the prime job for our entire mission

22
00:02:21,510 --> 00:02:19,440
we're installing ams today that'll be

23
00:02:23,430 --> 00:02:21,520
really exciting and we're uh we're also

24
00:02:25,350 --> 00:02:23,440
going to be getting ready to camp out

25
00:02:28,390 --> 00:02:25,360
overnight for eva once we had a lot of

26
00:02:29,589 --> 00:02:28,400
work to do today we're all ready to go

32
00:02:45,270 --> 00:02:43,519
214 statute miles over the pacific ocean

33
00:02:47,509 --> 00:02:45,280
on a southeasterly track that's soon

34
00:02:49,190 --> 00:02:47,519
going to take it over the equator and

35
00:02:51,830 --> 00:02:49,200
then eventually over the southern tip of

36
00:02:54,229 --> 00:02:51,840
south america again the oncoming team of

37
00:02:56,070 --> 00:02:54,239
flight controllers uh the orbit one team

38
00:02:57,830 --> 00:02:56,080
has completed its handovers about to

39
00:02:59,750 --> 00:02:57,840

who is working his final shift of the

48
00:03:22,390 --> 00:03:19,509
the ams will find its permanent home

49
00:03:25,030 --> 00:03:22,400
today after the crew finishes up its

50
00:03:26,229 --> 00:03:25,040
post sleep activities they'll head into

51
00:03:29,430 --> 00:03:26,239
the

52
00:03:30,789 --> 00:03:29,440
ams activities shortly after two o'clock

53
00:03:31,750 --> 00:03:30,799
central time

54
00:03:35,589 --> 00:03:31,760
the

00:03:41,110 --> 00:03:35,599
earth

56
00:03:42,470 --> 00:03:41,120
truss segment the zenith side if you

57
00:03:47,750 --> 00:03:42,480
will

58
00:03:52,070 --> 00:03:49,589
the split screen

59
00:03:55,270 --> 00:03:52,080
showing both sides of the payload bay

60
00:03:58,070 --> 00:03:55,280
the right and left side with the

61
00:04:07,509 --> 00:03:58,080
the guide pins for the alpha magnetic

62
00:04:12,550 --> 00:04:09,830
first step will be now that it is free

63
00:04:16,390 --> 00:04:12,560
of endeavors payload bay to

64
00:04:21,030 --> 00:04:16,400
raise the ams up to a low hover position

65
00:04:24,790 --> 00:04:22,870
once that is established after a couple

66
00:04:27,510 --> 00:04:24,800
of minutes the crew will be given a go

67
00:04:29,270 --> 00:04:27,520
to proceed on with

68
00:04:31,909 --> 00:04:29,280
maneuvering it over

69
00:04:33,830 --> 00:04:31,919
the side of endeavour's payload bay up

70
00:04:36,629 --> 00:04:33,840
toward the international space station

71
00:04:40,629 --> 00:04:36,639
for a handoff to the station's robotic

72
00:04:43,749 --> 00:04:41,670
thank

73
00:04:46,310 --> 00:04:43,759
hey i just wanted to let you know that

74
00:04:47,909 --> 00:04:46,320
uh we're putting emu

75
00:04:50,230 --> 00:04:47,919
lyo uh

76
00:04:53,110 --> 00:04:50,240
our new battery by uh lithium-ion

77
00:04:54,310 --> 00:04:53,120
battery 3004. that's going to go into

78
00:04:59,110 --> 00:04:54,320
drew's

79
00:05:37,510 --> 00:05:01,510
it's uh zero zero two one that's going

80
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,790
yeah go ahead

81
00:05:45,749 --> 00:05:43,189
another location to try to find that the

82
00:05:48,629 --> 00:05:45,759
wire canister would be the eva systems

83
00:05:49,749 --> 00:05:48,639
transfer bag and it is another mesh bag

84
00:05:52,710 --> 00:05:49,759
okay

85
00:05:56,230 --> 00:05:52,720
got that and we'll uh we'll work on that

86
00:05:58,070 --> 00:05:56,240
and we'll find it in the meantime uh

87
00:05:59,270 --> 00:05:58,080
it's been suggested that we go to a

88
00:06:00,710 --> 00:05:59,280
different loop

89
00:06:05,590 --> 00:06:00,720
would you like us to call you on either

90
00:06:09,189 --> 00:06:06,550
the

91
00:06:11,350 --> 00:06:09,199
shuttle's robotic arm now uh in motion

92
00:06:13,029 --> 00:06:11,360
once again

93
00:06:15,990 --> 00:06:13,039
the next maneuver

94
00:06:18,390 --> 00:06:16,000
will be to the handoff position

95
00:06:21,590 --> 00:06:18,400
relocating the

96
00:06:23,990 --> 00:06:21,600
ams now from the low hover position

97
00:06:27,029 --> 00:06:24,000
above endeavour's payload bay cwc

98
00:06:29,990 --> 00:06:27,039
terminate to the position

99
00:06:31,909 --> 00:06:30,000
that will be easiest for the station's

100
00:06:33,510 --> 00:06:31,919
grapple

101
00:06:36,469 --> 00:06:33,520
the end effector on the station's

102
00:06:39,110 --> 00:06:36,479
robotic arm to position itself

103
00:08:38,469 --> 00:06:39,120
on the alternate grapple fixture

104
00:08:44,870 --> 00:08:41,589
in houston cupola on the big loop um

105
00:08:50,870 --> 00:08:44,880
we're working some of the camera views

106
00:08:50,880 --> 00:09:01,190
houston copies

107
00:09:05,990 --> 00:09:03,509
the shuttle's robotic arm now has the

108
00:09:09,430 --> 00:09:06,000
brakes on it's in the position now for

109
00:09:14,550 --> 00:09:09,440
the handoff next up will be for the

110
00:09:19,590 --> 00:09:17,110
operated by greg shamatoff and

111
00:09:20,790 --> 00:09:19,600
greg johnson

112
00:09:22,949 --> 00:09:20,800
in the

113
00:09:25,110 --> 00:09:22,959
at the robotic workstation inside the

114
00:09:28,230 --> 00:09:25,120
space station in particular in the

115
00:09:33,269 --> 00:09:31,430
repositioning the camera views uh

116
00:09:39,910 --> 00:09:33,279
to

117
00:09:46,550 --> 00:09:42,949
the ams says the station's robotic arm

118
00:09:47,910 --> 00:09:46,560
gets ready to maneuver over to the

119
00:09:57,990 --> 00:09:47,920
ams

120
00:10:02,630 --> 00:10:00,550
and houston from cupola we are ready to

121
00:10:15,430 --> 00:10:02,640
proceed now we like our camera views

122
00:10:20,389 --> 00:10:18,710
at canadarm2 now being maneuvered

123
00:10:22,389 --> 00:10:20,399
from a

124
00:10:27,910 --> 00:10:22,399
robotic

125
00:10:30,470 --> 00:10:27,920
on the international space station being

126
00:10:33,829 --> 00:10:30,480
maneuvered into position to

127
00:10:35,590 --> 00:10:33,839
capture the alpha magnetic spectrometer

128
00:10:39,590 --> 00:10:35,600
currently in the firm grasp of the

129
00:10:47,030 --> 00:10:43,670
canadarm2 58 foot long

130
00:10:48,790 --> 00:10:47,040
robot arm delivered to the international

131
00:11:00,069 --> 00:10:48,800
space station back in april of two

132
00:11:03,509 --> 00:11:01,269
one of the

133
00:11:05,670 --> 00:11:03,519
major contributions of the canadian

134
00:11:59,750 --> 00:11:05,680
space agency to the international space

135
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,790
in a very uh

136
00:12:07,670 --> 00:12:05,350
clear view of the grapple pin

137
00:12:12,870 --> 00:12:07,680
on the grapple fixture of the

138
00:12:17,509 --> 00:12:15,269
the top of the view the end effector of

139
00:12:19,750 --> 00:12:17,519
the station's

140
00:12:22,150 --> 00:12:19,760
robotic arm canadarm2

141
00:12:23,430 --> 00:12:22,160
the arm is being positioned there are

142
00:12:25,350 --> 00:12:23,440
cameras

143
00:12:26,310 --> 00:12:25,360
that look straight down the length of

144
00:12:31,269 --> 00:12:26,320
the

145
00:12:33,590 --> 00:12:31,279
allow for a proper alignment

146
00:12:35,670 --> 00:12:33,600
the arm is being operated from the

147
00:12:36,790 --> 00:12:35,680
cupola on the international space

148
00:12:39,190 --> 00:12:36,800
station

149
00:12:41,670 --> 00:12:39,200
inside is a

150
00:12:43,430 --> 00:12:41,680
dedicated robotics workstation with its

151
00:12:47,350 --> 00:12:43,440
own screens

152
00:12:50,949 --> 00:12:49,829
see the the same view that you're seeing

153
00:12:53,030 --> 00:12:50,959
here

154
00:12:56,470 --> 00:12:53,040
so that they can align properly before

155
00:12:59,590 --> 00:12:56,480
moving in for grapple and in fact the

156
00:13:01,430 --> 00:12:59,600
the go has been given the arm is now in

157
00:13:23,030 --> 00:13:01,440
the process of being maneuvered in for

158
00:13:27,910 --> 00:13:25,590
houston endeavor air to ground two the

159
00:13:29,269 --> 00:13:27,920
second cwc

160
00:13:30,949 --> 00:13:29,279

64.

162
00:13:37,990 --> 00:13:35,680
and i transferred uh 1069 to jpm

163
00:13:40,150 --> 00:13:38,000
a5 it just seems like an odd place to

164
00:13:41,670 --> 00:13:40,160
put it inside a soft stowage rack that

165
00:13:43,910 --> 00:13:41,680
doesn't have a lot of room i just want

166
00:13:49,430 --> 00:13:43,920
you to double check and make sure that's

167
00:13:53,030 --> 00:13:51,750
mark we copy your work in 1064 now and

168
00:14:34,790 --> 00:13:53,040
we will double check that stowage

169
00:14:39,509 --> 00:14:37,030
and a good capture is confirmed the

170
00:14:41,110 --> 00:14:39,519
station robotic arm now is locked onto

171
00:14:42,230 --> 00:14:41,120
the grapple pin

172
00:14:44,550 --> 00:14:42,240

magnetic spectrometer that's great news

192
00:16:15,749 --> 00:16:14,320
i wanted to before we get to the

193
00:16:17,910 --> 00:16:15,759
questions from folks there wasn't a lot

194
00:16:21,590 --> 00:16:17,920
of time for folks on google moderator to

195
00:16:23,110 --> 00:16:21,600
weigh in on the tile damage i'm curious

196
00:16:25,269 --> 00:16:23,120
what your thoughts are on what you've

197
00:16:27,829 --> 00:16:25,279
seen how concerned are you about these

198
00:16:32,389 --> 00:16:27,839
uh ding tiles on the belly of the

199
00:16:35,990 --> 00:16:34,310
yeah so uh we took a look this morning

200
00:16:38,949 --> 00:16:36,000
at some of the photos and the message

201
00:16:41,269 --> 00:16:38,959
traffic that came up there's three areas

202
00:16:42,310 --> 00:16:41,279
that you know are a little bit of

203
00:16:44,710 --> 00:16:42,320
concern

204
00:16:46,230 --> 00:16:44,720
the team on the ground will decide over

205
00:16:48,230 --> 00:16:46,240
the next couple days if we have to take

206
00:16:49,990 --> 00:16:48,240
a closer look at it but

207
00:16:51,829 --> 00:16:50,000
the current damage doesn't seem i mean

208
00:16:56,470 --> 00:16:51,839
we've seen this kind of stuff before and

209
00:17:00,389 --> 00:16:58,710
hi commander kelly i'm spencer kelly but

210
00:17:02,470 --> 00:17:00,399

211
00:17:05,270 --> 00:17:02,480
i live in manbushy canada i was

212
00:17:07,110 --> 00:17:05,280
wondering after four times going space

213
00:17:15,590 --> 00:17:07,120
what do you look forward to most and go

214
00:17:18,309 --> 00:17:16,949
hi spencer

215
00:17:20,630 --> 00:17:18,319
i don't know could you hear it we have

216
00:17:21,909 --> 00:17:20,640
an honorary canadian on board next to me

217
00:17:25,590 --> 00:17:21,919
yeah we heard we heard the question

218
00:17:27,990 --> 00:17:25,600
miles uh after four times in flight okay

219
00:17:30,150 --> 00:17:28,000
what do i look forward to the most

220
00:17:31,830 --> 00:17:30,160
well you know these missions are very

221
00:17:33,830 --> 00:17:31,840
very challenging and very rewarding

222
00:17:35,990 --> 00:17:33,840
there's a lot to do

223
00:17:37,669 --> 00:17:36,000
i you know i particularly like looking

224
00:17:39,590 --> 00:17:37,679
at the earth and the small amount of

225
00:17:42,150 --> 00:17:39,600
chance we get but also

226
00:17:44,070 --> 00:17:42,160
flying through the space station is an

227
00:17:49,190 --> 00:17:44,080
awful lot of fun so the you know those

228
00:17:54,150 --> 00:17:51,350
all right let's go to question number

229
00:17:55,750 --> 00:17:54,160
two this one is a text question actually

230
00:17:57,750 --> 00:17:55,760
a couple of questions

231
00:17:59,350 --> 00:17:57,760
for you mark

232
00:18:01,750 --> 00:17:59,360
one of them comes from watertown new

233
00:18:03,990 --> 00:18:01,760
york the first one an observation from

234
00:18:06,070 --> 00:18:04,000
an old marine to an old sailor i don't

235
00:18:08,470 --> 00:18:06,080
know if you like the old part but he's a

236
00:18:10,470 --> 00:18:08,480
sailor for sure come back safely what's

237
00:18:11,590 --> 00:18:10,480
in store for our space program remains

238
00:18:13,830 --> 00:18:11,600
to be seen

239
00:18:15,669 --> 00:18:13,840
it will be exciting but not as exciting

240
00:18:17,830 --> 00:18:15,679
as seeing gabby back on her feet at full

241
00:18:19,430 --> 00:18:17,840
throttle and then this one from st

242
00:18:22,150 --> 00:18:19,440
mary's ohio

243
00:18:25,029 --> 00:18:22,160
uh this one is

244
00:18:26,870 --> 00:18:25,039
he says mr gifford it is difficult is it

245
00:18:29,029 --> 00:18:26,880
difficult leaving your wife even though

246
00:18:31,590 --> 00:18:29,039
she's doing well i think she would want

247
00:18:33,190 --> 00:18:31,600
to be where you are now god bless you

248
00:18:35,350 --> 00:18:33,200
and your wife and the whole crew and

249
00:18:38,070 --> 00:18:35,360
mark i'll just button it up with i know

250
00:18:39,830 --> 00:18:38,080
gabby had surgery yesterday i assume

251
00:18:44,789 --> 00:18:39,840
you've had some updates uh how are

252
00:18:48,549 --> 00:18:46,310
well i had the chance at the end of the

253
00:18:50,549 --> 00:18:48,559
day to call her mom

254
00:18:52,870 --> 00:18:50,559
and her chief of staff and my brother

255
00:18:54,549 --> 00:18:52,880
periodically through the

256
00:18:56,390 --> 00:18:54,559
as the surgery was going on and she's

257
00:18:58,549 --> 00:18:56,400
doing really well everything went as

258
00:19:01,029 --> 00:18:58,559
planned her neurosurgeons

259
00:19:02,310 --> 00:19:01,039
are are very happy she's recuperating

260
00:19:05,110 --> 00:19:02,320
and she's actually getting back to

261
00:19:07,750 --> 00:19:05,120
therapy today so it went went really

262
00:19:10,549 --> 00:19:09,270
yeah i think it was about about 20

263
00:19:12,549 --> 00:19:10,559
seconds after launch you guys

264
00:19:15,430 --> 00:19:12,559
disappeared uh i tell you what pass the

265
00:19:17,750 --> 00:19:15,440
mic over to ron garan ron uh who is a

266
00:19:19,110 --> 00:19:17,760
space station keeper and uh

267
00:19:22,390 --> 00:19:19,120
spent a little bit of time up there you

268
00:19:24,150 --> 00:19:22,400
tweeted um a photo

269
00:19:26,549 --> 00:19:24,160
of the mississippi river the other day

270
00:19:28,870 --> 00:19:26,559
and nasa has been sending images as well

271
00:19:34,230 --> 00:19:28,880
what's it like to see uh the devastation

272
00:19:37,830 --> 00:19:35,669
well miles that's an interesting

273
00:19:39,990 --> 00:19:37,840
question because you know we do have

274
00:19:41,830 --> 00:19:40,000
this sense of isolation being up here

275
00:19:43,909 --> 00:19:41,840
you know you know living off the planet

276
00:19:45,590 --> 00:19:43,919
but at the same time you know even

277
00:19:47,590 --> 00:19:45,600
though we have this sense of isolation

278
00:19:49,190 --> 00:19:47,600
we have we have the ability to be more

279
00:19:51,430 --> 00:19:49,200
connected with things on the ground

280
00:19:53,350 --> 00:19:51,440
because we fly over it all the time so

281
00:19:55,190 --> 00:19:53,360
you know watching you know

282
00:19:57,669 --> 00:19:55,200
the mississippi river flooding on the

283
00:19:59,110 --> 00:19:57,679
news and then flying over it are two

284
00:20:01,669 --> 00:19:59,120
different things and seeing with their

285
00:20:02,870 --> 00:20:01,679
own eyes the uh you know the devastation

286
00:20:04,870 --> 00:20:02,880
and and the uh

287
00:20:07,190 --> 00:20:04,880
and the tragedy that's going on in that

288
00:20:08,549 --> 00:20:07,200
area of the of the country

289
00:20:10,149 --> 00:20:08,559
you know is really something and we feel

290
00:20:12,549 --> 00:20:10,159
a responsibility to try and document

291
00:20:14,149 --> 00:20:12,559
that as best we can as as time allows

292
00:20:18,789 --> 00:20:14,159
and take as many pictures of that area

293
00:20:22,710 --> 00:20:20,710
the hardest thing about being in space

294
00:20:25,350 --> 00:20:22,720
hello from uh the international space

295
00:20:27,270 --> 00:20:25,360
station got your question and uh cali

296
00:20:29,350 --> 00:20:27,280
and anderson my favorite thing about

297
00:20:30,870 --> 00:20:29,360
being in space is flying and yesterday

298
00:20:32,390 --> 00:20:30,880
we opened up the hatch the international

299
00:20:34,549 --> 00:20:32,400
space station and i could really stretch

300
00:20:36,630 --> 00:20:34,559
my legs and fly from one end to the

301
00:20:38,470 --> 00:20:36,640
other we have a beautiful space station

302
00:20:40,149 --> 00:20:38,480
i also really like looking at our

303
00:20:41,510 --> 00:20:40,159
beautiful planet uh it's the most

304
00:20:43,029 --> 00:20:41,520
beautiful planet in the whole solar

305
00:20:44,950 --> 00:20:43,039
system

306
00:20:46,149 --> 00:20:44,960
uh drew feustel

307
00:20:49,029 --> 00:20:46,159
this one

308
00:20:51,430 --> 00:20:49,039
from the the grinning man from youtube

309
00:20:55,029 --> 00:20:51,440
the question is how realistic is obama's

310
00:20:56,870 --> 00:20:55,039
promise to visit the planet mars by 2030

311
00:21:06,149 --> 00:20:56,880
do you believe it is possible to do it

312
00:21:11,029 --> 00:21:07,909
hey hi miles how you doing thanks for

313
00:21:12,789 --> 00:21:11,039
the thanks for the question and um

314
00:21:14,149 --> 00:21:12,799
it's sort of a bigger question i think

315
00:21:15,510 --> 00:21:14,159
to answer is

316
00:21:17,350 --> 00:21:15,520
you know what direction we're going and

317
00:21:19,029 --> 00:21:17,360
i think we're all as space explorers

318
00:21:20,149 --> 00:21:19,039
interested in uh eventually getting on

319
00:21:22,310 --> 00:21:20,159
to mars

320
00:21:24,149 --> 00:21:22,320
and uh also visiting the moon since

321
00:21:26,149 --> 00:21:24,159
that's our nearest neighbor

322
00:21:28,070 --> 00:21:26,159
in my vision can we do it sooner i think

323
00:21:30,149 --> 00:21:28,080
we can and hopefully with the progress

324
00:21:32,149 --> 00:21:30,159
we're making with the commercial launch

325
00:21:34,149 --> 00:21:32,159
vehicles and what nasa is doing for

326
00:21:35,830 --> 00:21:34,159
heavy lift and with the intent as long

327
00:21:38,950 --> 00:21:35,840
as you know we have the intent to make

328
00:21:40,470 --> 00:21:38,960
it on to uh to mars eventually uh you

329
00:21:42,789 --> 00:21:40,480
know we will get there as humans i don't

330
00:21:44,390 --> 00:21:42,799
think we'll ever stop exploring and

331
00:21:46,149 --> 00:21:44,400
we're all excited to be a part of the uh

332
00:21:47,510 --> 00:21:46,159
the great adventure really all starting

333
00:21:48,710 --> 00:21:47,520
right here on the international space

334
00:21:50,710 --> 00:21:48,720
station

335
00:21:53,190 --> 00:21:50,720
uh at what point during the mission does

336
00:21:55,830 --> 00:21:53,200
it sink in that you are one of only the

337
00:21:57,830 --> 00:21:55,840
few one of the only few people on earth

338
00:21:59,430 --> 00:21:57,840
to have been able to see earth from

339
00:22:00,230 --> 00:21:59,440
space

340
00:22:03,029 --> 00:22:00,240
yeah

341
00:22:04,549 --> 00:22:03,039
as a point of order order both taz and i

342
00:22:07,909 --> 00:22:04,559
were not uh

343
00:22:09,590 --> 00:22:07,919
uh we were not a wall we were actually

344
00:22:12,549 --> 00:22:09,600
uh just finishing up with the ams

345
00:22:15,270 --> 00:22:12,559
install but to answer your question um i

346
00:22:17,990 --> 00:22:15,280
think that uh any mode of transportation

347
00:22:19,830 --> 00:22:18,000
like cars and airplanes progress along

348
00:22:21,110 --> 00:22:19,840
and in space there's been almost 500

349
00:22:22,710 --> 00:22:21,120
people that have looked at the earth

350
00:22:25,510 --> 00:22:22,720
from space

351
00:22:26,390 --> 00:22:25,520
and i think uh in a few decades there

352
00:22:28,789 --> 00:22:26,400
will be

353
00:22:31,270 --> 00:22:28,799
many many uh multitudes of more people

354
00:22:33,750 --> 00:22:31,280
that get to see the earth from space but

355
00:22:36,230 --> 00:22:33,760
i can tell you it's a great honor and uh

356
00:22:39,029 --> 00:22:36,240
i cherish every moment

357
00:22:40,870 --> 00:22:39,039
yeah i just want to say a few words to

358
00:22:42,710 --> 00:22:40,880
you and to your crew

359
00:22:43,909 --> 00:22:42,720
and thank you very much for the great

360
00:22:47,909 --> 00:22:43,919
ride

361
00:22:51,029 --> 00:22:47,919
and safe delivery of ams to the station

362
00:22:53,590 --> 00:22:51,039
your support and fantastic work

363
00:22:54,950 --> 00:22:53,600
has taken us one step closer to

364
00:22:57,990 --> 00:22:54,960
realizing

365
00:22:59,830 --> 00:22:58,000
the signs potential of ms

366
00:23:01,669 --> 00:22:59,840
well thank you sam i was just looking

367
00:23:05,430 --> 00:23:01,679
out the window of the orbiter and ams

368
00:23:07,430 --> 00:23:05,440
looks absolutely fantastic on the truss

369
00:23:09,510 --> 00:23:07,440
i know you you guys are really excited

370
00:23:11,270 --> 00:23:09,520
and you're probably getting data and

371
00:23:12,630 --> 00:23:11,280
looking at it already i'm going to turn

372
00:23:13,510 --> 00:23:12,640
the mic over

373
00:23:16,230 --> 00:23:13,520
to

374
00:23:19,830 --> 00:23:16,240
the box and pass and let them make a

375
00:23:21,750 --> 00:23:19,840
couple comments about how that all went

376
00:23:24,070 --> 00:23:21,760
we have been waiting for

377
00:23:25,110 --> 00:23:24,080
this play a long time and

378
00:23:26,630 --> 00:23:25,120
me and

379
00:23:28,950 --> 00:23:26,640
drew feistel

380
00:23:31,750 --> 00:23:28,960
this morning

381
00:23:33,990 --> 00:23:31,760
very early start to prepare

382
00:23:36,390 --> 00:23:34,000
everything went very smoothly their

383
00:23:37,909 --> 00:23:36,400
bodyguard performed perfectly

384
00:23:39,750 --> 00:23:37,919
and

385
00:23:41,750 --> 00:23:39,760
within the time that we were given we

386
00:23:44,549 --> 00:23:41,760
were ready to end it off to

387
00:23:46,230 --> 00:23:44,559
box and pass

388
00:23:47,750 --> 00:23:46,240
that would be great you know and ever

389
00:23:49,350 --> 00:23:47,760
since the first time that we met you

390
00:23:50,710 --> 00:23:49,360
with cern and your team

391
00:23:52,870 --> 00:23:50,720
it's really been an honor for all of us

392
00:23:54,789 --> 00:23:52,880
to be part of this project uh you know

393
00:23:55,830 --> 00:23:54,799
ours is a very very small part you know

394
00:23:59,990 --> 00:23:55,840
but uh

395
00:24:01,909 --> 00:24:00,000
see this this day come true you know now

396
00:24:03,830 --> 00:24:01,919
ams is installed it's on the station

397
00:24:05,830 --> 00:24:03,840
it's gonna stay here for the life of the

398
00:24:07,990 --> 00:24:05,840
station and we're really excited to see

399
00:24:09,350 --> 00:24:08,000
what what kind of results uh you know

400
00:24:11,590 --> 00:24:09,360
what we can learn what you guys can

401
00:24:13,669 --> 00:24:11,600
learn and teach us from having ams up

402
00:24:15,190 --> 00:24:13,679
here you know and you know and the two

403
00:24:16,630 --> 00:24:15,200
are not talking but you know there's so

404
00:24:18,789 --> 00:24:16,640
many people who've been involved in

405
00:24:20,549 --> 00:24:18,799
planning the operation specifically as

406
00:24:22,390 --> 00:24:20,559
we did today the robotics and the

407
00:24:24,230 --> 00:24:22,400
installation the mechanisms and then

408
00:24:26,789 --> 00:24:24,240
your whole team who's been working

409
00:24:28,950 --> 00:24:26,799
working uh tirelessly for so many years

410
00:24:32,470 --> 00:24:28,960
to get ams ready to go so we're really

411
00:24:33,990 --> 00:24:32,480
happy to be at this point and and thanks

412
00:24:40,149 --> 00:24:34,000
for sharing the

413
00:24:53,029 --> 00:24:41,909
excellent we're happy to hear both of

414
00:24:57,590 --> 00:24:55,350
space walkers for tomorrow inside the

415
00:25:01,830 --> 00:24:57,600
quest airlock uh greg shimatov here in

416
00:25:06,789 --> 00:25:05,190
water holder that the crew uses to allow

417
00:25:08,710 --> 00:25:06,799
them to have something to drink during

418
00:25:12,149 --> 00:25:08,720
the six and a half hour long space walks

419
00:25:15,590 --> 00:25:13,669
and in the red

420
00:25:17,269 --> 00:25:15,600
at the bottom of the screen drew feustel

421
00:25:18,549 --> 00:25:17,279
the other space walker

422
00:25:19,750 --> 00:25:18,559
feustel is actually the lead space

423
00:25:23,350 --> 00:25:19,760
walker for the mission is going to be

424
00:25:25,830 --> 00:25:23,360
wearing the uh spacesuit that has a

425
00:25:36,950 --> 00:25:25,840
solid red stripe on it while shamitoff

426
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:43,430
katie coleman scott simon how are you

427
00:25:47,669 --> 00:25:45,269
i am uh great it's nice to hear your

428
00:25:49,909 --> 00:25:47,679
voice uh in this way i listen to npr up

429
00:25:51,590 --> 00:25:49,919
here they send it up every day to me oh

430
00:25:53,750 --> 00:25:51,600
thank you tell us about the mission

431
00:25:56,789 --> 00:25:53,760
you've got some awfully expensive

432
00:25:59,510 --> 00:25:56,799
equipment on board well yes scott we

433
00:26:00,950 --> 00:25:59,520
just installed uh the alpha magnetic

434
00:26:03,110 --> 00:26:00,960
spectrometer

435
00:26:04,710 --> 00:26:03,120
it's a two billion dollar cosmic

436
00:26:07,430 --> 00:26:04,720
particle detector

437
00:26:09,510 --> 00:26:07,440
really a premier uh physics experiment

438
00:26:12,070 --> 00:26:09,520
that's supported by 16 different

439
00:26:13,750 --> 00:26:12,080
countries 600 physicists

440
00:26:15,990 --> 00:26:13,760
i mean it's big pretty big projects

441
00:26:17,590 --> 00:26:16,000
managed out in cern switzerland

442
00:26:20,149 --> 00:26:17,600
uh they've been working on this thing a

443
00:26:22,710 --> 00:26:20,159
lot of people for a long time and today

444
00:26:24,630 --> 00:26:22,720
uh with the help of roberto vittori drew

445
00:26:26,789 --> 00:26:24,640
feustel

446
00:26:28,470 --> 00:26:26,799
greg chamotop and greg johnson we got it

447
00:26:31,269 --> 00:26:28,480
successfully installed on the space

448
00:26:32,630 --> 00:26:31,279
station it's a great day for science

449
00:26:34,549 --> 00:26:32,640
well i don't know where the time goes

450
00:26:36,789 --> 00:26:34,559
but i'll tell you it's a very busy place

451
00:26:37,830 --> 00:26:36,799
we've got like 130 different experiments

452
00:26:39,990 --> 00:26:37,840
running

453
00:26:41,909 --> 00:26:40,000
almost at the same time some of them

454
00:26:43,590 --> 00:26:41,919
up here on the space station and then

455
00:26:45,990 --> 00:26:43,600
maintaining the space station and also

456
00:26:47,190 --> 00:26:46,000
maintaining ourselves and doing some

457
00:26:48,310 --> 00:26:47,200
some medical work some medical

458
00:26:49,909 --> 00:26:48,320
experiments

459
00:26:51,750 --> 00:26:49,919
just to maintain your bone mass you need

460
00:26:54,230 --> 00:26:51,760
to exercise about two hours a day up

461
00:26:57,430 --> 00:26:54,240
here so i would say every day is a busy

462
00:26:58,630 --> 00:26:57,440
day and a great day up here

463
00:27:00,390 --> 00:26:58,640
this um

464
00:27:02,870 --> 00:27:00,400
this might well be your last ride in

465
00:27:09,029 --> 00:27:02,880
space i wonder what your thoughts are

466
00:27:13,269 --> 00:27:11,029
you know the earth's an incredibly

467
00:27:15,350 --> 00:27:13,279
beautiful planet it's uh you know it's

468
00:27:17,029 --> 00:27:15,360
hard to understand sometimes all the all

469
00:27:19,750 --> 00:27:17,039
the conflict

470
00:27:21,350 --> 00:27:19,760
in such a in such a beautiful place

471
00:27:22,950 --> 00:27:21,360
you know it is uh

472
00:27:24,549 --> 00:27:22,960
it's possible that this is my last

473
00:27:25,830 --> 00:27:24,559
flight you know this is a really hard

474
00:27:28,789 --> 00:27:25,840
thing to give up

475
00:27:31,110 --> 00:27:28,799
it's uh very exciting to

476
00:27:32,950 --> 00:27:31,120
and it's a pr be frank it's a big

477
00:27:34,470 --> 00:27:32,960
privilege for all of us to have the

478
00:27:36,870 --> 00:27:34,480
opportunity to

479
00:27:39,750 --> 00:27:36,880
serve our countries in this in this way

480
00:27:41,350 --> 00:27:39,760
so it's a tough thing uh

481
00:27:44,070 --> 00:27:41,360
you know but to to answer your question

482
00:27:46,630 --> 00:27:44,080
scott you know just looking down it's

483
00:27:48,230 --> 00:27:46,640
we've got a very fragile and beautiful

484
00:27:49,909 --> 00:27:48,240
place to live and we we need to take

485
00:27:52,070 --> 00:27:49,919
care of it

486
00:27:53,990 --> 00:27:52,080
good thank you um how hard is it going

487
00:27:56,230 --> 00:27:54,000
to be for the remaining station crew

488
00:27:58,070 --> 00:27:56,240
members to keep the outpost going

489
00:28:02,549 --> 00:27:58,080
particularly with the shuttle crew

490
00:28:06,070 --> 00:28:04,549
well you know this uh this shuttle crew

491
00:28:07,909 --> 00:28:06,080
it's like you know there's guests that

492
00:28:09,830 --> 00:28:07,919
are just not guests um two of them have

493
00:28:12,230 --> 00:28:09,840
flown before on station

494
00:28:14,549 --> 00:28:12,240
and all of them just have a really great

495
00:28:16,230 --> 00:28:14,559
attitude about working together and i

496
00:28:18,710 --> 00:28:16,240
think that makes it a lot easier for the

497
00:28:21,990 --> 00:28:18,720
four uh the three folks that will remain

498
00:28:23,510 --> 00:28:22,000
uh ron and sasha and andre and so you

499
00:28:25,269 --> 00:28:23,520
know it's it is more work and actually

500
00:28:27,269 --> 00:28:25,279
paulo and i if you took our vote we

501
00:28:29,909 --> 00:28:27,279
would stay and make sure that we saw

502
00:28:31,590 --> 00:28:29,919
them often and then go back home but uh

503
00:28:33,590 --> 00:28:31,600
this is just the way the vehicles line

504
00:28:35,669 --> 00:28:33,600
up and ron's been here for a while and

505
00:28:37,110 --> 00:28:35,679
he knows the ropes and um it's you know

506
00:28:38,470 --> 00:28:37,120
i think it just turns into a bunch of

507
00:28:40,549 --> 00:28:38,480
people working together making the best

508
00:28:43,110 --> 00:28:40,559
of it and it'll be fine

509
00:28:45,669 --> 00:28:43,120
thanks um how important are these last

510
00:28:55,430 --> 00:28:45,679
evas by shuttle crew members for iss

511
00:28:58,630 --> 00:28:56,950
well we've got a

512
00:29:01,110 --> 00:28:58,640
you know a number of tasks over four

513
00:29:03,669 --> 00:29:01,120
evas uh we've got

514
00:29:05,269 --> 00:29:03,679
in on each eva as you probably know

515
00:29:06,310 --> 00:29:05,279
we've got two spacewalking crew members

516
00:29:08,710 --> 00:29:06,320
outside

517
00:29:10,389 --> 00:29:08,720
for about six to six and a half hours

518
00:29:13,190 --> 00:29:10,399
getting getting the space station in a

519
00:29:14,950 --> 00:29:13,200
good configuration to um to proceed

520
00:29:17,750 --> 00:29:14,960
without the availability of the space

521
00:29:20,870 --> 00:29:17,760
shuttle we're gonna fly sts-135 in june

522
00:29:22,149 --> 00:29:20,880
hopefully uh that's the current or july

523
00:29:23,669 --> 00:29:22,159
rather and

524
00:29:25,110 --> 00:29:23,679
and then after that there won't be any

525
00:29:26,549 --> 00:29:25,120
shuttle-based evas but we have an

526
00:29:28,789 --> 00:29:26,559
airlock we'll be going out the station

527
00:29:29,750 --> 00:29:28,799
airlock here tomorrow space station crew

528
00:29:31,830 --> 00:29:29,760
members

529
00:29:34,149 --> 00:29:31,840
are all trained to do eva

530
00:29:35,909 --> 00:29:34,159
and uh we'll probably see some station

531
00:29:37,669 --> 00:29:35,919
evas in the future but we're just with

532
00:29:39,669 --> 00:29:37,679
our four evas this

533
00:29:40,870 --> 00:29:39,679
this week and and next week we're trying

534
00:29:42,230 --> 00:29:40,880
to get the station in a really good

535
00:29:43,830 --> 00:29:42,240
config

536
00:29:45,190 --> 00:29:43,840
thanks i'm told we're out of time good

537
00:29:50,789 --> 00:29:45,200
luck with the rest of the mission and
