roscosmos website as well 53 00:02:45,030 --> 00:02:42,480 it happened in my childhood 54 00:02:47,670 --> 00:02:45,040 when i was in kitten garden 55 00:02:48,949 --> 00:02:47,680 and we were given 56 00:02:53,030 --> 00:02:48,959 a present 57 00:02:55,830 --> 00:02:53,040 it was a small rocket i was so happy 58 00:02:57,190 --> 00:02:55,840 i would not allow anyone to touch it and 59 00:02:59,350 --> 00:02:57,200 i would play 60 00:03:00,949 --> 00:02:59,360 play with this rocket myself all the 61 00:03:04,550 --> 00:03:00,959 time and that is why people started 62 00:03:07,110

00:03:16,830 --> 00:03:12,080 if the chance would never come and how 66 00:03:21,190 --> 00:03:19,270 chance of course i did have a feeling 67 00:03:22,149 --> 00:03:21,200 that my first flight 68 00:03:23,110 --> 00:03:22,159 would 69 00:03:25,110 --> 00:03:23,120 happen 70 00:03:27,270 --> 00:03:25,120 not in the very near future but looking 71 00:03:28,149 --> 00:03:27,280 back i would like to say the time is 72 00:03:30,830 --> 00:03:28,159 here 73 00:03:32,949 --> 00:03:30,840 time flies and we will be launching 74 00:03:34,070 --> 00:03:32,959 soon finally 75 00:03:36,149 -->

just for science and 79 00:03:45,750 --> 00:03:43,360 for space exploration but but mankind as 80 00:03:47,430 --> 00:03:45,760 a whole really was that date 50 years 81 00:03:49,910 --> 00:03:47,440 ago 82 00:03:51,589 --> 00:03:49,920 yeah no it was it was a 83 00:03:52,949 --> 00:03:51,599 very very important event 84 00:03:54,869 --> 00:03:52,959 one that it's a great honor to be 85

earth and uh you know 91 00:04:11,509 --> 00:04:09,040 i think the 50 years since then we've 92 00:04:14,550 --> 00:04:11,519 had you know nothing short of miraculous 93 00:04:17,349 --> 00:04:14,560 progress in our ability to use space to 94 00:04:19,909 --> 00:04:17,359 use space uh in a way that 95 00:04:21,509 --> 00:04:19,919 benefits all of mankind all humanity the 96 00:04:23,110 --> 00:04:21,519 science that's being conducted on board 97 00:04:25,510 --> 00:04:23,120 all of that was made possible by that 98 00:04:34,870 --> 00:04:25,520 first step that was taken uh 50 years 99

but i hope that we'll be able to 147 00:06:42,469 --> 00:06:40,000 have a very constructive mission aboard 148 00:06:43,350 --> 00:06:42,479 the international space station 149 00:06:46,070 --> 00:06:43,360 um 150 00:06:48,150 --> 00:06:46,080 i will have a blog and 151 00:06:49,990 --> 00:06:48,160 where that block came from was from my 152 00:06:51,749 --> 00:06:50,000 first mission to the international space 153 00:06:53,909 --> 00:06:51,759 station and when 154 00:06:56,870 --> 00:06:53,919 i arrived on the space station it was 155 00:06:58,629 --> 00:06:56,880 absolutely amazing to see what we all of 156 00:07:00,830 --> 00:06:58,639 our all of our partners all of the 157 00:07:03,589 --> 00:07:00,840 family had created in orbit it was just 158 00:07:06,150 --> 00:07:03,599 absolutely spectacular and i thought 159 00:07:08,550 --> 00:07:06,160 you know if we could do this if we could 160 00:07:10,469 --> 00:07:08,560 build the most complex thing ever built 161 00:07:11,990 --> 00:07:10,479 and to do it in space 162 00:07:12,790 --> 00:07:12,000 um you know some of these parts had 163 00:07:14,550 --> 00:07:12,800 never 164 00:07:17,510 --> 00:07:14,560 been connected before on the ground and 165 00:07:19,270 --> 00:07:17,520 if we could do that working together you 166 00:07:21,430 --> 00:07:19,280 know what could we do working together 167 00:07:23,110 --> 00:07:21,440 to solve a lot of the challenges that 168 00:07:26,070 --> 00:07:23,120 face our planet 169 00:07:29,189 --> 00:07:26,080 and so we created a a website called 170 00:07:31,189 --> 00:07:29,199 fragile oasis at gradually dot org 171 00:07:33,589 --> 00:07:31,199 and one of the objectives of that 172 00:07:36,150 --> 00:07:33,599 website is to shine a light from space 173 00:07:38,309 --> 00:07:36,160 to use that perspective from space to 174 00:07:40,070 --> 00:07:38,319 highlight uh somehow some of the 175 00:07:41,110 --> 00:07:40,080 challenges that we face on earth are 176 00:07:47,990 --> 00:07:41,120 being 177 00:07:53,430 --> 00:07:49,830 any other questions please 178 00:07:57,430 --> 00:07:53,440 we have the backup crew here as well 179 00:08:00,950

i would like to ask a question from 390 00:19:32,549 --> 00:19:31,440 ronald garen because i asked what were 391 00:19:35,190 --> 00:19:32,559 the main 392 00:19:37,590 --> 00:19:35,200 sciences the most interesting sciences 393 00:19:40,390 --> 00:19:37,600 he thought the cosmonauts and astronauts 394 00:19:42,070 --> 00:19:40,400 will be conducting aboard the isis i 395 00:19:45,430 --> 00:19:42,080 believe we have already answered this 396 00:19:47,750 --> 00:19:45,440 question in greater details 397 00:19:49,510 --> 00:19:47,760 we will have many scientists aboard the 398 00:19:52,630 --> 00:19:49,520 station of course we will be taking a 399 00:19:55,430 --> 00:19:52,640 lot of pictures of the planet it will be 400 00:19:56,630 --> 00:19:55,440 very interesting 401 00:19:58,549 --> 00:19:56,640 i also 402 00:20:05,029 --> 00:19:58,559 saw many other experiments that we will 403 00:20:09,990 --> 00:20:07,350 going back to the pictures i would like 404 00:20:12,870 --> 00:20:10,000 to say that it is impossible to take the 405 00:20:15,270 --> 00:20:12,880 identical picture of our planet simply 406 00:20:18,830 --> 00:20:15,280 because it looks so different at 407 00:20:25,990 --> 00:20:22,149 day and i have never seen 408 00:20:40,310 --> 00:20:26,710 i 409 00:20:44,549 --> 00:20:40,320 ourselves 410 00:20:46,710 --> 00:20:44,559 have basically two objectives one is to 411 00:20:48,710 --> 00:20:46,720 understand how the human body functions 412 00:20:50,470 --> 00:20:48,720 in space so that we can go farther and 413 00:20:52,549 --> 00:20:50,480 explore the solar system 414 00:20:54,390 --> 00:20:52,559 but the knowledge that we gain by those 415 00:20:56,950 --> 00:20:54,400 experiments also help us with medical 416 00:20:58,710 --> 00:20:56,960 problems on earth 417 00:21:00,470 --> 00:20:58,720 now that the the construction of the 418 00:21:03,110 --> 00:21:00,480 space station is almost complete and we 419 00:21:05,669 --> 00:21:03,120 have six people on board we have a lot 420 00:21:07,350 --> 00:21:05,679 more time to devote to what the space 421 00:21:09,190 --> 00:21:07,360 station was built for in the first place 422 00:21:14,470 --> 00:21:09,200 and that's all these experiments and 423 00:21:17,990 --> 00:21:17,029 in gctc 424 00:21:20,789 --> 00:21:18,000 we 425 00:21:22,070 --> 00:21:20,799 do receive a lot of qualifications 426 00:21:24,710 --> 00:21:22,080 and 427 00:21:25,830 --> 00:21:24,720 you were talking about qualification of 428 00:21:27,590 --> 00:21:25,840 a diver 429
