1 00:00:17,269 --> 00:00:14,070 for expedition 25 26 to the 2 00:00:20,950 --> 00:00:17,279 international space station 3 00:00:24,790 --> 00:00:20,960 prime crew alexander cullery 4 00:00:26,070 --> 00:00:24,800 commander of the manned spacecraft soyuz 5 00:00:28,870 --> 00:00:26,080 from uh 6 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:42,630 site 7 00:00:42,640 --> 00:01:11,350 m 8 00:01:15,590 --> 00:01:13,750 26. 9 00:01:17,190 --> 00:01:15,600 the press conference will last up to one 10 00:01:19,670 --> 00:01:17,200 hour 11 00:01:32,710 --> 00:01:19,680 many languages russian and english 12 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:56,149 to the station 13 00:02:01,350 --> 00:01:58,550 but if everybody every one of us will be 14 00:02:10,070 --> 00:02:01,360 talking about this it will take 15 00:02:14,070 --> 00:02:12,630 this is my fifth time and uh 16 00:02:16,470 --> 00:02:14,080 i never 17 00:02:20,150 --> 00:02:16,480 give way to my own habits 18 00:02:21,510 --> 00:02:20,160 and uh this is something very dear to me 19 00:02:23,670 --> 00:02:21,520 something very dear to my friends to my 20 00:02:25,910 --> 00:02:23,680 family 21 00:02:28,470 --> 00:02:25,920 something an example 22 00:02:32,949 --> 00:02:28,480 probably a teddy bear 23 00:02:48,710 --> 00:02:34,710 it's really a monkey 24 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:56,790 additional 25 00:03:00,550 --> 00:02:58,309 something that shows 26 00:03:02,790 --> 00:03:00,560 that there is zero g 27 00:03:07,910 --> 00:03:02,800 there is only one zero g device and it 28 00:03:17,509 --> 00:03:10,869 but actually you guessed right it's a 29 00:03:20,390 --> 00:03:18,630 i have 30 00:03:23,270 --> 00:03:20,400 scott kelly 31 00:03:25,589 --> 00:03:23,280 jewelry items that are similar to our 32 00:03:27,830 --> 00:03:25,599 midfield or uh 33 00:03:31,030 --> 00:03:27,840 26th mission patch 34 00:03:36,309 --> 00:03:34,070 just some other small items from friends 35 00:03:38,070 --> 00:03:36,319 military 36 00:03:39,750 --> 00:03:38,080 emblems 37 00:03:41,509 --> 00:03:39,760 and things like that 38 00:03:44,309 --> 00:03:41,519 so what about the program other 39 00:03:46,470 --> 00:03:44,319 scientific experiments 40 00:03:48,550 --> 00:03:46,480 scientific research and are there any 41 00:03:50,869 --> 00:03:48,560 general trends in the research you're 42 00:03:53,270 --> 00:03:50,879 going to do 43 00:03:57,750 --> 00:03:53,280 what areas is this research going to be 44 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:06,309 probably i should answer this question 45 00:04:06,319 --> 00:04:10,550 this second stage of the iss 46 00:04:15,030 --> 00:04:12,830 basically stipulates that each 47 00:04:16,550 --> 00:04:15,040 partner has 48 00:04:19,110 --> 00:04:16,560 their own 49 00:04:21,349 --> 00:04:19,120 scientific experiment program but this 50 00:04:23,670 --> 00:04:21,359 does not 51 00:04:24,950 --> 00:04:23,680 exclude participation of the other 52 00:04:27,189 --> 00:04:24,960 partners 53 00:04:28,790 --> 00:04:27,199 it's not something that we currently 54 00:04:31,350 --> 00:04:28,800 have a news 55 00:04:32,550 --> 00:04:31,360 but uh the scientific experiment program 56 00:04:35,990 --> 00:04:32,560 if something 57 00:04:38,150 --> 00:04:36,000 is very flexible and they're still being 58 00:04:41,350 --> 00:04:38,160 specified right now so 59 00:04:42,950 --> 00:04:41,360 we can never exclude a cooperation and a 60 00:04:44,790 --> 00:04:42,960 partnership 61 00:04:46,950 --> 00:04:44,800 as far as science goes 62 00:04:49,909 --> 00:04:46,960 as far as fresh the russian experiment 63 00:04:51,030 --> 00:04:49,919 program we have a few traditional 64 00:04:53,830 --> 00:04:51,040 trends 65 00:04:58,390 --> 00:04:53,840 this is life sciences 66 00:05:01,670 --> 00:04:59,590 probing 67 00:05:04,629 --> 00:05:01,680 the earth from the distance 68 00:05:06,870 --> 00:05:04,639 technical experiments 69 00:05:08,150 --> 00:05:06,880 first of all with the view of 70 00:05:09,590 --> 00:05:08,160 perfecting 71 00:05:12,390 --> 00:05:09,600 the 72 00:05:14,310 --> 00:05:12,400 equipment for uh space flights 73 00:05:17,270 --> 00:05:14,320 also education experiments 74 00:05:21,510 --> 00:05:17,280 so all kinds of areas and we have a few 75 00:05:27,909 --> 00:05:25,590 here you see a 34 but actually our data 76 00:05:28,710 --> 00:05:27,919 shows might be a bit more 77 00:05:30,550 --> 00:05:28,720 and 78 00:05:33,990 --> 00:05:30,560 we're still specifying the 79 00:05:40,710 --> 00:05:34,000 final figure is not final just yet 80 00:05:45,990 --> 00:05:42,790 you also asked a question how 81 00:05:48,310 --> 00:05:46,000 related these programs are so despite 82 00:05:50,230 --> 00:05:48,320 the fact that each program is uh 83 00:05:51,590 --> 00:05:50,240 specified by each country by each 84 00:05:53,110 --> 00:05:51,600 partner 85 00:05:54,710 --> 00:05:53,120 there are certain restrictions general 86 00:05:56,629 --> 00:05:54,720 restrictions 87 00:05:58,230 --> 00:05:56,639 say if certain program 88 00:06:00,070 --> 00:05:58,240 demands a 89 00:06:00,950 --> 00:06:00,080 certain focus 90 00:06:03,189 --> 00:06:00,960 we 91 00:06:05,430 --> 00:06:03,199 can never fail take into account what 92 00:06:08,230 --> 00:06:05,440 the other side is doing so they're still 93 00:06:10,469 --> 00:06:08,240 joined it is still coordinated and 94 00:06:13,590 --> 00:06:10,479 everybody still takes into account what 95 00:06:16,070 --> 00:06:13,600 the others are doing the same question 96 00:06:17,909 --> 00:06:16,080 about the planned experiments from your 97 00:06:20,390 --> 00:06:17,919 side from the u.s side 98 00:06:22,550 --> 00:06:20,400 and about the maybe common programs that 99 00:06:27,350 --> 00:06:22,560 you have with the russian side i mean in 100 00:06:31,350 --> 00:06:29,909 same question for scott kelly when the 101 00:06:32,870 --> 00:06:31,360 west side 102 00:06:36,469 --> 00:06:32,880 is planning 103 00:06:38,469 --> 00:06:36,479 its experiment program are there any 104 00:06:40,710 --> 00:06:38,479 joint common experiments with the 105 00:06:42,309 --> 00:06:40,720 russian side for example life sciences 106 00:06:45,590 --> 00:06:42,319 experiments 107 00:06:47,749 --> 00:06:45,600 in most cases investigating how 108 00:06:50,629 --> 00:06:47,759 we can apply people 109 00:06:53,270 --> 00:06:50,639 in long duration space flight 110 00:06:55,430 --> 00:06:53,280 safely so eventually we go 111 00:06:57,189 --> 00:06:55,440 on to mars or you know somewhere else in 112 00:06:59,510 --> 00:06:57,199 the solar system 113 00:07:04,230 --> 00:06:59,520 we also have 114 00:07:06,870 --> 00:07:04,240 basic science type experiments in uh 115 00:07:08,309 --> 00:07:06,880 fluid dynamics physics material 116 00:07:10,150 --> 00:07:08,319 processing 117 00:07:12,390 --> 00:07:10,160 and then 118 00:07:13,830 --> 00:07:12,400 we have 119 00:07:16,710 --> 00:07:13,840 experiments that involve you know 120 00:07:18,550 --> 00:07:16,720 observing the earth 121 00:07:19,749 --> 00:07:18,560 most of them are not uh 122 00:07:21,830 --> 00:07:19,759 you know 123 00:07:23,110 --> 00:07:21,840 types that are joined between the us and 124 00:07:25,430 --> 00:07:23,120 the right side although i think there 125 00:07:27,589 --> 00:07:25,440 might be a few especially when it 126 00:07:29,270 --> 00:07:27,599 comes to like human subjects 127 00:07:31,110 --> 00:07:29,280 i'm not sure if we're 128 00:07:33,029 --> 00:07:31,120 doing that here on this flight but i 129 00:07:34,469 --> 00:07:33,039 know we have in the past 130 00:07:36,469 --> 00:07:34,479 um 131 00:07:39,189 --> 00:07:36,479 you know unfortunately now a lot of the 132 00:07:40,790 --> 00:07:39,199 operations we do on board have 133 00:07:42,870 --> 00:07:40,800 kind of uh 134 00:07:46,469 --> 00:07:42,880 turned into what's called segmented ops 135 00:07:47,909 --> 00:07:46,479 so the russian uh program is executing 136 00:07:52,309 --> 00:07:47,919 their program on their side and then the 137 00:07:58,469 --> 00:07:55,510 occasionally we help each other out but 138 00:07:59,510 --> 00:07:58,479 when it's timeline but not 139 00:08:00,469 --> 00:07:59,520 you know there's not a whole lot of 140 00:08:07,110 --> 00:08:00,479 joint 141 00:08:10,550 --> 00:08:09,510 a question in the same vein regarding 142 00:08:12,950 --> 00:08:10,560 science 143 00:08:14,790 --> 00:08:12,960 uh alexander you have already done some 144 00:08:16,629 --> 00:08:14,800 experiments on both the station but i 145 00:08:17,830 --> 00:08:16,639 have a few experiments in the area of 146 00:08:20,390 --> 00:08:17,840 physics 147 00:08:24,710 --> 00:08:20,400 a plasma crystal for example now i have 148 00:08:29,110 --> 00:08:25,749 so 149 00:08:30,869 --> 00:08:29,120 what scientific experiments you prefer 150 00:08:34,630 --> 00:08:30,879 we are going to do 151 00:08:37,430 --> 00:08:34,640 and uh if you are going to have a few 152 00:08:38,709 --> 00:08:37,440 external vehicle activities 153 00:08:40,550 --> 00:08:38,719 do you have 154 00:08:46,870 --> 00:08:40,560 some specific tasks and what do you 155 00:08:50,230 --> 00:08:48,310 plasma crystal 156 00:08:52,150 --> 00:08:50,240 is of interest to me 157 00:08:54,710 --> 00:08:52,160 because it is a very beautiful 158 00:08:56,790 --> 00:08:54,720 experiment by myself so 159 00:08:57,910 --> 00:08:56,800 the topic of research is very 160 00:08:59,190 --> 00:08:57,920 interesting 161 00:09:01,190 --> 00:08:59,200 and it's uh 162 00:09:04,150 --> 00:09:01,200 i feel very close to it 163 00:09:06,310 --> 00:09:04,160 because i know people who actually had 164 00:09:08,870 --> 00:09:06,320 have this research in mind 165 00:09:09,990 --> 00:09:08,880 and a few of them graduated from the 166 00:09:13,590 --> 00:09:10,000 same 167 00:09:16,550 --> 00:09:15,269 but i would say they sent this 168 00:09:18,550 --> 00:09:16,560 experiment 169 00:09:20,949 --> 00:09:18,560 as uh 170 00:09:23,430 --> 00:09:20,959 it requires lots of effort 171 00:09:24,630 --> 00:09:23,440 and uh the cosmonaut is not really the 172 00:09:26,310 --> 00:09:24,640 person who 173 00:09:28,870 --> 00:09:26,320 conducts experiment per se it's more 174 00:09:30,949 --> 00:09:28,880 like setting up the experiment 175 00:09:32,710 --> 00:09:30,959 and the main thing is 176 00:09:34,790 --> 00:09:32,720 analyzing the results 177 00:09:37,030 --> 00:09:34,800 and uh probably 178 00:09:39,030 --> 00:09:37,040 modifying the direction of this 179 00:09:40,470 --> 00:09:39,040 experiment and all of this is done on 180 00:09:41,190 --> 00:09:40,480 the ground 181 00:09:46,630 --> 00:09:41,200 so 182 00:09:47,990 --> 00:09:46,640 on the other hand it's 183 00:09:49,750 --> 00:09:48,000 those people who might know very well 184 00:09:51,030 --> 00:09:49,760 who deal with this experiment and on the 185 00:09:52,790 --> 00:09:51,040 other hand 186 00:09:55,350 --> 00:09:52,800 my personal 187 00:09:57,910 --> 00:09:55,360 involvement is somewhat limited 188 00:09:59,750 --> 00:09:57,920 but what i do like is experiments in the 189 00:10:02,389 --> 00:09:59,760 geophysics 190 00:10:04,550 --> 00:10:02,399 investigating doing research 191 00:10:07,430 --> 00:10:04,560 as far as the earth goes 192 00:10:09,350 --> 00:10:07,440 and uh there is a huge field you can 193 00:10:11,750 --> 00:10:09,360 experiment with 194 00:10:15,990 --> 00:10:11,760 so if you really ask me i'm going to 195 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,670 what do you think 196 00:10:24,790 --> 00:10:21,829 i don't think i can talk about my 197 00:10:26,870 --> 00:10:24,800 preferences right now 198 00:10:39,750 --> 00:10:26,880 as regarding evas 199 00:10:46,470 --> 00:10:43,350 mounting a certain tissues and materials 200 00:10:48,310 --> 00:10:46,480 biomaterials which will be exposed to 201 00:10:49,350 --> 00:10:48,320 open space 202 00:10:51,829 --> 00:10:49,360 as well as 203 00:10:55,110 --> 00:10:51,839 new experiments and new hardware 204 00:10:57,509 --> 00:10:55,120 monitoring the surface of the earth 205 00:11:02,870 --> 00:11:00,310 following the processes that go in uh in 206 00:11:12,150 --> 00:11:02,880 the earth atmosphere and checking out 207 00:11:16,069 --> 00:11:14,389 another question 208 00:11:18,710 --> 00:11:16,079 you've had two flights on board the 209 00:11:20,790 --> 00:11:18,720 space shuttle 210 00:11:22,550 --> 00:11:20,800 uh now you're going to fly 211 00:11:24,550 --> 00:11:22,560 this new way 212 00:11:26,949 --> 00:11:24,560 is there any difference between the way 213 00:11:29,190 --> 00:11:26,959 you did it when on board the shuttle and 214 00:11:37,990 --> 00:11:29,200 the way your band prepares one flying 215 00:11:44,790 --> 00:11:39,910 in some ways 216 00:11:47,030 --> 00:11:44,800 because you you know first learn how to 217 00:11:49,750 --> 00:11:47,040 systems operate and then you 218 00:11:53,110 --> 00:11:49,760 uh work up to doing 219 00:11:55,750 --> 00:11:53,120 malfunctions and single systems and then 220 00:11:58,150 --> 00:11:56,870 systems 221 00:11:59,670 --> 00:11:58,160 um 222 00:12:00,949 --> 00:11:59,680 you know the vehicles are obviously much 223 00:12:03,110 --> 00:12:00,959 different and they're designed to do 224 00:12:05,110 --> 00:12:03,120 different things 225 00:12:06,550 --> 00:12:05,120 as a 226 00:12:09,990 --> 00:12:06,560 you know 227 00:12:11,990 --> 00:12:10,000 diverse mechanical performance 228 00:12:13,590 --> 00:12:12,000 you know it does 229 00:12:15,750 --> 00:12:13,600 you know very well carries people to 230 00:12:17,509 --> 00:12:15,760 orbit into the space station so from a 231 00:12:19,030 --> 00:12:17,519 mission perspective the training is 232 00:12:21,430 --> 00:12:19,040 somewhat different but 233 00:12:34,069 --> 00:12:21,440 you know same philosophies for ascent 234 00:12:37,590 --> 00:12:35,670 the training in its 235 00:12:40,069 --> 00:12:37,600 basics is the same 236 00:12:42,710 --> 00:12:40,079 first we learn about the systems then we 237 00:12:44,389 --> 00:12:42,720 learn about how the systems operate in 238 00:12:47,509 --> 00:12:44,399 optimal situations 239 00:12:49,030 --> 00:12:47,519 how they operate jointly 240 00:12:53,990 --> 00:12:49,040 as a an 241 00:12:58,870 --> 00:12:55,509 the service vehicle is performing its 242 00:13:01,350 --> 00:12:58,880 function delivering crew and cargo 243 00:13:02,790 --> 00:13:01,360 attention to detail that we have in the 244 00:13:04,949 --> 00:13:02,800 shuttle is 245 00:13:05,590 --> 00:13:04,959 doing the sleeves 246 00:13:07,269 --> 00:13:05,600 on my uh 247 00:13:10,710 --> 00:13:07,279 shuttle flights i was a pilot in the 248 00:13:12,150 --> 00:13:10,720 commander's mission i'll be in a 249 00:13:14,069 --> 00:13:12,160 less of a 250 00:13:18,310 --> 00:13:14,079 significant role 251 00:13:24,150 --> 00:13:21,750 one more question russian space 252 00:13:25,829 --> 00:13:24,160 this is actually testing a new type of 253 00:13:27,829 --> 00:13:25,839 the service vehicle are there any 254 00:13:41,509 --> 00:13:27,839 differences 255 00:13:45,269 --> 00:13:44,069 to some extent this is a modified 256 00:13:51,750 --> 00:13:45,279 vehicle 257 00:13:54,470 --> 00:13:51,760 modified systems 258 00:13:56,710 --> 00:13:54,480 two systems basically have been modified 259 00:13:59,350 --> 00:13:56,720 this is the 260 00:14:00,870 --> 00:13:59,360 the system of 261 00:14:05,189 --> 00:14:00,880 performing 262 00:14:07,430 --> 00:14:05,199 movement yeah and uh we have a new ombud 263 00:14:13,430 --> 00:14:07,440 equipment which provides for 264 00:14:16,629 --> 00:14:15,509 this vehicle is kind of a test vehicle 265 00:14:18,710 --> 00:14:16,639 to show 266 00:14:20,389 --> 00:14:18,720 how this new equipment 267 00:14:21,990 --> 00:14:20,399 will work and whether it's worth 268 00:14:23,030 --> 00:14:22,000 installing it on all the subsequent 269 00:14:26,629 --> 00:14:23,040 vehicles 270 00:14:30,389 --> 00:14:26,639 and next is a new telemetry system 271 00:14:32,069 --> 00:14:30,399 which provides for building the right 272 00:14:34,389 --> 00:14:32,079 computer systems and computer 273 00:14:36,629 --> 00:14:34,399 calculations 274 00:14:38,629 --> 00:14:36,639 all the other modifications and all the 275 00:14:40,629 --> 00:14:38,639 other systems 276 00:14:41,910 --> 00:14:40,639 what they do they adapt themselves to 277 00:14:42,790 --> 00:14:41,920 these two 278 00:14:47,590 --> 00:14:42,800 main 279 00:14:52,150 --> 00:14:50,550 all in all the way we control the 280 00:14:52,870 --> 00:14:52,160 spacecraft 281 00:14:55,509 --> 00:14:52,880 we 282 00:14:57,110 --> 00:14:55,519 perform the algorithms are the same even 283 00:14:58,550 --> 00:14:57,120 though 284 00:15:00,550 --> 00:14:58,560 there have been some modifications there 285 00:15:03,670 --> 00:15:00,560 where we control the vehicle 286 00:15:05,189 --> 00:15:03,680 and uh as a result of our training i can 287 00:15:05,990 --> 00:15:05,199 see that 288 00:15:09,910 --> 00:15:06,000 it 289 00:15:12,389 --> 00:15:09,920 has become is more easier and uh simpler 290 00:15:14,230 --> 00:15:12,399 to perform a few maneuvers uh if we 291 00:15:16,629 --> 00:15:14,240 compare it to the old version of the 292 00:15:18,629 --> 00:15:16,639 vehicle but the rest or the real flight 293 00:15:21,030 --> 00:15:18,639 will tell us 294 00:15:22,230 --> 00:15:21,040 would you like this spacecraft there are 295 00:15:24,310 --> 00:15:22,240 certain 296 00:15:26,710 --> 00:15:24,320 rough points but 297 00:15:27,509 --> 00:15:26,720 this is what these modifications are for 298 00:15:38,710 --> 00:15:27,519 to 299 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:49,990 a new 300 00:15:55,509 --> 00:15:53,509 the results of my exams are satisfactory 301 00:15:57,829 --> 00:15:55,519 i don't think i need to tell you my 302 00:16:03,590 --> 00:15:57,839 grades but i will tell you that we all 303 00:16:07,350 --> 00:16:05,110 integrated training 304 00:16:09,670 --> 00:16:07,360 we did have this and 305 00:16:11,829 --> 00:16:09,680 we tested the equipment 306 00:16:14,389 --> 00:16:11,839 we were controlling the equipment for 307 00:16:15,670 --> 00:16:14,399 the spacecraft and the station and 308 00:16:17,509 --> 00:16:15,680 both crews 309 00:16:19,189 --> 00:16:17,519 have been allowed to 310 00:16:20,710 --> 00:16:19,199 go in for subsequent training and to 311 00:16:24,790 --> 00:16:20,720 finish this training 312 00:16:28,069 --> 00:16:26,870 and we just had the conclusion of the 313 00:16:30,069 --> 00:16:28,079 board 314 00:16:32,310 --> 00:16:30,079 uh of the commission which basically 315 00:16:33,990 --> 00:16:32,320 said the same 316 00:16:36,150 --> 00:16:34,000 that both crews 317 00:16:38,150 --> 00:16:36,160 are allowed to finish their training at 318 00:16:39,749 --> 00:16:38,160 the baikonur 319 00:16:41,749 --> 00:16:39,759 and i'd like to point out that our 320 00:16:46,310 --> 00:16:41,759 training is not done here at the center 321 00:16:49,430 --> 00:16:47,670 of the 322 00:16:55,670 --> 00:16:49,440 of this month when they will find out to 323 00:16:59,030 --> 00:16:57,269 they will be seeing their new soyuz 324 00:17:01,350 --> 00:16:59,040 vehicle and 325 00:17:04,150 --> 00:17:01,360 they will get final touches as regards 326 00:17:06,710 --> 00:17:04,160 the ascending experiments and what will 327 00:17:08,630 --> 00:17:06,720 be done when changing the crews on board 328 00:17:12,870 --> 00:17:08,640 the station they also receive the final 329 00:17:21,829 --> 00:17:12,880 data as far as the proof experiments go 330 00:17:26,309 --> 00:17:23,829 you've been in space for quite a long 331 00:17:38,310 --> 00:17:26,319 and i would like to know a few things 332 00:17:42,950 --> 00:17:41,510 are there any uh boundaries any borders 333 00:17:45,510 --> 00:17:42,960 on border stations between different 334 00:17:47,830 --> 00:17:45,520 segments how do you interact 335 00:17:51,190 --> 00:17:47,840 now we don't have any customers there i 336 00:17:55,590 --> 00:17:54,230 the only document which we have as a 337 00:17:57,830 --> 00:17:55,600 guideline at least the russian crew 338 00:18:00,549 --> 00:17:57,840 members is uh 339 00:18:05,909 --> 00:18:00,559 the id of a cosmonaut by the 340 00:18:05,919 --> 00:18:08,870 which is a 341 00:18:12,710 --> 00:18:11,110 representative of an international 342 00:18:14,310 --> 00:18:12,720 organization 343 00:18:16,549 --> 00:18:14,320 and this is something it was introduced 344 00:18:20,470 --> 00:18:16,559 for russian and soviet cosmonauts and 345 00:18:22,710 --> 00:18:20,480 this is a formal idea for space flights 346 00:18:24,470 --> 00:18:22,720 but we've never used it to 347 00:18:26,549 --> 00:18:24,480 fly into the segment of our partner 348 00:18:28,710 --> 00:18:26,559 because we all live together and even 349 00:18:31,110 --> 00:18:28,720 though we do work in separate segments 350 00:18:33,029 --> 00:18:31,120 in separate corners but as the previous 351 00:18:35,669 --> 00:18:33,039 crews said 352 00:18:39,270 --> 00:18:35,679 normally we have our meals together even 353 00:18:40,950 --> 00:18:39,280 though we do have two uh calories 354 00:18:43,510 --> 00:18:40,960 we always have 355 00:18:45,750 --> 00:18:43,520 our meals together 356 00:18:48,310 --> 00:18:45,760 this is a tradition we'll see what 357 00:18:49,590 --> 00:18:48,320 will occur between our two crews when we 358 00:18:50,710 --> 00:18:49,600 are there 359 00:18:53,909 --> 00:18:50,720 but i don't think there will be any 360 00:18:57,430 --> 00:18:55,110 i don't think 361 00:19:03,590 --> 00:18:57,440 it makes any sense to break these good 362 00:19:09,270 --> 00:19:07,270 nikolai borden is here and his uh 363 00:19:10,470 --> 00:19:09,280 representative of 364 00:19:12,950 --> 00:19:10,480 the 365 00:19:19,669 --> 00:19:12,960 of that space organization and uh 366 00:19:23,669 --> 00:19:22,710 first of all i'd like to congratulate 367 00:19:39,909 --> 00:19:23,679 the 368 00:19:42,630 --> 00:19:39,919 international astronautics organization 369 00:19:47,510 --> 00:19:45,110 the cosmonaut who is being trained for 370 00:19:55,909 --> 00:19:47,520 his first flight or her flight they're 371 00:19:59,350 --> 00:19:57,510 and this is 372 00:20:01,750 --> 00:19:59,360 his id 373 00:20:02,710 --> 00:20:01,760 number 131 374 00:20:04,950 --> 00:20:02,720 and 375 00:20:23,590 --> 00:20:04,960 it's my pleasure to 376 00:20:29,110 --> 00:20:26,149 and i don't know if he will use it to 377 00:20:32,230 --> 00:20:29,120 pass somewhere or not 378 00:20:34,230 --> 00:20:32,240 but this is something he will have 379 00:20:35,350 --> 00:20:34,240 for this time and for all the second 380 00:20:38,149 --> 00:20:35,360 flights 381 00:20:40,230 --> 00:20:38,159 that he will have 382 00:20:41,830 --> 00:20:40,240 our training for the first flight 383 00:20:44,070 --> 00:20:41,840 will be remembered very well by the 384 00:20:45,590 --> 00:20:44,080 cosmonaut and i do remember that before 385 00:20:48,070 --> 00:20:45,600 my first flight 386 00:20:50,390 --> 00:20:48,080 a long time ago also i was also given 387 00:20:51,830 --> 00:20:50,400 this id and 388 00:20:53,990 --> 00:20:51,840 i used to take it 389 00:20:56,390 --> 00:20:54,000 with me to all the second flights don't 390 00:20:58,870 --> 00:20:56,400 really need it to go anywhere 391 00:21:01,590 --> 00:20:58,880 but this idea is a tradition 392 00:21:05,270 --> 00:21:01,600 and this is probably something 393 00:21:09,990 --> 00:21:07,270 one of the possible scenarios in case of 394 00:21:12,390 --> 00:21:10,000 an off normal situation is an urgent 395 00:21:14,710 --> 00:21:12,400 egress 396 00:21:16,789 --> 00:21:14,720 and this idea is 397 00:21:18,710 --> 00:21:16,799 something that can show that you are not 398 00:21:20,310 --> 00:21:18,720 on the on the ground on the earth just 399 00:21:25,990 --> 00:21:20,320 out of the way but this is something 400 00:21:28,789 --> 00:21:27,669 all the distance that we've had so far 401 00:21:31,510 --> 00:21:28,799 have been 402 00:21:33,590 --> 00:21:31,520 monitored and under control more or less 403 00:21:35,669 --> 00:21:33,600 so we've never had a chance to make use 404 00:21:40,470 --> 00:21:35,679 of this idea but it's good to have it in 405 00:21:44,870 --> 00:21:42,390 and probably should continue as regards 406 00:21:47,510 --> 00:21:44,880 your question about going from one 407 00:21:49,110 --> 00:21:47,520 module to another 408 00:21:50,950 --> 00:21:49,120 yes in fact we're talking about 409 00:21:53,110 --> 00:21:50,960 segmented operations 410 00:21:55,830 --> 00:21:53,120 i'd like to underscore 411 00:21:57,510 --> 00:21:55,840 that these segment operations uh is 412 00:21:59,830 --> 00:21:57,520 something which is more related to 413 00:22:01,990 --> 00:21:59,840 planning operations that is that each 414 00:22:03,350 --> 00:22:02,000 control center is planning the work 415 00:22:04,710 --> 00:22:03,360 which has been done on each of the 416 00:22:06,390 --> 00:22:04,720 segments 417 00:22:07,830 --> 00:22:06,400 but uh 418 00:22:09,029 --> 00:22:07,840 as far as i remember 419 00:22:11,190 --> 00:22:09,039 even from 420 00:22:13,750 --> 00:22:11,200 the very first expeditions 421 00:22:16,230 --> 00:22:13,760 the crews the crew members are the main 422 00:22:17,909 --> 00:22:16,240 resource for all the experiments and for 423 00:22:20,390 --> 00:22:17,919 everything especially regarding of 424 00:22:21,190 --> 00:22:20,400 normal situations 425 00:22:22,789 --> 00:22:21,200 then 426 00:22:24,149 --> 00:22:22,799 the crew all the crew members are 427 00:22:26,710 --> 00:22:24,159 supposed to act 428 00:22:28,230 --> 00:22:26,720 as a single wholesome 429 00:22:29,590 --> 00:22:28,240 a single hoe 430 00:22:32,230 --> 00:22:29,600 and uh 431 00:22:34,470 --> 00:22:32,240 even though the segments are different 432 00:22:36,710 --> 00:22:34,480 and we have different voltage 433 00:22:39,270 --> 00:22:36,720 numbers in different segments does it 434 00:22:41,909 --> 00:22:39,280 not mean that the crew are supposed to 435 00:22:44,630 --> 00:22:41,919 use any ids to pass from one module to 436 00:22:45,990 --> 00:22:44,640 another module or if there are any 437 00:22:47,990 --> 00:22:46,000 any 438 00:23:01,029 --> 00:22:48,000 bars barring our entrance to another 439 00:23:05,350 --> 00:23:03,830 and the traditional uh wish of 440 00:23:14,390 --> 00:23:05,360 50 kilometers 441 00:23:17,990 --> 00:23:16,549 are there any rules spoken rules or 442 00:23:20,470 --> 00:23:18,000 unspoken rules 443 00:23:34,950 --> 00:23:20,480 that you you're all going to follow 444 00:23:39,270 --> 00:23:37,350 any outspoken conditions 445 00:23:42,230 --> 00:23:39,280 i think all the dishes that we have it's 446 00:23:43,909 --> 00:23:42,240 just uh support a normal life 447 00:23:46,070 --> 00:23:43,919 of course whenever we have a new crew 448 00:23:47,590 --> 00:23:46,080 everybody gathers and it's a welcoming 449 00:23:51,269 --> 00:23:47,600 ceremony 450 00:23:53,669 --> 00:23:51,279 this is something of a tradition 451 00:23:55,669 --> 00:23:53,679 and we always have we also have a 452 00:24:02,630 --> 00:23:55,679 predrill a pre-brief for security 453 00:24:11,510 --> 00:24:05,269 when they have uh the shuttle 454 00:24:14,870 --> 00:24:13,029 the shuttle relocates 455 00:24:29,830 --> 00:24:14,880 they're calling us so this is somewhat 456 00:24:32,390 --> 00:24:31,510 the ceremony of 457 00:24:34,630 --> 00:24:32,400 changing 458 00:24:36,549 --> 00:24:34,640 crews was very beautiful 459 00:24:38,149 --> 00:24:36,559 and the enthusiasts 460 00:24:39,350 --> 00:24:38,159 were watching us 461 00:24:41,190 --> 00:24:39,360 and it was 462 00:24:43,269 --> 00:24:41,200 very interesting to change the emblems 463 00:24:44,470 --> 00:24:43,279 and uh 464 00:24:56,390 --> 00:24:44,480 there's something 465 00:25:00,310 --> 00:24:57,750 and uh 466 00:25:13,430 --> 00:25:00,320 we've had these patches these symbols 467 00:25:18,549 --> 00:25:15,909 we're saying uh when uh 468 00:25:20,310 --> 00:25:18,559 we're talking about this ceremony this 469 00:25:21,750 --> 00:25:20,320 is something which 470 00:25:23,590 --> 00:25:21,760 has come from 471 00:25:25,510 --> 00:25:23,600 the navy 472 00:25:27,669 --> 00:25:25,520 when we ring the bell 473 00:25:28,950 --> 00:25:27,679 and uh when we have these patches and 474 00:25:36,549 --> 00:25:28,960 one way 475 00:25:41,110 --> 00:25:38,630 there we have had some crew members from 476 00:25:43,029 --> 00:25:41,120 the navy onboard the station 477 00:25:44,070 --> 00:25:43,039 and those who have something unable to 478 00:25:46,710 --> 00:25:44,080 do 479 00:25:48,789 --> 00:25:46,720 they always follow this tradition of the 480 00:25:51,110 --> 00:25:48,799 new command arriving 481 00:25:53,750 --> 00:25:51,120 to the spacecraft 482 00:25:55,430 --> 00:25:53,760 or the craft for that matter 483 00:25:57,110 --> 00:25:55,440 another question 484 00:26:04,950 --> 00:25:57,120 not forgotten the flight but regarding 485 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:16,230 it has been announced 486 00:26:20,950 --> 00:26:18,070 after the first flight of the crew 487 00:26:23,110 --> 00:26:20,960 member is not going to have 488 00:26:24,710 --> 00:26:23,120 the official uh 489 00:26:26,149 --> 00:26:24,720 name of 490 00:26:28,950 --> 00:26:26,159 the hero of the russian federation they 491 00:26:30,789 --> 00:26:28,960 will have some medals but not uh the 492 00:26:34,310 --> 00:26:30,799 title of the hero 493 00:26:51,590 --> 00:26:35,269 uh 494 00:26:56,310 --> 00:26:53,990 i think after our first expedition i 495 00:26:58,630 --> 00:26:56,320 think we received our awards only one 496 00:27:00,310 --> 00:26:58,640 year after but those who have in the 497 00:27:02,630 --> 00:27:00,320 military receive their awards sooner 498 00:27:04,789 --> 00:27:02,640 than those who are civilians 499 00:27:08,149 --> 00:27:04,799 that's true sometimes 500 00:27:12,310 --> 00:27:09,669 the paper saying that they're going to 501 00:27:14,789 --> 00:27:12,320 be awarded something was actually done 502 00:27:17,750 --> 00:27:14,799 on the uh on the day of the landing 503 00:27:21,590 --> 00:27:17,760 but then some rules uh changed and uh 504 00:27:23,190 --> 00:27:21,600 the rules for those the process of 505 00:27:24,549 --> 00:27:23,200 the paperwork 506 00:27:26,230 --> 00:27:24,559 were separate 507 00:27:27,669 --> 00:27:26,240 one way for the military one way for 508 00:27:31,029 --> 00:27:27,679 civilians 509 00:27:33,110 --> 00:27:31,039 and we've had such thing such 510 00:27:34,870 --> 00:27:33,120 situations when there are two people 511 00:27:36,870 --> 00:27:34,880 land at the same time but one was on the 512 00:27:40,149 --> 00:27:36,880 other one was the military and they 513 00:27:41,590 --> 00:27:40,159 received their awards at different times 514 00:27:44,310 --> 00:27:41,600 but more or less this was done 515 00:27:46,630 --> 00:27:44,320 simultaneously 516 00:27:49,029 --> 00:27:46,640 but because of the recent changes in the 517 00:27:50,870 --> 00:27:49,039 ministry of the defense 518 00:27:53,510 --> 00:27:50,880 again this process of doing the 519 00:27:55,350 --> 00:27:53,520 paperwork has been modified 520 00:27:57,430 --> 00:27:55,360 and 521 00:27:59,669 --> 00:27:57,440 it turned out that the way the paperwork 522 00:28:00,830 --> 00:27:59,679 for the military personnel 523 00:28:03,510 --> 00:28:00,840 was 524 00:28:05,350 --> 00:28:03,520 uh processed 525 00:28:07,830 --> 00:28:05,360 it takes longer for those documents than 526 00:28:09,669 --> 00:28:07,840 for surveillance and maxim is in the 527 00:28:11,590 --> 00:28:09,679 military so 528 00:28:14,230 --> 00:28:11,600 these documents are still 529 00:28:16,789 --> 00:28:14,240 in the pipeline 530 00:28:19,029 --> 00:28:16,799 i've never seen such a paper signed by 531 00:28:21,269 --> 00:28:19,039 our president understand they showed on 532 00:28:23,110 --> 00:28:21,279 tv recently 533 00:28:24,789 --> 00:28:23,120 well i don't have this information yet 534 00:28:27,190 --> 00:28:24,799 so once i do have some facts we can 535 00:28:29,350 --> 00:28:27,200 discuss this not earlier 536 00:28:30,470 --> 00:28:29,360 i don't have three evas 537 00:28:32,389 --> 00:28:30,480 can you 538 00:28:41,350 --> 00:28:32,399 say something about what you will be 539 00:28:45,269 --> 00:28:43,909 i think something like this has already 540 00:28:47,990 --> 00:28:45,279 been asked 541 00:28:51,510 --> 00:28:48,000 we have three evas 542 00:28:58,230 --> 00:28:51,520 this is mostly regarding installation 543 00:29:01,990 --> 00:28:59,830 my research 544 00:29:05,110 --> 00:29:02,000 will be dealing with the 545 00:29:07,590 --> 00:29:05,120 atmosphere of our planet 546 00:29:09,590 --> 00:29:07,600 and whether surveying the surface of the 547 00:29:13,029 --> 00:29:09,600 earth 548 00:29:15,350 --> 00:29:13,039 okay then another question 549 00:29:16,230 --> 00:29:15,360 during your training you've learned each 550 00:29:17,350 --> 00:29:16,240 other 551 00:29:18,870 --> 00:29:17,360 well enough 552 00:29:38,230 --> 00:29:18,880 could you each could each of you say 553 00:29:41,830 --> 00:29:39,909 and i have known each other for quite a 554 00:29:43,590 --> 00:29:41,840 long time it's not the first time that 555 00:29:45,430 --> 00:29:43,600 we've been together 556 00:29:49,430 --> 00:29:45,440 we're together as crew members of 557 00:29:54,549 --> 00:29:50,630 and 558 00:29:58,870 --> 00:29:54,559 that's back then when they 559 00:30:03,190 --> 00:30:00,630 but now we actually 560 00:30:10,389 --> 00:30:03,200 dig different where now we know each 561 00:30:13,269 --> 00:30:11,190 so 562 00:30:15,269 --> 00:30:13,279 back then he was a commander and he had 563 00:30:19,830 --> 00:30:15,279 a long duration flight so he's been a 564 00:30:24,789 --> 00:30:20,830 he's very 565 00:30:25,830 --> 00:30:24,799 professional very qualified this is 566 00:30:28,470 --> 00:30:25,840 probably 567 00:30:30,470 --> 00:30:28,480 any pilot who is in the navy or any navy 568 00:30:33,269 --> 00:30:30,480 officer 569 00:30:34,310 --> 00:30:33,279 and it's very easy to work with him and 570 00:30:37,590 --> 00:30:34,320 i think 571 00:30:40,630 --> 00:30:37,600 our mutual understanding is very good 572 00:30:42,389 --> 00:30:40,640 and we have everything 573 00:30:47,430 --> 00:30:42,399 we have everything clear between us as 574 00:30:52,389 --> 00:30:49,350 i haven't been working with him for such 575 00:30:54,070 --> 00:30:52,399 a long time as i have with scott 576 00:30:55,430 --> 00:30:54,080 but i've been observing him for quite a 577 00:31:01,110 --> 00:30:55,440 long time and 578 00:31:06,950 --> 00:31:05,190 everything that i've seen so far 579 00:31:08,789 --> 00:31:06,960 showed to me that 580 00:31:10,149 --> 00:31:08,799 he is available on the professional crew 581 00:31:13,269 --> 00:31:10,159 member and 582 00:31:15,110 --> 00:31:13,279 he's a very good friend too 583 00:31:16,870 --> 00:31:15,120 so it turned out that 584 00:31:17,990 --> 00:31:16,880 now we're together 585 00:31:19,990 --> 00:31:18,000 and 586 00:31:21,430 --> 00:31:20,000 again this training here has been very 587 00:31:22,950 --> 00:31:21,440 successful 588 00:31:26,149 --> 00:31:22,960 and i don't think you're going to have 589 00:31:35,110 --> 00:31:27,669 and it's very easy for me to work with 590 00:31:39,990 --> 00:31:38,149 okay then what about your other friends 591 00:31:41,909 --> 00:31:40,000 it's more like a psychological 592 00:31:43,190 --> 00:31:41,919 experiment when you ask somebody to tell 593 00:31:44,789 --> 00:31:43,200 something about 594 00:31:58,870 --> 00:31:44,799 the colleagues or the friends who are 595 00:32:09,750 --> 00:32:00,950 a big chunk of luck for me 596 00:32:14,789 --> 00:32:11,830 and actually i'm the only one on our 597 00:32:16,870 --> 00:32:14,799 crew who on our team who hasn't had 598 00:32:19,430 --> 00:32:16,880 an experience of 599 00:32:21,350 --> 00:32:19,440 a space flight 600 00:32:23,029 --> 00:32:21,360 and i'm sure my friends will 601 00:32:24,549 --> 00:32:23,039 tell me lots of new information they'll 602 00:32:25,909 --> 00:32:24,559 show me lots of new things and they'll 603 00:32:30,310 --> 00:32:25,919 learn a lot 604 00:32:34,950 --> 00:32:32,789 we support each other all the time and i 605 00:32:38,470 --> 00:32:34,960 think that our joint work will be very 606 00:32:43,430 --> 00:32:41,190 and i have similar 607 00:32:46,630 --> 00:32:43,440 you know personalities that were not 608 00:32:48,549 --> 00:32:46,640 very easily excitable and 609 00:32:51,350 --> 00:32:48,559 you know kind of deal with things in a 610 00:32:52,230 --> 00:32:51,360 very kind of calm and quiet way so i 611 00:32:55,110 --> 00:32:52,240 think 612 00:33:00,789 --> 00:32:58,710 very good working relationship um 613 00:33:03,110 --> 00:33:00,799 because we kind of 614 00:33:19,669 --> 00:33:03,120 have i think the same temperament all 615 00:33:31,029 --> 00:33:21,750 and i think that's something that we all 616 00:33:31,039 --> 00:33:43,110 yes 617 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:46,870 now that the shuttles are retiring 618 00:33:49,430 --> 00:33:47,669 uh 619 00:33:51,350 --> 00:33:49,440 the russian federation is going to have 620 00:33:53,590 --> 00:33:51,360 more flights than ever do you think 621 00:33:55,190 --> 00:33:53,600 crash will cope russia is already coping 622 00:33:57,350 --> 00:33:55,200 with this 623 00:34:04,950 --> 00:33:57,360 i'd like to underscore that 624 00:34:09,829 --> 00:34:08,149 when the shuttles did bring some uh 625 00:34:11,510 --> 00:34:09,839 international space station crew members 626 00:34:13,990 --> 00:34:11,520 to the station but 627 00:34:15,909 --> 00:34:14,000 it's been some time that uh 628 00:34:17,430 --> 00:34:15,919 international space station crew members 629 00:34:19,750 --> 00:34:17,440 are taken to the station on both the 630 00:34:21,190 --> 00:34:19,760 service vehicles 631 00:34:23,270 --> 00:34:21,200 so i don't really understand the 632 00:34:25,030 --> 00:34:23,280 question mark in your question 633 00:34:26,389 --> 00:34:25,040 what you're asking is already been done 634 00:34:27,990 --> 00:34:26,399 has already been done 635 00:34:29,750 --> 00:34:28,000 and russia is already providing for the 636 00:34:31,190 --> 00:34:29,760 security and for the safety of the crew 637 00:34:32,790 --> 00:34:31,200 members and 638 00:34:37,349 --> 00:34:32,800 for delivering crew members to the 639 00:34:41,109 --> 00:34:38,069 so 640 00:34:43,750 --> 00:34:41,119 i would rather say that 641 00:34:45,589 --> 00:34:43,760 with the shuttle being retired 642 00:34:47,589 --> 00:34:45,599 we are 643 00:34:50,550 --> 00:34:47,599 actually 644 00:34:55,430 --> 00:34:50,560 not going to have any more redundancy 645 00:34:58,390 --> 00:34:56,389 but 646 00:34:59,349 --> 00:34:58,400 i don't think that we're going to have 647 00:35:06,230 --> 00:34:59,359 any 648 00:35:06,240 --> 00:35:11,349 what about delivering cargo items 649 00:35:17,190 --> 00:35:13,829 the service vehicles do deliver some 650 00:35:20,470 --> 00:35:17,200 cargo items and it's probably between 40 651 00:35:22,470 --> 00:35:20,480 and 70 kilograms of equipment are for 652 00:35:24,630 --> 00:35:22,480 scientific experiments 653 00:35:25,910 --> 00:35:24,640 as far as the shuttle goes 654 00:35:27,109 --> 00:35:25,920 its main 655 00:35:36,950 --> 00:35:27,119 objective 656 00:35:40,950 --> 00:35:38,310 even 657 00:35:41,990 --> 00:35:40,960 the small russian modules like the mri 658 00:35:43,510 --> 00:35:42,000 modules 659 00:35:45,910 --> 00:35:43,520 they had 660 00:35:47,510 --> 00:35:45,920 their own propulsion system and they 661 00:35:50,870 --> 00:35:47,520 could perform some approach to the 662 00:35:52,630 --> 00:35:50,880 station as far as the vs models go 663 00:35:55,430 --> 00:35:52,640 the shuttles were necessary because the 664 00:35:59,349 --> 00:35:55,440 us models did not have this 665 00:36:01,190 --> 00:35:59,359 propulsion system of their own 666 00:36:06,310 --> 00:36:01,200 this was something that the assad needed 667 00:36:10,470 --> 00:36:08,230 now i have a new module that will uh 668 00:36:11,349 --> 00:36:10,480 serve as a certain warehouse and border 669 00:36:13,030 --> 00:36:11,359 station 670 00:36:14,710 --> 00:36:13,040 and we're not going to have any more 671 00:36:17,750 --> 00:36:14,720 modules like this 672 00:36:18,790 --> 00:36:17,760 so i don't really see any need in an 673 00:36:20,390 --> 00:36:18,800 orbiter 674 00:36:22,390 --> 00:36:20,400 per se as 675 00:36:23,270 --> 00:36:22,400 a way for delivering 676 00:36:25,829 --> 00:36:23,280 such 677 00:36:27,510 --> 00:36:25,839 bulky cargo 678 00:36:29,829 --> 00:36:27,520 then the scientific 679 00:36:33,589 --> 00:36:29,839 program is being changed right now and 680 00:36:34,710 --> 00:36:33,599 there are more and more uh cases when 681 00:36:37,670 --> 00:36:34,720 we deliver scientific 682 00:36:40,310 --> 00:36:37,680 evidence-scientific data not as physical 683 00:36:42,710 --> 00:36:40,320 objects but rather as data to the ground 684 00:36:47,829 --> 00:36:42,720 so i don't really need this physical 685 00:36:50,710 --> 00:36:49,190 and then 686 00:36:51,829 --> 00:36:50,720 we have 687 00:36:54,790 --> 00:36:51,839 new 688 00:36:57,430 --> 00:36:54,800 cargo vehicles and there are also 689 00:36:59,670 --> 00:36:57,440 new commercial projects as far as 690 00:37:03,910 --> 00:36:59,680 delivering objects to the station and 691 00:37:05,750 --> 00:37:04,790 so 692 00:37:07,750 --> 00:37:05,760 indeed 693 00:37:10,069 --> 00:37:07,760 yes i will probably there will probably 694 00:37:11,990 --> 00:37:10,079 be a period when we can physically bring 695 00:37:14,069 --> 00:37:12,000 cargo items back only on the service 696 00:37:15,750 --> 00:37:14,079 vehicles 697 00:37:18,150 --> 00:37:15,760 but this will only be a limited period 698 00:37:20,470 --> 00:37:18,160 of time but then in the future 699 00:37:21,670 --> 00:37:20,480 this possibility will expand 700 00:37:24,550 --> 00:37:21,680 we'll be also developing a new 701 00:37:25,349 --> 00:37:24,560 generation vehicle in russia that will 702 00:37:27,349 --> 00:37:25,359 have 703 00:37:30,390 --> 00:37:27,359 a bigger volume and bigger cargo 704 00:37:35,109 --> 00:37:32,790 also take an account that we still have 705 00:37:36,790 --> 00:37:35,119 the usa developing 706 00:37:39,270 --> 00:37:36,800 its programs and will have commercial 707 00:37:40,470 --> 00:37:39,280 vehicles this will 708 00:37:43,030 --> 00:37:40,480 not be 709 00:37:46,950 --> 00:37:43,040 something of a 710 00:37:51,030 --> 00:37:48,630 we don't have a 711 00:37:53,030 --> 00:37:51,040 full-fledged internet 712 00:37:55,109 --> 00:37:53,040 neither on the russian segment or on the 713 00:37:57,109 --> 00:37:55,119 us segment 714 00:37:59,510 --> 00:37:57,119 you said something that uh now we have 715 00:38:00,710 --> 00:37:59,520 more data been delivered to the ground 716 00:38:02,390 --> 00:38:00,720 well 717 00:38:04,470 --> 00:38:02,400 doesn't mean that 718 00:38:05,589 --> 00:38:04,480 we're constantly 719 00:38:07,430 --> 00:38:05,599 working 720 00:38:11,349 --> 00:38:07,440 on the network 721 00:38:16,870 --> 00:38:14,710 providing pictures on a constant way to 722 00:38:18,790 --> 00:38:16,880 the station so it's not really being in 723 00:38:21,349 --> 00:38:18,800 the network 724 00:38:24,470 --> 00:38:21,359 yes the us segment 725 00:38:29,109 --> 00:38:24,480 data channels are more 726 00:38:32,550 --> 00:38:31,589 there are still some systems which 727 00:38:38,310 --> 00:38:32,560 support 728 00:38:41,510 --> 00:38:40,550 the channels have been expanded 729 00:38:44,150 --> 00:38:41,520 and 730 00:38:47,349 --> 00:38:44,160 in some way both segments support each 731 00:38:50,230 --> 00:38:49,349 as a result of the experiments that 732 00:38:52,470 --> 00:38:50,240 which 733 00:38:54,790 --> 00:38:52,480 will be conducted will probably be 734 00:39:02,710 --> 00:38:54,800 expanding russian segment capabilities 735 00:39:05,990 --> 00:39:04,630 one of the main steps would be using the 736 00:39:08,069 --> 00:39:06,000 new satellite 737 00:39:09,829 --> 00:39:08,079 similar to what we used to have on the 738 00:39:11,270 --> 00:39:09,839 onboard the merge station 739 00:39:15,510 --> 00:39:11,280 and once we have the satellites we'll 740 00:39:19,589 --> 00:39:17,589 but this is not really a question to us 741 00:39:21,910 --> 00:39:19,599 who are in the men's space flight 742 00:39:24,310 --> 00:39:21,920 program this is to a question to other 743 00:39:26,710 --> 00:39:24,320 specialists 744 00:39:32,710 --> 00:39:26,720 but this sandwich will be developed and 745 00:39:40,390 --> 00:39:34,150 there was one more question if i 746 00:39:44,310 --> 00:39:42,550 can you compare the training you receive 747 00:39:46,230 --> 00:39:44,320 in moscow and in houston are there any 748 00:39:48,790 --> 00:39:46,240 differences and any difficulties any 749 00:39:50,950 --> 00:39:48,800 comments i think uh 750 00:39:51,750 --> 00:39:50,960 publishers 751 00:39:53,109 --> 00:39:51,760 um 752 00:39:54,470 --> 00:39:53,119 it's a good question thank you the 753 00:40:02,390 --> 00:39:54,480 training is very similar in a lot of 754 00:40:06,630 --> 00:40:04,470 but what i'll add 755 00:40:09,109 --> 00:40:06,640 is in the same way we train in the 756 00:40:11,349 --> 00:40:09,119 united states where we rely on the 757 00:40:12,790 --> 00:40:11,359 experienced astronauts to learn from 758 00:40:25,829 --> 00:40:12,800 from their experience and previous 759 00:40:30,790 --> 00:40:28,710 uh we do the same thing here um a few 760 00:40:33,430 --> 00:40:30,800 years ago i had the opportunity to fly 761 00:40:35,349 --> 00:40:33,440 to the space station and when we opened 762 00:40:48,630 --> 00:40:35,359 up the hatch these two guys smiling 763 00:40:51,829 --> 00:40:49,910 and we had a very challenging 764 00:40:53,750 --> 00:40:51,839 construction mission in and i was 765 00:40:55,829 --> 00:40:53,760 absolutely amazed at how talented they 766 00:40:57,990 --> 00:40:55,839 were how much help they gave us 767 00:40:59,270 --> 00:40:58,000 and it i experienced the same thing here 768 00:41:01,270 --> 00:40:59,280 going through the 769 00:41:02,950 --> 00:41:01,280 soyuz and the russian segment uh 770 00:41:14,150 --> 00:41:02,960 training with the backup current that 771 00:41:19,589 --> 00:41:17,589 and in addition to relying on our fellow 772 00:41:20,870 --> 00:41:19,599 crewmates just 773 00:41:22,630 --> 00:41:20,880 as in the united states when the 774 00:41:24,790 --> 00:41:22,640 instructors are very dedicated and very 775 00:41:26,950 --> 00:41:24,800 professional and really believe in what 776 00:41:29,109 --> 00:41:26,960 they're doing it's the same thing here i 777 00:41:31,270 --> 00:41:29,119 was very very impressed with the 778 00:41:33,270 --> 00:41:31,280 with the dedication of the instructors 779 00:41:34,950 --> 00:41:33,280 that worked very hard and made many 780 00:41:59,990 --> 00:41:34,960 sacrifices to ensure that we're ready 781 00:42:28,950 --> 00:42:02,630 this will be the last one if you don't 782 00:42:46,470 --> 00:42:32,790 no it's a much different uh mission and 783 00:42:46,480 --> 00:43:00,550 um 784 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:26,630 certain city 785 00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:47,750 okay 786 00:43:47,760 --> 00:44:06,069 oh 787 00:44:06,079 --> 00:44:33,910 on to the canada 788 00:44:33,920 -->
