07:54,479
is complete we'll send garrett back over

211
00:07:57,589 --> 00:07:55,599
to the pallet

212
00:07:58,710 --> 00:07:57,599
to start the retrieval of the dexter

213
00:08:00,469 --> 00:07:58,720
platform

214
00:08:02,550 --> 00:08:00,479
steve will then

215
00:08:04,230 --> 00:08:02,560
proceed to remove two launch locks

216
00:08:05,990 --> 00:08:04,240
gimbal locks we call them

217
00:08:07,830 --> 00:08:06,000
on the antenna those immobilize the

218
00:08:11,430 --> 00:08:07,840
antenna during its

219
00:08:14,629 --> 00:08:12,710
and once he is finished with those

220
00:08:16,710 --> 00:08:14,639
gimbal locks he'll go ahead

221
00:08:18,390 --> 00:08:16,720
clean up that z1 work site

222
00:08:19,909 --> 00:08:18,400
drop a bag off at the airlock and then

223
00:08:21,189 --> 00:08:19,919
meet garrett

224
00:08:23,830 --> 00:08:21,199
back over at the dexter for the

225
00:08:25,670 --> 00:08:23,840
installation of the platform

226
00:08:27,830 --> 00:08:25,680
here you can see garrett once he gets

227
00:08:29,430 --> 00:08:27,840
back over to the pallet

228
00:08:33,430 --> 00:08:29,440
he's driving

229
00:08:38,310 --> 00:08:33,440
one of the four bolts here that hold the

230
00:08:44,230 --> 00:08:41,269
and once that platform is released

231
00:08:45,670 --> 00:08:44,240
he'll again go ahead and

232
00:08:47,590 --> 00:08:45,680
pull that away from the pallet and then

233
00:08:49,509 --> 00:08:47,600
again another big sweeping maneuver just

234
00:08:50,949 --> 00:08:49,519
from one side of the mobile transporter

235
00:08:52,550 --> 00:08:50,959
over to the other side

236
00:08:54,070 --> 00:08:52,560
this is kind of like going around the

237
00:08:57,350 --> 00:08:54,080
block to get your next door neighbor's

238
00:09:00,710 --> 00:08:59,350
so then once garrett's over there with

239
00:09:02,630 --> 00:09:00,720
the pallet

240
00:09:04,870 --> 00:09:02,640
he and steve will work together

241
00:09:07,430 --> 00:09:04,880
to insert four fasteners

242
00:09:09,910 --> 00:09:07,440
that hold the pallet onto the dexter

243
00:09:13,350 --> 00:09:09,920
there's also a hinge pin this platform

244
00:09:18,550 --> 00:09:15,350
during future operations for

245
00:09:21,030 --> 00:09:18,560
into what we call a maintenance position

246
00:09:23,430 --> 00:09:21,040
once garrett and steve are complete with

247
00:09:25,030 --> 00:09:23,440
the fasteners garrett will egress the

248
00:09:27,030 --> 00:09:25,040
arm and then send that away to a

249
00:09:29,670 --> 00:09:27,040
position that he can later take the foot

250
00:09:31,190 --> 00:09:29,680
restraint off of it and clean it up

251
00:09:33,990 --> 00:09:31,200
and if we have time at this point

252
00:09:34,710 --> 00:09:34,000
garrett's going to head and install

253
00:10:08,630 --> 00:09:34,720
a

254
00:10:10,470 --> 00:10:08,640
is either for the dexter itself or for

255
00:10:11,590 --> 00:10:10,480
an ev crew to actually rotate that

256
00:10:13,509 --> 00:10:11,600
pallet

257
00:10:15,509 --> 00:10:13,519
180 degrees in either direction

258
00:10:16,870 --> 00:10:15,519
depending on well

259
00:10:19,910 --> 00:10:16,880
what piece of equipment you would like

260
00:10:22,470 --> 00:10:19,920
to temporarily stow there

261
00:10:24,470 --> 00:10:22,480
while all that is taking place

262
00:10:26,150 --> 00:10:24,480
steve will have translated back over to

263
00:10:27,590 --> 00:10:26,160
the pallet to perform some get-ahead

264
00:10:29,990 --> 00:10:27,600
tasks for us

265
00:10:32,790 --> 00:10:30,000
we're going to have him break torque

266
00:10:35,110 --> 00:10:32,800
on the batteries that are on the pallet

267
00:10:35,829 --> 00:10:35,120
so for each of the six batteries he'll

268
00:10:37,269 --> 00:10:35,839
be

269
00:10:38,949 --> 00:10:37,279
opening up the

270
00:10:42,150 --> 00:10:38,959
thermal cover

271
00:10:44,150 --> 00:10:42,160
and then using a ratchet wrench

272
00:10:46,389 --> 00:10:44,160
to release the torque just by putting

273
00:10:48,069 --> 00:10:46,399
one turn on each of those bolts and then

274
00:10:50,069 --> 00:10:48,079
he'll

275
00:10:53,590 --> 00:10:50,079
torque it back down by hand and that's

276
00:10:55,670 --> 00:10:53,600
so that we can easily use our power tool

277
00:10:57,350 --> 00:10:55,680
during evas two and three to remove the

278
00:10:59,110 --> 00:10:57,360
batteries

279
00:11:02,790 --> 00:10:59,120
from the pallet and you can see here

280
00:11:04,790 --> 00:11:02,800
steve practicing that again in the pool

281
00:11:06,150 --> 00:11:04,800
once he's broken torque on

282
00:11:07,990 --> 00:11:06,160
as many of the batteries we can get

283
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:08,000
through we'd like to get through all six

284
00:11:11,269 --> 00:11:10,170
but it's not required he'll go ahead and

285
00:11:12,710 --> 00:11:11,279
[Music]

286
00:11:15,110 --> 00:11:12,720
close the thermal

287
00:11:17,670 --> 00:11:15,120
cover back up

288
00:11:20,470 --> 00:11:17,680
and that will be the completion of eva

289
00:11:32,710 --> 00:11:20,480
one we'll bring our bags back inside and

290
00:11:35,670 --> 00:11:34,230
okay

291
00:11:39,110 --> 00:11:35,680
for eva

292
00:11:40,630 --> 00:11:39,120
two we'll have steve bowen and mike good

293
00:11:43,670 --> 00:11:40,640
going out the door

294
00:11:46,230 --> 00:11:43,680
steve will take the lead on this eva

295
00:11:48,230 --> 00:11:46,240
prior to egress on this eva the mobile

296
00:11:50,310 --> 00:11:48,240
transporter will move down to its port

297
00:11:52,069 --> 00:11:50,320
most location

298
00:11:54,870 --> 00:11:52,079
on the trust just prior to the solar

299
00:11:57,350 --> 00:11:54,880
array rotary joint

300
00:11:59,509 --> 00:11:57,360
garrett in piers will then work together

301
00:12:00,870 --> 00:11:59,519
to pull the pallet

302
00:12:02,550 --> 00:12:00,880
off of the

303
00:12:04,870 --> 00:12:02,560
mobile transporter

304
00:12:06,310 --> 00:12:04,880
and extend it all the way out to the p6

305
00:12:08,310 --> 00:12:06,320
segment

306
00:12:14,870 --> 00:12:08,320
for the start of the eva

307
00:12:19,110 --> 00:12:16,710
so here you see we're coming into our

308
00:12:20,310 --> 00:12:19,120
work site at the far port end of the

309
00:12:22,550 --> 00:12:20,320
truss

310
00:12:25,030 --> 00:12:22,560
our first task on this eva is going to

311
00:12:27,269 --> 00:12:25,040
be to move a couple of portable foot

312
00:12:29,750 --> 00:12:27,279
restraints and some gap spanner chains

313
00:12:32,310 --> 00:12:29,760
that have been out there since sts-127

314
00:12:34,389 --> 00:12:32,320
back last july

315
00:12:36,310 --> 00:12:34,399
when they did the very similar task of

316
00:12:39,750 --> 00:12:36,320
rnr

317
00:12:41,590 --> 00:12:39,760
those batteries so steve bowen will grab

318
00:12:43,990 --> 00:12:41,600
each of those foot restraints

319
00:12:45,110 --> 00:12:44,000
bring them over to the opposite side of

320
00:12:47,509 --> 00:12:45,120
the truss

321
00:12:49,750 --> 00:12:47,519
where we'll be doing our battery

322
00:12:50,870 --> 00:12:49,760
remove and replace

323
00:12:52,470 --> 00:12:50,880
and

324
00:12:53,990 --> 00:12:52,480
grab those foot restraints grab that gap

325
00:12:55,110 --> 00:12:54,000
spanner chain install it on the other

326
00:12:57,509 --> 00:12:55,120
side

327
00:13:00,629 --> 00:12:57,519
and while steve is doing that

328
00:13:03,750 --> 00:13:00,639
mike will go around and break torque

329
00:13:05,110 --> 00:13:03,760
on each of the six truss batteries again

330
00:13:07,430 --> 00:13:05,120
with a ratchet wrench similar to what

331
00:13:12,310 --> 00:13:07,440
steve did on the pallet for

332
00:13:15,750 --> 00:13:13,670
once they're complete with all those

333
00:13:17,190 --> 00:13:15,760
prep activities

334
00:13:20,150 --> 00:13:17,200
the first thing we need to do this whole

335
00:13:21,590 --> 00:13:20,160
battery rnr is like a shell game or one

336
00:13:22,949 --> 00:13:21,600
of those puzzles where you move the

337
00:13:25,269 --> 00:13:22,959
numbers around the first thing you need

338
00:13:27,670 --> 00:13:25,279
to do is create an open spot

339
00:13:30,470 --> 00:13:27,680
to start your shuffle so we'll install

340
00:13:32,870 --> 00:13:30,480
some handling aids onto the battery

341
00:13:36,150 --> 00:13:32,880
first a battery that we intend to remove

342
00:13:38,710 --> 00:13:36,160
and then we're also going to install a

343
00:13:40,710 --> 00:13:38,720
we call a ball stack it's a tether metal

344
00:13:44,310 --> 00:13:40,720
tether that can be rigidized to

345
00:13:48,629 --> 00:13:46,790
during the evas

346
00:13:52,470 --> 00:13:48,639
so there you see

347
00:13:59,590 --> 00:13:52,480
mike putting that ball stack in place

348
00:14:05,590 --> 00:14:03,350
mike will go ahead and ingress the

349
00:14:07,269 --> 00:14:05,600
foot restraint we call we call mike the

350
00:14:09,750 --> 00:14:07,279
trust guy and steve will be the pallet

351
00:14:11,110 --> 00:14:09,760
guy because mike takes all the batteries

352
00:14:12,870 --> 00:14:11,120
out of the truss and replaces them and

353
00:14:15,030 --> 00:14:12,880
steve will take the batteries out of the

354
00:14:16,389 --> 00:14:15,040
pallet and replace them

355
00:14:17,350 --> 00:14:16,399
so here you can see they're working

356
00:14:18,629 --> 00:14:17,360
together

357
00:14:19,829 --> 00:14:18,639
mike's pulled the battery out of the

358
00:14:21,750 --> 00:14:19,839
truss

359
00:14:24,470 --> 00:14:21,760
and then they pass it down to the

360
00:14:27,110 --> 00:14:24,480
tempstow location

361
00:14:28,710 --> 00:14:27,120
we'll install it onto that ball stack

362
00:14:30,470 --> 00:14:28,720
and then

363
00:14:31,829 --> 00:14:30,480
tuck it under the truss there to keep it

364
00:14:33,670 --> 00:14:31,839
out of the way during the robotics

365
00:14:35,430 --> 00:14:33,680
operations

366
00:14:37,269 --> 00:14:35,440
and then mike will reposition his foot

367
00:14:39,110 --> 00:14:37,279
restraint for the installation of the

368
00:14:40,550 --> 00:14:39,120
battery

369
00:14:43,590 --> 00:14:40,560
at this point

370
00:14:44,710 --> 00:14:43,600
steve will guide the pallet that appears

371
00:14:46,310 --> 00:14:44,720
as

372
00:14:47,910 --> 00:14:46,320
operating the arm there

373
00:14:49,990 --> 00:14:47,920
guide the pallet in for the removal of

374
00:14:51,590 --> 00:14:50,000
the first battery

375
00:14:53,189 --> 00:14:51,600
you know better and the pallet gets

376
00:14:54,550 --> 00:14:53,199
close enough it'll go ahead and open the

377
00:14:58,150 --> 00:14:54,560
thermal clever

378
00:14:59,750 --> 00:14:58,160
install a couple more handling aids pull

379
00:15:01,670 --> 00:14:59,760
that battery out

380
00:15:04,230 --> 00:15:01,680
here you can see them practicing

381
00:15:05,430 --> 00:15:04,240
that again in the pool

382
00:15:06,870 --> 00:15:05,440
training for this was challenging

383
00:15:08,150 --> 00:15:06,880
because since we couldn't put the pallet

384
00:15:10,790 --> 00:15:08,160
on the arm in the pool we had to

385
00:15:15,030 --> 00:15:10,800
actually put the crew member on the arm

386
00:15:17,670 --> 00:15:16,629
so there's steve pulling the battery out

387
00:15:19,910 --> 00:15:17,680
of the

388
00:15:21,670 --> 00:15:19,920
pallet as he'll do on

389
00:15:24,230 --> 00:15:21,680
eva2

390
00:15:25,590 --> 00:15:24,240
once the battery has been removed

391
00:15:27,189 --> 00:15:25,600
they'll work together to what we call

392
00:15:29,509 --> 00:15:27,199
shepherd the battery down to its install

393
00:15:30,870 --> 00:15:29,519
location that's just basically a hand

394
00:15:32,470 --> 00:15:30,880
handoff

395
00:15:35,269 --> 00:15:32,480
from one crew member to the next kind of

396
00:15:37,110 --> 00:15:35,279
inchworm it down the truss

397
00:15:40,230 --> 00:15:37,120
and then

398
00:15:41,829 --> 00:15:40,240
install it back into the truss these

399
00:15:44,150 --> 00:15:41,839
batteries are about three and a half

400
00:15:47,189 --> 00:15:44,160
feet by three and a half feet each

401
00:15:49,430 --> 00:15:47,199
uh weigh about 365 pounds

402
00:15:51,910 --> 00:15:49,440
so you can imagine uh there when steve

403
00:15:53,430 --> 00:15:51,920
is holding the battery now installing it

404
00:15:55,189 --> 00:15:53,440
back into the pallet you can't see a

405
00:15:57,110 --> 00:15:55,199
whole lot more than battery

406
00:15:59,670 --> 00:15:57,120
so it's really important for

407
00:16:02,470 --> 00:15:59,680
our other crew member mike in this case

408
00:16:07,990 --> 00:16:05,430
the battery into the slot without

409
00:16:09,990 --> 00:16:08,000
hitting any of the other equipment

410
00:16:11,670 --> 00:16:10,000
in between the first and second battery

411
00:16:13,910 --> 00:16:11,680
on the pallet there we need to

412
00:16:15,509 --> 00:16:13,920
reposition our foot restraint and then

413
00:16:17,430 --> 00:16:15,519
reposition the pallet

414
00:16:19,030 --> 00:16:17,440
that's to keep that bottom keel pin on

415
00:16:21,350 --> 00:16:19,040
the pallet from

416
00:16:22,949 --> 00:16:21,360
getting too close to the truss

417
00:16:25,269 --> 00:16:22,959
once that's complete we go ahead and

418
00:16:26,629 --> 00:16:25,279
guide the pallet back in again remove

419
00:16:28,150 --> 00:16:26,639
the battery

420
00:16:31,110 --> 00:16:28,160
and then once more

421
00:16:33,509 --> 00:16:31,120
shepard it over to its install location

422
00:16:35,590 --> 00:16:33,519
on the truss

423
00:16:37,590 --> 00:16:35,600
and then one more time here

424
00:16:39,749 --> 00:16:37,600
we'll move our foot restraint

425
00:16:41,910 --> 00:16:39,759
remove the third battery

426
00:16:44,069 --> 00:16:41,920
from the truss shepherd it back over to

427
00:16:45,189 --> 00:16:44,079
the pallet

428
00:16:46,790 --> 00:16:45,199
and then

429
00:16:49,189 --> 00:16:46,800
mike or i'm sorry

430
00:16:55,350 --> 00:16:49,199
steve will install that battery

431
00:16:59,030 --> 00:16:56,949
okay one more time we'll guide the

432
00:17:01,829 --> 00:16:59,040
pallet

433
00:17:03,590 --> 00:17:01,839
up to the next battery

434
00:17:05,510 --> 00:17:03,600
so here you can see the thermal comer

435
00:17:07,669 --> 00:17:05,520
closing on the second battery guide the

436
00:17:10,069 --> 00:17:07,679
pallet down

437
00:17:11,750 --> 00:17:10,079
install the handling aids and then again

438
00:17:14,309 --> 00:17:11,760
remove the battery

439
00:17:16,470 --> 00:17:14,319
from the pallet

440
00:17:18,230 --> 00:17:16,480
and shepard it back over to the truss to

441
00:17:19,829 --> 00:17:18,240
install it so at this point we have

442
00:17:21,750 --> 00:17:19,839
three new batteries installed in the

443
00:17:24,230 --> 00:17:21,760
truss and two of the old batteries put

444
00:17:25,829 --> 00:17:24,240
back on the pallet for return to earth

445
00:17:28,390 --> 00:17:25,839
at the very end there the crew will

446
00:17:29,190 --> 00:17:28,400
retrieve that temp stowed battery

447
00:17:31,029 --> 00:17:29,200
and

448
00:17:33,669 --> 00:17:31,039
put it back into the pallet close up the

449
00:17:35,350 --> 00:17:33,679
mli

450
00:17:38,470 --> 00:17:35,360
and the arm will then maneuver away to a

451
00:17:42,950 --> 00:17:39,909
where it will back out of the way so we

452
00:17:45,750 --> 00:17:42,960
continue to rotate the solar arrays

453
00:17:47,110 --> 00:17:45,760
in between evas 2 and 3.

454
00:17:48,630 --> 00:17:47,120
when that's complete the crew is going

455
00:17:50,630 --> 00:17:48,640
to go ahead and

456
00:17:54,070 --> 00:17:50,640
do a couple of get-aheads for the next

457
00:17:56,390 --> 00:17:54,080
dva they'll reposition that ball stack

458
00:17:59,190 --> 00:17:56,400
at a different temp stow location

459
00:18:01,270 --> 00:17:59,200
they'll take the foot restraint move it

460
00:18:01,990 --> 00:18:01,280
up to the location that garrett will use

461
00:18:03,350 --> 00:18:02,000
it

462
00:18:05,029 --> 00:18:03,360
to remove the first battery from the

463
00:18:06,950 --> 00:18:05,039
truss on eba 3

464
00:18:08,789 --> 00:18:06,960
and then we have a couple of tool bags

465
00:18:10,230 --> 00:18:08,799
that we took out

466
00:18:11,270 --> 00:18:10,240
on this eva and we're actually going to

467
00:18:13,430 --> 00:18:11,280
leave those

468
00:18:14,870 --> 00:18:13,440
stowed outside in between so they'll

469
00:18:16,390 --> 00:18:14,880
stow those

470
00:18:23,029 --> 00:18:16,400
on the truss also

471
00:18:27,909 --> 00:18:26,230
okay for the third eva

472
00:18:29,669 --> 00:18:27,919
goal is to

473
00:18:32,070 --> 00:18:29,679
finish the r r of the remaining

474
00:18:34,230 --> 00:18:32,080
batteries on the pallet

475
00:18:36,390 --> 00:18:34,240
mike good and garrett riesman will be

476
00:18:37,909 --> 00:18:36,400
going out for this

477
00:18:40,390 --> 00:18:37,919
third eva

478
00:18:42,230 --> 00:18:40,400
with mike taking the lead

479
00:18:44,549 --> 00:18:42,240
we're going to start this eva in the

480
00:18:46,310 --> 00:18:44,559
same arm and pallet configuration that

481
00:18:52,310 --> 00:18:46,320
we did on the last eva we'll go ahead

482
00:18:56,630 --> 00:18:54,470
so again coming into the

483
00:18:58,470 --> 00:18:56,640
same work site

484
00:19:01,190 --> 00:18:58,480
not as much preparation as required on

485
00:19:03,270 --> 00:19:01,200
eba2 since everything's

486
00:19:06,070 --> 00:19:03,280
set up for us

487
00:19:07,990 --> 00:19:06,080
so here you can see

488
00:19:09,510 --> 00:19:08,000
garrett is hanging upside down there

489
00:19:11,190 --> 00:19:09,520
from his foot restraint in what we call

490
00:19:13,590 --> 00:19:11,200
the batman position to remove that first

491
00:19:15,750 --> 00:19:13,600
battery from the truss he'll hand it

492
00:19:18,070 --> 00:19:15,760
down the mic they temp stow it

493
00:19:20,710 --> 00:19:18,080
down there at the bottom

494
00:19:23,350 --> 00:19:20,720
and then they will translate

495
00:19:24,390 --> 00:19:23,360
over to the pallet

496
00:19:26,150 --> 00:19:24,400
again

497
00:19:28,310 --> 00:19:26,160
guide it in

498
00:19:29,750 --> 00:19:28,320
and start the

499
00:19:31,110 --> 00:19:29,760
removal process

500
00:19:33,669 --> 00:19:31,120
over again

501
00:19:37,350 --> 00:19:33,679
so here we have like this time is our

502
00:19:37,360 --> 00:19:42,390
pulling the battery out of the pallet

503
00:19:46,230 --> 00:19:44,710
and then the crew will again shepherd it

504
00:19:48,710 --> 00:19:46,240
down

505
00:19:53,990 --> 00:19:48,720
to the install location

506
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,909
reposition the foot restraint

507
00:20:01,510 --> 00:19:58,950
and then

508
00:20:03,830 --> 00:20:01,520
garrett will ingress the foot restraint

509
00:20:05,110 --> 00:20:03,840
remove the fifth battery from the truss

510
00:20:07,830 --> 00:20:05,120
again shepherd it back over to the

511
00:20:09,909 --> 00:20:07,840
pallet

512
00:20:12,070 --> 00:20:09,919
install it for the return to earth

513
00:20:13,909 --> 00:20:12,080
and here you can see garrett

514
00:20:15,029 --> 00:20:13,919
practicing at the

515
00:20:21,990 --> 00:20:15,039
in the pool

516
00:20:25,990 --> 00:20:24,149
once that battery is complete again

517
00:20:27,990 --> 00:20:26,000
guide the pallet

518
00:20:29,510 --> 00:20:28,000
down to the

519
00:20:39,669 --> 00:20:29,520
position to remove the fifth battery

520
00:20:45,830 --> 00:20:41,270
i'll go ahead and

521
00:20:50,630 --> 00:20:47,909
as you can see it's very slow and

522
00:20:52,470 --> 00:20:50,640
meticulous process

523
00:20:54,149 --> 00:20:52,480
the back side of those batteries has

524
00:20:55,750 --> 00:20:54,159
cooling fins on it so the crew has to be

525
00:20:58,390 --> 00:20:55,760
very careful

526
00:21:03,110 --> 00:20:58,400
not to nick or ding

527
00:21:08,070 --> 00:21:05,350
again pallet backs away

528
00:21:10,230 --> 00:21:08,080
crew will shepherd the battery

529
00:21:12,549 --> 00:21:10,240
down to the install location here you

530
00:21:14,549 --> 00:21:12,559
can see garrett installing the battery

531
00:21:16,950 --> 00:21:14,559
into the truss and then mike again

532
00:21:18,630 --> 00:21:16,960
helping him guide it in there

533
00:21:20,630 --> 00:21:18,640
so it doesn't

534
00:21:22,470 --> 00:21:20,640
hit any of the side walls of the truss

535
00:21:27,270 --> 00:21:22,480
there like i said garrett can't see much

536
00:21:31,510 --> 00:21:28,630
once we're done with the fifth battery

537
00:21:33,350 --> 00:21:31,520
we'll rotate our foot restraint over

538
00:21:36,789 --> 00:21:33,360
to a position that garrett can pull the

539
00:21:43,270 --> 00:21:38,149
again shepherd that back up to the

540
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,630
install it

541
00:21:51,669 --> 00:21:48,470
remove the handling aids

542
00:21:51,679 --> 00:21:55,430
and then again guide the pallet

543
00:22:01,510 --> 00:21:57,750
up to the position that he can pull the

544
00:22:14,870 --> 00:22:03,350
off the pallet for installation into the

545
00:22:18,149 --> 00:22:16,710
we expect these batteries

546
00:22:20,310 --> 00:22:18,159
to take somewhere in the neighborhood of

547
00:22:23,750 --> 00:22:20,320
45 to an hour

548
00:22:26,230 --> 00:22:23,760
for each pair of one from each

549
00:22:27,750 --> 00:22:26,240
one from the pallet one from the truss

550
00:22:29,430 --> 00:22:27,760
again when that six battery is out of

551
00:22:30,710 --> 00:22:29,440
the pallet

552
00:22:31,909 --> 00:22:30,720
garrett will go ahead and install that

553
00:22:33,990 --> 00:22:31,919
into the truss

554
00:22:35,510 --> 00:22:34,000
the crew will then retrieve the temp

555
00:22:38,470 --> 00:22:35,520
stowed battery

556
00:22:41,350 --> 00:22:38,480
shepard that back over to the pallet

557
00:22:43,909 --> 00:22:41,360
install it remove the handling aids for

558
00:22:45,430 --> 00:22:43,919
the final time close up the

559
00:22:47,669 --> 00:22:45,440
thermal cover

560
00:22:49,909 --> 00:22:47,679
and then they'll make sure that

561
00:22:51,350 --> 00:22:49,919
everything's tucked away

562
00:22:52,470 --> 00:22:51,360
for the pallets returned in the shuttle

563
00:22:54,710 --> 00:22:52,480
bay

564
00:22:56,230 --> 00:22:54,720
and that's basically just closing some

565
00:22:58,310 --> 00:22:56,240
quarter turn fasteners making sure all

566
00:22:59,990 --> 00:22:58,320
the coverings are down

567
00:23:02,149 --> 00:23:00,000
and then again the arm will move off to

568
00:23:03,350 --> 00:23:02,159
a clearance position

569
00:23:07,190 --> 00:23:03,360
uh

570
00:23:09,750 --> 00:23:07,200
relocated down the truss so that it can

571
00:23:12,149 --> 00:23:09,760
be put back in the payload bay

572
00:23:14,230 --> 00:23:12,159
at this point the crew is going to

573
00:23:15,669 --> 00:23:14,240
gather up those gap spanner chains that

574
00:23:16,870 --> 00:23:15,679
they installed back at the beginning of

575
00:23:18,230 --> 00:23:16,880
eva2

576
00:23:20,470 --> 00:23:18,240
we're going to grab one of the foot

577
00:23:22,630 --> 00:23:20,480
restraints that we have out there we are

578
00:23:25,430 --> 00:23:22,640
leaving one out for use

579
00:23:27,669 --> 00:23:25,440
on a later shuttle mission

580
00:23:29,430 --> 00:23:27,679
and we will take the

581
00:23:31,430 --> 00:23:29,440
foot restraint the gap spanner chains

582
00:23:33,909 --> 00:23:31,440
and then the two tool bags that we also

583
00:23:35,190 --> 00:23:33,919
had taken out there on eba to

584
00:23:37,190 --> 00:23:35,200
bring everything

585
00:23:39,190 --> 00:23:37,200
back in board

586
00:23:41,029 --> 00:23:39,200
we're going to drop the foot restraint

587
00:23:42,230 --> 00:23:41,039
off

588
00:23:43,990 --> 00:23:42,240
on the

589
00:23:45,430 --> 00:23:44,000
port seat of cart that's one of the

590
00:23:47,190 --> 00:23:45,440
carts attached there to the mobile

591
00:23:48,789 --> 00:23:47,200
transporter

592
00:23:50,870 --> 00:23:48,799
and at this point

593
00:23:52,549 --> 00:23:50,880
if is time remaining

594
00:23:55,029 --> 00:23:52,559
in the eva

595
00:23:57,029 --> 00:23:55,039
we'll go ahead and translate

596
00:23:58,710 --> 00:23:57,039
down to the shuttle

597
00:24:01,430 --> 00:23:58,720
we have a

598
00:24:02,710 --> 00:24:01,440
grapple fixture that we flew up on the

599
00:24:05,669 --> 00:24:02,720
port side

600
00:24:08,149 --> 00:24:05,679
of the shuttle payload bay

601
00:24:09,190 --> 00:24:08,159
so the crew will translate down on their

602
00:24:11,909 --> 00:24:09,200
way

603
00:24:14,310 --> 00:24:11,919
grab a handling aid

604
00:24:15,750 --> 00:24:14,320
that they can install onto the face of

605
00:24:17,669 --> 00:24:15,760
that

606
00:24:19,909 --> 00:24:17,679
grapple fixture

607
00:24:21,830 --> 00:24:19,919
once they have the handling aid

608
00:24:23,110 --> 00:24:21,840
installed

609
00:24:24,390 --> 00:24:23,120
you can see here in the video that's

610
00:24:26,149 --> 00:24:24,400
what they're doing right now is putting

611
00:24:27,669 --> 00:24:26,159
that handling aid on

612
00:24:30,950 --> 00:24:27,679
once that is installed they'll work

613
00:24:32,950 --> 00:24:30,960
together to remove four fasteners

614
00:24:35,350 --> 00:24:32,960
here they are driving

615
00:24:37,110 --> 00:24:35,360
those fasteners to release them

616
00:24:40,950 --> 00:24:37,120
remove the four fasteners that hold the

617
00:24:42,950 --> 00:24:40,960
grapple fixture to the payload bay wall

618
00:24:45,029 --> 00:24:42,960
pull it off

619
00:24:47,029 --> 00:24:45,039
and then

620
00:24:48,710 --> 00:24:47,039
we'll actually use that handling aid

621
00:24:49,909 --> 00:24:48,720
allows us to

622
00:24:51,830 --> 00:24:49,919
stow

623
00:24:54,230 --> 00:24:51,840
that grapple fixture onto

624
00:24:57,110 --> 00:24:54,240
mike good's body restraint tether

625
00:24:58,789 --> 00:24:57,120
on the left side of his spacesuit

626
00:25:00,950 --> 00:24:58,799
they'll then

627
00:25:02,470 --> 00:25:00,960
start the long translation from the

628
00:25:04,230 --> 00:25:02,480
shuttle payload bay back over to the

629
00:25:06,950 --> 00:25:04,240
airlock and we're actually going to take

630
00:25:10,230 --> 00:25:06,960
that grapple fixture back inside

631
00:25:11,830 --> 00:25:10,240
uh where it will be integrated onto some

632
00:25:13,750 --> 00:25:11,840
russian hardware

633
00:25:15,110 --> 00:25:13,760
and the plan is to take

634
00:25:17,029 --> 00:25:15,120
that full assembly with the grapple

635
00:25:19,269 --> 00:25:17,039
fixture and the russian hardware back

636
00:25:22,310 --> 00:25:19,279
out later on a stage eba

637
00:25:24,149 --> 00:25:22,320
front installation onto the fgb so it

638
00:25:27,029 --> 00:25:24,159
would give us a new arm base

639
00:25:30,149 --> 00:25:28,630
and when that is complete the crew is

640
00:25:35,990 --> 00:25:30,159
going to go go ahead and come back

641
00:25:40,149 --> 00:25:38,070
that go ahead and concludes the summary

642
00:25:42,950 --> 00:25:40,159
of the eba so if there's any questions

643
00:25:44,230 --> 00:25:42,960
now i can go ahead and take those

644
00:25:45,350 --> 00:25:44,240
okay we'll start off with questions here

645
00:25:50,470 --> 00:25:45,360
at the johnson space center then we'll

646
00:25:52,950 --> 00:25:51,669
nothing here

647
00:25:54,149 --> 00:25:52,960
anybody

648
00:25:55,029 --> 00:25:54,159
sure

649
00:25:56,870 --> 00:25:55,039
um

650
00:25:57,909 --> 00:25:56,880
moving the big batteries right you all

651
00:25:59,830 --> 00:25:57,919
have done stuff like this before is

652
00:26:02,149 --> 00:25:59,840
there anything in your mind especially

653
00:26:03,909 --> 00:26:02,159
challenging about any of these tasks if

654
00:26:05,430 --> 00:26:03,919
being either the the escant you know

655
00:26:07,350 --> 00:26:05,440
clearance issue and making sure you get

656
00:26:09,190 --> 00:26:07,360
it out without dinging something or just

657
00:26:11,190 --> 00:26:09,200
moving these masses around

658
00:26:13,510 --> 00:26:11,200
yeah the challenge i mean especially

659
00:26:14,230 --> 00:26:13,520
with the escant is that the uh

660
00:26:15,750 --> 00:26:14,240
well

661
00:26:17,269 --> 00:26:15,760
one like for the boom i mean like i said

662
00:26:19,350 --> 00:26:17,279
it's eight foot long

663
00:26:21,350 --> 00:26:19,360
so i mean it's just a very large mass

664
00:26:22,870 --> 00:26:21,360
it's not very heavy

665
00:26:24,789 --> 00:26:22,880
but the crew just needs to be careful as

666
00:26:27,190 --> 00:26:24,799
they you know translate it around and we

667
00:26:29,110 --> 00:26:27,200
especially want to make sure we don't

668
00:26:30,950 --> 00:26:29,120
hit any of the other hardware on the

669
00:26:33,590 --> 00:26:30,960
pallet so that's why it's very important

670
00:26:35,830 --> 00:26:33,600
that steve helps garrett lift that boom

671
00:26:37,669 --> 00:26:35,840
up over the gold posts

672
00:26:39,750 --> 00:26:37,679
on the dexter platform

673
00:26:41,750 --> 00:26:39,760
and then when we translate the dish

674
00:26:43,190 --> 00:26:41,760
itself that dish is very fragile that's

675
00:26:45,350 --> 00:26:43,200
a graphite

676
00:26:47,669 --> 00:26:45,360
composite dish

677
00:26:49,269 --> 00:26:47,679
so you can see there on the video it's a

678
00:26:50,710 --> 00:26:49,279
very tight clearance

679
00:26:52,470 --> 00:26:50,720
when garrett goes ahead and pulls that

680
00:26:54,310 --> 00:26:52,480
out so he just needs to be very careful

681
00:26:56,070 --> 00:26:54,320
and then again

682
00:26:57,830 --> 00:26:56,080
when they go to install the dish onto

683
00:26:59,830 --> 00:26:57,840
the boom

684
00:27:01,190 --> 00:26:59,840
we've been told by the engineers

685
00:27:03,350 --> 00:27:01,200
that own that hardware that that's a

686
00:27:04,710 --> 00:27:03,360
very very sensitive interface and any

687
00:27:06,230 --> 00:27:04,720
scratches could

688
00:27:07,990 --> 00:27:06,240
degrade the signal so we need to be

689
00:27:10,230 --> 00:27:08,000
careful with that

690
00:27:11,830 --> 00:27:10,240
as far as the batteries

691
00:27:13,669 --> 00:27:11,840
like i said they are big and kind of

692
00:27:14,710 --> 00:27:13,679
unwieldy you can't see a you know a lot

693
00:27:16,470 --> 00:27:14,720
when you're

694
00:27:17,830 --> 00:27:16,480
actually holding the battery but one of

695
00:27:19,830 --> 00:27:17,840
the biggest challenges on that you can

696
00:27:21,669 --> 00:27:19,840
see it's a very repetitive process you

697
00:27:22,789 --> 00:27:21,679
know so the crew

698
00:27:23,990 --> 00:27:22,799
you know they've trained a lot but they

699
00:27:26,070 --> 00:27:24,000
need to really keep their head in the

700
00:27:27,909 --> 00:27:26,080
game you know to not get

701
00:27:29,430 --> 00:27:27,919
complacent and

702
00:27:30,549 --> 00:27:29,440
make sure they always remember where

703
00:27:33,269 --> 00:27:30,559
they are and

704
00:27:35,269 --> 00:27:33,279
tony antonelli our iv is very very good

705
00:27:37,350 --> 00:27:35,279
at uh keeping everybody you know in the

706
00:27:39,029 --> 00:27:37,360
game and making sure that we're

707
00:27:41,190 --> 00:27:39,039
you know doing what we're supposed to do

708
00:27:43,190 --> 00:27:41,200
and one more for me um i'm given that

709
00:27:44,710 --> 00:27:43,200
you've got three guys doing two each

710
00:27:46,389 --> 00:27:44,720
and everybody's a lead on one is there a

711
00:27:47,750 --> 00:27:46,399
reason for that or is that just

712
00:27:48,870 --> 00:27:47,760
just to spread it spread it around a

713
00:27:50,630 --> 00:27:48,880
little bit i wasn't sure about the

714
00:27:51,909 --> 00:27:50,640
reason um it was really just to spread

715
00:27:53,750 --> 00:27:51,919
it around a little bit i mean it's rare

716
00:27:54,950 --> 00:27:53,760
that you have three veteran spacewalkers

717
00:27:56,710 --> 00:27:54,960
on one mission

718
00:27:58,389 --> 00:27:56,720
um so they each bring something

719
00:28:01,430 --> 00:27:58,399
different to the table you know steve

720
00:28:03,110 --> 00:28:01,440
has done the assembly missions before

721
00:28:04,870 --> 00:28:03,120
mike has done the hubble missions and

722
00:28:06,070 --> 00:28:04,880
garrett actually lived onboard space

723
00:28:07,190 --> 00:28:06,080
station so they each bring something

724
00:28:08,389 --> 00:28:07,200
different so

725
00:28:11,669 --> 00:28:08,399
we only thought it was fair that they

726
00:28:13,269 --> 00:28:11,679
each get to take the lead on an eva

727
00:28:14,630 --> 00:28:13,279
okay that's it from here let's go down

728
00:28:18,549 --> 00:28:14,640
to the kennedy space center in florida

729
00:28:23,430 --> 00:28:21,029
marcia dunn associated press

730
00:28:25,029 --> 00:28:23,440
for the battery work some of that prep

731
00:28:27,029 --> 00:28:25,039
work i know was taken off the last

732
00:28:29,350 --> 00:28:27,039
flight due to some safety concerns and

733
00:28:32,710 --> 00:28:29,360
i'm wondering what changes were made

734
00:28:36,389 --> 00:28:32,720
to make it safe for the upcoming

735
00:28:37,909 --> 00:28:36,399
spacewalks that's a very good question

736
00:28:40,470 --> 00:28:37,919
yes the

737
00:28:42,830 --> 00:28:40,480
originally the relocation of the

738
00:28:45,269 --> 00:28:42,840
portable foot restraints in the gap

739
00:28:48,230 --> 00:28:45,279
spanners along with the breaking of the

740
00:28:50,070 --> 00:28:48,240
torque on the six batteries on the truss

741
00:28:51,830 --> 00:28:50,080
was to take place by the

742
00:28:54,630 --> 00:28:51,840
last shuttle flight

743
00:28:57,590 --> 00:28:56,310
the reason they decided not to do that

744
00:28:59,510 --> 00:28:57,600
was because of

745
00:29:01,590 --> 00:28:59,520
an uncertainty

746
00:29:02,710 --> 00:29:01,600
with an electrical shock hazard that we

747
00:29:05,269 --> 00:29:02,720
had

748
00:29:07,750 --> 00:29:05,279
and so we are flying up

749
00:29:09,830 --> 00:29:07,760
new mini workstations which is the

750
00:29:11,430 --> 00:29:09,840
piece of hardware that the crew wears on

751
00:29:13,029 --> 00:29:11,440
the front of the spacesuits that holds

752
00:29:14,149 --> 00:29:13,039
the tools

753
00:29:15,909 --> 00:29:14,159
for them

754
00:29:18,710 --> 00:29:15,919
those new base plates

755
00:29:20,070 --> 00:29:18,720
are electrically isolated from the suits

756
00:29:21,830 --> 00:29:20,080
and

757
00:29:23,750 --> 00:29:21,840
that will reduce the

758
00:29:25,909 --> 00:29:23,760
hazard back into an acceptable range

759
00:29:29,430 --> 00:29:25,919
when our crew performs the uh that

760
00:29:33,669 --> 00:29:30,710
will they be taking any other

761
00:29:36,310 --> 00:29:33,679
precautions aside from that to

762
00:29:38,549 --> 00:29:36,320
further reduce the risk or is that

763
00:29:42,070 --> 00:29:38,559
enough in terms of the

764
00:29:44,549 --> 00:29:42,080
safety concerns we had we had other

765
00:29:48,389 --> 00:29:44,559
mitigation

766
00:29:50,470 --> 00:29:48,399
that's to always make sure that their

767
00:29:52,630 --> 00:29:50,480
their wrist rings are covered by their

768
00:29:54,389 --> 00:29:52,640
gauntlets

769
00:29:55,350 --> 00:29:54,399
other than that we we don't have any

770
00:29:59,669 --> 00:29:55,360
other

771
00:30:03,830 --> 00:30:01,750
and and lastly for the last question

772
00:30:05,750 --> 00:30:03,840
from here how many um

773
00:30:08,389 --> 00:30:05,760
how what is the distance between that

774
00:30:10,470 --> 00:30:08,399
work site on the far port side and the

775
00:30:12,389 --> 00:30:10,480
airlock in terms of the distance

776
00:30:14,789 --> 00:30:12,399
traveled by the crew not you know as the

777
00:30:16,950 --> 00:30:14,799
bird fly so to speak but from

778
00:30:18,630 --> 00:30:16,960
hand over hand crawling how many feet is

779
00:30:19,590 --> 00:30:18,640
that do you know offhand

780
00:30:21,190 --> 00:30:19,600
um

781
00:30:24,310 --> 00:30:21,200
i don't let me see i don't i don't know

782
00:30:25,750 --> 00:30:24,320
exactly off hand but i know we're

783
00:30:27,909 --> 00:30:25,760
almost towards the end of our tethers

784
00:30:29,909 --> 00:30:27,919
we're using an 85 foot safety tether to

785
00:30:31,590 --> 00:30:29,919
get out

786
00:30:33,269 --> 00:30:31,600
to an anchor point where we're we're

787
00:30:35,269 --> 00:30:33,279
dropping the anchors of those tethers

788
00:30:37,350 --> 00:30:35,279
off and then we

789
00:30:38,909 --> 00:30:37,360
go another 85 feet

790
00:30:41,830 --> 00:30:38,919
from there so it's at

791
00:30:44,470 --> 00:30:41,840
170 feet and then we have a 55 foot

792
00:30:46,230 --> 00:30:44,480
tether connected to our 85 foot tethers

793
00:30:48,549 --> 00:30:46,240
so that would be some place in the

794
00:30:51,430 --> 00:30:48,559
neighborhood of 220 feet that the crew

795
00:30:54,549 --> 00:30:51,440
is translating

796
00:30:56,950 --> 00:30:55,830
okay i think that's it from the kennedy

797
00:31:02,310 --> 00:30:56,960
space center let's go to nasa

798
00:31:07,350 --> 00:31:04,310
thank you it's uh tarek malek from

799
00:31:08,789 --> 00:31:07,360
space.com and uh you know i it seemed

800
00:31:10,470 --> 00:31:08,799
you mentioned the the repetitive nature

801
00:31:13,269 --> 00:31:10,480
of the battery working and that it's

802
00:31:15,669 --> 00:31:13,279
going to take a couple spacewalks to um

803
00:31:18,470 --> 00:31:15,679
to complete i'm just wondering how um

804
00:31:21,029 --> 00:31:18,480
how you do keep them focused on what it

805
00:31:23,669 --> 00:31:21,039
what looks to be a pretty tedious

806
00:31:25,830 --> 00:31:23,679
task at the end of the space station and

807
00:31:27,830 --> 00:31:25,840
i guess how many runs that they do each

808
00:31:29,909 --> 00:31:27,840
of the spacewalkers perform

809
00:31:32,230 --> 00:31:29,919
to rehearse those those

810
00:31:33,509 --> 00:31:32,240
actions thanks

811
00:31:35,750 --> 00:31:33,519
good question

812
00:31:37,350 --> 00:31:35,760
uh we actually as far as timeline runs

813
00:31:39,110 --> 00:31:37,360
for the batteries

814
00:31:40,789 --> 00:31:39,120
we did six

815
00:31:42,549 --> 00:31:40,799
runs in the water there was actually an

816
00:31:44,230 --> 00:31:42,559
another few

817
00:31:45,509 --> 00:31:44,240
runs that we did just for development to

818
00:31:47,509 --> 00:31:45,519
make sure we

819
00:31:50,630 --> 00:31:47,519
we had a good technique for training the

820
00:31:55,110 --> 00:31:52,630
as far as keeping the crew on game i

821
00:31:56,870 --> 00:31:55,120
mean when you're holding a big 365 pound

822
00:31:57,830 --> 00:31:56,880
battery i think they're they're very

823
00:32:00,630 --> 00:31:57,840
aware

824
00:32:02,710 --> 00:32:00,640
um how important it is um to stay with

825
00:32:04,950 --> 00:32:02,720
it but like i said our our iv tony

826
00:32:07,990 --> 00:32:04,960
antonelli um he really

827
00:32:11,110 --> 00:32:08,000
you know um keeps the crews the crew

828
00:32:12,470 --> 00:32:11,120
talking he makes sure makes sure that uh

829
00:32:14,389 --> 00:32:12,480
you know that

830
00:32:16,789 --> 00:32:14,399
that the guy on the pallet is

831
00:32:18,789 --> 00:32:16,799
communicating clearly to piers

832
00:32:19,750 --> 00:32:18,799
operating it from the arm so

833
00:32:21,110 --> 00:32:19,760
um

834
00:32:24,149 --> 00:32:21,120
we haven't

835
00:32:26,230 --> 00:32:24,159
and executed this but i don't think the

836
00:32:29,830 --> 00:32:26,240
crew is going to have any problems

837
00:32:31,029 --> 00:32:29,840
keeping their head in the game

838
00:32:32,710 --> 00:32:31,039
i think that's it from headquarters

839
00:32:37,830 --> 00:32:32,720
let's come back here for some follow-ups

840
00:32:41,269 --> 00:32:39,190
yeah just have a quick one uh mark

841
00:32:42,789 --> 00:32:41,279
kirkman inner space news can you tell me

842
00:32:45,190 --> 00:32:42,799
where you stand on eva training at this

843
00:32:48,070 --> 00:32:45,200
point are any more nbl runs uh vr lab

844
00:32:50,789 --> 00:32:48,080
runs or sims left nope at this point

845
00:32:52,310 --> 00:32:50,799
we've completed all of the mbl runs and

846
00:32:53,750 --> 00:32:52,320
it's a good point we did because this

847
00:32:55,669 --> 00:32:53,760
was so hard to train in the pool we

848
00:32:57,750 --> 00:32:55,679
pretty much coupled every

849
00:32:59,430 --> 00:32:57,760
pool run with a run in the virtual

850
00:33:01,029 --> 00:32:59,440
reality lab so

851
00:33:04,070 --> 00:33:01,039
but at this point everything is complete

852
00:33:05,509 --> 00:33:04,080
the crew's fully trained and ready to go

853
00:33:07,750 --> 00:33:05,519
okay bill

854
00:33:09,029 --> 00:33:07,760
yeah just one more follow-up on marsha's

855
00:33:10,470 --> 00:33:09,039
question about the shock hazard i was

856
00:33:12,950 --> 00:33:10,480
never clear when they told us about this

857
00:33:14,310 --> 00:33:12,960
last time was this an issue that your

858
00:33:16,149 --> 00:33:14,320
suit takes a charge and you have a

859
00:33:17,669 --> 00:33:16,159
malfunction or does this kill somebody i

860
00:33:19,269 --> 00:33:17,679
mean i never really understood the real

861
00:33:20,789 --> 00:33:19,279
nature of the threat

862
00:33:22,149 --> 00:33:20,799
um

863
00:33:24,389 --> 00:33:22,159
i'm probably not the best person to

864
00:33:26,310 --> 00:33:24,399
answer that but in my understanding is

865
00:33:29,430 --> 00:33:26,320
it's not something that's going to kill

866
00:33:31,590 --> 00:33:29,440
somebody but it could cause you to

867
00:33:34,230 --> 00:33:31,600
involuntarily move

868
00:33:35,590 --> 00:33:34,240
maybe cause somebody to drop a battery

869
00:33:39,110 --> 00:33:35,600
lose their grip

870
00:33:41,029 --> 00:33:39,120
on the trust something like that

871
00:33:42,549 --> 00:33:41,039
okay is that it from here

872
00:33:44,549 --> 00:33:42,559
all right we'll wrap up today's briefing

873
00:33:46,710 --> 00:33:44,559
coming up next here on nasa television

874
00:33:47,990 --> 00:33:46,720
we'll have the bureau video file you'll

875
00:33:48,870 --> 00:33:48,000
see all the animations and some of the

876
00:33:50,389 --> 00:33:48,880
video

877
00:33:52,230 --> 00:33:50,399
that you've been seeing during today's

878
00:33:55,029 --> 00:33:52,240
briefings our next briefing from here at

879
00:33:58,070 --> 00:33:55,039
jsc will take place at 1 pm central time

880
00:33:59,990 --> 00:33:58,080
2 pm eastern time the entire sts-132

881
00:34:01,909 --> 00:34:00,000
crew will be here to answer questions

882
00:34:03,590 --> 00:34:01,919
about their upcoming flight

883
00:34:06,830 --> 00:34:03,600
as always for the latest information you
