fifth and 21 00:00:51,070 --> 00:00:48,680 final flight of endeavor we've got an 22 00:00:52,480 --> 00:00:51,080 exciting mission planned out so let me 23 00:00:56,620 --> 00:00:52,490 go ahead and introduce the crew to you 24 00:00:58,030 --> 00:00:56,630 and you get the group photo up please so 25 00:01:00,970 --> 00:00:58,040 we'll start in the center bottom there 26 00:01:03,190 --> 00:01:00,980 you'll see our commander Mark Kelly he 27 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:03,200 is a veteran space flier of three 28 00:01:09,940 --> 00:01:06,410 previous shuttle flights sts 10 8 121 29 00:01:11,590 --> 00:01:09,950 and 124 music kept in the US Navy and 30 00:01:14,650 --> 00:01:11,600 this will be as a second flight on 31 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:14,660 endeavour move to left side of the 32 00:01:18,820 --> 00:01:16,490 picture there will start on left and 33 00:01:21,490 --> 00:01:18,830 move to the right we've got our pilot 34 00:01:23,980 --> 00:01:21,500 Greg Johnson he's a colonel in the US 35 00:01:27,010 --> 00:01:23,990 Air Force and he has flown once before 36 00:01:29,290 --> 00:01:27,020 and SGS 123 that was also on endeavour 37 00:01:31,780 --> 00:01:29,300 and Greg will also be one of our lead 38 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:31,790 robotics crew members on board when we 39 00:01:38,550 --> 00:01:36,170 get to orbit next to Greg is Mike Fink 40 00:01:41,290 --> 00:01:38,560 he is also colonel in the US Air Force 41 00:01:43,030 --> 00:01:41,300 he's a veteran flyer of two expedition 42 00:01:44,980 --> 00:01:43,040 missions to the International Space 43 00:01:46,980 --> 00:01:44,990 Station expedition 9 as well as 44 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:46,990 expedition 18 where he was a commander 45 00:01:51,250 --> 00:01:49,610 this however will be his first flight on 46 00:01:54,550 --> 00:01:51,260 the shuttle both of his expedition 47 00:01:58,060 --> 00:01:54,560 flights were on Soyuz vehicles next to 48 00:02:01,120 --> 00:01:58,070 mike is Greg chamot off ms 2 he also 49 00:02:04,469 --> 00:02:01,130 spent long-duration mission on the space 50 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:04,479 station with expedition 17 and 18 and 51 00:02:09,790 --> 00:02:07,370 his ride tune from the space station for 52 00:02:10,749 --> 00:02:09,800 that mission was on board the shuttles 53 00:02:13,390 --> 00:02:10,759 as well but this will be his first 54 00:02:19,140 --> 00:02:13,400 shuttle full shuttle flight on 55 00:02:24,100 --> 00:02:19,150 never next to him is drew Feustel ms3 he 56 00:02:27,429 --> 00:02:24,110 was last at the Hubble servicing mission 57 00:02:29,199 --> 00:02:27,439 on sts-125 doing numerous spacewalks and 58 00:02:32,289 --> 00:02:29,209 it would be one of our lead spacewalkers 59 00:02:34,630 --> 00:02:32,299 for this flight and on the far right 60 00:02:36,759 --> 00:02:34,640 there is Roberto Vittori he's our 61 00:02:39,819 --> 00:02:36,769 European Space Agency astronaut on this 62 00:02:41,920 --> 00:02:39,829 mission and he did too so use taxi 63 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:41,930 rotations to the space station one back 64 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:46,250 in 2002 and another in 2005 and this 65 00:02:51,580 --> 00:02:47,810 will be his first flight on the on the 66 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:51,590 shuttle so if we can go on to the crew 67 00:02:57,069 --> 00:02:55,370 patch I'm going to tell you the 68 00:02:59,140 --> 00:02:57,079 description of the patch here is the 69 00:03:00,339 --> 00:02:59,150 design of the 134 crew patch highlights 70 00:03:02,890 --> 00:03:00,349 research on the International Space 71 00:03:04,750 --> 00:03:02,900 Station focusing on fundamental physics 72 00:03:06,610 --> 00:03:04,760 of the universe on this mission the crew 73 00:03:07,839 --> 00:03:06,620 of the space shuttle endeavour will 74 00:03:10,660 --> 00:03:07,849 install the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer 75 00:03:14,110 --> 00:03:10,670 the MS experiment which is a cosmic 76 00:03:15,729 --> 00:03:14,120 particle detector but studying subatomic 77 00:03:18,159 --> 00:03:15,739 particles in the background cosmic 78 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:18,169 radiation and searching for antimatter 79 00:03:21,250 --> 00:03:19,730 and dark matter will help scientists 80 00:03:23,860 --> 00:03:21,260 better understand the evolution 81 00:03:24,970 --> 00:03:23,870 properties of our universe the shape of 82 00:03:27,250 --> 00:03:24,980 the patch is inspired by the 83 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:27,260 international atomic symbol representing 84 00:03:31,539 --> 00:03:29,690 an atom with the orbiting electrons 85 00:03:33,430 --> 00:03:31,549 around the nucleus and the burst in the 86 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:33,440 Senate refers to the big bang theory and 87 00:03:38,530 --> 00:03:37,010 the origin of the universe space shuttle 88 00:03:39,759 --> 00:03:38,540 endeavour and ISS fly together in the 89 00:03:41,110 --> 00:03:39,769 sunrise over the limb of the earth 90 00:03:42,670 --> 00:03:41,120 representing the dawn of a new age 91 00:03:45,369 --> 00:03:42,680 understanding of the nature of the 92 00:03:48,339 --> 00:03:45,379 universe so I think it's a very 93 00:03:50,229 --> 00:03:48,349 representative patch for the for the 94 00:03:52,990 --> 00:03:50,239 compliment we have executing on this 95 00:03:54,399 --> 00:03:53,000 flight next I like to introduce you to 96 00:03:56,229 --> 00:03:54,409 the space shuttle flight directors that 97 00:03:58,770 --> 00:03:56,239 will be supporting the mission if we can 98 00:04:01,119 --> 00:03:58,780 get the sm photo up there Richard 99 00:04:03,420 --> 00:04:01,129 Richard Jones will be RS and flight 100 00:04:06,189 --> 00:04:03,430 director he's a veteran flight director 101 00:04:08,349 --> 00:04:06,199 as many assets and entries under his 102 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:08,359 belt and you'll also be serving as the 103 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:10,370 shuttle team for flight director if any 104 00:04:14,229 --> 00:04:11,690 issues come up during the mission that 105 00:04:17,289 --> 00:04:14,239 we need extra support on he'll lead that 106 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:17,299 team as well I will be the orbit one 107 00:04:20,589 --> 00:04:19,250 flight director I'll be working with the 108 00:04:21,849 --> 00:04:20,599 crew from the time they wake up in the 109 00:04:24,399 --> 00:04:21,859 morning till about halfway through their 110 00:04:25,930 --> 00:04:24,409 workday and then I will hand over to the 111 00:04:27,510 --> 00:04:25,940 orbit two flight director you see a 112 00:04:30,820 --> 00:04:27,520 picture of paul died here 113 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:30,830 is a by the most senior flight director 114 00:04:35,110 --> 00:04:32,090 in our office you've seen it many many 115 00:04:37,210 --> 00:04:35,120 times both as a lead and as an orbit 116 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:37,220 flight director and he's also a space 117 00:04:41,950 --> 00:04:40,250 station flight director as well and he 118 00:04:43,990 --> 00:04:41,960 will be working from middle there crew 119 00:04:46,660 --> 00:04:44,000 work day right up to the time they're 120 00:04:49,300 --> 00:04:46,670 going to sleep at night then he will 121 00:04:51,280 --> 00:04:49,310 hand over to the orbit 3 planning flight 122 00:04:53,860 --> 00:04:51,290 director that'll be Kwazii a laburar ooh 123 00:04:55,930 --> 00:04:53,870 ho and quad sees a another veteran 124 00:04:57,910 --> 00:04:55,940 flight director he's certified both 125 00:05:00,430 --> 00:04:57,920 station flight director side as well as 126 00:05:02,110 --> 00:05:00,440 shuttle and he will be taking care of 127 00:05:04,660 --> 00:05:02,120 Endeavour while the crew sleeps at night 128 00:05:06,460 --> 00:05:04,670 and also replanting the activities for 129 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:06,470 the next day if any adjustments need to 130 00:05:11,100 --> 00:05:09,770 be made he will also be the lead flight 131 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:11,110 director on the on the next mission 132 00:05:16,870 --> 00:05:13,370 sts-135 so you'll see him again very 133 00:05:18,910 --> 00:05:16,880 shortly and near the end of mission will 134 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:18,920 be bringing Tony ciccotti and his team 135 00:05:23,650 --> 00:05:21,890 entry team on to replace my team orbit 136 00:05:25,990 --> 00:05:23,660 one team they'll come in and take care 137 00:05:27,340 --> 00:05:26,000 of standard landing minus one day 138 00:05:29,940 --> 00:05:27,350 activities to make sure the flight 139 00:05:32,350 --> 00:05:29,950 control system and all the landing 140 00:05:34,180 --> 00:05:32,360 subsystems on the orbiter ready to bring 141 00:05:36,820 --> 00:05:34,190 endeavour home and then they'll come in 142 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:36,830 and go ahead and land endeavour 143 00:05:49,980 --> 00:05:38,570 hopefully beautiful landing right at KSC 144 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:49,990 right on time so sts-135 Ulf 6 Ulf is 145 00:05:54,550 --> 00:05:52,250 utilities and logistics flight to the 146 00:05:57,390 --> 00:05:54,560 space station the Assembly of the space 147 00:06:00,370 --> 00:05:57,400 station is for all practical purposes 148 00:06:02,980 --> 00:06:00,380 complete so we will be hauling up quite 149 00:06:05,230 --> 00:06:02,990 a bit of cargo to very large payloads to 150 00:06:07,950 --> 00:06:05,240 be installed on the station as well as a 151 00:06:11,830 --> 00:06:07,960 bunch of cargo to be transferred inside 152 00:06:14,470 --> 00:06:11,840 this is a 14 + 1 + 2 day mission which 153 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:14,480 means we a 14 nominal days planned we 154 00:06:19,090 --> 00:06:16,970 also have the consumables available to 155 00:06:21,340 --> 00:06:19,100 to add an extra dock date of the mission 156 00:06:23,020 --> 00:06:21,350 if if the need arises and then the plus 157 00:06:25,210 --> 00:06:23,030 2 days at the end gives us some 158 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:25,220 opportunities to bring endeavour home 159 00:06:32,110 --> 00:06:28,130 safely hopefully at KSC usually talking 160 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:32,120 about weather challenges there we also 161 00:06:37,390 --> 00:06:35,170 have four spacewalks planned to very 162 00:06:39,910 --> 00:06:37,400 large payloads that will be installed 163 00:06:41,110 --> 00:06:39,920 robotically on this mission then we also 164 00:06:42,280 --> 00:06:41,120 have a unique test 165 00:06:44,710 --> 00:06:42,290 objective that we're going to fly this 166 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:44,720 flight and that's going to be for the 167 00:06:48,490 --> 00:06:46,370 Orion program so I'd like to take a few 168 00:06:52,780 --> 00:06:48,500 minutes to introduce you to some of that 169 00:06:56,620 --> 00:06:52,790 hardware this test is going to be called 170 00:06:58,330 --> 00:06:56,630 the sensor test for Orion realm nav risk 171 00:06:59,800 --> 00:06:58,340 mitigation I know that's a mouthful so 172 00:07:02,170 --> 00:06:59,810 we're in a download really quick to a 173 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:02,180 NASA acronym which we all love and 174 00:07:09,790 --> 00:07:07,250 that's storm st orrm and the system is 175 00:07:14,050 --> 00:07:09,800 it basically a visual navigation system 176 00:07:16,150 --> 00:07:14,060 and it will be used for uncrewed and or 177 00:07:19,210 --> 00:07:16,160 crude dockings and undocking for future 178 00:07:20,860 --> 00:07:19,220 spacecraft and the tests were in a 179 00:07:22,060 --> 00:07:20,870 perform on this flight will both 180 00:07:24,879 --> 00:07:22,070 demonstrate and characterize the 181 00:07:26,770 --> 00:07:24,889 performance of this system in the actual 182 00:07:29,469 --> 00:07:26,780 space flight environment that it's going 183 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:29,479 to be expected to perform in and that's 184 00:07:33,969 --> 00:07:32,690 important because all spaceflight 185 00:07:36,430 --> 00:07:33,979 hardware gets designed on the ground 186 00:07:38,890 --> 00:07:36,440 tested the best we can but you really 187 00:07:40,750 --> 00:07:38,900 can't simulate the entire space 188 00:07:43,150 --> 00:07:40,760 environment here so until you get it to 189 00:07:45,460 --> 00:07:43,160 orbit there's only so far you can take 190 00:07:47,589 --> 00:07:45,470 it and technology goes through what's 191 00:07:49,540 --> 00:07:47,599 called technology readiness levels and 192 00:07:51,070 --> 00:07:49,550 so you get through a certain stage here 193 00:07:52,990 --> 00:07:51,080 on ground testing go as far as you can 194 00:07:54,790 --> 00:07:53,000 go and you can't you can't increase the 195 00:07:56,379 --> 00:07:54,800 readiness level the hardware until you 196 00:07:59,170 --> 00:07:56,389 get it into the actual environment which 197 00:08:01,060 --> 00:07:59,180 is up in space so this is really 198 00:08:02,710 --> 00:08:01,070 exciting to get this Hardware up up in 199 00:08:04,060 --> 00:08:02,720 space give a Ryan a chance to check it 200 00:08:06,250 --> 00:08:04,070 out before they're actually going to be 201 00:08:10,450 --> 00:08:06,260 depending on that to do a rendezvous and 202 00:08:12,250 --> 00:08:10,460 docking so if I get the first still 203 00:08:14,620 --> 00:08:12,260 photo here and start explaining some of 204 00:08:17,469 --> 00:08:14,630 the hardware to you you see the sensor 205 00:08:18,460 --> 00:08:17,479 enclosure assembly this is installing 206 00:08:19,839 --> 00:08:18,470 the payload bay and i'm going to show 207 00:08:22,450 --> 00:08:19,849 you the actual locations in just a 208 00:08:25,810 --> 00:08:22,460 minute but it contains the two sensors 209 00:08:27,610 --> 00:08:25,820 that the storm system is comprised of 210 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:27,620 the first being the vision navigation 211 00:08:32,949 --> 00:08:30,650 sensor and this is basically a lighter 212 00:08:34,990 --> 00:08:32,959 based system which means a light 213 00:08:37,180 --> 00:08:35,000 detection and ranging it's it's an 214 00:08:38,949 --> 00:08:37,190 optical sensing technology and it 215 00:08:42,459 --> 00:08:38,959 measures a properties of reflected light 216 00:08:44,110 --> 00:08:42,469 to determine target information it's 217 00:08:46,780 --> 00:08:44,120 similar to standard radar except it uses 218 00:08:50,560 --> 00:08:46,790 laser laser pulses instead of radio 219 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:50,570 waves the vns acquires a complete 220 00:08:54,650 --> 00:08:52,370 three-dimensional image of the target 221 00:08:58,309 --> 00:08:54,660 and a single laser pulse 222 00:09:01,009 --> 00:08:58,319 one of the most impressive specs in my / 223 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:01,019 in my opinion is the acquisition range 224 00:09:05,900 --> 00:09:03,569 is about 20,000 feet or six kilometers 225 00:09:07,970 --> 00:09:05,910 this is about three times the capability 226 00:09:09,710 --> 00:09:07,980 of the shuttle trajectory control sensor 227 00:09:13,009 --> 00:09:09,720 that we use in close flying with the 228 00:09:14,900 --> 00:09:13,019 orbiter the other sensor inside that 229 00:09:16,910 --> 00:09:14,910 same enclosure is the docking camera 230 00:09:20,150 --> 00:09:16,920 this is a high-resolution visual camera 231 00:09:22,550 --> 00:09:20,160 that a a crew member could use for both 232 00:09:25,309 --> 00:09:22,560 situation is citral situational 233 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:25,319 awareness as well as pi lighting cues if 234 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:28,170 he is manually flying the ship and for 235 00:09:31,790 --> 00:09:29,730 comparison on this hardware it's about 236 00:09:33,470 --> 00:09:31,800 16 times a higher resolution than the 237 00:09:38,119 --> 00:09:33,480 shuttle centerline camera that we use 238 00:09:42,379 --> 00:09:38,129 today and go to the next still picture 239 00:09:44,449 --> 00:09:42,389 of the avionics box this is also mount 240 00:09:46,069 --> 00:09:44,459 in the payload bay and it provides 241 00:09:48,790 --> 00:09:46,079 basically power distribution both for 242 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:48,800 the sensors and the avionics box itself 243 00:09:52,850 --> 00:09:51,930 it takes care of the data recording the 244 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:52,860 sensors are going to collect a 245 00:09:56,689 --> 00:09:54,810 tremendous amount of information so it 246 00:09:59,900 --> 00:09:56,699 will record and store that data inside 247 00:10:02,090 --> 00:09:59,910 this enclosure as well and it's also the 248 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:02,100 interface between the laptop there's a 249 00:10:06,860 --> 00:10:03,930 dedicated storm laptop that will be in 250 00:10:08,740 --> 00:10:06,870 the crew cabin and drew is going to be 251 00:10:11,210 --> 00:10:08,750 our prime crew member operating that 252 00:10:13,759 --> 00:10:11,220 laptop and the storm system for us so 253 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:13,769 who activate it and get all set up for 254 00:10:17,929 --> 00:10:16,410 the activities and then he'll be there 255 00:10:19,879 --> 00:10:17,939 to monitor and help us troubleshoot if 256 00:10:25,550 --> 00:10:19,889 anything anything were to crop up they 257 00:10:29,300 --> 00:10:25,560 need some attention and then next next 258 00:10:30,889 --> 00:10:29,310 slide here you'll see the another key 259 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:30,899 component of the system of the storm 260 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:32,730 reflectors on the right side you got a 261 00:10:37,519 --> 00:10:35,850 picture of the docking mechanism on the 262 00:10:39,650 --> 00:10:37,529 space station that the shuttle docks to 263 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:39,660 and circled in red there is the actual 264 00:10:44,689 --> 00:10:42,930 docking target and a bigger picture that 265 00:10:46,850 --> 00:10:44,699 there is on the left side and you can 266 00:10:50,269 --> 00:10:46,860 see on the outside perimeter the docking 267 00:10:53,869 --> 00:10:50,279 target circled for of the reflectors 268 00:10:57,110 --> 00:10:53,879 that are mounted there specifically for 269 00:10:58,460 --> 00:10:57,120 the storm dto and in the center this 270 00:10:59,780 --> 00:10:58,470 picture doesn't show the crosshair 271 00:11:01,579 --> 00:10:59,790 that's normally mounted there for the 272 00:11:03,319 --> 00:11:01,589 actual docking and on that on that 273 00:11:04,759 --> 00:11:03,329 crosshair will be the fifth element as 274 00:11:07,069 --> 00:11:04,769 well so they'll be five reflectors 275 00:11:08,060 --> 00:11:07,079 installed on the docking target for the 276 00:11:10,370 --> 00:11:08,070 storm system 277 00:11:15,530 --> 00:11:10,380 the to utilize for the approach and 278 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:15,540 docking and undocking so I'm going to go 279 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:20,130 to last slide on storm here so as I said 280 00:11:24,410 --> 00:11:21,930 before the the vns system is going to 281 00:11:27,380 --> 00:11:24,420 acquire a 3d image of the target and a 282 00:11:29,380 --> 00:11:27,390 single laser pulse and this reflected 283 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:29,390 pulse allows for a range or distance 284 00:11:34,910 --> 00:11:31,410 determination and intensity of the 285 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:34,920 return signal to be determined so many 286 00:11:38,270 --> 00:11:36,330 pulses over time allows you also 287 00:11:42,470 --> 00:11:38,280 determine range rate or relative 288 00:11:44,570 --> 00:11:42,480 velocity between the two spacecraft the 289 00:11:46,250 --> 00:11:44,580 patterner of reflectors in the image 290 00:11:48,350 --> 00:11:46,260 allow for the determination of relative 291 00:11:49,610 --> 00:11:48,360 vehicle orientation so if you look down 292 00:11:52,940 --> 00:11:49,620 at the bottom there on the left you see 293 00:11:54,890 --> 00:11:52,950 a visible image of a docking target 294 00:11:57,680 --> 00:11:54,900 mounted on a stand here on the ground 295 00:11:59,650 --> 00:11:57,690 the next picture over the intensity 296 00:12:01,910 --> 00:11:59,660 image you can see basically all blue 297 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:01,920 kind of hard to see there but very 298 00:12:06,230 --> 00:12:04,530 specifically you can see the five red 299 00:12:08,390 --> 00:12:06,240 dots where the reflectors are that 300 00:12:11,300 --> 00:12:08,400 because they return signal from those 301 00:12:12,950 --> 00:12:11,310 reflectors is much more intense than the 302 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:12,960 reflected signal from the surrounding 303 00:12:17,900 --> 00:12:16,050 surfaces so the system as a knowledge of 304 00:12:19,850 --> 00:12:17,910 where those reflectors are and then can 305 00:12:22,580 --> 00:12:19,860 do some computations to determine the 306 00:12:27,290 --> 00:12:22,590 relative orientation which is critical 307 00:12:28,970 --> 00:12:27,300 for docking two spacecraft so all these 308 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:28,980 images will be process to identify the 309 00:12:34,910 --> 00:12:31,770 targets determination of its range range 310 00:12:36,590 --> 00:12:34,920 rate attitude and bearing all these are 311 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:36,600 critical parameters to allow for a 312 00:12:41,900 --> 00:12:40,290 successful docking of two spacecraft so 313 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:41,910 we're really excited about having this 314 00:12:46,310 --> 00:12:44,970 storm test on this flight and it's also 315 00:12:48,170 --> 00:12:46,320 going to allow endeavour to fly a very 316 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:48,180 unique trajectory on undocking day we'll 317 00:12:56,690 --> 00:12:50,250 talk more detail about that in just a 318 00:12:59,240 --> 00:12:56,700 little bit so now I'll go and give you 319 00:13:01,430 --> 00:12:59,250 an overview of the payload bay is an 320 00:13:04,250 --> 00:13:01,440 orbiter if I can get the payload Bay 321 00:13:06,740 --> 00:13:04,260 video rolling here there we go so in the 322 00:13:09,500 --> 00:13:06,750 front of the vehicle you're going to see 323 00:13:11,570 --> 00:13:09,510 the orbiter docking system which is 324 00:13:15,410 --> 00:13:11,580 allows us to actually doc and mate with 325 00:13:16,910 --> 00:13:15,420 the space station on the starboard sill 326 00:13:19,250 --> 00:13:16,920 of the payload bay is the orbiter boom 327 00:13:21,269 --> 00:13:19,260 sensor system that we use for the TPS 328 00:13:23,309 --> 00:13:21,279 inspections 329 00:13:27,449 --> 00:13:23,319 on the opposite ports ill there is the 330 00:13:30,269 --> 00:13:27,459 shuttle robotic arm and here in the 331 00:13:32,519 --> 00:13:30,279 front of the ODS along the trust is the 332 00:13:34,259 --> 00:13:32,529 sensor enclosure and sent assembly for 333 00:13:37,259 --> 00:13:34,269 the storm that's where the two sensors 334 00:13:39,809 --> 00:13:37,269 are located then on the port side wall 335 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:39,819 there in Bay 3 is the avionics enclosure 336 00:13:44,759 --> 00:13:42,490 it's the two piece of hardware on the 337 00:13:46,199 --> 00:13:44,769 payload Bay for storm in the center of 338 00:13:47,910 --> 00:13:46,209 the payload Bay is the Express logistics 339 00:13:49,889 --> 00:13:47,920 carrier 3 it's going to have a lot of 340 00:13:53,519 --> 00:13:49,899 spare parts for Space Station and in the 341 00:13:59,879 --> 00:13:53,529 back is the AMS that rounds out the 342 00:14:00,840 --> 00:13:59,889 cargo bay so with that I think we'll go 343 00:14:01,889 --> 00:14:00,850 ahead and walk you through day by day 344 00:14:02,819 --> 00:14:01,899 through the mission give you the 345 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:02,829 highlights of what we're going to be 346 00:14:07,199 --> 00:14:05,170 accomplished in each day flight day one 347 00:14:09,329 --> 00:14:07,209 of course is dedicated to getting 348 00:14:11,220 --> 00:14:09,339 endeavor into space get her off the 349 00:14:13,769 --> 00:14:11,230 launch pad and Richard and his team will 350 00:14:16,710 --> 00:14:13,779 get her accelerated to 17,500 miles an 351 00:14:18,299 --> 00:14:16,720 hour and then get set up for orbit 352 00:14:21,199 --> 00:14:18,309 operations convert the vehicle from a 353 00:14:23,610 --> 00:14:21,209 launch vehicle to a orbital spacecraft 354 00:14:25,740 --> 00:14:23,620 as soon as we get to orbit crew members 355 00:14:28,049 --> 00:14:25,750 throw a couple switches allow endeavor 356 00:14:29,490 --> 00:14:28,059 to provide power to the AMS payload and 357 00:14:31,799 --> 00:14:29,500 then the ground team here in Mission 358 00:14:33,509 --> 00:14:31,809 Control for the MS folks we'll go ahead 359 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:33,519 and start to activate and check out the 360 00:14:39,540 --> 00:14:36,610 MS payload and make sure that the ride 361 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:39,550 to space did not cause any any issues 362 00:14:44,129 --> 00:14:42,370 with the payload and they'll work that 363 00:14:47,639 --> 00:14:44,139 activation and check out for the first 364 00:14:49,769 --> 00:14:47,649 couple days in the mission will also go 365 00:14:52,079 --> 00:14:49,779 ahead and a couple crew members will get 366 00:14:53,819 --> 00:14:52,089 the shuttle robotic arm take it out for 367 00:14:55,319 --> 00:14:53,829 a short test drive do a check out event 368 00:14:57,350 --> 00:14:55,329 as well to make sure it's all ready to 369 00:14:59,519 --> 00:14:57,360 go for the inspection on flight day two 370 00:15:01,679 --> 00:14:59,529 and then the end of the day we'll wrap 371 00:15:03,269 --> 00:15:01,689 up with their standard downlink of all 372 00:15:04,860 --> 00:15:03,279 the imagery taken during the ascent of 373 00:15:07,079 --> 00:15:04,870 the external tank umbilical well 374 00:15:08,669 --> 00:15:07,089 pictures etc get that down to the ground 375 00:15:10,619 --> 00:15:08,679 team to start analyzing as quickly as 376 00:15:14,639 --> 00:15:10,629 possible to see how we perform during 377 00:15:17,790 --> 00:15:14,649 the asset flight day two of course is 378 00:15:20,100 --> 00:15:17,800 going to be our standard TPS inspection 379 00:15:22,259 --> 00:15:20,110 day I think we'll roll a video here and 380 00:15:25,290 --> 00:15:22,269 show you the robotic operations involved 381 00:15:26,549 --> 00:15:25,300 in that shoulder will come on over to 382 00:15:30,210 --> 00:15:26,559 the opposite side of the vehicle and 383 00:15:33,540 --> 00:15:30,220 pick up the OB SS and move out to the 384 00:15:35,110 --> 00:15:33,550 starboard wing and do a quick called a 385 00:15:39,310 --> 00:15:35,120 flat field survey 386 00:15:41,290 --> 00:15:39,320 a quick look at well look at the ohms 387 00:15:45,430 --> 00:15:41,300 pod their first since we're in a good 388 00:15:47,170 --> 00:15:45,440 position to do that then we'll do a 389 00:15:49,060 --> 00:15:47,180 quick flat field survey allowing the 390 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:49,070 ground team to calibrate the sensors and 391 00:15:54,550 --> 00:15:50,570 then we'll pick up with the start of the 392 00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:54,560 wings survey will be picking up detailed 393 00:15:59,500 --> 00:15:57,290 information on the RCC panels on the 394 00:16:01,540 --> 00:15:59,510 four leading edge of the both wings as 395 00:16:05,050 --> 00:16:01,550 well as the nose cap these are the areas 396 00:16:08,230 --> 00:16:05,060 that receive the highest temperatures on 397 00:16:09,310 --> 00:16:08,240 the re-entry and return to to earth so I 398 00:16:12,100 --> 00:16:09,320 want to make sure that no damage 399 00:16:17,740 --> 00:16:12,110 occurred to those panels on the on the 400 00:16:21,420 --> 00:16:17,750 right up to orbit so they were finishing 401 00:16:26,470 --> 00:16:24,820 door racetrack motions go up and down 402 00:16:28,420 --> 00:16:26,480 the wing to make sure we capture all the 403 00:16:31,030 --> 00:16:28,430 surface area and we'll pause here and 404 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:31,040 take quick look at the t0 umbilical on 405 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:32,690 that side of the vehicle as well as that 406 00:16:37,510 --> 00:16:34,370 ohms pod make sure there's no issues 407 00:16:44,470 --> 00:16:37,520 there then we'll pick up and complete 408 00:16:46,180 --> 00:16:44,480 the port wing survey and of course the 409 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:46,190 ground team will start analyzing this 410 00:16:49,930 --> 00:16:47,930 data as quickly as we can get it to the 411 00:16:51,519 --> 00:16:49,940 ground some of it comes down in real 412 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:51,529 time and and the rest of it will bound 413 00:16:56,199 --> 00:16:53,570 line as soon as the inspection is 414 00:16:57,510 --> 00:16:56,209 complete and hopefully everything will 415 00:17:00,250 --> 00:16:57,520 go well and they'll get all that data 416 00:17:05,860 --> 00:17:00,260 analyzed and turn around and clear the 417 00:17:07,419 --> 00:17:05,870 vehicle by flight day 3 flight 93 so 418 00:17:10,689 --> 00:17:07,429 with the inspection complete the arm 419 00:17:12,970 --> 00:17:10,699 will go ahead and put opss back and do 420 00:17:17,350 --> 00:17:12,980 it's a carriage on the starboard sill 421 00:17:19,990 --> 00:17:17,360 and release it and then we'll go ahead 422 00:17:22,299 --> 00:17:20,000 and take advantage of this to grapple 423 00:17:24,850 --> 00:17:22,309 the ELC payload and stand that config 424 00:17:28,360 --> 00:17:24,860 and be ready to install the ELC right 425 00:17:29,890 --> 00:17:28,370 after docking a couple other activities 426 00:17:32,530 --> 00:17:29,900 will accomplish on flight day two will 427 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:32,540 be a a couple of that space walkers will 428 00:17:35,980 --> 00:17:34,490 check out their their spacesuits make 429 00:17:37,330 --> 00:17:35,990 sure everything is looking good there be 430 00:17:38,710 --> 00:17:37,340 ready to transfer those over to the 431 00:17:41,740 --> 00:17:38,720 space station to get ready for the four 432 00:17:43,180 --> 00:17:41,750 spacewalks and then the rest of the key 433 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:43,190 activities for the day will be checking 434 00:17:46,090 --> 00:17:44,450 out some of the round of those systems 435 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:46,100 for the rendezvous on flight day three 436 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:48,170 that includes centerline camera 437 00:17:51,100 --> 00:17:49,010 installation 438 00:17:54,790 --> 00:17:51,110 the orbiter docking system ring 439 00:17:56,470 --> 00:17:54,800 extension run over tools check out and 440 00:17:58,600 --> 00:17:56,480 for this flight will do a storm tools 441 00:18:00,820 --> 00:17:58,610 check out you'll get the storm laptop 442 00:18:02,500 --> 00:18:00,830 pocket that software fired up and take a 443 00:18:05,740 --> 00:18:02,510 look at the system make sure everything 444 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:05,750 looks good there and that'll lead us 445 00:18:13,540 --> 00:18:11,090 into flight day 3 the rendezvous day the 446 00:18:15,220 --> 00:18:13,550 storm system will go ahead and be be 447 00:18:17,470 --> 00:18:15,230 turned on and ready to start supporting 448 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:17,480 at its acquisition range of about 20,000 449 00:18:23,650 --> 00:18:19,850 feet and we'll start a video here which 450 00:18:25,420 --> 00:18:23,660 occurs inside of that range so the video 451 00:18:27,310 --> 00:18:25,430 starts here just underneath Space 452 00:18:30,580 --> 00:18:27,320 Station we're just about 600 feet out 453 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:30,590 and get ready to start the RPM maneuver 454 00:18:35,890 --> 00:18:33,530 the right of a pitch maneuver commander 455 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:35,900 Kelly will halt the vehicles approach at 456 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:38,090 this point get the initial condition set 457 00:18:44,050 --> 00:18:41,930 up and then kick off the the RPM you'll 458 00:18:45,970 --> 00:18:44,060 see the flash is here are indicative of 459 00:18:48,430 --> 00:18:45,980 the space station crew members taking a 460 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:48,440 lot of very high-resolution digital 461 00:18:53,050 --> 00:18:50,890 images of the entire surfaces of 462 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:53,060 endeavor as it does it's complete 463 00:18:57,490 --> 00:18:56,330 backflip and again this information 464 00:18:59,350 --> 00:18:57,500 we're down link to the ground as well 465 00:19:01,240 --> 00:18:59,360 for the engineers on the ground analyze 466 00:19:05,890 --> 00:19:01,250 and verify that everything on the on the 467 00:19:09,730 --> 00:19:05,900 vehicle looks good once that RPM is 468 00:19:11,470 --> 00:19:09,740 complete mark will go ahead and set up 469 00:19:13,390 --> 00:19:11,480 the right conditions and fly endeavour 470 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:13,400 up in front of the space station on what 471 00:19:17,700 --> 00:19:15,410 we call the v bar it's a velocity vector 472 00:19:20,020 --> 00:19:17,710 that the space station is flying in 473 00:19:21,730 --> 00:19:20,030 helped our approach there and get set up 474 00:19:26,050 --> 00:19:21,740 to start the final approach into the 475 00:19:27,250 --> 00:19:26,060 docking port and as he's flying in it 476 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:27,260 will take a good close look at the 477 00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:29,330 vehicles alignment if any adjustments 478 00:19:32,860 --> 00:19:31,250 are required he'll stop at 30 feet make 479 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:32,870 those adjustments and then push in for 480 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:34,850 the final approach in and docking at the 481 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:41,890 space station okay with that they'll get 482 00:19:46,360 --> 00:19:44,330 we'll go ahead and get the hooks driven 483 00:19:48,310 --> 00:19:46,370 get the two vehicles securely mated 484 00:19:51,220 --> 00:19:48,320 together after all the motion is is 485 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:51,230 successfully damped out and then we'll 486 00:19:54,820 --> 00:19:52,610 go ahead and open the hatches the crews 487 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:54,830 will greet each other and we'll do a 488 00:20:00,550 --> 00:19:56,690 quick safety briefing so the shuttle 489 00:20:02,980 --> 00:20:00,560 crew is up to speed on any any emergency 490 00:20:05,049 --> 00:20:02,990 response actions they might have to take 491 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:05,059 they're docked to the station and then 492 00:20:08,410 --> 00:20:06,890 it'll be time to get to work in that 493 00:20:10,390 --> 00:20:08,420 point I'll turn it over to Derek talk 494 00:20:13,419 --> 00:20:10,400 about activities will accomplish during 495 00:20:15,370 --> 00:20:13,429 the dock time frame okay thanks Gary and 496 00:20:17,890 --> 00:20:15,380 good morning everybody it's a pleasure 497 00:20:19,299 --> 00:20:17,900 to be here today to talk about what I 498 00:20:21,700 --> 00:20:19,309 expect to be a very exciting and very 499 00:20:23,140 --> 00:20:21,710 challenging mission Gary and I have been 500 00:20:24,970 --> 00:20:23,150 working on preparing for this mission 501 00:20:26,860 --> 00:20:24,980 for a number of years so it's it's 502 00:20:30,130 --> 00:20:26,870 pretty gratifying and pretty exciting to 503 00:20:33,100 --> 00:20:30,140 be this close to launch before I pick 504 00:20:34,450 --> 00:20:33,110 back up with the flight day three with 505 00:20:36,190 --> 00:20:34,460 the mission overview I'm going to first 506 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:36,200 talk about the flight directors that are 507 00:20:40,990 --> 00:20:37,850 going to be staffing the mission on the 508 00:20:42,810 --> 00:20:41,000 space station side I'll be the orbit two 509 00:20:45,669 --> 00:20:42,820 or lead flight director for this mission 510 00:20:48,850 --> 00:20:45,679 and the orbit to shift is aligned 511 00:20:51,070 --> 00:20:48,860 basically with the with the last half of 512 00:20:53,049 --> 00:20:51,080 the crew day and ani ba days that my 513 00:20:55,990 --> 00:20:53,059 team will be on console I'll also be on 514 00:20:59,350 --> 00:20:56,000 console for the AMS installation as well 515 00:21:00,970 --> 00:20:59,360 as the lc3 installation Dana weigel is 516 00:21:02,620 --> 00:21:00,980 going to be the orbit one flight 517 00:21:04,180 --> 00:21:02,630 director it's see a picture of Dana 518 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:04,190 there she was selected as a flight 519 00:21:09,700 --> 00:21:06,890 director in 2005 she was the lead flight 520 00:21:12,370 --> 00:21:09,710 director for the STS 123 1 J a mission 521 00:21:15,730 --> 00:21:12,380 so you may recognize her from previous 522 00:21:17,770 --> 00:21:15,740 briefings that that she got here she was 523 00:21:21,250 --> 00:21:17,780 also my orbit one flight director on my 524 00:21:22,540 --> 00:21:21,260 last lead which was STS 120 Dana and I 525 00:21:24,490 --> 00:21:22,550 have worked together a number of times I 526 00:21:26,350 --> 00:21:24,500 look forward to working with her again 527 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:26,360 on this mission as orbit one flight 528 00:21:30,310 --> 00:21:28,250 director she and her team will be on 529 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:30,320 console for the first half of the crew 530 00:21:34,360 --> 00:21:33,050 day which means ani ba days she'll she 531 00:21:35,950 --> 00:21:34,370 and her team will be responsible for 532 00:21:38,490 --> 00:21:35,960 getting the crew prepared for the EBA 533 00:21:42,820 --> 00:21:38,500 and then out the hatch at which point 534 00:21:45,190 --> 00:21:42,830 the orbit 2 team comes on the orbit 3 or 535 00:21:47,380 --> 00:21:45,200 planning flight director on the station 536 00:21:49,510 --> 00:21:47,390 side will be Deena Katella cantella 537 00:21:50,710 --> 00:21:49,520 Deena is one of the newer flight 538 00:21:54,100 --> 00:21:50,720 directors in the office she was selected 539 00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:54,110 in 2008 she's done a large number of 540 00:21:58,770 --> 00:21:57,410 increment shifts on console for the 541 00:22:01,180 --> 00:21:58,780 space station or the shifts between 542 00:22:03,970 --> 00:22:01,190 between shuttle flights but this will be 543 00:22:06,730 --> 00:22:03,980 her first space shuttle assembly mission 544 00:22:09,190 --> 00:22:06,740 and then finally Dave korth is going to 545 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:09,200 be the team for flight director and as 546 00:22:14,290 --> 00:22:11,690 as Gary mentioned team for is basically 547 00:22:16,330 --> 00:22:14,300 a resource that we have in place before 548 00:22:17,769 --> 00:22:16,340 the mission that can work 549 00:22:20,289 --> 00:22:17,779 off console any kind of additional 550 00:22:22,269 --> 00:22:20,299 analysis or assessments that come up 551 00:22:23,980 --> 00:22:22,279 during the mission so in theory if it's 552 00:22:27,010 --> 00:22:23,990 a smooth flight without any surprises or 553 00:22:29,169 --> 00:22:27,020 failures David won't have a lot to do 554 00:22:30,519 --> 00:22:29,179 but that's typically not the case when 555 00:22:33,580 --> 00:22:30,529 you and you are going to something 556 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:33,590 that's complicated so those are the 557 00:22:37,210 --> 00:22:35,210 station flight directors that will be 558 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:37,220 supporting working with me and and their 559 00:22:42,490 --> 00:22:40,010 teams to make this mission happen I'll 560 00:22:44,350 --> 00:22:42,500 now talk about the expedition 27 crew 561 00:22:46,690 --> 00:22:44,360 that will be on the space station when 562 00:22:50,350 --> 00:22:46,700 134 arrives if we could get that still 563 00:22:53,110 --> 00:22:50,360 up there starting on the right in this 564 00:22:56,470 --> 00:22:53,120 picture you can see cut the commander of 565 00:22:59,260 --> 00:22:56,480 the space station dmitry kondratyev to 566 00:23:02,350 --> 00:22:59,270 his left is andrey borisenko next is 567 00:23:04,149 --> 00:23:02,360 Cady Coleman will be one of two US crew 568 00:23:05,889 --> 00:23:04,159 members on the station at the time of 569 00:23:09,909 --> 00:23:05,899 134 and katie is actually on board right 570 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:09,919 now continuing to the left is alexander 571 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:14,570 samokutyaev then paolo nespoli who's the 572 00:23:19,060 --> 00:23:17,330 European Space Agency astronaut beyond 573 00:23:21,100 --> 00:23:19,070 bored for 134 and it's actually on board 574 00:23:24,549 --> 00:23:21,110 today and then finally on the 4th on the 575 00:23:27,159 --> 00:23:24,559 far left is ron garan Dimitri Paulo and 576 00:23:29,350 --> 00:23:27,169 Katie arrived on the station December 577 00:23:32,190 --> 00:23:29,360 17th of last year and they're scheduled 578 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:32,200 to come home May of this year may 2011 579 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:34,970 Andre Alexander and Ron Garan are 580 00:23:39,250 --> 00:23:37,010 scheduled to arrive on station April 581 00:23:40,810 --> 00:23:39,260 sixteenth so early next month and 582 00:23:45,070 --> 00:23:40,820 they're scheduled to come home on sep 583 00:23:47,230 --> 00:23:45,080 tember 2011 September this year and as 584 00:23:49,389 --> 00:23:47,240 has been the case in in past Shuttle 585 00:23:52,149 --> 00:23:49,399 missions we rely quite extensively on 586 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:52,159 the station crew to help us with all of 587 00:23:56,350 --> 00:23:53,570 the activities associated with the 588 00:23:58,480 --> 00:23:56,360 mission specifically the station crew 589 00:24:00,399 --> 00:23:58,490 assists and all the space station 590 00:24:03,279 --> 00:24:00,409 robotic arm activities lending their 591 00:24:05,470 --> 00:24:03,289 expertise and support for those 592 00:24:07,899 --> 00:24:05,480 activities we also depend on the space 593 00:24:10,779 --> 00:24:07,909 space station crew to help us prepare 594 00:24:14,649 --> 00:24:10,789 the crew the EBA crews on the morning of 595 00:24:17,139 --> 00:24:14,659 EBA days and then to to configure post 596 00:24:19,899 --> 00:24:17,149 DBA ani ba days in addition they help 597 00:24:20,889 --> 00:24:19,909 help with the transfer activities and a 598 00:24:24,430 --> 00:24:20,899 lot of the science that we're going to 599 00:24:26,380 --> 00:24:24,440 be doing and if I could have the next 600 00:24:28,389 --> 00:24:26,390 still I'll give you a quick update of 601 00:24:29,769 --> 00:24:28,399 the current configuration of this 602 00:24:33,549 --> 00:24:29,779 station as as it 603 00:24:35,229 --> 00:24:33,559 we'll be as 134 approaches and docks you 604 00:24:37,899 --> 00:24:35,239 can see the two silly spacecraft we 605 00:24:40,869 --> 00:24:37,909 expect to have a progress attached and 606 00:24:42,879 --> 00:24:40,879 we also expect to have a TV to attach to 607 00:24:45,430 --> 00:24:42,889 the station you will notice that this 608 00:24:48,029 --> 00:24:45,440 does not show HTV the expectation is 609 00:24:52,089 --> 00:24:48,039 that the HTV will be unbirth and 610 00:24:55,060 --> 00:24:52,099 deorbited on march the 28s plan despite 611 00:24:58,139 --> 00:24:55,070 the challenges of course due to the 612 00:25:01,089 --> 00:24:58,149 events in japan next still police you 613 00:25:03,399 --> 00:25:01,099 just basically a shot with endeavour 614 00:25:04,629 --> 00:25:03,409 docked to the space station one 615 00:25:08,049 --> 00:25:04,639 interesting thing that will become clear 616 00:25:10,060 --> 00:25:08,059 as as I talk through the subsequent 617 00:25:12,459 --> 00:25:10,070 mission days and specifically the EV a 618 00:25:14,769 --> 00:25:12,469 days we're doing work up and down the 619 00:25:17,649 --> 00:25:14,779 truss we're doing work on the port side 620 00:25:20,829 --> 00:25:17,659 of the truss in terms of ammonia coolant 621 00:25:22,479 --> 00:25:20,839 loops and the lc3 installation we're 622 00:25:26,109 --> 00:25:22,489 doing work on the starboard side of the 623 00:25:28,539 --> 00:25:26,119 truss with the AMS installation and also 624 00:25:31,239 --> 00:25:28,549 the installation of the orbiter boom 625 00:25:33,639 --> 00:25:31,249 sensing system or OBS s on the trust so 626 00:25:35,529 --> 00:25:33,649 a little bit different than previous 627 00:25:38,049 --> 00:25:35,539 flights where we had generally an area 628 00:25:39,310 --> 00:25:38,059 of focus for this mission we've got two 629 00:25:41,499 --> 00:25:39,320 major payloads that will install 630 00:25:43,180 --> 00:25:41,509 robotically and then we have EV a tasks 631 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:43,190 that take us up and down the station 632 00:25:49,930 --> 00:25:47,450 truss and next I'll talk in more detail 633 00:25:51,820 --> 00:25:49,940 about the the two primary payloads that 634 00:25:54,339 --> 00:25:51,830 we have in the orbiter payload Bay which 635 00:25:56,739 --> 00:25:54,349 Gary introduced you to first I'll talk 636 00:25:58,599 --> 00:25:56,749 about express logistics carrier number 637 00:26:01,899 --> 00:25:58,609 three or LC three if I could have the 638 00:26:04,289 --> 00:26:01,909 still excuse me the video and we've got 639 00:26:08,379 --> 00:26:04,299 a number of spares on ELC number three 640 00:26:10,749 --> 00:26:08,389 which are depicted here see first we got 641 00:26:12,940 --> 00:26:10,759 a cargo transport container or CTC which 642 00:26:15,759 --> 00:26:12,950 has a number of spare electrical power 643 00:26:22,180 --> 00:26:15,769 components we have a 1 of 2 s band and 644 00:26:25,599 --> 00:26:22,190 tennis we have a spdm arm spare arm on 645 00:26:28,659 --> 00:26:25,609 the ELC on the opposite side of the ELC 646 00:26:30,099 --> 00:26:28,669 we have an ammonia tank assembly which 647 00:26:32,349 --> 00:26:30,109 can be used to support the external 648 00:26:33,430 --> 00:26:32,359 ammonia cooling loops we have a 649 00:26:37,239 --> 00:26:33,440 high-pressure gas tank with 650 00:26:38,979 --> 00:26:37,249 high-pressure oxygen for the airlock we 651 00:26:41,590 --> 00:26:38,989 have a payload that comes up on the ELC 652 00:26:44,140 --> 00:26:41,600 the space test project 653 00:26:47,860 --> 00:26:44,150 and finally we have the second s-band 654 00:26:49,930 --> 00:26:47,870 antenna assembly so a number of critical 655 00:26:53,049 --> 00:26:49,940 spares that are intended to support the 656 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:53,059 station as it continues its operation 657 00:26:57,460 --> 00:26:55,850 post shuttle of course the other major 658 00:26:59,320 --> 00:26:57,470 palin and the payload bay you heard 659 00:27:01,270 --> 00:26:59,330 heard about quite extensively in the 660 00:27:04,150 --> 00:27:01,280 previous briefing and that's the Alpha 661 00:27:07,390 --> 00:27:04,160 Magnetic Spectrometer AMS too gotta 662 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:07,400 still hear of the processing at KSC and 663 00:27:11,940 --> 00:27:09,890 then I've also got kind of an overview 664 00:27:14,110 --> 00:27:11,950 of the key components they AMS and 665 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:14,120 because of the the detailed he got in 666 00:27:17,980 --> 00:27:15,530 the previous briefing I won't spend a 667 00:27:20,310 --> 00:27:17,990 lot of time talking about the operation 668 00:27:23,110 --> 00:27:20,320 of AMS but suffice it to say that 669 00:27:25,060 --> 00:27:23,120 everybody is extremely excited about the 670 00:27:26,890 --> 00:27:25,070 opportunity that we have to to launch 671 00:27:29,799 --> 00:27:26,900 and activate this payload and there's 672 00:27:31,779 --> 00:27:29,809 tremendous expectations in terms of the 673 00:27:32,799 --> 00:27:31,789 science and the research and the 674 00:27:36,850 --> 00:27:32,809 knowledge that we're going to get from 675 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:36,860 AMS okay with that I'll move back into 676 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:40,010 the the flight day overview picking back 677 00:27:45,399 --> 00:27:43,010 up with flight day three where Gary left 678 00:27:46,990 --> 00:27:45,409 off after the hatches get open the crews 679 00:27:49,149 --> 00:27:47,000 get acclimated they get their safety 680 00:27:52,870 --> 00:27:49,159 safety briefing we hit the ground 681 00:27:55,060 --> 00:27:52,880 running with the ELC three on birth from 682 00:27:57,070 --> 00:27:55,070 the shuttle payload Bay an installation 683 00:28:00,730 --> 00:27:57,080 on the truss and I've got a video 684 00:28:02,470 --> 00:28:00,740 depicting that operation you can see the 685 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:02,480 the payload being pulled out of the 686 00:28:05,649 --> 00:28:04,010 payload Bay using the shuttle arm and 687 00:28:07,659 --> 00:28:05,659 that'll be finkin Vittori operating the 688 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:07,669 shuttle arm they translate the payload 689 00:28:12,370 --> 00:28:09,770 to a predetermined hand off position and 690 00:28:15,430 --> 00:28:12,380 they stop there at that point Greg 691 00:28:20,380 --> 00:28:15,440 Johnson and Greg shamit off then grapple 692 00:28:25,029 --> 00:28:20,390 the lc3 with the station arm and then 693 00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:25,039 they carefully maneuver ELC 32 it's to 694 00:28:30,310 --> 00:28:28,610 its installation site on on the space 695 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:30,320 station truss and one thing that's a 696 00:28:34,149 --> 00:28:32,090 little bit different about both the AMS 697 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:34,159 and the ill c payloads is that there's 698 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:36,530 no additional activity required to make 699 00:28:39,940 --> 00:28:37,850 the connections that connection is 700 00:28:41,890 --> 00:28:39,950 automatic and remotely controlled once 701 00:28:44,049 --> 00:28:41,900 it gets installed on the truss you'll 702 00:28:46,180 --> 00:28:44,059 see here the the mobile transporter with 703 00:28:48,250 --> 00:28:46,190 the station arm attached then translates 704 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:48,260 the work site that's required for the 705 00:28:55,539 --> 00:28:49,850 next day's activities which say ms 706 00:28:58,090 --> 00:28:55,549 install and once we finish 707 00:29:01,629 --> 00:28:58,100 lc3 installed that's basically into 708 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:01,639 flight day three flight day 4 begins our 709 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:04,970 AMS activities and I've also got a video 710 00:29:10,749 --> 00:29:08,330 here that shows shows you that for AMS 711 00:29:12,369 --> 00:29:10,759 installation Foy stolen vittoria will be 712 00:29:14,019 --> 00:29:12,379 operating the shuttle arm and similar to 713 00:29:16,330 --> 00:29:14,029 LC three wheeze the shuttle arm to 714 00:29:18,249 --> 00:29:16,340 extract the payload from the shuttle 715 00:29:20,710 --> 00:29:18,259 payload Bay we maneuver to again a 716 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:20,720 predetermined handoff point at which 717 00:29:25,509 --> 00:29:23,450 point Greg Johnson and Greg shan't off 718 00:29:31,149 --> 00:29:25,519 again on the station arm maneuver the 719 00:29:32,979 --> 00:29:31,159 rmn and grapple the MS payload once 720 00:29:35,769 --> 00:29:32,989 that's complete the shuttle arm backs 721 00:29:37,810 --> 00:29:35,779 off to a viewing position to give us 722 00:29:40,029 --> 00:29:37,820 good views with AMS install operation on 723 00:29:43,869 --> 00:29:40,039 the on the port side excuse me the 724 00:29:46,060 --> 00:29:43,879 starboard side of the truss and at that 725 00:29:47,919 --> 00:29:46,070 point Johnson and Shem Tov carefully 726 00:29:50,769 --> 00:29:47,929 maneuver the AMS to its installation 727 00:29:52,119 --> 00:29:50,779 site on the truss and again this is a in 728 00:29:53,889 --> 00:29:52,129 terms of the power and the data 729 00:29:55,810 --> 00:29:53,899 connections and the actual capture of 730 00:29:58,989 --> 00:29:55,820 the payload on the trust this is a 731 00:30:01,960 --> 00:29:58,999 completely remotely controlled operation 732 00:30:04,450 --> 00:30:01,970 that's controlled by the crew inside the 733 00:30:07,690 --> 00:30:04,460 space station as well as by ground 734 00:30:09,369 --> 00:30:07,700 controller so no II VA's cables are 735 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:09,379 required to support either those 736 00:30:12,639 --> 00:30:11,090 activities then you can see the mobile 737 00:30:16,019 --> 00:30:12,649 transporter of the station arm attached 738 00:30:17,889 --> 00:30:16,029 then translates to the next worksite 739 00:30:19,930 --> 00:30:17,899 required to support the next day's 740 00:30:21,549 --> 00:30:19,940 activities so then the flight day for 741 00:30:23,859 --> 00:30:21,559 we've got ELC three installed on the 742 00:30:26,499 --> 00:30:23,869 trust receiving power and data flight 743 00:30:28,810 --> 00:30:26,509 day for we've got a ms installed on the 744 00:30:31,330 --> 00:30:28,820 truss power applied and at that point 745 00:30:33,639 --> 00:30:31,340 the AMS collaboration who's going to 746 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:33,649 have a team in Mission Control I will 747 00:30:38,590 --> 00:30:35,330 begin all their activation check out 748 00:30:40,330 --> 00:30:38,600 activities on the AMS moving on to 749 00:30:43,090 --> 00:30:40,340 flight day 5 i'll start talking about 750 00:30:45,190 --> 00:30:43,100 our space walks or evaa plans for the 751 00:30:47,409 --> 00:30:45,200 mission and i'll say up front that 752 00:30:50,259 --> 00:30:47,419 you'll get a detailed briefing coming up 753 00:30:52,479 --> 00:30:50,269 next from our lead DBA officer allison 754 00:30:55,330 --> 00:30:52,489 Bolinger so i'm not going to go into a 755 00:30:56,619 --> 00:30:55,340 lot of detail about the about the EVs 756 00:30:58,629 --> 00:30:56,629 and the sequence but i'll hit the high 757 00:31:00,430 --> 00:30:58,639 points and and let's and help you guys 758 00:31:04,210 --> 00:31:00,440 understand what the primary objectives 759 00:31:06,970 --> 00:31:04,220 are EBA one will be conducted by voice 760 00:31:09,310 --> 00:31:06,980 tell and shama tov drood as Gary 761 00:31:11,710 --> 00:31:09,320 mentioned it has conducted 762 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:11,720 previous TVA's during the last Hubble 763 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:13,370 servicing mission and this will be Greg 764 00:31:19,210 --> 00:31:17,090 Shama Tom's first dva overnight between 765 00:31:21,129 --> 00:31:19,220 flight and eights 4 and 5 the crew slept 766 00:31:23,799 --> 00:31:21,139 in the US air lock doing what what we 767 00:31:25,990 --> 00:31:23,809 call the campout pre-breathe protocol so 768 00:31:27,940 --> 00:31:26,000 the night before before when they went 769 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:27,950 to bed on flight day for the crew is 770 00:31:33,610 --> 00:31:29,690 buttoned up in the airlock we close the 771 00:31:35,379 --> 00:31:33,620 hatch we reduce the pressure to 10 2 and 772 00:31:38,350 --> 00:31:35,389 then they breathe an oxygen-rich 773 00:31:39,970 --> 00:31:38,360 environment overnight in order to purge 774 00:31:41,980 --> 00:31:39,980 nitrogen from their blood and tissue 775 00:31:44,740 --> 00:31:41,990 when they wake up on flight day 5 776 00:31:46,539 --> 00:31:44,750 they're ready to go we open the hat 777 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:46,549 bring the pressure back up to the 778 00:31:50,649 --> 00:31:49,250 nominal pressure 14-7 open the hatch let 779 00:31:51,759 --> 00:31:50,659 them do what they need to do in the 780 00:31:55,029 --> 00:31:51,769 morning and then we start getting in 781 00:31:58,119 --> 00:31:55,039 suited up there's two primary objectives 782 00:31:59,980 --> 00:31:58,129 on EV a1 the first of which is the 783 00:32:02,169 --> 00:31:59,990 materials International Space Station 784 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:02,179 experiment or missy experiment and this 785 00:32:06,580 --> 00:32:04,610 is the next in a series of experiments 786 00:32:10,590 --> 00:32:06,590 that are sponsored by the Department of 787 00:32:12,549 --> 00:32:10,600 Defense that look at the effective on 788 00:32:14,350 --> 00:32:12,559 materials over time of space 789 00:32:16,570 --> 00:32:14,360 environments we're first going to 790 00:32:18,999 --> 00:32:16,580 retrieve to Missy payloads that are 791 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:19,009 currently on Space Station Missy 7a and 792 00:32:24,820 --> 00:32:22,850 Missy 7b we go out to ELC to which was 793 00:32:27,100 --> 00:32:24,830 installed when we arrived we pull off 794 00:32:29,009 --> 00:32:27,110 the Missy 7a and 7b we bring those 795 00:32:33,490 --> 00:32:29,019 payloads install them in the payload Bay 796 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:33,500 then we pick up Missy 8 which is the the 797 00:32:36,700 --> 00:32:35,090 next in the line of Missy's which we 798 00:32:40,779 --> 00:32:36,710 brought up on this flight plug it in on 799 00:32:44,740 --> 00:32:40,789 alc to the other primary objective on 800 00:32:46,899 --> 00:32:44,750 this on this EBA is to set up for an 801 00:32:47,860 --> 00:32:46,909 ammonia fill activity on EV a2 and I'll 802 00:32:50,110 --> 00:32:47,870 just give you a little bit of background 803 00:32:52,119 --> 00:32:50,120 each of the power modules on the space 804 00:32:54,940 --> 00:32:52,129 station as an ammonia cooling loop that 805 00:32:56,919 --> 00:32:54,950 that runs continuously and keeps the 806 00:32:59,950 --> 00:32:56,929 batteries and other components on on the 807 00:33:01,869 --> 00:32:59,960 power channel within limits this p-6 p 808 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:01,879 btcs which we're going to service on 809 00:33:08,039 --> 00:33:05,690 this mission has a slow leak that over 810 00:33:10,110 --> 00:33:08,049 time could cause the loss of that loop 811 00:33:12,369 --> 00:33:10,120 probably a year and a half to two years 812 00:33:14,110 --> 00:33:12,379 potentially depending on how the loop 813 00:33:15,820 --> 00:33:14,120 behaves so what we're going to do on 814 00:33:18,490 --> 00:33:15,830 this mission is we're going to top off 815 00:33:21,789 --> 00:33:18,500 that PB TCS ammonia cooling loop such 816 00:33:23,049 --> 00:33:21,799 that we extend a life ideally if the 817 00:33:23,230 --> 00:33:23,059 field goes well we're going to send a 818 00:33:26,350 --> 00:33:23,240 lie 819 00:33:28,570 --> 00:33:26,360 a number of years so what we do on EV a 820 00:33:31,510 --> 00:33:28,580 number one is start the setup for the 821 00:33:36,220 --> 00:33:31,520 actual ammonia fill on Ani VA too we're 822 00:33:38,410 --> 00:33:36,230 out ammonia coolant lines we vent night 823 00:33:40,150 --> 00:33:38,420 a nitrogen pad that's in that line to 824 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:40,160 protect the line and that we basically 825 00:33:44,950 --> 00:33:41,690 set up the pipeline that we're going to 826 00:33:46,330 --> 00:33:44,960 use on EBA to to make that to do that 827 00:33:47,710 --> 00:33:46,340 ammonia fill and again you'll have more 828 00:33:51,220 --> 00:33:47,720 detail about that during the EV a 829 00:33:54,430 --> 00:33:51,230 briefing coming up we also on EV a one 830 00:33:57,100 --> 00:33:54,440 install a couple of antennas on the 831 00:33:59,350 --> 00:33:57,110 external surface of the lab and those 832 00:34:01,840 --> 00:33:59,360 antennas are going to allow payloads and 833 00:34:04,870 --> 00:34:01,850 hardware on the external portions of the 834 00:34:07,180 --> 00:34:04,880 trust just to communicate why wirelessly 835 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:07,190 have basically data transmission between 836 00:34:12,070 --> 00:34:10,010 those payloads the payloads and hardware 837 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:12,080 on the trust to computers inside the 838 00:34:16,990 --> 00:34:14,330 space station so those are the major 839 00:34:19,930 --> 00:34:17,000 objectives objectives of EV a 1 and 840 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:19,940 estimated EBA duration as it all as it 841 00:34:28,180 --> 00:34:22,010 is for all the VA's is six hours and 30 842 00:34:31,180 --> 00:34:28,190 minutes okay we can go to the next day 843 00:34:34,119 --> 00:34:31,190 which we flight day six of course we 844 00:34:37,240 --> 00:34:34,129 start off flight day six with OBS s 845 00:34:41,290 --> 00:34:37,250 grapple and handoff and I've got video 846 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:41,300 portraying that here for this activity 847 00:34:45,820 --> 00:34:43,490 Greg Johnson & cady coleman this time 848 00:34:48,070 --> 00:34:45,830 will be operating station arm and they 849 00:34:50,260 --> 00:34:48,080 will remove the OBS s from the payload 850 00:34:53,099 --> 00:34:50,270 bay they'll present it to the shuttle 851 00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:53,109 arm operated by 4 cyl inventory and 852 00:34:59,500 --> 00:34:57,410 Andrew and Roberto will use the station 853 00:35:01,120 --> 00:34:59,510 arm excuse me the shuttle arm to grapple 854 00:35:02,670 --> 00:35:01,130 they will be SS which is the config that 855 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:02,680 it will stand for the next several days 856 00:35:07,900 --> 00:35:06,050 flight day 6 is the day that we preserve 857 00:35:09,790 --> 00:35:07,910 time for a focused inspection if 858 00:35:12,660 --> 00:35:09,800 required that's a typical thing that we 859 00:35:15,010 --> 00:35:12,670 have done on all the recent missions 860 00:35:16,900 --> 00:35:15,020 basically if there are areas of interest 861 00:35:17,950 --> 00:35:16,910 or anything that folk that the analysts 862 00:35:20,050 --> 00:35:17,960 on the ground need to look at more 863 00:35:21,910 --> 00:35:20,060 closely based on the data that was 864 00:35:25,630 --> 00:35:21,920 gathered early in the mission we would 865 00:35:27,670 --> 00:35:25,640 use the OB SS or the room sensor system 866 00:35:31,240 --> 00:35:27,680 to go take a look at those areas of 867 00:35:32,500 --> 00:35:31,250 interest the likelihood is that we won't 868 00:35:35,020 --> 00:35:32,510 need that time but we've got the time 869 00:35:36,720 --> 00:35:35,030 available on this day if we do need it 870 00:35:38,550 --> 00:35:36,730 do need it 871 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:38,560 the other things we do on flight day six 872 00:35:42,420 --> 00:35:40,450 we do work in some well-deserved 873 00:35:43,650 --> 00:35:42,430 off-duty time for the Endeavour crew 874 00:35:46,230 --> 00:35:43,660 since they've been working pretty hard 875 00:35:48,240 --> 00:35:46,240 up to this point and then we start the 876 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:48,250 preparations for EV a number two so we 877 00:35:53,430 --> 00:35:51,010 get all the call the tools required for 878 00:35:56,010 --> 00:35:53,440 EBA to gathered everything configured 879 00:35:59,580 --> 00:35:56,020 properly we do a final procedure review 880 00:36:01,170 --> 00:35:59,590 look at the last details even see if 881 00:36:04,830 --> 00:36:01,180 anything's change from what the pre 882 00:36:06,900 --> 00:36:04,840 flight plan was and then EV 82 will be 883 00:36:09,750 --> 00:36:06,910 conducted by Drew Foy stolen Mike Fink 884 00:36:11,550 --> 00:36:09,760 and and then they at the end of the day 885 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:11,560 we put them in the airlock and they 886 00:36:17,910 --> 00:36:14,770 start their campout activities flight 887 00:36:21,870 --> 00:36:17,920 day seven we wake the crew up and Drew 888 00:36:23,599 --> 00:36:21,880 and and Mike come out of the airlock to 889 00:36:28,530 --> 00:36:23,609 do what they need to do in the morning 890 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:28,540 eat breakfast etc and then we start the 891 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:32,170 EBA off with four EV a to the plan is to 892 00:36:37,020 --> 00:36:34,570 have Greg shamit off inside is the IBA I 893 00:36:39,060 --> 00:36:37,030 didn't mention on EV a one Mike Fink 894 00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:39,070 will be inside as I VA and basically the 895 00:36:43,109 --> 00:36:41,410 IBA is the astronaut inside the space 896 00:36:44,700 --> 00:36:43,119 station that has the detailed procedures 897 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:44,710 for the EBA and he's he's the 898 00:36:48,810 --> 00:36:46,570 choreographer or the basically the 899 00:36:50,940 --> 00:36:48,820 leader of the EBA he steps the EV a crew 900 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:50,950 through all of their activities and does 901 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:52,450 all the coordination with with the 902 00:36:59,190 --> 00:36:53,770 ground as the crew works through their 903 00:37:02,520 --> 00:36:59,200 tasks the primary objectives on EV a2 or 904 00:37:03,780 --> 00:37:02,530 again as part of this pvt CS or ammonia 905 00:37:06,060 --> 00:37:03,790 cooling loop fill that I mentioned 906 00:37:08,010 --> 00:37:06,070 during DBA one we did the prep for four 907 00:37:10,050 --> 00:37:08,020 EV a2 we actually we actually do the 908 00:37:13,020 --> 00:37:10,060 fill we flow ammonia through these lines 909 00:37:15,150 --> 00:37:13,030 that we pre configured on EV a1 and we 910 00:37:17,550 --> 00:37:15,160 transfer approximately six to eight 911 00:37:19,590 --> 00:37:17,560 pounds of ammonia from an ammonia tank 912 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:19,600 assembly with that includes a reservoir 913 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:22,930 of ammonia to the leaking p btcs loop in 914 00:37:28,590 --> 00:37:25,330 addition to the the ammonia operations 915 00:37:31,260 --> 00:37:28,600 we also perform a lubrication operation 916 00:37:34,050 --> 00:37:31,270 on the port solar alpha rotary joint or 917 00:37:36,690 --> 00:37:34,060 port Sarge and this lubrication 918 00:37:38,550 --> 00:37:36,700 operation is set as similar to what 919 00:37:40,470 --> 00:37:38,560 we've done over the past several flights 920 00:37:43,109 --> 00:37:40,480 some of you may recall that we had an 921 00:37:44,670 --> 00:37:43,119 issue with the Sarge's in that there was 922 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:44,680 damage being done to the race rings 923 00:37:50,109 --> 00:37:46,690 which was affecting their performance 924 00:37:51,549 --> 00:37:50,119 was causing unacceptable vibration we 925 00:37:53,140 --> 00:37:51,559 developed a technique by which we can 926 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:53,150 lubricate those sergeants in order to 927 00:37:58,210 --> 00:37:56,210 fix that problem and avoid additional 928 00:37:59,950 --> 00:37:58,220 damage in the future so what we're doing 929 00:38:01,749 --> 00:37:59,960 on the port Sarge here is basically a 930 00:38:03,039 --> 00:38:01,759 precautionary measure they head off any 931 00:38:07,180 --> 00:38:03,049 problems we might have in the future 932 00:38:08,980 --> 00:38:07,190 with this Sarge once the once the fill 933 00:38:11,529 --> 00:38:08,990 is done we have to do ammonia venting 934 00:38:13,029 --> 00:38:11,539 during this EV a so we flow the ammonia 935 00:38:15,819 --> 00:38:13,039 from the ammonia tank assembly to the 936 00:38:17,799 --> 00:38:15,829 leaking galoot at that point we close 937 00:38:20,079 --> 00:38:17,809 valves open cuties but then we've got 938 00:38:22,390 --> 00:38:20,089 ammonia isolated in some of the lines 939 00:38:24,970 --> 00:38:22,400 along the trust with with no pressure 940 00:38:27,489 --> 00:38:24,980 relief basically so once we completed 941 00:38:30,849 --> 00:38:27,499 the fill we're going to do to ammonia 942 00:38:33,900 --> 00:38:30,859 vents that clear ammonia from the lines 943 00:38:37,809 --> 00:38:33,910 that we used to fill the leaking loop 944 00:38:40,089 --> 00:38:37,819 and finally the spdm latching end 945 00:38:43,989 --> 00:38:40,099 effector we're going to do a lubrication 946 00:38:46,450 --> 00:38:43,999 activity on the spdm Lee or latching end 947 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:46,460 effector and what that involves is is 948 00:38:52,450 --> 00:38:49,490 actually presenting this the spdm lead 949 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:52,460 to an EV a crew member with the with the 950 00:38:56,620 --> 00:38:54,890 spdm on the end of the station arm the 951 00:38:58,809 --> 00:38:56,630 the crew member performs that lube and 952 00:39:01,630 --> 00:38:58,819 then the SPD and backs off again you'll 953 00:39:04,210 --> 00:39:01,640 get details in the next briefing but EV 954 00:39:08,589 --> 00:39:04,220 a to again is estimated at the nominal 955 00:39:11,559 --> 00:39:08,599 time of six hours and 30 minutes ok 956 00:39:13,989 --> 00:39:11,569 moving on the flight day 8 flight 28 and 957 00:39:16,059 --> 00:39:13,999 will be a prep day of course for EBA 958 00:39:18,309 --> 00:39:16,069 three occurring the next day we're also 959 00:39:20,079 --> 00:39:18,319 going to work in some more off-duty time 960 00:39:22,479 --> 00:39:20,089 for the crews will do the tool 961 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:22,489 configuration for EV a 3 and then we'll 962 00:39:28,839 --> 00:39:26,690 do EBA 3 procedure review and normally 963 00:39:30,220 --> 00:39:28,849 on this is the day at which we put the 964 00:39:32,289 --> 00:39:30,230 crew in the airlock for what i call the 965 00:39:34,870 --> 00:39:32,299 campout protocol which is what we did on 966 00:39:38,670 --> 00:39:34,880 EBA is one and two for flight day eight 967 00:39:41,650 --> 00:39:38,680 we are testing out or trying out a new 968 00:39:43,269 --> 00:39:41,660 pre-breathe protocol what it's referred 969 00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:43,279 to as the insuit light exercise 970 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:46,249 pre-breathe protocol or aisle for short 971 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:49,130 is le and the difference with this 972 00:39:53,229 --> 00:39:50,930 protocol is that it doesn't require the 973 00:39:55,479 --> 00:39:53,239 overnight campout that I described for 974 00:39:57,849 --> 00:39:55,489 EV a's one and two and that were used 975 00:40:00,519 --> 00:39:57,859 for most of the previous ebas on the 976 00:40:03,020 --> 00:40:00,529 last several flights so you know in 977 00:40:05,450 --> 00:40:03,030 terms of complexity in terms of 978 00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:05,460 the quality of life of the crew this out 979 00:40:09,620 --> 00:40:07,530 protocol is a is a pretty significant 980 00:40:11,450 --> 00:40:09,630 upgrade because we don't have we don't 981 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:11,460 have that point the night before where 982 00:40:14,540 --> 00:40:13,170 the where the 2 eb a crew has to go in 983 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:14,550 the airlock and we shut the hatch and 984 00:40:18,410 --> 00:40:15,810 they're forced to spend the night over 985 00:40:20,780 --> 00:40:18,420 lot overnight in the airlock with this 986 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:20,790 in suit light exercise or I'll protocol 987 00:40:24,530 --> 00:40:23,010 the night before the EV a looks exactly 988 00:40:26,990 --> 00:40:24,540 like any other night during the mission 989 00:40:30,350 --> 00:40:27,000 they wake up they don't have to stay on 990 00:40:32,060 --> 00:40:30,360 the portable breathing apparatuses they 991 00:40:33,650 --> 00:40:32,070 don't have to stay on the oxygen masks 992 00:40:38,030 --> 00:40:33,660 so up into the point where they actually 993 00:40:41,240 --> 00:40:38,040 begin the EV a prep on the morning of it 994 00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:41,250 looks just like any other day the other 995 00:40:44,420 --> 00:40:42,690 issue that some of you folks may be 996 00:40:45,950 --> 00:40:44,430 familiar with is that during camp out 997 00:40:47,900 --> 00:40:45,960 when we have the airlock at ten to 998 00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:47,910 there's failures on the station that can 999 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:49,850 automatically repressurize the airlock 1000 00:40:54,530 --> 00:40:53,010 and we've had that occur at least once 1001 00:40:56,690 --> 00:40:54,540 probably more than that on previous 1002 00:40:58,100 --> 00:40:56,700 missions with this into light exercise 1003 00:41:01,220 --> 00:40:58,110 protocol you're not exposed to that 1004 00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:01,230 because the the spacewalk and crew is 1005 00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:03,810 that a normal normal pressure going 1006 00:41:08,690 --> 00:41:05,970 through their normal routine so we think 1007 00:41:10,430 --> 00:41:08,700 this is an improvement we think this is 1008 00:41:13,790 --> 00:41:10,440 an improvement over the campout protocol 1009 00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:13,800 and of course you know the main thing 1010 00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:16,170 we're after here is crew safety we're 1011 00:41:20,890 --> 00:41:18,090 trying to all of these protocols are 1012 00:41:24,500 --> 00:41:20,900 designed to prevent the bends so 1013 00:41:26,030 --> 00:41:24,510 previous of course leading up to this we 1014 00:41:28,100 --> 00:41:26,040 put the I'll protocol through all the 1015 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:28,110 standard medical reviews and tests that 1016 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:30,330 both the campout and the exercise 1017 00:41:34,580 --> 00:41:32,370 pre-breathe protocols have been 1018 00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:34,590 subjected to subjected to and 1019 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:35,850 everybody's comfortable that it's 1020 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:38,610 completely safe and we think it offers 1021 00:41:44,780 --> 00:41:40,290 some significant advantages over the 1022 00:41:48,710 --> 00:41:44,790 campout protocol so flight day flight 1023 00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:48,720 day nine will be drew Feustel and Mike 1024 00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:51,090 Fink performing the EBA EBA number three 1025 00:41:55,820 --> 00:41:54,330 and we'll have Mike excuse me Greg shama 1026 00:41:59,330 --> 00:41:55,830 Tov inside the space station 1027 00:42:02,060 --> 00:41:59,340 orchestrating the EBA as the IV or I be 1028 00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:02,070 a crew member the primary objectives on 1029 00:42:07,610 --> 00:42:04,530 a VA number three or first to take a 1030 00:42:10,820 --> 00:42:07,620 power data grapple fixture or PDGF which 1031 00:42:13,010 --> 00:42:10,830 is but is the base from which the 1032 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:13,020 station robotic arm operates we're going 1033 00:42:16,849 --> 00:42:15,450 to take a PDGF from the spare PDGF from 1034 00:42:18,529 --> 00:42:16,859 the US side of the space station 1035 00:42:20,479 --> 00:42:18,539 we're going to translate that hardware 1036 00:42:22,579 --> 00:42:20,489 to the FGB and we're going to install 1037 00:42:25,370 --> 00:42:22,589 that power data grapple fixture on the 1038 00:42:27,109 --> 00:42:25,380 FGB in addition to the structural 1039 00:42:30,229 --> 00:42:27,119 installation we'll do a power and data 1040 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:30,239 installation so that that fgb PDGF will 1041 00:42:34,999 --> 00:42:33,450 be as functional as as the grapple 1042 00:42:37,789 --> 00:42:35,009 fixtures on other places on the US 1043 00:42:39,769 --> 00:42:37,799 segment once that task is complete we'll 1044 00:42:43,609 --> 00:42:39,779 have at least the option in the future 1045 00:42:46,700 --> 00:42:43,619 to use the station robotic arm based on 1046 00:42:50,569 --> 00:42:46,710 the FGB for any task that may be 1047 00:42:54,620 --> 00:42:50,579 required in the future second major 1048 00:42:56,989 --> 00:42:54,630 objective on EV a3 is the rewiring of 1049 00:42:59,420 --> 00:42:56,999 some of the external cables that route 1050 00:43:01,420 --> 00:42:59,430 power from the US segment to the Russian 1051 00:43:03,559 --> 00:43:01,430 segment I mean we've had the capability 1052 00:43:05,809 --> 00:43:03,569 basically from the beginning of station 1053 00:43:08,329 --> 00:43:05,819 to route extra power not required on the 1054 00:43:10,309 --> 00:43:08,339 on the US side to the Russian side in 1055 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:10,319 order to augment their their capability 1056 00:43:15,710 --> 00:43:12,690 their power produced by their arrays as 1057 00:43:17,720 --> 00:43:15,720 it exists today the the wiring and the 1058 00:43:19,670 --> 00:43:17,730 channelization is not optimal in the de 1059 00:43:21,710 --> 00:43:19,680 single failure on the US side can have a 1060 00:43:23,599 --> 00:43:21,720 significant impact on on the Russian 1061 00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:23,609 segment what we're doing on EV a3 is 1062 00:43:29,299 --> 00:43:27,450 rewiring that connection such that we're 1063 00:43:30,589 --> 00:43:29,309 not as susceptible to failures in other 1064 00:43:32,509 --> 00:43:30,599 words we can have a failure on the US 1065 00:43:35,210 --> 00:43:32,519 side and the impacts on the Russian side 1066 00:43:37,130 --> 00:43:35,220 will be significantly minimized so 1067 00:43:39,529 --> 00:43:37,140 that's it's an enhancement but it's a 1068 00:43:40,849 --> 00:43:39,539 significant improvement and it it 1069 00:43:44,450 --> 00:43:40,859 improves our ability to withstand 1070 00:43:45,950 --> 00:43:44,460 failures in the future let's see and 1071 00:43:49,479 --> 00:43:45,960 that those are the two major objectives 1072 00:43:53,420 --> 00:43:49,489 ani ba three in again nominal 630 1073 00:43:55,039 --> 00:43:53,430 duration on EV a three and one other 1074 00:43:59,029 --> 00:43:55,049 comment on the Institute light exercise 1075 00:44:01,339 --> 00:43:59,039 protocol the plan the plan is to use it 1076 00:44:02,269 --> 00:44:01,349 for EV a three and then at the end of 1077 00:44:04,279 --> 00:44:02,279 the day we're going to have a 1078 00:44:05,870 --> 00:44:04,289 conversation with the crew and also a 1079 00:44:07,849 --> 00:44:05,880 tag up with the flight controllers to 1080 00:44:09,620 --> 00:44:07,859 talk about how it went were there any 1081 00:44:12,380 --> 00:44:09,630 surprises where was there anything that 1082 00:44:15,019 --> 00:44:12,390 didn't work as we expected is there a 1083 00:44:17,420 --> 00:44:15,029 reason not to go do it for ev a four if 1084 00:44:20,059 --> 00:44:17,430 everything turns out well if there were 1085 00:44:22,220 --> 00:44:20,069 no surprises no issues i encountered the 1086 00:44:24,470 --> 00:44:22,230 plan will be to use that in suit light 1087 00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:24,480 exercise protocol for EV a four as well 1088 00:44:28,729 --> 00:44:27,210 if there were surprises or the things 1089 00:44:29,499 --> 00:44:28,739 we're not comfortable with we'll just 1090 00:44:32,699 --> 00:44:29,509 download 1091 00:44:34,779 --> 00:44:32,709 to the campout protocol for ev a for 1092 00:44:38,819 --> 00:44:34,789 that takes us through flight day nine 1093 00:44:41,139 --> 00:44:38,829 moving on a flight date 10 we are as 1094 00:44:44,709 --> 00:44:41,149 probably many of you know we're leaving 1095 00:44:46,779 --> 00:44:44,719 the OB SS or the boom on station for 1096 00:44:48,339 --> 00:44:46,789 during this mission so because we're 1097 00:44:50,379 --> 00:44:48,349 doing that the orbiter needs to do their 1098 00:44:53,229 --> 00:44:50,389 late inspection that they normally do 1099 00:44:54,879 --> 00:44:53,239 post undock during the docking period 1100 00:44:57,189 --> 00:44:54,889 flight day 10 as they were going to do 1101 00:45:00,489 --> 00:44:57,199 that and I'll hand back to Gary to talk 1102 00:45:02,649 --> 00:45:00,499 about the details that okay so we'll go 1103 00:45:05,589 --> 00:45:02,659 into a dock light inspection on on this 1104 00:45:08,319 --> 00:45:05,599 flight day and we have done this once 1105 00:45:09,539 --> 00:45:08,329 before back on SCS 123 of course the 1106 00:45:14,199 --> 00:45:09,549 space station was in different 1107 00:45:15,999 --> 00:45:14,209 configuration back then so you see the 1108 00:45:18,789 --> 00:45:16,009 animation going on here where you can 1109 00:45:21,789 --> 00:45:18,799 see the gem module right above the 1110 00:45:23,409 --> 00:45:21,799 shoulder of the shuttle arm and some of 1111 00:45:25,479 --> 00:45:23,419 the other station components kind of 1112 00:45:28,269 --> 00:45:25,489 constrained the space we have to work in 1113 00:45:30,099 --> 00:45:28,279 so this is a unique trajectory and 1114 00:45:32,979 --> 00:45:30,109 procedure to do this we actually did 1115 00:45:35,739 --> 00:45:32,989 execute this on orbit on sts-131 due to 1116 00:45:38,109 --> 00:45:35,749 their ke band antenna failure so we have 1117 00:45:39,519 --> 00:45:38,119 run it on orbit will be flying the arm 1118 00:45:41,249 --> 00:45:39,529 in exactly the same way as we did on 1119 00:45:44,889 --> 00:45:41,259 that mission we have made a couple 1120 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:44,899 improvements with camera views etc but 1121 00:45:49,959 --> 00:45:46,729 otherwise this will be a second time 1122 00:45:52,059 --> 00:45:49,969 we're running this procedure so we got 1123 00:45:57,489 --> 00:45:52,069 part of the starboard wing taken care of 1124 00:46:04,299 --> 00:45:57,499 here you see the nose cap and then we 1125 00:46:06,339 --> 00:46:04,309 come on over to the port wing and it 1126 00:46:08,229 --> 00:46:06,349 turns out this this procedure and data 1127 00:46:10,659 --> 00:46:08,239 collection is very very close to the 1128 00:46:12,279 --> 00:46:10,669 capability that we have on both flight 1129 00:46:14,169 --> 00:46:12,289 day 2 and the nominal undock late 1130 00:46:15,669 --> 00:46:14,179 inspection but with some of the 1131 00:46:17,469 --> 00:46:15,679 constraints of this base station 1132 00:46:20,049 --> 00:46:17,479 hardware we are going to be just a 1133 00:46:22,419 --> 00:46:20,059 little bit shy but we normally get but 1134 00:46:24,459 --> 00:46:22,429 again the data on sts-131 was very good 1135 00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:24,469 and team was very pleased with the 1136 00:46:29,189 --> 00:46:25,729 results so we'll be doing that again 1137 00:46:31,899 --> 00:46:29,199 here it's back to you dirt okay 1138 00:46:34,379 --> 00:46:31,909 continuing on with the flight date and 1139 00:46:36,339 --> 00:46:34,389 activities we're going to do 1140 00:46:38,559 --> 00:46:36,349 preparations for a be a four-course 1141 00:46:39,909 --> 00:46:38,569 standard pre DBA stuff we're going to 1142 00:46:42,339 --> 00:46:39,919 get the tools configured we're going to 1143 00:46:43,510 --> 00:46:42,349 get the procedures reviewed and the 1144 00:46:47,410 --> 00:46:43,520 spacewalkers 4e 1145 00:46:49,540 --> 00:46:47,420 a four will be back to Mike Fink a CBE 1146 00:46:52,330 --> 00:46:49,550 one so this will be his first shot at 1147 00:46:56,650 --> 00:46:52,340 eb1 and he'll be executing a TBA for 1148 00:46:58,720 --> 00:46:56,660 with Greg shamba Tov moving on to flight 1149 00:47:01,840 --> 00:46:58,730 day 11 early in the day we're going to 1150 00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:01,850 do the handoff hand off the OBS s from 1151 00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:03,650 the station onto the shuttle arm I've 1152 00:47:08,170 --> 00:47:05,770 got some video here that shows that and 1153 00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:08,180 greg johnson and Cady Coleman will be 1154 00:47:12,010 --> 00:47:10,490 operating the station arm and they'll 1155 00:47:16,510 --> 00:47:12,020 maneuver to a point where they can 1156 00:47:22,690 --> 00:47:16,520 grapple the OBS S on the grapple fixture 1157 00:47:25,060 --> 00:47:22,700 basically in the center of the boom once 1158 00:47:26,850 --> 00:47:25,070 the OBS s is grappled by the station arm 1159 00:47:29,890 --> 00:47:26,860 the shuttle arm will back off and then 1160 00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:29,900 move to a maneuver to a viewing position 1161 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:33,530 and the goal here is that is to maneuver 1162 00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:36,530 the OBS S on the station arm to a point 1163 00:47:42,220 --> 00:47:39,010 near enough to the s-1 trust that the 1164 00:47:44,350 --> 00:47:42,230 spacewalkers can then take the arm or 1165 00:47:46,330 --> 00:47:44,360 take the boom from the station arm and 1166 00:47:49,270 --> 00:47:46,340 then install it on the s-1 trust and 1167 00:47:53,470 --> 00:47:49,280 again that in terms of major objectives 1168 00:47:56,410 --> 00:47:53,480 for this EBA the goal is to stow the OBS 1169 00:47:59,010 --> 00:47:56,420 S on the station trust on the s-1 trust 1170 00:48:02,200 --> 00:47:59,020 the reason we're doing that is because 1171 00:48:05,530 --> 00:48:02,210 we can use the OBS s to significantly 1172 00:48:08,830 --> 00:48:05,540 extend the station arm reach and folks 1173 00:48:10,570 --> 00:48:08,840 who are familiar with sts 120 and the 1174 00:48:12,670 --> 00:48:10,580 solar array repair that we ended up 1175 00:48:14,890 --> 00:48:12,680 doing on ebay for know that that that's 1176 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:14,900 one of the we use the OBS S on the 1177 00:48:19,390 --> 00:48:17,450 station arm to get para jet ski out 1178 00:48:21,550 --> 00:48:19,400 close enough to actually install the 1179 00:48:23,380 --> 00:48:21,560 cufflinks and repair the tear in the 1180 00:48:26,260 --> 00:48:23,390 solar array so that was a real world 1181 00:48:28,090 --> 00:48:26,270 example of how the OBS s can be used in 1182 00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:28,100 order to extend the reach of the soul of 1183 00:48:33,340 --> 00:48:30,650 the station arm and get spacewalking 1184 00:48:35,860 --> 00:48:33,350 astronauts or to get spacewalking 1185 00:48:37,090 --> 00:48:35,870 astronauts two points at the extreme 1186 00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:37,100 ends of the trust that we wouldn't 1187 00:48:42,130 --> 00:48:39,650 otherwise be able to reach another thing 1188 00:48:43,750 --> 00:48:42,140 I'll point out is it on EV a on EV a 1189 00:48:46,660 --> 00:48:43,760 four on the CBA we're actually going to 1190 00:48:49,510 --> 00:48:46,670 be removing the existing grapple fixture 1191 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:49,520 on the lbs s and we're going to be again 1192 00:48:53,140 --> 00:48:50,930 we're going to be retrieving a spare 1193 00:48:55,030 --> 00:48:53,150 PDGF power data grapple fixture from 1194 00:48:57,339 --> 00:48:55,040 another location on the station we're 1195 00:48:59,829 --> 00:48:57,349 going to install that PDGF on the 1196 00:49:02,229 --> 00:48:59,839 into the OBS s so normally as you saw in 1197 00:49:04,630 --> 00:49:02,239 that in that video the station arm can 1198 00:49:06,579 --> 00:49:04,640 only grapple the OBS s in the center 1199 00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:06,589 which limits the reach once we do the 1200 00:49:12,190 --> 00:49:08,690 work that we plan for this EBA will have 1201 00:49:14,469 --> 00:49:12,200 a PDGF on the on the end of the OBS s so 1202 00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:14,479 you get the maximum benefit of having 1203 00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:19,970 the OBS s available to you and let's see 1204 00:49:24,130 --> 00:49:22,249 in addition we're going to basically 1205 00:49:25,749 --> 00:49:24,140 some cleanup items at the end of the CVA 1206 00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:25,759 we're going to be taking some some 1207 00:49:31,359 --> 00:49:28,130 photos of the work that we did on the 1208 00:49:33,430 --> 00:49:31,369 FGB PDGF and also some photos of the FGB 1209 00:49:37,660 --> 00:49:33,440 thrusters that have been requested by 1210 00:49:39,789 --> 00:49:37,670 our Russian colleagues and that that 1211 00:49:46,569 --> 00:49:39,799 will close out the EBA activities for 1212 00:49:49,059 --> 00:49:46,579 the flight okay flight day 12 we resumed 1213 00:49:51,450 --> 00:49:49,069 transfer activities we do a standard 1214 00:49:53,829 --> 00:49:51,460 rendezvous rendezvous tools check out 1215 00:49:55,269 --> 00:49:53,839 for the on the orbiter side we do a 1216 00:49:56,469 --> 00:49:55,279 joint news conference with the crew and 1217 00:49:59,259 --> 00:49:56,479 then we have the farewell and hatch 1218 00:50:03,249 --> 00:49:59,269 closure and a couple of comments before 1219 00:50:04,809 --> 00:50:03,259 I hand back to Gary in parallel to all 1220 00:50:07,539 --> 00:50:04,819 the activities that I described here I 1221 00:50:09,339 --> 00:50:07,549 hit mostly on the EVs and the robotics 1222 00:50:11,499 --> 00:50:09,349 but in parallel to these activities were 1223 00:50:12,940 --> 00:50:11,509 going to be doing transfer transferring 1224 00:50:15,279 --> 00:50:12,950 the items from the shuttle mid deck that 1225 00:50:17,019 --> 00:50:15,289 we brought up to the station the other 1226 00:50:20,859 --> 00:50:17,029 thing that we're working real hard on on 1227 00:50:23,650 --> 00:50:20,869 this mission is to get ahead on tasks 1228 00:50:27,819 --> 00:50:23,660 required to support the the next stage 1229 00:50:29,979 --> 00:50:27,829 and sts-135 as an example we've got an 1230 00:50:32,559 --> 00:50:29,989 ATV attached that has not yet been 1231 00:50:34,479 --> 00:50:32,569 completely unloaded so we're going to do 1232 00:50:36,999 --> 00:50:34,489 our best to get as much of that 1233 00:50:38,950 --> 00:50:37,009 unpacking done as practical we've also 1234 00:50:41,769 --> 00:50:38,960 got some work that's required on the 1235 00:50:43,509 --> 00:50:41,779 carbon dioxide removal assembly or sidra 1236 00:50:47,620 --> 00:50:43,519 so we're going to we're going to we're 1237 00:50:49,660 --> 00:50:47,630 doing everything we can to make the 134 1238 00:50:50,769 --> 00:50:49,670 crewmembers available to do that work so 1239 00:50:52,839 --> 00:50:50,779 there's going to be a lot of stuff going 1240 00:50:54,999 --> 00:50:52,849 on in parallel to the EBA in the 1241 00:50:57,519 --> 00:50:55,009 robotics that I described and that work 1242 00:50:59,440 --> 00:50:57,529 is absolutely critical to making the 1243 00:51:03,219 --> 00:50:59,450 next stage prior to the Saudis departure 1244 00:51:05,739 --> 00:51:03,229 and the time leading up to 135 work the 1245 00:51:06,999 --> 00:51:05,749 other thing I'll mention is that many of 1246 00:51:09,069 --> 00:51:07,009 you may have heard that there was 1247 00:51:11,020 --> 00:51:09,079 consideration and assessment being done 1248 00:51:15,580 --> 00:51:11,030 for a what we're calling a so you 1249 00:51:17,500 --> 00:51:15,590 fly about that was done on 133 a lot of 1250 00:51:19,270 --> 00:51:17,510 the analysis was done of the station 1251 00:51:20,860 --> 00:51:19,280 attitude Ricard and the trajectory we 1252 00:51:23,230 --> 00:51:20,870 put together a basic timeline and what 1253 00:51:24,910 --> 00:51:23,240 that would look look like in the end 1254 00:51:27,670 --> 00:51:24,920 they decided they weren't quite ready to 1255 00:51:31,720 --> 00:51:27,680 do that on 133 we have been asked to 1256 00:51:34,090 --> 00:51:31,730 look at that same thing for sts-134 is 1257 00:51:35,590 --> 00:51:34,100 my expectation is the station attitude 1258 00:51:39,130 --> 00:51:35,600 to be very similar that the Soyuz 1259 00:51:41,290 --> 00:51:39,140 trajectory would be very similar that 1260 00:51:42,820 --> 00:51:41,300 the objectives will be the same we'll 1261 00:51:44,290 --> 00:51:42,830 probably have a video camera inside the 1262 00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:44,300 Soyuz will probably and will have 1263 00:51:49,720 --> 00:51:47,330 multiple cameras and the intent there is 1264 00:51:52,270 --> 00:51:49,730 the photo document that the external of 1265 00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:52,280 the station and you know with the 1266 00:51:55,060 --> 00:51:53,810 shuttle flights wind and down this being 1267 00:51:58,120 --> 00:51:55,070 the second to last one this just 1268 00:52:00,490 --> 00:51:58,130 represents a unique opportunity to get 1269 00:52:02,170 --> 00:52:00,500 photo documentation of the entire 1270 00:52:04,780 --> 00:52:02,180 configuration with with the shuttle an 1271 00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:04,790 attached so that's something you'll 1272 00:52:11,950 --> 00:52:07,850 you'll hear more about as we finalize 1273 00:52:13,540 --> 00:52:11,960 the plans and look at the details at a 1274 00:52:15,970 --> 00:52:13,550 high level what we would plan to do is 1275 00:52:17,980 --> 00:52:15,980 use that plus one day that Gary 1276 00:52:19,930 --> 00:52:17,990 discussed you mentioned that we had a 14 1277 00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:19,940 plus one day mission we'd insert that 1278 00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:21,770 plus one day in order to provide some 1279 00:52:25,780 --> 00:52:24,050 margin to support this activity and I 1280 00:52:28,540 --> 00:52:25,790 would expect the Saudis fly about to be 1281 00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:28,550 done later in the mission rather than 1282 00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:30,290 earlier you know it's something on the 1283 00:52:34,090 --> 00:52:32,090 order of flight day 12 13 we haven't 1284 00:52:35,530 --> 00:52:34,100 finalized what that day would be but 1285 00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:35,540 that's kind of what we're working 1286 00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:38,210 towards we've asked our Russian 1287 00:52:42,730 --> 00:52:39,890 colleagues to look at this as well and 1288 00:52:44,950 --> 00:52:42,740 of course we need their approval and 1289 00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:44,960 their their final agreement to go do 1290 00:52:48,370 --> 00:52:47,090 this before we would put finish the 1291 00:52:50,650 --> 00:52:48,380 details of the planning but I just 1292 00:52:53,530 --> 00:52:50,660 wanted to give folks a heads up to 1293 00:52:55,540 --> 00:52:53,540 that's something we're looking at and 1294 00:52:57,160 --> 00:52:55,550 with that I'll hand back to Gary to take 1295 00:53:00,520 --> 00:52:57,170 you through flight 812 when the rest of 1296 00:53:03,220 --> 00:53:00,530 the mission okay thanks Derek so we're 1297 00:53:04,420 --> 00:53:03,230 still on a hatch closure day go ahead we 1298 00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:04,430 already talked about the two big 1299 00:53:07,990 --> 00:53:06,170 payloads that we've we've transferred 1300 00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:08,000 from the payload Bay over to the space 1301 00:53:13,870 --> 00:53:10,850 station there each just over 15,000 1302 00:53:15,430 --> 00:53:13,880 pounds each so greater than 30,000 1303 00:53:17,650 --> 00:53:15,440 pounds of cargo that would transfer it 1304 00:53:19,690 --> 00:53:17,660 externally the shuttle mid decks got 1305 00:53:21,820 --> 00:53:19,700 well over 8,000 pounds of internal cargo 1306 00:53:23,980 --> 00:53:21,830 that were transferring over to the space 1307 00:53:24,849 --> 00:53:23,990 station during the mission and this of 1308 00:53:26,229 --> 00:53:24,859 course is our last 1309 00:53:28,630 --> 00:53:26,239 make sure we get the right cargo on the 1310 00:53:30,069 --> 00:53:28,640 right side of the hatch we're also 1311 00:53:32,529 --> 00:53:30,079 bringing back quite a bit of cargo from 1312 00:53:34,479 --> 00:53:32,539 station back down to the ground as well 1313 00:53:36,039 --> 00:53:34,489 so we'll be making sure we get all that 1314 00:53:38,799 --> 00:53:36,049 accomplished there before we close 1315 00:53:42,370 --> 00:53:38,809 hatches at the end of the day and we'll 1316 00:53:44,829 --> 00:53:42,380 also get the the runnable tools and and 1317 00:53:46,390 --> 00:53:44,839 those type activities checked out in 1318 00:53:49,210 --> 00:53:46,400 preparation for the undock in the next 1319 00:53:52,539 --> 00:53:49,220 morning so that takes us to flight day 1320 00:53:54,809 --> 00:53:52,549 13 which is undocking day and fly around 1321 00:53:57,940 --> 00:53:54,819 as well as the storm we rendezvous day 1322 00:54:01,239 --> 00:53:57,950 so we have a we have a video to depict 1323 00:54:03,339 --> 00:54:01,249 some of those operations orbital will 1324 00:54:05,019 --> 00:54:03,349 back away undock and back away and do a 1325 00:54:08,589 --> 00:54:05,029 full one lap fly around like we normally 1326 00:54:12,249 --> 00:54:08,599 do and it will do the nominal step one 1327 00:54:13,930 --> 00:54:12,259 burn right there and then the SEP to 1328 00:54:15,460 --> 00:54:13,940 burn will put us on the storm we 1329 00:54:17,859 --> 00:54:15,470 rendezvous trajectory so we're going to 1330 00:54:21,819 --> 00:54:17,869 phase out above station and behind it 1331 00:54:23,229 --> 00:54:21,829 and storm will be taking data all the 1332 00:54:27,069 --> 00:54:23,239 way out to the sensors drop block 1333 00:54:30,460 --> 00:54:27,079 outside 20,000 feet and then we'll go 1334 00:54:31,660 --> 00:54:30,470 ahead and do a orbit lowering burn out 1335 00:54:34,329 --> 00:54:31,670 here which is going to bring us down 1336 00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:34,339 below the space station and get a set up 1337 00:54:40,450 --> 00:54:36,410 for the trajectory to mimic the Orion 1338 00:54:42,279 --> 00:54:40,460 approach to the space station and this 1339 00:54:43,930 --> 00:54:42,289 this approach is called a co Olympic 1340 00:54:45,849 --> 00:54:43,940 approach so this burned down here is 1341 00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:45,859 going to put us in a CO Olympic 1342 00:54:50,349 --> 00:54:47,890 trajectory under the space station and 1343 00:54:53,890 --> 00:54:50,359 then we'll be catching back up to it and 1344 00:54:55,420 --> 00:54:53,900 do the terminal phase initiation burn 1345 00:54:57,220 --> 00:54:55,430 which will bring us back up towards 1346 00:54:59,140 --> 00:54:57,230 station and it's designed to have a 1347 00:55:01,509 --> 00:54:59,150 stall out at about a thousand feet below 1348 00:55:04,420 --> 00:55:01,519 and 300 feet behind the space station 1349 00:55:06,910 --> 00:55:04,430 and then orbital mechanics will pull us 1350 00:55:08,620 --> 00:55:06,920 down in a way storm sensors will 1351 00:55:11,349 --> 00:55:08,630 continue to take data until the sensors 1352 00:55:14,259 --> 00:55:11,359 drop block and when we get outside that 1353 00:55:16,089 --> 00:55:14,269 range will we'll go ahead and call the 1354 00:55:17,950 --> 00:55:16,099 doc mission complete and then we'll 1355 00:55:21,370 --> 00:55:17,960 start would get our normal water dumps 1356 00:55:25,450 --> 00:55:21,380 accomplished and get ready to to get the 1357 00:55:27,509 --> 00:55:25,460 ship prepared to come back home so that 1358 00:55:29,890 --> 00:55:27,519 takes the flight day 14 which is the 1359 00:55:31,690 --> 00:55:29,900 nominal landing minus one day activities 1360 00:55:33,880 --> 00:55:31,700 entry team will come in they'll do the 1361 00:55:35,109 --> 00:55:33,890 flight control system check out make 1362 00:55:37,750 --> 00:55:35,119 sure all those systems are ready to 1363 00:55:40,180 --> 00:55:37,760 support the entry the following day 1364 00:55:41,350 --> 00:55:40,190 to the ration control system jet firings 1365 00:55:43,180 --> 00:55:41,360 make sure all the Jets are ready to 1366 00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:43,190 support the entry and then of course 1367 00:55:47,290 --> 00:55:45,410 we'll be doing all the internal cabin 1368 00:55:50,370 --> 00:55:47,300 Stowe and and reconfiguring to get ready 1369 00:55:53,170 --> 00:55:50,380 to to do an entry with the spacecraft 1370 00:55:55,420 --> 00:55:53,180 and then on flight day 15 we'll wrap up 1371 00:55:57,250 --> 00:55:55,430 the mission with a deorbit prep and 1372 00:56:00,670 --> 00:55:57,260 final landing of endeavor hopefully at 1373 00:56:03,370 --> 00:56:00,680 Kennedy Space Center and with that we'll 1374 00:56:06,550 --> 00:56:03,380 be wrapping up a very challenging and 1375 00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:06,560 very very successful mission hopefully 1376 00:56:10,750 --> 00:56:08,450 and like like we talked about we got 1377 00:56:12,550 --> 00:56:10,760 quite a few first on this flight really 1378 00:56:14,530 --> 00:56:12,560 excited to be part of this and have the 1379 00:56:17,740 --> 00:56:14,540 opportunity to take a ms to its final 1380 00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:17,750 location do storm activities for the 1381 00:56:22,510 --> 00:56:20,210 Orion program and just out a new 1382 00:56:25,030 --> 00:56:22,520 pre-breathe protocol that abused for the 1383 00:56:26,350 --> 00:56:25,040 rest of the life on Space Station so we 1384 00:56:28,990 --> 00:56:26,360 got a lot going on and really looking 1385 00:56:30,730 --> 00:56:29,000 forward to it and I think that's all we 1386 00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:30,740 got Kelly will be really take any 1387 00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:33,170 questions folks might have thanks Kari 1388 00:56:37,810 --> 00:56:35,690 and thanks Derek will move ahead to the 1389 00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:37,820 questions please do remember to repeat 1390 00:56:41,560 --> 00:56:39,770 your name and your affiliation before 1391 00:56:44,260 --> 00:56:41,570 your question and we're out in the back 1392 00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:44,270 row with mark I think some are kuro for 1393 00:56:49,030 --> 00:56:46,370 a vacation week I have a couple of storm 1394 00:56:51,670 --> 00:56:49,040 questions and the first one is when you 1395 00:56:55,930 --> 00:56:51,680 undock and then we rendezvous how long 1396 00:56:58,330 --> 00:56:55,940 will that exercise last okay I 1397 00:57:00,520 --> 00:56:58,340 understand the question is a approximate 1398 00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:00,530 time the duration will take from undock 1399 00:57:05,980 --> 00:57:03,530 to the cult the closest approach back to 1400 00:57:07,240 --> 00:57:05,990 space station I know the exact time off 1401 00:57:11,290 --> 00:57:07,250 top my head but it's on the order of 1402 00:57:12,520 --> 00:57:11,300 about three hours and 40 minutes and if 1403 00:57:15,610 --> 00:57:12,530 you need the exact number i can get i 1404 00:57:18,640 --> 00:57:15,620 can get that whole profile for you this 1405 00:57:21,100 --> 00:57:18,650 is a follow-up question now maybe this 1406 00:57:23,500 --> 00:57:21,110 is a little philosophical but this seems 1407 00:57:27,820 --> 00:57:23,510 like sort of a significant test for the 1408 00:57:30,730 --> 00:57:27,830 shuttle to do it's it's always had a 1409 00:57:33,010 --> 00:57:30,740 manual docking regime with the space 1410 00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:33,020 station and if i understand what storm 1411 00:57:40,230 --> 00:57:36,890 does is it gives you in the in the 1412 00:57:42,430 --> 00:57:40,240 future an automated sort of docking 1413 00:57:45,670 --> 00:57:42,440 approach which gives you more 1414 00:57:48,580 --> 00:57:45,680 flexibility on crew complement and and i 1415 00:57:50,860 --> 00:57:48,590 think this thing would even work with 1416 00:57:52,900 --> 00:57:50,870 lunar landing or asteroid run but I'm 1417 00:57:55,060 --> 00:57:52,910 not quite sure on all the capabilities 1418 00:57:58,660 --> 00:57:55,070 but it really seems to open some doors 1419 00:58:00,190 --> 00:57:58,670 and I just wonder what you're thinking 1420 00:58:03,610 --> 00:58:00,200 what your thoughts are on the 1421 00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:03,620 significance of of handing this off from 1422 00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:06,410 the shuttle to the future space grant 1423 00:58:13,210 --> 00:58:10,370 Thanks yeah mark i think i think it's a 1424 00:58:15,720 --> 00:58:13,220 it's a outstanding way to take advantage 1425 00:58:18,430 --> 00:58:15,730 of the space flight capabilities we have 1426 00:58:20,410 --> 00:58:18,440 today that both the shuttle in the space 1427 00:58:22,390 --> 00:58:20,420 station to like i said demonstrate new 1428 00:58:24,220 --> 00:58:22,400 technologies that will be used for all 1429 00:58:26,590 --> 00:58:24,230 future spacecraft and this this 1430 00:58:30,610 --> 00:58:26,600 capability will it is being designed for 1431 00:58:32,560 --> 00:58:30,620 Orion but it is absolutely very 1432 00:58:33,820 --> 00:58:32,570 applicable to any any spacecraft that 1433 00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:33,830 will be doing doc and like you said in 1434 00:58:40,140 --> 00:58:38,090 lunar orbit or Mars orbit anywhere so to 1435 00:58:42,910 --> 00:58:40,150 me it's it's a very significant 1436 00:58:45,070 --> 00:58:42,920 progression of advancing technologies 1437 00:58:46,900 --> 00:58:45,080 for future applications so I'm very 1438 00:58:53,350 --> 00:58:46,910 excited to be able to do this on this 1439 00:58:57,670 --> 00:58:53,360 flight Phillips loss with NASA Space 1440 00:58:59,560 --> 00:58:57,680 Flight calm also on storm how how is 1441 00:59:01,930 --> 00:58:59,570 that going to the choreography going to 1442 00:59:03,700 --> 00:59:01,940 work on the rear on da vu is are you 1443 00:59:05,830 --> 00:59:03,710 going to be doing burn targeting in the 1444 00:59:07,750 --> 00:59:05,840 on the ground are you going to be using 1445 00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:07,760 the storm sensors to targeting or are 1446 00:59:12,160 --> 00:59:09,650 you going to be using orbiter the normal 1447 00:59:15,310 --> 00:59:12,170 orbit or assets to do that it's a great 1448 00:59:18,100 --> 00:59:15,320 question the storm system is not is not 1449 00:59:19,570 --> 00:59:18,110 integrated into the vehicle into the 1450 00:59:21,750 --> 00:59:19,580 shuttle vehicles so none of that 1451 00:59:24,190 --> 00:59:21,760 information can get into the targeting 1452 00:59:25,930 --> 00:59:24,200 capabilities of the shuttle so they're 1453 00:59:28,150 --> 00:59:25,940 going to be basically operating 1454 00:59:30,010 --> 00:59:28,160 separately from the orbiter they'll be 1455 00:59:31,750 --> 00:59:30,020 collecting data and and they'll be able 1456 00:59:34,240 --> 00:59:31,760 to analyze that after we get it back 1457 00:59:35,650 --> 00:59:34,250 from the mission the orbiter will 1458 00:59:37,720 --> 00:59:35,660 utilize its standard suite of 1459 00:59:41,980 --> 00:59:37,730 capabilities so the run of the radar 1460 00:59:43,420 --> 00:59:41,990 system will be our main main sensor on 1461 00:59:46,180 --> 00:59:43,430 the orbiter that feeds into the 1462 00:59:48,970 --> 00:59:46,190 navigation system and will be used to 1463 00:59:50,050 --> 00:59:48,980 target the first couple burns I'm sorry 1464 00:59:52,240 --> 00:59:50,060 the first couple burns are going to be 1465 00:59:55,900 --> 00:59:52,250 ground targeted and then once we get 1466 00:59:57,790 --> 00:59:55,910 past the the NH burn we'll start 1467 00:59:59,860 --> 00:59:57,800 targeting the rest of the rendezvous 1468 01:00:01,240 --> 00:59:59,870 maneuvers on board with the with the 1469 01:00:03,340 --> 01:00:01,250 sensors 1470 01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:03,350 from the ka radar and if we need it 1471 01:00:07,990 --> 01:00:05,530 we've got the star trackers as well and 1472 01:00:10,510 --> 01:00:08,000 but we'll be targeting those the 1473 01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:10,520 remainder of the storm burns with our 1474 01:00:16,810 --> 01:00:12,410 standard suite of capabilities on the 1475 01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:16,820 shuttle well the horowitz CVS or three 1476 01:00:21,700 --> 01:00:19,250 quick ones uh one is on storm again what 1477 01:00:23,530 --> 01:00:21,710 is the max range behind ISS before you 1478 01:00:25,540 --> 01:00:23,540 start coming back you said that I just 1479 01:00:27,010 --> 01:00:25,550 missed it yeah bill actually I don't 1480 01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:27,020 think I said the max range but that's a 1481 01:00:30,730 --> 01:00:28,490 great question we're going to again the 1482 01:00:32,560 --> 01:00:30,740 sensors are right around 20,000 feet so 1483 01:00:34,350 --> 01:00:32,570 we need to get outside of that to give 1484 01:00:36,280 --> 01:00:34,360 them an ability to get set up to 1485 01:00:38,380 --> 01:00:36,290 characterize their acquisition 1486 01:00:39,550 --> 01:00:38,390 performance so we're going to the 1487 01:00:42,400 --> 01:00:39,560 trajectory is going to take us right 1488 01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:42,410 around 30,000 feet about 29,000 feet 1489 01:00:46,450 --> 01:00:44,690 behind the space station before we start 1490 01:00:49,810 --> 01:00:46,460 phasing back in underneath and catching 1491 01:00:53,110 --> 01:00:49,820 up to more for me I guess for Derek on 1492 01:00:54,640 --> 01:00:53,120 the Soyuz fly around this has to be Cady 1493 01:00:56,380 --> 01:00:54,650 Coleman screw obviously so they would 1494 01:00:58,390 --> 01:00:56,390 come off of Ross fet I'm assuming and 1495 01:01:00,690 --> 01:00:58,400 they were telling us last time we were 1496 01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:00,700 discussing this when it was a poisk 1497 01:01:04,030 --> 01:01:02,930 departure that you'd want to come off 1498 01:01:05,590 --> 01:01:04,040 the bottom because there was some issue 1499 01:01:07,180 --> 01:01:05,600 with pluming the tail of the orbiter 1500 01:01:09,160 --> 01:01:07,190 while it was dr. it was inside that 1501 01:01:11,350 --> 01:01:09,170 envelope so has that been resolved I 1502 01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:11,360 assume it has is that switcher we're 1503 01:01:15,670 --> 01:01:13,610 actually targeting the ron garan screw 1504 01:01:18,340 --> 01:01:15,680 for this for this fly about so they be 1505 01:01:19,750 --> 01:01:18,350 they be leaving the zenith Mr import 1506 01:01:21,070 --> 01:01:19,760 well then let me ask about that because 1507 01:01:22,480 --> 01:01:21,080 I thought you had always used to 1508 01:01:23,950 --> 01:01:22,490 departing crew in case something 1509 01:01:26,290 --> 01:01:23,960 happened and they couldn't redock you'd 1510 01:01:28,330 --> 01:01:26,300 have the outgoing crew that would then 1511 01:01:31,510 --> 01:01:28,340 return to Earth in that case why would 1512 01:01:33,490 --> 01:01:31,520 you do it this way well it's all driven 1513 01:01:35,140 --> 01:01:33,500 by what you described it the clearances 1514 01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:35,150 and the trajectory from the zenith 1515 01:01:40,510 --> 01:01:38,210 versus the native ports so ideally you'd 1516 01:01:41,860 --> 01:01:40,520 use the departing crew for what we're 1517 01:01:44,290 --> 01:01:41,870 planning for this mission just because 1518 01:01:47,920 --> 01:01:44,300 the configuration the sois is we would 1519 01:01:51,700 --> 01:01:47,930 use Ron Garan scrub the last question is 1520 01:01:54,250 --> 01:01:51,710 on aisle can you give us a I don't know 1521 01:01:55,840 --> 01:01:54,260 scuba diving depressed bins 101 and 1522 01:01:57,700 --> 01:01:55,850 explain how this works I just I 1523 01:01:59,080 --> 01:01:57,710 understand the campout and how that 1524 01:02:01,480 --> 01:01:59,090 achieves your goal I don't know that I 1525 01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:01,490 understand how I all does it yeah the 1526 01:02:05,380 --> 01:02:03,410 intent of the protocol is exactly that 1527 01:02:07,120 --> 01:02:05,390 are both the campout and the out 1528 01:02:09,220 --> 01:02:07,130 protocol exactly the same as that's the 1529 01:02:11,740 --> 01:02:09,230 Clin clenched the blood and tissues of 1530 01:02:17,300 --> 01:02:15,200 for overnight campout that with the 1531 01:02:19,220 --> 01:02:17,310 crews sleeping in the airlock the the 1532 01:02:21,170 --> 01:02:19,230 reduced pressure helps with that helps 1533 01:02:22,910 --> 01:02:21,180 the you know the efficiency of removing 1534 01:02:24,770 --> 01:02:22,920 nitrogen from the blood and then that 1535 01:02:26,540 --> 01:02:24,780 duration of the campout also helps and 1536 01:02:28,579 --> 01:02:26,550 that the goal is to minimize the time 1537 01:02:31,609 --> 01:02:28,589 that you have to breathe pure oxygen the 1538 01:02:35,450 --> 01:02:31,619 next morning for aisle what we found is 1539 01:02:37,490 --> 01:02:35,460 that just by putting the the the crew in 1540 01:02:39,380 --> 01:02:37,500 the spacesuit after reduced pressure and 1541 01:02:40,819 --> 01:02:39,390 then having to do some minimal amount of 1542 01:02:44,180 --> 01:02:40,829 exercise I should have mentioned that 1543 01:02:46,370 --> 01:02:44,190 light exercise means barely moving in 1544 01:02:48,020 --> 01:02:46,380 this case it's not a leisurely jog or 1545 01:02:50,540 --> 01:02:48,030 anything of that sort it's just 1546 01:02:52,460 --> 01:02:50,550 basically flexing your knees and i think 1547 01:02:55,310 --> 01:02:52,470 alison has a video to show you just how 1548 01:02:57,800 --> 01:02:55,320 light the light exercise is so it's I 1549 01:02:59,270 --> 01:02:57,810 mean the goal of both protocols is to 1550 01:03:01,190 --> 01:02:59,280 get the nitrogen out of the bloodstream 1551 01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:01,200 they just in the accomplish in basically 1552 01:03:06,710 --> 01:03:05,010 the same way by breathing an oxygen-rich 1553 01:03:09,290 --> 01:03:06,720 environment at a low pressure lower 1554 01:03:11,240 --> 01:03:09,300 pressure than ambient but you're able to 1555 01:03:21,470 --> 01:03:11,250 accomplish it quicker using the out 1556 01:03:23,569 --> 01:03:21,480 protocol that makes sense yeah Robert 1557 01:03:25,099 --> 01:03:23,579 since he's closer hi Robert problem with 1558 01:03:27,950 --> 01:03:25,109 collects based calm just with a quick 1559 01:03:29,859 --> 01:03:27,960 question about OBS s the last time you 1560 01:03:32,990 --> 01:03:29,869 stood it on station and left it there it 1561 01:03:35,150 --> 01:03:33,000 the sensors needed to be powered because 1562 01:03:37,099 --> 01:03:35,160 you're going to reuse those sensors is 1563 01:03:39,170 --> 01:03:37,109 am I correct that they're not going to 1564 01:03:41,540 --> 01:03:39,180 be powered this time and they'll just be 1565 01:03:44,120 --> 01:03:41,550 allowed to freeze and die that is 1566 01:03:46,940 --> 01:03:44,130 correct there's there's no provisions on 1567 01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:46,950 the s-1 trust to power the the sensors 1568 01:03:52,930 --> 01:03:50,010 system on OBS s so you know in a matter 1569 01:03:56,599 --> 01:03:52,940 of hours after we install it on on 1570 01:03:57,980 --> 01:03:56,609 station ani ba for the central package 1571 01:04:01,880 --> 01:03:57,990 will have violated thermal limits and 1572 01:04:03,530 --> 01:04:01,890 and it will be assumed to be lost and of 1573 01:04:05,569 --> 01:04:03,540 course there's there's no need for the 1574 01:04:09,050 --> 01:04:05,579 sensor system on station I mean that's 1575 01:04:10,790 --> 01:04:09,060 dedicated to inspection of the TPS but 1576 01:04:13,790 --> 01:04:10,800 but that is a fact last time we left it 1577 01:04:16,790 --> 01:04:13,800 was powered this time it will not be I'm 1578 01:04:18,740 --> 01:04:16,800 Irene Klotz with Reuters um on the aisle 1579 01:04:23,559 --> 01:04:18,750 is that it was that protocol developed 1580 01:04:26,019 --> 01:04:23,569 to try and not ease a space station 1581 01:04:27,370 --> 01:04:26,029 based EV a since there won't be any more 1582 01:04:29,349 --> 01:04:27,380 shuttle ones in other words you're 1583 01:04:31,900 --> 01:04:29,359 trying to make things a little easier 1584 01:04:33,939 --> 01:04:31,910 for the live aboard crew and also will 1585 01:04:36,459 --> 01:04:33,949 they be able to do a spacewalk like in 1586 01:04:38,410 --> 01:04:36,469 case of an emergency quicker that sort 1587 01:04:42,819 --> 01:04:38,420 of part of the thinking that went into 1588 01:04:44,469 --> 01:04:42,829 it that's a good question I mean it's 1589 01:04:46,449 --> 01:04:44,479 it's certainly it's a quality of life 1590 01:04:47,979 --> 01:04:46,459 issue for future cruise in that you 1591 01:04:49,479 --> 01:04:47,989 don't have to take two of the six crew 1592 01:04:52,509 --> 01:04:49,489 members and isolate them in the airlock 1593 01:04:54,579 --> 01:04:52,519 overnight which you know we go to great 1594 01:04:56,140 --> 01:04:54,589 pains not to separate and isolate the 1595 01:04:57,640 --> 01:04:56,150 crews from one another for obvious 1596 01:05:00,699 --> 01:04:57,650 reasons if there happens to be emergency 1597 01:05:03,249 --> 01:05:00,709 so not having in them and over in the 1598 01:05:06,880 --> 01:05:03,259 airlock overnight is a is a significant 1599 01:05:08,559 --> 01:05:06,890 benefit you know it makes the morning or 1600 01:05:10,599 --> 01:05:08,569 the evening before the EV a much more 1601 01:05:13,900 --> 01:05:10,609 normal it makes the morning of the EBA 1602 01:05:16,029 --> 01:05:13,910 look just like any other morning so so 1603 01:05:18,459 --> 01:05:16,039 those are significant benefits the other 1604 01:05:21,189 --> 01:05:18,469 thing that aisle helps with is that it 1605 01:05:23,109 --> 01:05:21,199 uses less oxygen than the campout 1606 01:05:25,749 --> 01:05:23,119 protocol so you know down the road 1607 01:05:28,660 --> 01:05:25,759 looking at station post shuttle that's 1608 01:05:30,549 --> 01:05:28,670 clearly a benefit you asked about your 1609 01:05:32,049 --> 01:05:30,559 ability to quickly do EBA is the 1610 01:05:34,359 --> 01:05:32,059 interesting thing about that question is 1611 01:05:35,979 --> 01:05:34,369 that typically it's the planning 1612 01:05:39,099 --> 01:05:35,989 required to get the crew ready that 1613 01:05:41,739 --> 01:05:39,109 takes the time like if you look back at 1614 01:05:44,439 --> 01:05:41,749 the pump module or remove and replace 1615 01:05:47,439 --> 01:05:44,449 that we did in the last six months or so 1616 01:05:48,819 --> 01:05:47,449 you know the time between the pump 1617 01:05:50,880 --> 01:05:48,829 module failing and the crew going out 1618 01:05:53,739 --> 01:05:50,890 the door was really all driven by 1619 01:05:55,749 --> 01:05:53,749 procedure development and analysis and 1620 01:05:57,549 --> 01:05:55,759 all the work that's required to 1621 01:06:02,019 --> 01:05:57,559 understand the timeline and build the 1622 01:06:04,930 --> 01:06:02,029 sequence so you know I guess if you in 1623 01:06:06,579 --> 01:06:04,940 the in the in the event that you decided 1624 01:06:09,069 --> 01:06:06,589 to do in the EBA in the morning of you 1625 01:06:10,599 --> 01:06:09,079 could go do aisle and be able to do it 1626 01:06:11,920 --> 01:06:10,609 more quickly than camp out but that in 1627 01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:11,930 written in reality that would never 1628 01:06:20,319 --> 01:06:18,410 happen on the on the storm hardware 1629 01:06:22,089 --> 01:06:20,329 could you just maybe explain a little 1630 01:06:24,279 --> 01:06:22,099 bit about the similarities and 1631 01:06:26,410 --> 01:06:24,289 differences between other things like 1632 01:06:28,920 --> 01:06:26,420 the dragon I that's been tested and then 1633 01:06:32,640 --> 01:06:28,930 also just to clarify or I n is not 1634 01:06:34,980 --> 01:06:32,650 currently planned on docking at state 1635 01:06:37,289 --> 01:06:34,990 and this is just a way to use sort of 1636 01:06:39,029 --> 01:06:37,299 station as a test bed and shuttle as 1637 01:06:41,609 --> 01:06:39,039 test bed since that's what's available 1638 01:06:44,220 --> 01:06:41,619 to do these kind of in flight tests is 1639 01:06:46,680 --> 01:06:44,230 that right yeah let's see the first part 1640 01:06:48,450 --> 01:06:46,690 of your question is is to try and 1641 01:06:50,250 --> 01:06:48,460 compare with some of the other dragon 1642 01:06:52,319 --> 01:06:50,260 eye and maybe tried are some of the 1643 01:06:54,059 --> 01:06:52,329 other systems fortune I don't have the 1644 01:06:58,079 --> 01:06:54,069 details of those systems so I can't give 1645 01:07:00,269 --> 01:06:58,089 you a good comparison as far as using 1646 01:07:04,319 --> 01:07:00,279 space station as a testbed absolutely 1647 01:07:05,700 --> 01:07:04,329 it's a it's a fantastic way to like I 1648 01:07:07,859 --> 01:07:05,710 said good and verify this capability 1649 01:07:10,349 --> 01:07:07,869 works and it is applicable to to 1650 01:07:12,779 --> 01:07:10,359 whatever we decide to do here in the new 1651 01:07:15,059 --> 01:07:12,789 years down the road so it just happens 1652 01:07:17,490 --> 01:07:15,069 to be you know designed and built for 1653 01:07:20,539 --> 01:07:17,500 the Ryan program and that in that space 1654 01:07:23,849 --> 01:07:20,549 capsules kiss base capsule is actually 1655 01:07:25,799 --> 01:07:23,859 developed and and the hardware is 1656 01:07:26,819 --> 01:07:25,809 available and folks are you know 1657 01:07:29,430 --> 01:07:26,829 Lockheed still working on that 1658 01:07:34,620 --> 01:07:29,440 spacecraft so it could still end up at 1659 01:07:37,289 --> 01:07:34,630 Space Station okay Washington Marcia den 1660 01:07:40,200 --> 01:07:37,299 Associated Press two questions do you 1661 01:07:41,609 --> 01:07:40,210 expect a Soyuz fly about decision before 1662 01:07:44,599 --> 01:07:41,619 the mission begins or might have dragged 1663 01:07:47,760 --> 01:07:44,609 into the mission like it did last time 1664 01:07:49,589 --> 01:07:47,770 that's a hard question answer my hope is 1665 01:07:53,549 --> 01:07:49,599 that we'll have a decision before the 1666 01:07:54,930 --> 01:07:53,559 mission if you look at the 133 situation 1667 01:07:56,460 --> 01:07:54,940 they didn't start talking about it until 1668 01:07:59,190 --> 01:07:56,470 about two weeks before launch so they 1669 01:08:01,470 --> 01:07:59,200 were and they had a lot of work to do in 1670 01:08:03,120 --> 01:08:01,480 a very short period of time may we have 1671 01:08:05,130 --> 01:08:03,130 the benefit of the work that they did to 1672 01:08:07,260 --> 01:08:05,140 plant it and we have more time between 1673 01:08:09,510 --> 01:08:07,270 now and Lawrence so my expectation is 1674 01:08:13,769 --> 01:08:09,520 that will have a decision before the 1675 01:08:15,420 --> 01:08:13,779 launch endeavors last flight if you 1676 01:08:18,360 --> 01:08:15,430 could maybe just touch on that briefly 1677 01:08:23,880 --> 01:08:18,370 in any payloads going up to commemorate 1678 01:08:27,090 --> 01:08:23,890 that of course the last flight of each 1679 01:08:28,590 --> 01:08:27,100 of these vehicles is you know very 1680 01:08:30,269 --> 01:08:28,600 bittersweet for all of us that have 1681 01:08:33,720 --> 01:08:30,279 invested so much of our time and cruise 1682 01:08:36,599 --> 01:08:33,730 into these flights I've been so focused 1683 01:08:38,340 --> 01:08:36,609 on getting this this mission planned and 1684 01:08:39,780 --> 01:08:38,350 and all these details worked out all our 1685 01:08:41,550 --> 01:08:39,790 contingency planning together I haven't 1686 01:08:44,280 --> 01:08:41,560 spent too much time thinking about it I 1687 01:08:45,620 --> 01:08:44,290 know I have lots of time here starting 1688 01:08:50,090 --> 01:08:45,630 in the summer 22 1689 01:08:51,590 --> 01:08:50,100 look back and reflect but certainly it's 1690 01:08:54,260 --> 01:08:51,600 going to be a bittersweet moment to see 1691 01:08:55,189 --> 01:08:54,270 it back on the runway at KSC and I'm 1692 01:08:58,249 --> 01:08:55,199 sorry the second part of your question 1693 01:09:01,160 --> 01:08:58,259 was loads you're taking up items over 1694 01:09:03,439 --> 01:09:01,170 booyah yeah there are some there are 1695 01:09:05,809 --> 01:09:03,449 some special items going up and for 1696 01:09:07,519 --> 01:09:05,819 China that that lists with me but there 1697 01:09:10,280 --> 01:09:07,529 are things like patches etc that are 1698 01:09:13,629 --> 01:09:10,290 going up to to commemorate and the crews 1699 01:09:15,979 --> 01:09:13,639 going to get it give a a commemoration 1700 01:09:21,860 --> 01:09:15,989 statement later in the mission and will 1701 01:09:24,740 --> 01:09:21,870 provide to y'all okay Jim go back I'll 1702 01:09:26,419 --> 01:09:24,750 and explain a few things i'm still talk 1703 01:09:28,249 --> 01:09:26,429 about partially suited crewmen in a 1704 01:09:30,229 --> 01:09:28,259 lower in a lower pressure environment or 1705 01:09:33,709 --> 01:09:30,239 is it is he wearing just the upper up 1706 01:09:35,870 --> 01:09:33,719 proportionately and the sudanese he also 1707 01:09:37,910 --> 01:09:35,880 presumably think he couldn't get from 1708 01:09:40,990 --> 01:09:37,920 different pressure than ambient in a km 1709 01:09:43,729 --> 01:09:41,000 in Cabin the cc's breathing pure oxygen 1710 01:09:46,849 --> 01:09:43,739 the the way that the protocol lays out 1711 01:09:48,860 --> 01:09:46,859 he does he does a standard 60-minute 1712 01:09:51,370 --> 01:09:48,870 pre-breathe on pure oxygen just like he 1713 01:09:55,520 --> 01:09:51,380 would on on a normally be a day and then 1714 01:09:57,470 --> 01:09:55,530 we put him and his IV support crew the 2 1715 01:09:59,860 --> 01:09:57,480 eb a crew plus the ib support guys in 1716 01:10:03,200 --> 01:09:59,870 the airlock we depress it to 10 2 and 1717 01:10:05,959 --> 01:10:03,210 then he does his suit donning at 10 2 in 1718 01:10:07,340 --> 01:10:05,969 the airlock so once he's in a suit and 1719 01:10:10,600 --> 01:10:07,350 buttoned up and that the suit pressure 1720 01:10:13,910 --> 01:10:10,610 then we bring the airlock back tambiien 1721 01:10:16,520 --> 01:10:13,920 1470 okay so he's in he's in the suit at 1722 01:10:19,399 --> 01:10:16,530 1010 to and you bring the prayer the 1723 01:10:23,240 --> 01:10:19,409 ambient pressure up to 55 to 14-7 right 1724 01:10:25,100 --> 01:10:23,250 and that doesn't have any kind of he's 1725 01:10:26,419 --> 01:10:25,110 got external pressure on a suit and I've 1726 01:10:29,479 --> 01:10:26,429 ever seen that never seen anyone operate 1727 01:10:31,610 --> 01:10:29,489 with external pressure on the suit is 1728 01:10:35,930 --> 01:10:31,620 that it kind of a bit mobility issue or 1729 01:10:37,760 --> 01:10:35,940 nope oh that's fine okay and he's a met 1730 01:10:40,399 --> 01:10:37,770 and so he's at ten to he's still in the 1731 01:10:44,290 --> 01:10:40,409 proper o2 oxygen nitrogen ratio it's not 1732 01:10:47,060 --> 01:10:44,300 pure accident correct okay yummy word 1733 01:10:50,350 --> 01:10:47,070 okay thank you yeah and alice is going 1734 01:10:53,630 --> 01:10:50,360 to have more detail as well 1735 01:10:55,730 --> 01:10:53,640 hi clara moskowitz with space com a 1736 01:10:57,650 --> 01:10:55,740 couple questions the first one with the 1737 01:10:59,450 --> 01:10:57,660 potential soy is fly around that you're 1738 01:11:02,030 --> 01:10:59,460 considering if you could just help me 1739 01:11:03,830 --> 01:11:02,040 understand um if I'm correct the reason 1740 01:11:05,780 --> 01:11:03,840 it didn't happen last time was safety 1741 01:11:13,010 --> 01:11:05,790 considerations and and how would those 1742 01:11:14,690 --> 01:11:13,020 be different in this case yeah one of 1743 01:11:16,280 --> 01:11:14,700 the challenges we had last time was just 1744 01:11:20,030 --> 01:11:16,290 the time available to assess and 1745 01:11:21,860 --> 01:11:20,040 planning I mean that that was a that was 1746 01:11:23,150 --> 01:11:21,870 it's a significant operation that we 1747 01:11:25,610 --> 01:11:23,160 need to look at closely and make sure 1748 01:11:28,340 --> 01:11:25,620 that we understand and do it safely so 1749 01:11:29,870 --> 01:11:28,350 so one of the challenges is that we we 1750 01:11:32,450 --> 01:11:29,880 just didn't quite get there in time to 1751 01:11:34,970 --> 01:11:32,460 make it work for 133 the other the other 1752 01:11:36,980 --> 01:11:34,980 issue or concern identified by our 1753 01:11:38,540 --> 01:11:36,990 Russian colleagues that was at the Soyuz 1754 01:11:41,450 --> 01:11:38,550 that would have been used for the 133 1755 01:11:44,690 --> 01:11:41,460 fly about is a is a newer version of the 1756 01:11:46,790 --> 01:11:44,700 Soyuz with not as many miles on it not 1757 01:11:49,790 --> 01:11:46,800 as much flight experience for what we're 1758 01:11:51,770 --> 01:11:49,800 talking about a 134 we we have the older 1759 01:11:56,180 --> 01:11:51,780 version the Soyuz so those same issues 1760 01:11:58,040 --> 01:11:56,190 wouldn't apply so just to reiterate 1761 01:12:00,410 --> 01:11:58,050 there's nothing unsafe about the 1762 01:12:02,600 --> 01:12:00,420 trajectory the flying techniques are 1763 01:12:05,450 --> 01:12:02,610 well understood the crew be well trained 1764 01:12:06,650 --> 01:12:05,460 to go do it for 133 it was we didn't 1765 01:12:08,690 --> 01:12:06,660 quite have the time to finish the 1766 01:12:10,730 --> 01:12:08,700 analysis and there was some specific 1767 01:12:14,360 --> 01:12:10,740 concerns about that so use that we would 1768 01:12:16,820 --> 01:12:14,370 have flown with thanks um and also just 1769 01:12:18,410 --> 01:12:16,830 with testing out of the aisle a protocol 1770 01:12:20,030 --> 01:12:18,420 is there a reason why that's not 1771 01:12:22,070 --> 01:12:20,040 happening during the first two EVs 1772 01:12:23,630 --> 01:12:22,080 that's a good question there's not 1773 01:12:25,760 --> 01:12:23,640 really a lot of science behind it the 1774 01:12:27,530 --> 01:12:25,770 thought was since its new and we might 1775 01:12:29,510 --> 01:12:27,540 be surprised by things we wanted to get 1776 01:12:33,730 --> 01:12:29,520 a couple ebas behind us before we used 1777 01:12:36,050 --> 01:12:33,740 it it's really as simple as that okay 1778 01:12:38,630 --> 01:12:36,060 any more questions on this other room do 1779 01:12:45,410 --> 01:12:38,640 we have any follow-ups on the other side 1780 01:12:52,050 --> 01:12:47,910 it's a Philips loss with NASA space but 1781 01:12:55,320 --> 01:12:52,060 calm again on the port Sarge lube how 1782 01:12:57,290 --> 01:12:55,330 often do the race rings need to be do 1783 01:13:01,560 --> 01:12:57,300 they need this if i recall correctly 1784 01:13:03,000 --> 01:13:01,570 both of them were done on Ulf too so I 1785 01:13:05,040 --> 01:13:03,010 mean is something that needs to be done 1786 01:13:07,730 --> 01:13:05,050 periodically and if so when with the 1787 01:13:10,530 --> 01:13:07,740 starboard race ring need to be redone 1788 01:13:12,090 --> 01:13:10,540 yeah there there are numbers I don't 1789 01:13:13,560 --> 01:13:12,100 have the numbers available to me here in 1790 01:13:16,260 --> 01:13:13,570 front of me we can certainly get you 1791 01:13:18,360 --> 01:13:16,270 those I can't say that that the 1792 01:13:21,030 --> 01:13:18,370 lubrication we're doing on this this 1793 01:13:22,350 --> 01:13:21,040 flight is earlier than called for you 1794 01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:22,360 know based on the analysis so we're 1795 01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:24,010 taking this this opportunity to go do it 1796 01:13:31,590 --> 01:13:27,010 because it's a relatively complicated 1797 01:13:32,970 --> 01:13:31,600 task that it's a it's nice to well it's 1798 01:13:34,620 --> 01:13:32,980 a complicated test that it's nice to 1799 01:13:36,630 --> 01:13:34,630 have a shuttle crew focused on to go do 1800 01:13:39,180 --> 01:13:36,640 and we're using shuttle resources for 1801 01:13:42,680 --> 01:13:39,190 the EBA vice station resources so we're 1802 01:13:49,650 --> 01:13:46,280 well yeah just a quick one on the on the 1803 01:13:51,510 --> 01:13:49,660 ammonia refill that's not something that 1804 01:13:52,650 --> 01:13:51,520 can never be fixed i'm assuming 1805 01:13:54,060 --> 01:13:52,660 periodically then you're just going to 1806 01:13:56,460 --> 01:13:54,070 have to do this over and over again to 1807 01:13:58,980 --> 01:13:56,470 keep that thing top top yeah it's a very 1808 01:14:01,290 --> 01:13:58,990 very slow leak and there's really no 1809 01:14:02,700 --> 01:14:01,300 good way to identify the location just 1810 01:14:03,990 --> 01:14:02,710 because a lot of those plumbing lines 1811 01:14:07,830 --> 01:14:04,000 are buried in the truss segment you 1812 01:14:09,480 --> 01:14:07,840 can't really get at so if it continues 1813 01:14:11,670 --> 01:14:09,490 we would have to do this type of 1814 01:14:13,560 --> 01:14:11,680 resurfacing get in the future and the 1815 01:14:16,530 --> 01:14:13,570 ammonia is available via the ammonia 1816 01:14:18,060 --> 01:14:16,540 tank assembly we just have to do the the 1817 01:14:22,110 --> 01:14:18,070 same basically out of the plumbing to 1818 01:14:24,540 --> 01:14:22,120 get Damone you there okay check one last 1819 01:14:26,850 --> 01:14:24,550 time for questions here before we wrap 1820 01:14:28,710 --> 01:14:26,860 up the briefing it looks like no one 1821 01:14:30,030 --> 01:14:28,720 else has an additional question I want 1822 01:14:31,440 --> 01:14:30,040 to give you a little heads up on the 1823 01:14:34,260 --> 01:14:31,450 rest of our briefing schedule for the 1824 01:14:36,360 --> 01:14:34,270 day of course at twelve-thirty p.m. will 1825 01:14:37,860 --> 01:14:36,370 have Allison Bollinger here the lead 1826 01:14:39,330 --> 01:14:37,870 spacewalk officer to give you some more 1827 01:14:42,120 --> 01:14:39,340 details about that and the aisle 1828 01:14:43,830 --> 01:14:42,130 protocol at 130 will send the satellite 1829 01:14:45,990 --> 01:14:43,840 out to NASA headquarters for today's 1830 01:14:48,780 --> 01:14:46,000 video file and then a2 p.m. we'll be 1831 01:14:50,850 --> 01:14:48,790 back with the sts-134 crew conference
