00:12:51,750 --> 00:12:48,560
changes and what are they and the second

198
00:12:54,470 --> 00:12:51,760
question to paulo paolo

199
00:12:56,470 --> 00:12:54,480
i hope that you won't find my question a

200
00:12:58,870 --> 00:12:56,480
bit too personal but still i'd like to

201
00:13:01,750 --> 00:12:58,880
i'd like you to answer it i heard that

202
00:13:04,150 --> 00:13:01,760
you you met your future wife during your

203
00:13:05,350 --> 00:13:04,160
training in the cosmonauts preparation

204
00:13:07,269 --> 00:13:05,360
center

205
00:13:08,629 --> 00:13:07,279
can you tell us your love story and how

206
00:13:12,150 --> 00:13:08,639
did that happen

207
00:13:18,310 --> 00:13:15,030
well thank you for uh my birthday wishes

208
00:13:21,110 --> 00:13:18,320
i i feel very lucky to be turning 50 in

209
00:13:23,509 --> 00:13:21,120
the same year that uh yuri gagarin took

210
00:13:24,949 --> 00:13:23,519
his first flight to space

211
00:13:27,670 --> 00:13:24,959
i think it's

212
00:13:28,710 --> 00:13:27,680
good for us as people to think in terms

213
00:13:29,509 --> 00:13:28,720
of

214
00:13:31,350 --> 00:13:29,519
big

215
00:13:33,269 --> 00:13:31,360
periods of time often we think about

216
00:13:35,750 --> 00:13:33,279
what did we do today what did we do this

217
00:13:37,750 --> 00:13:35,760
week what do we need to do this year

218
00:13:40,230 --> 00:13:37,760
and it's in the short term we're

219
00:13:43,030 --> 00:13:40,240
thinking in small steps and sometimes an

220
00:13:45,110 --> 00:13:43,040
anniversary like a birthday or an the

221
00:13:47,590 --> 00:13:45,120
anniversary of gagarin's first flight in

222
00:13:49,750 --> 00:13:47,600
april 50 years of human space flight

223
00:14:27,189 --> 00:13:49,760
gives us an opportunity

224
00:14:27,199 --> 00:14:43,750
foreign

225
00:14:48,790 --> 00:14:46,470
i know that vlad can do anything

226
00:14:49,910 --> 00:14:48,800
he's my favorite interpreter thank you

227
00:14:52,069 --> 00:14:49,920
um

228
00:14:54,230 --> 00:14:52,079
so i think it's

229
00:14:56,389 --> 00:14:54,240
very significant to think about these

230
00:14:59,350 --> 00:14:56,399
great accomplishments and to realize

231
00:15:01,350 --> 00:14:59,360
that we accomplish them step by step and

232
00:15:03,670 --> 00:15:01,360
i'm very proud to be part of our step

233
00:15:05,670 --> 00:15:03,680
which is expedition 26 to the

234
00:15:08,230 --> 00:15:05,680
international space station

235
00:15:10,550 --> 00:15:08,240
and as for your question about whether

236
00:15:12,870 --> 00:15:10,560
the station has become friendly to all

237
00:15:13,990 --> 00:15:12,880
sorts of people including women

238
00:15:15,990 --> 00:15:14,000
i think

239
00:15:18,629 --> 00:15:16,000
all of us when we go on a big trip we

240
00:15:19,750 --> 00:15:18,639
think about what we need what we think

241
00:15:21,590 --> 00:15:19,760
we need

242
00:15:23,670 --> 00:15:21,600
and what i've heard on the station is

243
00:15:25,829 --> 00:15:23,680
that when we get up there we really

244
00:15:27,590 --> 00:15:25,839
don't need very much to do the work that

245
00:15:30,310 --> 00:15:27,600
we are doing except the the right

246
00:15:32,710 --> 00:15:30,320
equipment and the right procedures the

247
00:15:34,389 --> 00:15:32,720
right people on the ground but as for

248
00:15:36,069 --> 00:15:34,399
the little things in life i've heard

249
00:15:37,590 --> 00:15:36,079
they're just not important when you look

250
00:15:40,069 --> 00:15:37,600
out the window and you see the earth

251
00:15:42,550 --> 00:15:40,079
below

252
00:15:44,629 --> 00:15:42,560
so i think you want to know about uh uh

253
00:15:47,030 --> 00:15:44,639
my love story with uh with alexander

254
00:15:48,389 --> 00:15:47,040
who's sitting right there by the way

255
00:15:49,749 --> 00:15:48,399
um

256
00:15:54,629 --> 00:15:49,759
i think

257
00:15:57,749 --> 00:15:54,639
mysterious way and we still don't have a

258
00:16:00,949 --> 00:15:57,759
formula to make it work so my my mother

259
00:16:03,910 --> 00:16:00,959
wanted me to marry a girl from our town

260
00:16:06,389 --> 00:16:03,920
this was when i was fairly young

261
00:16:08,230 --> 00:16:06,399
and then i started traveling around and

262
00:16:09,749 --> 00:16:08,240
every once in a while i would come over

263
00:16:12,629 --> 00:16:09,759
with a different girlfriend so she

264
00:16:14,069 --> 00:16:12,639
settled for any girlfriend from italy

265
00:16:16,470 --> 00:16:14,079
and then and then after a while she

266
00:16:20,150 --> 00:16:16,480
settled for any girlfriend that's it

267
00:16:22,230 --> 00:16:20,160
no uh though i uh when when finally

268
00:16:23,590 --> 00:16:22,240
sasha and i got together and it was a

269
00:16:25,350 --> 00:16:23,600
lucky

270
00:16:27,430 --> 00:16:25,360
uh moment

271
00:16:29,189 --> 00:16:27,440
that happened in in a way that nobody

272
00:16:31,990 --> 00:16:29,199
knows but it happened

273
00:16:33,350 --> 00:16:32,000
and i brought our home uh my mother was

274
00:16:34,949 --> 00:16:33,360
really happy

275
00:16:37,189 --> 00:16:34,959
and there is a there is a saying that

276
00:16:38,550 --> 00:16:37,199
that said that says

277
00:16:40,790 --> 00:16:38,560
behind any

278
00:16:43,990 --> 00:16:40,800
great man there is a great woman

279
00:16:45,990 --> 00:16:44,000
i i'm i'm i'm not sure a great man but

280
00:16:47,749 --> 00:16:46,000
but for sure i have a great woman thank

281
00:17:01,430 --> 00:16:47,759
you

282
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:04,630
foreign

283
00:17:08,549 --> 00:17:06,470
thank you very much peter oliver rt i

284
00:17:10,549 --> 00:17:08,559
have two questions one for dimitri and

285
00:17:12,549 --> 00:17:10,559
one for paulo if i can start with

286
00:17:14,789 --> 00:17:12,559
dimitri um we understand you're quite

287
00:17:15,909 --> 00:17:14,799
the karate enthusiast and we're

288
00:17:17,669 --> 00:17:15,919
wondering if you're going to be

289
00:17:19,510 --> 00:17:17,679
continuing your practice while on board

290
00:17:21,350 --> 00:17:19,520
the iss and if so what effects do you

291
00:17:22,710 --> 00:17:21,360
think the zero gravity will have on your

292
00:17:28,150 --> 00:17:22,720
performance

293
00:17:32,150 --> 00:17:29,909
second question to paulo um you're a

294
00:17:33,430 --> 00:17:32,160
very big guy the soyuz capsule not that

295
00:17:36,710 --> 00:17:33,440
big how are you looking forward to that

296
00:17:38,870 --> 00:17:37,750
especially

297
00:17:50,789 --> 00:17:38,880
thank you for your questions i'll

298
00:17:50,799 --> 00:18:27,750
uh

299
00:18:34,310 --> 00:18:31,029
i've been feeling that i'm involved in

300
00:18:37,510 --> 00:18:34,320
improving my health and i virtually uh

301
00:18:40,310 --> 00:18:37,520
get relief from my main work

302
00:18:42,950 --> 00:18:40,320
i get rest relaxation and this gives me

303
00:18:45,510 --> 00:18:42,960
not only physical strength but as you

304
00:18:47,190 --> 00:18:45,520
all know karate has

305
00:18:52,470 --> 00:18:47,200
components

306
00:18:55,029 --> 00:18:52,480
huge portion of development not only of

307
00:18:58,390 --> 00:18:55,039
sports itself but of human being and

308
00:19:01,909 --> 00:18:58,400
therefore i like this sport

309
00:19:05,909 --> 00:19:01,919
and as far as doing this in space

310
00:19:08,630 --> 00:19:05,919
well of course it's going to be limited

311
00:19:11,270 --> 00:19:08,640
let's say it's not going to be a full

312
00:19:13,350 --> 00:19:11,280
scope activity

313
00:19:15,029 --> 00:19:13,360
there is a number of exercises there are

314
00:19:16,950 --> 00:19:15,039
various kinds of exercises in that

315
00:19:18,950 --> 00:19:16,960
regard there are breathing exercises

316
00:19:20,870 --> 00:19:18,960
there are physical exercises there are

317
00:19:23,510 --> 00:19:20,880
certain exercises you can do in

318
00:19:25,029 --> 00:19:23,520
microgravity conditions

319
00:19:27,750 --> 00:19:25,039
some elements

320
00:19:29,909 --> 00:19:27,760
of this particular sports activity i

321
00:19:32,070 --> 00:19:29,919
would be able to use it will be useful

322
00:19:32,950 --> 00:19:32,080
helpful

323
00:19:35,270 --> 00:19:32,960
and

324
00:19:36,789 --> 00:19:35,280
as long as it doesn't do any damage to

325
00:19:38,630 --> 00:19:36,799
main

326
00:19:41,270 --> 00:19:38,640
activities physical activities of

327
00:19:43,590 --> 00:19:41,280
russian cosmonauts and as long as it's

328
00:19:45,430 --> 00:19:43,600
in agreement with the requirements of

329
00:19:47,750 --> 00:19:45,440
the institute of medical and biological

330
00:19:50,150 --> 00:19:47,760
problems

331
00:19:51,669 --> 00:19:50,160
there is a variety of activities

332
00:19:54,310 --> 00:19:51,679
exercises

333
00:19:58,789 --> 00:19:54,320
daily activity and i believe that it's

334
00:20:04,310 --> 00:20:01,590
so you you define me as a big guy

335
00:20:05,430 --> 00:20:04,320
i would really not call me big

336
00:20:07,669 --> 00:20:05,440
i'm tall

337
00:20:09,909 --> 00:20:07,679
uh not too big

338
00:20:13,669 --> 00:20:09,919
um

339
00:20:15,430 --> 00:20:13,679
through the the sius spacecraft is uh

340
00:20:16,950 --> 00:20:15,440
relatively small

341
00:20:19,750 --> 00:20:16,960
i joke

342
00:20:22,310 --> 00:20:19,760
and say that is as big as the back seat

343
00:20:23,669 --> 00:20:22,320
of a car normally and if i have to

344
00:20:25,909 --> 00:20:23,679
really be

345
00:20:28,390 --> 00:20:25,919
truthful i i think is at least for me

346
00:20:30,630 --> 00:20:28,400
it's not extremely comfortable but

347
00:20:34,549 --> 00:20:30,640
that's not important the important is

348
00:20:36,710 --> 00:20:34,559
that the the spacecraft is reliable can

349
00:20:39,270 --> 00:20:36,720
take us in space and can bring us back

350
00:20:41,029 --> 00:20:39,280
safely and that it does it very well so

351
00:20:43,029 --> 00:20:41,039
we'll suffer a little bit

352
00:20:46,470 --> 00:20:43,039
but we'll stay six months up there and

353
00:20:48,710 --> 00:20:46,480
work which is very important

354
00:20:51,510 --> 00:20:48,720
good evening uh peter leonard associated

355
00:20:54,230 --> 00:20:51,520
press um this is a question to uh all of

356
00:20:56,070 --> 00:20:54,240
you um you got to see the actual uh

357
00:20:57,750 --> 00:20:56,080
sayuse itself a couple of days ago with

358
00:21:00,149 --> 00:20:57,760
your own eyes and as you know there was

359
00:21:02,870 --> 00:21:00,159
a last minute replacement to the

360
00:21:05,029 --> 00:21:02,880
re-entry capsule i was wondering if if

361
00:21:08,549 --> 00:21:05,039
you could just talk us through

362
00:21:10,310 --> 00:21:08,559
um the exact uh why this uh why this

363
00:21:11,029 --> 00:21:10,320
took place and if you're satisfied with

364
00:21:15,029 --> 00:21:11,039
the

365
00:21:18,390 --> 00:21:15,039
and

366
00:21:20,630 --> 00:21:18,400
a second question for paulo i i um

367
00:21:22,549 --> 00:21:20,640
i saw from your uh twitter account that

368
00:21:24,470 --> 00:21:22,559
you've been uh complaining about the uh

369
00:21:27,990 --> 00:21:24,480
the food served to you over here and i

370
00:21:30,549 --> 00:21:28,000
was uh wondering if uh you're concerned

371
00:21:31,909 --> 00:21:30,559
whether with six months in space uh

372
00:21:33,669 --> 00:21:31,919
whether you're going to be uh

373
00:21:35,270 --> 00:21:33,679
dissatisfied with the i don't know the

374
00:21:38,310 --> 00:21:35,280
poor quality of the risotto or the

375
00:21:40,950 --> 00:21:38,320
casual maybe i don't know um so that's

376
00:21:44,630 --> 00:21:42,070
indeed

377
00:21:46,710 --> 00:21:44,640
there was a replacement there was an

378
00:21:49,110 --> 00:21:46,720
issue with the spacecraft

379
00:21:51,270 --> 00:21:49,120
with descent capsule it was replaced by

380
00:21:52,230 --> 00:21:51,280
a new one the new one didn't have any

381
00:21:54,149 --> 00:21:52,240
damage

382
00:21:56,549 --> 00:21:54,159
but of course all the necessary

383
00:21:58,230 --> 00:21:56,559
procedures all the necessary steps that

384
00:22:01,510 --> 00:21:58,240
are supposed to be performed for

385
00:22:04,630 --> 00:22:01,520
checkout of integrity those were done

386
00:22:07,110 --> 00:22:04,640
without any exceptions uh they were

387
00:22:09,270 --> 00:22:07,120
performed successfully and during the

388
00:22:12,230 --> 00:22:09,280
fifth check

389
00:22:13,909 --> 00:22:12,240
the state of the capsule was checked out

390
00:22:16,549 --> 00:22:13,919
and based on results there were

391
00:22:17,669 --> 00:22:16,559
absolutely no issues and we have no

392
00:22:20,470 --> 00:22:17,679
doubts

393
00:22:22,230 --> 00:22:20,480
in the reliability of the spacecraft and

394
00:22:26,470 --> 00:22:22,240
i'm certain that the flight will be

395
00:22:31,110 --> 00:22:28,710
about the the complaining about the food

396
00:22:33,510 --> 00:22:31,120
that it was almost a joke between me and

397
00:22:38,310 --> 00:22:33,520
and mike fossum here that you know for

398
00:22:40,470 --> 00:22:38,320
breakfast was having caviar yogurt fear

399
00:22:41,590 --> 00:22:40,480
coffee uh chicken

400
00:22:43,190 --> 00:22:41,600
pasta

401
00:22:45,430 --> 00:22:43,200
uh

402
00:22:48,070 --> 00:22:45,440
eggs no no eggs no cucumbers and

403
00:22:49,750 --> 00:22:48,080
tomatoes and and you know yeah the

404
00:22:52,390 --> 00:22:49,760
problem is that i'm italian we have a

405
00:22:54,230 --> 00:22:52,400
very strict way of eating and that that

406
00:22:56,149 --> 00:22:54,240
breakfast broke every single rule that

407
00:22:58,070 --> 00:22:56,159
we have so we were just joking about

408
00:23:00,470 --> 00:22:58,080
that and we were asking

409
00:23:02,149 --> 00:23:00,480
the people there on twitter if uh what

410
00:23:03,830 --> 00:23:02,159
they think by the way most of the

411
00:23:06,149 --> 00:23:03,840
italians were horrified and most of the

412
00:23:09,029 --> 00:23:06,159
rest of the world were envy about about

413
00:23:11,590 --> 00:23:09,039
him

414
00:23:13,510 --> 00:23:11,600
the the food and station is extremely

415
00:23:15,830 --> 00:23:13,520
important of course because from one

416
00:23:19,110 --> 00:23:15,840
side gives give us enough

417
00:23:21,110 --> 00:23:19,120
protein and calories to sustain our body

418
00:23:23,190 --> 00:23:21,120
and the other side is also a

419
00:23:26,149 --> 00:23:23,200
psychological uh

420
00:23:28,310 --> 00:23:26,159
moment both from a taste point of view

421
00:23:30,789 --> 00:23:28,320
than a social point of view because we

422
00:23:33,270 --> 00:23:30,799
try always to eat it together and and we

423
00:23:35,590 --> 00:23:33,280
put a lot of attention into this food i

424
00:23:38,470 --> 00:23:35,600
have no complaint i've seen that both

425
00:23:40,789 --> 00:23:38,480
nasa and russ cosmos have taken this

426
00:23:42,630 --> 00:23:40,799
very seriously and i'm satisfied with

427
00:23:43,750 --> 00:23:42,640
what we have on board we will have a

428
00:23:46,470 --> 00:23:43,760
great time

429
00:23:48,789 --> 00:23:46,480
and i would say that the food here it's

430
00:23:51,350 --> 00:23:48,799
extremely good there is a dedicated team

431
00:23:53,029 --> 00:23:51,360
of people that really cook us very great

432
00:23:55,029 --> 00:23:53,039
good food and we are really grateful for

433
00:23:55,909 --> 00:23:55,039

thank you

435
00:24:02,549 --> 00:23:59,909
natalia

with school children is there a good and

444
00:24:22,310 --> 00:24:20,000
this is the first question the second

445
00:24:24,549 --> 00:24:22,320
one to backup crew

446
00:24:27,909 --> 00:24:24,559
everything is so exciting japanese

447
00:24:30,070 --> 00:24:27,919
russian english right now paolo

448
00:24:32,630 --> 00:24:30,080

language do you speak among yourselves

450
00:24:36,149 --> 00:24:34,400
what is the common language and which

451
00:24:37,909 --> 00:24:36,159
one is your favorite

452
00:24:42,630 --> 00:24:37,919
and which language are you planning to

453
00:24:44,870 --> 00:24:42,640
communicate in with at the iss uh yes

454
00:24:46,470 --> 00:24:44,880
i'm going to join

455
00:24:48,870 --> 00:24:46,480
what

456
00:24:52,549 --> 00:24:48,880
said that the 50 years of the first

457
00:24:55,269 --> 00:24:52,559
flight of men in space is a grand event

458
00:24:56,870 --> 00:24:55,279
for the entire world not just for russia

459
00:24:59,110 --> 00:24:56,880
it's the symbol of the beginning of a

460
00:25:01,510 --> 00:24:59,120
new era

461
00:25:02,710 --> 00:25:01,520
human flight in space

462
00:25:04,070 --> 00:25:02,720
and

463
00:25:07,269 --> 00:25:04,080
i believe that it's going to be

464
00:25:09,029 --> 00:25:07,279
celebrated all over the world

465
00:25:11,029 --> 00:25:09,039
and i think that even by asking the

466
00:25:13,029 --> 00:25:11,039
question you have listed

467
00:25:14,390 --> 00:25:13,039
most of those events that are going to

468
00:25:16,630 --> 00:25:14,400
happen in which we're going to be

469
00:25:18,789 --> 00:25:16,640
involved i think that's important for

470
00:25:21,590 --> 00:25:18,799
the crew and for all the people to

471
00:25:24,070 --> 00:25:21,600
communicate not only with

472
00:25:27,990 --> 00:25:24,080
correspondence with journalists or with

473
00:25:30,070 --> 00:25:28,000
people who represent space industry but

474
00:25:31,990 --> 00:25:30,080
with school children and students all

475
00:25:34,710 --> 00:25:32,000
over the world not only in russia but in

476
00:25:37,590 --> 00:25:34,720
the united states in europe it could be

477
00:25:41,029 --> 00:25:37,600
africa australia because

478
00:25:43,269 --> 00:25:41,039
human flight in space 51st flight is

479
00:25:46,230 --> 00:25:43,279
indeed an important step in the

480
00:25:48,950 --> 00:25:46,240
development of the entire humanity and

481
00:25:50,390 --> 00:25:48,960
i'm hoping that 50 years that have

482
00:25:52,390 --> 00:25:50,400
passed since

483
00:25:56,230 --> 00:25:52,400
the first flight

484
00:25:58,470 --> 00:25:56,240
have made its huge contribution

485
00:25:59,830 --> 00:25:58,480
into the development of this

486
00:26:02,070 --> 00:25:59,840
field and

487
00:26:04,310 --> 00:26:02,080
i'm also hoping that the next 50 years

488
00:26:05,110 --> 00:26:04,320
will be no less significant

489
00:26:07,029 --> 00:26:05,120
and

490
00:26:10,149 --> 00:26:07,039
we're hoping to see

491
00:26:12,470 --> 00:26:10,159
during the next 50 years

492
00:26:15,830 --> 00:26:12,480
more significant events

493
00:26:17,750 --> 00:26:15,840
or as significant as gagarin flight

494
00:26:20,470 --> 00:26:17,760
i'd like to actually steal something

495
00:26:21,909 --> 00:26:20,480
that paulo says that i like very much

496
00:26:23,990 --> 00:26:21,919
which is that

497
00:26:26,149 --> 00:26:24,000
when we think about 50 years of the

498
00:26:27,510 --> 00:26:26,159
space program in the history of the

499
00:26:30,070 --> 00:26:27,520
space program

500
00:26:31,830 --> 00:26:30,080
um the places that we get to be

501
00:26:33,669 --> 00:26:31,840
are very special

502
00:26:35,669 --> 00:26:33,679
and what he says that i

503
00:26:37,909 --> 00:26:35,679
really love is that he says i feel like

504
00:26:39,590 --> 00:26:37,919
when i'm in these places like baikonur

505
00:26:41,750 --> 00:26:39,600
or star city

506
00:26:43,830 --> 00:26:41,760
training in here in baikonur for launch

507
00:26:46,870 --> 00:26:43,840
i feel like i'm walking on the pages of

508
00:26:48,310 --> 00:26:46,880
history and i imagine that as one of the

509
00:26:50,549 --> 00:26:48,320
as the crew that's on board the

510
00:26:53,430 --> 00:26:50,559
international space station on this very

511
00:26:56,390 --> 00:26:53,440
special day we won't be walking on the

512
00:26:58,630 --> 00:26:56,400
pages of history we'll be floating and i

513
00:27:01,029 --> 00:26:58,640
think we'll be floating in the cupola

514
00:27:03,029 --> 00:27:01,039
looking out the window and reflecting on

515
00:27:12,630 --> 00:27:03,039
the place that we get to enjoy this

516
00:27:16,070 --> 00:27:13,909
and

517
00:27:17,110 --> 00:27:16,080
i would say that it could have been

518
00:27:19,110 --> 00:27:17,120
it could have been any more

519
00:27:21,750 --> 00:27:19,120
international than it is already and

520
00:27:23,029 --> 00:27:21,760
it's fair to say about the main crew as

521
00:27:25,190 --> 00:27:23,039
well

522
00:27:27,510 --> 00:27:25,200
speaking of the languages which we speak

523
00:27:30,710 --> 00:27:27,520
uh i would say

524
00:27:34,710 --> 00:27:32,149
we do not

525
00:27:36,310 --> 00:27:34,720
have a full command of all

526
00:27:38,230 --> 00:27:36,320
languages not all languages are

527
00:27:39,190 --> 00:27:38,240
accessible to us

528
00:27:42,230 --> 00:27:39,200
and

529
00:27:44,950 --> 00:27:42,240
if we were to speak about the most

530
00:27:51,750 --> 00:27:44,960
evolved person from our cruise

531
00:27:55,510 --> 00:27:53,190
the one who

532
00:27:58,630 --> 00:27:55,520
has full comment of the english language

533
00:28:01,190 --> 00:27:58,640
but his russian i can evaluate it's

534
00:28:05,190 --> 00:28:01,200
almost as if he lived in all his life in

535
00:28:08,789 --> 00:28:05,200
the razan region as far as my

536
00:28:09,750 --> 00:28:08,799
knowledge of japanese it's very limited

537
00:28:11,430 --> 00:28:09,760
and

538
00:28:13,669 --> 00:28:11,440
so we have only two languages that we

539
00:28:16,470 --> 00:28:13,679
can communicate in russian and english

540
00:28:18,710 --> 00:28:16,480
nevertheless perhaps it's also very

541
00:28:22,470 --> 00:28:18,720
surprising that we understand one

542
00:28:24,870 --> 00:28:22,480
another so well in spite of coming from

543
00:28:42,310 --> 00:28:24,880
such different countries and different

544
00:28:45,510 --> 00:28:43,510
we speak

545
00:28:47,669 --> 00:28:45,520
english or russian

546
00:28:49,750 --> 00:28:47,679
but among the crew it depends on many

547
00:28:51,269 --> 00:28:49,760
things right now we've been

548
00:28:53,269 --> 00:28:51,279
living

549
00:28:55,590 --> 00:28:53,279
in observation

550
00:28:57,350 --> 00:28:55,600
mode and anatoly

551
00:29:00,310 --> 00:28:57,360

555
00:29:12,710 --> 00:29:11,029
robin avias with nasa television two

556
00:29:15,430 --> 00:29:12,720
questions for katie

557
00:29:16,950 --> 00:29:15,440
happy birthday first of all katie

558
00:29:19,029 --> 00:29:16,960
in part due to the

559
00:29:20,549 --> 00:29:19,039
launch delays to the next two space

560
00:29:22,870 --> 00:29:20,559
shuttle missions to early february and

561
00:29:25,190 --> 00:29:22,880
early april the increment now will see

562
00:29:27,350 --> 00:29:25,200
almost non-stop traffic from

563
00:29:29,909 --> 00:29:27,360
multinational vehicles representing the

564
00:29:32,710 --> 00:29:29,919
international partnership how complex

565
00:29:34,470 --> 00:29:32,720
will your increment now become

566
00:29:36,310 --> 00:29:34,480
both in terms of the workload and the

567
00:29:37,510 --> 00:29:36,320
goals you hope to achieve and i have a

568
00:29:38,549 --> 00:29:37,520
follow-up

569
00:29:40,870 --> 00:29:38,559
well

570
00:29:42,389 --> 00:29:40,880
this crew likes to work

571
00:29:45,190 --> 00:29:42,399
and i think we're going to have a lot of

572
00:29:47,590 --> 00:29:45,200
work to do i i'm i'm excited and i think

573
00:29:48,789 --> 00:29:47,600
the the guys are as well

574
00:29:50,870 --> 00:29:48,799
because

575
00:29:53,590 --> 00:29:50,880
these various supply vehicles and

576
00:29:56,470 --> 00:29:53,600
operations so we have a japanese supply

577
00:29:57,750 --> 00:29:56,480
vehicle a european supply vehicle

578
00:29:59,350 --> 00:29:57,760
we have the

579
00:30:02,549 --> 00:29:59,360
progress which is the russian supply

580
00:30:04,230 --> 00:30:02,559
vehicle they all dock or you know

581
00:30:06,310 --> 00:30:04,240
meet the station in different ways and

582
00:30:09,190 --> 00:30:06,320
in fact the japanese supply vehicle

583
00:30:10,710 --> 00:30:09,200
comes and hovers close by the station

584
00:30:12,310 --> 00:30:10,720
and then paulo and i will use the

585
00:30:15,110 --> 00:30:12,320
controls of the robotic arm to actually

586
00:30:17,430 --> 00:30:15,120
reach out capture that and then install

587
00:30:19,750 --> 00:30:17,440
it on the station so these these

588
00:30:22,310 --> 00:30:19,760
vehicles and then add the shuttle onto

589
00:30:24,310 --> 00:30:22,320
that represent the absolute

590
00:30:25,750 --> 00:30:24,320
international nature of our space

591
00:30:27,990 --> 00:30:25,760
station and the fact that we're all

592
00:30:29,430 --> 00:30:28,000
working together to make these things

593
00:30:31,190 --> 00:30:29,440
work because they're bringing things

594
00:30:33,190 --> 00:30:31,200
that we really need

595
00:30:34,710 --> 00:30:33,200
and with respect to being ready for

596
00:30:38,070 --> 00:30:34,720
those challenges

597
00:30:40,470 --> 00:30:38,080
we learn as a crew many generic skills

598
00:30:42,470 --> 00:30:40,480
how to operate the robotic arm how to

599
00:30:45,350 --> 00:30:42,480
prepare a port on the space station for

600
00:30:47,750 --> 00:30:45,360
the arrival of a supply vehicle

601
00:30:49,750 --> 00:30:47,760
and so we know how to do those things

602
00:30:52,230 --> 00:30:49,760
generically the fact that there are more

603
00:30:53,110 --> 00:30:52,240
of them than expected should not be a

604
00:30:56,470 --> 00:30:53,120
problem

605
00:30:59,110 --> 00:30:56,480
and for the specific um elements of

606
00:31:00,710 --> 00:30:59,120
which shuttle which tasks then we have

607
00:31:02,389 --> 00:31:00,720
ways of getting that information from

608
00:31:04,310 --> 00:31:02,399
the ground and reviewing it ahead of

609
00:31:05,990 --> 00:31:04,320
time

610
00:31:07,830 --> 00:31:06,000
and the follow-up for katie it's been a

611
00:31:09,190 --> 00:31:07,840
little over 15 years since your first

612
00:31:11,350 --> 00:31:09,200
flight into space as a mission

613
00:31:12,710 --> 00:31:11,360
specialist on a dedicated scientific

614
00:31:14,630 --> 00:31:12,720
research flight

615
00:31:17,509 --> 00:31:14,640
in your wildest imagination could you

616
00:31:19,909 --> 00:31:17,519
have dreamed of an opportunity to be a

617
00:31:22,070 --> 00:31:19,919
researcher for five months on a complex

618
00:31:24,310 --> 00:31:22,080
like the iss

619
00:31:27,669 --> 00:31:24,320
my first mission was a laboratory

620
00:31:30,870 --> 00:31:27,679
mission uh 16 days 30 different

621
00:31:32,549 --> 00:31:30,880
experiments but the main purpose was to

622
00:31:34,630 --> 00:31:32,559
understand

623
00:31:37,190 --> 00:31:34,640
since we are building a space station

624
00:31:39,669 --> 00:31:37,200
how can we conduct science and

625
00:31:43,110 --> 00:31:39,679
engineering in space what do we need to

626
00:31:45,430 --> 00:31:43,120
do to get data down to the ground and

627
00:31:47,029 --> 00:31:45,440
instructions up to the crew

628
00:31:49,430 --> 00:31:47,039
if you look at the patch from that

629
00:31:52,070 --> 00:31:49,440
mission you will see the cupola window

630
00:31:54,549 --> 00:31:52,080
of the space station it has that shape

631
00:31:56,149 --> 00:31:54,559
in that that picture and it's because we

632
00:31:59,110 --> 00:31:56,159
were getting ready for the space station

633
00:32:01,830 --> 00:31:59,120
and i'm very excited about going and and

634
00:32:06,870 --> 00:32:01,840
conducting those experiments now

635
00:32:13,830 --> 00:32:10,310
hi i'm francisco for spanish rt

636
00:32:15,430 --> 00:32:13,840
a happy birthday catherine first of all

637
00:32:16,789 --> 00:32:15,440
i would like to know about the

638
00:32:18,470 --> 00:32:16,799
superstition

639
00:32:20,389 --> 00:32:18,480
and the traditions

640
00:32:22,070 --> 00:32:20,399
how it makes and

641
00:32:23,990 --> 00:32:22,080
for example for you

642
00:32:27,509 --> 00:32:24,000
catherine what does it mean

643
00:32:28,549 --> 00:32:27,519
superstitions or traditions and which is

644
00:32:29,350 --> 00:32:28,559
the line

645
00:32:31,269 --> 00:32:29,360
that

646
00:32:33,990 --> 00:32:31,279
there's a lot of obviously

647
00:32:35,029 --> 00:32:34,000
history on this process

648
00:32:36,389 --> 00:32:35,039
but

649
00:32:39,509 --> 00:32:36,399
what is the the line between

650
00:32:42,070 --> 00:32:39,519
superstition and tradition and which are

651
00:32:44,789 --> 00:32:42,080
your favorite tradition during these

652
00:32:46,470 --> 00:32:44,799
last days of this process that you will

653
00:32:48,950 --> 00:32:46,480
make history

654
00:32:51,509 --> 00:32:48,960
i think that putting on a spacesuit

655
00:32:53,909 --> 00:32:51,519
involves almost a ritual you do it the

656
00:32:55,509 --> 00:32:53,919
same way every single time and it's a

657
00:32:57,350 --> 00:32:55,519
way of preparing yourself for the

658
00:32:59,509 --> 00:32:57,360
journey and knowing that you're ready

659
00:33:01,430 --> 00:32:59,519
and that you'll be safe so i think more

660
00:33:04,149 --> 00:33:01,440
in terms of ritual

661
00:33:06,310 --> 00:33:04,159
than superstition or

662
00:33:09,430 --> 00:33:06,320
tradition but one of the traditions i've

663
00:33:12,470 --> 00:33:09,440
been introduced to here in in baikonur

664
00:33:15,269 --> 00:33:12,480
is that every cosmonaut astronaut

665
00:33:18,230 --> 00:33:15,279
gets to go and plant a tree right here

666
00:33:20,950 --> 00:33:18,240
at the cosmonaut hotel and in that that

667
00:33:22,389 --> 00:33:20,960
tree represents their voyage on the

668
00:33:25,590 --> 00:33:22,399
soyuz

669
00:33:26,870 --> 00:33:25,600
dominic is a tv on behalf of the italian

670
00:33:30,230 --> 00:33:26,880
journalist who could not make it

671
00:33:45,669 --> 00:33:30,240
parallel uh como style

672
00:33:49,990 --> 00:33:47,830
so the first question is how are you

673
00:33:53,029 --> 00:33:50,000
the second question that you're part of

674
00:33:54,470 --> 00:33:53,039
a very symbolic crew a european an

675
00:33:57,029 --> 00:33:54,480
american

676
00:33:59,190 --> 00:33:57,039
a russian there's also japanese here so

677
00:34:01,669 --> 00:33:59,200
is cooperation the the solution and the

678
00:34:05,110 --> 00:34:01,679
last question paulo what what will you

679
00:34:10,149 --> 00:34:07,750
well um everything is uh is under

680
00:34:12,790 --> 00:34:10,159
control everything is good so i feel

681
00:34:14,069 --> 00:34:12,800
good i think we all feel good especially

682
00:34:16,790 --> 00:34:14,079
after the

683
00:34:20,869 --> 00:34:16,800
big commission big state commission gave

684
00:34:22,869 --> 00:34:20,879
us the thumb up to fly in space

685
00:34:24,629 --> 00:34:22,879
and

686
00:34:26,550 --> 00:34:24,639
yes i think the

687
00:34:29,909 --> 00:34:26,560
international cooperation is one of the

688
00:34:31,510 --> 00:34:29,919
answers for going in space

689
00:34:34,230 --> 00:34:31,520
if we want

690
00:34:36,470 --> 00:34:34,240
to keep going in this exploration going

691
00:34:37,589 --> 00:34:36,480
back to the moon to mars and keep going

692
00:34:40,629 --> 00:34:37,599
again

693
00:34:42,790 --> 00:34:40,639
we are too small as countries to to do

694
00:34:44,869 --> 00:34:42,800
this uh we need to put together all the

695
00:34:47,349 --> 00:34:44,879
resources that are around the world and

696
00:34:49,829 --> 00:34:47,359
go has humanity

697
00:34:51,829 --> 00:34:49,839
and i don't have the many things that i

698
00:34:53,349 --> 00:34:51,839
bring in space

699
00:34:55,589 --> 00:34:53,359
for me

700
00:35:00,550 --> 00:34:58,150
from italy i think i bring two main

701
00:35:02,870 --> 00:35:00,560
things one is myself and the other one

702
00:35:04,870 --> 00:35:02,880
is the flag that i usually carry on my

703
00:35:07,030 --> 00:35:04,880
shoulder and i think this is uh

704
00:35:09,510 --> 00:35:07,040
important and i would like to

705
00:35:13,750 --> 00:35:09,520
very quickly uh

706
00:35:19,109 --> 00:35:16,950
thank you

707
00:35:20,870 --> 00:35:19,119
allow me to add a little bit since the

708
00:35:23,750 --> 00:35:20,880
subject is

709
00:35:26,470 --> 00:35:23,760
about traditions and superstitions

710
00:35:28,069 --> 00:35:26,480
our crew here have

711
00:35:30,950 --> 00:35:28,079
a good

712
00:35:32,310 --> 00:35:30,960
old tradition not a superstition

713
00:35:34,630 --> 00:35:32,320
that

714
00:35:37,670 --> 00:35:34,640
the crew of soyuz

715
00:35:40,710 --> 00:35:37,680
for the past few years

716
00:35:42,390 --> 00:35:40,720
develops an emblem a symbol a symbol

717
00:35:46,790 --> 00:35:42,400
based on

718
00:35:49,190 --> 00:35:46,800
drawings and our crew is no exception

719
00:35:51,829 --> 00:35:49,200
in the russian space agency there is a

720
00:35:54,470 --> 00:35:51,839
competition and all russian competition

721
00:35:56,150 --> 00:35:54,480
for child children's drawings

722
00:35:58,950 --> 00:35:56,160
and

723
00:36:01,510 --> 00:35:58,960
it is geared to selecting a

724
00:36:04,230 --> 00:36:01,520
basis for the manned flight

725
00:36:06,069 --> 00:36:04,240
emblem and our symbol is

726
00:36:09,910 --> 00:36:06,079
here

727
00:36:11,430 --> 00:36:09,920
and after it is going to be manufactured

728
00:36:14,710 --> 00:36:11,440
in the usual way

729
00:36:16,390 --> 00:36:14,720
here you see there's a spacecraft

730
00:36:19,030 --> 00:36:16,400
soyuz

731
00:36:21,349 --> 00:36:19,040
there is the milky way here

732
00:36:23,670 --> 00:36:21,359
you see the flags of

733
00:36:27,430 --> 00:36:23,680
countries participants

734
00:36:30,230 --> 00:36:27,440
of the iss crew our names

735
00:36:32,870 --> 00:36:30,240
and the names of spacecraft

736
00:36:34,550 --> 00:36:32,880
and you can also see the

737
00:36:37,990 --> 00:36:34,560
uh

738
00:36:42,550 --> 00:36:40,069
and it's a symbol of the fact that the

739
00:36:45,109 --> 00:36:42,560
space flight

740
00:36:49,510 --> 00:36:47,190
represents combined efforts of all

741
00:36:52,069 --> 00:36:49,520
countries both hemispheres the north

742
00:36:54,390 --> 00:36:52,079
northern and the southern hemisphere

743
00:36:56,310 --> 00:36:54,400
in in order to serve the purpose of

744
00:36:57,670 --> 00:36:56,320
developing space exploration and

745
00:37:00,550 --> 00:36:57,680
research

746
00:37:07,190 --> 00:37:04,310
to develop orbital new orbits

747
00:37:09,910 --> 00:37:07,200
lunar orbits

748
00:37:11,430 --> 00:37:09,920
and go beyond the solar system perhaps

749
00:37:13,510 --> 00:37:11,440
someday

750
00:37:17,829 --> 00:37:13,520
and this was the drawing that won a

751
00:37:20,630 --> 00:37:17,839
prize the author is marina corellianka

752
00:37:23,910 --> 00:37:20,640
she is the first grade student

753
00:37:29,430 --> 00:37:26,870
russian federation

754
00:37:31,510 --> 00:37:29,440
she made a drawing i don't think we have

755
00:37:32,950 --> 00:37:31,520
it here but roscosmos should have it you

756
00:37:35,430 --> 00:37:32,960
can look it up

757
00:37:36,630 --> 00:37:35,440
and there is a symbol here

758
00:37:39,109 --> 00:37:36,640
the symbol

759
00:37:40,870 --> 00:37:39,119
itself is here the emblem

760
00:37:44,069 --> 00:37:40,880
of the crew

761
00:37:46,470 --> 00:37:44,079
that has been flying currently

762
00:37:48,310 --> 00:37:46,480
and the one that uh

763
00:37:50,230 --> 00:37:48,320
we're going to join pretty soon and i

764
00:37:52,630 --> 00:37:50,240
think that it's going to be a very good

765
00:37:55,349 --> 00:37:52,640
tradition that is going to continue and

766
00:37:57,589 --> 00:37:55,359
i'm inviting all children

uh also ross cosmos

772
00:38:12,630 --> 00:38:10,320
is a part of their tradition

773
00:38:14,790 --> 00:38:12,640
they ask the children who are winners of

774
00:38:17,829 --> 00:38:14,800
the competition to buy khanur

775
00:38:21,030 --> 00:38:17,839

776
00:38:22,470 --> 00:38:21,040
have been here during the october launch

777
00:38:24,550 --> 00:38:22,480
the girl communicated with the

778
00:38:30,390 --> 00:38:24,560
cosmonauts the winner of the competition

779
00:38:33,990 --> 00:38:32,630
a visit to baikonur

780
00:38:36,150 --> 00:38:34,000
talking to

781
00:38:38,310 --> 00:38:36,160
specialists who participate in launch

782
00:38:39,750 --> 00:38:38,320
processing in

783
00:38:43,430 --> 00:38:39,760
preparation for launch with the

784
00:38:46,470 --> 00:38:43,440
cosmonauts and to view personally

785
00:38:49,589 --> 00:38:46,480
uh the spacecraft launch with their

786
00:38:51,829 --> 00:38:49,599
emblem on board the spacecraft

787
00:38:54,150 --> 00:38:51,839
in our city they are developing a launch

788
00:38:55,990 --> 00:38:54,160
vehicle

789
00:38:58,390 --> 00:38:56,000
where

790
00:38:59,270 --> 00:38:58,400
orbital launches happen

791
00:39:01,670 --> 00:38:59,280
and

792
00:39:04,630 --> 00:39:01,680
we have met many children they are

793
00:39:07,109 --> 00:39:04,640
always excited about new launches and if

794
00:39:09,670 --> 00:39:07,119
you have any wishes to people who are

795
00:39:15,270 --> 00:39:09,680
creators of this technology uh we'll

796
00:39:20,150 --> 00:39:17,670
do not separate themselves from

797
00:39:22,950 --> 00:39:20,160
thousands of people who

798
00:39:25,990 --> 00:39:22,960
are involved on tens and dozens of

799
00:39:27,990 --> 00:39:26,000
enterprises here at baikonur and

800
00:39:31,670 --> 00:39:28,000
in the rest of russia we're a portion of

801
00:39:34,550 --> 00:39:31,680
a huge collective huge corporation

802
00:39:36,950 --> 00:39:34,560
and by all means the space flight is not

803
00:39:38,790 --> 00:39:36,960
possible without the efforts of

804
00:39:41,670 --> 00:39:38,800
thousands and thousands of people

805
00:39:44,390 --> 00:39:41,680
without their contribution and therefore

806
00:39:47,030 --> 00:39:44,400
our crew is very well aware of a huge

807
00:39:48,950 --> 00:39:47,040
responsibility that we bear

808
00:39:51,270 --> 00:39:48,960
for a successful

809
00:39:53,990 --> 00:39:51,280
flight and successful completion of all

810
00:39:57,430 --> 00:39:54,000
the goals that are

811
00:39:59,670 --> 00:39:57,440
involved in this flight and we feel our

812
00:40:04,150 --> 00:39:59,680
connection with all the people that are

813
00:40:08,950 --> 00:40:04,160
involved in uh supporting our launch

814
00:40:12,710 --> 00:40:10,550
we know that cosmonauts are very

815
00:40:15,589 --> 00:40:12,720
versatile people it's hard to imagine

816
00:40:18,230 --> 00:40:15,599
somebody other than cosmonaut who would

817
00:40:21,270 --> 00:40:18,240
be such a versatile person let's say

818
00:40:23,910 --> 00:40:21,280
dmitry he is he's into sports he plays

819
00:40:25,750 --> 00:40:23,920
the flute and we know that you're going

820
00:40:28,309 --> 00:40:25,760
to take your flute along with you on

821
00:40:35,510 --> 00:40:28,319
orbit maybe you can demonstrate it to us

822
00:40:40,710 --> 00:40:38,309
i think everybody's going to be happy

823
00:40:41,750 --> 00:40:40,720
yeah it's in the red okay yeah

824
00:40:47,910 --> 00:40:41,760
so

825
00:40:52,470 --> 00:40:50,309
we're going to be living in space

826
00:40:54,309 --> 00:40:52,480
and living as people

827
00:40:59,910 --> 00:40:54,319
involves you know bringing your whole or

828
00:40:59,920 --> 00:41:04,470
you see of course

829
00:41:07,430 --> 00:41:06,150
living up in space means that you bring

830
00:41:09,589 --> 00:41:07,440
your whole person you bring your

831
00:41:13,270 --> 00:41:09,599
interests you bring the things that you

832
00:41:14,710 --> 00:41:13,280
love to do and you bring um i think we

833
00:41:15,910 --> 00:41:14,720
need to be able to do things in our

834
00:41:18,309 --> 00:41:15,920
spare time

835
00:41:22,870 --> 00:41:18,319
every minute of the work day is spent

836
00:41:25,349 --> 00:41:22,880
doing experiments maintaining equipment

837
00:41:27,430 --> 00:41:25,359
installing new capabilities in the space

838
00:41:28,630 --> 00:41:27,440
station it's very busy and it's very

839
00:41:30,790 --> 00:41:28,640
hard work

840
00:41:32,630 --> 00:41:30,800
and i think to be healthy and come back

841
00:41:34,710 --> 00:41:32,640
and work hard the next day you need to

842
00:41:36,870 --> 00:41:34,720
be able to relax a little bit

843
00:41:39,030 --> 00:41:36,880
me i love to play the flute and one of

844
00:41:42,870 --> 00:41:39,040
the things i love about it during our

845
00:41:44,950 --> 00:41:42,880
training in russia in japan in europe

846
00:41:48,950 --> 00:41:44,960
and in the united states is that i i

847
00:41:50,630 --> 00:41:48,960
bring my flute and i think uh we we we

848
00:41:52,710 --> 00:41:50,640
work better together during the day

849
00:41:55,109 --> 00:41:52,720
because we do things like this at night

850
00:41:57,510 --> 00:41:55,119
together so i'm going to play a song

851
00:42:00,870 --> 00:41:57,520
called the hallelujah i think it's words

852
00:42:11,510 --> 00:42:00,880
