how do you read hey butch how're you

4
00:00:25,310 --> 00:00:23,450
okay I'm glad we didn't go through all

5
00:00:28,790 --> 00:00:25,320
the protocols and everything but I'm

6
00:00:30,019 --> 00:00:28,800
gonna ask you to introduce yourself and

7
00:00:32,150 --> 00:00:30,029
the rest of your crew members they're

8
00:00:33,500 --> 00:00:32,160
Samantha it's great to see you this is

9
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:33,510
the first time I've had a chance to talk

10
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:35,489
to you we have a group of school

11
00:00:38,780 --> 00:00:37,290
students down here from elementary all

12
00:00:42,319 --> 00:00:38,790
the way up through high school any

13
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:42,329
college students no and they really are

14
00:00:47,150 --> 00:00:44,730
anxious to ask you some questions so I'm

15
00:00:48,979 --> 00:00:47,160
gonna turn it over to you to introduce

16
00:00:50,330 --> 00:00:48,989
yourself and your crew and then we'll

17
00:00:51,799 --> 00:00:50,340
get right into the questions if that's

18
00:01:01,790 --> 00:00:51,809
okay with you and tell us a little bit

19
00:01:04,939 --> 00:01:01,800
about what's going on today that's why

20
00:01:06,710 --> 00:01:04,949
he keeps calling me butch and I've been

21
00:01:18,350 --> 00:01:06,720
up here for four months I launched on a

22
00:01:21,620 --> 00:01:18,360
Soyuz 40s I'm Air Force colonel terry

23
00:01:24,649 --> 00:01:21,630
virts and I launched in November with

24
00:01:27,170 --> 00:01:24,659
Samantha on Soyuz 41s from Baikonur in

25
00:01:28,730 --> 00:01:27,180
Kazakhstan we've been here for about two

26
00:01:31,249 --> 00:01:28,740
months and we've been very busy doing a

27
00:01:33,020 --> 00:01:31,259
lot of experiments and science and also

28
00:01:34,730 --> 00:01:33,030
getting maintenance done getting and

29
00:01:41,630 --> 00:01:34,740
keeping the space station in working

30
00:01:42,289 --> 00:01:41,640
order Italian Air Force captain samantha

31
00:01:44,300 --> 00:01:42,299
cristoforetti

32
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:44,310
and of course i came here about two

33
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:47,250
months ago with Terry and say miss Terry

34
00:01:51,770 --> 00:01:49,170
I'm enjoying my time up here and doing a

35
00:01:54,639 --> 00:01:51,780
lot of science doing all kinds of

36
00:01:58,280 --> 00:01:54,649
interesting scientific research and

37
00:02:00,980 --> 00:01:58,290
enjoying floating a lot great well Terry

38
00:02:03,530 --> 00:02:00,990
butch Samantha I'm now gonna do

39
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:03,540
somebody's question we do and here they

40
00:02:09,609 --> 00:02:06,090
come and you can step right out here

41
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:09,619
they can't see you my name is Latrice in

42
00:02:18,100 --> 00:02:13,050
life is this life in space hoarders at

43
00:02:24,610 --> 00:02:21,860
his life in space hard or is it easy

44
00:02:27,350 --> 00:02:24,620
well it depends on what you're doing

45
00:02:30,290 --> 00:02:27,360
some things I would say nothing's hard

46
00:02:32,150 --> 00:02:30,300
we're very very well-trained prepared

47
00:02:36,140 --> 00:02:32,160
well for all different aspects the

48
00:02:37,370 --> 00:02:36,150
launching the different science and and

49
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:37,380
protocols and things that we do

50
00:02:40,640 --> 00:02:38,970
maintenance that we do on board station

51
00:02:42,230 --> 00:02:40,650
of course the re-entry as well when we

52
00:02:44,420 --> 00:02:42,240
come back on the Russian Soyuz we're

53
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:44,430
very very well trained but days are long

54
00:02:49,490 --> 00:02:46,890
and sometimes they're filled with many

55
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:49,500
many many many many different tasks so

56
00:02:53,090 --> 00:02:51,330
if anything hard about it

57
00:02:56,180 --> 00:02:53,100
that would be it just keeping mentally

58
00:02:58,790 --> 00:02:56,190
tied in all the time can be very trying

59
00:03:00,500 --> 00:02:58,800
on your mind but what a great

60
00:03:01,940 --> 00:03:00,510
environment what a great place to work I

61
00:03:03,530 --> 00:03:01,950
mean you can flip upside down in a

62
00:03:05,510 --> 00:03:03,540
heartbeat the floor is the ceiling the

63
00:03:07,190 --> 00:03:05,520
ceiling is the floor there is no up or

64
00:03:10,250 --> 00:03:07,200
down and like Samantha said when we

65
00:03:27,650 --> 00:03:10,260
started it is a fabulous time and it's a

66
00:03:30,530 --> 00:03:27,660
lot of fun thank you that's a great

67
00:03:33,410 --> 00:03:30,540
question and as you can see it's so cool

68
00:03:34,850 --> 00:03:33,420
floating you can go on the ceiling you

69
00:03:36,620 --> 00:03:34,860
can go on the walls it doesn't matter

70
00:03:38,750 --> 00:03:36,630
which direction you are you can just

71
00:03:40,010 --> 00:03:38,760
readapt and after you've been here for a

72
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:40,020
few weeks you really get used to

73
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:42,930
floating and being weightless and it's

74
00:03:47,509 --> 00:03:44,610
really fun to be able to move around and

75
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:47,519
just kind of with no effort flip

76
00:03:51,199 --> 00:03:50,010
yourself over like that and for me

77
00:03:58,790 --> 00:03:51,209
that's probably my favorite thing that

78
00:04:01,160 --> 00:03:58,800
we get to do up here hello I'm Terry

79
00:04:10,550 --> 00:04:01,170
Mullins what's do you have to do to

80
00:04:15,420 --> 00:04:13,259
well there's different paths to become

81
00:04:17,969 --> 00:04:15,430
an astronaut some astronauts are

82
00:04:20,310 --> 00:04:17,979
military pilots most of them are also

83
00:04:23,250 --> 00:04:20,320
test pilots some astronauts are

84
00:04:25,050 --> 00:04:23,260
scientists or engineers and a lot of

85
00:04:26,700 --> 00:04:25,060
astronauts have mixed backgrounds like

86
00:04:28,770 --> 00:04:26,710
there are pilots but they also have a

87
00:04:31,230 --> 00:04:28,780
background in science or engineering or

88
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:31,240
medicine you can also study medicine we

89
00:04:36,469 --> 00:04:33,490
have also doctors in among our fellow

90
00:04:38,879 --> 00:04:36,479
astronauts so those are main main pads

91
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:38,889
it's important you know to work hard in

92
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:41,650
school to do well and I like to say it's

93
00:04:45,060 --> 00:04:43,450
really important to choose a career you

94
00:04:46,740 --> 00:04:45,070
know before you become an astronaut that

95
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:46,750
you really love that you're passionate

96
00:04:51,330 --> 00:04:49,210
about because that that's really the the

97
00:04:53,190 --> 00:04:51,340
key the secret to being good at what you

98
00:04:55,050 --> 00:04:53,200
do and you know when you're good at what

99
00:05:03,840 --> 00:04:55,060
you do then you're also a good candidate

100
00:05:06,860 --> 00:05:03,850
for the astronaut program hi I'm Danny

101
00:05:10,430 --> 00:05:06,870
Michaels and I go to Maury Elementary

102
00:05:23,570 --> 00:05:10,440
mine's kind of similar to her questions

103
00:05:29,610 --> 00:05:27,240
Danny the weather is always clear so

104
00:05:31,860 --> 00:05:29,620
that's a good thing what push didn't be

105
00:05:34,529 --> 00:05:31,870
to be an astronaut I think the biggest

106
00:05:36,150 --> 00:05:34,539
desire I had was to do the best what the

107
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:36,160
attributes that the good Lord gave me

108
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:38,530
and to try to pursue any and everything

109
00:05:43,950 --> 00:05:41,050
that I could and I wound up joining the

110
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:43,960
military had a patriotic tug and as I

111
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:45,970
was in the military I was able to fly

112
00:05:49,860 --> 00:05:47,530
was had that opportunity went to flight

113
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:49,870
school and once I got my wings my wings

114
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:52,330
of gold my Navy wings of gold there was

115
00:05:57,390 --> 00:05:55,090
no higher place you could fly or faster

116
00:05:59,490 --> 00:05:57,400
to fly than on the space shuttle so sort

117
00:06:01,050 --> 00:05:59,500
of that set that as a goal out there and

118
00:06:03,900 --> 00:06:01,060
thought maybe one day that might be an

119
00:06:05,070 --> 00:06:03,910
opportunity and eventually in 2009 I was

120
00:06:07,379 --> 00:06:05,080
able to do that fly the space shuttle

121
00:06:08,670 --> 00:06:07,389
and then recently like we just said four

122
00:06:11,969 --> 00:06:08,680
months ago launched on a Russian Soyuz

123
00:06:13,650 --> 00:06:11,979
and here we are now so I'm very grateful

124
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:13,660
for all the opportunities it's certainly

125
00:06:18,180 --> 00:06:16,090
not ourselves it's many people involved

126
00:06:20,070 --> 00:06:18,190
that actually get us to this point so

127
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:20,080
grateful to my family and all of them as

128
00:06:24,510 --> 00:06:21,370
well

129
00:06:27,300 --> 00:06:24,520
Thanks hello my name is Charlotte Basso

130
00:06:29,310 --> 00:06:27,310
and I go to Watkins Elementary I was

131
00:06:37,860 --> 00:06:29,320
just wondering how do you move around in

132
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:37,870
an antigravity environment hi Charlotte

133
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:39,970
like we were demonstrating before that

134
00:06:43,110 --> 00:06:41,770
is something that you kind of need to

135
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:43,120
learn how to do and you have to learn

136
00:06:46,469 --> 00:06:44,770
quick because as soon as the rockets

137
00:06:48,870 --> 00:06:46,479
engines shut down a few minutes after

138
00:06:50,460 --> 00:06:48,880
launch you're weightless and you don't

139
00:06:53,070 --> 00:06:50,470
have time to learn how to walk you just

140
00:06:54,300 --> 00:06:53,080
have to do it but it takes a little bit

141
00:06:57,029 --> 00:06:54,310
of getting used to but we've been here

142
00:06:59,219 --> 00:06:57,039
for long enough that that that we know

143
00:07:01,950 --> 00:06:59,229
how to move you have to move very slowly

144
00:07:03,060 --> 00:07:01,960
at first and if you push just with a

145
00:07:04,950 --> 00:07:03,070
little bit of force I don't know if you

146
00:07:07,620 --> 00:07:04,960
can see my finger here but I'll put some

147
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:07,630
push on Samantha shoulders and then you

148
00:07:11,969 --> 00:07:09,850
start moving so you have to control how

149
00:07:13,590 --> 00:07:11,979
much pushing and pulling you do

150
00:07:15,270 --> 00:07:13,600
otherwise you'll go flying into the wall

151
00:07:17,700 --> 00:07:15,280
and hit your head on something so you

152
00:07:19,350 --> 00:07:17,710
got to be careful but it's really fun

153
00:07:21,330 --> 00:07:19,360
and it's something that the humans can

154
00:07:23,219 --> 00:07:21,340
really learn how to do and adapt to they

155
00:07:24,779 --> 00:07:23,229
have a question for you guys anybody go

156
00:07:27,029 --> 00:07:24,789
to Maryland schools there I grew up in

157
00:07:28,830 --> 00:07:27,039
Maryland I went to school in Prince

158
00:07:31,529 --> 00:07:28,840
George's County and Columbia Howard

159
00:07:39,180 --> 00:07:31,539
County you got a bunch of hands going up

160
00:07:42,210 --> 00:07:39,190
there Terry what school I went to Fort

161
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:42,220
McHenry Elementary I asked the question

162
00:07:47,460 --> 00:07:44,050
I went to Fort McHenry Elementary in

163
00:07:48,540 --> 00:07:47,470
Lanham and Oakland Mills and Columbia

164
00:07:53,330 --> 00:07:48,550
but I'll let these kids ask some

165
00:08:01,219 --> 00:07:58,350
my question to you is I heard that y'all

166
00:08:09,820 --> 00:08:01,229
a 3d printed a tool how is that going

167
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:12,920
yes we did we had several things that we

168
00:08:18,530 --> 00:08:15,930
printed a 3d printer the 3d printer has

169
00:08:20,390 --> 00:08:18,540
now been stashed away and all of those

170
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:20,400
items that we printed have been bagged

171
00:08:23,780 --> 00:08:22,050
up because we're returning them to earth

172
00:08:25,460 --> 00:08:23,790
they're going to be analyzed because

173
00:08:27,500 --> 00:08:25,470
before they sent that printer up here

174
00:08:29,750 --> 00:08:27,510
they actually printed the same items on

175
00:08:32,450 --> 00:08:29,760
earth that we printed up here except for

176
00:08:34,610 --> 00:08:32,460
one we printed also a ratchet wrench and

177
00:08:40,790 --> 00:08:34,620
but all those things are going back I

178
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:40,800
wish I could show them to you yeah but

179
00:08:44,060 --> 00:08:42,210
yeah the ratchet wench we printed was

180
00:08:45,530 --> 00:08:44,070
similar to this one just fairly small

181
00:08:47,450 --> 00:08:45,540
but a ratchet wrench it was actually

182
00:08:49,660 --> 00:08:47,460
usable you could actually use it they

183
00:08:51,620 --> 00:08:49,670
wouldn't let us use it I wanted to but

184
00:08:53,420 --> 00:08:51,630
anyway those are bagged up and be

185
00:08:54,950 --> 00:08:53,430
heading back on the spacex the Dragon

186
00:08:57,020 --> 00:08:54,960
capsule that'll be heading back I think

187
00:09:00,800 --> 00:08:57,030
around the 10th of February so that's

188
00:09:03,980 --> 00:09:00,810
what those are now hi my name is Robert

189
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:03,990
Golan and I I want to know how is it

190
00:09:17,900 --> 00:09:07,410
like being in a spacesuit in like when

191
00:09:19,940 --> 00:09:17,910
you're outside of your ship Robert that

192
00:09:21,890 --> 00:09:19,950
is a great question what's it like being

193
00:09:23,750 --> 00:09:21,900
in a spacesuit when you're outside of

194
00:09:25,910 --> 00:09:23,760
the ship you know Robert when you get in

195
00:09:28,430 --> 00:09:25,920
one of those space walking suits you

196
00:09:31,010 --> 00:09:28,440
actually get into a spaceship it's a

197
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:31,020
one-man spaceship it's got all the

198
00:09:34,730 --> 00:09:32,850
life-support it's got the oxygen that

199
00:09:36,830 --> 00:09:34,740
you need it's got cooling system that

200
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:36,840
circulates cold water so you can stay

201
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:39,810
cool so you don't get overheated the

202
00:09:42,980 --> 00:09:41,370
only thing it doesn't have inside is

203
00:09:44,810 --> 00:09:42,990
food you have a little we have a little

204
00:09:46,730 --> 00:09:44,820
water bag but we don't have any way to

205
00:09:48,740 --> 00:09:46,740
take food with us so we can only stay

206
00:09:51,380 --> 00:09:48,750
for certain length of time but it's

207
00:09:53,270 --> 00:09:51,390
absolutely fascinating the view through

208
00:09:54,590 --> 00:09:53,280
the visor without having an atmosphere

209
00:09:57,350 --> 00:09:54,600
to look through just the vacuum of space

210
00:09:59,420 --> 00:09:57,360
is so clear and it's just the thought

211
00:10:01,460 --> 00:09:59,430
that when you're outside we never go out

212
00:10:02,750 --> 00:10:01,470
alone we always send two people out but

213
00:10:04,220 --> 00:10:02,760
you think about you're the only two

214
00:10:05,570 --> 00:10:04,230
people in the entire universe that are

215
00:10:09,430 --> 00:10:05,580
doing something like that at that moment

216
00:10:13,430 --> 00:10:09,440
it's a pretty pretty special thing

217
00:10:15,590 --> 00:10:13,440
hi I'm Nandini from the Thomas Jefferson

218
00:10:18,110 --> 00:10:15,600
High School and I was wondering before

219
00:10:20,270 --> 00:10:18,120
you first went out into space what was

220
00:10:28,660 --> 00:10:20,280
the thing that intimidated you the most

221
00:10:33,410 --> 00:10:31,430
well I can tell you that the day that I

222
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:33,420
went on the spacewalk I don't know that

223
00:10:39,860 --> 00:10:36,810
there was a lot of fear but even more so

224
00:10:42,199 --> 00:10:39,870
there was a spacewalk by my two comrades

225
00:10:44,900 --> 00:10:42,209
a commander Wiseman also a navy Navy

226
00:10:47,829 --> 00:10:44,910
commander and Alex Gerst they went out

227
00:10:50,110 --> 00:10:47,839
on a spacewalk about nine days before

228
00:10:53,630 --> 00:10:50,120
Wiseman and myself went out and when I

229
00:10:55,430 --> 00:10:53,640
suited them up and got them ready that

230
00:10:57,350 --> 00:10:55,440
was the most stressful thing that I have

231
00:10:59,000 --> 00:10:57,360
done up here because their lives were

232
00:11:00,800 --> 00:10:59,010
literally in my hands I had to get their

233
00:11:02,930 --> 00:11:00,810
helmets on right I had to get their

234
00:11:04,970 --> 00:11:02,940
maneuvering packs on right I had to make

235
00:11:07,010 --> 00:11:04,980
sure that the depress of the of the

236
00:11:09,650 --> 00:11:07,020
cabin went just according to plan and

237
00:11:11,810 --> 00:11:09,660
that was actually much much more of a

238
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:11,820
stress because it wasn't my life that

239
00:11:17,380 --> 00:11:14,490
was in at stake it was it veilleux's and

240
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:17,390
that's something that's a very very

241
00:11:21,500 --> 00:11:20,370
detailed process getting someone out the

242
00:11:23,210 --> 00:11:21,510
door you know you think when you open

243
00:11:25,579 --> 00:11:23,220
the hatch the first time and you go

244
00:11:28,070 --> 00:11:25,589
outside you've already been in the suit

245
00:11:30,170 --> 00:11:28,080
for five hours almost five hours even

246
00:11:31,699 --> 00:11:30,180
before you open the hatch and the person

247
00:11:33,170 --> 00:11:31,709
that's doing the most work is the one

248
00:11:35,210 --> 00:11:33,180
that's getting you ready to go out and

249
00:11:36,620 --> 00:11:35,220
the next spacewalk if it goes as planned

250
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:36,630
colonel verts and I are going to go out

251
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:38,250
and Samantha is going to have that task

252
00:11:42,730 --> 00:11:39,930
and I tell you what I don't envy her

253
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:42,740
because it is a very detailed very

254
00:11:55,820 --> 00:11:53,660
hello I'm Kelton and what was this a job

255
00:11:58,490 --> 00:11:55,830
you want ever since you were kid or as

256
00:12:09,009 --> 00:11:58,500
you got orders it was this something you

257
00:12:13,939 --> 00:12:11,689
hey that's a great question thanks

258
00:12:15,919 --> 00:12:13,949
actually when I was very young in

259
00:12:18,350 --> 00:12:15,929
elementary school still I don't think I

260
00:12:20,900 --> 00:12:18,360
was eight years old yet

261
00:12:22,639 --> 00:12:20,910
I already told people adults and

262
00:12:24,470 --> 00:12:22,649
teachers that when I grew up I wanted to

263
00:12:26,479 --> 00:12:24,480
go to space and of course I didn't have

264
00:12:29,059 --> 00:12:26,489
an exact idea what it means to be an

265
00:12:32,359 --> 00:12:29,069
astronaut back then but as I grew up and

266
00:12:34,369 --> 00:12:32,369
I had a better idea this thought of

267
00:12:36,470 --> 00:12:34,379
becoming an astronaut and going to space

268
00:12:38,689 --> 00:12:36,480
actually attracted me more and more and

269
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:38,699
then I was fortunate enough that growing

270
00:12:43,489 --> 00:12:41,730
up I developed mature interests for for

271
00:12:45,319 --> 00:12:43,499
science and technology and for flying

272
00:12:48,229 --> 00:12:45,329
and and guess what those are the things

273
00:12:50,419 --> 00:12:48,239
that can lead you to become an astronaut

274
00:12:53,780 --> 00:12:50,429
so it all came together wonderfully for

275
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:53,790
me and you know it's just the best thing

276
00:13:00,309 --> 00:12:55,410
that I could possibly imagine doing so

277
00:13:03,199 --> 00:13:00,319
I'm very very happy my name is Nicole

278
00:13:04,460 --> 00:13:03,209
Fogle and what do you think the first

279
00:13:16,100 --> 00:13:04,470
thing you're gonna do when you get back

280
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:16,110
to earth well that's that's a good

281
00:13:19,639 --> 00:13:17,850
question Samantha and I are gonna land

282
00:13:22,689 --> 00:13:19,649
together in the same Soyuz along with

283
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:22,699
our Russian friend anton shkaplerov and

284
00:13:26,629 --> 00:13:24,569
samantha I are gonna get on an airplane

285
00:13:28,489 --> 00:13:26,639
with a NASA crew of folks and we're

286
00:13:29,539 --> 00:13:28,499
gonna come directly back to Houston but

287
00:13:31,340 --> 00:13:29,549
I think one of the first things that

288
00:13:33,019 --> 00:13:31,350
that I'll probably want to do is get a

289
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:33,029
shower when we finally get to shower

290
00:13:38,629 --> 00:13:35,970
there's no showers up here although we

291
00:13:40,100 --> 00:13:38,639
have towels and basically you take a hot

292
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:40,110
water put it in the towel and that's

293
00:13:43,039 --> 00:13:41,610
kind of your shower for six months and

294
00:13:44,329 --> 00:13:43,049
it's actually pretty good we can say

295
00:13:46,539 --> 00:13:44,339
pretty clean and stuff but that's that's

296
00:13:48,739 --> 00:13:46,549
one thing I'm looking forward to doing

297
00:13:50,119 --> 00:13:48,749
hey butch has a demo here he's gonna

298
00:13:52,669 --> 00:13:50,129
show you a little bit of physics in

299
00:13:54,470 --> 00:13:52,679
space yeah I want to show you all this

300
00:13:56,449 --> 00:13:54,480
this this is just an iPad y'all can

301
00:13:59,059 --> 00:13:56,459
y'all very familiar with this notice how

302
00:14:01,220 --> 00:13:59,069
it's almost twice as wide as it is that

303
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:01,230
long or twice as long as it is wide so

304
00:14:04,100 --> 00:14:02,730
because of that because of the momentum

305
00:14:06,590 --> 00:14:04,110
and how that what the hell that affects

306
00:14:10,009 --> 00:14:06,600
it if I flip it just right it will flip

307
00:14:11,479 --> 00:14:10,019
twice and then it will roll the next

308
00:14:26,380 --> 00:14:11,489
time and it'll keep doing that so let's

309
00:14:31,010 --> 00:14:29,630
there goes the there goes the roll it

310
00:14:33,650 --> 00:14:31,020
flips a couple times and then it rolls

311
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:33,660
over so when you guys take physics class

312
00:14:37,850 --> 00:14:35,490
your your physics instructors can

313
00:14:39,140 --> 00:14:37,860
explain mass moments of inertia and it's

314
00:14:47,350 --> 00:14:39,150
cool being in space because you can

315
00:14:53,930 --> 00:14:50,530
hello my name is Josiah Murphy from

316
00:14:56,030 --> 00:14:53,940
Cardozo education campus and I was

317
00:14:57,830 --> 00:14:56,040
wondering what kind of work or

318
00:15:05,570 --> 00:14:57,840
researcher are you three doing currently

319
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:05,580
up in space well it's actually been

320
00:15:09,500 --> 00:15:07,410
really interesting we just had this

321
00:15:11,900 --> 00:15:09,510
cargo vehicle arrived with a lot of

322
00:15:13,370 --> 00:15:11,910
science on board and so we've all been

323
00:15:16,700 --> 00:15:13,380
busy all day every day even on the

324
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:16,710
weekends we were doing science I'm doing

325
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:18,450
a material science right now where

326
00:15:23,660 --> 00:15:20,970
they're measuring how materials as they

327
00:15:26,930 --> 00:15:23,670
cool how they become coarse and how the

328
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:26,940
molecules inside these melted liquids as

329
00:15:31,370 --> 00:15:29,610
they as they solidify how they change we

330
00:15:33,260 --> 00:15:31,380
have a plant experiment in the Columbus

331
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:33,270
module in the European module down the

332
00:15:36,620 --> 00:15:35,010
way there that's really cool it's got

333
00:15:37,610 --> 00:15:36,630
this big pink light so at night time

334
00:15:40,070 --> 00:15:37,620
when you turn all the lights off the

335
00:15:41,540 --> 00:15:40,080
whole station is glowing pink and we

336
00:15:44,060 --> 00:15:41,550
grew some plants I think today butch

337
00:15:45,730 --> 00:15:44,070
harvested some plants samantha was

338
00:15:48,740 --> 00:15:45,740
working with fruit flies we had a

339
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:48,750
experiment of fruit flies this past

340
00:15:54,530 --> 00:15:51,330
weekend I was taking these back these

341
00:15:58,670 --> 00:15:54,540
little worms called C elegans and we fed

342
00:16:01,280 --> 00:15:58,680
them some bacteria Salmonella and e-coli

343
00:16:03,290 --> 00:16:01,290
so they were happy at first to eat them

344
00:16:05,180 --> 00:16:03,300
but these are obviously things that make

345
00:16:07,670 --> 00:16:05,190
you sick so there are studying how the

346
00:16:09,860 --> 00:16:07,680
immune system on the worms are affected

347
00:16:12,170 --> 00:16:09,870
by the disease and hopefully that can

348
00:16:13,820 --> 00:16:12,180
help us out on earth so the last few

349
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:13,830
days has been a lot of different science

350
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:14,850
that we've been doing it's been pretty

351
00:16:25,340 --> 00:16:21,930
interesting my name is Liliana Scott and

352
00:16:28,430 --> 00:16:25,350
I am home-schooled and my question is

353
00:16:39,710 --> 00:16:28,440
what do you do for fun to pass time in

354
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:43,579
I think most of us really enjoy taking

355
00:16:48,619 --> 00:16:46,290
pictures spending time in the cupola

356
00:16:51,679 --> 00:16:48,629
this is this magnificent window on the

357
00:16:53,569 --> 00:16:51,689
earth we have the we see the earth from

358
00:16:55,910 --> 00:16:53,579
Horizon to horizon so we actually see

359
00:16:57,259 --> 00:16:55,920
very well the curvature of the earth and

360
00:16:59,960 --> 00:16:57,269
of course we can also see the skies

361
00:17:02,809 --> 00:16:59,970
above the horizon for example yesterday

362
00:17:05,210 --> 00:17:02,819
Terry and I were hunting for a comment

363
00:17:07,699 --> 00:17:05,220
Lovejoy which is visible from Earth as

364
00:17:09,289 --> 00:17:07,709
well I think it will still be visible

365
00:17:11,329 --> 00:17:09,299
for a few weeks so you can come and hunt

366
00:17:14,620 --> 00:17:11,339
for the comment yourself so we enjoy

367
00:17:18,110 --> 00:17:14,630
doing that last night I enjoy immensely

368
00:17:20,090 --> 00:17:18,120
finding places on earth that maybe have

369
00:17:22,069 --> 00:17:20,100
a special significance or that just

370
00:17:24,590 --> 00:17:22,079
speak to me because of that geography

371
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:24,600
and they're so interesting or you know

372
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:26,610
most of the time is just an incredible

373
00:17:30,830 --> 00:17:28,650
beauty I mean it's it's an ever change

374
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:30,840
ever changing colors and shapes and

375
00:17:37,250 --> 00:17:33,570
place of shade and light and the Sun

376
00:17:39,260 --> 00:17:37,260
glint and clouds and you know a desert

377
00:17:42,380 --> 00:17:39,270
and ocean and mountains and Plains and

378
00:17:44,270 --> 00:17:42,390
snow it's just an incredible infinite

379
00:17:46,279 --> 00:17:44,280
variety that no artist could possibly

380
00:17:49,779 --> 00:17:46,289
come up with and it's just very very

381
00:17:55,330 --> 00:17:49,789
beautiful what are you doing there Terry

382
00:17:58,039 --> 00:17:55,340
you and what's what you doing actually

383
00:17:59,360 --> 00:17:58,049
he said he could see you guys he's sure

384
00:18:01,299 --> 00:17:59,370
he's showing him one of the cameras we

385
00:18:03,860 --> 00:18:01,309
use for taking pictures of the earth and

386
00:18:05,270 --> 00:18:03,870
recently the lab window has been free

387
00:18:06,770 --> 00:18:05,280
we've been able to take pictures in here

388
00:18:08,630 --> 00:18:06,780
normally it's got a payload in there but

389
00:18:10,070 --> 00:18:08,640
so we've got these big giant they're

390
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:10,080
almost telescopes here taking pictures

391
00:18:17,450 --> 00:18:15,210
of the earth my name is Katie Quinn and

392
00:18:29,250 --> 00:18:17,460
I was wondering what's the coolest thing

393
00:18:34,890 --> 00:18:33,300
you know Katie man that is hard to pick

394
00:18:36,540 --> 00:18:34,900
the number one thing because so many

395
00:18:38,310 --> 00:18:36,550
things are cool and every day it's like

396
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:38,320
I can't believe I'm seeing this you've

397
00:18:42,020 --> 00:18:39,850
seen creation from the heavens it's

398
00:18:44,220 --> 00:18:42,030
awesome but for me I think Aurora's

399
00:18:45,540 --> 00:18:44,230
being from Maryland we don't see a lot

400
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:45,550
of Aurora's down there around the

401
00:18:49,410 --> 00:18:48,010
nation's capital and the view you get

402
00:18:50,850 --> 00:18:49,420
from here is amazing you can see them

403
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:50,860
with the naked eye when you see pictures

404
00:18:56,070 --> 00:18:53,050
of them they're even more magnified but

405
00:18:58,470 --> 00:18:56,080
that that is a pretty amazing thing hey

00:18:59,790 --> 00:18:58,480
