00:01:49,350 --> 00:01:47,119 one of the things we had to do was 44 00:01:53,030 --> 00:01:49,360 actually make space for them we had to 45 00:01:56,310 --> 00:01:53,040 move our our soyuz which was docked uh 46 00:01:58,149 --> 00:01:56,320 to the mrm port we moved to a different 47 00:01:59,749 --> 00:01:58,159 port so that the new crew could get 48 00:02:01,910 --> 00:01:59,759 there so that was the first modification 49 00:02:04,469 --> 00:02:01,920 we had to make and then also we had to 50 00:02:05,590 --> 00:02:04,479 adjust for emergency procedure 51 00:02:08,070 --> 00:02:05,600 all our 52 00:02:09,589 --> 00:02:08,080 procedures are trained and worked out 53 00:02:12,309 --> 00:02:09,599 for a crew of six 54 00:02:14,309 --> 00:02:12,319 now we are nine and so we had to come up 55 00:02:17,030 --> 00:02:14,319 with a way to respond in case something 56 00:02:19,270 --> 00:02:17,040 happens and the last last modification 57 00:02:22,070 --> 00:02:19,280 but probably the most important for 58 00:02:24,150 --> 00:02:22,080 everyday life was find a space for for 59 00:02:26,630 --> 00:02:24,160 the crew to sleep so 60 00:02:28,390 --> 00:02:26,640 in the end we decided that the old crew 61 00:02:30,309 --> 00:02:28,400 as seniority and would stay in the crew 62 00:02:32,550 --> 00:02:30,319 quarters that we had before 63 00:02:34,150 --> 00:02:32,560 and the new crew was 64 00:02:36,470 --> 00:02:34,160 kind enough to 65 00:02:38,150 --> 00:02:36,480 just pick one of the modules they're all 66 00:02:40,790 --> 00:02:38,160 nice spacious and 67 00:02:44,229 --> 00:02:40,800 and and and cozy and they each picked 68 00:02:46,470 --> 00:02:44,239 one and that's where they're sleeping 69 00:02:47,990 --> 00:02:46,480 or bill harwood with cbs if you have a 70

to russia 76 00:03:03,110 --> 00:03:00,400 to show that torch up in space 77 00:03:05,509 --> 00:03:03,120 well um this is really 78 00:03:12,470 --> 00:03:05,519 a really interesting adventure 79 00:03:16,790 --> 00:03:13,750 and 80 00:03:20,149 --> 00:03:16,800 i'm honestly looking forward to this my 81 00:03:21,670 --> 00:03:20,159 first in a live space work 82 00:03:23,670 --> 00:03:21,680 we will 83 00:03:27,670 --> 00:03:23,680 perform uh 84 00:03:30,949 --> 00:03:27,680 usual the eva with some special tasks to 85 00:03:33,030 --> 00:03:30,959 make photos and video with olympic torch 86 00:03:34,869 --> 00:03:33,040 and this is uh 87 00:03:37,509 --> 00:03:34,879 some part of official 88 00:03:40,070 --> 00:03:37,519 olympic torch relay uh that is 89 00:03:41,910 --> 00:03:40,080 uh now in our country 90 00:03:45,190 --> 00:03:41,920 um 91 00:03:53,750 --> 00:03:45,200 that's all maybe alec will add something 92 00:03:58,390 --> 00:03:56,550 okay no problem um so 93 00:04:00,149 --> 00:03:58,400 if you were to be able to have a crew of 94 00:04:01,750 --> 00:04:00,159 nine up there regularly can you talk a 95 00:04:03,910 --> 00:04:01,760 little bit about 96 00:04:06,630 --> 00:04:03,920 how much more science could be done and 97 00:04:10,949 --> 00:04:06,640 also what facilities would need to be 98 00:04:15,429 --> 00:04:13,350 i think uh absolutely moving to nine 99 00:04:16,949 --> 00:04:15,439 people is doable um as far as the 100 00:04:18,390 --> 00:04:16,959 science and it would be fantastic you 101 00:04:20,550 --> 00:04:18,400 know for a long time we had three crew 102 00:04:22,870 --> 00:04:20,560 members here and when we moved to six 103 00:04:24,950 --> 00:04:22,880 that was a big jump um one of the things 104 00:04:27,909 --> 00:04:24,960 really to be concerned about though is 105 00:04:29,990 --> 00:04:27,919 um our environmental control system and 106 00:04:31,510 --> 00:04:30,000 co2 production of course will be 107 00:04:33,990 --> 00:04:31,520 increased and then our systems have to 108 00:04:36,469 --> 00:04:34,000 keep up with that and also the 109 00:04:38,390 --> 00:04:36,479 consumables and the supplies we need 110 00:04:40,390 --> 00:04:38,400 i think certainly making up the science 111 00:04:43,030 --> 00:04:40,400 for us to do 112 00:04:44,629 --> 00:04:43,040 would be very doable i think the harder 113 00:04:48,150 --> 00:04:44,639 part would be getting the systems to 114 00:04:53,590 --> 00:04:49,909 okay thank you all that will be all from 115 00:04:56,230 --> 00:04:55,030 station this is

00:15:33,440 to get bored and what 300 00:15:36,870 --> 00:15:35,199 the most beautiful view that you can 301 00:15:38,829 --> 00:15:36,880 think of 302 00:15:41,590 --> 00:15:38,839 so maybe if the day after 303 00:15:44,069 --> 00:15:41,600 tomorrow i should think about 304 00:15:46,389 --> 00:15:44,079 what i'm going to miss above all what 305 00:15:49,110 --> 00:15:46,399 i'm going to miss about everything 306 00:15:51,269 --> 00:15:49,120 is the idea of being here 307 00:15:52,389 --> 00:15:51,279 living weightless in this extraordinary 308 00:15:54,389 --> 00:15:52,399 world 309 00:15:56,550 --> 00:15:54,399 the view obviously 310 00:15:57,990 --> 00:15:56,560 what i'm able to see from the cupola is 311 00:16:00,310 --> 00:15:58,000 something that 312 00:16:02,150 --> 00:16:00,320 i think i will always bring with me but 313 00:16:04,870 --> 00:16:02,160 the physical sensation of being 314 00:16:15,749 --> 00:16:04,880 weightless is something that i think i 315 00:16:19,910 --> 00:16:17,430 i would like to come back to you to the 316 00:16:22,069 --> 00:16:19,920 second spacewalk 317 00:16:23,189 --> 00:16:22,079 the one that turned turned you into 318 00:16:26,310 --> 00:16:23,199 superman 319 00:16:28,790 --> 00:16:26,320 in the way that you faced the emergency 320 00:16:31,430 --> 00:16:28,800 so on the eve of your return how are you 321 00:16:34,870 --> 00:16:31,440 thinking about that experience and would 322 00:16:38,790 --> 00:16:36,470 first of all welcome aboard 323 00:16:41,910 --> 00:16:38,800 i will immediately answer to the final 324 00:16:47,110 --> 00:16:44,790 the desire to come back out started the 325 00:16:48,550 --> 00:16:47,120 moment we closed the hatch i would have 326 00:16:50,230 --> 00:16:48,560 wanted to take the water out of the 327 00:16:52,550 --> 00:16:50,240 helmet and go right back out to finish 328 00:16:55,990 --> 00:16:52,560 my work so for me 329 00:17:00,790 --> 00:16:58,230 point the only moment that is somewhat 330 00:17:03,189 --> 00:17:00,800 incomplete is the sensation that this 331 00:17:04,710 --> 00:17:03,199 feeling that i would like to be able to 332 00:17:07,270 --> 00:17:04,720 go back out and finish the work i 333 00:17:09,189 --> 00:17:07,280 started with chris 334 00:17:10,549 --> 00:17:09,199 what am i left with this experience i 335 00:17:12,309 --> 00:17:10,559 always say this 336 00:17:14,870 --> 00:17:12,319 when you consider an experience in its 337 00:17:17,350 --> 00:17:14,880 entirety any experience 338 00:17:19,429 --> 00:17:17,360 builds memories 339 00:17:21,909 --> 00:17:19,439 memories that are always almost always 340 00:17:22,870 --> 00:17:21,919 positive so for me that experience ended 341 00:17:25,990 --> 00:17:22,880 up well 342 00:17:28,230 --> 00:17:26,000 so it was resolved without any any 343 00:17:30,230 --> 00:17:28,240 following issues so the thing that will 344 00:17:34,390 --> 00:17:30,240 stay with me is another moment for my 345 00:17:36,710 --> 00:17:34,400 career as as a as an experimental pilot 346 00:17:39,430 --> 00:17:36,720 as a fighter pilot um times when i've 347 00:17:41,270 --> 00:17:39,440 had to solve problems right there in the 348 00:17:43,029 --> 00:17:41,280 moment which fortunately with a little 349 00:17:44,710 --> 00:17:43,039 bit of luck and training 350 00:17:45,669 --> 00:17:44,720

354 00:17:55,350 --> 00:17:52,480 so we were able to resolve the emergency 355 00:18:11,909 --> 00:17:55,360 well so i would be ready to go back out 356 00:18:15,750 --> 00:18:12,830 the 357

and that's how i'm 450 00:24:06,870 --> 00:24:04,799 spending my time now but um 451 00:24:09,830 --> 00:24:06,880 it's about four years since i was last 452 00:24:13,669 --> 00:24:09,840 here it's i feel like i've i'm back to 453 00:24:14,630 --> 00:24:13,679 my old workplace and i'm very keen to 454 00:24:16,710 --> 00:24:14,640 start 455 00:24:22,070 --> 00:24:16,720 the experiments i think i can go right 456 00:24:26,950 --> 00:24:25,750 from kyodo news and to dr wakato 457 00:24:28,950 --> 00:24:26,960 dr 458 00:24:31,669 --> 00:24:28,960 it's the first time that you go to 459 00:24:34,630 --> 00:24:31,679 you've gone to space and also the second 460 00:24:36,470 --> 00:24:34,640 time that you're staying at the iss have 461 00:24:39,350 --> 00:24:36,480 do you feel that something has changed 462 00:24:41,830 --> 00:24:39,360 something is different this time and 463 00:24:44,230 --> 00:24:41,840 next year you will become the commander 464 00:24:58,230 --> 00:24:44,240 so what is your motivation 465 00:25:02,789 --> 00:25:00,870 and at that time i was i mean the last 466 00:25:05,990 --> 00:25:02,799 phase of assembling kibo the 467 00:25:08,710 --> 00:25:06,000 experimental module and at the station 468 00:25:11,269 --> 00:25:08,720 there are several other new additional 469 00:25:14,390 --> 00:25:11,279 modules added especially the earth 470 00:25:16,549 --> 00:25:14,400 observation cupra and the 471 00:25:20,470 --> 00:25:16,559 module with a lot of windows has been 472 00:25:25,669 --> 00:25:20,480 installed and we can view the earth from 473 00:25:27,990 --> 00:25:25,679 the windows um and you can see the earth 474 00:25:29,750 --> 00:25:28,000 and i think that this view was not 475 00:25:32,230 --> 00:25:29,760 something that we can see in the past 476 00:25:33,590 --> 00:25:32,240 with the other modules so this is really 477 00:25:35,669 --> 00:25:33,600 impressive 478 00:25:37,830 --> 00:25:35,679 well about the megami commander

488 00:26:47,190 --> 00:26:45,350 is 489 00:26:49,750 --> 00:26:47,200 playing very important role in 490 00:26:52,789 --> 00:26:49,760 international space station and i really 491 00:26:55,029 --> 00:26:52,799 feel that when i am there and the 492 00:26:57,909 --> 00:26:55,039 assembly of uh 493 00:26:59,990 --> 00:26:57,919 was completed in 2009 494 00:27:02,070 --> 00:27:00,000 and it's been operating 495 00:27:04,549 --> 00:27:02,080 uh properly and there are a lot of 496 00:27:06,390 --> 00:27:04,559 results coming out from the 497 00:27:09,269 --> 00:27:06,400 japan experiment module 498 00:27:10,390 --> 00:27:09,279 so people from the world collaborate and 499 00:27:11,430 --> 00:27:10,400 expand 500 00:27:13,590 --> 00:27:11,440 the 501 00:27:15,590 --> 00:27:13,600 boundary of activity and japan is 502 00:27:17,269 --> 00:27:15,600 playing very important role there 503 00:27:20,549 --> 00:27:17,279 and i feel 504 00:27:23,590 --> 00:27:20,559 pride in taking part in there and would 505 00:27:26,070 --> 00:27:23,600 like to uh accomplish and the mission 506 00:27:29,029 --> 00:27:26,080 that i have to do 507 00:27:31,669 --> 00:27:29,039 i'm kaneko of nbs i'd like those that 508 00:27:35,269 --> 00:27:31,679 can talk about kata 509 00:27:37,510 --> 00:27:35,279 so you are now uh this time you had the 510 00:27:39,669 --> 00:27:37,520 flow flow through with the six hours 511 00:27:42,310 --> 00:27:39,679 very short flight so it must have been 512 00:27:44,149 --> 00:27:42,320 very busy for you so would you give us 513 00:27:47,350 --> 00:27:44,159 your impression about uh getting on the 514 00:27:50,789 --> 00:27:47,360 very fast track ride to iss 515 00:27:51,990 --> 00:27:50,799 well uh docking with only four 516 00:27:54,389 --> 00:27:52,000 rounds 517 00:27:56,549 --> 00:27:54,399 and tooling uh mr 518 00:27:59,750 --> 00:27:56,559 chilean and also rick must miss turkey 519 00:28:02,630 --> 00:27:59,760 they did a great work so with only four 520 00:28:05,110 --> 00:28:02,640 rounds on orbit 521 00:28:06,950 --> 00:28:05,120 everything went very smooth 522 00:28:07,750 --> 00:28:06,960 we were launched from kazakhstan and it 523 00:28:11,029 --> 00:28:07,760 was 524 00:28:13,990 --> 00:28:11,039 much quicker than flying to japan to 525 00:28:16,230 --> 00:28:14,000 reach to iss it was only six hours in 526 00:28:18,789 --> 00:28:16,240 very short period of time and we can go 527 00:28:21,830 --> 00:28:18,799 and come back to earth in very short 528 00:28:24,389 --> 00:28:21,840 time so russia have such a capability 529 00:28:27,110 --> 00:28:24,399 manned space capability and i feel very 530 00:28:30,789 --> 00:28:27,120 uh respect for the capability and the 531 00:28:31,990 --> 00:28:30,799 time was very short so uh adjustment to 532 00:28:33,909 --> 00:28:32,000 space 533 00:28:38,870 --> 00:28:33,919 is actually going 534 00:28:40,950 --> 00:28:39,669 uh 535 00:28:52,710 --> 00:28:40,960 sugar 536 00:28:57,350 --> 00:28:54,549 i'd like to ask specifically about the 537 00:28:58,870 --> 00:28:57,360 mission about the release of the small 538 00:28:59,590 --> 00:28:58,880 satellite 539 00:29:03,990 --> 00:28:59,600 and 540 00:29:05,750 --> 00:29:04,000 this small satellite 541 00:29:07,909 --> 00:29:05,760 also amongst the various satellites 542 00:29:09,830 --> 00:29:07,919 you'll be releasing do you have anything 543 00:29:20,630 --> 00:29:09,840 one that you think will be especially 544 00:29:26,230 --> 00:29:23,190 as for the release of the satellites um 545 00:29:28,789 --> 00:29:26,240 i think that various um developers 546 00:29:31,190 --> 00:29:28,799 researchers have worked hard to develop 547 00:29:33,750 --> 00:29:31,200 and produce css i want to work hard to 548 00:29:36,149 --> 00:29:33,760 release all of them now about the 549 00:29:36,950 --> 00:29:36,159 release of these small satellites um 550 00:29:39,909 --> 00:29:36,960 this 551 00:29:41,590 --> 00:29:39,919 is um because we have kibo and i think 552 00:29:44,950 --> 00:29:41,600 um that um this is the mission which 553 00:29:48,310 --> 00:29:44,960 will tap on the capability of kibble um 554 00:29:50,870 --> 00:29:48,320 there's the airlock um 555 00:29:53,909 --> 00:29:50,880 the human airlock and 556 00:29:55,669 --> 00:29:53,919 there will be the eva um 557 00:29:57,990 --> 00:29:55,679 russia and the united states you have 558 00:30:00,630 --> 00:29:58,000 the airlock for people to 559 00:30:02,710 --> 00:30:00,640 exit and enter but um 560 00:30:06,070 --> 00:30:02,720 it is only the gem which can release 561 00:30:09,269 --> 00:30:06,080 these satellites and devices and um 562 00:30:11,430 --> 00:30:09,279 we will be releasing from kibo and um i 563 00:30:13,430 --> 00:30:11,440 think that um this will be a mission 564 00:30:17,510 --> 00:30:13,440 which will be leveraging on the 565 00:30:20,830 --> 00:30:19,029 dr wakata 566 00:30:22,710 --> 00:30:20,840
