1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:21,510
foreign

2
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:35,510
on their readiness for the mission

3
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:56,709
sign it

4
00:00:56,719 --> 00:01:05,270
specifically

5
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:09,270
do you have any questions no

6
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:20,230
just a couple of words

7
00:01:23,429 --> 00:01:22,070
roman please could you answer a few

8
00:01:33,670 --> 00:01:23,439
questions

9
00:01:37,590 --> 00:01:35,270
during the expedition you're going to

10
00:01:39,030 --> 00:01:37,600
perform a spacewalk so what would be

11
00:01:42,069 --> 00:01:39,040
your goals

12
00:01:44,550 --> 00:01:42,079
well as usual

13
00:01:47,830 --> 00:01:44,560
all our space walks

14
00:01:50,389 --> 00:01:47,840
include working with science equipment

15
00:01:52,149 --> 00:01:50,399
mounting the equipment gathering samples

16
00:01:55,030 --> 00:01:52,159
from the

17
00:01:57,670 --> 00:01:55,040
outside outer shelf of the

18
00:02:00,310 --> 00:01:57,680
shell of the russian segment

19
00:02:02,069 --> 00:02:00,320
or are in our operations

20
00:02:05,510 --> 00:02:02,079
in my case

21
00:02:07,429 --> 00:02:05,520
i will be removing certain experiments

22
00:02:09,669 --> 00:02:07,439
that have been

23
00:02:15,270 --> 00:02:09,679
mounted outside this patient for a while

24
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:19,110
for now

25
00:02:23,589 --> 00:02:21,430
preparing for a six month flight i

26
00:02:25,830 --> 00:02:23,599
haven't thought about a 12 month flight

27
00:02:27,910 --> 00:02:25,840
yet for for chris hadfield for the

28
00:02:29,589 --> 00:02:27,920
canadian space agency and for nasa he

29
00:02:30,630 --> 00:02:29,599
could answer him for english and in

30
00:02:32,390 --> 00:02:30,640
french

31
00:02:34,070 --> 00:02:32,400
how does your training for your upcoming

32
00:02:35,830 --> 00:02:34,080
mission differ from your previous two

33
00:02:39,030 --> 00:02:35,840
missions

34
00:02:40,390 --> 00:02:39,040
difference in space station training is

35
00:02:42,949 --> 00:02:40,400
maybe the difference between a deep

36
00:02:45,030 --> 00:02:42,959
river and a shallow wide river

37
00:02:47,509 --> 00:02:45,040
when you train for a shuttle flight it's

38
00:02:49,830 --> 00:02:47,519
very specific and very narrow and and

39
00:02:51,589 --> 00:02:49,840
very deep and very channeled for one

40
00:02:53,830 --> 00:02:51,599
event when you train for a space station

41
00:02:56,470 --> 00:02:53,840
flight it is a long

42
00:02:57,990 --> 00:02:56,480
solo training flow for years and you

43
00:02:59,430 --> 00:02:58,000
learn so many things in so many

44
00:03:00,869 --> 00:02:59,440
different places

45
00:03:02,470 --> 00:03:00,879
both of them carry the same amount of

46
00:03:04,630 --> 00:03:02,480
water but it's quite a different

47
00:03:06,550 --> 00:03:04,640
training flow but it's also wonderful

48
00:03:15,110 --> 00:03:06,560
finally after all of that time to uh to

49
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:44,789
uh

50
00:03:44,799 --> 00:03:49,350
um

51
00:03:54,550 --> 00:03:50,390
first

52
00:03:58,070 --> 00:03:54,560
you're going to be for in space for so

53
00:03:59,429 --> 00:03:58,080
long is there anything

54
00:04:00,550 --> 00:03:59,439
what's the main challenge for you i mean

55
00:04:02,630 --> 00:04:00,560
what are you

56
00:04:04,630 --> 00:04:02,640
i can't say afraid of because i'm sure

57
00:04:07,190 --> 00:04:04,640
you're not but what's the main challenge

58
00:04:08,070 --> 00:04:07,200
for you in french and english uh after

59
00:04:09,509 --> 00:04:08,080
uh

60
00:04:11,350 --> 00:04:09,519
the years that we've been training

61
00:04:14,550 --> 00:04:11,360
together one of the main purposes of the

62
00:04:17,509 --> 00:04:14,560
training was to really understand all of

63
00:04:19,830 --> 00:04:17,519
the things that uh can go wrong so that

64
00:04:21,430 --> 00:04:19,840
it removes the fear where

65
00:04:22,790 --> 00:04:21,440
we understand what's going on we know

66
00:04:24,870 --> 00:04:22,800
what the risks are but we know what

67
00:04:27,270 --> 00:04:24,880
we're going to do and so it's not a big

68
00:04:29,270 --> 00:04:27,280
unknown so it makes it

69
00:04:30,550 --> 00:04:29,280
a confident thing rather than a fearful

70
00:04:32,710 --> 00:04:30,560
thing

71
00:04:35,270 --> 00:04:32,720
so i think really the

72
00:04:35,990 --> 00:04:35,280
the hardest part is uh

73
00:04:37,990 --> 00:04:36,000
well

74
00:04:39,110 --> 00:04:38,000
it's hard to say in advance i'm guessing

75
00:04:41,430 --> 00:04:39,120
but

76
00:04:42,870 --> 00:04:41,440
the hardest part will be remembering all

77
00:04:44,469 --> 00:04:42,880
of the things we were taught for the

78
00:04:46,070 --> 00:04:44,479
last four or five years trying to keep

79
00:04:48,310 --> 00:04:46,080
them in the front of our brain trying to

80
00:04:50,550 --> 00:04:48,320
make sure that whatever the instructor

81
00:04:53,189 --> 00:04:50,560
told me down on the boat in sevastopol

82
00:04:55,270 --> 00:04:53,199
uh four years ago on the black sea that

83
00:04:57,590 --> 00:04:55,280
i that i remember that now so i think

84
00:05:07,350 --> 00:04:57,600
just keeping it all fresh for so long is

85
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:46,230
yes this

86
00:05:49,670 --> 00:05:47,510
are you

87
00:05:57,510 --> 00:05:49,680
ready for the mission for the space

88
00:06:02,469 --> 00:05:59,830
we do not know what of nominal

89
00:06:05,029 --> 00:06:02,479
situations uh emergency training we're

90
00:06:06,950 --> 00:06:05,039
going to be taking our tests our

91
00:06:07,990 --> 00:06:06,960
examination again

92
00:06:10,870 --> 00:06:08,000
but

93
00:06:14,710 --> 00:06:10,880
we are prepared and we are hoping that

94
00:06:36,309 --> 00:06:18,469
so what language do you communicate in

95
00:06:40,550 --> 00:06:37,909
which one would you prefer english

96
00:06:41,990 --> 00:06:40,560
russian or french

97
00:06:44,790 --> 00:06:42,000
in english

98
00:06:47,029 --> 00:06:44,800
there are three major problems that can

99
00:06:50,070 --> 00:06:47,039
happen on a space station that are the

100
00:06:52,550 --> 00:06:50,080
most dangerous one is a leak where the

101
00:06:54,550 --> 00:06:52,560
air is coming out of the station two is

102
00:06:56,710 --> 00:06:54,560
being poisoned by the atmosphere with

103
00:06:58,309 --> 00:06:56,720
ammonia or some other chemical and the

104
00:06:59,510 --> 00:06:58,319
third is fire

105
00:07:01,589 --> 00:06:59,520
and

106
00:07:03,110 --> 00:07:01,599
there's no such thing as a small fire in

107
00:07:05,670 --> 00:07:03,120
a spaceship

108
00:07:07,990 --> 00:07:05,680
and so uh if there's a fire the smoke is

109
00:07:09,270 --> 00:07:08,000
what will kill us first and so we have

110
00:07:11,909 --> 00:07:09,280
to be very

111
00:07:13,589 --> 00:07:11,919
uh ready to respond there are sensors

112
00:07:15,270 --> 00:07:13,599
throughout the space station to warn us

113
00:07:17,350 --> 00:07:15,280
if there's a fire

114
00:07:19,670 --> 00:07:17,360
we have protective equipment with masks

115
00:07:22,550 --> 00:07:19,680
and fire extinguishers and if all else

116
00:07:24,550 --> 00:07:22,560
fails we can always get into our soyuz

117
00:07:26,950 --> 00:07:24,560
and close the hatch and and breathe in

118
00:07:29,510 --> 00:07:26,960
our pressure suits and be okay so it's a

119
00:07:31,430 --> 00:07:29,520
big problem it's a it's one of the worst

120
00:07:33,029 --> 00:07:31,440
things that can happen but we've been

121
00:07:35,029 --> 00:07:33,039
trained really well by the instructors

122
00:07:36,469 --> 00:07:35,039
here at star city and in houston

123
00:07:38,629 --> 00:07:36,479
and uh and we have the equipment

124
00:07:41,589 --> 00:07:38,639
necessary so uh we don't want to have a

125
00:07:43,510 --> 00:07:41,599
fire but if we have one we're ready

126
00:07:48,629 --> 00:07:43,520
thank

127
00:07:52,550 --> 00:07:50,469
for nasa tv this is going to be your

128
00:07:54,309 --> 00:07:52,560
first a long duration space flight what

129
00:07:56,150 --> 00:07:54,319
are you looking forward to the most uh

130
00:07:57,670 --> 00:07:56,160
for a long duration as compared to your

131
00:07:58,869 --> 00:07:57,680
previous mission

132
00:08:00,790 --> 00:07:58,879
space shuttle

133
00:08:02,710 --> 00:08:00,800
like a lot of first-time long-duration

134
00:08:04,950 --> 00:08:02,720
flyers i'm looking forward to actually

135
00:08:06,950 --> 00:08:04,960
living in space the shuttle flight was

136
00:08:08,469 --> 00:08:06,960
so busy i remember maybe about a

137
00:08:10,550 --> 00:08:08,479
45-minute period where i had a chance to

138
00:08:12,390 --> 00:08:10,560
look out the window and actually

139
00:08:14,070 --> 00:08:12,400
although the work is very enjoyable in

140
00:08:15,909 --> 00:08:14,080
zero gravity but actually enjoy the zero

141
00:08:17,270 --> 00:08:15,919
gravity so in a long duration flight

142
00:08:19,430 --> 00:08:17,280
looking forward to seeing how my body

143
00:08:21,990 --> 00:08:19,440
reacts after about a month hopefully

144
00:08:24,309 --> 00:08:22,000
perhaps it'll stabilize uh the kind of

145
00:08:25,830 --> 00:08:24,319
efficiencies we can build

146
00:08:27,589 --> 00:08:25,840
one of the most important things about

147
00:08:29,670 --> 00:08:27,599
us doing this long-duration flight now

148
00:08:30,710 --> 00:08:29,680
is how can we and the ground team get

149
00:08:32,070 --> 00:08:30,720
better

150
00:08:33,670 --> 00:08:32,080
at long-duration flight because that's

151
00:08:38,469 --> 00:08:33,680
key to exploration and i'm looking

152
00:08:44,310 --> 00:08:39,589
thank you

153
00:08:46,710 --> 00:08:45,750
is that about to

154
00:09:06,230 --> 00:08:46,720
let's

155
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:14,389
oh

156
00:09:14,399 --> 00:09:49,190
everything for right now looks good

157
00:09:55,430 --> 00:09:52,790
crew is reporting

158
00:10:07,110 --> 00:09:55,440
the commander of the

159
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:26,790
what date is it today 27th yes 27th

160
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:43,990
do you have any questions

161
00:10:51,829 --> 00:10:47,110
everybody's ready

162
00:10:56,470 --> 00:10:53,750
so what do you think

163
00:11:00,150 --> 00:10:56,480
about the level if you were readiness

164
00:11:03,910 --> 00:11:00,160
for the mission after the training

165
00:11:06,069 --> 00:11:03,920
well first the first day was nominal

166
00:11:08,310 --> 00:11:06,079
our

167
00:11:09,350 --> 00:11:08,320
grade is

168
00:11:26,949 --> 00:11:09,360
an eight

169
00:11:31,750 --> 00:11:29,430
difficult because we have to wear

170
00:11:33,190 --> 00:11:31,760
spacesuits and i think this exam is

171
00:11:36,790 --> 00:11:33,200
going to be

172
00:11:40,550 --> 00:11:38,949
any other questions

173
00:11:42,470 --> 00:11:40,560
first i'd like to know you're going to

174
00:11:43,910 --> 00:11:42,480
be at one point couple of months a

175
00:11:46,470 --> 00:11:43,920
commander of the international space

176
00:11:49,190 --> 00:11:46,480
station i'd like to know is this to sign

177
00:11:50,870 --> 00:11:49,200
some kind of nice title for years of

178
00:11:52,710 --> 00:11:50,880
good service or what kind of

179
00:11:54,069 --> 00:11:52,720
responsibility does it mean in french

180
00:11:56,230 --> 00:11:54,079
english and also would like you to

181
00:11:58,550 --> 00:11:56,240
answer your question about you answered

182
00:12:00,310 --> 00:11:58,560
yesterday about fire the risk of fire

183
00:12:01,590 --> 00:12:00,320
what does it mean can you tell us also

184
00:12:03,750 --> 00:12:01,600
in french

185
00:12:05,910 --> 00:12:03,760
give us the same answer

186
00:12:08,230 --> 00:12:05,920
it is a tremendous privilege

187
00:12:09,190 --> 00:12:08,240
to be part of this crew these are good

188
00:12:11,590 --> 00:12:09,200
people

189
00:12:13,430 --> 00:12:11,600
and we are going to go live in a place

190
00:12:14,710 --> 00:12:13,440
built by the world and we have great

191
00:12:16,629 --> 00:12:14,720
confidence in each other and great

192
00:12:18,949 --> 00:12:16,639
confidence in the space station

193
00:12:20,150 --> 00:12:18,959
and to be asked to uh

194
00:12:21,269 --> 00:12:20,160
rahman is the commander of this

195
00:12:23,430 --> 00:12:21,279
spaceship

196
00:12:24,629 --> 00:12:23,440
uh and i'm having a chance after a few

197
00:12:27,190 --> 00:12:24,639
months to command the international

198
00:12:29,190 --> 00:12:27,200
space station all three of us understand

199
00:12:30,069 --> 00:12:29,200
our responsibilities really well

200
00:12:32,150 --> 00:12:30,079
and

201
00:12:33,670 --> 00:12:32,160
hopefully the vehicles will behave well

202
00:12:36,150 --> 00:12:33,680
and our jobs will mostly be just

203
00:13:12,949 --> 00:12:36,160
day-to-day work but if things require

204
00:13:15,430 --> 00:13:14,150
better let other people have a chance

205
00:13:23,590 --> 00:13:15,440
too

206
00:13:28,710 --> 00:13:26,069
the final exams are to make sure

207
00:13:30,710 --> 00:13:28,720
everybody understands exactly uh how

208
00:13:33,269 --> 00:13:30,720
prepared we are we feel very prepared

209
00:13:34,629 --> 00:13:33,279
for them it's time to demonstrate that

210
00:13:36,230 --> 00:13:34,639
and so

211
00:13:37,990 --> 00:13:36,240
we're coming in with a lot of confidence

212
00:13:39,110 --> 00:13:38,000
for this

213
00:13:40,790 --> 00:13:39,120
so that's

214
00:13:42,790 --> 00:13:40,800
basically what we'll be doing it's it's

215
00:13:44,389 --> 00:13:42,800
obviously very important for the flight

216
00:13:45,990 --> 00:13:44,399
that we be able to demonstrate how well

217
00:13:49,030 --> 00:13:46,000
we work together what our goals and

218
00:13:51,189 --> 00:13:49,040
responsibilities are how our response to

219
00:13:55,670 --> 00:13:51,199
any uh off nominal situations is so

220
00:14:00,629 --> 00:13:57,110
question is what is real first for

221
00:14:02,550 --> 00:14:00,639
russia today television uh chris gilman

222
00:14:04,710 --> 00:14:02,560
you both play the guitar

223
00:14:06,710 --> 00:14:04,720
and um you know you're gonna be standing

224
00:14:07,750 --> 00:14:06,720
in the holiday season up there in the

225
00:14:09,350 --> 00:14:07,760
iss

226
00:14:11,590 --> 00:14:09,360
uh have you been rehearsing any

227
00:14:16,710 --> 00:14:11,600
christmas carols maybe or roma maybe you

228
00:14:19,590 --> 00:14:17,750
uh

229
00:14:21,269 --> 00:14:19,600
well all three of us are musicians in

230
00:14:22,470 --> 00:14:21,279
addition to being uh

231
00:14:23,910 --> 00:14:22,480
astronauts

232
00:14:25,189 --> 00:14:23,920
um

233
00:14:26,629 --> 00:14:25,199
and uh

234
00:14:28,069 --> 00:14:26,639
you know it's not the core of what we're

235
00:14:30,949 --> 00:14:28,079
doing in space

236
00:14:32,310 --> 00:14:30,959
but it's the art is is important and

237
00:14:34,550 --> 00:14:32,320
understanding

238
00:14:35,750 --> 00:14:34,560
the universe around us is best expressed

239
00:14:37,110 --> 00:14:35,760
through art

240
00:14:39,110 --> 00:14:37,120
and uh

241
00:14:41,350 --> 00:14:39,120
all three of us uh have played music

242
00:14:42,790 --> 00:14:41,360
most of our lives and so

243
00:14:44,790 --> 00:14:42,800
we're gonna do our job which is

244
00:14:47,189 --> 00:14:44,800
important but at the same time

245
00:14:49,030 --> 00:14:47,199
we'll be playing the musical instruments

246
00:14:51,430 --> 00:14:49,040
on board as a way to

247
00:14:53,829 --> 00:14:51,440
understand and express what's going on

248
00:14:57,189 --> 00:14:53,839
and when there's a holiday like

249
00:14:59,110 --> 00:14:57,199

each crew

283
00:19:23,430 --> 00:19:21,600
has the nominal operations and tasks and

284
00:19:25,830 --> 00:19:23,440
that's what we have

285
00:19:28,950 --> 00:19:25,840

wrote about the

288
00:19:40,710 --> 00:19:37,120
language that we use and it's ringlish

289
00:19:41,909 --> 00:19:40,720
a mixture of english and russian

290
00:19:43,590 --> 00:19:41,919
and

291
00:19:48,150 --> 00:19:43,600

who writes fiction novels about

293
00:19:56,070 --> 00:19:54,880
space travel to far away galaxies

294
00:19:57,669 --> 00:19:56,080
and

295
00:20:01,110 --> 00:19:57,679
people from

296
00:20:03,350 --> 00:20:01,120
all different civilizations

297
00:20:04,950 --> 00:20:03,360
of the world actually

298
00:20:09,190 --> 00:20:04,960
are part of that

299
00:20:10,870 --> 00:20:09,200
mission and so they speak all

300
00:20:15,430 --> 00:20:10,880
the languages

301
00:20:25,190 --> 00:20:18,789
please take turns and maybe you can ask

302
00:20:29,510 --> 00:20:28,070
is there anything new that uh appeared

303
00:20:30,950 --> 00:20:29,520
in your training

304
00:20:33,510 --> 00:20:30,960
of course it's

305
00:20:37,510 --> 00:20:33,520
each vehicle is different and there is

306
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:43,350
for example this all uses in use or use

307
00:20:48,549 --> 00:20:46,149
at the same time

308
00:20:50,549 --> 00:20:48,559
the level of responsibility stays the

309
00:20:55,270 --> 00:20:50,559
same

310
00:21:00,230 --> 00:20:57,590
