to my beautiful family and thanks for

6
00:01:54,620 --> 00:01:53,009
that fantastic song by the great

7
00:01:57,740 --> 00:01:54,630
canadian rock band The Tragically Hip

8
00:01:59,240 --> 00:01:57,750
great friends of ours and I'm happy that

9
00:02:02,419 --> 00:01:59,250
my wife and kids were able to share that

10
00:02:04,340 --> 00:02:02,429
with me I know they tried last time and

11
00:02:06,289 --> 00:02:04,350
we weren't able to get it up but it's

12
00:02:08,870 --> 00:02:06,299
really great to hear that music and it

13
00:02:11,180 --> 00:02:08,880
reminds me of all my my friends and

14

to many more happy in special days up

21
00:02:29,930 --> 00:02:28,140
here it's been thanks this is Mission

22
00:02:31,970 --> 00:02:29,940
Control Houston with that now you've

23
00:02:35,210 --> 00:02:31,980
heard the Endeavour crew now awakened

24
00:02:36,710 --> 00:02:35,220
that song was for drew Feustel played at

25
00:02:39,319 --> 00:02:36,720
the request of his family that song

26
00:02:43,849 --> 00:02:39,329
entitled in view by the band tragically

27
00:02:45,710 --> 00:02:43,859
hip the crew will now have some personal

28
00:02:46,940 --> 00:02:45,720
time for hygiene and breakfast before

29
00:02:48,349 --> 00:02:46,950
they start on their activities of the

30
00:02:50,690 --> 00:02:48,359
day which will primarily focus on

31
00:02:52,819 --> 00:02:50,700
robotics as well as a focused inspection

32
00:02:55,309 --> 00:02:52,829
of a small area on the shuttles

33
00:03:02,509 --> 00:02:55,319
underside as well as preparations for

34
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:04,140
and this be

35
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:06,250
showing the position of the station's

36
00:03:17,130 --> 00:03:09,810
robotic arm it's in a pre grapple

37
00:03:22,710 --> 00:03:17,140
position the restraint latches have been

38
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:22,720
released on the orbiter boom sensor

39
00:03:28,740 --> 00:03:25,450
system once those now that that's

40
00:03:35,750 --> 00:03:28,750
confirmed the station's robotic arm

41
00:03:41,430 --> 00:03:35,760
which is being operated this morning by

42
00:03:45,089 --> 00:03:41,440
Roberto Vittori and drew Feustel it will

43
00:03:48,030 --> 00:03:45,099
slowly lift that OB SSO orbiter boom

44
00:03:51,179 --> 00:03:48,040
sensor system off of the right sill of

45
00:03:54,300 --> 00:03:51,189
endeavours payload Bay and reposition it

46
00:04:00,000 --> 00:03:54,310
for the grapple by the shuttles robot

47
00:04:01,860 --> 00:04:00,010
arm for the handoff the because of where

48
00:04:03,660 --> 00:04:01,870
the shuttle is docked to the

49
00:04:06,319 --> 00:04:03,670
International Space Station the shuttles

50
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:06,329
robot arm cannot reach across and

51
00:04:15,300 --> 00:04:09,370
capture the grapple pin at the end of

52
00:04:18,319 --> 00:04:15,310
the boom and thus the reason for the use

53
00:04:46,890 --> 00:04:18,329
of the station's arm to assist with that

54
00:04:52,260 --> 00:04:49,920
and on the big blue p.s srms in the ods

55
00:05:11,879 --> 00:04:52,270
s hand off of Oregon you go over as

56
00:05:17,719 --> 00:05:14,670
now that the shuttle arm has a firm grip

57
00:05:20,999 --> 00:05:17,729
on the OB SS the station arm has now

58
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:21,009
released the grapple pin for quick

59
00:06:36,689 --> 00:05:25,930
stowage coming that's at the midpoint of

60
00:06:43,059 --> 00:06:40,270
this provides a really good view of

61
00:06:45,219 --> 00:06:43,069
where the shuttle's robotic arm is in

62
00:06:47,230 --> 00:06:45,229
relation to the left wing it's

63
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:47,240
stretching down over the left side of

64
00:06:52,779 --> 00:06:50,090
the orbiter and then the the boom is

65
00:06:58,920 --> 00:06:52,789
back underneath pointed back underneath

66
00:07:02,170 --> 00:06:58,930
the the left wing of the vehicle and

67
00:07:04,450 --> 00:07:02,180
with that orbiter boom sensor system on

68
00:07:06,189 --> 00:07:04,460
the end of the robot arm it's looking

69
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:06,199
all the way across the underside of the

70
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:09,289
vehicle over toward the right side it

71
00:07:15,219 --> 00:07:11,930
actually will be positioned with the tip

72
00:07:19,629 --> 00:07:15,229
or the sensor package with the laser

73
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:19,639
camera system pointed about 7 feet or so

74
00:07:30,879 --> 00:07:27,370
away from the area of interest we've got

75
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:30,889
four point eight and minus 53.6 we got

76
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:32,690
the damage in the middle of the beauty

77
00:07:39,670 --> 00:07:38,330
like of you checking and endeavour

78
00:07:41,290 --> 00:07:39,680
Houston air-to-ground too while we're

79
00:07:49,839 --> 00:07:41,300
checking for the view can you get brakes

80
00:07:51,610 --> 00:07:49,849
on for us please wake up endeavour

81
00:07:53,469 --> 00:07:51,620
Houston air-to-ground to a quick note

82
00:07:55,959 --> 00:07:53,479
about your camera alpha we are seeing

83
00:07:58,029 --> 00:07:55,969
that heat up it should give you an

84
00:07:59,680 --> 00:07:58,039
indication on the screen if it reaches a

85
00:08:01,120 --> 00:07:59,690
level that's problematic just wanted to

86
00:08:07,439 --> 00:08:01,130
let you know if you're not using it you

87
00:08:17,050 --> 00:08:13,480
okay copy you like the view and this is

88
00:08:19,689 --> 00:08:17,060
the view of the damaged area that the

89
00:08:22,779 --> 00:08:19,699
tile that crosses essentially over a

90
00:08:26,439 --> 00:08:22,789
couple of tiles this area is between the

91
00:08:29,350 --> 00:08:26,449
right main landing gear door and the

92
00:08:34,620 --> 00:08:29,360
external tank door on the starboard side

93
00:08:36,819 --> 00:08:34,630
of the right side and again the

94
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:36,829
characterization that the damage

95
00:08:42,459 --> 00:08:38,930
assessment team is looking for is the

96
00:08:45,699 --> 00:08:42,469
the actual depth of this the imagery

97
00:08:47,560 --> 00:08:45,709
that was obtained on endeavours approach

98
00:08:49,500 --> 00:08:47,570
to the International Space Station was

99
00:08:54,060 --> 00:08:49,510
not able to give them

100
00:08:58,510 --> 00:08:54,070
enough data imagery data to provide a

101
00:09:01,780 --> 00:08:58,520
three-dimensional coverage and that led

102
00:09:26,310 --> 00:09:01,790
to the decision to request a focused

103
00:09:32,829 --> 00:09:30,220
and endeavour we would like the AE box

104
00:09:51,570 --> 00:09:32,839
slightly smaller to just encompass the

105
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:54,180
actual still images the crews adjusting

106
00:09:58,260 --> 00:09:56,650
the box around that that will provide

107
00:10:01,590 --> 00:09:58,270
the highest fidelity so they're

108
00:10:04,860 --> 00:10:01,600
adjusting based on the damage assessment

109
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:04,870
teams input as to how small that box

110
00:10:10,020 --> 00:10:07,210
would be it's essentially cropping the

111
00:10:19,550 --> 00:10:10,030
image down to the actual size of the

112
00:10:25,590 --> 00:10:21,930
Roberto our request now is for you to

113
00:10:28,350 --> 00:10:25,600
bring the box to just inside the damaged

114
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:28,360
area and if possible if you can send mid

115
00:10:34,580 --> 00:10:30,250
deck to downlink that will speed up our

116
00:10:48,110 --> 00:10:43,230
endeavour Houston we like the view okay

117
00:11:00,180 --> 00:10:58,800
we concur so with the view everybody

118
00:11:05,910 --> 00:11:00,190
agreeing that they liked the view

119
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:05,920
through the camera the focus inspection

120
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:08,410
officially could be considered beginning

121
00:11:14,820 --> 00:11:12,210
at 34 minutes after the hour the

122
00:11:21,930 --> 00:11:14,830
positioning of it began about 25 after

123
00:11:24,390 --> 00:11:21,940
the hour this closing in the black box

124
00:11:27,270 --> 00:11:24,400
around that damaged site will give them

125
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:27,280
the highest fidelity that they can get

126
00:11:33,870 --> 00:11:29,850
for the damage assessment team to

127
00:11:38,540 --> 00:11:33,880
produce a three-dimensional image which

128
00:11:41,220 --> 00:11:38,550
will allow them to very accurately

129
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:41,230
determine the depth of the damage of

130
00:11:48,180 --> 00:11:44,050
that particular tile area bathing we

131
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:48,190
select scandal road here Lewis with in

132
00:11:52,329 --> 00:11:50,410
size and position leaving box is

133
00:11:54,340 --> 00:11:52,339
required visit

134
00:11:56,980 --> 00:11:54,350
we find a second mcc for the bill

135
00:12:02,230 --> 00:11:56,990
remember we have immediately connected

136
00:12:05,019 --> 00:12:02,240
an eye to eye res I got that okay to do

137
00:12:07,420 --> 00:12:05,029
the post idiot there were no promise you

138
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:07,430
sure that's the case TMG thats what

139
00:12:15,939 --> 00:12:12,050
stops in another case call it at 40 10

140
00:12:19,170 --> 00:12:15,949
sounds good and so at 40 40 I would it

141
00:12:22,660 --> 00:12:19,180
stops it okay there are five different

142
00:12:26,170 --> 00:12:22,670
scan locations and this is the second of

143
00:12:30,749 --> 00:12:26,180
those five again the different angles

144
00:12:33,900 --> 00:12:30,759
will allow the damage assessment team to

145
00:12:38,199 --> 00:12:33,910
provide a very detailed

146
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:38,209
three-dimensional image after gathering

147
00:12:44,230 --> 00:12:42,050
all of this data on the ground Euston

148
00:12:47,499 --> 00:12:44,240
station are spaced allowed to we are

149
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:47,509
ready for the event ISA and Ozzy this is

150
00:12:51,790 --> 00:12:49,370
Houston please call station for a voice

specialists who just did his first

196
00:15:16,390 --> 00:15:14,060
spacewalk yesterday and then drew

197
00:15:17,890 --> 00:15:16,400
Feustel who's our lead spacewalker for

198
00:15:22,150 --> 00:15:17,900
this mission who's going to do three

199
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:22,160
spacewalks and next to Drew is Mike Fink

200
00:15:27,250 --> 00:15:24,530
who after this mission will be the

201
00:15:29,830 --> 00:15:27,260
American with the most time in space and

202
00:15:33,130 --> 00:15:29,840
won't be a pro chin what the Russians

203
00:15:36,730 --> 00:15:33,140
have but a lot of days in space welcome

204
00:15:38,890 --> 00:15:36,740
aboard your holiness thank you very much

205
00:15:41,530 --> 00:15:38,900
for your introduction then i'll give you

206
00:15:44,620 --> 00:15:41,540
the floor to easily nessa who would like

207
00:15:47,530 --> 00:15:44,630
it to say a few words for all of us and

208
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:47,540
maybe some question for some of you

209
00:15:53,410 --> 00:15:51,770
thank you / the astronauts and very

210
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:53,420
happy to assist extraordinary

211
00:15:58,720 --> 00:15:56,210
opportunity to converse with you during

212
00:16:00,880 --> 00:15:58,730
your mission and especially grateful to

213
00:16:03,220 --> 00:16:00,890
be able to speak to so many of you as

214
00:16:06,340 --> 00:16:03,230
both screws are present on this pc

215
00:16:09,100 --> 00:16:06,350
tuition of this time humanity is

216
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:09,110
experiencing a period of extremely rapid

217
00:16:14,290 --> 00:16:11,330
progress in surveys of scientific

218
00:16:17,980 --> 00:16:14,300
knowledge and technical applications in

219
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:17,990
a sense you are our representatives

220
00:16:23,620 --> 00:16:20,450
pear heating humanities exploration of

221
00:16:27,550 --> 00:16:23,630
new spaces and possibilities for future

222
00:16:31,180 --> 00:16:27,560
comb Beyonce limitations of our everyday

223
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:31,190
existence you'll admire your courage as

224
00:16:35,769 --> 00:16:34,010
well as a discipline and commitment this

225
00:16:38,860 --> 00:16:35,779
which you prepared yourself for this

226
00:16:41,290 --> 00:16:38,870
mission we are convinced inspired by no

227
00:16:43,870 --> 00:16:41,300
blood years and says in ten placings the

228
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:43,880
results of research and endeavors as a

229
00:16:49,690 --> 00:16:46,730
disposal of all humanity and for the

230
00:16:52,329 --> 00:16:49,700
common good this conversation gives me a

231
00:16:55,210 --> 00:16:52,339
chance to express my own admiration and

232
00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:55,220
appreciation to you and tolls also

233
00:16:59,530 --> 00:16:57,170
collaborate in making a mission possible

234
00:17:01,480 --> 00:16:59,540
entered my heartfelt encouragement to

235
00:17:05,890 --> 00:17:01,490
bring it to a safe and successful

236
00:17:08,110 --> 00:17:05,900
conclusion but this is a conversation so

237
00:17:10,540 --> 00:17:08,120
I must not be the only one doing the

238
00:17:12,970 --> 00:17:10,550
talking and very courage to hear you

239
00:17:15,819 --> 00:17:12,980
tell me about the experiences and your

240
00:17:19,650 --> 00:17:15,829
reflections if you don't mind I would

241
00:17:23,079 --> 00:17:19,660
like to ask to ask you a few questions

242
00:17:26,260 --> 00:17:23,089
first question from the space situation

243
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:26,270
if a very different users you fly over

244
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:28,970
different continents and nations several

245
00:17:34,690 --> 00:17:31,850
times a day I think it must be obvious

246
00:17:37,690 --> 00:17:34,700
to you how we all live together on one

247
00:17:41,860 --> 00:17:37,700
earth and how absurd it is that we fight

248
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:41,870
and kill each one i knows if Mark Ellis

249
00:17:47,070 --> 00:17:43,970
wife was a victim of a serious attack

250
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:47,080
and i hope her haze continues to improve

251
00:17:53,549 --> 00:17:49,970
and you're contemplating sales from up

252
00:17:55,900 --> 00:17:53,559
there so you ever wonder about survey

253
00:17:58,780 --> 00:17:55,910
nations and people live together down

254
00:18:03,810 --> 00:17:58,790
here about how science can contribute to

255
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:03,820
the cause of peace well thank you for

256
00:18:11,500 --> 00:18:07,850
the kind words your holiness and thank

257
00:18:14,470 --> 00:18:11,510
you for mentioning my wife Gaby it's a

258
00:18:16,690 --> 00:18:14,480
very good question we fly over most of

259
00:18:19,510 --> 00:18:16,700
the world and you don't see borders but

260
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:19,520
at the same time we realize that that

261
00:18:22,990 --> 00:18:21,050
people fight with each other and there's

262
00:18:25,710 --> 00:18:23,000
a lot of violence in this world and its

263
00:18:27,850 --> 00:18:25,720
really an unfortunate thing usually

264
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:27,860
people fight over many different things

265
00:18:32,050 --> 00:18:29,450
as we've seen in the Middle East right

266
00:18:34,900 --> 00:18:32,060
now it's somewhat for

267
00:18:37,750 --> 00:18:34,910
democracy in certain areas but usually

268
00:18:41,730 --> 00:18:37,760
people fight for resources and it's

269
00:18:46,060 --> 00:18:41,740
interesting in space you know on earth

270
00:18:48,670 --> 00:18:46,070
often people fight for energy in space

271
00:18:50,770 --> 00:18:48,680
we use solar power and we have fuel

272
00:18:55,120 --> 00:18:50,780
cells on the space shuttle but it's it

273
00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:55,130
on the space station it's you know the

274
00:18:59,620 --> 00:18:57,890
science and the technology that we put

275
00:19:02,080 --> 00:18:59,630
into the space station to develop a

276
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:02,090
solar power capability gives us pretty

277
00:19:07,330 --> 00:19:04,730
much unlimited amount of energy and if

278
00:19:10,450 --> 00:19:07,340
those technologies could be adapted more

279
00:19:14,260 --> 00:19:10,460
on earth we could possibly reduce some

280
00:19:16,090 --> 00:19:14,270
of that violence the second question one

281
00:19:19,120 --> 00:19:16,100
of the teams you have returned to in my

282
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:19,130
discourses concerns the responsibility

283
00:19:25,060 --> 00:19:21,530
we all have to us a future of our planet

284
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:25,070
i recalls a serious risks facings

285
00:19:30,700 --> 00:19:27,410
environment and survival of future

286
00:19:33,250 --> 00:19:30,710
generations scientists tell us have to

287
00:19:35,470 --> 00:19:33,260
be careful and from an ethical point of

288
00:19:38,950 --> 00:19:35,480
view we must develop our conscience as

289
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:38,960
well from your excellent observation

290
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:41,450
point how do you see situation on earth

291
00:19:47,770 --> 00:19:44,690
to NC science of phenomena to which we

292
00:19:49,690 --> 00:19:47,780
need to be more attentive well your

293
00:19:50,830 --> 00:19:49,700
holiness it's it's a great honor to

294
00:19:53,140 --> 00:19:50,840
speak with you and you're right it

295
00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:53,150
really is an extraordinary vantage point

296
00:19:58,210 --> 00:19:55,850
we have up here on the one hand we could

297
00:20:00,070 --> 00:19:58,220
see how indescribably beautiful the

298
00:20:02,590 --> 00:20:00,080
planet that we have been given is but on

299
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:02,600
the other hand we can really clearly see

300
00:20:07,780 --> 00:20:05,690
how fragile it is just the atmosphere

301
00:20:10,360 --> 00:20:07,790
for instance the atmosphere when viewed

302
00:20:12,940 --> 00:20:10,370
from space is paper-thin and to think

303
00:20:15,460 --> 00:20:12,950
that this paper thin layer is all that

304
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:15,470
separates every living thing from the

305
00:20:19,930 --> 00:20:17,210
vacuum of space and all that protects us

306
00:20:21,970 --> 00:20:19,940
is really a sobering thought and you

307
00:20:24,430 --> 00:20:21,980
know it's it seems to us that it's it's

308
00:20:26,590 --> 00:20:24,440
just incredible to to view the earth

309
00:20:28,630 --> 00:20:26,600
hanging in the blackness of space and to

310
00:20:30,700 --> 00:20:28,640
think that you know we are all on this

311
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:30,710
together riding through this beautiful

312
00:20:35,110 --> 00:20:32,450
fragile oasis through the universe and

313
00:20:36,910 --> 00:20:35,120
it really fills us with a lot of hope to

314
00:20:38,740 --> 00:20:36,920
think that you know all of us on board

315
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:38,750
this incredible orbiting space station

316
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:41,090
that was built by the many nations of

317
00:20:45,130 --> 00:20:43,250
our international partnership you know

318
00:20:45,940 --> 00:20:45,140
to accomplish this tremendous feat in

319
00:20:48,820 --> 00:20:45,950
orbit

320
00:20:51,340 --> 00:20:48,830
I think you know that just shows that by

321
00:20:52,509 --> 00:20:51,350
working together and by cooperating you

322
00:20:54,279 --> 00:20:52,519
know we could overcome many of the

323
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:54,289
problems that face our planet we can

324
00:20:58,180 --> 00:20:56,570
solve many of the challenges that face

325
00:20:59,500 --> 00:20:58,190
the inhabitants of our planet it really

326
00:21:01,659 --> 00:20:59,510
is a wonderful place to live and work

327
00:21:06,100 --> 00:21:01,669
and it's a wonderful place to view our

328
00:21:08,289 --> 00:21:06,110
beautiful earth the third question the

329
00:21:11,110 --> 00:21:08,299
experience you are having right now is

330
00:21:13,629 --> 00:21:11,120
both extraordinary and very important

331
00:21:17,019 --> 00:21:13,639
even if you must come back down to earth

332
00:21:19,090 --> 00:21:17,029
like all the rest of us when you do

333
00:21:21,430 --> 00:21:19,100
return you will be much admired and

334
00:21:24,340 --> 00:21:21,440
treated like heroes whose peak and

335
00:21:26,980 --> 00:21:24,350
activist authority you will be asking to

336
00:21:29,379 --> 00:21:26,990
talk about their experiences what will

337
00:21:31,330 --> 00:21:29,389
be the most important messages you would

338
00:21:33,789 --> 00:21:31,340
like to convey to young people

339
00:21:36,779 --> 00:21:33,799
especially who live in a world strongly

340
00:21:40,570 --> 00:21:36,789
influenced by your experiences and

341
00:21:44,230 --> 00:21:40,580
discoveries your holiness as my

342
00:21:46,120 --> 00:21:44,240
colleagues have vindicated we can look

343
00:21:48,279 --> 00:21:46,130
down and see our beautiful planet earth

344
00:21:50,049 --> 00:21:48,289
that God has made and it is the most

345
00:21:53,590 --> 00:21:50,059
beautiful planet in the whole solar

346
00:21:55,360 --> 00:21:53,600
system however if we look up we can see

347
00:21:57,460 --> 00:21:55,370
the rest of the universe and the rest of

348
00:21:59,830 --> 00:21:57,470
the universe is out there for us to go

349
00:22:02,440 --> 00:21:59,840
explore and the International Space

350
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:02,450
Station is just one symbol one example

351
00:22:07,779 --> 00:22:04,610
of what human beings can do when we work

352
00:22:10,360 --> 00:22:07,789
together constructively so our message I

353
00:22:12,399 --> 00:22:10,370
think one of our many messages but I

354
00:22:15,399 --> 00:22:12,409
think one of our most important messages

355
00:22:17,289 --> 00:22:15,409
is to let the children of the planet

356
00:22:19,360 --> 00:22:17,299
know the young people know that there's

357
00:22:21,370 --> 00:22:19,370
a whole universe for us to go explore

358
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:21,380
and when we do it together there's

359
00:22:26,710 --> 00:22:23,210
nothing that we cannot accomplish our

360
00:22:29,710 --> 00:22:26,720
first question space exploration is a

361
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:29,720
fascinating scientific adventure I know

362
00:22:34,060 --> 00:22:31,490
that you have been installing your

363
00:22:36,669 --> 00:22:34,070
treatment to further scientific research

364
00:22:39,669 --> 00:22:36,679
and the study of radiation coming from

365
00:22:41,460 --> 00:22:39,679
outer space but i think it is also an

366
00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:41,470
adventure of the human spirit of

367
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:43,970
powerful stimulus to reflect on the

368
00:22:49,779 --> 00:22:46,610
origins and on suggesting of sooner

369
00:22:52,629 --> 00:22:49,789
