1
00:00:19,910 --> 00:00:18,470
the main crew of the expedition to the

2
00:00:36,950 --> 00:00:19,920
iss

3
00:00:55,350 --> 00:00:39,110
so questions for you the very first one

4
00:00:55,360 --> 00:01:04,310
today is the international radio day

5
00:01:08,070 --> 00:01:07,190
so there should be no mistakes in

6
00:01:16,390 --> 00:01:08,080
calm

7
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:20,550
questions

8
00:01:26,469 --> 00:01:22,469
maxine could you say a few things about

9
00:01:31,350 --> 00:01:29,030
what do you feel and uh how is going to

10
00:01:33,670 --> 00:01:31,360
play out

11
00:01:36,630 --> 00:01:33,680
the career always trying to get an

12
00:01:38,230 --> 00:01:36,640
excellent grade it's our job

13
00:01:40,469 --> 00:01:38,240
it's the

14
00:01:43,270 --> 00:01:40,479
showcase of our abilities of our

15
00:01:47,429 --> 00:01:44,069
but

16
00:01:49,350 --> 00:01:47,439
everything happens sometimes we get good

17
00:01:52,230 --> 00:01:49,360
grades not excellent grades sometimes

18
00:01:54,230 --> 00:01:52,240
you have to redo the exam it's an exam

19
00:01:58,069 --> 00:01:54,240
it's a complex thing a very difficult

20
00:02:01,190 --> 00:01:58,079
thing but we're always ready to go in

21
00:02:02,630 --> 00:02:01,200
and perform what we're supposed to do

22
00:02:05,670 --> 00:02:02,640
and we do

23
00:02:09,589 --> 00:02:05,680
we are eager to get good grades with uh

24
00:02:12,550 --> 00:02:09,599
no comment we'll see in the evening

25
00:02:14,470 --> 00:02:12,560
for nasa tv for read wisely

26
00:02:16,309 --> 00:02:14,480
you're an experienced fighter planet

27
00:02:17,830 --> 00:02:16,319
pilot you've had thousands of hours of

28
00:02:19,190 --> 00:02:17,840
flight time on

29
00:02:21,589 --> 00:02:19,200
multiple different airplanes how would

30
00:02:23,110 --> 00:02:21,599
you compare your training now aboard the

31
00:02:26,790 --> 00:02:23,120
soyuz for what's going to be your very

32
00:02:31,589 --> 00:02:28,869
this is far more complicated overall

33
00:02:33,589 --> 00:02:31,599
it's it's two years of training to get

34
00:02:35,670 --> 00:02:33,599
to the end result of

35
00:02:38,309 --> 00:02:35,680
one launch for nine minutes

36
00:02:40,390 --> 00:02:38,319
and so when you really look at that each

37
00:02:42,710 --> 00:02:40,400
flight in a navy airplane is maybe a few

38
00:02:44,070 --> 00:02:42,720
hours uh but you do it routinely and

39
00:02:45,509 --> 00:02:44,080
this is just one shot and we have to

40
00:02:47,830 --> 00:02:45,519
know everything

41
00:02:51,430 --> 00:02:47,840
on our own basically with no help so

42
00:02:54,390 --> 00:02:51,440
it's two years well spent

43
00:02:57,030 --> 00:02:54,400
and for nasa and for alexander you could

44
00:02:58,869 --> 00:02:57,040
answer in both english and in pyramid

45
00:03:00,550 --> 00:02:58,879
how do you feel about taking your final

46
00:03:02,070 --> 00:03:00,560
exams for the soy for your very first

47
00:03:04,070 --> 00:03:02,080
soyuz flight

48
00:03:06,550 --> 00:03:04,080
well today is the last day of my

49
00:03:08,390 --> 00:03:06,560
training that lasted five and a half

50
00:03:10,070 --> 00:03:08,400
years so i don't think there's

51
00:03:15,750 --> 00:03:10,080
many more words that i need to describe

52
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:31,750
yeah what is the let's

53
00:03:35,270 --> 00:03:32,789
how

54
00:03:38,309 --> 00:03:35,280
fulfilled is going to be a work in orbit

55
00:03:44,309 --> 00:03:38,319
how many tasks you are going to have how

56
00:03:47,910 --> 00:03:46,229
it's going to be pretty intensive i'd

57
00:03:49,589 --> 00:03:47,920
say that each flight

58
00:03:52,710 --> 00:03:49,599
to the station

59
00:03:53,750 --> 00:03:52,720
is different from any other flight

60
00:03:55,910 --> 00:03:53,760
and

61
00:03:58,830 --> 00:03:55,920
events are different

62
00:04:00,630 --> 00:03:58,840
but we do have an extensive scientific

63
00:04:03,110 --> 00:04:00,640
activity we have

64
00:04:05,509 --> 00:04:03,120
three us spacewalks three russian space

65
00:04:08,149 --> 00:04:05,519
walks

66
00:04:11,350 --> 00:04:08,159
progress vehicles will be docking

67
00:04:13,110 --> 00:04:11,360
new us vehicles will be docking orbital

68
00:04:15,589 --> 00:04:13,120
and spacex

69
00:04:17,030 --> 00:04:15,599
we have the atv vehicle

70
00:04:21,670 --> 00:04:17,040
from europe

71
00:04:25,030 --> 00:04:23,350
is there anything new and something

72
00:04:26,830 --> 00:04:25,040
appealing to you

73
00:04:29,510 --> 00:04:26,840
among the experiments you're going to

74
00:04:30,870 --> 00:04:29,520
conduct as for the experiments i think

75
00:04:32,950 --> 00:04:30,880
the best one

76
00:04:35,189 --> 00:04:32,960
for me will be watching my two crew

77
00:04:37,110 --> 00:04:35,199
members when they get there

78
00:04:40,390 --> 00:04:37,120
into space this will be a really

79
00:04:42,870 --> 00:04:40,400
psychologist experiment the best one

80
00:04:49,510 --> 00:04:42,880
thank you very much

81
00:05:04,550 --> 00:04:51,430
like this

82
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:19,029
what about the non-traditional way

83
00:05:19,039 --> 00:05:49,990
uh

84
00:05:50,000 --> 00:06:05,590
okay

85
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:19,990
your camera

86
00:06:23,189 --> 00:06:22,150
need to talk about this probleated by

87
00:06:27,670 --> 00:06:23,199
color

88
00:07:11,270 --> 00:06:29,990
this will be great

89
00:07:14,830 --> 00:07:12,790
state board

90
00:07:18,150 --> 00:07:14,840
the main crew to the international space

91
00:07:24,710 --> 00:07:18,160
station is ready for the integrated

92
00:07:28,950 --> 00:07:27,510
he's got a lucky hand

93
00:08:11,270 --> 00:07:28,960
we'll take a look

94
00:08:15,110 --> 00:08:12,950
absolutely prepared absolutely prepared

95
00:08:16,230 --> 00:08:15,120
it's been a long uh but enjoyable two

96
00:08:18,629 --> 00:08:16,240
years for us

97
00:08:20,710 --> 00:08:18,639
and uh today and tomorrow uh really our

98
00:08:36,790 --> 00:08:20,720
final tests uh before we head down to

99
00:08:41,430 --> 00:08:39,750
uh we do have some some books that are

100
00:08:43,589 --> 00:08:41,440
that are already up there from previous

101
00:08:45,269 --> 00:08:43,599
crews that have launched uh but really i

102
00:08:46,870 --> 00:08:45,279
think the thing we're most likely

103
00:08:48,870 --> 00:08:46,880
alex and i are most looking forward to

104
00:08:50,070 --> 00:08:48,880
the camera and the view down to earth i

105
00:08:51,829 --> 00:08:50,080
think that's where we'll spend most of

106
00:08:52,790 --> 00:08:51,839
our free time

107
00:08:55,269 --> 00:08:52,800
yeah i have

108
00:08:57,750 --> 00:08:55,279
memory items from friends and family

109
00:09:11,990 --> 00:08:57,760
with me to give me an anchor to so i

110
00:09:15,269 --> 00:09:13,750
well this is my first flight i think the

111
00:09:17,269 --> 00:09:15,279
most difficult thing is going to be

112
00:09:19,829 --> 00:09:17,279
learning how to float and keep

113
00:09:21,910 --> 00:09:19,839
everything with you and not

114
00:09:23,990 --> 00:09:21,920
let not all of your tools and your spare

115
00:09:25,750 --> 00:09:24,000
parts kind of fly away from you i think

116
00:09:28,230 --> 00:09:25,760
max has given us a lot of good advice on

117
00:09:29,509 --> 00:09:28,240
that but we don't use our legs really so

118
00:09:33,430 --> 00:09:29,519
it's going to be a whole new world to

119
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:40,070
to blog

120
00:09:44,949 --> 00:09:42,550
i think my colleagues are going to

121
00:09:47,430 --> 00:09:44,959
twitter

122
00:09:50,070 --> 00:09:47,440
we'll see probably i'll be sending down

123
00:09:52,470 --> 00:09:50,080
some short messages

124
00:09:54,070 --> 00:09:52,480
of course

125
00:09:59,670 --> 00:09:54,080
uh they'll be here this weekend my

126
00:10:07,350 --> 00:10:01,430
oh of course yeah we'll spend the

127
00:10:09,750 --> 00:10:08,470
max

128
00:10:12,310 --> 00:10:09,760
each

129
00:10:14,630 --> 00:10:12,320
group of people has unofficial roles

130
00:10:16,230 --> 00:10:14,640
somebody is the mindful person somebody

131
00:10:18,389 --> 00:10:16,240
is a gesture

132
00:10:20,150 --> 00:10:18,399
how are those roles spread out

133
00:10:21,509 --> 00:10:20,160
within your career

134
00:10:27,350 --> 00:10:21,519
he's the leader

135
00:10:31,190 --> 00:10:29,110
official and unofficial

136
00:10:33,190 --> 00:10:31,200
it's difficult to say because situations

137
00:10:37,670 --> 00:10:33,200
are different

138
00:10:40,550 --> 00:10:37,680
in my opinion our crew is well balanced

139
00:10:42,230 --> 00:10:40,560
and uh chest as it is difficult to say

140
00:10:43,750 --> 00:10:42,240
what's more important in your body the

141
00:10:46,389 --> 00:10:43,760
head or the hands

142
00:10:47,670 --> 00:10:46,399
or the lungs or the legs i think in the

143
00:10:51,269 --> 00:10:47,680
same vein

144
00:10:53,910 --> 00:10:51,279
within our crew sometimes uh reed is the

145
00:10:56,949 --> 00:10:53,920
leader if he knows best if he

146
00:10:58,389 --> 00:10:56,959
has more experience sometimes it's alex

147
00:10:59,750 --> 00:10:58,399
who is the leader

148
00:11:02,870 --> 00:10:59,760
because

149
00:11:04,470 --> 00:11:02,880
he's got a worth of experience

150
00:11:05,590 --> 00:11:04,480
for example

151
00:11:21,670 --> 00:11:05,600
in

152
00:11:23,829 --> 00:11:21,680
our crew we don't really have a

153
00:11:26,310 --> 00:11:23,839
well-pronounced leader like say in the

154
00:11:29,430 --> 00:11:26,320
military i'm the leader so follow me so

155
00:11:31,509 --> 00:11:29,440
i think we're very flexible

156
00:11:33,910 --> 00:11:31,519
flexible

157
00:11:36,150 --> 00:11:33,920
or emotional somebody is a gesture

158
00:11:39,670 --> 00:11:36,160
somebody is the mindful a very

159
00:11:43,590 --> 00:11:41,350
something like this

160
00:11:45,910 --> 00:11:43,600
i don't really know i'd say that

161
00:11:48,150 --> 00:11:45,920
the cold-blooded the mindful person is

162
00:11:52,310 --> 00:11:48,160
alex and reid and i are just military

163
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,949
more questions

164
00:11:59,750 --> 00:11:58,069
is this upcoming flight is going to be

165
00:12:02,069 --> 00:11:59,760
markedly different from the other

166
00:12:04,069 --> 00:12:02,079
flights you know each flight is

167
00:12:06,310 --> 00:12:04,079
outstanding its own way

168
00:12:09,030 --> 00:12:06,320
because they're all test flights and

169
00:12:12,470 --> 00:12:09,040
nobody rule this out

170
00:12:16,310 --> 00:12:12,480
and second each flight brings about uh

171
00:12:18,870 --> 00:12:16,320
things which are unique and

172
00:12:20,870 --> 00:12:18,880
happen probably once in the entire space

173
00:12:23,269 --> 00:12:20,880
history we expect everything to be

174
00:12:26,389 --> 00:12:23,279
smooth to be nominal that everything

175
00:12:29,590 --> 00:12:26,399
will be operational that we won't have

176
00:12:31,030 --> 00:12:29,600
many of normal situations but no one can

177
00:12:33,750 --> 00:12:31,040
predict

178
00:12:34,870 --> 00:12:33,760
but our flight is uh pretty intensive

179
00:12:37,269 --> 00:12:34,880
and

180
00:12:39,190 --> 00:12:37,279
very well cut out

181
00:12:40,310 --> 00:12:39,200
and we have lots of experiments so it's

182
00:12:42,230 --> 00:12:40,320
probably

183
00:12:44,389 --> 00:12:42,240
of a high degree

184
00:12:47,190 --> 00:12:44,399
and besides we've got space walks we've

185
00:12:49,509 --> 00:12:47,200
got three u.s space works planned

186
00:12:50,829 --> 00:12:49,519
and the russian segment is going to have

187
00:12:52,389 --> 00:12:50,839
three space

188
00:12:54,790 --> 00:12:52,399
walks

189
00:12:56,470 --> 00:12:54,800
to outer space lots of equipment is

190
00:12:58,310 --> 00:12:56,480
going to come

191
00:13:02,069 --> 00:12:58,320
such as

192
00:13:05,030 --> 00:13:02,079
new us vehicles two new types

193
00:13:06,710 --> 00:13:05,040
the european vehicle russian cargo

194
00:13:14,629 --> 00:13:06,720
vehicles so it's going to be a very

195
00:13:19,350 --> 00:13:17,110
are you going to do something special

196
00:13:21,670 --> 00:13:19,360
some traditions

197
00:13:23,829 --> 00:13:21,680
uh just a read

198
00:13:26,550 --> 00:13:23,839
something in the web there are lots of

199
00:13:29,110 --> 00:13:26,560
stories about uh superstitions and

200
00:13:31,030 --> 00:13:29,120
traditions what about yours we follow

201
00:13:36,389 --> 00:13:31,040
the ones that have been set by our

202
00:13:36,399 --> 00:13:46,790
good luck

203
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:58,710
thank you very much

204
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:12,069
i was going to be over here

205
00:14:20,710 --> 00:14:13,350
main crew

206
00:14:24,310 --> 00:14:22,550
chair of the state board

207
00:14:25,110 --> 00:14:24,320
the backup crew

208
00:14:37,670 --> 00:14:25,120
is

209
00:15:10,829 --> 00:14:40,150
and you are well aware of

210
00:15:13,750 --> 00:15:12,870
oh we had

211
00:15:14,949 --> 00:15:13,760
five

212
00:15:18,069 --> 00:15:14,959
cards with

213
00:15:20,230 --> 00:15:18,079
exam situations we took out one we don't

214
00:15:23,590 --> 00:15:20,240
know what's in there it's a secret that

215
00:15:25,670 --> 00:15:23,600
is not reported to the crew

216
00:15:27,670 --> 00:15:25,680
are you expecting some difficult cases

217
00:15:29,189 --> 00:15:27,680
that you don't like

218
00:15:31,829 --> 00:15:29,199
no

219
00:15:33,910 --> 00:15:31,839
all of the situations that can occur

220
00:15:36,389 --> 00:15:33,920
during an integrated exam

221
00:15:49,509 --> 00:15:36,399
have been thoroughly worked through you

222
00:15:54,790 --> 00:15:52,150
what's the most difficult if you occur

223
00:15:57,829 --> 00:15:54,800
enough normal situation that is

224
00:16:00,310 --> 00:15:57,839
say on the brink of life and dead

225
00:16:04,310 --> 00:16:00,320
all of the cooperation items have been

226
00:16:07,430 --> 00:16:04,320
worked through and worked out properly

227
00:16:09,990 --> 00:16:07,440
our cooperation is great and unless

228
00:16:12,310 --> 00:16:10,000
something comes up because of the

229
00:16:14,550 --> 00:16:12,320
mock-up trainer

230
00:16:17,509 --> 00:16:14,560
then uh we'll look forward to our

231
00:16:19,749 --> 00:16:17,519
instructors because uh the train is just

232
00:16:21,430 --> 00:16:19,759
a machine that can fail

233
00:16:29,829 --> 00:16:21,440
but we'll be relying on our cooperation

234
00:16:35,110 --> 00:16:32,470
if this is indeed

235
00:16:38,470 --> 00:16:35,120
so complex how much time would you spend

236
00:16:41,749 --> 00:16:38,480
on studying all of those issues i cannot

237
00:16:42,949 --> 00:16:41,759
really say that some exam issues or

238
00:16:45,350 --> 00:16:42,959
questions

239
00:16:47,749 --> 00:16:45,360
are hard some are easy

240
00:16:49,670 --> 00:16:47,759
we started our training

241
00:16:51,990 --> 00:16:49,680
a year and a half ago so that's enough

242
00:16:54,710 --> 00:16:52,000
time to get ready for the flight

243
00:16:56,470 --> 00:16:54,720
do you know each other

244
00:16:57,509 --> 00:16:56,480
did you get a chance

245
00:17:00,870 --> 00:16:57,519
to

246
00:17:04,549 --> 00:17:02,870
in english know each other very well

247
00:17:07,429 --> 00:17:04,559
over the last two years

248
00:17:10,230 --> 00:17:07,439
uh we work together very often but we

249
00:17:12,870 --> 00:17:10,240
also do things outside of work together

250
00:17:14,309 --> 00:17:12,880
um and so i i joke with samantha all the

251
00:17:22,309 --> 00:17:14,319
time that now she has two younger

252
00:17:27,909 --> 00:17:24,949
uh well on sunday all day we spent

253
00:17:29,909 --> 00:17:27,919
together studying for this exam so

254
00:17:33,350 --> 00:17:29,919
that's a lot well we do other things too

255
00:17:36,390 --> 00:17:33,360
we go out to dinner um

256
00:17:39,029 --> 00:17:36,400
uh what else have we done

257
00:17:40,630 --> 00:17:39,039
very very yeah we we like to spend time

258
00:17:41,590 --> 00:17:40,640
together

259
00:17:47,909 --> 00:17:41,600
yes

260
00:17:52,230 --> 00:17:49,990
and the finalizing question

261
00:17:54,390 --> 00:17:52,240
anton you are now nearing your second

262
00:17:56,070 --> 00:17:54,400
space flight you have one space flight

263
00:17:58,310 --> 00:17:56,080
already behind you

264
00:17:59,590 --> 00:17:58,320
is there any difference between those

265
00:18:01,270 --> 00:17:59,600
two

266
00:18:05,110 --> 00:18:01,280
you have a different crew you're going

267
00:18:10,070 --> 00:18:08,549
well yes i was a backup remember two

268
00:18:11,350 --> 00:18:10,080
times but

269
00:18:14,150 --> 00:18:11,360
i'm still

270
00:18:15,990 --> 00:18:14,160
slightly nervous because uh this is a

271
00:18:16,950 --> 00:18:16,000
new crew and this is

272
00:18:20,390 --> 00:18:16,960
another

273
00:18:22,789 --> 00:18:20,400
step and i have like a younger brother

274
00:18:25,909 --> 00:18:22,799
say samantha who is flat engineer number

275
00:18:30,070 --> 00:18:29,029
so my main task is to prepare the

276
00:18:31,909 --> 00:18:30,080
vehicle

277
00:18:34,310 --> 00:18:31,919
and to

278
00:18:36,549 --> 00:18:34,320
follow the systems uh to monitor the

279
00:18:39,029 --> 00:18:36,559
operation of the system so we're going

280
00:18:49,029 --> 00:18:39,039
to help each other it's not that simple

281
00:18:54,950 --> 00:18:52,549
well the fact that you are going to be

282
00:18:57,350 --> 00:18:54,960
here you have males and females

283
00:18:59,590 --> 00:18:57,360
government to add a certain difficulty

284
00:19:03,029 --> 00:18:59,600
to a long duration space flight there is

285
00:19:19,110 --> 00:19:03,039
no division into female or male

286
00:19:22,950 --> 00:19:22,150
what about some female type behavior

287
00:19:25,110 --> 00:19:22,960
like

288
00:19:27,110 --> 00:19:25,120
can you wake up and say i don't want to

289
00:19:30,390 --> 00:19:27,120
do it now

290
00:19:32,549 --> 00:19:30,400
or i'm a bit cranky so i'm going to cry

291
00:19:34,549 --> 00:19:32,559
we're professional so

292
00:19:37,190 --> 00:19:34,559
we're not talking about any

293
00:19:39,350 --> 00:19:37,200
differentiation between males or females

294
00:19:41,590 --> 00:19:39,360
maybe at school when the

295
00:19:43,350 --> 00:19:41,600
kids are small but we are grown-ups and
