scientific program that 87 00:05:52,710 --> 00:05:51,520 will be performed by alex gerst and how 88 00:05:54,950 --> 00:05:52,720 important 89 00:05:58,950 --> 00:05:54,960 is that program for the european space 90 00:06:03,590 --> 00:06:01,029 it's a very important flight obviously 91 00:06:10,150 --> 00:06:06,950 alexander will will be very busy on the 92 00:06:11,350 --> 00:06:10,160 in the in the next six months and 93 00:06:13,029 --> 00:06:11,360 i think that 94 00:06:15,189 --> 00:06:13,039 he will have 95 00:06:16,790 --> 00:06:15,199 very little time to 96 00:06:21,189 --> 00:06:16,800 to enjoy 97 00:06:23,909 --> 00:06:21,199 station because he's a he has a very 98 00:06:26,790 --> 00:06:23,919 heavy schedule a lot of 99 00:06:29,110 --> 00:06:26,800 scientific experiments to uh 100 00:06:32,150 --> 00:06:29,120 to conduct and 101 00:06:33,430 --> 00:06:32,160 to have one alexander gersti on board 102 00:06:36,710 --> 00:06:33,440 there are 103 00:06:38,870 --> 00:06:36,720 several hundreds of scientists 104 00:06:40,230 --> 00:06:38,880 working 105 00:06:42,870 --> 00:06:40,240 with him 106 00:06:45,909 --> 00:06:42,880 to make to make scientific experiments 107 00:06:47,670 --> 00:06:45,919 between physiology biology 108 00:06:50,309 --> 00:06:47,680 fundamental physics 109 00:06:53,189 --> 00:06:50,319 and i am convinced that the 110 00:06:56,230 --> 00:06:53,199 the scientific progress which we shall 111 00:06:59,430 --> 00:06:56,240 get from these six months this coming 112 00:07:02,870 --> 00:06:59,440 six months will have a lot of 113 00:07:07,110 --> 00:07:02,880 positive feedback on planet earth 114 00:07:08,790 --> 00:07:07,120 people for the health of citizens or 115 00:07:12,150 --> 00:07:08,800 to get 116 00:07:16,950 --> 00:07:14,870 on planet earth so i think that it 117 00:07:17,830 --> 00:07:16,960 he's not there as a tourist he's there 118 00:07:23,029 --> 00:07:17,840 as 119 00:07:26,070 --> 00:07:23,039 representative of the of the scientists 120 00:07:26,080 --> 00:08:31,029 he will it will be very busy 121 00:08:35,029 --> 00:08:32,630 maybe one 122 00:08:36,630 --> 00:08:35,039 one additional uh 123 00:08:38,870 --> 00:08:36,640 important aspect of the flight of 124 00:08:41,029 --> 00:08:38,880 alexander i think that 125 00:08:42,790 --> 00:08:41,039 alexander will be also 126 00:08:46,070 --> 00:08:42,800 during this six months 127 00:08:50,150 --> 00:08:46,080 a model for the for for the children and 128 00:08:53,269 --> 00:08:50,160 the uh and the young generation and 129 00:08:56,150 --> 00:08:53,279 i am convinced that by uh 130 00:09:02,230 --> 00:08:59,829 alexander a lot of young people in 131 00:09:03,430 --> 00:09:02,240 europe and maybe even beyond europe 132 00:09:09,829 --> 00:09:03,440 will 133 00:09:12,310 --> 00:09:09,839 the future is made of cooperation and 134 00:09:45,269 --> 00:09:12,320 that space also belongs to the future of 135 00:09:49,990 --> 00:09:47,110 television congratulations on this 136 00:09:52,310 --> 00:09:50,000 triumph today for each of you gentlemen 137 00:09:53,829 --> 00:09:52,320 in demonstrating this human and 138 00:09:55,910 --> 00:09:53,839 technical achievement of reaching the 139 00:09:57,750 --> 00:09:55,920 station in just six hours with a 140 00:10:00,310 --> 00:09:57,760 multilateral crew 141 00:10:01,990 --> 00:10:00,320 what message do we send the world about 142 00:10:03,030 --> 00:10:02,000 what nations can do when they work 143 00:10:40,870 --> 00:10:03,040 together 144 00:10:45,190 --> 00:10:42,949 absolutely correct that only working 145 00:10:47,110 --> 00:10:45,200 together we can achieve high results if 146 00:10:48,550 --> 00:10:47,120 we will not work together 147 00:10:50,389 --> 00:10:48,560 will never be 148 00:10:52,389 --> 00:10:50,399 because so many people 149 00:10:54,470 --> 00:10:52,399 need to approach joint activities 150 00:10:56,710 --> 00:10:54,480 because they're very very difficult to 151 00:10:59,509 --> 00:10:56,720 achieve there are many components and 152 00:11:01,829 --> 00:10:59,519 thousands of people work on the same 153 00:11:03,670 --> 00:11:01,839 activity to achieve high results and we 154 00:11:05,350 --> 00:11:03,680 can only achieve those by working 155 00:11:08,389 --> 00:11:05,360 together if you look at it those 156 00:11:10,949 --> 00:11:08,399 processes are very very complex and 157 00:11:13,430 --> 00:11:10,959 thousands of people are working together 158 00:11:15,590 --> 00:11:13,440 and nothing can fail all of the pieces 159 00:11:17,750 --> 00:11:15,600 and assemblies need to 160 00:11:19,509 --> 00:11:17,760 provide and achieve results and i hope 161 00:11:24,710 --> 00:11:19,519 that we will actually work together like 162 00:11:28,069 --> 00:11:25,509 and 163 00:11:30,389 --> 00:11:28,079 i would add that again what we saw today 164 00:11:32,710 --> 00:11:30,399 sometimes looks easy on television but 165 00:11:34,069 --> 00:11:32,720 it is not easy 166 00:11:35,269 --> 00:11:34,079 in reality 167 00:11:37,670 --> 00:11:35,279 it really comes from a lot of 168 00:11:40,150 --> 00:11:37,680 preparation and a lot of hard work 169 00:11:42,069 --> 00:11:40,160 it also comes from a lot of teamwork 170 00:11:43,350 --> 00:11:42,079 as you as you look at the video images 171 00:11:45,829 --> 00:11:43,360 some of those came through nasa 172 00:11:48,389 --> 00:11:45,839 resources down here to the ground 173 00:11:49,990 --> 00:11:48,399 the soyuz vehicle performed flawlessly 174 00:11:51,509 --> 00:11:50,000 built here in russia the rendezvous 175 00:11:53,670 --> 00:11:51,519 systems worked 176 00:11:55,670 --> 00:11:53,680 precisely as they should go work 177 00:11:57,350 --> 00:11:55,680 but the communications and video and 178 00:11:59,350 --> 00:11:57,360 other things were coming from the nasa 179 00:12:01,350 --> 00:11:59,360 side and from the space station so again 180 00:12:03,910 --> 00:12:01,360 that cooperation 181 00:12:06,150 --> 00:12:03,920 between the programs and the partners 182 00:12:07,590 --> 00:12:06,160 really make this activity work 183 00:12:10,230 --> 00:12:07,600 and hopefully 184 00:12:12,150 --> 00:12:10,240 the youth of the world can see that from 185 00:12:13,670 --> 00:12:12,160 from hard work comes really good things 186 00:12:15,030 --> 00:12:13,680 and hopefully there's some inspiration 187 00:12:17,110 --> 00:12:15,040 that comes from this and and the 188 00:12:19,590 --> 00:12:17,120 beautiful images of the earth that we 189 00:12:21,269 --> 00:12:19,600 get to see and the astronauts and their 190 00:12:23,110 --> 00:12:21,279 their words that they share with us 191 00:12:25,750 --> 00:12:23,120 maybe it will inspire all of us to work 192 00:12:27,190 --> 00:12:25,760 harder to figure out ways to work as a 193 00:12:29,430 --> 00:12:27,200 team 194 00:12:32,230 --> 00:12:29,440 prior to launch i i talked to my 195 00:12:34,790 --> 00:12:32,240 colleagues and i saw a 196 00:12:37,430 --> 00:12:34,800 a crew that was really united was really 197 00:12:39,910 --> 00:12:37,440 one team ready to work together 198 00:12:42,310 --> 00:12:39,920 olig told me how he's worked with both 199 00:12:45,190 --> 00:12:42,320 alexander and worked with reed 200 00:12:48,069 --> 00:12:45,200 and instead of being 201 00:12:51,190 --> 00:12:48,079 astronauts they're really cosmonauts 202 00:12:53,590 --> 00:12:51,200 he he treated them as as an equal and he 203 00:12:55,509 --> 00:12:53,600 and they really grew as a team so i 204 00:12:57,750 --> 00:12:55,519 think we should look to this this crew 205 00:13:00,389 --> 00:12:57,760 as a role model and we ought to model 206 00:13:02,310 --> 00:13:00,399 their activities and and figure out ways 207 00:13:04,550 --> 00:13:02,320 that we can work as that same seamless 208 00:13:06,710 --> 00:13:04,560 team moving forward you know i can't 209 00:13:09,590 --> 00:13:06,720 think personally of any place better to 210 00:13:11,590 --> 00:13:09,600 be than to here today other than if if 211 00:13:13,509 --> 00:13:11,600 the three of us were on a soyuz vehicle 212 00:13:15,910 --> 00:13:13,519 heading to space i'm sure john jacques 213 00:13:17,750 --> 00:13:15,920 would like to go to space yes i think 214 00:13:19,030 -->
