delivering 26 00:01:41,030 --> 00:01:38,720 102 tons of thrust from its four 27 00:01:43,429 --> 00:01:41,040 boosters and single engine the first 28 00:01:45,990 --> 00:01:43,439 stage of the soyuz measures 68 feet in 29 00:01:47,670 --> 00:01:46,000 length and 24 feet in diameter it is 30 00:02:03,109 --> 00:01:47,680 burning liquid fuel for the first two 31 00:02:03,119 --> 00:02:14,550 on board 32 00:02:18,309 --> 00:02:16,470 one minute ten seconds into the flight 33 00:02:32,550 --> 00:02:18,319 velocity is one thousand one hundred 34 00:02:36,550 --> 00:02:34,630 everything's fine on board 35 00:02:38,229 --> 00:02:36,560 one minute 30 seconds into the flight 36 00:02:43,830 --> 00:02:38,239 everything looking green the crew is 37 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:50,790 we heard alarms 38 00:02:50,800 --> 00:03:01,110 but everything is okay on board 39 00:03:05,589 --> 00:03:02,790 one minute 54 seconds into the flight 40 00:03:09,670 --> 00:03:05,599 the escape tower has been jettisoned 120 41 00:03:12,149 --> 00:03:10,710 everything 42 00:03:13,350 --> 00:03:12,159 four strap-on boosters have now been 43 00:03:14,949 --> 00:03:13,360 jettisoned these have completed their 44 00:03:17,030 --> 00:03:14,959 job and have dropped away at an altitude 45 00:03:43,430 --> 00:03:17,040 of 28 statute miles the soyuz is now 46 00:03:46,710 --> 00:03:45,190 two minutes 38 seconds the launch route 47 00:03:50,789 --> 00:03:46,720 has now been jettisoned the rocket's 48 00:03:54,149 --> 00:03:52,710 there's a view inside the hippopotamus 49 00:03:55,750 --> 00:03:54,159 they're up above the crew that is of 50 00:03:57,350 --> 00:03:55,760 guinea tarelkin there on the far right 51 00:03:59,110 --> 00:03:57,360 hand side oleg novitskiy who is the 52 00:04:00,789 --> 00:03:59,120 commander there at the bottom left-hand 53 00:04:04,550 --> 00:04:00,799 side just out of you as nasa astronaut 54 00:04:08,229 --> 00:04:06,470 remembers feel good three minutes three 55 00:04:10,949 --> 00:04:08,239 seconds into the flight the spacecraft 56 00:04:17,749 --> 00:04:10,959 now traveling at a speed of 4700 miles 57 00:04:21,590 --> 00:04:19,030 the core stage of the vehicle is 58 00:04:23,830 --> 00:04:21,600 performing as expected 59 00:04:25,510 --> 00:04:23,840 it is 56 feet in length 13 and a half 60 00:04:28,150 --> 00:04:25,520 feet in diameter it has a single engine 61 00:04:29,670 --> 00:04:28,160 with four fuel chambers providing 96 62 00:04:31,590 --> 00:04:29,680 tons of thrust for its three minutes and 63 00:04:33,189 --> 00:04:31,600 28 seconds of operation 64 00:04:36,710 --> 00:04:33,199 this stage will continue to burn until 65 00:04:38,629 --> 00:04:36,720 the four minute 43 second mark 66 00:04:40,230 --> 00:04:38,639 the soyuz uses what's called a hot stage 67 00:04:41,990 --> 00:04:40,240 technique coming up the third stage will 68 00:04:44,070 --> 00:04:42,000 ignite while the second stage is still 69 00:04:45,350 --> 00:04:44,080 burning this is why the soyuz has an 70 00:04:50,469 --> 00:04:45,360 open area in between the second and 71 00:04:55,670 --> 00:04:52,310 three minutes 45 seconds into the flight 72 00:05:03,909 --> 00:04:57,030 the crew and the ground teams reporting 73 00:05:03,919 --> 00:05:07,670 now crossing the four minute mark 74 00:05:12,230 --> 00:05:10,870 240 seconds all parameters are nominal 75 00:05:18,230 --> 00:05:12,240 whatever 76 00:05:21,029 --> 00:05:19,749 200 77 00:05:24,390 --> 00:05:21,039 50 seconds 78 00:05:33,189 --> 00:05:24,400 pitch your rotation nominal for members 79 00:05:33,199 --> 00:05:39,469 four minutes 30 seconds into the flight 80 00:05:44,870 --> 00:05:42,870 270 seconds control system parameters 81 00:05:55,909 --> 00:05:44,880 are nominal 82 00:06:00,790 --> 00:05:57,350 the third stage has ignited that the 83 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:05,110 everything's fine on board 84 00:06:09,510 --> 00:06:07,430 and we have second stage 85 00:06:11,270 --> 00:06:09,520 separation confirmed now five minutes 86 00:06:13,189 --> 00:06:11,280 and seven seconds into the flight 100 87 00:06:14,469 --> 00:06:13,199 seconds mission there's about four 88 00:06:16,309 --> 00:06:14,479 minutes of powered flight remaining the 89 00:06:18,230 --> 00:06:16,319 soyuz now being propelled by the single 90 00:06:20,629 --> 00:06:18,240 engine of its third stage this engine is 91 00:06:21,749 --> 00:06:20,639 providing 30 tons of thrust 92 00:06:28,590 --> 00:06:21,759 and will burn for a little more than 93 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:34,230 320 seconds all parameters are nominal 94 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:39,390 is fine on board 95 00:06:47,029 --> 00:06:42,070 330 seconds 96 00:06:51,510 --> 00:06:49,110 five minutes 45 seconds into the flight 97 00:06:53,909 --> 00:06:51,520 of novitskiy tarelkin and for the third 98 00:06:55,589 --> 00:06:53,919 stage is performing as expected as we 99 00:07:02,390 --> 00:06:55,599 look live inside the mission control 100 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:09,670 now crossing the six minute mark 101 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:13,029 360. 102 00:07:13,039 --> 00:07:28,110 it's your rotation nominal everything's 103 00:07:33,830 --> 00:07:30,629 380 seconds 104 00:07:35,510 --> 00:07:33,840 stage three thrusters are nominal 105 00:07:37,110 --> 00:07:35,520 six minutes and 30 seconds these 106 00:07:39,189 --> 00:07:37,120 performance calls continue from the team 107 00:07:40,790 --> 00:07:39,199 watching over the soyuz as it launches 108 00:07:42,230 --> 00:07:40,800 this crew into orbit 109 00:07:46,070 --> 00:07:42,240 everything is working as expected 110 00:07:49,270 --> 00:07:47,830 again that is 111 00:07:51,029 --> 00:07:49,280 evgeny tarelkin there on the far 112 00:07:52,230 --> 00:07:51,039 right-hand side oleg novitskiy there at 113 00:07:56,230 --> 00:07:52,240 the bottom left-hand side just out of 114 00:08:00,070 --> 00:07:58,150 the hippopotamus again that is uh there 115 00:08:02,230 --> 00:08:00,080 was given to the crew by navitsky's 116 00:08:04,869 --> 00:08:02,240 daughter 117 00:08:06,230 --> 00:08:04,879 that is the first test to find out once 118 00:08:09,909 --> 00:08:06,240 the crew has reached orbit whenever that 119 00:08:12,390 --> 00:08:10,830 20 120 00:08:37,269 --> 00:08:12,400 seconds 121 00:08:40,230 --> 00:08:37,279 the vehicle now traveling 13 500 miles 122 00:08:42,469 --> 00:08:40,240 per hour 150 seconds mission nominal 123 00:08:44,149 --> 00:08:42,479 everything is final board once the third 124 00:08:45,750 --> 00:08:44,159 stage delivers the soyuz to orbit and 125 00:08:47,590 --> 00:08:45,760 the module is separated a series of 126 00:08:49,190 --> 00:08:47,600 pre-programmed commands will be executed 127 00:08:50,550 --> 00:08:49,200 to prepare the soyuz for orbital 128 00:08:53,430 --> 00:08:50,560 operations 129 00:08:55,190 --> 00:08:53,440 these stored commands called time tagged 130 00:08:57,590 --> 00:08:55,200 command to allow many of the soyuz's 131 00:09:00,150 --> 00:08:57,600 systems to be automatically activated by 132 00:09:04,470 --> 00:09:00,160 onboard computers at precise times 133 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:12,389 under a minute to go 134 00:09:12,399 --> 00:09:31,990 everything's fine on board 135 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:43,670 same on board 136 00:09:49,670 --> 00:09:46,150 everything is nominal 137 00:09:49,680 --> 00:09:59,509 620 138 00:09:59,519 --> 00:10:05,030 inaudible 139 00:10:07,590 --> 00:10:06,150 we have third stage cut off and 140 00:10:09,190 --> 00:10:07,600 separation confirmed the single 141 00:10:10,550 --> 00:10:09,200 liquid-fueled engine has shut down and 142 00:10:13,509 --> 00:10:10,560 has dropped away at an altitude of about 143 00:10:14,790 --> 00:10:13,519 125 statute miles 144 00:10:16,230 --> 00:10:14,800 congratulations third stage is 145 00:10:17,670 --> 00:10:16,240 performing an avoidance maneuver by 146 00:10:18,870 --> 00:10:17,680
