1 00:00:07,269 --> 00:00:05,190 that first umbilical separating 2 00:00:29,349 --> 00:00:07,279 indicating we're about 35 seconds away 3 00:00:32,709 --> 00:00:31,109 launch command has been issued that 4 00:00:36,630 --> 00:00:32,719 second umbilical we're tracking the 5 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:45,110 we have preliminary booster ignition 6 00:00:48,790 --> 00:00:46,549 and liftoff 7 00:00:51,270 --> 00:00:48,800 liftoff of reid wiseman max arrive and 8 00:00:52,790 --> 00:00:51,280 alexander gerst an international crew on 9 00:00:58,549 --> 00:00:52,800 their way to the international space 10 00:01:03,270 --> 00:01:00,069 right now getting good first stage 11 00:01:05,509 --> 00:01:03,280 performance the soyuz delivering 930 000 12 00:01:07,270 --> 00:01:05,519 pounds of thrust it's four boosters and 13 00:01:08,870 --> 00:01:07,280 single core engine 14 00:01:10,870 --> 00:01:08,880 the first stage of the soyuz measuring 15 00:01:12,789 --> 00:01:10,880 68 feet in length and 24 feet in 16 00:01:14,550 --> 00:01:12,799 diameter burning liquid fuel for the 17 00:01:36,550 --> 00:01:14,560 first two minutes and six seconds of the 18 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:49,670 corner 19 00:01:54,149 --> 00:01:51,830 now just about one minute 10 seconds 20 00:01:57,109 --> 00:01:54,159 into the flight of soyuz tma-13m 21 00:01:59,429 --> 00:01:57,119 velocity of the vehicle at 1 100 miles 22 00:02:01,830 --> 00:01:59,439 per hour 23 00:02:03,270 --> 00:02:01,840 all indications uh good for the rocket 24 00:02:15,589 --> 00:02:03,280 as it continues the first stage 25 00:02:19,910 --> 00:02:17,910 next major event will be the jettison of 26 00:02:29,750 --> 00:02:19,920 the escape tower at the very top of the 27 00:02:34,949 --> 00:02:33,509 and also be sure to watch for the 28 00:02:36,790 --> 00:02:34,959 boosters 29 00:02:45,509 --> 00:02:36,800 to break off indicating the end of the 30 00:02:48,710 --> 00:02:47,030 getting confirmation first stage 31 00:02:51,030 --> 00:02:48,720 separation you can see the four strap-on 32 00:02:52,790 --> 00:02:51,040 boosters now breaking away they have 33 00:02:55,110 --> 00:02:52,800 been jettisoned completing their job and 34 00:02:57,910 --> 00:02:55,120 they'll drop away at an altitude of 28 35 00:02:59,470 --> 00:02:57,920 statute miles soyuz craft itself now 36 00:03:25,509 --> 00:02:59,480 traveling at about 3 37 00:03:32,390 --> 00:03:27,190 getting indication the second stage 38 00:03:35,750 --> 00:03:33,990 and getting confirmation the launch 39 00:03:37,509 --> 00:03:35,760 shroud surrounding the soyuz craft has 40 00:03:45,430 --> 00:03:37,519 been jettisoned the rockets altitude now 41 00:03:49,190 --> 00:03:47,270 a little over three minutes into launch 42 00:03:50,949 --> 00:03:49,200 now the soyuz craft traveling at a speed 43 00:03:52,789 --> 00:03:50,959 of about four thousand seven hundred 44 00:03:54,470 --> 00:03:52,799 miles an hour 45 00:03:56,550 --> 00:03:54,480 three crew members giving the thumbs up 46 00:03:58,949 --> 00:03:56,560 inside the core stage performing as 47 00:04:01,589 --> 00:03:58,959 expected that core engine of the soyuz 48 00:04:03,750 --> 00:04:01,599 56 feet in length 13 and a half feet in 49 00:04:06,789 --> 00:04:03,760 diameter with a single engine and four 50 00:04:09,110 --> 00:04:06,799 fuel chambers providing between 178 51 00:04:11,429 --> 00:04:09,120 thousand and 222 thousand pounds of 52 00:04:13,270 --> 00:04:11,439 thrust depending on the altitude 53 00:04:15,429 --> 00:04:13,280 it'll fire for about the total of 3 54 00:04:16,949 --> 00:04:15,439 minutes and 28 seconds 55 00:04:20,150 --> 00:04:16,959 the stage is going to continue to burn 56 00:04:22,469 --> 00:04:20,160 until about the 4 minute 43 second mark 57 00:04:25,189 --> 00:04:22,479 soyuz uses what's called a hot staging 58 00:04:27,270 --> 00:04:25,199 technique so the third stage will ignite 59 00:04:29,270 --> 00:04:27,280 while the second stage is still burning 60 00:04:31,110 --> 00:04:29,280 that's why the soyuz has that small open 61 00:04:33,830 --> 00:04:31,120 area in between the second and third 62 00:04:37,990 --> 00:04:35,830 again continuing to get views inside the 63 00:04:41,189 --> 00:04:38,000 cabin again keep your eye on the giraffe 64 00:04:43,510 --> 00:04:41,199 of hanging in the top left corner 65 00:04:46,150 --> 00:04:43,520 the crew is always using a token 66 00:04:49,030 --> 00:04:46,160 to signify when the crew is in 67 00:04:57,110 --> 00:04:49,040 microgravity so you'll see that float 68 00:05:01,270 --> 00:04:58,950 continuing to get good reports all 69 00:05:17,189 --> 00:05:01,280 systems reported as nominal going as 70 00:05:38,710 --> 00:05:19,029 and pretty soon coming up on second 71 00:05:42,550 --> 00:05:40,390 and getting confirmation the second 72 00:05:44,710 --> 00:05:42,560 stage is shut down and separated the 73 00:05:48,150 --> 00:05:44,720 core booster separated an altitude of 74 00:05:50,790 --> 00:05:48,160 105 miles soyuz now being propelled by a 75 00:05:53,670 --> 00:05:50,800 single engine of the soyuz's third stage 76 00:05:55,590 --> 00:05:53,680 the engine providing 67 000 pounds of 77 00:06:21,990 --> 00:05:55,600 thrust it will burn for about four 78 00:06:54,950 --> 00:06:23,749 getting reports of third stage engine 79 00:06:59,029 --> 00:06:57,029 again continuing to get good indications 80 00:07:01,350 --> 00:06:59,039 from the vehicle as the third stage 81 00:07:02,950 --> 00:07:01,360 engine continues to fire 82 00:07:07,350 --> 00:07:02,960 it burns for four minutes and two 83 00:07:11,670 --> 00:07:09,670 so it has about two minutes and 20 84 00:07:30,710 --> 00:07:11,680 seconds or so left 85 00:07:34,230 --> 00:07:32,469 and you'll continue to get a view from 86 00:07:37,430 --> 00:07:34,240 here inside the russian flight control 87 00:07:39,670 --> 00:07:37,440 center uh now 88 00:07:41,270 --> 00:07:39,680 tied in to the rocket as the third stage 89 00:07:43,270 --> 00:07:41,280 continues to 90 00:08:11,189 --> 00:07:43,280 send the astronauts into its preliminary 91 00:08:15,990 --> 00:08:13,670 and now seven minutes 30 seconds since 92 00:08:18,070 --> 00:08:16,000 that launch from baikonur velocity of 93 00:08:23,029 --> 00:08:18,080 the vehicle now almost 13 94 00:08:27,510 --> 00:08:25,110 and once this third stage delivers the 95 00:08:28,950 --> 00:08:27,520 soyuz to orbit the module is separated 96 00:08:31,189 --> 00:08:28,960 again a series of pre-programmed 97 00:08:34,550 --> 00:08:31,199 commands will be executed in order to 98 00:08:36,230 --> 00:08:34,560 prepare the soyuz for orbital operations 99 00:08:38,230 --> 00:08:36,240 storage commands are known as time 100 00:08:40,310 --> 00:08:38,240 tagged commands they allow many of the 101 00:08:43,269 --> 00:08:40,320 soyuz systems to be automatically 102 00:08:45,590 --> 00:08:43,279 activated by onboard computers at very 103 00:08:47,509 --> 00:08:45,600 precise times that are already stored on 104 00:08:49,670 --> 00:08:47,519 board 105 00:08:52,230 --> 00:08:49,680 again all indications continuing the 106 00:08:54,470 --> 00:08:52,240 third stage continuing to 107 00:08:57,190 --> 00:08:54,480 perform as expected 108 00:09:13,910 --> 00:08:57,200 just about 30 seconds now expected until 109 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:41,910 in just about 15 seconds now 110 00:09:46,389 --> 00:09:43,990 and you saw that bit of a jolt for them 111 00:09:48,790 --> 00:09:46,399 as that third stage cut offs cuts off 112 00:09:50,550 --> 00:09:48,800 and separates the single liquid fueled 113 00:09:53,430 --> 00:09:50,560 engine shutting down and dropping away 114 00:09:54,630 --> 00:09:53,440 at an altitude of about 125 statute 115 00:09:56,389 --> 00:09:54,640 miles 116 00:09:58,230 --> 00:09:56,399 the third stage will perform an 117 00:10:00,230 --> 00:09:58,240 avoidance maneuver by opening a valve in 118 00:10:01,990 --> 00:10:00,240 its liquid oxygen tank 119 00:10:11,990 --> 00:10:02,000 but again 120 00:10:17,590 --> 00:10:14,870 and getting confirmation on all systems 121 00:10:19,590 --> 00:10:17,600 being deployed successfully confirmation 122 00:10:21,430 --> 00:10:19,600 of spacecraft separation 123 00:10:23,670 --> 00:10:21,440 the capsule the crew inside safely in 124 00:10:25,350 --> 00:10:23,680 orbit automatically executing the 125 00:10:28,230 --> 00:10:25,360 pre-programmed commands to deploy those 126 00:10:30,710 --> 00:10:28,240 antennas and solar arrays 127 00:10:35,269 --> 00:10:30,720 soyuz itself now orbiting at an altitude 128 00:10:37,750 --> 00:10:35,279 of about 143 miles by 118 miles that 129 00:10:39,910 --> 00:10:37,760 orbit will be raised systematically over 130 00:10:42,069 --> 00:10:39,920 the course of the next six hours as the
