we're doing great we're having fun up

14
00:01:21,270 --> 00:01:05,600
here doing a little science and keeping

15
00:01:25,109 --> 00:01:23,350
we're just coming up over central south

16
00:01:27,830 --> 00:01:25,119
america and then we'll go across the

17
00:01:34,789 --> 00:01:27,840
north coast of south america and up over

18
00:01:34,799 --> 00:01:39,990
perfecto estando donde

19
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:47,510
can you really watch the world cup games

20
00:01:50,710 --> 00:01:48,389
yes

21
00:01:53,350 --> 00:01:50,720
some of the games will get uplinked

22
00:01:55,190 --> 00:01:53,360
directly through radio transmission and

23
00:01:58,149 --> 00:01:55,200
we can watch them live of course we have

24
00:02:00,870 --> 00:01:58,159
a lot of signs to do on the side and so

25
00:02:08,790 --> 00:02:00,880
once in a while we can get a peek at the

26
00:02:13,750 --> 00:02:10,869
great technology so i understand there's

27
00:02:15,510 --> 00:02:13,760
two americans on board and one german

28
00:02:18,550 --> 00:02:15,520
there's a match coming up between the

29
00:02:34,550 --> 00:02:18,560
states and germany do you have um any

30
00:02:38,710 --> 00:02:36,550
yes of course we have a bet going uh

31
00:02:40,869 --> 00:02:38,720
these guys said if usa loses they're

32
00:02:42,949 --> 00:02:40,879
gonna shave their heads actually

33
00:02:45,830 --> 00:02:42,959
and uh if of course because i have

34
00:02:48,630 --> 00:02:45,840
already my head shaved if i if germany

35
00:02:55,910 --> 00:02:48,640
loses then they're gonna paint a us flag

36
00:02:59,589 --> 00:02:58,390
so i i see that you can have a ball can

37
00:03:01,750 --> 00:02:59,599
you actually

38
00:03:09,670 --> 00:03:01,760
play some some soccer

39
00:03:39,190 --> 00:03:12,149
oh we try we have fun with it yeah we

40
00:03:48,789 --> 00:03:41,589
what would be your message to your

41
00:04:07,429 --> 00:03:50,789
i think the message is i believe we will

42
00:04:11,110 --> 00:04:09,030
i'm sure he told his team good luck

43
00:04:12,830 --> 00:04:11,120
because the americans are going to beat

44
00:04:15,509 --> 00:04:12,840
them and try to

45
00:04:17,990 --> 00:04:15,519
recover from your sadness

46
00:04:24,950 --> 00:04:18,000
somebody's afraid of having to fulfill

47
00:04:40,550 --> 00:04:26,150
so

48
00:04:43,270 --> 00:04:40,560
go ahead and read one of them octavio

49
00:04:46,150 --> 00:04:43,280
flores asks if they could come back to

50
00:04:49,350 --> 00:04:46,160
earth in time for one world cup match

51
00:04:57,830 --> 00:04:49,360
what teams would they face each other

52
00:05:03,189 --> 00:04:59,830
that's a really good question

53
00:05:05,510 --> 00:05:03,199
i've been enjoying many of the games

54
00:05:07,590 --> 00:05:05,520
argentina messi his play has been

55
00:05:09,909 --> 00:05:07,600
fantastic but for me it would have to be

56
00:05:10,790 --> 00:05:09,919
a game of course hopefully the us will

57
00:05:12,310 --> 00:05:10,800
make it

58
00:05:14,550 --> 00:05:12,320
to the championship

59
00:05:16,070 --> 00:05:14,560
i sure hope so and if they would play

60
00:05:32,310 --> 00:05:16,080
germany in a championship that would be

61
00:05:42,950 --> 00:05:34,230
what team do you support and what's your

62
00:05:46,790 --> 00:05:44,550
yeah my favorite player probably already

63
00:05:49,350 --> 00:05:46,800
mentioned messi he was just fantastic uh

64
00:05:51,590 --> 00:05:49,360
so far in the tournament and uh i love

65
00:05:53,670 --> 00:05:51,600
watching the the australian sorry the

66
00:06:01,749 --> 00:05:53,680
argentinian team so that's just a great

67
00:06:01,759 --> 00:06:11,189
do you have any world cup memories

68
00:06:14,710 --> 00:06:13,110
i think without a doubt we all have our

69
00:06:16,710 --> 00:06:14,720
own personal world cup memories but i

70
00:06:18,070 --> 00:06:16,720
think when we look back at the next

71
00:06:20,070 --> 00:06:18,080
world cup we're going to remember

72
00:06:21,590 --> 00:06:20,080
watching all these games up here is a

73
00:06:23,670 --> 00:06:21,600
crew and a lot of times we have our

74
00:06:25,430 --> 00:06:23,680
russian crewmates down here to watch

75
00:06:27,189 --> 00:06:25,440
with us and i think when all six of us

76
00:06:28,469 --> 00:06:27,199
are together watching world cup that's

77
00:06:30,950 --> 00:06:28,479
going to be a memory that i'll keep with

78
00:06:44,950 --> 00:06:30,960
me forever and i know alex and steve

79
00:06:48,309 --> 00:06:46,390
most of the people that are watching are

80
00:06:50,710 --> 00:06:48,319
mexican so uh have you watched the

81
00:06:54,710 --> 00:06:50,720
mexican national team do do you like the

82
00:06:58,950 --> 00:06:57,430
yeah we watched l3 a few times i watched

83
00:07:02,070 --> 00:06:58,960
them when we're back in houston actually

84
00:07:09,110 --> 00:07:02,080
too so uh they're another fantastic team

85
00:07:13,589 --> 00:07:11,909
so um let me ask some scientific

86
00:07:15,510 --> 00:07:13,599
questions what are you doing up there

87
00:07:22,790 --> 00:07:15,520
what what experiments are you conducting

88
00:07:25,589 --> 00:07:23,670
actually

89
00:07:28,629 --> 00:07:25,599
just today i was working right here in

90
00:07:32,070 --> 00:07:28,639
this glove box on an experiment that is

91
00:07:33,830 --> 00:07:32,080
about burning things in space for better

92
00:07:35,510 --> 00:07:33,840
fire safety on earth we look how

93
00:07:38,230 --> 00:07:35,520
materials burn in weightlessness and we

94
00:07:40,309 --> 00:07:38,240
can learn a lot about making materials

95
00:07:43,430 --> 00:07:40,319
much more safe down on earth and that's

96
00:07:55,830 --> 00:07:43,440
just one of 160 experiments that we have

97
00:08:02,950 --> 00:07:57,510
what's the coolest thing of having no

98
00:08:07,510 --> 00:08:05,670
yeah just moving around doing flips we

99
00:08:09,510 --> 00:08:07,520
we have contests on how many flips you

100
00:08:11,670 --> 00:08:09,520
can do and how far you can go without

101
00:08:13,430 --> 00:08:11,680
hitting the wall all sorts of contests

102
00:08:21,430 --> 00:08:13,440
it's just a wonderful it's the biggest

103
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:25,510
excellent

104
00:08:32,469 --> 00:08:27,029

well we have done live shots before but

121
00:09:21,670 --> 00:09:19,680
nothing like this joining us from t from

122
00:09:24,389 --> 00:09:21,680
the international space station is

123
00:09:27,030 --> 00:09:24,399
american astronaut reed weissman and

124
00:09:29,670 --> 00:09:27,040
german astronaut alexander gerst in

125
00:09:31,670 --> 00:09:29,680
between them is commander steven swanson

126
00:09:34,630 --> 00:09:31,680
and all these men are part of the

127
00:09:37,030 --> 00:09:34,640
expedition 40 and guys in between your

128
00:09:39,269 --> 00:09:37,040
scientific research on board the station

129
00:09:40,150 --> 00:09:39,279
you guys watch the world cup matches

130
00:09:42,310 --> 00:09:40,160
read

131
00:09:44,550 --> 00:09:42,320
how are you feeling about this team the

132
00:09:49,990 --> 00:09:44,560
us entering thursday's match against

133
00:09:54,150 --> 00:09:51,990
well i you know i guess i gotta say i

134
00:09:57,269 --> 00:09:54,160
believe we will win i think it's kind of

135
00:09:58,470 --> 00:09:57,279
a a perfect recipe here for us uh we've

136
00:10:00,230 --> 00:09:58,480
already looked at our schedules for

137
00:10:02,310 --> 00:10:00,240
thursday to see how we can sneak in a

138
00:10:04,150 --> 00:10:02,320
few peaks of the game and our what will

139
00:10:06,230 --> 00:10:04,160
be our afternoon and you better believe

140
00:10:07,350 --> 00:10:06,240
we'll be watching and i think it's uh

141
00:10:09,030 --> 00:10:07,360
it's looking good because it's two

142
00:10:13,430 --> 00:10:09,040
against one up here so i think the u.s

143
00:10:16,310 --> 00:10:14,870
well this is a question now for

144
00:10:18,069 --> 00:10:16,320
alexander

145
00:10:19,829 --> 00:10:18,079
how do you feel about a german legend

146
00:10:24,310 --> 00:10:19,839
like jurgen klinsman coaching against

147
00:10:29,110 --> 00:10:26,949
well it's interesting to see of course

148
00:10:31,350 --> 00:10:29,120
for me even more so because he's from

149
00:10:33,910 --> 00:10:31,360
the same state of germany than i he he

150
00:10:37,190 --> 00:10:33,920
grew up at this almost at the same place

151
00:10:38,949 --> 00:10:37,200
so uh well in a way even if the u.s win

152
00:10:41,030 --> 00:10:38,959
they it's still a little bit of a

153
00:10:43,030 --> 00:10:41,040
victory for germany then

154
00:10:45,269 --> 00:10:43,040
so i'm not afraid we have this little

155
00:10:48,630 --> 00:10:45,279
bet going of course

156
00:10:50,630 --> 00:10:48,640
if the us if the u.s win these guys are

157
00:10:52,949 --> 00:10:50,640
allowed to draw a little u.s flag on my

158
00:10:54,630 --> 00:10:52,959
head but then again if germany wins i

159
00:10:57,269 --> 00:10:54,640
think these guys need to need to shave

160
00:10:58,710 --> 00:10:57,279
their heads so we all look alike so in

161
00:11:00,470 --> 00:10:58,720
either way i'm looking forward to the

162
00:11:04,949 --> 00:11:00,480
outcome of this game and

163
00:11:08,870 --> 00:11:07,190
steven now you have the soccer ball in

164
00:11:11,670 --> 00:11:08,880
your hand right there it was so cool

165
00:11:13,910 --> 00:11:11,680
floating in space as we started the

166
00:11:16,310 --> 00:11:13,920
interview i hear you guys try to play

167
00:11:20,550 --> 00:11:16,320
some soccer on board the international

168
00:11:25,430 --> 00:11:22,870
yes we did we actually played almost but

169
00:11:28,710 --> 00:11:25,440
for a half hour and we had a really good

170
00:11:30,230 --> 00:11:28,720
time uh but uh uh

171
00:11:31,670 --> 00:11:30,240
nobody actually won i don't think we

172
00:11:36,389 --> 00:11:31,680
actually got a goal ever scored but we

173
00:11:41,670 --> 00:11:38,230
well gravity is your biggest opponent

174
00:11:44,310 --> 00:11:41,680
steven uh we do appreciate as well as uh

175
00:11:46,310 --> 00:11:44,320
reid and alexander of course we're going

176
00:11:47,670 --> 00:11:46,320
to see how things play out on thursday i

177
00:11:49,670 --> 00:11:47,680
just want to get back with you guys to

178
00:11:51,430 --> 00:11:49,680
see if the u.s wins so we can see the

179
00:11:53,670 --> 00:11:51,440
the american flag

180
00:11:56,710 --> 00:11:53,680
on alexander's head by the end of the

181
00:12:00,790 --> 00:11:59,190
oh definitely definitely there'll be uh

182
00:12:04,310 --> 00:12:00,800
lots of stars up in his head that's for

183
00:12:08,150 --> 00:12:06,389
you know actually thank you so much i'll

184
00:12:09,190 --> 00:12:08,160
be happy with the draw

185
00:12:11,910 --> 00:12:09,200
