1
00:00:00,799 --> 00:00:28,790
um

2
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:35,910
it's

3
00:01:05,750 --> 00:00:38,630
three is prepared for flight russian

4
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:24,149
um

5
00:01:24,159 --> 00:01:56,789
everything is clear that's good

6
00:02:01,270 --> 00:01:59,109
the simulator uh both for the russian

7
00:02:03,350 --> 00:02:01,280
segment and for the the soyuz are

8
00:02:05,670 --> 00:02:03,360
outstanding they can simulate many

9
00:02:07,510 --> 00:02:05,680
emergencies as we get them into zati

10
00:02:09,669 --> 00:02:07,520
and of course the smoke introduction and

11
00:02:11,830 --> 00:02:09,679
stuff makes them all very realistic and

12
00:02:13,830 --> 00:02:11,840
all the systems work almost exactly as

13
00:02:19,670 --> 00:02:13,840
in space how long have you been training

14
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:29,190
two and a half years

15
00:02:33,270 --> 00:02:30,790
do you feel that your team has prepared

16
00:02:34,630 --> 00:02:33,280
for flight absolutely

17
00:02:42,790 --> 00:02:34,640
this is your first flight are you

18
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:58,710
thank you everyone

19
00:03:06,229 --> 00:03:02,309
the results of the test determine

20
00:03:07,990 --> 00:03:06,239
a lot of things if for some reason

21
00:03:11,030 --> 00:03:08,000
there are concerns that's one thing but

22
00:03:13,350 --> 00:03:11,040
if the crew shows

23
00:03:15,990 --> 00:03:13,360
good work then that's good it is also

24
00:03:16,830 --> 00:03:16,000
possible to reschedule

25
00:03:18,790 --> 00:03:16,840
a

26
00:03:20,470 --> 00:03:18,800
retest

27
00:03:23,509 --> 00:03:20,480
how confident are you that the crew will

28
00:03:24,949 --> 00:03:23,519
succeed well i'm sure that they're good

29
00:03:26,550 --> 00:03:24,959
professionals i know they've been

30
00:03:31,589 --> 00:03:26,560
training for a long time and they've

31
00:03:36,309 --> 00:03:33,990
now if a backup crew is a little bit

32
00:03:37,910 --> 00:03:36,319
better that doesn't necessarily mean

33
00:04:06,869 --> 00:03:37,920
that they will be the ones that will

34
00:04:14,229 --> 00:04:11,350
expedition 3334 prime crew is prepared

35
00:04:35,590 --> 00:04:14,239
for flight commander

36
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:50,150
so you know the yesterday's results

37
00:04:53,030 --> 00:04:51,670
do you have any questions now no

38
00:05:11,110 --> 00:04:53,040
questions

39
00:05:15,670 --> 00:05:13,430
just one second for us to set up the

40
00:05:18,550 --> 00:05:15,680
camera if you don't mind the camera is

41
00:05:21,830 --> 00:05:18,560
ready the reporters are ready

42
00:05:23,590 --> 00:05:21,840
so go ahead please alex

43
00:05:25,909 --> 00:05:23,600
how was your

44
00:05:31,830 --> 00:05:29,350
training day as a prime crew yesterday

45
00:05:34,710 --> 00:05:31,840
and how are you feeling today

46
00:05:37,510 --> 00:05:34,720
the simulation was great yesterday we

47
00:05:39,990 --> 00:05:37,520
got an excellent review of our

48
00:05:59,749 --> 00:05:40,000
simulation we just made only one mistake

49
00:06:04,870 --> 00:06:01,990
of course not from the technical

50
00:06:09,990 --> 00:06:04,880
standpoint we are absolutely prepared to

51
00:06:11,189 --> 00:06:10,000
fly in space it's going to be all good

52
00:06:12,070 --> 00:06:11,199
i trust

53
00:06:16,070 --> 00:06:12,080
my

54
00:06:22,550 --> 00:06:20,070
that's it does it add any extra pressure

55
00:06:24,950 --> 00:06:22,560
the only one who's beyond space

56
00:06:27,350 --> 00:06:24,960
oh no it actually uh it doesn't add

57
00:06:29,270 --> 00:06:27,360
extra pressure it adds extra pleasure

58
00:06:30,790 --> 00:06:29,280
because uh because i get to see them

59
00:06:31,510 --> 00:06:30,800
come to cosmos for the first time with

60
00:06:33,909 --> 00:06:31,520
me

61
00:06:35,830 --> 00:06:33,919
and i can see by their training from

62
00:06:37,270 --> 00:06:35,840
what i when i flew before that they're

63
00:06:39,110 --> 00:06:37,280
very ready to go and they're going to

64
00:06:40,230 --> 00:06:39,120
very uh very much enjoy their time and

65
00:06:43,590 --> 00:06:40,240
space

66
00:06:48,710 --> 00:06:46,390
any more questions

67
00:06:50,790 --> 00:06:48,720
stephanie stole for nasa tv for kevin uh

68
00:06:52,469 --> 00:06:50,800
these qualification exams represent a

69
00:06:53,749 --> 00:06:52,479
milestone in the completion of your

70
00:06:55,510 --> 00:06:53,759
training um

71
00:06:56,870 --> 00:06:55,520
what is the significance of this phase

72
00:06:59,510 --> 00:06:56,880
of the training for you and your

73
00:07:01,430 --> 00:06:59,520
crewmates and the backup

74
00:07:03,110 --> 00:07:01,440
well as you know the training is very

75
00:07:05,430 --> 00:07:03,120
long path it's about a two and a half

76
00:07:07,990 --> 00:07:05,440
year path to get here uh we did this

77
00:07:11,110 --> 00:07:08,000
about five months ago as a backup crew

78
00:07:12,870 --> 00:07:11,120
so we had a little bit of uh chance to

79
00:07:14,870 --> 00:07:12,880
see what these qualifications would look

80
00:07:17,029 --> 00:07:14,880
like but officially this is our very

81
00:07:18,790 --> 00:07:17,039
last day of training for uh you have

82
00:07:20,469 --> 00:07:18,800
guinea and oleg and myself so it's a

83
00:07:31,589 --> 00:07:20,479
it's a big milestone for us it feels

84
00:07:35,110 --> 00:07:33,990
which simulation

85
00:07:36,950 --> 00:07:35,120
was more

86
00:07:38,230 --> 00:07:36,960
serious for you the soyuz one of the

87
00:07:40,150 --> 00:07:38,240
russian

88
00:07:42,870 --> 00:07:40,160
segment one well

89
00:07:45,990 --> 00:07:42,880
for soyuz it was a more dynamic

90
00:07:48,950 --> 00:07:46,000
operation training because we had a lot

91
00:07:52,230 --> 00:07:48,960
of nominal situations thrown at us

92
00:07:55,029 --> 00:07:52,240
for the russian segment training it's uh

93
00:08:22,469 --> 00:07:55,039
it takes longer but it's uh with fewer

94
00:08:55,350 --> 00:08:24,790
tell me when you're ready for me

95
00:08:55,360 --> 00:09:20,230
foreign

96
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:48,389
i am ready

97
00:09:48,399 --> 00:09:51,829
foreign

98
00:09:51,839 --> 00:10:16,630
just

99
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,670
is

100
00:10:19,680 --> 00:10:42,870
uh

101
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:51,670
okay

102
00:10:51,680 --> 00:11:04,310
so

103
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:15,509
foreign

104
00:11:15,519 --> 00:11:30,630
looking forward

105
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:54,470
is

106
00:12:00,550 --> 00:11:58,310
that our exam will show how prepared we

107
00:12:03,030 --> 00:12:00,560
are but at this time i would say that we

108
00:12:04,550 --> 00:12:03,040
are very prepared we don't have

109
00:12:07,190 --> 00:12:04,560
any questions

110
00:12:08,829 --> 00:12:07,200
we had a chance to ask all the questions

111
00:12:10,470 --> 00:12:08,839
that we had our

112
00:12:12,790 --> 00:12:10,480
instructors

113
00:12:14,870 --> 00:12:12,800
did a good job

114
00:12:22,829 --> 00:12:14,880
we are prepared for everything including

115
00:12:31,430 --> 00:12:28,790
flight this is a long standing tradition

116
00:12:33,750 --> 00:12:31,440
we always have international crews

117
00:12:35,350 --> 00:12:33,760
it doesn't

118
00:12:39,350 --> 00:12:35,360
make it difficult for us we're

119
00:12:41,509 --> 00:12:39,360
professionals and we're one team

120
00:12:43,430 --> 00:12:41,519
your other crew members did they come to

121
00:12:46,629 --> 00:12:43,440
you with questions and help asking for

122
00:12:48,790 --> 00:12:46,639
help well of course we train together

123
00:12:49,910 --> 00:12:48,800
so

124
00:12:52,629 --> 00:12:49,920
i

125
00:12:54,069 --> 00:12:52,639
try to help them along

126
00:12:55,990 --> 00:12:54,079
as i could i think

127
00:12:58,069 --> 00:12:56,000
it will be harder for those guys and

128
00:13:03,430 --> 00:12:58,079
they will be for us

129
00:13:07,829 --> 00:13:05,350
okay well we're not going to
