00:00:46,869 --> 00:00:36,559 phenomenal 13 00:00:51,590 --> 00:00:48,470 good first stage performance soyuz 14 00:00:54,310 --> 00:00:51,600 delivering 930 000 pounds of thrust from 15 00:00:56,630 --> 00:00:54,320 its for four boosters in single engine 16 00:00:58,389 --> 00:00:56,640 the first stage of the soyuz measured 68 17 00:01:00,470 --> 00:00:58,399 feet in length and 24 18 00:01:02,150 --> 00:01:00,480 feet in diameter and it burns liquid 19 00:01:04,229 --> 00:01:02,160 fuel for the first two minutes and six 20 00:01:06,870 --> 00:01:04,239 seconds of flight stabilization is 21 00:01:15,190 --> 00:01:06,880 performing as planned 22 00:01:24,469 --> 00:01:17,429 one minute now in today's flight of the 23 00:01:28,070 --> 00:01:26,550 velocity of the vehicle is now 1100 24 00:01:28,950 --> 00:01:28,080 miles per hour 25 00:01:31,510 --> 00:01:28,960 now 26 00:01:44,950 --> 00:01:31,520 we are fine and everything is good on 27 00:01:48,870 --> 00:01:47,109 a minute and a half until the day's 28 00:01:51,270 --> 00:01:48,880 flight everything looking good on board 29 00:01:54,469 --> 00:01:51,280 the soyuz 30 00:01:56,870 --> 00:01:54,479 90 seconds view here of the crew inside 31 00:01:59,270 --> 00:01:56,880 the soyuz looking at uh anatoly 32 00:02:01,190 --> 00:01:59,280 ivanishin and takuya onishi 33 00:02:10,150 --> 00:02:01,200 not seen here but sitting next to them 34 00:02:13,430 --> 00:02:11,589 and the crew here on the ground 35 00:02:17,190 --> 00:02:13,440 reporting that the escape tower on board 36 00:02:21,030 --> 00:02:19,350 and the soyuz 37 00:02:22,470 --> 00:02:21,040 four strap-on boosters also been 38 00:02:24,470 --> 00:02:22,480 jettisoned they've completed their job 39 00:02:27,030 --> 00:02:24,480 and dropped away at an altitude of 28 40 00:02:28,470 --> 00:02:27,040 statute miles soyuz now traveling at 41 00:02:29,589 --> 00:02:28,480 about 33 42 00:02:32,470 --> 00:02:29,599 or 3 43 00:02:34,630 --> 00:02:32,480 350 miles an hour 44 00:02:52,869 --> 00:02:34,640 130 seconds into the flight 45 00:03:02,149 --> 00:02:56,070 150 seconds into the flight second stage 46 00:03:05,509 --> 00:03:03,910 everything is team here on the ground 47 00:03:07,670 --> 00:03:05,519 reporting the launch shroud has also 48 00:03:17,990 --> 00:03:07,680 been jettisoned now the rockets altitude 49 00:03:21,030 --> 00:03:19,670 three minutes and three seconds into the 50 00:03:22,390 --> 00:03:21,040 flight everything's still going well 51 00:03:27,750 --> 00:03:22,400 this will use traveling at a speed of 52 00:03:33,110 --> 00:03:30,470 and there's kate rubin sitting in the 53 00:03:36,309 --> 00:03:33,120 left seat uh waving at the camera 54 00:03:37,990 --> 00:03:36,319 soyuz core stage performing as expected 55 00:03:40,869 --> 00:03:38,000 we are watching flight engineering where 56 00:03:42,550 --> 00:03:40,879 stage of soyuz is 56 feet in length and 57 00:03:44,149 --> 00:03:42,560 13 and a half feet in diameter and it 58 00:03:49,190 --> 00:03:44,159 has a single engine with four fuel 59 00:03:51,910 --> 00:03:49,200 chambers providing between 178 and 222 60 00:03:54,949 --> 00:03:51,920 601 pounds of thrust for its uh three 61 00:03:56,550 --> 00:03:54,959 minutes and 28 seconds of operation 62 00:03:59,030 --> 00:03:56,560 stage will continue to burn until four 63 00:04:01,190 --> 00:03:59,040 minute and 43 second mark 64 00:04:02,949 --> 00:04:01,200 soyuz uses what's called a hot stage 65 00:04:04,710 --> 00:04:02,959 technique the third stage will ignite 66 00:04:07,429 --> 00:04:04,720 while the second stage is still burning 67 00:04:15,670 --> 00:04:07,439 this is why the soyuz has an open area 68 00:04:19,830 --> 00:04:17,030 four minutes now into the flight 69 00:04:21,349 --> 00:04:19,840 everything continuing to go as planned 70 00:04:33,070 --> 00:04:21,359 as the soyuz begins making its way 71 00:04:39,350 --> 00:04:36,390 250 seconds into the flight your pitch 72 00:05:00,150 --> 00:04:39,360 and roll are nominal we are feeling fine 73 00:05:04,790 --> 00:05:02,469 four minutes and 46 seconds now into the 74 00:05:06,950 --> 00:05:04,800 flight third third stage of the soyuz is 75 00:05:08,070 --> 00:05:06,960 igniting the second stage is shutting 76 00:05:12,070 --> 00:05:08,080 down 77 00:05:17,029 --> 00:05:14,150 and we've confirmed that the core 78 00:05:20,870 --> 00:05:17,039 booster separated an altitude of 105 79 00:05:22,710 --> 00:05:20,880 miles or 170 kilometers 80 00:05:24,390 --> 00:05:22,720 soyuz is now 81 00:05:26,710 --> 00:05:24,400 being propelled by a single engine of 82 00:05:29,510 --> 00:05:26,720 the soyuz's third stage this engine is 83 00:05:31,110 --> 00:05:29,520 providing 67 000 pounds of thrust and 84 00:05:59,990 --> 00:05:31,120 will burn for four minutes and two 85 00:06:03,749 --> 00:06:02,230 five minutes and 45 seconds now into 86 00:06:05,670 --> 00:06:03,759 flight 87 00:06:07,430 --> 00:06:05,680 everything's still looking good so he is 88 00:06:08,870 --> 00:06:07,440 continuing to make its way into low 89 00:06:11,110 --> 00:06:08,880 earth orbit on its way to the 90 00:06:13,510 --> 00:06:11,120 international space station with 91 00:06:14,950 --> 00:06:13,520 kate rubins anatoly ivanishin and takuya 92 00:06:16,550 --> 00:06:14,960 onishi aboard 93 00:06:32,830 --> 00:06:16,560 we are feeling fine everything is good 94 00:06:43,029 --> 00:06:35,510 307 seconds into the flight all 95 00:06:43,039 --> 00:07:03,110 everything is good on board 96 00:07:14,870 --> 00:07:05,110 400 seconds into the flight 97 00:07:18,469 --> 00:07:16,870 seven minutes now into flight and that 98 00:07:42,350 --> 00:07:18,479 single engine of the third stage 99 00:07:47,110 --> 00:07:44,550 140 seconds into the flight 100 00:07:49,510 --> 00:07:47,120 stabilization is performing as planned 101 00:07:52,150 --> 00:07:49,520 we are feeling well and everything is 102 00:07:55,270 --> 00:07:53,589 the crew continuing to report that 103 00:07:58,950 --> 00:07:55,280 everything's going well on board the 104 00:07:59,909 --> 00:07:58,960 soyuz is now going almost 13 500 miles 105 00:08:01,589 --> 00:07:59,919 an hour 106 00:08:03,670 --> 00:08:01,599 once the third stage delivers the soyuz 107 00:08:05,110 --> 00:08:03,680 to orbit and the module is separated 108 00:08:07,589 --> 00:08:05,120 there will be a series of pre-programmed 109 00:08:10,629 --> 00:08:07,599 commands to be executed to prepare the 110 00:08:12,150 --> 00:08:10,639 soyuz for orbital operations 111 00:08:13,830 --> 00:08:12,160 these stored commands are called time 112 00:08:16,710 --> 00:08:13,840 tag commands and allow many of the soyuz 113 00:08:19,270 --> 00:08:16,720 systems to be automatically activated by 114 00:08:21,110 --> 00:08:19,280 onboard computers at precise times 115 00:08:23,029 --> 00:08:21,120 stored in the computers 116 00:08:39,589 --> 00:08:23,039 we're feeling well everything is good on 117 00:08:44,790 --> 00:08:42,230 500 seconds into the flight the flight 118 00:08:47,110 --> 00:08:44,800 is nominal 119 00:08:58,389 --> 00:08:47,120 we are feeling fine everything is good 120 00:08:58,399 --> 00:09:10,710 be ready for the separation 121 00:09:14,470 --> 00:09:12,630 and uh the third stage separation being 122 00:09:16,550 --> 00:09:14,480 confirmed here on the ground you saw the 123 00:09:17,350 --> 00:09:16,560 crew reacting to it on board there and 124 00:09:21,829 --> 00:09:17,360 uh 125 00:09:24,110 --> 00:09:21,839 single liquid fueled engine is shut down 126 00:09:27,509 --> 00:09:24,120 and dropped away at an altitude of 127 00:09:29,269 --> 00:09:27,519 125 miles statute miles 128 00:09:31,190 --> 00:09:29,279 mcc moscow 129 00:09:33,030 --> 00:09:31,200 soyuz capsule and crew inside are now 130 00:09:34,389 --> 00:09:33,040 safely in orbit and the spacecraft is 131 00:09:36,230 --> 00:09:34,399 automatically executing its 132 00:09:38,710 --> 00:09:36,240 pre-programmed commands to deploy the 133 00:09:41,750 --> 00:09:38,720 antennas and solar arrays we copy your 134 00:09:51,190 --> 00:09:41,760 moscow everything is fine the heating of 135 00:09:55,430 --> 00:09:52,870 good report there from the crew soyuz is 136 00:09:57,750 --> 00:09:55,440 orbiting now an altitude of about 143 137 00:09:59,590 --> 00:09:57,760 miles by 118 miles 138 00:10:01,269 --> 00:09:59,600 that'll be raised systematically over 139 00:10:02,710 --> 00:10:01,279 the course of the next two days placing 140 00:10:04,550 --> 00:10:02,720 it in close proximity to the
