1
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:46,950
one second please

2
00:00:46,960 --> 00:01:08,550
okay

3
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:33,109
thank you

4
00:01:33,119 --> 00:01:51,910
first the prime crew

5
00:01:51,920 --> 00:02:13,270
even dancing

6
00:02:13,280 --> 00:03:10,630
is

7
00:03:10,640 --> 00:03:22,869
give it a quick

8
00:03:22,879 --> 00:03:44,710
so

9
00:03:44,720 --> 00:04:00,630
shut up

10
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:14,070
next

11
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:54,150
so far

12
00:04:58,550 --> 00:04:56,150
you know we spent uh over two years

13
00:05:00,310 --> 00:04:58,560
getting ready for this mission and uh

14
00:05:02,310 --> 00:05:00,320
it's both a sense of excitement and

15
00:05:04,710 --> 00:05:02,320
relief when you finish all of the exams

16
00:05:06,310 --> 00:05:04,720
and the commission here in russia it's a

17
00:05:08,390 --> 00:05:06,320
it's a very high bar for training they

18
00:05:10,629 --> 00:05:08,400
expect a lot of the cosmonauts and the

19
00:05:12,629 --> 00:05:10,639
astronauts for us to go to space so

20
00:05:15,270 --> 00:05:12,639
we're just really excited and today has

21
00:05:16,150 --> 00:05:15,280
really been a day of ceremony and uh

22
00:05:17,909 --> 00:05:16,160
it's

23
00:05:19,830 --> 00:05:17,919
both to celebrate the fact that we have

24
00:05:21,670 --> 00:05:19,840
this human space flight program but for

25
00:05:23,670 --> 00:05:21,680
me also i think it's very special that

26
00:05:25,670 --> 00:05:23,680
we have such a positive international

27
00:05:27,590 --> 00:05:25,680
cooperation with all of our partners and

28
00:05:28,710 --> 00:05:27,600
so uh i'm just really honored to be part

29
00:05:31,110 --> 00:05:28,720
of it

30
00:05:32,790 --> 00:05:31,120
and uh one other question for you it's

31
00:05:34,629 --> 00:05:32,800
been a little bit over six years since

32
00:05:35,990 --> 00:05:34,639
you've been to the space station so some

33
00:05:37,430 --> 00:05:36,000
things have changed

34
00:05:40,070 --> 00:05:37,440
you have a window now a big window the

35
00:05:42,469 --> 00:05:40,080
cupola wasn't there last time what are

36
00:05:43,909 --> 00:05:42,479
some things you're excited to do again

37
00:05:45,830 --> 00:05:43,919
and what are some things you're looking

38
00:05:48,469 --> 00:05:45,840
forward to doing for the first time

39
00:05:49,430 --> 00:05:48,479
absolutely you know i am very excited

40
00:05:52,230 --> 00:05:49,440
about being able to look through the

41
00:05:54,550 --> 00:05:52,240
cupola all of uh my colleagues who have

42
00:05:56,390 --> 00:05:54,560
been there on board with the cupola just

43
00:05:58,230 --> 00:05:56,400
talk about what an amazing view you have

44
00:05:59,909 --> 00:05:58,240
of our planet so i'm very excited about

45
00:06:01,430 --> 00:05:59,919
that and uh

46
00:06:03,189 --> 00:06:01,440
one of the things that that i want to be

47
00:06:04,950 --> 00:06:03,199
able to repeat which is

48
00:06:06,629 --> 00:06:04,960
really just a standard portion of our

49
00:06:08,469 --> 00:06:06,639
job there is being able to share the

50
00:06:10,230 --> 00:06:08,479
experience with our friends and family

51
00:06:12,070 --> 00:06:10,240
back home we have an internet protocol

52
00:06:13,830 --> 00:06:12,080
telephone and

53
00:06:16,070 --> 00:06:13,840
on occasion we have video conferences

54
00:06:19,350 --> 00:06:16,080
with family so it's a really great way

55
00:06:21,110 --> 00:06:19,360
for us to share our experience

56
00:06:22,870 --> 00:06:21,120
tim peake this is going to be your first

57
00:06:24,790 --> 00:06:22,880
trip to the international space station

58
00:06:26,070 --> 00:06:24,800
you've just finished all these uh hard

59
00:06:27,830 --> 00:06:26,080
years of training they kind of

60
00:06:29,270 --> 00:06:27,840
culminated today what are your feelings

61
00:06:30,230 --> 00:06:29,280
as you're about to leave for baikonur in

62
00:06:32,070 --> 00:06:30,240
a week

63
00:06:33,830 --> 00:06:32,080
i'm really excited you know it's the

64
00:06:35,909 --> 00:06:33,840
culmination of two and a half years of

65
00:06:38,230 --> 00:06:35,919
assigned crew training everything for me

66
00:06:40,390 --> 00:06:38,240
has been a new experience

67
00:06:42,550 --> 00:06:40,400
and so going down to biker baikonur now

68
00:06:45,029 --> 00:06:42,560
as prime crew it's just a wonderful part

69
00:06:46,870 --> 00:06:45,039
of this incredible journey into space

70
00:06:48,790 --> 00:06:46,880
and any experiments that you're excited

71
00:06:50,150 --> 00:06:48,800
about working on on your first trip to

72
00:06:52,309 --> 00:06:50,160
space

73
00:06:54,150 --> 00:06:52,319
sure i mean there's you know over 250

74
00:06:56,629 --> 00:06:54,160
experiments there's loads to choose from

75
00:06:58,950 --> 00:06:56,639
some of the interesting ones um i love

76
00:07:00,390 --> 00:06:58,960
the electromagnetic levitator you know

77
00:07:02,309 --> 00:07:00,400
it's a great experiment and what it's

78
00:07:03,830 --> 00:07:02,319
capable of and and coming from a

79
00:07:05,909 --> 00:07:03,840
background of engineering and test

80
00:07:07,670 --> 00:07:05,919
piloting i think that some of the the

81
00:07:09,990 --> 00:07:07,680
metal alloys that we're researching on

82
00:07:11,990 --> 00:07:10,000
that experiment are very exciting um

83
00:07:13,990 --> 00:07:12,000
protein crystals in the japanese

84
00:07:15,830 --> 00:07:14,000
laboratory again a very exciting

85
00:07:18,150 --> 00:07:15,840
experiment i think has got huge

86
00:07:20,230 --> 00:07:18,160
potential for medical benefits for

87
00:07:21,749 --> 00:07:20,240
people back here on earth and the human

88
00:07:23,029 --> 00:07:21,759
physiology experiments obviously i'm

89
00:07:25,270 --> 00:07:23,039
particularly interested in because

90
00:07:27,510 --> 00:07:25,280
they're being done on my own body

91
00:07:30,070 --> 00:07:27,520
and some of those the research into the
