1 00:00:12,150 --> 00:00:08,310 dear 2 00:00:13,830 --> 00:00:12,160 commission 3 00:00:19,750 --> 00:00:13,840 our crew members are ready for the 4 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:40,549 we trust you with this 5 00:00:40,559 --> 00:00:51,830 do you have questions 6 00:00:55,270 --> 00:00:53,590 absolutely yeah we've traded a long time 7 00:00:57,590 --> 00:00:55,280 for this so we're very ready for the 8 00:01:01,830 --> 00:00:57,600 mission um looking forward to this final 9 00:01:05,670 --> 00:01:03,990 uh really i mean after this it's the 10 00:01:08,070 --> 00:01:05,680 culmination of the training we then head 11 00:01:09,350 --> 00:01:08,080 down to quarantine for baikonur so i'm 12 00:01:10,630 --> 00:01:09,360 just really excited about the next 13 00:01:21,270 --> 00:01:10,640 couple of weeks in the build up to the 14 00:01:24,070 --> 00:01:22,870 there are lots of similarities between 15 00:01:26,230 --> 00:01:24,080 training for 16 00:01:28,469 --> 00:01:26,240 the two missions on either a soyuz or 17 00:01:30,550 --> 00:01:28,479 shuttle because both are very dynamic 18 00:01:32,310 --> 00:01:30,560 vehicles and uh 19 00:01:34,149 --> 00:01:32,320 and during our training and during our 20 00:01:36,149 --> 00:01:34,159 exam today we plan for worst case 21 00:01:37,510 --> 00:01:36,159 scenario and that way the crew is is 22 00:01:39,429 --> 00:01:37,520 very ready you know some of the 23 00:01:41,670 --> 00:01:39,439 differences are in terms of techniques 24 00:01:43,510 --> 00:01:41,680 on how that that approach is completed 25 00:02:02,230 --> 00:01:43,520 but in general both are very effective 26 00:02:06,789 --> 00:02:04,550 this integrated simulator that is 27 00:02:09,350 --> 00:02:06,799 located behind us 28 00:02:10,469 --> 00:02:09,360 is rather accurately 29 00:02:13,830 --> 00:02:10,479 modeling 30 00:02:16,390 --> 00:02:13,840 different processes that happen with a 31 00:02:19,190 --> 00:02:16,400 real transportation vehicle in space it 32 00:02:22,710 --> 00:02:19,200 models those processes 33 00:02:23,750 --> 00:02:22,720 and we practice all the main 34 00:02:26,070 --> 00:02:23,760 modes 35 00:02:29,350 --> 00:02:26,080 that are programmed in the simulator 36 00:02:31,110 --> 00:02:29,360 and they allow us to operate in space as 37 00:02:33,190 --> 00:02:31,120 if we were in the simulator very 38 00:02:35,430 --> 00:02:33,200 frequently cosmonauts 39 00:02:37,350 --> 00:02:35,440 point out that they feel as if they were 40 00:02:39,830 --> 00:02:37,360 still in the simulator 41 00:02:42,710 --> 00:02:39,840 and that is a good assessment 42 00:02:43,990 --> 00:02:42,720 for the simulator and 43 00:02:49,190 --> 00:02:44,000 high assessment for the people who 44 00:02:55,350 --> 00:02:50,869 there can be 45 00:02:58,949 --> 00:02:55,360 a huge enormous number of situations 46 00:03:02,070 --> 00:02:58,959 which they can change over 30 parameters 47 00:03:05,030 --> 00:03:02,080 and make them off nominal and using 48 00:03:06,710 --> 00:03:05,040 those parameters you can create any kind 49 00:03:10,470 --> 00:03:06,720 of situations 50 00:03:13,030 --> 00:03:10,480 you see it's as if it's music there are 51 00:03:19,270 --> 00:03:13,040 notes but the number of tunes is 52 00:03:25,430 --> 00:03:21,110 we have been 53 00:03:26,949 --> 00:03:25,440 training for about 18 months together 54 00:03:29,589 --> 00:03:26,959 and we have 55 00:03:30,949 --> 00:03:29,599 gone through the backup crew 56 00:03:33,509 --> 00:03:30,959 training 57 00:03:38,630 --> 00:03:33,519 so we have worked together and 58 00:03:42,309 --> 00:03:40,949 um i think there's two things that are 59 00:03:44,470 --> 00:03:42,319 really hard about the training firstly 60 00:03:46,149 --> 00:03:44,480 it's a long period two and a half years 61 00:03:47,910 --> 00:03:46,159 and you have to retain a lot of 62 00:03:49,750 --> 00:03:47,920 information over that period sometimes 63 00:03:51,270 --> 00:03:49,760 you'll only get one lesson prior to 64 00:03:53,429 --> 00:03:51,280 actually seeing it on board the space 65 00:03:55,190 --> 00:03:53,439 station so knowing what to retain and 66 00:03:56,710 --> 00:03:55,200 how to retain that information is is 67 00:03:58,710 --> 00:03:56,720 quite an art 68 00:04:00,309 --> 00:03:58,720 and secondly of course everything we do 69 00:04:04,470 --> 00:04:00,319 here is in russian so learning russian 70 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:14,229 enough to work in the soyuz yes 71 00:04:18,069 --> 00:04:16,069 yes i mean we've got lots of experiments 72 00:04:20,069 --> 00:04:18,079 planned um both in the russian segment 73 00:04:22,390 --> 00:04:20,079 and in the usos segment in fact there's 74 00:04:25,270 --> 00:04:22,400 over 250 experiments that we'll be 75 00:04:26,950 --> 00:04:25,280 performing throughout the six-month tour 76 00:04:29,030 --> 00:04:26,960 and of course many of those are on our 77 00:04:31,110 --> 00:04:29,040 human body ourselves 78 00:04:33,350 --> 00:04:31,120 one in particular for example is immuno 79 00:04:34,469 --> 00:04:33,360 2 which investigates the body's immune 80 00:04:36,629 --> 00:04:34,479 system 81 00:04:38,150 --> 00:04:36,639 and how that changes with aging process 82 00:04:40,310 --> 00:04:38,160 and of course that will affect people on 83 00:04:49,670 --> 00:04:40,320 earth as well have benefit for our aging 84 00:04:52,070 --> 00:04:50,870 none whatsoever i think that's one of 85 00:04:53,990 --> 00:04:52,080 the great things about the training 86 00:04:56,390 --> 00:04:54,000 process is any concerns that you may 87 00:04:57,670 --> 00:04:56,400 have really are dealt with as we've gone 88 00:04:59,110 --> 00:04:57,680 through this two and a half year 89 00:05:01,270 --> 00:04:59,120 training process and by the time we get 90 00:05:15,510 --> 00:05:01,280 to today you know the final exam uh 91 00:05:20,070 --> 00:05:17,590 you know through the training process 92 00:05:22,710 --> 00:05:20,080 even if someone hasn't flown before they 93 00:05:25,029 --> 00:05:22,720 are 100 ready because one the training 94 00:05:27,350 --> 00:05:25,039 process accounts for that and 95 00:05:29,590 --> 00:05:27,360 and also the the new flyer can can 96 00:05:47,430 --> 00:05:29,600 relate to people who have experience and 97 00:05:53,270 --> 00:05:50,950 our prime goal right now is to ascend 98 00:05:55,670 --> 00:05:53,280 into orbit and dock to the station and 99 00:05:57,670 --> 00:05:55,680 our program is very diverse 100 00:05:59,430 --> 00:05:57,680 we have a lot of dynamic operations 101 00:06:02,309 --> 00:05:59,440 we're going to 102 00:06:04,790 --> 00:06:02,319 see a lot of transportation 103 00:06:06,710 --> 00:06:04,800 and cargo vehicles arrive 104 00:06:09,189 --> 00:06:06,720 that we need to 105 00:06:10,390 --> 00:06:09,199 uh dock and 106 00:06:12,390 --> 00:06:10,400 undock 107 00:06:14,710 --> 00:06:12,400 for the russian segment program we're 108 00:06:17,029 --> 00:06:14,720 going to have two cargo vehicles arrived 109 00:06:20,230 --> 00:06:17,039 during our stay then also there will be 110 00:06:23,189 --> 00:06:20,240 a russian eva planned 111 00:06:25,909 --> 00:06:23,199 and we have about 10 tasks then we that 112 00:06:29,350 --> 00:06:25,919 we need to perform a very diverse 113 00:06:32,150 --> 00:06:29,360 science program over 50 experiments 114 00:06:34,070 --> 00:06:32,160 up for the program of the russian 115 00:06:35,110 --> 00:06:34,080 segment and we're going to work on that 116 00:06:36,550 --> 00:06:35,120 and 117 00:06:38,309 --> 00:06:36,560 my russian 118 00:06:41,110 --> 00:06:38,319 cosmetic colleagues and myself are going 119 00:06:45,110 --> 00:06:41,120 to work to achieve these goals 120 00:06:48,469 --> 00:06:47,110 are also diverse they have a lot of 121 00:06:51,510 --> 00:06:48,479 tasks 122 00:06:54,390 --> 00:06:51,520 and the expedition is going to be very 123 00:06:56,390 --> 00:06:54,400 intense and very busy 124 00:06:57,950 --> 00:06:56,400 we're going to be about six months on 125 00:07:15,110 --> 00:06:57,960 board over 126 00:07:20,390 --> 00:07:17,909 um subjects 127 00:07:22,469 --> 00:07:20,400 when a person goes to space for the 128 00:07:24,150 --> 00:07:22,479 first time 129 00:07:25,510 --> 00:07:24,160 they will be 130 00:07:27,189 --> 00:07:25,520 looking very 131 00:07:30,550 --> 00:07:27,199 attentively around what's going on 132 00:07:32,790 --> 00:07:30,560 around them and something 133 00:07:35,029 --> 00:07:32,800 comes up that 134 00:07:37,830 --> 00:07:35,039 they're unclear how to react to we can 135 00:07:40,469 --> 00:07:37,840 discuss it and 136 00:07:44,710 --> 00:07:40,479 no rush things in space 137 00:07:47,830 --> 00:07:44,720 happen very slowly the velocity is 138 00:07:50,390 --> 00:07:47,840 high but everything happens slowly so 139 00:07:52,629 --> 00:07:50,400 there will be no rush 140 00:07:55,430 --> 00:07:52,639 ah gosh i i mean i think the whole 141 00:07:56,790 --> 00:07:55,440 experience is is a huge privilege and 142 00:07:58,710 --> 00:07:56,800 it's going to be tremendously exciting 143 00:08:00,629 --> 00:07:58,720 but seeing that first view of planet 144 00:08:12,710 --> 00:08:00,639 earth from space is probably going to be 145 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:50,710 okay 146 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:59,829 uh 147 00:09:05,829 --> 00:09:01,910 dear commission 148 00:09:07,670 --> 00:09:05,839 members crew members of expedition 4647 149 00:09:10,070 --> 00:09:07,680 already 150 00:09:20,870 --> 00:09:10,080 good job 151 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:31,350 put 152 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:43,670 tim your turn 153 00:09:43,680 --> 00:09:47,350 do you have any questions 154 00:09:51,350 --> 00:09:49,910 of course i am comfortable working with 155 00:09:53,829 --> 00:09:51,360 this crew 156 00:09:59,190 --> 00:09:53,839 they're very well trained they're very 157 00:10:03,590 --> 00:10:01,750 we're ready not just for training 158 00:10:05,590 --> 00:10:03,600 we're ready for the flight we've been 159 00:10:08,310 --> 00:10:05,600 training together for a long time 160 00:10:12,069 --> 00:10:08,320 everything is fine we're going to do our 161 00:10:12,079 --> 00:10:17,509 thank you 162 00:10:21,269 --> 00:10:18,550 do you think it's going to be 163 00:10:23,590 --> 00:10:21,279 complicated well it's going to look like 164 00:10:26,069 --> 00:10:23,600 any other working day on board of the 165 00:10:29,509 --> 00:10:26,079 station the difference is we're going to 166 00:10:33,509 --> 00:10:29,519 have phenomenal uh situations that are 167 00:10:37,350 --> 00:10:33,519 going to be built into the script 168 00:10:39,670 --> 00:10:37,360 we will have to be very attentive and 169 00:10:42,150 --> 00:10:39,680 to make sure we don't miss at the start 170 00:10:46,389 --> 00:10:42,160 of the phenomenal situation 171 00:10:55,190 --> 00:10:46,399 it's going to be a very intense busy day 172 00:11:00,069 --> 00:10:56,389 the crew 173 00:11:03,590 --> 00:11:00,079 is ready for any situations 174 00:11:05,910 --> 00:11:03,600 as far as the electrical power system is 175 00:11:09,110 --> 00:11:05,920 concerned or other systems 176 00:11:11,190 --> 00:11:09,120 um there are usually a design of nominal 177 00:11:14,069 --> 00:11:11,200 situations they're 178 00:11:17,509 --> 00:11:14,079 predictable the crew members are well 179 00:11:19,430 --> 00:11:17,519 trained to perform the procedures to 180 00:11:22,389 --> 00:11:19,440 deal with the situations either 181 00:11:24,389 --> 00:11:22,399 independently or jointly with the ground 182 00:11:27,269 --> 00:11:24,399 mission control there are some of 183 00:11:30,150 --> 00:11:27,279 nominal situations that have not they're 184 00:11:33,030 --> 00:11:30,160 not predictable that need to be analyzed 185 00:11:37,030 --> 00:11:35,829 that requires a deeper level of 186 00:11:40,829 --> 00:11:37,040 knowledge 187 00:11:43,829 --> 00:11:40,839 and talking to the ground 188 00:11:47,509 --> 00:11:43,839 specialists the ground specialists work 189 00:11:52,870 --> 00:11:50,150 prepare a solution it's your sixth 190 00:11:57,509 --> 00:11:55,110 this flight is planned a very 191 00:12:02,790 --> 00:11:57,519 interesting one 192 00:12:07,990 --> 00:12:05,350 as far as its complexity level it's 193 00:12:09,590 --> 00:12:08,000 above average 194 00:12:11,670 --> 00:12:09,600 you're talking about the electrical 195 00:12:14,389 --> 00:12:11,680 power system malfunction 196 00:12:17,590 --> 00:12:14,399 it didn't result in any specific 197 00:12:22,150 --> 00:12:17,600 consequence that would uh 198 00:12:24,550 --> 00:12:22,160 complicate the stay of the crew on board 199 00:12:27,030 --> 00:12:24,560 it is a serious situation but it was 200 00:12:30,790 --> 00:12:27,040 dealt with quickly 201 00:12:32,310 --> 00:12:30,800 and it didn't deteriorate um 202 00:12:37,269 --> 00:12:32,320 the 203 00:12:39,590 --> 00:12:37,279 what 204 00:12:42,949 --> 00:12:39,600 experience 205 00:12:45,030 --> 00:12:42,959 you want to do on a campus 206 00:12:46,230 --> 00:12:45,040 well we want to do our our job while 207 00:12:48,389 --> 00:12:46,240 we're on board we have lots of 208 00:12:50,470 --> 00:12:48,399 experiments uh there may be some space 209 00:12:52,389 --> 00:12:50,480 walks during our mission and several new 210 00:12:56,389 --> 00:12:52,399 vehicles will be docking so we'll have a 211 00:13:02,710 --> 00:12:59,430 do you speak russian 212 00:13:04,389 --> 00:13:02,720 yes we can work cards 213 00:13:06,550 --> 00:13:04,399 when we are 214 00:13:09,750 --> 00:13:06,560 going to live there 215 00:13:12,069 --> 00:13:09,760 it's a very good experience 216 00:13:15,509 --> 00:13:12,079 we will be able to 217 00:13:18,389 --> 00:13:15,519 i see earth we can operate um the 218 00:13:21,269 --> 00:13:18,399 robotic arm we can go out um during an 219 00:13:23,269 --> 00:13:21,279 eva we can spend our time well 220 00:13:26,230 --> 00:13:23,279 your colleagues are now growing flowers 221 00:13:27,670 --> 00:13:26,240 on board and they recently grew cabbage 222 00:13:28,790 --> 00:13:27,680 do you have something interesting like 223 00:13:31,190 --> 00:13:28,800 that 224 00:13:44,710 --> 00:13:31,200 cabbage do you plan do you have a plant 225 00:13:50,150 --> 00:13:47,750 absolutely we have a fabulous soyuz crew 226 00:13:51,670 --> 00:13:50,160 and we'll join a great crew on board 227 00:13:53,590 --> 00:13:51,680 yuri malenchenko 228 00:13:55,030 --> 00:13:53,600 very experienced cosmonaut this will be 229 00:13:57,509 --> 00:13:55,040 his sixth flight he's flown on the 230 00:13:59,350 --> 00:13:57,519 shuttle before he's commanded the soyuz 231 00:14:01,110 --> 00:13:59,360 many times as well as both the space 232 00:14:02,949 --> 00:14:01,120 station and 233 00:14:04,389 --> 00:14:02,959 and the mirror space station so we're 234 00:14:05,509 --> 00:14:04,399 we're quite fortunate to have such an 235 00:14:08,550 --> 00:14:05,519 experienced 236 00:14:10,949 --> 00:14:08,560 um cosmonaut with us on board uh tim 237 00:14:12,870 --> 00:14:10,959 peake a very experienced experimental 238 00:14:15,430 --> 00:14:12,880 test pilot and he's joined us this will 239 00:14:17,509 --> 00:14:15,440 be his first flight and uh we've had a 240 00:14:19,110 --> 00:14:17,519 great time training together it's been a 241 00:14:27,110 --> 00:14:19,120 great experience over the last couple of 242 00:14:36,790 --> 00:14:28,870 i may ask you another question you have 243 00:14:43,030 --> 00:14:41,189 this cba is going to be um 244 00:14:46,310 --> 00:14:43,040 for the purpose of the russian 245 00:14:47,030 --> 00:14:46,320 segment program the main part of the eva 246 00:14:50,230 --> 00:14:47,040 is 247 00:14:52,949 --> 00:14:50,240 going to have five tasks science 248 00:14:55,590 --> 00:14:52,959 research and technology research uh 249 00:14:57,509 --> 00:14:55,600 verifying various technologies 250 00:15:00,230 --> 00:14:57,519 moreover we're going to install 251 00:15:02,230 --> 00:15:00,240 additional handrails that are going to 252 00:15:04,470 --> 00:15:02,240 be used in the future for crew 253 00:15:05,910 --> 00:15:04,480 translation on the outside of the 254 00:15:08,150 --> 00:15:05,920 station we're going to take photographs 255 00:15:10,230 --> 00:15:08,160 of the mli and the outside surface of 256 00:15:14,949 --> 00:15:10,240 the station 257 00:15:18,550 --> 00:15:14,959 is this a long uh duration six months 258 00:15:19,990 --> 00:15:18,560 well that's a long time yes but 259 00:15:23,670 --> 00:15:20,000 we're going to be 260 00:15:28,629 --> 00:15:23,680 there 261 00:15:33,590 --> 00:15:31,189 which has much fewer responsibilities 262 00:15:35,110 --> 00:15:33,600 than the commander or the left-hand seat 263 00:15:36,550 --> 00:15:35,120 once on board the station for our 264 00:15:39,189 --> 00:15:36,560 six-month mission 265 00:15:41,509 --> 00:15:39,199 all crew members are trained up to a 266 00:15:43,990 --> 00:15:41,519 fairly similar level so that will 267 00:15:46,310 --> 00:15:44,000 include the possibility of visiting 268 00:15:48,629 --> 00:15:46,320 vehicles using the robotic arm 269 00:15:50,470 --> 00:15:48,639 completing spacewalks eva if they're 270 00:15:52,389 --> 00:15:50,480 scheduled during our mission and of 271 00:15:54,470 --> 00:15:52,399 course conducting all of the scientific 272 00:16:03,910 --> 00:15:54,480 experiments that we have planned for the 273 00:16:08,470 --> 00:16:06,069 colleagues please stay 274 00:16:09,990 --> 00:16:08,480 here together the 275 00:16:23,749 --> 00:16:10,000 head of the center will come here in a 276 00:16:23,759 --> 00:16:53,749 okay 277 00:17:00,310 --> 00:16:56,870 today is the main day the crew members 278 00:17:04,390 --> 00:17:00,320 have undergone a long uh training 279 00:17:07,350 --> 00:17:04,400 as well as on the russian segment uh and 280 00:17:10,470 --> 00:17:07,360 uh in nasa in the u.s and in the 281 00:17:12,230 --> 00:17:10,480 european space agency jaxa 282 00:17:13,829 --> 00:17:12,240 in japan 283 00:17:16,870 --> 00:17:13,839 and the crew members have shown very 284 00:17:21,909 --> 00:17:19,510 prior to the integrated simulation 285 00:17:23,510 --> 00:17:21,919 uh training the crew members have passed 286 00:17:24,870 --> 00:17:23,520 the exam uh 287 00:17:26,309 --> 00:17:24,880 for manual 288 00:17:29,110 --> 00:17:26,319 modes uh 289 00:17:39,029 --> 00:17:29,120 docking and docking descent and the past 290 00:17:44,029 --> 00:17:41,909 dear chairman of the exam commission the 291 00:17:47,350 --> 00:17:44,039 crew member backup crew members of the 292 00:17:49,830 --> 00:17:47,360 4647 crew members are ready for 293 00:17:51,270 --> 00:17:49,840 the examination 294 00:18:09,190 --> 00:17:51,280 good morning 295 00:18:13,590 --> 00:18:11,750 yeah our job is to essentially do 296 00:18:15,510 --> 00:18:13,600 everything that the primary crew does 297 00:18:17,590 --> 00:18:15,520 and service their backup 298 00:18:20,070 --> 00:18:17,600 and clear and i have been training here 299 00:18:22,230 --> 00:18:20,080 for about two and a half years 300 00:18:36,470 --> 00:18:22,240 the training program includes station 301 00:18:39,510 --> 00:18:37,510 i worked 302 00:18:44,150 --> 00:18:39,520 as a biologist and i'm very interested 303 00:18:47,990 --> 00:18:44,160 in the science experiments i'm hoping to 304 00:18:49,990 --> 00:18:48,000 perform some experiments with the 305 00:18:51,190 --> 00:18:50,000 protein cells it would be very 306 00:18:53,430 --> 00:18:51,200 interesting 307 00:19:09,029 --> 00:18:53,440 to see how biological organisms behave
