and alex we're ready to start when you

2
00:00:06,560 --> 00:00:10,790
station is ready for the event

3
00:00:17,189 --> 00:00:12,950
station this is houston are you ready

4
00:00:31,109 --> 00:00:19,029
international space station is ready for

5
00:00:42,470 --> 00:00:33,430
and issa this is mission control houston

6
00:00:51,990 --> 00:00:45,430
station from council tower town square

7
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,350
out of the internet

8
00:01:06,550 --> 00:00:57,350
welcome to the international space

9
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:17,030
hello alex hello alex

10
00:01:21,350 --> 00:01:18,550
and i see a lot of people here who would

11
00:01:51,030 --> 00:01:21,360
like to stand on the stage here with me

12
00:01:55,030 --> 00:01:52,950
okay alex i'm so excited to see you

13
00:01:57,910 --> 00:01:55,040
again

14
00:02:01,190 --> 00:01:57,920
it's nice to see you i'm very happy

15
00:02:04,550 --> 00:02:01,200
to tell you i'm happy to call home

16
00:02:08,469 --> 00:02:06,550
i have to admit i'm a little bit nervous

17
00:02:14,470 --> 00:02:08,479
i was looking forward to it very much to

18
00:02:23,350 --> 00:02:18,630
alex

19
00:02:26,550 --> 00:02:24,790
you would be much more nervous if you

20
00:02:28,229 --> 00:02:26,560
looked at your laptop because i just

21
00:02:30,390 --> 00:02:28,239
sent you a picture

22
00:02:31,830 --> 00:02:30,400
of the uh crowds of people who are here

23
00:02:48,790 --> 00:02:31,840
you then you would have some idea how

24
00:02:53,990 --> 00:02:52,229
that the bus stop was relocated and i

25
00:02:55,190 --> 00:02:54,000
hope nobody was inconvenienced by that

26
00:03:00,470 --> 00:02:55,200
because i don't think that's ever

27
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:13,509
i have one thing to ask you

28
00:03:16,070 --> 00:03:15,270
that are here or is it only something

29
00:03:20,630 --> 00:03:16,080
for

30
00:03:23,350 --> 00:03:20,640
speaks to children what do you do on the

31
00:03:27,110 --> 00:03:25,509
i have to disagree with you it's

32
00:03:29,030 --> 00:03:27,120
absolutely nothing for adults it's much

33
00:03:30,949 --> 00:03:29,040
more for children

34
00:03:32,470 --> 00:03:30,959
if you travel on this thing you really

35
00:03:34,309 --> 00:03:32,480
have to be a little bit of a child

36
00:03:36,470 --> 00:03:34,319
inside and i think the children

37
00:03:38,710 --> 00:03:36,480
understand me quite well

38
00:03:41,589 --> 00:03:38,720
we have a lot of experiments here for

39
00:03:43,509 --> 00:03:41,599
science of course

40
00:03:45,990 --> 00:03:43,519
we have 160 different

41
00:03:48,390 --> 00:03:46,000
experiments but we've also done some

42
00:03:51,110 --> 00:03:48,400
especially for children

43
00:03:53,429 --> 00:03:51,120
where we demonstrate physical effects uh

44
00:03:55,670 --> 00:03:53,439
in space versus on earth

45
00:03:57,589 --> 00:03:55,680
and i think young people

46
00:03:59,589 --> 00:03:57,599
are quite fascinated by them

47
00:04:02,070 --> 00:03:59,599
and and we're hoping to kindle some

48
00:04:05,030 --> 00:04:02,080
enthusiasm for

49
00:04:07,670 --> 00:04:05,040
say studying sciences and and

50
00:04:09,670 --> 00:04:07,680
it would help us in germany of course

51
00:04:26,230 --> 00:04:09,680
and i i'm quite sure it would be a lot

52
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:35,350
correctly

53
00:04:55,030 --> 00:04:38,710
what planets can you see from the iss

54
00:04:59,270 --> 00:04:56,790
in the shadow of the earth 16 times a

55
00:05:01,029 --> 00:04:59,280
day and then during that time when we're

56
00:05:04,230 --> 00:05:01,039
in the shadow of the earth

57
00:05:06,870 --> 00:05:04,240
we could see all kinds of planets

58
00:05:08,230 --> 00:05:06,880
i could see mars venus

59
00:05:10,550 --> 00:05:08,240
sometimes

60
00:05:13,189 --> 00:05:10,560
not only that but you can see the milky

61
00:05:15,510 --> 00:05:13,199
way and the clarity that i've never

62
00:05:18,310 --> 00:05:15,520
never seen before

63
00:05:21,430 --> 00:05:18,320
and you see it with your bare eyes

64
00:05:24,070 --> 00:05:21,440
and sometimes you see a shooting star

65
00:05:32,310 --> 00:05:24,080
the amazing thing is it's it's below us

66
00:05:44,629 --> 00:05:35,590
are you allowed to wish for something

67
00:05:48,550 --> 00:05:46,390
i hope everybody comes back who's here

68
00:05:50,710 --> 00:05:48,560
tonight when we throw a huge party for

69
00:06:02,070 --> 00:05:50,720
alex after he laughs

70
00:06:18,950 --> 00:06:03,430
but we have people who have been waiting

71
00:06:22,070 --> 00:06:20,390
how you can manage to be in such a

72
00:06:24,790 --> 00:06:22,080
confined space as you float through

73
00:06:29,590 --> 00:06:28,150
hello sonic hello

74
00:06:33,270 --> 00:06:29,600
it's really a good question i have to

75
00:06:35,830 --> 00:06:33,280
admit we are confined in here

76
00:06:38,150 --> 00:06:35,840
people think of it as a

77
00:06:40,070 --> 00:06:38,160
like a can of sardines but it's really

78
00:06:42,150 --> 00:06:40,080
quite spacious inside

79
00:06:46,550 --> 00:06:42,160
and it has the same amount of room for

80
00:06:48,390 --> 00:06:46,560
six of us as the same as a boeing 747.

81
00:06:50,870 --> 00:06:48,400
and we work in our separate modules and

82
00:06:52,710 --> 00:06:50,880
we do our work and and we uh it's really

83
00:06:54,390 --> 00:06:52,720
a nice experience when we see each other

84
00:06:57,189 --> 00:06:54,400
at meal time and when we look out the

85
00:07:01,589 --> 00:06:58,629
when you look out the windows you see

86
00:07:04,150 --> 00:07:01,599
the continents floating away from enough

87
00:07:06,230 --> 00:07:04,160
because it's so big and vast outside

88
00:07:07,270 --> 00:07:06,240
i i don't have the feeling of being

89
00:07:09,029 --> 00:07:07,280
confined

90
00:07:11,589 --> 00:07:09,039
and i'm zipping around the earth every

91
00:07:13,670 --> 00:07:11,599
90 minutes and that's

92
00:07:20,950 --> 00:07:13,680
you cannot feel restricted or confined

93
00:07:26,790 --> 00:07:24,070
okay we have political prominence here

94
00:07:29,189 --> 00:07:26,800
who are very interested in

95
00:07:40,150 --> 00:07:29,199
space and who also have been very

96
00:07:43,029 --> 00:07:41,029
okay

97
00:07:45,029 --> 00:07:43,039
i would like to know whether you're on

98
00:07:47,510 --> 00:07:45,039
the same time zone

99
00:07:49,510 --> 00:07:47,520
plan uh what sort of schedule do you

100
00:07:53,189 --> 00:07:49,520
follow when you're in space because

101
00:08:00,150 --> 00:07:56,469
you have sunrise 18 times a day or so

102
00:08:02,950 --> 00:08:00,160
how do you organize your day

103
00:08:04,790 --> 00:08:02,960
yeah christian hello christian

104
00:08:06,150 --> 00:08:04,800
against the cream it's quite convenient

105
00:08:07,749 --> 00:08:06,160
up here uh

106
00:08:09,990 --> 00:08:07,759
in greenwich mean time yes

107
00:08:12,950 --> 00:08:10,000
we live according to utc or the the

108
00:08:15,510 --> 00:08:12,960
former uh gmt greenwich mean time

109
00:08:17,990 --> 00:08:15,520
we're two ways uh two hours away from

110
00:08:20,710 --> 00:08:18,000
from germany so it's uh

111
00:08:23,990 --> 00:08:20,720
half past five in the evening

112
00:08:29,110 --> 00:08:26,469
it's a good idea to keep to uh

113
00:08:31,029 --> 00:08:29,120
to a 24-hour schedule because people are

114
00:08:32,790 --> 00:08:31,039
creatures of habit we rise at the same

115
00:08:35,750 --> 00:08:32,800
time we go to bed at the same time it's

116
00:08:38,870 --> 00:08:35,760
pretty much the same as on earth

117
00:08:41,750 --> 00:08:38,880
with 16 sunrises and sunsets you you you

118
00:08:44,550 --> 00:08:41,760
can't keep to those schedules because i

119
00:08:45,670 --> 00:08:44,560
think you lose your mind

120
00:08:48,870 --> 00:08:45,680
i've clicked

121
00:08:52,870 --> 00:08:48,880
yeah that sounds logical

122
00:08:52,880 --> 00:09:00,949
i'm

123
00:09:06,870 --> 00:09:03,910
what experiments do you uh think are

124
00:09:09,430 --> 00:09:06,880
particularly important and significant

125
00:09:10,949 --> 00:09:09,440
oh that's a very good question as well

126
00:09:14,630 --> 00:09:10,959
but it's very difficult to answer we

127
00:09:19,110 --> 00:09:14,640
have 160 experiments here as i said from

128
00:09:22,550 --> 00:09:20,630
i talked to the

129
00:09:24,949 --> 00:09:22,560
european uh

130
00:09:27,430 --> 00:09:24,959
uh oliver and the uh

131
00:09:29,430 --> 00:09:27,440
the uh boxes are stacking up here with

132
00:09:32,310 --> 00:09:29,440
experiments that we still have to do

133
00:10:02,949 --> 00:09:34,389
the future

134
00:10:07,829 --> 00:10:05,269
uh medications

135
00:10:10,790 --> 00:10:07,839
for osteoporosis

136
00:10:12,790 --> 00:10:10,800
new vaccinations

137
00:10:14,230 --> 00:10:12,800
and we lay the foundation for that i

138
00:10:16,230 --> 00:10:14,240
could talk all evening about all the

139
00:10:18,069 --> 00:10:16,240
experiments

140
00:10:22,230 --> 00:10:18,079
quite a few relevant things on board

141
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,750
wow

142
00:10:41,030 --> 00:10:27,910
okay back to queensland's house on earth

143
00:10:49,990 --> 00:10:42,870
zero gravity you you have hit the

144
00:10:53,350 --> 00:10:51,990
yes you do everything the same as you do

145
00:10:55,670 --> 00:10:53,360
on earth you have the hiccups and you

146
00:10:57,990 --> 00:10:55,680
sneeze just the same in zero gravity as

147
00:11:00,870 --> 00:10:58,000
on earth

148
00:11:06,949 --> 00:11:00,880
okay right after

149
00:11:16,310 --> 00:11:09,910
i look at your pictures every day

150
00:11:19,670 --> 00:11:18,550
how often would you have time to try and

151
00:11:21,590 --> 00:11:19,680
capture kunsan's health from

152
00:11:23,590 --> 00:11:21,600
specifically

153
00:11:25,509 --> 00:11:23,600
it took me quite some time

154
00:11:36,630 --> 00:11:25,519
uh took quite a while to do that because

155
00:11:46,630 --> 00:11:37,670
i

156
00:11:51,350 --> 00:11:49,430
and you have a few seconds uh 10 20

157
00:11:53,190 --> 00:11:51,360
seconds and then next thing you know

158
00:12:11,030 --> 00:11:53,200
you're above moscow so you have to act

159
00:12:16,230 --> 00:12:13,590
what was uh your most beautiful

160
00:12:17,590 --> 00:12:16,240
moment or experience during this mission

161
00:12:19,990 --> 00:12:17,600
that's a very difficult question to

162
00:12:32,470 --> 00:12:20,000
answer there have been so many

163
00:12:37,030 --> 00:12:34,470
to see that it pressed me into the seat

164
00:12:39,670 --> 00:12:37,040
and actually started and took off with

165
00:12:41,430 --> 00:12:39,680
me and once we were in space

166
00:12:43,269 --> 00:12:41,440
i saw that blue

167
00:12:47,670 --> 00:12:43,279
shimmering color coming in through the

168
00:12:53,030 --> 00:12:50,629
and i i did see the earth as a blue

169
00:12:55,030 --> 00:12:53,040
sickle beneath me and that just blew me

170
00:12:56,550 --> 00:12:55,040
away and that is an experiment and an

171
00:12:59,829 --> 00:12:56,560
experience in the moment that i will

172
00:13:09,829 --> 00:13:01,990
alex

173
00:13:14,790 --> 00:13:11,670
okay what would you take with you if you

174
00:13:16,550 --> 00:13:14,800
were going to space for in a rocket for

175
00:13:18,949 --> 00:13:16,560
half a half a year what would you take

176
00:13:20,710 --> 00:13:18,959
with you except school books alex i'll

177
00:13:23,269 --> 00:13:20,720
ask you

178
00:13:25,269 --> 00:13:23,279
what did you take

179
00:13:27,990 --> 00:13:25,279
most of it is already here that the

180
00:13:31,829 --> 00:13:28,000
stuff i took with me were small little

181
00:13:38,790 --> 00:13:33,750
something to remind me of council tower

182
00:13:44,069 --> 00:13:41,110
oh okay and the uh

183
00:13:45,590 --> 00:13:44,079
flags and photos of my uh from my family

184
00:13:48,150 --> 00:13:45,600
and friends that that was the most

185
00:13:49,910 --> 00:13:48,160
important for me to take and

186
00:13:55,590 --> 00:13:49,920
as for the rest if i just look out the

187
00:14:08,389 --> 00:13:58,310
no plush animals

188
00:14:12,790 --> 00:14:09,590
okay it's

189
00:14:15,750 --> 00:14:12,800

199
00:15:10,310 --> 00:14:55,110

200
00:15:14,150 --> 00:15:12,069

okay we have our monday mornings here

206
00:15:27,590 --> 00:15:25,519
and

207
00:15:35,110 --> 00:15:27,600
that's why we don't plan any interviews

208
00:15:43,509 --> 00:15:38,310
i'm going to ask the physics teacher

209
00:15:47,910 --> 00:15:46,150
what should alex bring back from in

210
00:15:51,590 --> 00:15:47,920
terms of his experiments for you to use

211
00:15:51,600 --> 00:16:05,670
i followed all your training

212
00:16:10,310 --> 00:16:06,949
embarrassed because they're physics

213
00:16:14,790 --> 00:16:12,550
okay but i plan to use something

214
00:16:16,389 --> 00:16:14,800
from your experiments in my classroom

215
00:16:17,910 --> 00:16:16,399
even if it's not actually in my lesson

216
00:16:31,670 --> 00:16:17,920
plan

217
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:40,550
and the control center is very important

218
00:16:43,749 --> 00:16:42,470
okay what do you think alex should take

219
00:16:45,829 --> 00:16:43,759
bring home

220
00:16:48,310 --> 00:16:45,839
and be able to say that that was a real

221
00:16:57,430 --> 00:16:49,829
i'm so happy that we see each other

222
00:17:01,990 --> 00:16:59,350
there are more than 30 experiments that

223
00:17:04,390 --> 00:17:02,000
alex is doing

224
00:17:05,590 --> 00:17:04,400
and they're in all the lofty circles of

225
00:17:10,870 --> 00:17:05,600
uh

226
00:17:12,390 --> 00:17:10,880
these but he's going to bring back

227
00:17:14,470 --> 00:17:12,400
with a lot of knowledge

228
00:17:29,830 --> 00:17:14,480
but please allow me alex

229
00:17:33,270 --> 00:17:31,669
how does it feel to read these headlines

230
00:17:34,470 --> 00:17:33,280
up there

231
00:17:36,390 --> 00:17:34,480
how do you

232
00:17:39,110 --> 00:17:36,400
talk about this do you discuss this at

233
00:17:41,190 --> 00:17:39,120
all amongst yourselves

234
00:17:43,350 --> 00:17:41,200
yeah thomas you know how it is you were

235
00:17:44,830 --> 00:17:43,360
in a similar situation yourself

236
00:17:47,909 --> 00:17:44,840
well you do discuss

237
00:17:49,830 --> 00:17:47,919
it but we're together as a crew

238
00:17:53,270 --> 00:17:49,840
and we are removed from earth

239
00:17:55,350 --> 00:17:53,280
and uh we have a different perspective

240
00:17:57,430 --> 00:17:55,360
of our planet it makes us see how small

241
00:17:58,630 --> 00:17:57,440
our planet is and how very vulnerable it

242
00:18:03,510 --> 00:17:58,640
is

243
00:18:05,190 --> 00:18:03,520
yes and it almost feels as though you

244
00:18:06,950 --> 00:18:05,200
could blow it away with your breath and

245
00:18:10,630 --> 00:18:06,960
if you see that and

246
00:18:12,070 --> 00:18:10,640
that people are waging war

247
00:18:14,230 --> 00:18:12,080
and we can sometimes actually see

248
00:18:15,830 --> 00:18:14,240
rockets fly it's horrible to see that

249
00:18:19,110 --> 00:18:15,840
and it doesn't matter where on earth it

250
00:18:21,510 --> 00:18:19,120
is this view it's a question of

251
00:18:22,230 --> 00:18:21,520
we have the perspective up here to see

252
00:18:23,990 --> 00:18:22,240
the

253
00:18:26,789 --> 00:18:24,000
picture as a whole

254
00:18:30,230 --> 00:18:26,799
and we have so many resources that we

255
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:34,390
pollution and through conflicts

256
00:18:38,630 --> 00:18:37,029
and that's a perspective that we will

257
00:18:54,789 --> 00:18:38,640
take back with us when we go back to

258
00:19:01,590 --> 00:18:57,669
one trick

259
00:19:02,390 --> 00:19:01,600
played and i think you

260
00:19:05,430 --> 00:19:02,400
uh

261
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:12,789
i've tried to train since last night

262
00:19:16,390 --> 00:19:15,029
i was never really a good gymnast i have

263
00:19:17,750 --> 00:19:16,400
my one chance

264
00:19:19,669 --> 00:19:17,760
up here

265
00:19:22,470 --> 00:19:19,679
in uh weightlessness

266
00:19:33,190 --> 00:19:22,480
it's probably not going to go well

267
00:19:41,270 --> 00:19:36,230
so this this is a special kind of jump

268
00:19:47,430 --> 00:19:43,590
okay we're going to say ciao

269
00:19:50,710 --> 00:19:47,440
