1 00:00:07,749 --> 00:00:05,150 good evening and welcome to tonight's 2 00:00:09,830 --> 00:00:07,759 sts-133 mission status briefing with us 3 00:00:11,430 --> 00:00:09,840 again tonight is royce renfrew the lead 4 00:00:13,589 --> 00:00:11,440 flight director for the international 5 00:00:15,190 --> 00:00:13,599 space station on this increment 6 00:00:16,310 --> 00:00:15,200 we'll go first to his statements and 7 00:00:17,990 --> 00:00:16,320 then we'll take questions here at 8 00:00:19,510 --> 00:00:18,000 johnson space center and on the phone 9 00:00:21,429 --> 00:00:19,520 bridge boyce 10 00:00:23,990 --> 00:00:21,439 okay thank you very much so we had 11 00:00:26,630 --> 00:00:24,000 another great day on orbit uh getting 12 00:00:28,790 --> 00:00:26,640 the pmm squared away ready uh 13 00:00:31,990 --> 00:00:28,800 ready for the crew undock later on 14 00:00:33,670 --> 00:00:32,000 monday morning at a crew news conference 15 00:00:36,069 --> 00:00:33,680 that went very well lots of good 16 00:00:38,709 --> 00:00:36,079 questions from all over the world people 17 00:00:40,869 --> 00:00:38,719 talking to the iss crew and the crew 18 00:00:43,670 --> 00:00:40,879 discovery at the same time 19 00:00:46,950 --> 00:00:43,680 we've been pounding through our mid-deck 20 00:00:48,950 --> 00:00:46,960 transfer we're about 90 complete when i 21 00:00:51,430 --> 00:00:48,960 last talked to aco transfer a couple 22 00:00:53,270 --> 00:00:51,440 hours before the end of my shift it's my 23 00:00:54,630 --> 00:00:53,280 expectation that the mid deck transfer 24 00:00:56,869 --> 00:00:54,640 is pretty much all done we don't 25 00:00:59,029 --> 00:00:56,879 actually have any scheduled for tomorrow 26 00:01:00,869 --> 00:00:59,039 we still have our late stow activities 27 00:01:02,549 --> 00:01:00,879 on the day we close the hatches to get 28 00:01:04,229 --> 00:01:02,559 the last couple payloads that need to 29 00:01:07,590 --> 00:01:04,239 get thrown across the hatch at the last 30 00:01:12,390 --> 00:01:10,469 today in the pmm we had a very 31 00:01:13,830 --> 00:01:12,400 successful day i told you yesterday we 32 00:01:15,910 --> 00:01:13,840 were going to go in and get a lot of the 33 00:01:17,749 --> 00:01:15,920 launch hardware squared away 34 00:01:19,510 --> 00:01:17,759 and try to get the pmm into a 35 00:01:21,830 --> 00:01:19,520 configuration for 36 00:01:23,270 --> 00:01:21,840 ease of use on orbit as opposed to all 37 00:01:24,149 --> 00:01:23,280 the the 38 00:01:32,069 --> 00:01:24,159 the 39 00:01:34,069 --> 00:01:32,079 so today we removed a bunch of that 40 00:01:36,149 --> 00:01:34,079 launch hardware and got express rack 41 00:01:37,670 --> 00:01:36,159 number eight relocated into the lab 42 00:01:39,510 --> 00:01:37,680 there was a couple questions in the crew 43 00:01:40,950 --> 00:01:39,520 news conference about that 44 00:01:43,429 --> 00:01:40,960 it was right there where the crew was 45 00:01:44,550 --> 00:01:43,439 doing the pao event 46 00:01:46,630 --> 00:01:44,560 we also 47 00:01:48,789 --> 00:01:46,640 spent some time playing with the 48 00:01:50,469 --> 00:01:48,799 zero-g stowage racks there are three of 49 00:01:52,069 --> 00:01:50,479 them that we focused on today in there 50 00:01:54,230 --> 00:01:52,079 one of those will eventually go into the 51 00:01:56,789 --> 00:01:54,240 columbus module and the other two will 52 00:01:58,389 --> 00:01:56,799 be deployed in the in the pmm they're 53 00:01:59,670 --> 00:01:58,399 actually kind of interesting 54 00:02:02,389 --> 00:01:59,680 pieces of hardware because they're 55 00:02:04,469 --> 00:02:02,399 really just fabric racks that come up 56 00:02:05,670 --> 00:02:04,479 folded up and then when they get on 57 00:02:07,670 --> 00:02:05,680 orbit we 58 00:02:09,910 --> 00:02:07,680 push them out so they take up the volume 59 00:02:12,309 --> 00:02:09,920 inside the rack and we can put 60 00:02:14,309 --> 00:02:12,319 soft stowage items in there as well 61 00:02:16,150 --> 00:02:14,319 did a little bit of stowage reconfig and 62 00:02:17,990 --> 00:02:16,160 that's just a fancy way of saying that 63 00:02:19,910 --> 00:02:18,000 we took some of the some of the 64 00:02:22,070 --> 00:02:19,920 components that came up in the pmm and 65 00:02:24,869 --> 00:02:22,080 started scattering those out around 66 00:02:29,589 --> 00:02:26,869 so all in all a great day in the pmm i 67 00:02:31,750 --> 00:02:29,599 know you guys were were watching the the 68 00:02:34,470 --> 00:02:31,760 the crew in there most of the day we 69 00:02:36,869 --> 00:02:34,480 also spent some time in the airlock 70 00:02:38,710 --> 00:02:36,879 with mr bowen and mr drew getting the 71 00:02:40,550 --> 00:02:38,720 airlock squared away and getting their 72 00:02:42,630 --> 00:02:40,560 emu's ready to transfer back to 73 00:02:44,309 --> 00:02:42,640 discovery when they come back home 74 00:02:46,470 --> 00:02:44,319 essentially putting all their tools back 75 00:02:50,070 --> 00:02:46,480 away and getting the airlock in a good 76 00:02:53,190 --> 00:02:50,080 config for nominal stay jobs 77 00:02:55,030 --> 00:02:53,200 the last tag up we had with the crew 78 00:02:57,030 --> 00:02:55,040 essentially reporting that the tool stow 79 00:02:59,350 --> 00:02:57,040 was complete in the airlock and they 80 00:03:01,830 --> 00:02:59,360 also did a little bit of work on a 81 00:03:04,149 --> 00:03:01,840 couple of conversations between the crew 82 00:03:05,350 --> 00:03:04,159 and the airlock and my eva officer 83 00:03:08,470 --> 00:03:05,360 troubleshooting 84 00:03:11,030 --> 00:03:08,480 al drew's wvs his helmet lights that 85 00:03:12,630 --> 00:03:11,040 came off in eva2 had some questions 86 00:03:14,470 --> 00:03:12,640 about the way 87 00:03:16,630 --> 00:03:14,480 we installed those previous to coming 88 00:03:18,630 --> 00:03:16,640 out the hatch so we're narrowing in on 89 00:03:20,149 --> 00:03:18,640 hopefully a solution as to why they came 90 00:03:22,790 --> 00:03:20,159 off and be able to prevent that from 91 00:03:25,990 --> 00:03:22,800 occurring in the future 92 00:03:28,149 --> 00:03:26,000 let's see tomorrow is a is a very busy 93 00:03:31,030 --> 00:03:28,159 day again on orbit we're going to do 94 00:03:33,110 --> 00:03:31,040 three major activities tomorrow the 95 00:03:34,550 --> 00:03:33,120 first major activity is a continuation 96 00:03:35,750 --> 00:03:34,560 of what we've been doing for the last 97 00:03:38,550 --> 00:03:35,760 couple of days 98 00:03:41,030 --> 00:03:38,560 in that we will continue in the pmm 99 00:03:43,350 --> 00:03:41,040 and get the last little bit of launch 100 00:03:45,990 --> 00:03:43,360 hardware taken off the racks and get 101 00:03:48,309 --> 00:03:46,000 those racks in a good configuration for 102 00:03:49,750 --> 00:03:48,319 on-orbit stay 103 00:03:52,630 --> 00:03:49,760 and we will also spend a little bit of 104 00:03:54,229 --> 00:03:52,640 time tomorrow in htv2 105 00:03:56,550 --> 00:03:54,239 getting some food out of there that 106 00:03:59,190 --> 00:03:56,560 stowed in htv and probably transfer that 107 00:04:01,589 --> 00:03:59,200 over to the pmm we'll also move some 108 00:04:03,110 --> 00:04:01,599 ballast around in htv and get it 109 00:04:05,030 --> 00:04:03,120 prepared to take some of the launch 110 00:04:07,750 --> 00:04:05,040 hardware that we've been disassembling 111 00:04:09,350 --> 00:04:07,760 in the pmm to get it transferred over to 112 00:04:11,350 --> 00:04:09,360 htv2 113 00:04:13,830 --> 00:04:11,360 it's important to maintain the center of 114 00:04:15,990 --> 00:04:13,840 gravity in the vehicle obviously and 115 00:04:17,509 --> 00:04:16,000 when we release it we want to make sure 116 00:04:18,949 --> 00:04:17,519 that the center of gravity is correct 117 00:04:21,189 --> 00:04:18,959 and that will require us to move some 118 00:04:23,110 --> 00:04:21,199 equipment around in hdv2 to get that 119 00:04:25,030 --> 00:04:23,120 ready to go 120 00:04:26,629 --> 00:04:25,040 second major major activity that we'll 121 00:04:29,749 --> 00:04:26,639 be doing tomorrow 122 00:04:32,390 --> 00:04:29,759 commander kelly will be in node three 123 00:04:35,430 --> 00:04:32,400 installing what's termed a remediation 124 00:04:37,749 --> 00:04:35,440 kit into the oxygen generation system as 125 00:04:40,870 --> 00:04:37,759 part of our regenerative ecosystem we 126 00:04:43,749 --> 00:04:40,880 take water that is produced onboard iss 127 00:04:45,670 --> 00:04:43,759 by taking condensation and 128 00:04:47,510 --> 00:04:45,680 crude urine and we clean that up and 129 00:04:49,430 --> 00:04:47,520 some of that water gets transferred over 130 00:04:50,469 --> 00:04:49,440 to the potable water system for the crew 131 00:04:52,310 --> 00:04:50,479 to drink 132 00:04:54,710 --> 00:04:52,320 some of that water also gets transferred 133 00:04:57,270 --> 00:04:54,720 to the oxygen generation rack and we 134 00:04:59,990 --> 00:04:57,280 split that down into its component parts 135 00:05:01,110 --> 00:05:00,000 and pump the o2 into the iss and dump 136 00:05:06,950 --> 00:05:01,120 the 137 00:05:08,950 --> 00:05:06,960 while waiting for a kit that we were 138 00:05:10,790 --> 00:05:08,960 bringing up on 133 called the 139 00:05:12,550 --> 00:05:10,800 remediation kit 140 00:05:14,390 --> 00:05:12,560 when we launched originally we were 141 00:05:16,390 --> 00:05:14,400 going to install the remediation kit in 142 00:05:17,830 --> 00:05:16,400 the in the stage but now that we've 143 00:05:19,270 --> 00:05:17,840 added a couple days to the docked 144 00:05:21,590 --> 00:05:19,280 mission we're going to take advantage of 145 00:05:23,909 --> 00:05:21,600 those couple days to offload the stage 146 00:05:26,150 --> 00:05:23,919 activity install that remediation kit 147 00:05:27,430 --> 00:05:26,160 tomorrow and really it's a 148 00:05:29,189 --> 00:05:27,440 it's a filter that we're going to 149 00:05:31,189 --> 00:05:29,199 install in there much like you might 150 00:05:32,629 --> 00:05:31,199 have a filter on your faucet in your in 151 00:05:34,790 --> 00:05:32,639 your home at home 152 00:05:37,110 --> 00:05:34,800 that clean out impurities in that water 153 00:05:38,790 --> 00:05:37,120 and it also has some chemicals in there 154 00:05:40,870 --> 00:05:38,800 that we want to flow through the rack to 155 00:05:42,790 --> 00:05:40,880 reduce the ph balance in there and get 156 00:05:46,150 --> 00:05:42,800 it back down to where we want it to be 157 00:05:47,830 --> 00:05:46,160 so we can start using that oga again 158 00:05:49,749 --> 00:05:47,840 and then the third major activity that 159 00:05:52,390 --> 00:05:49,759 we'll do tomorrow 160 00:05:55,110 --> 00:05:52,400 we'll have apollo and 161 00:05:58,390 --> 00:05:55,120 mike barrett working on the lab carbon 162 00:06:00,710 --> 00:05:58,400 dioxide removal assembly or sidra 163 00:06:03,510 --> 00:06:00,720 during eva one we actually had a failure 164 00:06:05,510 --> 00:06:03,520 in the lab cedra and we've narrowed that 165 00:06:07,110 --> 00:06:05,520 down to what's essentially a short in 166 00:06:09,590 --> 00:06:07,120 the heater beds 167 00:06:11,350 --> 00:06:09,600 of that cdr the carbon dioxide removal 168 00:06:12,550 --> 00:06:11,360 essentially essentially 169 00:06:15,670 --> 00:06:12,560 sucks 170 00:06:18,870 --> 00:06:15,680 air atmospheric air into the into the 171 00:06:21,189 --> 00:06:18,880 sedra and then uses a heating process to 172 00:06:23,670 --> 00:06:21,199 bake out the carbon dioxide so we can 173 00:06:25,749 --> 00:06:23,680 clean the carbon dioxide from the air so 174 00:06:27,670 --> 00:06:25,759 there are really just heater pads in 175 00:06:29,749 --> 00:06:27,680 there one of those heater pads 176 00:06:31,270 --> 00:06:29,759 apparently has a short in it and we're 177 00:06:33,590 --> 00:06:31,280 going to go in and operate on that 178 00:06:35,830 --> 00:06:33,600 particular heater pad tomorrow in that 179 00:06:38,070 --> 00:06:35,840 front seizure bed 180 00:06:40,629 --> 00:06:38,080 this is actually a good thing for mike 181 00:06:43,189 --> 00:06:40,639 barrett to do because he did exactly the 182 00:06:45,430 --> 00:06:43,199 same activity when during his increment 183 00:06:47,029 --> 00:06:45,440 we had a very similar signature we took 184 00:06:49,270 --> 00:06:47,039 a heater heater 185 00:06:50,469 --> 00:06:49,280 a cedar bed out 186 00:06:53,029 --> 00:06:50,479 cut into it 187 00:06:54,550 --> 00:06:53,039 mike barrett the doctor to use some 188 00:06:57,189 --> 00:06:54,560 scalpels and what not to cut the 189 00:06:58,469 --> 00:06:57,199 insulation foam off that cedar bed and 190 00:07:00,629 --> 00:06:58,479 then we're going to spend a little bit 191 00:07:02,469 --> 00:07:00,639 of time figuring out which wire to cut 192 00:07:04,309 --> 00:07:02,479 by using a multimeter and testing all 193 00:07:05,990 --> 00:07:04,319 those wires we'll eventually find the 194 00:07:07,029 --> 00:07:06,000 right one that's shorted we'll go in and 195 00:07:09,029 --> 00:07:07,039 snip that 196 00:07:11,749 --> 00:07:09,039 and put that back into the lab procedure 197 00:07:15,350 --> 00:07:11,759 and get that back up and running 198 00:07:17,189 --> 00:07:15,360 incidentally the the my equals officer 199 00:07:19,189 --> 00:07:17,199 was the same e-class officer that did 200 00:07:21,350 --> 00:07:19,199 this with mike previously so we've got 201 00:07:23,029 --> 00:07:21,360 the got the band back together here and 202 00:07:25,110 --> 00:07:23,039 i was the flight director on council 203 00:07:26,950 --> 00:07:25,120 when mike did that in his increment so 204 00:07:29,350 --> 00:07:26,960 apparently having mike on the vehicle 205 00:07:31,110 --> 00:07:29,360 with john gar and myself on console is a 206 00:07:32,629 --> 00:07:31,120 bad thing to do but 207 00:07:34,629 --> 00:07:32,639 we'll get all that squared away again 208 00:07:38,070 --> 00:07:34,639 tomorrow 209 00:07:40,390 --> 00:07:38,080 let's see the the hdv just to forecast 210 00:07:43,270 --> 00:07:40,400 out there a little bit for folks the htv 211 00:07:45,029 --> 00:07:43,280 release on march 28th after discovery 212 00:07:47,510 --> 00:07:45,039 departs on monday 213 00:07:50,629 --> 00:07:47,520 we'll get htv relocated back down to the 214 00:07:52,469 --> 00:07:50,639 node 2 nader port on thursday march 10th 215 00:07:54,390 --> 00:07:52,479 and we move that out a couple days with 216 00:07:56,550 --> 00:07:54,400 the extension of the mission so we'll 217 00:07:59,510 --> 00:07:56,560 get that relocated 218 00:08:01,589 --> 00:07:59,520 and then uh and then we'll uh uh 219 00:08:04,150 --> 00:08:01,599 on the 28th we'll release it from the 220 00:08:05,670 --> 00:08:04,160 nader port uh the question i had 221 00:08:08,309 --> 00:08:05,680 yesterday about when we were going to 222 00:08:10,070 --> 00:08:08,319 get robonaut out so after discovery 223 00:08:13,430 --> 00:08:10,080 undocks on monday and then we're going 224 00:08:14,550 --> 00:08:13,440 to relocate htv on thursday of that week 225 00:08:16,150 --> 00:08:14,560 we're going to give the crew a couple 226 00:08:18,070 --> 00:08:16,160 days off in between there because we've 227 00:08:20,150 --> 00:08:18,080 been working them really hard so we 228 00:08:23,350 --> 00:08:20,160 won't get robonaut out until after we 229 00:08:25,110 --> 00:08:23,360 relocate htv down to the nadir port 230 00:08:27,189 --> 00:08:25,120 on the 10th and we'll get that done 231 00:08:29,350 --> 00:08:27,199 between the 10th and the 28th when we're 232 00:08:31,510 --> 00:08:29,360 going to release htv 233 00:08:32,630 --> 00:08:31,520 that's really all i have 234 00:08:33,909 --> 00:08:32,640 okay 235 00:08:35,670 --> 00:08:33,919 thanks royce we'll start here at the 236 00:08:38,949 --> 00:08:35,680 johnson space center with any questions 237 00:08:40,949 --> 00:08:38,959 that you might have mark 238 00:08:43,509 --> 00:08:40,959 mark crowe for aviation week i just 239 00:08:44,790 --> 00:08:43,519 wanted to follow up on the uh the oga 240 00:08:46,870 --> 00:08:44,800 work so 241 00:08:49,670 --> 00:08:46,880 has it been sporadically 242 00:08:52,150 --> 00:08:49,680 operational and this uh 243 00:08:53,509 --> 00:08:52,160 puts it back in the fold or how long has 244 00:08:55,990 --> 00:08:53,519 it been 245 00:08:58,230 --> 00:08:56,000 disabled or whatever the state is now 246 00:09:00,230 --> 00:08:58,240 okay um we've been looking at a lot of 247 00:09:02,870 --> 00:09:00,240 the the data off of that and we actually 248 00:09:04,470 --> 00:09:02,880 haven't had oga up and running for uh i 249 00:09:07,829 --> 00:09:04,480 don't remember when we turned it off we 250 00:09:09,910 --> 00:09:07,839 we partially use it and operate it in a 251 00:09:11,430 --> 00:09:09,920 not full capacity whenever we needed 252 00:09:13,990 --> 00:09:11,440 some o2 253 00:09:16,150 --> 00:09:14,000 on iss but we've been we've been waiting 254 00:09:18,710 --> 00:09:16,160 literally for this remediation kit to 255 00:09:20,630 --> 00:09:18,720 arrive on 133 so we want to get those 256 00:09:22,949 --> 00:09:20,640 chemicals into the system get the ph 257 00:09:25,030 --> 00:09:22,959 balance squared away and get that filter 258 00:09:27,269 --> 00:09:25,040 in the system before we power it back up 259 00:09:29,990 --> 00:09:27,279 so we haven't really been using it we 260 00:09:32,550 --> 00:09:30,000 really don't need it atv the brought up 261 00:09:34,550 --> 00:09:32,560 a bunch of o2 for us in its tanks and 262 00:09:37,030 --> 00:09:34,560 we've transferred a bunch of o2 263 00:09:39,990 --> 00:09:37,040 over from discovery to the iss tank so 264 00:09:41,590 --> 00:09:40,000 we really haven't needed to use the oga 265 00:09:44,230 --> 00:09:41,600 up to this point but we want to get that 266 00:09:45,350 --> 00:09:44,240 squared away so we can make our own o2 267 00:09:46,790 --> 00:09:45,360 rather than having to use those 268 00:09:48,310 --> 00:09:46,800 consumables that have come up in the 269 00:09:51,990 --> 00:09:48,320 visiting vehicles so hopefully we'll get 270 00:09:56,389 --> 00:09:53,910 and just to follow up on the uh the 271 00:09:58,150 --> 00:09:56,399 cedra bed and the lab so does this bring 272 00:09:59,670 --> 00:09:58,160 up i'm trying to 273 00:10:01,190 --> 00:09:59,680 i'm not very uh 274 00:10:03,430 --> 00:10:01,200 we're trying to remember whether there's 275 00:10:05,509 --> 00:10:03,440 two beds in that one too or 276 00:10:07,350 --> 00:10:05,519 and one bed's been working so this makes 277 00:10:09,670 --> 00:10:07,360 it fully functional or can you just 278 00:10:13,030 --> 00:10:09,680 clarify that please thanks sure all of 279 00:10:15,990 --> 00:10:13,040 the seizures have two beds and the the 280 00:10:18,550 --> 00:10:16,000 one in the lab we just turned off the 281 00:10:21,829 --> 00:10:18,560 it has two power switches upstream of 282 00:10:24,150 --> 00:10:21,839 the two strings of heaters in both beds 283 00:10:26,230 --> 00:10:24,160 so that we saw a short on one side and 284 00:10:28,630 --> 00:10:26,240 we went ahead and unpowered that side so 285 00:10:30,310 --> 00:10:28,640 the lab cedar is still running but it's 286 00:10:32,949 --> 00:10:30,320 only running with one side of its 287 00:10:34,949 --> 00:10:32,959 heaters active right now and after we 288 00:10:36,470 --> 00:10:34,959 take the bed out and find that short 289 00:10:38,870 --> 00:10:36,480 clip that wire we'll be able to put it 290 00:10:40,710 --> 00:10:38,880 back in and activate both strings of the 291 00:10:46,069 --> 00:10:40,720 heater power so we'll get a little more 292 00:10:51,150 --> 00:10:49,910 philip and then comfort rob 293 00:10:53,110 --> 00:10:51,160 phillips loss with 294 00:10:56,069 --> 00:10:53,120 nasaspaceflight.com um 295 00:10:57,509 --> 00:10:56,079 i i may have misheard this but um i 296 00:11:00,310 --> 00:10:57,519 thought i heard over the commentary that 297 00:11:02,389 --> 00:11:00,320 there that the vozduk went down um could 298 00:11:04,069 --> 00:11:02,399 you just provide a quick status and you 299 00:11:05,509 --> 00:11:04,079 know what what's the go forward plan 300 00:11:08,310 --> 00:11:05,519 from here on that 301 00:11:10,150 --> 00:11:08,320 uh yes right at the end of my shift mr 302 00:11:13,030 --> 00:11:10,160 edelman had come in with his orbit three 303 00:11:14,949 --> 00:11:13,040 team and we were handing over my 304 00:11:16,630 --> 00:11:14,959 uh rio officer reported to me that 305 00:11:17,509 --> 00:11:16,640 vozduk went down 306 00:11:22,870 --> 00:11:17,519 uh 307 00:11:24,630 --> 00:11:22,880 they decided not to do anything with it 308 00:11:26,710 --> 00:11:24,640 this evening and then they'll talk to 309 00:11:27,990 --> 00:11:26,720 the crew in the morning and take a look 310 00:11:30,710 --> 00:11:28,000 at that and see if they can get that 311 00:11:31,590 --> 00:11:30,720 back up and running 312 00:11:34,150 --> 00:11:31,600 thanks 313 00:11:36,790 --> 00:11:34,160 and a question on the o2 transfer from 314 00:11:40,470 --> 00:11:36,800 the orbiter to the station um 315 00:11:43,269 --> 00:11:40,480 how how close to full will you get 316 00:11:45,990 --> 00:11:43,279 with the o2 transfer on this mission 317 00:11:46,949 --> 00:11:46,000 um the iss tanks will essentially be 318 00:11:49,670 --> 00:11:46,959 full 319 00:11:52,389 --> 00:11:49,680 uh it's a little bit uh 320 00:11:55,030 --> 00:11:52,399 it's a little bit difficult to describe 321 00:11:57,030 --> 00:11:55,040 because if you think about the the the 322 00:11:58,870 --> 00:11:57,040 heat that's applied to the outside of 323 00:12:01,430 --> 00:11:58,880 the stack that has the effect of 324 00:12:02,710 --> 00:12:01,440 expanding the gas in those tanks so if 325 00:12:04,550 --> 00:12:02,720 we're at a 326 00:12:06,470 --> 00:12:04,560 solar beta where we're getting a lot of 327 00:12:08,470 --> 00:12:06,480 heat on that side of the airlock it 328 00:12:10,629 --> 00:12:08,480 shows that there's more in those tanks 329 00:12:12,389 --> 00:12:10,639 because the pressure goes up if we're at 330 00:12:14,310 --> 00:12:12,399 a solar beta where the sun is not 331 00:12:16,629 --> 00:12:14,320 shining on those tanks on that side on 332 00:12:18,870 --> 00:12:16,639 the airlock the pressure goes down so we 333 00:12:21,190 --> 00:12:18,880 average all that out so 334 00:12:23,590 --> 00:12:21,200 i can't give you an exact number how 335 00:12:26,470 --> 00:12:23,600 many pounds of o2 we have on iss because 336 00:12:29,509 --> 00:12:26,480 it literally changes day by day but in 337 00:12:31,910 --> 00:12:29,519 the in in the math that my ecos officers 338 00:12:35,350 --> 00:12:31,920 calculate there will essentially leave 339 00:12:37,350 --> 00:12:35,360 the iss tanks full uh before discovery 340 00:12:41,590 --> 00:12:37,360 departs 341 00:12:45,430 --> 00:12:43,829 hi robert perlman with collectspace.com 342 00:12:47,509 --> 00:12:45,440 just a quick question just to follow 343 00:12:49,910 --> 00:12:47,519 what you said about robonaut so barring 344 00:12:51,670 --> 00:12:49,920 any unforeseen problems 345 00:12:55,269 --> 00:12:51,680 robonaut will be out and about by the 346 00:12:58,790 --> 00:12:55,279 time endeavors crew arrives in mid-april 347 00:13:01,430 --> 00:12:58,800 and will it be active or will it just be 348 00:13:03,590 --> 00:13:01,440 just be set up out of its packaging 349 00:13:05,829 --> 00:13:03,600 um okay so 350 00:13:08,949 --> 00:13:05,839 we'll uh we'll have it set up and then 351 00:13:11,110 --> 00:13:08,959 there's a relatively extensive uh 352 00:13:14,069 --> 00:13:11,120 checkout period that we have to do on 353 00:13:16,310 --> 00:13:14,079 robonaut and will incrementally increase 354 00:13:17,750 --> 00:13:16,320 the number of the the tasks that they do 355 00:13:19,509 --> 00:13:17,760 so obviously 356 00:13:22,550 --> 00:13:19,519 uh the very first thing that we're going 357 00:13:25,750 --> 00:13:22,560 to do sometime after we've relocated the 358 00:13:27,590 --> 00:13:25,760 htv and get in unpack him is obviously 359 00:13:29,430 --> 00:13:27,600 just set him up and then we'll turn 360 00:13:31,590 --> 00:13:29,440 around and power it on and 361 00:13:32,949 --> 00:13:31,600 some folks over in marshall will be 362 00:13:34,790 --> 00:13:32,959 looking at the 363 00:13:37,190 --> 00:13:34,800 telemetry on it and i 364 00:13:39,430 --> 00:13:37,200 can't forecast how long that'll go on 365 00:13:41,829 --> 00:13:39,440 before you ever actually see robonaut 366 00:13:43,430 --> 00:13:41,839 move but obviously we'll spend a lot of 367 00:13:45,350 --> 00:13:43,440 time just checking out the system and 368 00:13:48,389 --> 00:13:45,360 see how it behaved 369 00:13:49,910 --> 00:13:48,399 after the the forces that we put on the 370 00:13:51,990 --> 00:13:49,920 on the robonaut when we launch the 371 00:13:54,470 --> 00:13:52,000 vehicle so spend a lot of time checking 372 00:13:57,030 --> 00:13:54,480 it out and then sometime in the future 373 00:13:59,110 --> 00:13:57,040 we'll start incrementally increasing the 374 00:14:00,949 --> 00:13:59,120 activities that robonaut does he 375 00:14:03,110 --> 00:14:00,959 actually has a breadboard that he plays 376 00:14:04,870 --> 00:14:03,120 with where we command it from the ground 377 00:14:06,550 --> 00:14:04,880 for him to do things like take something 378 00:14:08,870 --> 00:14:06,560 out of a a 379 00:14:11,430 --> 00:14:08,880 specific socket and then move and then 380 00:14:13,750 --> 00:14:11,440 put it back in and then as we increase 381 00:14:15,910 --> 00:14:13,760 those uh technical difficulty of stuff 382 00:14:18,389 --> 00:14:15,920 that he'll do he'll start being behaving 383 00:14:20,150 --> 00:14:18,399 more like you would expect a human to 384 00:14:22,629 --> 00:14:20,160 move but that'll be a long way down the 385 00:14:27,910 --> 00:14:23,750 just 386 00:14:28,870 --> 00:14:27,920 his commands going to be ground driven 387 00:14:31,750 --> 00:14:28,880 or 388 00:14:35,670 --> 00:14:31,760 to 389 00:14:37,829 --> 00:14:35,680 on orbit 390 00:14:40,790 --> 00:14:37,839 the the crew actually has capability of 391 00:14:42,389 --> 00:14:40,800 operating robonaut from onboard uh the 392 00:14:44,310 --> 00:14:42,399 the first stuff that we're going to do 393 00:14:47,750 --> 00:14:44,320 there obviously one of the resources 394 00:14:49,750 --> 00:14:47,760 that we always track is crew time so we 395 00:14:52,150 --> 00:14:49,760 we want to do all of our initial check 396 00:14:54,710 --> 00:14:52,160 out just to make sure that robonaut is 397 00:14:56,310 --> 00:14:54,720 ready to go we'll do it we'll do the 398 00:14:57,990 --> 00:14:56,320 majority of that from the ground and 399 00:15:00,629 --> 00:14:58,000 then we'll if we need the crew to help 400 00:15:02,470 --> 00:15:00,639 us do one or two things turn a bolt here 401 00:15:04,550 --> 00:15:02,480 or check a circuit there that will get 402 00:15:06,150 --> 00:15:04,560 them involved in that but the majority 403 00:15:08,550 --> 00:15:06,160 of the work that we'll do to begin with 404 00:15:09,829 --> 00:15:08,560 will be commanded from the ground 405 00:15:12,710 --> 00:15:09,839 okay i think we have a question over 406 00:15:14,310 --> 00:15:12,720 here 407 00:15:15,829 --> 00:15:14,320 thanks pete spots with the christian 408 00:15:19,189 --> 00:15:15,839 science monitors a couple of quick ones 409 00:15:19,990 --> 00:15:19,199 one uh could you just sort of recap a 410 00:15:21,990 --> 00:15:20,000 bit 411 00:15:25,350 --> 00:15:22,000 the problems with the oxygen generator 412 00:15:26,870 --> 00:15:25,360 that these repairs uh are aimed to solve 413 00:15:29,269 --> 00:15:26,880 and i get the second one is just quick 414 00:15:31,189 --> 00:15:29,279 as if there's a if this um 415 00:15:32,870 --> 00:15:31,199 uh uh 416 00:15:34,550 --> 00:15:32,880 repositioning of robonaut or unpacking 417 00:15:36,949 --> 00:15:34,560 robonaut after uh 418 00:15:38,470 --> 00:15:36,959 after the uh you move the htv does that 419 00:15:40,069 --> 00:15:38,480 represent any sort of acceleration of 420 00:15:42,629 --> 00:15:40,079 the timetable or is that basically how 421 00:15:45,350 --> 00:15:42,639 you scripted it all along 422 00:15:47,350 --> 00:15:45,360 uh let's see question one the the one of 423 00:15:51,189 --> 00:15:47,360 the things that we're bringing home on 424 00:15:53,509 --> 00:15:51,199 133 is what's called a hydrogen dome 425 00:15:55,749 --> 00:15:53,519 that's part of the oga system that 426 00:15:59,110 --> 00:15:55,759 failed previously 427 00:16:02,150 --> 00:15:59,120 we in the pmm we flew up the packing for 428 00:16:04,870 --> 00:16:02,160 the hydrogen dome and the crew relocated 429 00:16:07,350 --> 00:16:04,880 that pack excuse me 430 00:16:09,670 --> 00:16:07,360 relocated that packing out of the pmm to 431 00:16:11,509 --> 00:16:09,680 discover his mid-deck and took the 432 00:16:13,749 --> 00:16:11,519 failed hydrogen dome and put that in 433 00:16:15,430 --> 00:16:13,759 discovery's mid-deck as well so that's 434 00:16:17,829 --> 00:16:15,440 the piece of hardware that failed 435 00:16:19,990 --> 00:16:17,839 originally and that was due to what we 436 00:16:22,470 --> 00:16:20,000 think is the chemical imbalance in the 437 00:16:25,189 --> 00:16:22,480 water that's going through that hydrogen 438 00:16:27,269 --> 00:16:25,199 dome so the remediation kit that and we 439 00:16:29,030 --> 00:16:27,279 had a spare one on board we installed 440 00:16:31,990 --> 00:16:29,040 that but we've been 441 00:16:35,189 --> 00:16:32,000 not operating it the oga at maximum 442 00:16:37,670 --> 00:16:35,199 capacity because we think the chemicals 443 00:16:39,430 --> 00:16:37,680 in the in the oga itself need to be 444 00:16:41,269 --> 00:16:39,440 adjusted which is what the remediation 445 00:16:43,189 --> 00:16:41,279 kit is going to do so what we didn't 446 00:16:45,110 --> 00:16:43,199 want to do is fail our other hydrogen 447 00:16:46,470 --> 00:16:45,120 dome that's currently installed so we 448 00:16:48,310 --> 00:16:46,480 we're bringing one home and we'll look 449 00:16:50,310 --> 00:16:48,320 at it when we get it on the ground we'll 450 00:16:51,990 --> 00:16:50,320 install the remediation kit tomorrow and 451 00:16:53,590 --> 00:16:52,000 that should square away the chemical 452 00:16:55,670 --> 00:16:53,600 imbalance and as i said it's kind of a 453 00:16:57,509 --> 00:16:55,680 little filter itself to make sure there 454 00:17:00,230 --> 00:16:57,519 are no impurities in that water going in 455 00:17:01,749 --> 00:17:00,240 there and uh we'll fire it up 456 00:17:04,230 --> 00:17:01,759 hopefully tomorrow evening we'll start 457 00:17:06,069 --> 00:17:04,240 it back up and see how it's behaving and 458 00:17:08,949 --> 00:17:06,079 then your second question 459 00:17:10,710 --> 00:17:08,959 about the the the period of time between 460 00:17:13,110 --> 00:17:10,720 unpacking robonaut is whether or not 461 00:17:14,710 --> 00:17:13,120 that's accelerated it's actually not 462 00:17:15,990 --> 00:17:14,720 it's uh it's pretty much where we 463 00:17:17,110 --> 00:17:16,000 thought it was going to be we want to 464 00:17:20,549 --> 00:17:17,120 get it done 465 00:17:23,029 --> 00:17:20,559 in the stage after it arrived obviously 466 00:17:24,949 --> 00:17:23,039 so we can start checking it out and and 467 00:17:26,789 --> 00:17:24,959 make sure we can start operating it if 468 00:17:29,430 --> 00:17:26,799 you think of the robonaut it's another 469 00:17:31,430 --> 00:17:29,440 science payload so we have a we have 470 00:17:33,510 --> 00:17:31,440 what's really a science payload on the 471 00:17:35,510 --> 00:17:33,520 vehicle that we want to get active as 472 00:17:38,789 --> 00:17:35,520 soon as we can so we can start using it 473 00:17:41,590 --> 00:17:38,799 so doing it after 133 undocks and the 474 00:17:44,390 --> 00:17:41,600 htv relocate 475 00:17:46,150 --> 00:17:44,400 we we originally had to relocate htv 476 00:17:49,190 --> 00:17:46,160 because we couldn't get the pmm and the 477 00:17:50,390 --> 00:17:49,200 elc out of the payload bay with with htv 478 00:17:53,190 --> 00:17:50,400 on note 2 479 00:17:55,669 --> 00:17:53,200 on the no 2 nader port so the relocation 480 00:17:58,789 --> 00:17:55,679 of htv is a little bit of a wrinkle in 481 00:18:00,549 --> 00:17:58,799 the activation of robonaut but that's 482 00:18:03,190 --> 00:18:00,559 okay we'll we'll take the extra couple 483 00:18:04,789 --> 00:18:03,200 days to relocate hdv and then get get on 484 00:18:07,029 --> 00:18:04,799 with the activation robonaut in the 485 00:18:07,909 --> 00:18:07,039 stage following 486 00:18:10,150 --> 00:18:07,919 okay 487 00:18:12,310 --> 00:18:10,160 more questions here 488 00:18:18,230 --> 00:18:12,320 uh marcia down on the phone bridge do 489 00:18:21,190 --> 00:18:19,909 hello can you hear me 490 00:18:22,950 --> 00:18:21,200 yes we can 491 00:18:25,430 --> 00:18:22,960 hopefully i answered your question there 492 00:18:26,870 --> 00:18:25,440 marcia yes you did i'm on a cell phone 493 00:18:28,870 --> 00:18:26,880 so i just wanted to make sure i heard 494 00:18:31,990 --> 00:18:28,880 properly that your best guess unless the 495 00:18:33,990 --> 00:18:32,000 crew gets to it sooner is to unblock uh 496 00:18:35,669 --> 00:18:34,000 robonaut between the 10th and 28th of 497 00:18:37,990 --> 00:18:35,679 march right here correctly that's 498 00:18:40,230 --> 00:18:38,000 correct wait wait wait thank you we want 499 00:18:42,789 --> 00:18:40,240 to get the we want to get the foam he's 500 00:18:44,150 --> 00:18:42,799 packed in in htv so we don't have to 501 00:18:46,870 --> 00:18:44,160 deal with it so we need to get him 502 00:18:48,630 --> 00:18:46,880 unpacked prior to hdv release on the 503 00:18:50,310 --> 00:18:48,640 28th 504 00:18:52,070 --> 00:18:50,320 you know katie coleman said earlier 505 00:18:54,070 --> 00:18:52,080 today that they might even try to hurry 506 00:18:55,350 --> 00:18:54,080 it up before that 507 00:18:57,990 --> 00:18:55,360 will they have time on their plate to 508 00:19:01,029 --> 00:18:58,000 even consider something like that 509 00:19:03,750 --> 00:19:01,039 uh you mean during the docked mission 510 00:19:05,990 --> 00:19:03,760 yeah or soon afterwards 511 00:19:08,310 --> 00:19:06,000 you know they they we were struggling 512 00:19:10,390 --> 00:19:08,320 today they were just doing so good today 513 00:19:11,990 --> 00:19:10,400 we were we were staying one step ahead 514 00:19:13,669 --> 00:19:12,000 of them and i usually like to be ten 515 00:19:16,390 --> 00:19:13,679 steps out of them so 516 00:19:18,950 --> 00:19:16,400 uh this crew is very fast so i would not 517 00:19:21,029 --> 00:19:18,960 put it fast them to be able to to knock 518 00:19:23,909 --> 00:19:21,039 out everything we've given them to do 519 00:19:25,510 --> 00:19:23,919 and to maybe get into that earlier but 520 00:19:28,230 --> 00:19:25,520 per the timeline we're going to do it 521 00:19:30,150 --> 00:19:28,240 after we relocate hdv before we release 522 00:19:31,430 --> 00:19:30,160 it so somewhere between the 10th and the 523 00:19:32,870 --> 00:19:31,440 28th 524 00:19:34,470 --> 00:19:32,880 thank you very much 525 00:19:36,789 --> 00:19:34,480 yes ma'am 526 00:19:38,549 --> 00:19:36,799 okay any further questions here in 527 00:19:40,870 --> 00:19:38,559 houston 528 00:19:42,549 --> 00:19:40,880 see none well thank you for being here 529 00:19:44,470 --> 00:19:42,559 this evening a couple of programming 530 00:19:45,750 --> 00:19:44,480 notes uh the crew sleep is going to 531 00:19:47,990 --> 00:19:45,760 start at 532 00:19:50,789 --> 00:19:48,000 just a few minutes at 5 53 and then the 533 00:19:52,789 --> 00:19:50,799 discovery cool go to sleep at 6 23 534 00:19:54,630 --> 00:19:52,799 and then tonight's flight day highlights 535 00:19:56,789 --> 00:19:54,640 are being pushed back by an hour to let 536 00:19:58,870 --> 00:19:56,799 us get the best uh video in there and 537 00:20:02,070 --> 00:19:58,880 they'll be beginning at 8 pm central 538 00:20:03,510 --> 00:20:02,080 time and then overnight at 12 45 a.m 539 00:20:06,149 --> 00:20:03,520 we'll have our international space 540 00:20:07,430 --> 00:20:06,159 station flight director update with that
