and

105
00:09:58,070 --> 00:09:56,640
i wonder first of all if you could give

106
00:09:59,990 --> 00:09:58,080
us a little bit of

107
00:10:02,470 --> 00:10:00,000
your impressions of what it was like to

108
00:10:03,990 --> 00:10:02,480
be in that white room and getting on

109
00:10:06,630 --> 00:10:04,000
board the shuttle right now what are

110
00:10:08,069 --> 00:10:06,640
your sort of your recollections

111
00:10:09,509 --> 00:10:08,079
over a year ago and good morning it was

112
00:10:12,790 --> 00:10:09,519
just a little over a year ago and it was

113
00:10:13,990 --> 00:10:12,800
a it was a good afternoon um

114
00:10:15,350 --> 00:10:14,000
it's uh

115
00:10:17,110 --> 00:10:15,360
something was very familiar we actually

116
00:10:19,430 --> 00:10:17,120
come down here a little bit a month

117
00:10:21,430 --> 00:10:19,440
before we launched to kind of do a dress

118
00:10:23,269 --> 00:10:21,440
rehearsal of all the activities so you

119
00:10:25,509 --> 00:10:23,279
know the people the faces and all the

120
00:10:26,710 --> 00:10:25,519
procedures are very familiar the only

121
00:10:32,630 --> 00:10:26,720
the only difference today is it's going

122
00:10:35,269 --> 00:10:34,069
get a pretty good view looking down into

123
00:10:37,110 --> 00:10:35,279
the cockpit there you can see all the

124
00:10:38,790 --> 00:10:37,120
switches the overhead switches uh ken

125
00:10:40,389 --> 00:10:38,800
ham is on the right tony antonella you

126
00:10:42,069 --> 00:10:40,399
can see his american flag on his left

127
00:10:43,590 --> 00:10:42,079
shoulder and chris cassidy the top of

128
00:10:44,790 --> 00:10:43,600
his head he's the astronaut support

129
00:10:46,870 --> 00:10:44,800
personnel

130
00:10:48,310 --> 00:10:46,880
and um getting in there's a little

131
00:10:49,910 --> 00:10:48,320
tricky uh you'll notice when they were

132
00:10:51,829 --> 00:10:49,920
getting them in there early you saw

133
00:10:53,670 --> 00:10:51,839
chris being very careful with uh with

134
00:10:55,030 --> 00:10:53,680
the guy's uh heads and helmets because

135
00:10:57,350 --> 00:10:55,040
it'd be really easy to bump one of those

136
00:11:01,269 --> 00:10:57,360
switches uh right overhead

137
00:11:03,190 --> 00:11:01,279
but i gather if that happens was uh

138
00:11:05,110 --> 00:11:03,200
pretty easy to notice in the firing room

139
00:11:06,710 --> 00:11:05,120
or somewhere isn't it absolutely someone

140
00:11:07,990 --> 00:11:06,720
down here is playing coast attention and

141
00:11:09,990 --> 00:11:08,000
you can see garrett riesman getting

142
00:11:12,230 --> 00:11:10,000
strapped into that uh in the lower

143
00:11:14,710 --> 00:11:12,240
left-hand corner there he's ms-1 on this

144
00:11:16,550 --> 00:11:14,720
mission and um his job really is to keep

145
00:11:19,269 --> 00:11:16,560
an eye on keep an eye on tony back him

146
00:11:21,430 --> 00:11:19,279
up help him out we got a one of the big

147

00:14:01,030 --> 00:13:59,279
which is part of the kind of the

190
00:14:02,870 --> 00:14:01,040
closeout crew the suit technicians are

191
00:14:04,150 --> 00:14:02,880
basically assigned to the crew and

192
00:14:06,389 --> 00:14:04,160
they'll be working more than one mission

193
00:14:07,829 --> 00:14:06,399
at a time but they're the guys who are

194
00:14:09,590 --> 00:14:07,839
coming out to training events whenever

195
00:14:11,350 --> 00:14:09,600
we're suited wearing these orange suits

196
00:14:13,269 --> 00:14:11,360
they'll be there supporting and

197
00:14:15,189 --> 00:14:13,279
they really know the equipment they kind

198
00:14:16,949 --> 00:14:15,199
of know what's worked and what hasn't

199
00:14:18,790 --> 00:14:16,959
worked and they do a really outstanding

200
00:14:20,310 --> 00:14:18,800
job getting us ready to fly and making

201
00:14:22,310 --> 00:14:20,320
sure we have all the proper equipment we

202
00:14:24,870 --> 00:14:22,320
need to get up there safely

203
00:14:27,110 --> 00:14:24,880
so it looks like they're all aboard now

204
00:14:28,829 --> 00:14:27,120
yeah it sure does uh getting bueno

205
00:14:31,030 --> 00:14:28,839
strapped in and

206
00:14:33,670 --> 00:14:31,040
uh they're getting some preparations

207
00:14:41,269 --> 00:14:33,680
made to the hatch and uh

208
00:14:44,790 --> 00:14:42,870
and attention on the net this is the

209
00:14:46,949 --> 00:14:44,800

folks out there that have taken care of

247
00:16:19,030 --> 00:16:17,199
this bird for a long time

248
00:16:21,430 --> 00:16:19,040
uh right now special thanks to orbiter

249
00:16:23,110 --> 00:16:21,440
for getting us off the pad today

250
00:16:24,629 --> 00:16:23,120
and uh we're going to take her on our 30

251
00:16:26,389 --> 00:16:24,639
second flight

252
00:16:28,069 --> 00:16:26,399
and if you don't mind we'll take her out

253
00:16:33,990 --> 00:16:28,079
of the barn and make a few more laps

by yekley

255
00:16:46,790 --> 00:16:42,629
and we'll try to get you out of here on

256
00:16:52,949 --> 00:16:48,629
and ntd launch director you are clear to

257
00:16:56,629 --> 00:16:54,710
the countdown clock will resume on my

it's with great pride that we send the

274
00:17:39,830 --> 00:17:38,080
first last crew of atlantis to the

275
00:17:44,630 --> 00:17:39,840
international space station with the

276
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:48,310

atlantis reaching the rest of its

297
00:19:33,190 --> 00:19:31,350
houston is now controlling

298
00:19:35,110 --> 00:19:33,200
the roll maneuver is complete atlantis

299
00:19:39,830 --> 00:19:35,120
is in a heads-down position on course

300
00:19:49,669 --> 00:19:39,840
for a 51.6 degree 136 by 36 statute mile

301
00:19:53,430 --> 00:19:51,510
and the three main engines on atlantis

302
00:19:55,909 --> 00:19:53,440
have now been throttled down to 72

303
00:19:57,909 --> 00:19:55,919
percent of rated thrust as the orbiter

304
00:19:59,909 --> 00:19:57,919
prepares to pass through the area of

305
00:20:08,710 --> 00:19:59,919
maximum dynamic pressure on the vehicle

306
00:20:12,149 --> 00:20:10,390
the engine's now beginning to throttle

307
00:20:28,870 --> 00:20:12,159
back up

308
00:20:33,510 --> 00:20:30,950
all three engines looking really good

309
00:20:35,270 --> 00:20:33,520
back at full throttle now at liftoff the

310
00:20:36,549 --> 00:20:35,280
fully fueled shuttle boosters and

311
00:20:38,870 --> 00:20:36,559
external tank

312
00:20:41,270 --> 00:20:38,880
weighed four and a half million pounds

313
00:20:44,230 --> 00:20:41,280
it now has burned half of that liftoff

314
00:20:46,070 --> 00:20:44,240
weight and propellant

315
00:20:47,909 --> 00:20:46,080
one minute 30 seconds into the flight

316
00:20:50,230 --> 00:20:47,919
all three auxiliary power units that

317
00:20:52,310 --> 00:20:50,240
provide hydraulic power to the orbiter's

318
00:20:55,110 --> 00:20:52,320
systems in good shape as are the fuel

319
00:20:57,350 --> 00:20:55,120
cells providing electricity to all of

320
00:21:00,149 --> 00:20:57,360
the systems on board atlantis is already

321
00:21:02,630 --> 00:21:00,159
19 miles in altitude downrange from the

322
00:21:07,990 --> 00:21:02,640
kennedy space center 20 miles traveling

323
00:21:12,470 --> 00:21:10,230
coming up on staging the point at which

324
00:21:26,470 --> 00:21:12,480
the twin solid rocket boosters burn out

325
00:21:31,350 --> 00:21:28,830
booster separation

326
00:21:32,950 --> 00:21:31,360
confirmed the onboard guidance system

327
00:21:35,029 --> 00:21:32,960
has done its job of

328
00:21:36,710 --> 00:21:35,039
settling out any of the dispersions that

329
00:21:38,390 --> 00:21:36,720
have been introduced at the booster

330
00:21:41,350 --> 00:21:38,400
separation

331
00:21:44,470 --> 00:21:41,360
atlantis performance thus far is

332
00:21:45,830 --> 00:21:44,480
exactly as planned as atlantis heads

333
00:21:47,990 --> 00:21:45,840
into orbit

334
00:21:51,430 --> 00:21:48,000
flying heads down wings level into a

335
00:21:54,149 --> 00:21:51,440
historic sunset on its 32nd mission

336
00:21:59,510 --> 00:21:54,159
two engine tau

337
00:22:04,950 --> 00:22:02,630
atlantis can now reach zaragoza in spain

338
00:22:06,870 --> 00:22:04,960
in the event of a single engine failure

339
00:22:09,430 --> 00:22:06,880
however all three main engines are still

340
00:22:12,630 --> 00:22:09,440
operating at full throttle 104 percent

341
00:22:14,470 --> 00:22:12,640
of rated thrust

342
00:22:16,549 --> 00:22:14,480
the auxiliary power unit still in great

343
00:22:19,590 --> 00:22:16,559
shape as are the fuel cells atlantis is

344
00:22:22,549 --> 00:22:19,600
traveling 3 700 miles per hour at an

345
00:22:47,029 --> 00:22:22,559
altitude of 47 miles downrange from the

346
00:22:50,789 --> 00:22:49,190
atlantis is getting a boost from the

347
00:22:53,350 --> 00:22:50,799
orbital maneuvering system engines on

348
00:22:55,110 --> 00:22:53,360
the tail of the vehicle those

349
00:23:12,549 --> 00:22:55,120
have been burning now for about one and

350
00:23:19,350 --> 00:23:16,070
atlantis your negative return

351
00:23:21,270 --> 00:23:19,360
copy scores negative return

352
00:23:23,029 --> 00:23:21,280
negative return means atlantis can no

353
00:23:24,950 --> 00:23:23,039
longer return to the kennedy space

354
00:23:27,510 --> 00:23:24,960
center in the event of an engine failure

355
00:23:30,070 --> 00:23:27,520
it's already traveling too far too high

356
00:23:42,710 --> 00:23:30,080
and too fast to return to the launch

357
00:23:49,590 --> 00:23:45,350
atlantis you are press to mikko and

358
00:23:51,430 --> 00:23:49,600
single engine zaragoza 104.

359
00:23:54,149 --> 00:23:51,440
copy prestamiko single engines there

360
00:23:57,350 --> 00:23:54,159
goes the 104

361
00:24:10,070 --> 00:23:57,360
and scorch i got the roll

362
00:24:14,950 --> 00:24:12,710
atlantis we will have a nominal shutdown

363
00:24:18,310 --> 00:24:14,960
on all three you will be go for the plus

364
00:24:21,110 --> 00:24:18,320
x go for the pitch

365
00:24:24,310 --> 00:24:21,120
atlantis got these nominal shutdowns go

366
00:24:27,669 --> 00:24:24,320
for the plus x go for the pitch

367
00:24:31,830 --> 00:24:29,750
that rolled the heads up provides a good

368
00:24:34,390 --> 00:24:31,840
satellite communications linked with

369
00:24:36,870 --> 00:24:34,400
atlantis continuing its uh

370
00:24:39,110 --> 00:24:36,880
travel into space approaching seven

371
00:24:44,310 --> 00:24:39,120
seven minutes into the flight atlantis

372
00:24:47,510 --> 00:24:45,510
104.

373
00:24:49,510 --> 00:24:47,520
atlantis can reach orbit on one engine

374
00:24:52,789 --> 00:24:49,520
now should two fail however all three

375
00:24:57,669 --> 00:24:55,909
atlantis is now traveling 13 000 miles

376
00:25:00,070 --> 00:24:57,679
per hour

377
00:25:02,789 --> 00:25:00,080
580 miles away from the kennedy space

378
00:25:06,310 --> 00:25:02,799
center at an altitude of 340 000 feet or

379
00:25:10,950 --> 00:25:07,990
shortly the three main engines will

380
00:25:12,950 --> 00:25:10,960
begin throttling back to maintain the

381
00:25:14,870 --> 00:25:12,960
structural limits on the orbiter as it

382
00:25:29,190 --> 00:25:14,880
approaches loads near three times

383
00:25:33,830 --> 00:25:31,269
all quiet uh here in mission control

384
00:25:35,590 --> 00:25:33,840
with all systems in great shape atlantis

385
00:25:37,830 --> 00:25:35,600
is traveling 15

386
00:25:39,269 --> 00:25:37,840
500 miles per hour

387
00:25:42,630 --> 00:25:39,279
approaching eight minutes into the

388
00:25:44,950 --> 00:25:42,640
flight downrange 740 miles at an

389
00:25:59,269 --> 00:25:44,960
altitude of 64 miles

390
00:26:04,310 --> 00:26:01,430
standing by for main engine cutoff

391
00:26:17,029 --> 00:26:04,320
confirmation as atlantis is in excellent

392
00:26:21,669 --> 00:26:19,110
main engine cutoff confirm standing by

393
00:26:36,870 --> 00:26:21,679
for separation from the external fuel

394
00:26:43,430 --> 00:26:39,190
atlantis now uh flying away from the

395
00:26:48,470 --> 00:26:46,470
plus x uh burn maneuver being performed

396
00:26:50,789 --> 00:26:48,480
by commander ken ham

397
00:26:53,750 --> 00:26:50,799
nominal miko almost one night not

398
00:27:00,470 --> 00:26:53,760
required preliminary ohms to tig will be

399
00:27:04,870 --> 00:27:02,310
we are now getting our first look of the

400
00:27:06,630 --> 00:27:04,880
external tank

401
00:27:08,470 --> 00:27:06,640
as it drifted away from space shuttle

402
00:27:11,110 --> 00:27:08,480
atlantis soon after the shuttle reached

403
00:27:13,669 --> 00:27:11,120
orbit after its eight and a half minute

404
00:27:15,350 --> 00:27:13,679
ride into space earlier today

405
00:27:17,669 --> 00:27:15,360
as is typical with all space shuttle

406
00:27:19,029 --> 00:27:17,679
missions the crew rapidly gets out their

407
00:27:20,389 --> 00:27:19,039
handheld camera

408
00:27:23,190 --> 00:27:20,399
and take some still

409
00:27:26,070 --> 00:27:23,200
and motion video of the external tank as

410
00:27:28,230 --> 00:27:26,080
it drifts away from the shuttle

411
00:27:29,990 --> 00:27:28,240
this gives the ground teams an idea of

412
00:27:32,230 --> 00:27:30,000
exactly how the foam on the external

413
00:27:35,590 --> 00:27:32,240
tank fared to make sure that all of it

414
00:27:37,830 --> 00:27:35,600
stayed in its proper position

415
00:27:39,269 --> 00:27:37,840
you can see some

416
00:27:42,230 --> 00:27:39,279
some of the cryogenics from inside that

417
00:27:44,630 --> 00:27:42,240
tank still venting as the tank separated

418
00:27:46,950 --> 00:27:44,640
from space shuttle atlantis

419
00:27:48,789 --> 00:27:46,960
that tank also has

420
00:27:51,110 --> 00:27:48,799
what are known as tumble jets installed

421
00:27:52,789 --> 00:27:51,120
on it that

422
00:27:54,149 --> 00:27:52,799
enable the tank to basically flip end

423
00:27:56,310 --> 00:27:54,159
over in to ensure that it actually

424
00:27:57,510 --> 00:27:56,320
breaks up as expected as it goes back

425
00:28:03,909 --> 00:27:57,520
down into the earth's atmosphere it

426
00:28:07,430 --> 00:28:05,750
in this view inside atlanta's payload

427
00:28:08,710 --> 00:28:07,440
bay you can see the orbital boom sensor

428
00:28:10,149 --> 00:28:08,720
system

429
00:28:11,830 --> 00:28:10,159
attachment there at the very center of

430
00:28:12,870 --> 00:28:11,840
your screen that's a piece of the

431
00:28:15,110 --> 00:28:12,880
equipment that looks like a small

432
00:28:16,630 --> 00:28:15,120
antenna sticking out is actually the

433
00:28:18,389 --> 00:28:16,640
part that the shuttle's robotic arm

434
00:28:20,070 --> 00:28:18,399
grabs onto you can also see the

435
00:28:21,909 --> 00:28:20,080
integrated cargo carrier there at the

436
00:28:23,990 --> 00:28:21,919
middle of your screen that's the large

437
00:28:26,070 --> 00:28:24,000
cargo pallet that has a bunch of these

438
00:28:28,149 --> 00:28:26,080
spare parts that atlantis is bringing up

439
00:28:30,389 --> 00:28:28,159
to the station on the front side of

440
00:28:31,909 --> 00:28:30,399
there you can see the spare space to

441
00:28:34,070 --> 00:28:31,919
ground antenna looks like a small

442
00:28:35,830 --> 00:28:34,080
satellite dish on the back side which is

443
00:28:37,909 --> 00:28:35,840
not in this view but you can see the

444
00:28:40,230 --> 00:28:37,919
batteries that are bound for the port

445
00:28:41,990 --> 00:28:40,240
truss those will be installed

446
00:28:43,269 --> 00:28:42,000
on some of the spacewalks planned for

447
00:28:44,470 --> 00:28:43,279
this flight

448
00:28:47,110 --> 00:28:44,480
there's some old batteries that will be

449
00:28:48,950 --> 00:28:47,120
retrieved and put back onto this

450
00:28:51,430 --> 00:28:48,960
cargo pallet and brought back in

451
00:28:53,430 --> 00:28:51,440
atlantis payload bay but that entire

452
00:28:54,310 --> 00:28:53,440
pallet with all the spare parts located

453
00:28:57,830 --> 00:28:54,320
on it

454
00:29:00,870 --> 00:28:57,840
currently weighs 8 330 pounds it'll come

455
00:29:03,029 --> 00:29:00,880
back weighing right at 6 000 pounds

456
00:29:05,110 --> 00:29:03,039
a little bit less but still

457
00:29:07,029 --> 00:29:05,120
fairly heavy nonetheless but all of the

458
00:29:09,029 --> 00:29:07,039
spare parts that is coming up on this

459
00:29:10,789 --> 00:29:09,039
cargo pallet will ultimately be

460
00:29:13,029 --> 00:29:10,799
installed on what is known as external

461
00:29:14,630 --> 00:29:13,039
stowage platform number three

462
00:29:16,070 --> 00:29:14,640
this is exactly what it sounds like a

463
00:29:18,789 --> 00:29:16,080
large stowage

464
00:29:20,470 --> 00:29:18,799
uh platform and a pallet that is out on

465
00:29:22,789 --> 00:29:20,480
the station's truss

466
00:29:25,029 --> 00:29:22,799
this particular one esp3 is out on the

467
00:29:26,630 --> 00:29:25,039
left hand side the port truss

468
00:29:29,029 --> 00:29:26,640
there is quite a number of spare parts

469
00:29:30,149 --> 00:29:29,039
out on the ends of the station's truss

470
00:29:32,149 --> 00:29:30,159
structure

471
00:29:33,830 --> 00:29:32,159
so that if those are to ever be needed
