00:25:44,789 --> 00:25:42,159 on the station without 438 00:25:46,870 --> 00:25:44,799 special training they are basically 439 00:25:48,870 --> 00:25:46,880 paying attention mostly to 440 00:25:50,950 --> 00:25:48,880 utilization their life support 441 00:25:52,230 --> 00:25:50,960 scientific experiment and station 442 00:25:54,390 --> 00:25:52,240 support 443 00:25:56,789 --> 00:25:54,400 they are busy with their own experiments 444 00:25:59,430 --> 00:25:56,799 and they do not have any time for soyuz 445 00:26:03,669 --> 00:26:01,510 that is why i expect that most likely 446 00:26:07,750 --> 00:26:03,679 will have some additional training on 447 00:26:12,470 --> 00:26:07,760 soyuz operations right before return 448 00:26:16,070 --> 00:26:14,310 for 449 00:26:18,070 --> 00:26:16,080 undyking and food return some more 450 00:26:20,789 --> 00:26:18,080 additional trainings are expected to be 451 00:26:23,510 --> 00:26:20,799 performed before our return training 452 00:26:27,830 --> 00:26:23,520 some soyuz re-entry especially and 453 00:26:32,710 --> 00:26:30,630 i think everything will go well 454 00:26:34,870 --> 00:26:32,720 because scott and misha 455 00:26:37,190 --> 00:26:34,880 and 456 00:26:39,269 --> 00:26:37,200 us we have been training as one group we 457 00:26:41,350 --> 00:26:39,279 have mutual understanding i think it 458 00:26:44,230 --> 00:26:41,360 will work fine because we've been 459 00:26:47,269 --> 00:26:44,240 trained together and with a good crew 460 00:26:58,630 --> 00:26:47,279 and we had a good team work and i think 461 00:27:03,430 --> 00:27:00,710 i would like to ask the danish astronaut 462 00:27:05,029 --> 00:27:03,440 andreas monson to explain 463 00:27:06,950 --> 00:27:05,039 how you're going to prepare for the 464 00:27:08,549 --> 00:27:06,960 launch for the next couple next hours 465 00:27:10,630 --> 00:27:08,559 until the launch 466 00:27:13,510 --> 00:27:10,640 and also mentally how are you going to 467 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:18,470 again 468 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,830 foreign 469 00:27:25,350 --> 00:27:23,750 well there's uh to be honest not a lot 470 00:27:27,029 --> 00:27:25,360 of time left now 471 00:27:29,029 --> 00:27:27,039 after this press conference we'll have 472 00:27:30,789 --> 00:27:29,039 some time to spend 473 00:27:32,789 --> 00:27:30,799 with our family and friends 474 00:27:34,870 --> 00:27:32,799 and then already at 475 00:27:38,310 --> 00:27:34,880 5 30 pm this afternoon we'll be going to 476 00:27:41,510 --> 00:27:38,320 bed and to get ready to get up at uh 1 477 00:27:43,190 --> 00:27:41,520 30 in the morning to prepare for well to 478 00:27:44,310 --> 00:27:43,200 start our final preparations which is 479 00:27:46,470 --> 00:27:44,320 basically 480 00:27:47,990 --> 00:27:46,480 uh dressing doing some vinyl medical 481 00:27:50,149 --> 00:27:48,000 checks and then putting on the spacesuit 482 00:27:52,149 --> 00:27:50,159 and going out to the launch pad so for 483 00:27:54,070 --> 00:27:52,159 the most part 484 00:27:55,669 --> 00:27:54,080 our preparations are done the 485 00:27:57,510 --> 00:27:55,679 state commission has given the green 486 00:27:59,909 --> 00:27:57,520 light for us to launch and all that's 487 00:28:13,269 --> 00:27:59,919 left for us now is to say goodbye to our 488 00:28:13,279 --> 00:28:54,549 um 489 00:28:58,630 --> 00:28:56,630 good luck to all of you to make sure 490 00:29:02,630 --> 00:28:58,640 everything goes as planned andrea is the 491 00:29:06,950 --> 00:29:05,029 for you that will be the first flight 492 00:29:09,510 --> 00:29:06,960 and for your country as well 493 00:29:11,110 --> 00:29:09,520 probably when uh you were a kid you had 494 00:29:13,909 --> 00:29:11,120 no idea it's going to happen why did you 495 00:29:15,750 --> 00:29:13,919 become a cousin why and how difficult 496 00:29:19,110 --> 00:29:15,760 was it become the first cosmonaut for 497 00:29:25,590 --> 00:29:21,750 you can speak in russian 498 00:29:27,110 --> 00:29:25,600 i think i'll speak english better 499 00:29:29,110 --> 00:29:27,120 it was always a dream of mine to become 500 00:29:31,029 --> 00:29:29,120 an astronaut so i'm 501 00:29:32,630 --> 00:29:31,039 very very excited to finally be here 502 00:29:36,389 --> 00:29:32,640 after so many years 503 00:29:38,389 --> 00:29:36,399 ready to launch in less than 20 24 hours 504 00:29:40,470 --> 00:29:38,399 of course it's uh 505 00:29:42,070 --> 00:29:40,480 it's extra special when when you're the 506 00:29:43,669 --> 00:29:42,080 first not 507 00:29:45,430 --> 00:29:43,679 so much because it was part of the dream 508 00:29:48,630 --> 00:29:45,440 but simply because this is a unique 509 00:29:49,750 --> 00:29:48,640 opportunity for me to uh 510 00:29:51,269 --> 00:29:49,760 bring more attention to the 511 00:29:53,590 --> 00:29:51,279 international space station program and 512 00:29:55,350 --> 00:29:53,600 all of the important science and 513 00:29:57,190 --> 00:29:55,360 exploration activities that we do 514 00:29:58,789 --> 00:29:57,200 onboard the space station so i'm going 515 00:30:01,350 --> 00:29:58,799 to use this 516 00:30:03,510 --> 00:30:01,360 flight to the best of my abilities to 517 00:30:05,590 --> 00:30:03,520 not only 518 00:30:07,830 --> 00:30:05,600 bring awareness in denmark but all of 519 00:30:09,430 --> 00:30:07,840 europe hopefully to my mission and the 520 00:30:20,789 --> 00:30:09,440 important research that we do onboard 521 00:30:20,799 --> 00:30:48,630 cosmos 522 00:30:53,669 --> 00:30:50,789 space center i have a question to all 523 00:30:56,310 --> 00:30:53,679 cosmonauts your flight is going to be 524 00:31:00,389 --> 00:30:56,320 within the framework of the one year 525 00:31:01,909 --> 00:31:00,399 flight sergey and alex will have a 526 00:31:04,789 --> 00:31:01,919 joint 527 00:31:06,470 --> 00:31:04,799 experiment it's called mars and i want 528 00:31:08,070 --> 00:31:06,480 how are 529 00:31:15,990 --> 00:31:08,080 you 530 00:31:20,549 --> 00:31:16,789 that 531 00:31:22,710 --> 00:31:20,559 is a difficult question in fact 532 00:31:25,830 --> 00:31:22,720 because 533 00:31:27,830 --> 00:31:25,840 probably thinking about even 534 00:31:29,430 --> 00:31:27,840 future programs is 535 00:31:34,149 --> 00:31:29,440 good but it's 536 00:31:38,870 --> 00:31:35,029 to 537 00:31:40,389 --> 00:31:38,880 imagine whether it is realistic or not 538 00:31:43,029 --> 00:31:40,399 actually i'm thinking about what is 539 00:31:45,830 --> 00:31:43,039 going to happen 540 00:31:47,909 --> 00:31:45,840 just now what is 541 00:31:50,470 --> 00:31:47,919 going to happen i'm talking about the 542 00:31:52,549 --> 00:31:50,480 upcoming flight but i understand that 543 00:31:55,110 --> 00:31:52,559 the program is expanding 544 00:31:56,950 --> 00:31:55,120 and maybe in a few years we will be able 545 00:31:58,630 --> 00:31:56,960 to fly to mars but right now i would 546 00:32:00,549 --> 00:31:58,640 like to concentrate 547 00:32:02,870 --> 00:32:00,559 on a task at hand 548 00:32:06,710 --> 00:32:02,880 that drive right now this is just a 549 00:32:09,430 --> 00:32:06,720 dream for me to fly to mars i think 550 00:32:11,190 --> 00:32:09,440 my ask next question 551 00:32:13,190 --> 00:32:11,200 i think 552 00:32:15,110 --> 00:32:13,200 there's a lot of truth to what sergey 553 00:32:16,870 --> 00:32:15,120 said especially 554 00:32:18,950 --> 00:32:16,880 for us i mean we can obviously dream 555 00:32:22,070 --> 00:32:18,960 about the future but at least for the 556 00:32:25,350 --> 00:32:22,080 next 10 hopefully maybe more years the 557 00:32:27,430 --> 00:32:25,360 space station will still be 558 00:32:28,710 --> 00:32:27,440 our prime focus 559 00:32:30,470 --> 00:32:28,720 there's still a lot of very very 560 00:32:31,990 --> 00:32:30,480 interesting science and research to be 561 00:32:33,990 --> 00:32:32,000 done on the space station and that's 562 00:32:36,470 --> 00:32:34,000 what we're concentrating on but at the 563 00:32:39,269 --> 00:32:36,480 same time it's also necessary for for us 564 00:32:41,909 --> 00:32:39,279 and our space agencies to begin to 565 00:32:44,230 --> 00:32:41,919 to look to the future and begin to plan 566 00:32:46,389 --> 00:32:44,240 for what will follow the space station 567 00:32:48,149 --> 00:32:46,399 and that's what partly makes me very 568 00:32:51,190 --> 00:32:48,159 very excited to be an astronaut today 569 00:32:53,669 --> 00:32:51,200 because i i fully believe that that we 570 00:32:56,389 --> 00:32:53,679 will have a very interesting program of 571 00:32:58,389 --> 00:32:56,399 exploration after the iss has 572 00:32:59,990 --> 00:32:58,399 has finished whether or not it's a 573 00:33:02,789 --> 00:33:00,000 return to the moon or further 574 00:33:05,350 --> 00:33:02,799 exploration into deeper space to mars or 575 00:33:06,070 --> 00:33:05,360 to to asteroids so i think we have a lot 576 00:33:07,909 --> 00:33:06,080 of 577 00:33:21,909 --> 00:33:07,919 things to look forward to in the in the 578 00:33:21,919 --> 00:34:04,389 still 579 00:34:09,510 --> 00:34:07,430 a question to mr ambed 580 00:34:12,310 --> 00:34:09,520 first of all this is your first uh 581 00:34:14,310 --> 00:34:12,320 flight what will you take as a souvenir 582 00:34:17,270 --> 00:34:14,320 with you 583 00:34:19,669 --> 00:34:17,280 and is it really so that tereshkova is 584 00:34:23,030 --> 00:34:19,679 your second 585 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:26,869 our flight 586 00:34:29,270 --> 00:34:28,310 is happening 587 00:34:34,669 --> 00:34:29,280 at this 588 00:34:39,750 --> 00:34:37,430 550 years of 589 00:34:43,109 --> 00:34:39,760 kazakh statehood 590 00:34:44,389 --> 00:34:43,119 is going to be celebrated 591 00:34:47,589 --> 00:34:44,399 also 592 00:34:50,389 --> 00:34:47,599 a constitution is 593 00:34:52,950 --> 00:34:50,399 going to uh 594

that there will be time when kazakh 601 00:35:19,750 --> 00:35:18,320 symbols and the statehood the gadgets 602 00:35:22,390 --> 00:35:19,760 are going to be in orbit and this is 603 00:35:24,310 --> 00:35:22,400 what i'm going to bring 604 00:35:25,670 --> 00:35:24,320 so 605 00:35:27,109 --> 00:35:25,680 my 606 00:35:30,069 --> 00:35:27,119 uh 607 00:35:34,310 --> 00:35:30,079 younger daughter

first flight so 614 00:35:52,950 --> 00:35:51,359 uh that's why i think 615 00:35:54,550 --> 00:35:52,960 it is a true statement 616 00:35:57,349 --> 00:35:54,560 report with danish television tv to

the second question 649 00:37:54,710 --> 00:37:52,000 who and what helped you 650 00:37:57,829 --> 00:37:54,720 uh to realize that and 651 00:37:59,510 --> 00:37:57,839 the last question have you always been 652 00:38:01,670 --> 00:37:59,520 an a student 653 00:38:02,950 --> 00:38:01,680 uh i was wondering whether when you were 654 00:38:07,349 --> 00:38:02,960 at school 655 00:38:07,359 --> 00:38:10,710 to become a cosmonaut 656 00:38:18,470 --> 00:38:14,710 childhood dream i will tell you a story 657 00:38:20,790 --> 00:38:18,480 my dad and i were working in the field 658 00:38:26,069 --> 00:38:20,800 we were working the hay 659 00:38:31,270 --> 00:38:28,790 stars in the sky after the long day of 660 00:38:37,990 --> 00:38:33,990 and i was wondering what it is 661 00:38:39,990 --> 00:38:38,000 what was blinking in the sky i was 662 00:38:42,310 --> 00:38:40,000 interested in that my dad was telling me 663 00:38:44,230 --> 00:38:42,320 about it i was thinking about the sky i 664 00:38:48,630 --> 00:38:44,240 was thinking about what's going on there 665 00:38:51,589 --> 00:38:48,640 and it's kind of slowly i graduated into 666 00:38:54,230 --> 00:38:51,599 thinking about becoming a cosmetic i was 667 00:38:56,230 --> 00:38:54,240 always good at sports i was a good 668 00:38:58,829 --> 00:38:56,240 student i 669 00:39:06,470 --> 00:39:02,710 was a student at the 670 00:39:09,030 --> 00:39:06,480 pilot school military pilot school 671 00:39:10,710 --> 00:39:09,040 and i was an a student yes 672 00:39:12,870 --> 00:39:10,720 sometimes 673 00:39:15,750 --> 00:39:12,880 my kids and i would 674 00:39:17,270 --> 00:39:15,760 be just excited about something else and 675 00:39:21,109 --> 00:39:17,280 once 676 00:39:22,870 --> 00:39:21,119 i was even reprimanded by the group of 677 00:39:26,310 --> 00:39:22,880 teachers for 678 00:39:27,990 --> 00:39:26,320 not doing as good as i was supposed to 679 00:39:30,950 --> 00:39:28,000 anyway it was mostly about my behavior 680 00:39:37,430 --> 00:39:30,960 not about my academic studies but i was 681 00:39:42,710 --> 00:39:40,230 school for young cosmonauts 682 00:39:45,910 --> 00:39:42,720 do you have 683 00:39:48,150 --> 00:39:45,920 a lot of kids who have really this 684 00:39:49,829 --> 00:39:48,160 opportunity to become a cosmonaut for 685 00:39:54,230 --> 00:39:49,839 the 686 00:39:59,270 --> 00:39:56,870 to dedicate 687 00:40:01,270 --> 00:39:59,280 to this school of young cosmonauts that 688 00:40:05,109 --> 00:40:01,280 was a very popular 689 00:40:07,510 --> 00:40:05,119 entity over 545 690 00:40:10,710 --> 00:40:07,520 kids has been signed up and they are 691 00:40:11,589 --> 00:40:10,720 very interested in 692 00:40:14,390 --> 00:40:11,599 this 693 00:40:18,309 --> 00:40:14,400 even in the first grades uh the kids 694 00:40:19,829 --> 00:40:18,319 have a lot of knowledge already in 695 00:40:21,910 --> 00:40:19,839 about the universe about the solar 696 00:40:22,710 --> 00:40:21,920 system about the stars 697 00:40:25,750 --> 00:40:22,720 and 698 00:40:28,630 --> 00:40:25,760 yes i hope i hope many of them will 699 00:40:30,630 --> 00:40:28,640 be successful 700 00:40:33,190 --> 00:40:30,640 i thought about it 701 00:40:34,230 --> 00:40:33,200 a lot and 702 00:40:38,630 --> 00:40:34,240 i was 703 00:40:43,829 --> 00:40:41,190 first grade so the middle school kids 704 00:40:44,710 --> 00:40:43,839 will need to be involved already and 705 00:40:47,630 --> 00:40:44,720 that's 706 00:40:51,030 --> 00:40:47,640 actually i got my pedagogical 707 00:40:53,030 --> 00:40:51,040 education uh to 708 00:40:54,950 --> 00:40:53,040 have this opportunity to teach the kids 709 00:40:56,790 --> 00:40:54,960 and this is what i was doing now from 710 00:40:58,790 --> 00:40:56,800 task agency 711 00:41:01,349 --> 00:40:58,800 a question 712 00:41:04,829 --> 00:41:01,359 about the utilization program what 713 00:41:06,069 --> 00:41:04,839 experiments this is the question for 714 00:41:08,470 --> 00:41:06,079 all uh 715 00:41:09,430 --> 00:41:08,480 members of the main crew 716 00:41:12,470 --> 00:41:09,440 which 717 00:41:15,430 --> 00:41:12,480 all the experiments are most interesting 718 00:41:17,910 --> 00:41:15,440 for you and how uh 719 00:41:22,069 --> 00:41:17,920 how extensive this utilization program 720 00:41:27,470 --> 00:41:24,710 since we have two phases in this flight 721 00:41:30,390 --> 00:41:27,480 we have the joint 722 00:41:33,670 --> 00:41:30,400 45-46 and 723 00:41:36,710 --> 00:41:33,680 visiting crew expedition 18 during the 724 00:41:39,589 --> 00:41:38,390 we will 725 00:41:41,829 --> 00:41:39,599 be working 726 00:41:43,670 --> 00:41:41,839 russian european experiments mostly with 727 00:41:46,309 --> 00:41:43,680 together andreas 728 00:41:48,230 --> 00:41:46,319 and we will also have russian kazakh 729 00:41:50,550 --> 00:41:48,240 experiments 730 00:41:55,349 --> 00:41:50,560 and there will also be stand-alone 731 00:42:00,309 --> 00:41:56,710 the main 732 00:42:05,990 --> 00:42:00,319 participants are andres and alden 733 00:42:10,309 --> 00:42:09,030 experiment and this is experiment from 734 00:42:13,030 --> 00:42:10,319 the european 735 00:42:14,790 --> 00:42:13,040 agency was specially designed for this 736 00:42:25,670 --> 00:42:14,800 expedition 737 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:42,790 uh 738 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:53,030 it's 739 00:42:56,309 --> 00:42:55,030 probably fluid shift is the most 740 00:42:59,829 --> 00:42:56,319 interesting 741 00:43:01,990 --> 00:42:59,839 mikhail and scott are working on those 742 00:43:04,470 --> 00:43:02,000 well participating in this experiment as 743 00:43:07,109 --> 00:43:05,510 and 744 00:43:09,589 --> 00:43:07,119 there is a comparison going on with the 745 00:43:15,430 --> 00:43:09,599 results of the half a year 746 00:43:21,990 --> 00:43:19,270 most favorable for a preparation of the 747 00:43:24,390 --> 00:43:22,000 crew members for return 748 00:43:28,230 --> 00:43:24,400 so thinking about the long duration 749 00:43:30,069 --> 00:43:28,240 flights we are not going to have 750 00:43:32,069 --> 00:43:30,079 uh rescue 751 00:43:33,829 --> 00:43:32,079 crews waiting for us on the marsh 752 00:43:36,710 --> 00:43:33,839 surface right so that's why we'll have 753 00:43:39,670 --> 00:43:36,720 to prepare all of that 754 00:43:42,309 --> 00:43:39,680 also other experiments are taking place 755 00:43:47,430 --> 00:43:45,349 the research of the earth we know that 756 00:43:49,349 --> 00:43:47,440 we have a lot of fires a lot of 757 00:43:51,349 --> 00:43:49,359 floodings and all this kind of things 758 00:43:54,390 --> 00:43:51,359 i'm not going to talk about the latest 759 00:43:58,230 --> 00:43:54,400 news but we are trying to assist as much 760 00:44:00,150 --> 00:43:58,240 as possible from orbit 761 00:44:02,950 --> 00:44:00,160 we are 762 00:44:05,430 --> 00:44:02,960 working together with the organizations 763 00:44:06,630 --> 00:44:05,440 that are studying these events 764 00:44:08,710 --> 00:44:06,640 and 765 00:44:10,550 --> 00:44:08,720 are trying to help as much as we can 766 00:44:14,150 --> 00:44:10,560 also medical experiments are taking 767 00:44:18,870 --> 00:44:14,160 place all together for 45 46 expedition 768 00:44:20,870 --> 00:44:18,880 we have 75 experiments all together 769 00:44:22,710 --> 00:44:20,880 maybe andreas will say a few words what 770 00:44:25,990 --> 00:44:22,720 is most interesting for you 771 00:44:29,109 --> 00:44:26,790 what 772 00:44:31,109 --> 00:44:29,119 concerns the earth is interesting for me 773 00:44:34,870 --> 00:44:31,119 because that gives you an opportunity to 774 00:44:37,910 --> 00:44:34,880 watch the earth and also participate in 775 00:44:40,790 --> 00:44:37,920 experiments on studying some you know 776 00:44:44,470 --> 00:44:40,800 plasma crystal for example a column 777 00:44:48,150 --> 00:44:46,309 but this is just 778 00:44:51,589 --> 00:44:48,160 hard work all of it 779 00:44:52,950 --> 00:44:51,599 well sergio already mentioned one of the 780 00:44:54,790 --> 00:44:52,960 bigger more important experiments that 781 00:44:57,030 --> 00:44:54,800 we'll be completing together called mars 782 00:44:58,550 --> 00:44:57,040 which is focusing on muscle atrophy 783 00:45:01,430 --> 00:44:58,560 research in space 784 00:45:02,950 --> 00:45:01,440 and perhaps this is also maybe why i 785 00:45:04,950 --> 00:45:02,960 look a little bit more tired today than 786 00:45:06,950 --> 00:45:04,960 usual because i had to get up earlier 787 00:45:09,030 --> 00:45:06,960 simply in preparation for this 788 00:45:11,109 --> 00:45:09,040 experiment because as you know a lot of 789 00:45:13,750 --> 00:45:11,119 things in space are more difficult than 790 00:45:16,150 --> 00:45:13,760 here on earth so i decided to 791 00:45:18,390 --> 00:45:16,160 shave my entire right leg this morning 792 00:45:20,870 --> 00:45:18,400 it took a lot of time in the shower 793 00:45:23,270 --> 00:45:20,880 since i'm not used to doing that 794 00:45:24,870 --> 00:45:23,280 but it's basically an anticipation of 795 00:45:26,630 --> 00:45:24,880 mars where i'll be 796 00:45:29,109 --> 00:45:26,640 putting electrodes while sergei will be 797 00:45:31,270 --> 00:45:29,119 putting electrodes on my leg in order to 798 00:45:34,630 --> 00:45:31,280 stimulate my muscles in order to 799 00:45:37,589 --> 00:45:34,640 determine my muscle strength in space so 800 00:45:38,630 --> 00:45:37,599 it's a very very interesting experiment 801 00:45:40,150 --> 00:45:38,640 which 802 00:45:42,470 --> 00:45:40,160 also involves a little bit of sacrifice 803 00:45:45,030 --> 00:45:42,480 on my part right now i have a 804 00:45:50,150 --> 00:45:45,040 one normal leg and one completely shaved 805 00:45:54,390 --> 00:45:51,829 apart from that i have a very full 806 00:45:55,589 --> 00:45:54,400 program of experiments including several 807 00:45:58,069 --> 00:45:55,599 danish experiments that are very 808 00:46:00,390 --> 00:45:58,079 exciting in particular i'll be trying to 809 00:46:02,230 --> 00:46:00,400 take photos of the gigantic 810 00:46:03,910 --> 00:46:02,240 lightning strikes that 811 00:46:06,069 --> 00:46:03,920 start from the top of thunder clouds and 812 00:46:08,069 --> 00:46:06,079 then continue all the way up into space 813 00:46:09,270 --> 00:46:08,079 to an altitude of about 80 90 kilometers 814 00:46:12,230 --> 00:46:09,280 so hopefully with a little bit of luck 815 00:46:13,990 --> 00:46:12,240 i'll be able to get some fantastic 816 00:46:15,750 --> 00:46:14,000 pictures of these gigantic lightning 817 00:46:26,390 --> 00:46:15,760 strikes and help us understand what 818 00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:54,790 uh 819 00:47:41,990 --> 00:47:36,950 m 820 00:47:44,150 --> 00:47:42,000 question for you 821 00:47:46,390 -->

on my uh previous experiments i 836 00:48:31,670 --> 00:48:29,440 volunteered to sleep at airlock just 837 00:48:34,630 --> 00:48:31,680 because i know how i can set myself over 838 00:48:39,109 --> 00:48:34,640 there scott and i already discussed that 839 00:48:45,910 --> 00:48:42,950 just like other european ex 840 00:48:50,150 --> 00:48:45,920 astronauts would sleep either in 841 00:48:53,829 --> 00:48:50,160 columbus or european or japanese module 842 00:48:54,790 --> 00:48:53,839 we'll figure out we'll figure it out 843 00:48:55,990 --> 00:48:54,800 we have 844 00:48:59,349 --> 00:48:56,000 good 845 00:49:01,990 --> 00:48:59,359 locations for sleeping 846 00:49:04,470 --> 00:49:02,000 the russian segment may be you know if 847 00:49:06,710 --> 00:49:04,480 he wants to sleep on the ceiling we can 848 00:49:10,150 --> 00:49:06,720 probably find that as well 849 00:49:12,470 --> 00:49:10,160 maybe number one or mrm ii 850 00:49:15,030 --> 00:49:12,480 or maybe somewhere even on the u.s 851 00:49:20,309 --> 00:49:15,040 segment all of that has been already 852 00:49:20,319 --> 00:49:26,630 a question here for adam ambed 853 00:49:46,230 --> 00:49:42,829 from 854 00:49:48,630 --> 00:49:46,240 military 855 00:49:50,470 --> 00:49:48,640 pilot organization of kazakhstan are you 856 00:49:54,270 --> 00:49:50,480 going to do that 857 00:49:56,950 --> 00:49:54,280 well experiment uragan relaxation 858 00:49:58,549 --> 00:49:56,960 content interaction 859 00:49:59,670 --> 00:49:58,559 coulomb christmas 860 00:50:00,630 --> 00:49:59,680 crystal 861 00:50:02,630 --> 00:50:00,640 and 862 00:50:03,589 --> 00:50:02,640 these are the experiments that are going 863 00:50:05,270 --> 00:50:03,599 to take 864 00:50:06,790 --> 00:50:05,280 also kazakh 865 00:50:09,750 --> 00:50:06,800 scientists 866 00:50:12,150 --> 00:50:09,760 developed a special 867 00:50:15,030 --> 00:50:12,160 experiment from you know that any 868 00:50:18,150 --> 00:50:15,040 material uh um absorbs radiation and 869 00:50:21,270 --> 00:50:18,160 then and then uh uh 870 00:50:23,750 --> 00:50:21,280 releases you know the 200 871 00:50:28,549 --> 00:50:23,760 more is the level of radiation on the 872 00:50:32,150 --> 00:50:28,559 station and on the ground and 873 00:50:34,790 --> 00:50:32,160 here what i'm going to do i already 874 00:50:37,750 --> 00:50:34,800 have the data on what i have absorbed 875 00:50:40,069 --> 00:50:37,760 here on the ground and uh in orbit 876 00:50:42,630 --> 00:50:40,079 the design is going to help me to record 877 00:50:45,270 --> 00:50:42,640 that they record the level of radiation 878 00:50:46,230 --> 00:50:45,280 that i was absorbing in space 879 00:50:47,349 --> 00:50:46,240 and 880 00:50:49,589 --> 00:50:47,359 um 881 00:50:51,589 --> 00:50:49,599 from certain areas of my body like from 882 00:50:53,670 --> 00:50:51,599 my brain what is going to then also 883 00:50:55,589 --> 00:50:53,680 content and now this is psychological 884 00:50:57,270 --> 00:50:55,599 experiment this is on interaction of the 885 00:50:59,030 --> 00:50:57,280 crew members before flight during the 886 00:51:02,150 --> 00:50:59,040 flight and after the flight 887 00:51:05,430 --> 00:51:02,160 and that is the assessment of uh 888 00:51:08,549 --> 00:51:05,440 psychological compatibility for uh 889 00:51:10,710 --> 00:51:08,559 future selections of

00:54:10,069 --> 00:54:07,040 you have to have a reserve always 945 00:54:12,309 --> 00:54:10,079 because the flight itself is more than 946 00:54:14,870 --> 00:54:12,319 the training 947 00:54:17,750 --> 00:54:14,880 however 948 00:54:21,829 --> 00:54:17,760 they have given as much as possible and 949 00:54:24,630 --> 00:54:21,839 they're doing great i have no doubts 950 00:54:25,670 -->

--> 00:54:37,760 your family yesterday and it was quite 958 00:54:43,270 --> 00:54:40,079 evident to see that when they saw the 959 00:54:48,549 --> 00:54:43,280 rollout that all of a sudden it was very 960 00:54:50,710 --> 00:54:48,559 real and probably they had more emotions 961 00:54:52,470 --> 00:54:50,720 yesterday than they have had during your 962 00:54:54,549 --> 00:54:52,480 training period 963 00:54:56,549 --> 00:54:54,559 is it also getting more real for you do 964 00:55:00,710 --> 00:54:56,559 you have more emotions now and what have 965 00:55:00,720 --> 00:55:03,910 certainly i mean 966 00:55:07,910 --> 00:55:04,829 flying to 967 00:55:09,510 --> 00:55:07,920 spaces is something very very unique and 968 00:55:11,589 --> 00:55:09,520 i think 969 00:55:13,990 --> 00:55:11,599 one of the difficulties for myself has 970 00:55:15,190 --> 00:55:14,000 been to 971 00:55:18,470 --> 00:55:15,200 imagine 972 00:55:20,230 --> 00:55:18,480 what it will be like or to 973 00:55:22,710 --> 00:55:20,240 yeah to to kind of understand what it'll 974 00:55:23,510 --> 00:55:22,720 be like so the closer we get to launch 975 00:55:25,349 --> 00:55:23,520 uh 976 00:55:26,549 --> 00:55:25,359 first the first at the first fit check 977 00:55:28,309 --> 00:55:26,559 when we had a chance to sit in the 978 00:55:30,309 --> 00:55:28,319 rocket the second check when we again 979 00:55:32,150 --> 00:55:30,319 had to to sit in it of course and of 980 00:55:35,510 --> 00:55:32,160 course today when we're less than 24 981 00:55:39,430 --> 00:55:36,950 the emotions become stronger that's 982 00:55:40,390 --> 00:55:39,440 certainly the case simply because the 983 00:55:42,150 --> 00:55:40,400 time 984 00:55:44,870 --> 00:55:42,160 is nearer and it's 985 00:55:46,950 --> 00:55:44,880 we we feel it's it's more 986 00:55:49,750 --> 00:55:46,960 more real and speaking to my family i 987 00:55:52,950 --> 00:55:49,760 can feel from them too that that they're 988 00:55:54,950 --> 00:55:52,960 becoming more emotional 989 00:55:57,270 --> 00:55:54,960 but you know we talk about the training 990 00:56:00,950 --> 00:55:57,280 that we've had 991 00:56:02,950 --> 00:56:00,960 i have full confidence in my 992 00:56:04,950 --> 00:56:02,960 crewmates uh they've had a chance to 993 00:56:07,910 --> 00:56:04,960 beat my crewmates uh they're very 994 00:56:09,510 --> 00:56:07,920 confident of them so it's uh i mean we 995 00:56:11,030 --> 00:56:09,520 we talk about it but of course it's it's 996 00:56:12,390 --> 00:56:11,040 an emotional time especially when it's 997 00:56:14,390 --> 00:56:12,400 your your first space flight i mean 998 00:56:15,589 --> 00:56:14,400 that's just natural 999 00:56:17,750 --> 00:56:15,599 um 1000 00:56:18,549 --> 00:56:17,760 i mean the rocket is is incredible to 1001 00:56:21,349 --> 00:56:18,559 see 1002 00:56:23,910 --> 00:56:21,359 it's it's almost like a living being 1003 00:56:27,030 --> 00:56:23,920 and tomorrow when we climb up in there 1004 00:56:28,789 --> 00:56:27,040 it really will be a living thing uh 1005 00:56:32,150 --> 00:56:28,799 you know trembling and 1006 00:56:34,069 --> 00:56:32,160 and gas coming off of it and 1007 00:56:35,910 --> 00:56:34,079 yeah it's gonna be uh it's gonna be 1008 00:56:37,589 --> 00:56:35,920 emotional that that's that's definitely 1009 00:58:07,109 --> 00:56:37,599 for sure and i i just think that's a 1010 00:58:11,510 --> 00:58:09,510 is there any almond as what you can take 1011 00:58:14,870 --> 00:58:11,520 to space what you should not 1012 00:58:21,349 --> 00:58:18,309 there was information that um 1013 00:58:24,789 --> 00:58:21,359 some kazakh products are going to be 1014 00:58:26,789 --> 00:58:24,799 taken like food products kumas

was 1018 00:58:36,950 --> 00:58:34,480 wondering when you found out that you 1019 00:58:43,030 --> 00:58:36,960 had been assigned that what did you feel 1020 00:58:48,390 --> 00:58:46,309 in fact as you said is there any ammon 1021 00:58:50,470 --> 00:58:48,400 what is good luck what is bad luck it is 1022 00:58:53,349 --> 00:58:50,480 nothing like this there is just a list 1023 00:58:58,150 --> 00:58:53,359 of items that you should not take 1024 00:59:04,309 --> 00:59:02,470 you can take personal items like uh 1025 00:59:07,109 --> 00:59:04,319 probably you shouldn't be taking any 1026
