21
00:01:39,109 --> 00:01:35,680
sergey uh hear you talking thank you so

22
00:01:43,749 --> 00:01:41,510
hi sunny my name is andrea and my

23
00:01:47,910 --> 00:01:43,759
question is what's your biggest fear of

24
00:01:52,469 --> 00:01:50,710
hi andrea i think i know who you are

25
00:01:54,310 --> 00:01:52,479
it's good to hear your voice

26
00:01:55,990 --> 00:01:54,320
so what's my biggest fear about going

27
00:01:57,749 --> 00:01:56,000
into space wow

28
00:01:59,590 --> 00:01:57,759
that's a little bit of a hard question

29
00:02:01,749 --> 00:01:59,600
because i don't i don't think i'm that

30
00:02:04,069 --> 00:02:01,759
afraid about going into space it feels

31
00:02:05,910 --> 00:02:04,079
like a second home up here i've got

32
00:02:08,229 --> 00:02:05,920
great friends up here

33
00:02:09,270 --> 00:02:08,239
i miss my family and of course i miss my

34
00:02:12,229 --> 00:02:09,280
dog

35
00:02:13,910 --> 00:02:12,239
back at home but my i think my biggest

36
00:02:15,430 --> 00:02:13,920
fear is um

37
00:02:18,309 --> 00:02:15,440
probably when i left you never know if

38
00:02:19,990 --> 00:02:18,319
you might not see all those people again

39
00:02:21,430 --> 00:02:20,000
we probably will more than likely we're

40
00:02:23,350 --> 00:02:21,440
going to have a very successful mission

41
00:02:24,790 --> 00:02:23,360
and we come back to home in november and

42
00:02:27,750 --> 00:02:24,800
that's what i'm really looking forward

43
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,550
thank you

44
00:02:35,110 --> 00:02:33,430
hi sonny i'm berto and my question is

45
00:02:39,270 --> 00:02:35,120
what do constellations look like from

46
00:02:43,430 --> 00:02:41,589
so constellations they look uh sort of

47
00:02:44,710 --> 00:02:43,440
like what they look like from earth

48
00:02:46,790 --> 00:02:44,720
there's just a little bit of a

49
00:02:48,309 --> 00:02:46,800
difference and the reason i'm telling

50
00:02:50,550 --> 00:02:48,319
you this is because we're not much

51
00:02:53,030 --> 00:02:50,560
farther off of the surface of the planet

52
00:02:54,790 --> 00:02:53,040
than than where you are compared to

53
00:02:57,670 --> 00:02:54,800
where the stars are the stars are

54
00:03:01,589 --> 00:02:57,680
millions of miles away and we're only

55
00:03:03,190 --> 00:03:01,599
about 250 miles away from you and so

56
00:03:05,190 --> 00:03:03,200
this the constellations look pretty

57
00:03:08,070 --> 00:03:05,200
similar however there's no atmosphere

58
00:03:10,390 --> 00:03:08,080
there's no water vapor there's no water

59
00:03:12,949 --> 00:03:10,400
in the air between us and them

60
00:03:13,750 --> 00:03:12,959
and so the stars look crystal clear

61
00:03:15,350 --> 00:03:13,760
and

62
00:03:17,509 --> 00:03:15,360
actually it's a little more difficult to

63
00:03:19,990 --> 00:03:17,519
find constellations i think from space

64
00:03:21,509 --> 00:03:20,000
because there are so many stars out

65
00:03:23,670 --> 00:03:21,519
there and they are so clear so we

66
00:03:29,270 --> 00:03:23,680
actually see thousands and thousands of

67
00:03:37,589 --> 00:03:31,830
hi sunny my name is nico what is a

68
00:03:41,430 --> 00:03:38,869
so it's interesting you asked that

69
00:03:44,309 --> 00:03:41,440
question too there's barely a typical

70
00:03:46,070 --> 00:03:44,319
day but what start what is usual that

71
00:03:47,830 --> 00:03:46,080
happens is we get up somewhere around

72
00:03:50,070 --> 00:03:47,840
six o'clock and we go to bed somewhere

73
00:03:51,750 --> 00:03:50,080
around 10 o'clock i try to get eight

74
00:03:53,670 --> 00:03:51,760
hours of sleep up here which is

75
00:03:55,750 --> 00:03:53,680
sometimes a little difficult because we

76
00:03:57,670 --> 00:03:55,760
are orbiting the planet sixteen times a

77
00:04:00,550 --> 00:03:57,680
day so there's lots of sunrises and

78
00:04:01,910 --> 00:04:00,560
sunsets in one 24-hour period

79
00:04:03,670 --> 00:04:01,920
but sometimes we're getting ready for a

80
00:04:06,309 --> 00:04:03,680
space lock like what we're doing right

81
00:04:08,550 --> 00:04:06,319
now sometimes we're working on a robotic

82
00:04:10,789 --> 00:04:08,560
arm that's outside of the space station

83
00:04:12,630 --> 00:04:10,799
and moving parts and pieces around or

84
00:04:14,470 --> 00:04:12,640
actually catching a new spacecraft that

85
00:04:16,469 --> 00:04:14,480
comes up once we did the japanese

86
00:04:18,310 --> 00:04:16,479
vehicle the htv which is parked right up

87
00:04:20,229 --> 00:04:18,320
there sometimes we're working with a

88
00:04:22,310 --> 00:04:20,239
robot called robonaut which is right in

89
00:04:24,150 --> 00:04:22,320
front of me you might see

90
00:04:25,909 --> 00:04:24,160
doing some experiments on that sometimes

91
00:04:28,469 --> 00:04:25,919
we're doing experiments on ourself

92
00:04:31,030 --> 00:04:28,479
taking our own blood samples or working

93
00:04:32,950 --> 00:04:31,040
out on an exercise bike or a weight

94
00:04:35,030 --> 00:04:32,960
lifting machine that we have

95
00:04:37,670 --> 00:04:35,040
or doing any types of other experiments

96
00:04:39,990 --> 00:04:37,680
over here is a microgravity

97
00:04:43,430 --> 00:04:40,000
glovebox science glovebox which we do

98
00:04:45,990 --> 00:04:43,440
burning experiments in also also

99
00:04:49,430 --> 00:04:46,000
all sorts of experiments on materials

100
00:04:53,430 --> 00:04:49,440
so every day is different up in space

101
00:04:57,830 --> 00:04:55,990
hi sunny my name is sarah and i have a

102
00:05:03,029 --> 00:04:57,840
question for you did you dream of being

103
00:05:06,469 --> 00:05:04,790
you know i never knew any astronauts

104
00:05:08,710 --> 00:05:06,479
when i was a kid

105
00:05:10,230 --> 00:05:08,720
i of course knew when the guys were

106
00:05:11,830 --> 00:05:10,240
walking on the moon and i thought that

107
00:05:13,350 --> 00:05:11,840
would be really awesome and i really

108
00:05:14,870 --> 00:05:13,360
want to do that

109
00:05:16,550 --> 00:05:14,880
but you know i never grew up knowing

110
00:05:18,310 --> 00:05:16,560
anybody who had ever done it so i didn't

111
00:05:20,469 --> 00:05:18,320
really know what you had to do to be an

112
00:05:22,469 --> 00:05:20,479
astronaut so actually i wanted to be a

113
00:05:25,029 --> 00:05:22,479
veterinarian when i was a kid and

114
00:05:27,110 --> 00:05:25,039
actually through through high school

115
00:05:28,550 --> 00:05:27,120
and so i was looking to do that but then

116
00:05:30,310 --> 00:05:28,560
i got interested in going into the

117
00:05:32,629 --> 00:05:30,320
military and i started flying

118
00:05:34,790 --> 00:05:32,639
helicopters and that was the first time

119
00:05:36,629 --> 00:05:34,800
i got to know people who were astronauts

120
00:05:38,550 --> 00:05:36,639
so when i was a little kid

121
00:05:42,230 --> 00:05:38,560
no i didn't think i could do it and now

122
00:05:43,749 --> 00:05:42,240
as a as an older kid um i wish you guys

123
00:05:45,749 --> 00:05:43,759
would do it because it's a whole lot of

124
00:05:47,909 --> 00:05:45,759
fun and i had wish i had known somebody

125
00:05:51,189 --> 00:05:47,919
when i was your age who was an astronaut

126
00:05:54,310 --> 00:05:51,199
to tell me how much fun it is

127
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:58,469
hi sonny my name is annie

128
00:06:08,950 --> 00:06:04,390
can animals survive in space

129
00:06:10,629 --> 00:06:08,960
a that's a good question um there have

130
00:06:13,670 --> 00:06:10,639
been animals in space before you might

131
00:06:15,430 --> 00:06:13,680
have heard of uh leica belka and strauca

132
00:06:19,110 --> 00:06:15,440
those are russian dogs that went up to

133
00:06:21,110 --> 00:06:19,120
space before humans did we also launched

134
00:06:23,110 --> 00:06:21,120
chimpanzees into space in the early

135
00:06:24,950 --> 00:06:23,120
parts of the program here on the space

136
00:06:28,150 --> 00:06:24,960
station we've had mice and we've had

137
00:06:29,909 --> 00:06:28,160
spiders as a matter of fact but it is it

138
00:06:31,590 --> 00:06:29,919
is a little bit difficult

139
00:06:33,350 --> 00:06:31,600
to live in space of course you float

140
00:06:35,909 --> 00:06:33,360
around quite a bit you have to get used

141
00:06:38,070 --> 00:06:35,919
to floating and so our hands come in

142
00:06:40,390 --> 00:06:38,080
really handy because we can grab onto a

143
00:06:43,189 --> 00:06:40,400
handrail and stop ourselves

144
00:06:45,590 --> 00:06:43,199
animals would have to adapt uh to be

145
00:06:47,670 --> 00:06:45,600
able to do that and you know what's also

146
00:06:49,670 --> 00:06:47,680
difficult in space is

147
00:06:51,189 --> 00:06:49,680
going number one and number two so we'd

148
00:06:53,189 --> 00:06:51,199
have to figure out how to make sure the

149
00:06:55,430 --> 00:06:53,199
animals did that in a good way

150
00:06:57,670 --> 00:06:55,440
so in the meantime

151
00:06:59,830 --> 00:06:57,680
robonaut's holding my friend it's the

152
00:07:02,390 --> 00:06:59,840
imitation of my my dog it's a little

153
00:07:03,670 --> 00:07:02,400
stuffed dog little stuff gorby that way

154
00:07:09,350 --> 00:07:03,680
i don't have to worry about the number

155
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:13,749
thank you

156
00:07:18,550 --> 00:07:17,270
hi sunny my name is leo

157
00:07:24,230 --> 00:07:18,560
what can you

158
00:07:29,270 --> 00:07:26,309
hi sunny

159
00:07:33,990 --> 00:07:29,280
my name is leo what can you see from the

160
00:07:37,350 --> 00:07:35,749
well you know we have a couple really

161
00:07:39,110 --> 00:07:37,360
great windows

162
00:07:40,870 --> 00:07:39,120
some of them that look down toward the

163
00:07:43,270 --> 00:07:40,880
earth and a couple that look out toward

164
00:07:44,869 --> 00:07:43,280
the side and then we have a cupola which

165
00:07:47,189 --> 00:07:44,879
is right behind you and around the

166
00:07:49,270 --> 00:07:47,199
corner which actually has six windows

167
00:07:50,230 --> 00:07:49,280
around and then a one big window on the

168
00:07:53,189 --> 00:07:50,240
top

169
00:07:55,189 --> 00:07:53,199
and so we can really see all out toward

170
00:07:56,230 --> 00:07:55,199
our galaxy and then down toward our

171
00:07:58,950 --> 00:07:56,240
planet

172
00:08:00,790 --> 00:07:58,960
we know where we are usually by just one

173
00:08:02,869 --> 00:08:00,800
looking out the window or two we have a

174
00:08:04,469 --> 00:08:02,879
program called world map and it shows

175
00:08:06,790 --> 00:08:04,479
exactly where we are

176
00:08:08,869 --> 00:08:06,800
over the planet and so right now we're

177
00:08:10,629 --> 00:08:08,879
right off the coast the east coast on

178
00:08:13,029 --> 00:08:10,639
the atlantic ocean so if i went up to

179
00:08:13,909 --> 00:08:13,039
the cupola right now i would be able to

180
00:08:16,550 --> 00:08:13,919
see

181
00:08:18,790 --> 00:08:16,560
the atlantic ocean in about three hours

182
00:08:20,070 --> 00:08:18,800
we should be flying over the midwest of

183
00:08:22,469 --> 00:08:20,080
the united states and i'll be able to

184
00:08:24,629 --> 00:08:22,479
look down and see ohio i'll probably be

185
00:08:26,469 --> 00:08:24,639
able to see the great lakes some things

186
00:08:28,710 --> 00:08:26,479
that are really visible are bridges of

187
00:08:31,350 --> 00:08:28,720
course on a clear day i could see the

188
00:08:32,870 --> 00:08:31,360
statue of liberty and the pyramids but i

189
00:08:35,909 --> 00:08:32,880
have to really know where i'm looking

190
00:08:37,829 --> 00:08:35,919
because we're flying at 17 500 miles an

191
00:08:45,350 --> 00:08:37,839
hour and so we zip past those things

192
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,990
hi sonny my name is sam

193
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:57,829
my question is what is your mission

194
00:09:02,710 --> 00:09:00,870
so our mission we are the 32nd

195
00:09:04,310 --> 00:09:02,720
expedition to the international space

196
00:09:07,110 --> 00:09:04,320
station the international space station

197
00:09:09,509 --> 00:09:07,120
has been here in space about 12 years

198
00:09:11,750 --> 00:09:09,519
and our mission is really focused on

199
00:09:14,630 --> 00:09:11,760
doing science experiments

200
00:09:16,630 --> 00:09:14,640
we're also our mission also gets to do a

201
00:09:18,870 --> 00:09:16,640
space walk because we have one box

202
00:09:20,710 --> 00:09:18,880
that's outside a big electrical box

203
00:09:22,630 --> 00:09:20,720
probably about this big

204
00:09:25,110 --> 00:09:22,640
that's not working quite right right now

205
00:09:26,389 --> 00:09:25,120
so we're going to go outside and replace

206
00:09:28,790 --> 00:09:26,399
that box

207
00:09:30,949 --> 00:09:28,800
also during this spacewalk which is part

208
00:09:32,550 --> 00:09:30,959
of our mission right in the very front

209
00:09:34,310 --> 00:09:32,560
of the space station that's the very

210
00:09:36,790 --> 00:09:34,320
front right there

211
00:09:38,550 --> 00:09:36,800
it sometimes get hits by micrometeorites

212
00:09:40,630 --> 00:09:38,560
and so we're going to put a big cover on

213
00:09:42,470 --> 00:09:40,640
the front of the space station so those

214
00:09:44,710 --> 00:09:42,480
are some of the big goals that we're

215
00:09:48,070 --> 00:09:44,720
going to do during our spacewalk but

216
00:09:49,190 --> 00:09:48,080
overall during our four months of being

217
00:09:50,710 --> 00:09:49,200
up here

218
00:09:53,910 --> 00:09:50,720
most of the time we'll be doing science

219
00:09:56,470 --> 00:09:53,920
experiments to hope to help us

220
00:10:03,190 --> 00:09:56,480
create better spacecraft and potentially

221
00:10:07,430 --> 00:10:05,190
hi sunny my name is connor and i have a

222
00:10:12,550 --> 00:10:07,440
question for you what do astronauts do

223
00:10:28,470 --> 00:10:14,790
well can you imagine what we do for fun

224
00:10:36,470 --> 00:10:30,310
i wish i could do that sometimes we have

225
00:10:36,480 --> 00:11:00,949
there's a lot of things we do for fun

226
00:11:04,870 --> 00:11:02,949
so eating and eating and drinking is a

227
00:11:06,630 --> 00:11:04,880
lot of fun in space and floating and

228
00:11:08,870 --> 00:11:06,640
flying of course is a lot of fun in

229
00:11:10,790 --> 00:11:08,880
space but i think i know exactly what

230
00:11:11,829 --> 00:11:10,800
you mean other things too that we get to

231
00:11:13,990 --> 00:11:11,839
do

232
00:11:15,590 --> 00:11:14,000
we can use a phone so we have a phone

233
00:11:18,230 --> 00:11:15,600
call through the computer so we can talk

234
00:11:20,630 --> 00:11:18,240
to our family and friends sometimes we

235
00:11:22,470 --> 00:11:20,640
have tv shows that we can watch up here

236
00:11:24,710 --> 00:11:22,480
if we let you know if we're tired at

237
00:11:26,630 --> 00:11:24,720
night and just want to watch a tv show

238
00:11:28,870 --> 00:11:26,640
and even sometimes we have

239
00:11:30,630 --> 00:11:28,880
football and baseball which we're able

240
00:11:32,790 --> 00:11:30,640
to get up when the antennas are quite

241
00:11:34,470 --> 00:11:32,800
right and we can watch that so we have a

242
00:11:35,750 --> 00:11:34,480
little a couple things we can do for

243
00:11:41,509 --> 00:11:35,760
entertainment

244
00:11:49,910 --> 00:11:43,990
hi sunny my name is max and have you

245
00:11:53,750 --> 00:11:52,069
that's a great question and you know

246
00:11:56,230 --> 00:11:53,760
luckily enough

247
00:11:58,550 --> 00:11:56,240
none of us up here have gotten sick but

248
00:12:00,470 --> 00:11:58,560
we're ready for that we have all sorts

249
00:12:02,310 --> 00:12:00,480
of medical supplies and we actually go

250
00:12:04,710 --> 00:12:02,320
through a lot of training on the ground

251
00:12:07,190 --> 00:12:04,720
to make sure that we know how to

252
00:12:08,470 --> 00:12:07,200
fix help another person if they are sick

253
00:12:10,470 --> 00:12:08,480
in space

254
00:12:12,389 --> 00:12:10,480
we don't always have a doctor up here

255
00:12:13,269 --> 00:12:12,399
none of us on board right now of the six

256
00:12:14,949 --> 00:12:13,279
of us

257
00:12:17,190 --> 00:12:14,959
are doctors so we have to know how to be

258
00:12:19,269 --> 00:12:17,200
able to take care of ourselves and so we

259
00:12:21,670 --> 00:12:19,279
have everything from simple stuff like

260
00:12:22,949 --> 00:12:21,680
if you had a headache all the way to

261
00:12:24,470 --> 00:12:22,959
something if something happened and

262
00:12:26,150 --> 00:12:24,480
somebody got shocked

263
00:12:28,310 --> 00:12:26,160
we have all the equipment to take care

264
00:12:30,230 --> 00:12:28,320
of each other but luckily uh nothing

265
00:12:32,710 --> 00:12:30,240
like that has happened and we actually

266
00:12:34,949 --> 00:12:32,720
do physical tests like you know do a

267
00:12:36,710 --> 00:12:34,959
physical on each other um probably once

268
00:12:42,550 --> 00:12:36,720
a month to make sure we're all in good

269
00:12:46,710 --> 00:12:45,110
hi sunny and my name is ryan what is

270
00:12:50,949 --> 00:12:46,720
your favorite thing you get to do in

271
00:12:55,590 --> 00:12:53,190
probably my favorite thing to do is look

272
00:12:57,430 --> 00:12:55,600
out the window uh the other day i was up

273
00:12:59,110 --> 00:12:57,440
there and looking out the window in the

274
00:13:00,310 --> 00:12:59,120
daytime is wonderful it's awesome

275
00:13:02,629 --> 00:13:00,320
because you know you could look at the

276
00:13:04,470 --> 00:13:02,639
planet uh you can look out into space

277
00:13:06,230 --> 00:13:04,480
and that's really pretty but when you

278
00:13:08,870 --> 00:13:06,240
when it's nighttime is like when you see

279
00:13:11,750 --> 00:13:08,880
all those stars that i was talking about

280
00:13:14,470 --> 00:13:11,760
and it just feels like you're in an in

281
00:13:15,430 --> 00:13:14,480
another another place and it's beautiful

282
00:13:17,829 --> 00:13:15,440
and

283
00:13:21,190 --> 00:13:17,839
you can see all the city lights over the

284
00:13:23,190 --> 00:13:21,200
planet you can see where it's dark or

285
00:13:24,710 --> 00:13:23,200
where it's light over the planet

286
00:13:27,030 --> 00:13:24,720
one of the things that i thought about

287
00:13:29,190 --> 00:13:27,040
if i was ever to go to mars is i'd like

288
00:13:31,269 --> 00:13:29,200
to probably take a lap around mars when

289
00:13:32,629 --> 00:13:31,279
it was night time because there's places

290
00:13:34,629 --> 00:13:32,639
on this planet that i wouldn't have

291
00:13:37,190 --> 00:13:34,639
thought anybody lived but then at when

292
00:13:39,430 --> 00:13:37,200
we fly over at night the lights light it

293
00:13:41,350 --> 00:13:39,440
all up so there's people in these places

294
00:13:43,829 --> 00:13:41,360
which it doesn't look very hospitable at

295
00:13:45,509 --> 00:13:43,839
times and so i think uh to answer your

296
00:13:47,509 --> 00:13:45,519
question looking out the pla looking out

297
00:13:49,509 --> 00:13:47,519
the window is probably my favorite thing

298
00:13:51,350 --> 00:13:49,519
to do a close

299
00:13:57,350 --> 00:13:51,360
second would be flying around and having

300
00:14:01,509 --> 00:13:59,670
hi sunny my name is sophia and my

301
00:14:07,590 --> 00:14:01,519
question is when you are leaving earth

302
00:14:10,310 --> 00:14:08,870
pretty close

303
00:14:13,030 --> 00:14:10,320
i don't know how if you guys know it

304
00:14:15,269 --> 00:14:13,040
only takes about eight minutes uh when

305
00:14:16,790 --> 00:14:15,279
we're in the rockets that we fly i flew

306
00:14:19,350 --> 00:14:16,800
a space shuttle and this time i flew a

307
00:14:21,750 --> 00:14:19,360
soy on a soyuz rocket only takes about

308
00:14:23,750 --> 00:14:21,760
eight minutes to get to space and that's

309
00:14:25,509 --> 00:14:23,760
when the engines cut off and you stop

310
00:14:28,310 --> 00:14:25,519
accelerating and you're outside of the

311
00:14:30,949 --> 00:14:28,320
atmosphere and as soon as that happens

312
00:14:32,550 --> 00:14:30,959
your arms start to float up and now i'm

313
00:14:34,949 --> 00:14:32,560
used to it at least so much that

314
00:14:36,629 --> 00:14:34,959
unconsciously i hold them back down but

315
00:14:38,870 --> 00:14:36,639
if i don't think about it my arms start

316
00:14:40,310 --> 00:14:38,880
to come back up again so if you ever saw

317
00:14:41,990 --> 00:14:40,320
people who are sleeping up here you'd

318
00:14:44,310 --> 00:14:42,000
see their arms sort of floating because

319
00:14:46,710 --> 00:14:44,320
they they don't naturally fall down like

320
00:14:48,550 --> 00:14:46,720
they do on earth and so right after that

321
00:14:50,790 --> 00:14:48,560
eight minutes happens and the engines

322
00:14:52,230 --> 00:14:50,800
shut off you just start floating around

323
00:14:54,710 --> 00:14:52,240
and so you have to get used to holding

324
00:14:58,470 --> 00:14:54,720
yourself down

325
00:15:04,389 --> 00:14:59,750
hi

326
00:15:08,949 --> 00:15:04,399
sleep given the gravity air pressure in

327
00:15:13,509 --> 00:15:11,350
so sleeping is interesting

328
00:15:15,110 --> 00:15:13,519
we sleep in sleeping bags and i don't

329
00:15:17,509 --> 00:15:15,120
know if you could see right behind me

330
00:15:18,389 --> 00:15:17,519
here there's four sleep stations

331
00:15:20,230 --> 00:15:18,399
one on

332
00:15:21,670 --> 00:15:20,240
all the walls

333
00:15:23,269 --> 00:15:21,680
and you sleep in your sleeping bag and

334
00:15:24,870 --> 00:15:23,279
close the doors to your sleep station

335
00:15:27,269 --> 00:15:24,880
it's like a little room

336
00:15:31,509 --> 00:15:27,279
and what's nice about the little room is

337
00:15:32,949 --> 00:15:31,519
it's dark and it's pretty quiet and so

338
00:15:33,990 --> 00:15:32,959
you can get a pretty good night's sleep

339
00:15:35,990 --> 00:15:34,000
and you don't have to worry about all

340
00:15:37,590 --> 00:15:36,000
those sunrises and sunsets

341
00:15:39,189 --> 00:15:37,600
you know what you bring up a good point

342
00:15:40,710 --> 00:15:39,199
in the back of your head you know where

343
00:15:43,430 --> 00:15:40,720
you are we're in us we're in a

344
00:15:45,430 --> 00:15:43,440
spacecraft that's orbiting uh in space

345
00:15:47,910 --> 00:15:45,440
which is not very hospitable to human

346
00:15:49,430 --> 00:15:47,920
beings outside without a space suit on

347
00:15:50,949 --> 00:15:49,440
and so i think in the back of your head

348
00:15:52,949 --> 00:15:50,959
you know that it's a it's some place

349
00:15:54,870 --> 00:15:52,959
that you have to pay attention to

350
00:15:56,389 --> 00:15:54,880
um so if something happens in the middle

351
00:15:58,150 --> 00:15:56,399
of the night we all know that we're

352
00:15:59,910 --> 00:15:58,160
ready to get up and take care of any

353
00:16:01,590 --> 00:15:59,920
problems and so yeah there's a little

354
00:16:03,189 --> 00:16:01,600
bit that's that you think about but

355
00:16:05,910 --> 00:16:03,199
you're able to get a good night's sleep

356
00:16:07,749 --> 00:16:05,920
up here i think also because we we work

357
00:16:09,670 --> 00:16:07,759
like a normal work day and so then you

358
00:16:17,509 --> 00:16:09,680
sleep about eight hours a night so that

359
00:16:21,350 --> 00:16:19,990
hello sunny my name is baby and this is

360
00:16:23,350 --> 00:16:21,360
my question

361
00:16:29,910 --> 00:16:23,360
if all the astronauts speak different

362
00:16:33,749 --> 00:16:32,150
that's a really good question you guys

363
00:16:35,350 --> 00:16:33,759
obviously some of you know a little

364
00:16:37,189 --> 00:16:35,360
japanese some of you know a little

365
00:16:39,269 --> 00:16:37,199
russian and i think some of you know a

366
00:16:41,189 --> 00:16:39,279
little english about as much english as

367
00:16:42,069 --> 00:16:41,199
probably i know

368
00:16:45,670 --> 00:16:42,079
and so

369
00:16:48,870 --> 00:16:45,680
usually uh the conversation is a little

370
00:16:49,590 --> 00:16:48,880
bit russian and a little bit english

371
00:17:04,470 --> 00:16:49,600
the

372
00:17:07,110 --> 00:17:04,480
astronauts

373
00:17:08,630 --> 00:17:07,120
speak russian and english

374
00:17:10,549 --> 00:17:08,640
sometimes you don't know a word in the

375
00:17:12,949 --> 00:17:10,559
other language and so you say it in your

376
00:17:14,549 --> 00:17:12,959
language and maybe that other cosmonaut

377
00:17:16,230 --> 00:17:14,559
or astronaut knows it in their language

378
00:17:17,350 --> 00:17:16,240
and can help you so we do a little bit

379
00:17:20,710 --> 00:17:17,360
of

380
00:17:22,710 --> 00:17:20,720
wranglish for the most part up here and

381
00:17:25,510 --> 00:17:22,720
the flight control teams on the ground

382
00:17:29,190 --> 00:17:25,520
because we have a control team in russia

383
00:17:31,270 --> 00:17:29,200
in europe in japan and and actually in

384
00:17:33,110 --> 00:17:31,280
huntsville alabama as well as houston

385
00:17:35,430 --> 00:17:33,120
for the u.s side

386
00:17:36,789 --> 00:17:35,440
are all speaking their native languages

387
00:17:38,150 --> 00:17:36,799
and so when we're talking to them

388
00:17:45,430 --> 00:17:38,160
sometimes we have to speak in their

389
00:17:55,750 --> 00:17:48,230
hi sunny my name is michaela my question

390
00:18:00,710 --> 00:17:58,390
so the spacesuit is pretty big probably

391
00:18:01,750 --> 00:18:00,720
on the ground it weighs about 300 pounds

392
00:18:03,510 --> 00:18:01,760
or so

393
00:18:06,230 --> 00:18:03,520
it sort of looks what robonaut looks

394
00:18:08,390 --> 00:18:06,240
like right here it has a backpack and in

395
00:18:10,230 --> 00:18:08,400
our spacesuit backpack it all has all of

396
00:18:13,270 --> 00:18:10,240
our life support what i mean by that it

397
00:18:14,950 --> 00:18:13,280
has our oxygen in there and it has a way

398
00:18:16,789 --> 00:18:14,960
to get rid of the carbon dioxide

399
00:18:18,390 --> 00:18:16,799
remember on the ground here we have

400
00:18:20,789 --> 00:18:18,400
plants and trees that get rid of our

401
00:18:23,110 --> 00:18:20,799
carbon dioxide here inside of our

402
00:18:24,950 --> 00:18:23,120
backpack we have another piece of

403
00:18:28,789 --> 00:18:24,960
equipment that does that as well as the

404
00:18:30,549 --> 00:18:28,799
oxygen bottles it also has a cooling um

405
00:18:33,350 --> 00:18:30,559
system so that when we're working really

406
00:18:36,230 --> 00:18:33,360
hard it can pump cold water to our whole

407
00:18:37,590 --> 00:18:36,240
suit and keep us cooled down

408
00:18:39,669 --> 00:18:37,600
and that helps us because when we're

409
00:18:41,110 --> 00:18:39,679
working hard and it's hard to work in

410
00:18:43,110 --> 00:18:41,120
that suit because the suit is pretty

411
00:18:45,430 --> 00:18:43,120
stiff and so moving around in that suit

412
00:18:47,750 --> 00:18:45,440
is a little bit hard but just like

413
00:18:50,630 --> 00:18:47,760
inside space walking is a funny word

414
00:18:52,390 --> 00:18:50,640
it's actually not really walking

415
00:18:54,070 --> 00:18:52,400
there's handrails on the outside of the

416
00:18:56,630 --> 00:18:54,080
space station also and that's how we

417
00:18:59,510 --> 00:18:56,640
move from one place to another using our

418
00:19:01,510 --> 00:18:59,520
arms and so moving the big suit around

419
00:19:02,950 --> 00:19:01,520
the stiff suit is difficult and so that

420
00:19:05,909 --> 00:19:02,960
cooling system i talked about on the

421
00:19:07,990 --> 00:19:05,919
backpack really helps and luckily none

422
00:19:09,750 --> 00:19:08,000
of that feels like it weighs anything so

423
00:19:11,510 --> 00:19:09,760
we don't have to worry about carrying

424
00:19:13,590 --> 00:19:11,520
that it's just a little bit stiff it's

425
00:19:16,310 --> 00:19:13,600
sort of like a we're working inside of a

426
00:19:17,990 --> 00:19:16,320
balloon but it works out pretty nice and

427
00:19:19,510 --> 00:19:18,000
we're getting ready to we've tried them

428
00:19:23,029 --> 00:19:19,520
on and we're getting ready to go outside

429
00:19:28,310 --> 00:19:25,669
thank you

430
00:19:34,870 --> 00:19:28,320
hi sonny my name is ryan what

431
00:19:37,909 --> 00:19:35,830
wow

432
00:19:40,230 --> 00:19:37,919
a lot of experiments actually i was

433
00:19:42,549 --> 00:19:40,240
telling you about the microgravity

434
00:19:45,270 --> 00:19:42,559
science glovebox here we just got done

435
00:19:46,870 --> 00:19:45,280
with some burning experiments all sorts

436
00:19:49,110 --> 00:19:46,880
of different types of materials we had

437
00:19:51,110 --> 00:19:49,120
in there we were trying to catch on fire

438
00:19:52,710 --> 00:19:51,120
to see if they would burn in space

439
00:19:55,510 --> 00:19:52,720
things burn a little bit differently

440
00:19:58,630 --> 00:19:55,520
here gravity has an effect on fire

441
00:20:02,070 --> 00:19:58,640
um we're also working on other liquids

442
00:20:03,510 --> 00:20:02,080
to see how they sort of congeal in space

443
00:20:06,310 --> 00:20:03,520
in gravity remember everything is sort

444
00:20:07,830 --> 00:20:06,320
of pulled down and so liquids and other

445
00:20:10,310 --> 00:20:07,840
types of

446
00:20:11,510 --> 00:20:10,320
fluids do different things up here we're

447
00:20:13,830 --> 00:20:11,520
putting a new experiment in the

448
00:20:16,070 --> 00:20:13,840
microgravity glove box to watch that

449
00:20:18,789 --> 00:20:16,080
under the influence of some

450
00:20:20,710 --> 00:20:18,799
electrical currents we're doing another

451
00:20:23,110 --> 00:20:20,720
fluids experiments in the japanese

452
00:20:24,470 --> 00:20:23,120
laboratory just around the corner

453
00:20:26,870 --> 00:20:24,480
we're also doing experiments on

454
00:20:29,190 --> 00:20:26,880
ourselves we're trying to figure out

455
00:20:31,830 --> 00:20:29,200
what we eat if what we eat contributes

456
00:20:33,510 --> 00:20:31,840
contributes to bone loss and muscle loss

457
00:20:35,270 --> 00:20:33,520
that happens in space

458
00:20:37,110 --> 00:20:35,280
and with that we're doing exercise to

459
00:20:39,669 --> 00:20:37,120
see how much exercise we actually need

460
00:20:42,070 --> 00:20:39,679
to do to maintain our bone mass and our

461
00:20:44,230 --> 00:20:42,080
muscle bone mass and bone density and

462
00:20:46,149 --> 00:20:44,240
muscle mass up in space so there's all

463
00:20:47,909 --> 00:20:46,159
sorts of experiments robonauts and other

464
00:20:49,590 --> 00:20:47,919
experiments we have experiments on the

465
00:20:52,230 --> 00:20:49,600
outside of the space station that are

466
00:20:54,710 --> 00:20:52,240
detecting radiation for example and

467
00:21:00,630 --> 00:20:54,720
other particles from space so this whole

468
00:21:08,390 --> 00:21:04,070
thank you

469
00:21:09,909 --> 00:21:08,400
this time with us at wycliffe we are so

470
00:21:11,430 --> 00:21:09,919
appreciative and thank you for all that

471
00:21:14,950 --> 00:21:11,440
we've learned and all you're doing for

472
00:21:18,630 --> 00:21:16,390
well thank you very much and thank you

473
00:21:21,110 --> 00:21:18,640
very much for the invitation i know uh a

certain gentleman eddie and lady bev

475
00:21:24,310 --> 00:21:23,039
were a big part of this so please tell

476
00:21:26,710 --> 00:21:24,320
them thank you

477
00:21:29,590 --> 00:21:26,720
and um to everybody in the community

478

there in ohio i appreciate it it's where

479
00:21:48,230 --> 00:21:32,400
i was born and my mom is from so thank
