1
00:00:14,310 --> 00:00:12,709
so here we are at the world's largest

2
00:00:16,390 --> 00:00:14,320
indoor pool

3
00:00:18,470 --> 00:00:16,400
it is uh yeah it's true we think i'm

4
00:00:19,830 --> 00:00:18,480
making this stuff up here come on yes i

5
00:00:21,990 --> 00:00:19,840
think it is

6
00:00:24,710 --> 00:00:22,000
biggest pool indoor pool they don't have

7
00:00:27,670 --> 00:00:24,720
like natatoriums

8
00:00:28,830 --> 00:00:27,680
what is a natatorium where people swim

9
00:00:30,790 --> 00:00:28,840
is that what you

10
00:00:33,110 --> 00:00:30,800
mean isn't your kid

11
00:00:36,870 --> 00:00:33,120
yes i think it comes from the word nata

12
00:00:38,950 --> 00:00:36,880
no tare which means to swim in uh

13
00:00:41,110 --> 00:00:38,960
in what in in an italian

14
00:00:42,950 --> 00:00:41,120
anyway how do we get on this in

15
00:00:44,630 --> 00:00:42,960
natatorium yes i think don't when you're

16
00:00:46,310 --> 00:00:44,640
filming me don't make you want to get on

17
00:00:47,830 --> 00:00:46,320
this side you don't fall in the water

18
00:00:49,750 --> 00:00:47,840
there's a one rule we have here at the

19
00:00:51,350 --> 00:00:49,760
end at the neutral buoyancy lab nbls

20
00:00:53,430 --> 00:00:51,360
don't fall in the water other than that

21
00:00:55,510 --> 00:00:53,440
you can do pretty much whatever you want

22
00:00:57,189 --> 00:00:55,520
but no it is jim it is the largest

23
00:00:58,630 --> 00:00:57,199
indoor swimming pool

24
00:01:00,069 --> 00:00:58,640
um

25
00:01:02,229 --> 00:01:00,079
if you consider all the water that's

26
00:01:04,070 --> 00:01:02,239
inside of it because it's it's uh 100

27
00:01:06,550 --> 00:01:04,080
yeah it's very deep it's 100 feet wide

28
00:01:08,950 --> 00:01:06,560
it's 200 feet long and it's 40 feet deep

29
00:01:11,270 --> 00:01:08,960
so maybe there is an auditorium that is

30
00:01:13,109 --> 00:01:11,280
you know wider or longer but yeah and

31
00:01:14,710 --> 00:01:13,119
when you combine the length and the

32
00:01:16,469 --> 00:01:14,720
width and the

33
00:01:18,710 --> 00:01:16,479
depth then we get volume that's for your

34
00:01:21,429 --> 00:01:18,720
kids you know studying

35
00:01:22,870 --> 00:01:21,439
it's it's the largest indoor pool

36
00:01:24,469 --> 00:01:22,880
in in the world man there may be one

37
00:01:26,070 --> 00:01:24,479
that's outdoor

38
00:01:28,230 --> 00:01:26,080
but this is not a swimming pool may i

39
00:01:29,910 --> 00:01:28,240
add this is a working pool

40
00:01:31,270 --> 00:01:29,920
you know we come we do a swim test in

41
00:01:33,670 --> 00:01:31,280
here in order to be able to operate in

42
00:01:36,069 --> 00:01:33,680
here but this is meant for people to

43
00:01:39,670 --> 00:01:36,079
work and practice their space walks so

44
00:01:41,190 --> 00:01:39,680
this crew over here this scs-133 crew

45
00:01:42,789 --> 00:01:41,200
is getting ready

46
00:01:44,789 --> 00:01:42,799
uh to practice one of their spacewalks

47
00:01:47,030 --> 00:01:44,799
in the pool watch out for the water

48
00:01:49,270 --> 00:01:47,040
right

49
00:01:50,870 --> 00:01:49,280
we don't want you falling in jim

50
00:01:52,789 --> 00:01:50,880
jim is our cameraman by the way can i

51
00:01:54,550 --> 00:01:52,799
turn the camera on you for a second yeah

52
00:01:56,310 --> 00:01:54,560
see there's jimmy's there you go all

53
00:01:57,429 --> 00:01:56,320
right so

we're gonna come over here and these

55
00:02:02,709 --> 00:02:00,320
guys they got their fancy underwear on

56
00:02:04,149 --> 00:02:02,719
yeah there we go what's going on here

57
00:02:07,830 --> 00:02:04,159
hey man they can get me right and left

58
00:02:10,070 --> 00:02:07,840
together all right jesse bessie

59
00:02:12,150 --> 00:02:10,080
stressing me

60
00:02:13,589 --> 00:02:12,160
i play with paper dolls yeah do you

61
00:02:20,150 --> 00:02:13,599
really

62
00:02:23,750 --> 00:02:22,229
just want to make sure that there's no

63
00:02:25,750 --> 00:02:23,760
little bits of thread or lint or

64
00:02:27,990 --> 00:02:25,760
anything like that

65
00:02:29,910 --> 00:02:28,000
in the compromise or seal

66
00:02:30,949 --> 00:02:29,920
yeah this is very it's very important

67
00:02:31,990 --> 00:02:30,959
because you're going to lock them in

68
00:02:35,430 --> 00:02:32,000
there

69
00:02:36,949 --> 00:02:35,440
problem they'll detect they'll detect a

70
00:02:39,110 --> 00:02:36,959
leak but in space you don't want any

71
00:02:42,229 --> 00:02:39,120
leaks of course so

72
00:02:45,589 --> 00:02:42,239
mike's over here practicing so

73
00:02:56,070 --> 00:02:45,599
when you get on space it'll be

74
00:03:00,390 --> 00:02:58,149
mike you're the robot guy for all the

75
00:03:03,110 --> 00:03:00,400
evas is that right you suit iv guy and

76
00:03:04,710 --> 00:03:03,120
the robot guys so the suit iv was a

77
00:03:06,229 --> 00:03:04,720
fancy way of saying you get them dressed

78
00:03:08,229 --> 00:03:06,239
that's right is that right

79
00:03:09,589 --> 00:03:08,239
like the butler that's right all right

80
00:03:11,750 --> 00:03:09,599
get them all dressed and ready to go and

81
00:03:14,149 --> 00:03:11,760
then hustle it over to the robotic

82
00:03:15,670 --> 00:03:14,159
workstation and work the robot on that's

83
00:03:16,949 --> 00:03:15,680
right and you're always going to have a

84
00:03:18,790 --> 00:03:16,959
one of the crew members on the end of

85
00:03:20,390 --> 00:03:18,800
the robot arm for the for this stuff

86
00:03:22,309 --> 00:03:20,400
i'll be on the end for the for the whole

87
00:03:24,149 --> 00:03:22,319
time for this one or right give you one

88
00:03:26,070 --> 00:03:24,159
in two i spend some time on the arm and

89
00:03:27,830 --> 00:03:26,080
mike's going to be flying around that's

90
00:03:29,110 --> 00:03:27,840
a way to travel it is a nice you know

91
00:03:31,110 --> 00:03:29,120
it's like driving around in a lincoln or

92
00:03:33,110 --> 00:03:31,120
a cadillac or it's even better you're

93
00:03:35,030 --> 00:03:33,120
better than that even i think so you say

94
00:03:36,309 --> 00:03:35,040
i want to go over here and you go there

95
00:03:37,990 --> 00:03:36,319
you know it's nice that's the plan he

96
00:03:39,110 --> 00:03:38,000
knows where to take me yeah as i'm

97
00:03:40,470 --> 00:03:39,120
saying you say i need to go over here

98
00:03:42,710 --> 00:03:40,480
bang he'll get you exactly where you

99
00:03:43,830 --> 00:03:42,720
need to go

100
00:03:46,070 --> 00:03:43,840
ride yeah

101
00:03:47,350 --> 00:03:46,080
like a what hunk of bait on a fly rod

102
00:03:50,309 --> 00:03:47,360
wow yeah

103
00:03:50,319 --> 00:03:58,949
so now they just locked alvin inside so

104
00:03:58,959 --> 00:04:03,750
so he can't scratch his face anymore

105
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:08,550
he can use that yeah

106
00:04:11,830 --> 00:04:10,229
so nicole you've got any you're doing

107
00:04:13,030 --> 00:04:11,840
one of these evas as well or two what

108
00:04:15,350 --> 00:04:13,040
are you doing are you going outside for

109
00:04:17,590 --> 00:04:15,360
this one for these guys these are the

110
00:04:18,789 --> 00:04:17,600
only guys that go outside yeah that's it

111
00:04:19,990 --> 00:04:18,799
yeah

112
00:04:21,909 --> 00:04:20,000
that's nice

113
00:04:23,270 --> 00:04:21,919
we have two i think if we had three evas

114
00:04:26,550 --> 00:04:23,280
we might as well might swap around a

115
00:04:32,469 --> 00:04:27,909
working out nice it'd be nice to see

116
00:04:35,590 --> 00:04:33,990
but you've done a speed at a spacewalk

117
00:04:38,950 --> 00:04:35,600
on your on your first flight danger yeah

118
00:04:41,270 --> 00:04:38,960
with the 128 crew yeah

119
00:04:42,629 --> 00:04:41,280
amazing experience yeah

120
00:04:43,909 --> 00:04:42,639
do you wish you were going out again or

121
00:04:45,749 --> 00:04:43,919
are you kind of like i'll let those guys

122
00:04:47,110 --> 00:04:45,759
go with that i'm not gonna lie yeah

123
00:04:48,870 --> 00:04:47,120
you'd like to grow up again yeah i would

124
00:04:50,790 --> 00:04:48,880
love to do it again but i i mean like

125
00:04:52,550 --> 00:04:50,800
this is so cool to get to see yeah you

126
00:04:54,390 --> 00:04:52,560
know and i think the ib experience is

127
00:04:56,310 --> 00:04:54,400
going to be a neat thing too yeah so you

128
00:04:57,909 --> 00:04:56,320
get to tell them what to do i'll be the

129
00:04:59,270 --> 00:04:57,919
boss of them yeah you should take

130
00:05:00,469 --> 00:04:59,280
advantage of this especially since you

131
00:05:02,629 --> 00:05:00,479
have to go outside you know what you do

132
00:05:04,390 --> 00:05:02,639
you say oh this is so easy it would be

133
00:05:05,590 --> 00:05:04,400
no problem for me you know you tell them

134
00:05:07,270 --> 00:05:05,600
that that's what you do you're rubbing

135
00:05:09,110 --> 00:05:07,280
it out if i was out there this would be

136
00:05:10,790 --> 00:05:09,120
really easy so i'm sure this won't take

137
00:05:14,870 --> 00:05:10,800
very that kind of thing rub it in right

138
00:05:17,350 --> 00:05:14,880
you know what i mean right yeah right

139
00:05:19,830 --> 00:05:17,360
as classmates from 2000 these guys know

140
00:05:21,909 --> 00:05:19,840
very well that i can be um

141
00:05:22,870 --> 00:05:21,919
the good boss of them a good what does

142
00:05:25,510 --> 00:05:22,880
that mean

143
00:05:27,510 --> 00:05:25,520
like a nice boss a nice boss yeah

144
00:05:29,350 --> 00:05:27,520
i'm willing to tell them what to do

145
00:05:30,469 --> 00:05:29,360
still know

146
00:05:33,990 --> 00:05:30,479
i think you should take advantage of

147
00:05:37,749 --> 00:05:35,670
we don't use these in space don't use

148
00:05:39,670 --> 00:05:37,759
those weights why not nicole tell us

149
00:05:41,510 --> 00:05:39,680
well because we don't need them for

150
00:05:42,790 --> 00:05:41,520
microgravity but here

151
00:05:45,350 --> 00:05:42,800
we're going to try to do our best and

152
00:05:46,710 --> 00:05:45,360
these guys do a wonderful job of uh we

153
00:05:47,990 --> 00:05:46,720
won't have we won't have them in space

154
00:05:49,830 --> 00:05:48,000
neither i know

155
00:05:51,830 --> 00:05:49,840
that's why we don't get all right

156
00:05:53,510 --> 00:05:51,840
neutrally buoyant in the pool right

157
00:05:54,550 --> 00:05:53,520
sorry to simulate that as well right

158
00:05:56,629 --> 00:05:54,560
because people even though you're in the

159
00:05:58,390 --> 00:05:56,639
water you still things will still drop

160
00:05:59,749 --> 00:05:58,400
you know when you throw a rock it'll

161
00:06:01,590 --> 00:05:59,759
drop so yeah

162
00:06:03,189 --> 00:06:01,600
they'll drop they'll go so you need you

163
00:06:04,710 --> 00:06:03,199
need different things like this this is

164
00:06:06,469 --> 00:06:04,720
made out of some kind of foam here right

165
00:06:07,990 --> 00:06:06,479
or lightweight stuff

166
00:06:09,590 --> 00:06:08,000
they can put foam or weights around here

167
00:06:10,550 --> 00:06:09,600
to try to get them so he's floating in

168
00:06:12,230 --> 00:06:10,560
there

169
00:06:14,950 --> 00:06:12,240
and that's the trick of these these

170
00:06:16,309 --> 00:06:14,960
divers are very skilled at doing that

171
00:06:19,749 --> 00:06:16,319
so you don't need these big weights in

172
00:06:23,270 --> 00:06:21,749
what else you want to tell us

173
00:06:25,270 --> 00:06:23,280
is there any like funny things that al

174
00:06:26,550 --> 00:06:25,280
means when he gets dressed that you've

175
00:06:28,790 --> 00:06:26,560
discovered

176
00:06:30,790 --> 00:06:28,800
you know no no

177
00:06:32,230 --> 00:06:30,800
no i don't think so no these guys are

178
00:06:34,070 --> 00:06:32,240
using have you guys

179
00:06:35,749 --> 00:06:34,080
did you use those safety tether packs

180
00:06:37,510 --> 00:06:35,759
before what

181
00:06:39,189 --> 00:06:37,520
the safety tether pack and i guess not

182
00:06:40,070 --> 00:06:39,199
because i don't know what it is

183
00:06:41,270 --> 00:06:40,080
um

184
00:06:42,790 --> 00:06:41,280
you know you've got this deal where you

185
00:06:44,710 --> 00:06:42,800
get to a certain point your tether runs

186
00:06:46,629 --> 00:06:44,720
out and you have to swap another tether

187
00:06:48,870 --> 00:06:46,639
yeah see we were we only stayed inside

188
00:06:49,990 --> 00:06:48,880
the payload bay we weren't allowed to go

189
00:06:51,270 --> 00:06:50,000
very far

190
00:06:53,270 --> 00:06:51,280
you know like when you when your kid

191
00:06:54,870 --> 00:06:53,280
first takes this bicycle out you only

192
00:06:56,309 --> 00:06:54,880
let him go to the mailbox right that's

193
00:06:58,469 --> 00:06:56,319
kind of like we weren't allowed you guys

194
00:06:59,990 --> 00:06:58,479
go way far around on that space station

195
00:07:01,350 --> 00:07:00,000
we had to stay in the neighborhood no so

196
00:07:03,189 --> 00:07:01,360
we didn't have to worry about tethers

197
00:07:05,589 --> 00:07:03,199
running up well this is incredible so

198
00:07:07,350 --> 00:07:05,599
what is this now we have 85 foot and 55

199
00:07:09,110 --> 00:07:07,360
foot safety tethers you always want to

200
00:07:11,430 --> 00:07:09,120
have one of these on you of course

201
00:07:13,430 --> 00:07:11,440
and so now there's this way that you can

202
00:07:15,990 --> 00:07:13,440
hook these two tethers together

203
00:07:17,909 --> 00:07:16,000
and use one as what we call a fairly

204
00:07:19,909 --> 00:07:17,919
tethered and when you get to a certain

205
00:07:21,749 --> 00:07:19,919
point you drop that one off and then

206
00:07:23,510 --> 00:07:21,759
you're working basically from your same

207
00:07:26,309 --> 00:07:23,520
anchor point way back at the airlock but

208
00:07:28,469 --> 00:07:26,319
now you've got 85 feet plus another 85

209
00:07:30,070 --> 00:07:28,479
feet to go out

210
00:07:31,350 --> 00:07:30,080
so basically that's a good idea yeah

211
00:07:33,670 --> 00:07:31,360
it's really cool where are these things

212
00:07:34,550 --> 00:07:33,680
now you've got me interested

213
00:07:36,309 --> 00:07:34,560
right now

214
00:07:37,909 --> 00:07:36,319
all right make sure you get them

215
00:07:38,790 --> 00:07:37,919
and they're colored like color coded so

216
00:07:41,110 --> 00:07:38,800
you know

217
00:07:43,350 --> 00:07:41,120
this is my green anchor or my green

218
00:07:45,589 --> 00:07:43,360
that's clever yeah try to make it

219
00:07:47,430 --> 00:07:45,599
proof is what we call that so yeah it

220
00:07:50,309 --> 00:07:47,440
makes it you can't make mistake colors

221
00:07:51,670 --> 00:07:50,319
are good pictures are good too pictures

222
00:07:53,510 --> 00:07:51,680
you know that's something but that's

223
00:07:55,350 --> 00:07:53,520
that's too expensive some but the color

224
00:07:56,629 --> 00:07:55,360
is a good thing you got to get a bag

225
00:08:00,230 --> 00:07:56,639
that comes out of the airlock it's got a

226
00:08:01,430 --> 00:08:00,240
big green g on it really

227
00:08:04,309 --> 00:08:01,440
all right so both of these guys are

228
00:08:05,270 --> 00:08:04,319
buttoned up yep tools will be hacked

229
00:08:06,469 --> 00:08:05,280
all right

230
00:08:08,230 --> 00:08:06,479
that you don't want to go out with you

231
00:08:13,430 --> 00:08:08,240
know you need tools

232
00:08:16,790 --> 00:08:15,110
so he's putting on his what we call a

233
00:08:18,790 --> 00:08:16,800
mini workstation

234
00:08:20,550 --> 00:08:18,800
right in front of them

235
00:08:22,710 --> 00:08:20,560
that uh a lot so you can set up the

236
00:08:24,710 --> 00:08:22,720
tools in any way you want for the day

237
00:08:26,390 --> 00:08:24,720
and then you attach them

238
00:08:27,749 --> 00:08:26,400
to the suit and everything he needs

239
00:08:32,230 --> 00:08:27,759
everything al needs will be right in

240
00:08:35,029 --> 00:08:33,990
he's got a camera to take pictures in

241
00:08:36,469 --> 00:08:35,039
casey

242
00:08:38,310 --> 00:08:36,479
sometimes you need to take pictures to

243
00:08:40,149 --> 00:08:38,320
document stuff and it's nice to have a

244
00:08:41,990 --> 00:08:40,159
camera take pictures of the nice scenery

245
00:08:44,149 --> 00:08:42,000
around you

246
00:08:45,590 --> 00:08:44,159
now on the camera

247
00:08:46,790 --> 00:08:45,600
that's a tether hook that nicole's

248
00:08:49,430 --> 00:08:46,800
showing everything needs to be tethered

249
00:08:52,150 --> 00:08:49,440
so we don't lose it

250
00:08:54,230 --> 00:08:52,160
so once he attaches that hook

251
00:08:57,110 --> 00:08:54,240
we're pretty sure that that camera won't

252
00:09:02,790 --> 00:08:57,120
float away and if it does float away

253
00:09:09,190 --> 00:09:06,230
and that gizmo there is a

254
00:09:11,110 --> 00:09:09,200
body restraint tether so the jaw

255
00:09:12,870 --> 00:09:11,120
on that thing which is near nicole's

256
00:09:14,470 --> 00:09:12,880
right arm

257
00:09:16,470 --> 00:09:14,480
that you can attach to a handrail to

258
00:09:17,829 --> 00:09:16,480
keep him steady

259
00:09:19,030 --> 00:09:17,839
so when he's so he don't go float around

260
00:09:22,310 --> 00:09:19,040
if he needs to be in one place he can

261
00:09:23,910 --> 00:09:22,320
attach that thing and be nice and steady

262
00:09:28,949 --> 00:09:23,920
you can attach that to a handrail or a

263
00:09:34,790 --> 00:09:31,590
and this is an another tether

264
00:09:36,630 --> 00:09:34,800
so al doesn't float away

265
00:09:37,990 --> 00:09:36,640
he can attach that keep him close to his

266
00:09:39,509 --> 00:09:38,000
work site as well he's got a lot of

267
00:09:41,750 --> 00:09:39,519
options

268
00:09:44,150 --> 00:09:41,760
to keep himself steady

269
00:09:45,509 --> 00:09:44,160
and then this is the safety tether here

270
00:09:46,949 --> 00:09:45,519
so this is what you were saying that is

271
00:09:48,630 --> 00:09:46,959
uh

272
00:09:51,750 --> 00:09:48,640
so this would be like to fairly dry so

273
00:09:55,350 --> 00:09:53,990
and this one goes back to the air lock

274
00:09:57,430 --> 00:09:55,360
and so if you got out some places that

275
00:09:59,110 --> 00:09:57,440
you needed more tether you can drop this

276
00:10:02,389 --> 00:09:59,120
one on structure and then this will pull

277
00:10:03,829 --> 00:10:02,399
you another 85 feet in okay

278
00:10:05,990 --> 00:10:03,839
and he always he's always going to have

279
00:10:08,470 --> 00:10:06,000
that because that's his safety tiller

280
00:10:10,550 --> 00:10:08,480
will always be attached in case al let's

281
00:10:12,550 --> 00:10:10,560
go for some reason and

282
00:10:14,389 --> 00:10:12,560
we so he doesn't float away he can get

283
00:10:16,870 --> 00:10:14,399
back with us you know the tether will

284
00:10:19,190 --> 00:10:16,880
bring him back
