to watch that live 34 00:01:31,590 --> 00:01:30,069 hi i'm evie 35 00:01:36,710 --> 00:01:31,600 how old were you when you decided you 36 00:01:41,670 --> 00:01:38,950 abby i was much younger than you i was 37 00:01:43,350 --> 00:01:41,680 around five or six years old at the time 38 00:01:45,350 --> 00:01:43,360 that's when a lot of the apollo 39 00:01:47,590 --> 00:01:45,360 astronauts were launching and landing on 40 00:01:49,270 --> 00:01:47,600 the moon and once i saw that it really 41 00:01:50,950 --> 00:01:49,280 inspired me to want to do something like 42 00:01:55,109 --> 00:01:50,960 that 43 00:02:00,789 --> 00:01:58,230 hi i'm andy 44 00:02:08,070 --> 00:02:00,799 why did you want to go to space and do 45 00:02:11,910 --> 00:02:09,990 good question um the reason i want to go 46 00:02:13,910 --> 00:02:11,920 to space is it's it's such an adventure 47 00:02:15,510 --> 00:02:13,920 and i think all of us at some level have 48 00:02:16,710 --> 00:02:15,520 an adventurous heart and we want to do 49 00:02:19,190 --> 00:02:16,720 things that people have never done 50 00:02:21,110 --> 00:02:19,200 before uh find out things that never 51 00:02:22,869 --> 00:02:21,120 people have never found out before and 52 00:02:23,750 --> 00:02:22,879 that's part of this process so we're up 53 00:02:25,910 --> 00:02:23,760 here 54 00:02:28,550 --> 00:02:25,920 doing a lot of science and research that 55 00:02:30,630 --> 00:02:28,560 may not help us but it will help people 56 00:02:32,070 --> 00:02:30,640 like you maybe down the road so it's 57 00:02:34,470 --> 00:02:32,080 kind of cool to be a part of something 58 00:02:36,150 --> 00:02:34,480 that big and something that unique and 59 00:02:38,390 --> 00:02:36,160 of course it's a really neat environment 60 00:02:40,390 --> 00:02:38,400 to live and work 61 00:02:41,830 --> 00:02:40,400 and to answer your second question i'd 62 00:02:43,270 --> 00:02:41,840 love to go back 63 00:02:44,790 --> 00:02:43,280 but i certainly want to see my other 64 00:02:45,910 --> 00:02:44,800 colleagues who haven't flown in space 65 00:02:52,550 --> 00:02:45,920 before 66 00:02:56,790 --> 00:02:54,869 hi i'm henry on your trip up to the 67 00:03:03,030 --> 00:02:56,800 space station you have to sit in your 68 00:03:07,030 --> 00:03:04,790 that's a good question so we were on the 69 00:03:08,790 --> 00:03:07,040 soyuz which is a russian spacecraft we 70 00:03:11,190 --> 00:03:08,800 had three of us in this really tiny 71 00:03:12,790 --> 00:03:11,200 vehicle all crammed in there and you do 72 00:03:14,149 --> 00:03:12,800 sit in your seat for a long time but 73 00:03:15,589 --> 00:03:14,159 thank goodness not the whole time 74 00:03:17,750 --> 00:03:15,599 because it took us a little over two 75 00:03:19,670 --> 00:03:17,760 days to get to the space station 76 00:03:21,830 --> 00:03:19,680 we did sit in our seats for i don't know 77 00:03:23,430 --> 00:03:21,840 maybe five six hours 78 00:03:25,670 --> 00:03:23,440 before we were allowed to kind of get 79 00:03:27,670 --> 00:03:25,680 out and get out of our spacesuits 80 00:03:29,270 --> 00:03:27,680 and get in more comfortable clothes for 81 00:03:34,149 --> 00:03:29,280 a little while until we got close to the 82 00:03:38,949 --> 00:03:37,509 hi i'm victoria how does the rocket find 83 00:03:46,149 --> 00:03:38,959 the space station 84 00:03:49,430 --> 00:03:47,830 well we have a lot of computers of 85 00:03:50,869 --> 00:03:49,440 course and sensors on board the 86 00:03:53,670 --> 00:03:50,879 spacecraft and we have a lot of 87 00:03:56,309 --> 00:03:53,680 satellites that we use also 88 00:03:57,830 --> 00:03:56,319 but really that the media that is all 89 00:03:59,670 --> 00:03:57,840 the people on the ground in the mission 90 00:04:01,270 --> 00:03:59,680 control centers make sure that we're in 91 00:04:03,589 --> 00:04:01,280 the right place and we're going in the 92 00:04:05,270 --> 00:04:03,599 right uh the right path to get to where 93 00:04:06,470 --> 00:04:05,280 we're supposed to go 94 00:04:08,789 --> 00:04:06,480 and they you know they're kind of 95 00:04:10,470 --> 00:04:08,799 watching over us thank goodness to make 96 00:04:12,470 --> 00:04:10,480 sure that the crew maybe doesn't do 97 00:04:14,470 --> 00:04:12,480 anything wrong but in general just to 98 00:04:16,390 --> 00:04:14,480 make sure we're on the right path 99 00:04:17,749 --> 00:04:16,400 all the sensors and all the satellites 100 00:04:19,990 --> 00:04:17,759 are telling us that we're where we're 101 00:04:22,550 --> 00:04:20,000 supposed to be and by doing that and 102 00:04:24,550 --> 00:04:22,560 firing our engines every now and then 103 00:04:26,870 --> 00:04:24,560 it allows us to line up 104 00:04:28,550 --> 00:04:26,880 exactly precisely like you mentioned to 105 00:04:35,670 --> 00:04:28,560 get to our destination which in this 106 00:04:39,350 --> 00:04:37,830 hi i'm griffin and what was the worst 107 00:04:44,950 --> 00:04:39,360 and what was the best experience you 108 00:04:48,710 --> 00:04:46,710 wow the worst we've had so many great 109 00:04:50,710 --> 00:04:48,720 experiences uh but maybe the worst is 110 00:04:52,550 --> 00:04:50,720 when we when our bathroom broke that was 111 00:04:54,469 --> 00:04:52,560 a really bad deal because we had a leak 112 00:04:56,070 --> 00:04:54,479 in the in the bathroom system and uh 113 00:04:58,230 --> 00:04:56,080 that was definitely probably the worst 114 00:05:00,790 --> 00:04:58,240 thing so far that's happened 115 00:05:02,629 --> 00:05:00,800 the best thing has been my crewmates 116 00:05:04,390 --> 00:05:02,639 i had three crewmates when i got here 117 00:05:05,590 --> 00:05:04,400 and they left shortly after we arrived 118 00:05:07,909 --> 00:05:05,600 and now we've 119 00:05:09,510 --> 00:05:07,919 gotten three more and just the pleasure 120 00:05:11,830 --> 00:05:09,520 of working with them every day and 121 00:05:15,670 --> 00:05:11,840 learning from them and just being a part 122 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:20,070 thank you 123 00:05:27,029 --> 00:05:22,070 hi i'm sam 124 00:05:33,670 --> 00:05:27,039 or any other instrument and did you 125 00:05:37,909 --> 00:05:35,909 i cannot play electrical guitar i played 126 00:05:39,029 --> 00:05:37,919 the trumpet when i was back in middle 127 00:05:40,870 --> 00:05:39,039 school 128 00:05:42,629 --> 00:05:40,880 but that's about it to my musical 129 00:05:44,870 --> 00:05:42,639 talents there are some instruments on 130 00:05:46,629 --> 00:05:44,880 board there is a guitar there's a 131 00:05:48,550 --> 00:05:46,639 keyboard that i know about and i think i 132 00:05:51,029 --> 00:05:48,560 heard there was a flute as well so there 133 00:06:00,070 --> 00:05:51,039 are some musically talented astronauts i 134 00:06:04,390 --> 00:06:02,550 hi i'm nathaniel 135 00:06:10,870 --> 00:06:04,400 what's your favorite experiment that 136 00:06:14,469 --> 00:06:12,629 we have a lot of experiments that we're 137 00:06:16,790 --> 00:06:14,479 kind of doing on our own bodies those 138 00:06:18,629 --> 00:06:16,800 are kind of unique and very cool 139 00:06:20,390 --> 00:06:18,639 i think that the one my favorite right 140 00:06:21,909 --> 00:06:20,400 now is i'm getting to grow lettuce in 141 00:06:23,670 --> 00:06:21,919 space 142 00:06:25,990 --> 00:06:23,680 so i've been doing that for about five 143 00:06:27,830 --> 00:06:26,000 to six weeks i think so far 144 00:06:30,070 --> 00:06:27,840 and a few weeks ago we got to harvest 145 00:06:31,670 --> 00:06:30,080 the lettuce and eat that for dinner one 146 00:06:34,230 --> 00:06:31,680 night so that was awesome it's still 147 00:06:35,670 --> 00:06:34,240 growing so actually tomorrow is our 148 00:06:37,909 --> 00:06:35,680 second harvest so we're going to have 149 00:06:39,670 --> 00:06:37,919 some lettuce for dinner tomorrow night 150 00:06:45,430 --> 00:06:39,680 which is a rare treat up here so we're 151 00:06:54,150 --> 00:06:48,230 hi i'm lila can you get bored and speak 152 00:06:57,430 --> 00:06:55,670 yeah you might think you get bored up 153 00:06:59,110 --> 00:06:57,440 here for five or six months however long 154 00:06:59,909 --> 00:06:59,120 your mission is but i haven't been bored 155 00:07:01,990 --> 00:06:59,919 yet 156 00:07:03,589 --> 00:07:02,000 we've been working really hard and doing 157 00:07:05,270 --> 00:07:03,599 great as a team getting through a lot of 158 00:07:06,710 --> 00:07:05,280 our tasks and actually getting ahead on 159 00:07:08,309 --> 00:07:06,720 other tasks 160 00:07:10,150 --> 00:07:08,319 that are coming up in the future we're 161 00:07:11,830 --> 00:07:10,160 just doing those ahead of time 162 00:07:14,070 --> 00:07:11,840 and so that's keeping us busy during the 163 00:07:16,629 --> 00:07:14,080 normal work day and then in the evenings 164 00:07:18,710 --> 00:07:16,639 we get together for dinners have a good 165 00:07:20,469 --> 00:07:18,720 time just enjoying each other's company 166 00:07:21,990 --> 00:07:20,479 one of our favorite things to do while 167 00:07:23,589 --> 00:07:22,000 we're up here in our free time is just 168 00:07:25,029 --> 00:07:23,599 look out the window at our beautiful 169 00:07:26,550 --> 00:07:25,039 planet earth 170 00:07:28,710 --> 00:07:26,560 and look at things like the super moon 171 00:07:30,790 --> 00:07:28,720 you may have seen over the last few days 172 00:07:32,070 --> 00:07:30,800 i'm really really spectacular from our 173 00:07:34,629 --> 00:07:32,080 vantage point 174 00:07:37,589 --> 00:07:34,639 we also have tv shows that we can get 175 00:07:39,110 --> 00:07:37,599 sent up to us and movies to watch 176 00:07:41,110 --> 00:07:39,120 if you want if you have some other free 177 00:07:42,950 --> 00:07:41,120 time and want to do those things 178 00:07:45,270 --> 00:07:42,960 but in general we don't get bored 179 00:07:46,710 --> 00:07:45,280 there's a lot to do and there's always 180 00:07:50,390 --> 00:07:46,720 science and research there's always 181 00:07:54,230 --> 00:07:50,400 taking pictures out the window as well 182 00:07:58,469 --> 00:07:56,869 hi my name is claudius do you have any 183 00:08:00,790 --> 00:07:58,479 disputes with your teammates on the 184 00:08:02,550 --> 00:08:00,800 spacecraft and if so 185 00:08:07,110 --> 00:08:02,560 what are they about and how do you solve 186 00:08:12,150 --> 00:08:08,629 could you repeat that question i'm sorry 187 00:08:15,990 --> 00:08:14,070 do you have any disputes with your 188 00:08:22,230 --> 00:08:16,000 teammates on the spacecraft and if so 189 00:08:26,070 --> 00:08:24,230 i kind of mentioned a little bit before 190 00:08:28,790 --> 00:08:26,080 i'm very fortunate to have incredible 191 00:08:30,710 --> 00:08:28,800 crewmates and we all get along and we 192 00:08:32,310 --> 00:08:30,720 train for a couple years now together 193 00:08:33,589 --> 00:08:32,320 prior to the mission so you really get 194 00:08:35,430 --> 00:08:33,599 to know each other 195 00:08:37,430 --> 00:08:35,440 uh and so far we haven't had any 196 00:08:40,550 --> 00:08:37,440 disputes i think when you feel that when 197 00:08:42,949 --> 00:08:40,560 you're in the spacecraft maybe uh 198 00:08:45,030 --> 00:08:42,959 the thing if if an emergency situation 199 00:08:46,949 --> 00:08:45,040 came up that could potentially be called 200 00:08:49,430 --> 00:08:46,959 a dispute but we are all trained very 201 00:08:51,269 --> 00:08:49,440 well to follow the procedures 202 00:08:52,949 --> 00:08:51,279 and there's somebody the commander is 203 00:08:54,710 --> 00:08:52,959 always the one in charge 204 00:08:56,949 --> 00:08:54,720 on the space station here that's me so 205 00:08:59,110 --> 00:08:56,959 if something were to happen then i i 206 00:09:00,870 --> 00:08:59,120 would be directing the rest of the team 207 00:09:07,269 --> 00:09:00,880 on getting through the procedure and 208 00:09:16,710 --> 00:09:09,829 hi my name is mika have you ever seen a 209 00:09:19,590 --> 00:09:18,070 i am looking forward to seeing the 210 00:09:22,150 --> 00:09:19,600 meteor hopefully one time when i'm in 211 00:09:23,670 --> 00:09:22,160 the window so far i have not seen one uh 212 00:09:25,990 --> 00:09:23,680 the coolest thing i think i've seen out 213 00:09:28,230 --> 00:09:26,000 the window was a thing called an aurora 214 00:09:29,990 --> 00:09:28,240 uh over the north atlantic one night we 215 00:09:32,310 --> 00:09:30,000 were looking through the window and it's 216 00:09:36,389 --> 00:09:32,320 this beautiful green kind of 217 00:09:37,829 --> 00:09:36,399 uh hazy glow that uh is on part of the 218 00:09:39,670 --> 00:09:37,839 the curvature of the earth it's just 219 00:09:40,949 --> 00:09:39,680 spectacular so i was lucky enough to see 220 00:09:46,630 --> 00:09:40,959 that but hopefully i'll get to see a 221 00:09:49,829 --> 00:09:48,470 hi my name is hannah what is the most 222 00:09:55,430 --> 00:09:49,839 challenging thing you have to do in 223 00:09:59,269 --> 00:09:57,590 very good question um i think physically 224 00:10:01,110 --> 00:09:59,279 challenging would probably be space 225 00:10:03,030 --> 00:10:01,120 walks and we're getting ready to do some 226 00:10:05,910 --> 00:10:03,040 of those here just after the the new 227 00:10:07,910 --> 00:10:05,920 year comes january 6th and january 13th 228 00:10:09,430 --> 00:10:07,920 right now are playing spacewalks so 229 00:10:12,310 --> 00:10:09,440 that's really physically challenging in 230 00:10:14,470 --> 00:10:12,320 this big spacesuit that weighs about 250 231 00:10:16,310 --> 00:10:14,480 to 300 pounds on earth up here doesn't 232 00:10:18,710 --> 00:10:16,320 weigh anything but it's still a big mass 233 00:10:20,550 --> 00:10:18,720 we have to to move around 234 00:10:22,550 --> 00:10:20,560 and actually work against the pressure 235 00:10:24,630 --> 00:10:22,560 of that spacesuit for about six or seven 236 00:10:26,630 --> 00:10:24,640 hours so physically that's probably the 237 00:10:29,030 --> 00:10:26,640 most demanding thing 238 00:10:30,710 --> 00:10:29,040 and sometimes when when major systems on 239 00:10:31,750 --> 00:10:30,720 board break those become very 240 00:10:33,430 --> 00:10:31,760 challenging 241 00:10:35,990 --> 00:10:33,440 days or maybe a couple days for the 242 00:10:37,990 --> 00:10:36,000 whole crew in order to repair maybe the 243 00:10:40,069 --> 00:10:38,000 oxygen generation 244 00:10:41,670 --> 00:10:40,079 assembly machine or the bathroom like i 245 00:10:43,030 --> 00:10:41,680 mentioned before 246 00:10:45,110 --> 00:10:43,040 so you never know what's going to be 247 00:10:46,870 --> 00:10:45,120 challenging and hopefully 248 00:10:49,670 --> 00:10:46,880 very few things like that will break but 249 00:10:53,350 --> 00:10:49,680 we've had a few of those already 250 00:11:02,710 --> 00:10:56,230 hi my name is tom what does the super 251 00:11:06,230 --> 00:11:04,630 it looks spectacular and we've been 252 00:11:07,990 --> 00:11:06,240 lucky enough to to get out in the 253 00:11:10,310 --> 00:11:08,000 windows a few times over the last few 254 00:11:12,310 --> 00:11:10,320 days to look at it one of my crewmates 255 00:11:14,870 --> 00:11:12,320 tomorrow pesky took some amazing 256 00:11:17,110 --> 00:11:14,880 pictures last night of the super moon 257 00:11:18,710 --> 00:11:17,120 and they're all over social media so if 258 00:11:20,870 --> 00:11:18,720 you have access to that or your parents 259 00:11:22,870 --> 00:11:20,880 do you can ask them to look it up and 260 00:11:29,670 --> 00:11:22,880 take a look at some of the pictures 261 00:11:33,750 --> 00:11:31,990 hi i'm rita what souvenirs would you 262 00:11:39,829 --> 00:11:33,760 like to bring home for yourself and your 263 00:11:51,430 --> 00:11:41,590 did you ask what souvenirs i would like 264 00:11:54,790 --> 00:11:53,350 is that the question i'm sorry what 265 00:11:56,550 --> 00:11:54,800 souvenirs 266 00:11:58,150 --> 00:11:56,560 yes that is the question 267 00:12:00,870 --> 00:11:58,160 um 268 00:12:03,110 --> 00:12:00,880 okay so i was able to bring uh several 269 00:12:05,110 --> 00:12:03,120 things with me from friends and family 270 00:12:07,190 --> 00:12:05,120 members um things like you know pictures 271 00:12:07,990 --> 00:12:07,200 of my family which are put up in my 272 00:12:09,430 --> 00:12:08,000 little 273 00:12:12,230 --> 00:12:09,440 bedroom but it's kind of like a 274 00:12:13,990 --> 00:12:12,240 miniature closet where we sleep 275 00:12:16,069 --> 00:12:14,000 i also have things from my favorite 276 00:12:18,949 --> 00:12:16,079 sports teams and my schools that i went 277 00:12:21,269 --> 00:12:18,959 to like t-shirts or jerseys or hats 278 00:12:22,230 --> 00:12:21,279 things like that and souvenirs from my 279 00:12:24,790 --> 00:12:22,240 favorite 280 00:12:26,150 --> 00:12:24,800 sports organizations so it kind of makes 281 00:12:28,470 --> 00:12:26,160 it a little more like home when you have 282 00:12:30,150 --> 00:12:28,480 things like that and i look forward to 283 00:12:32,069 --> 00:12:30,160 presenting some of those things back to 284 00:12:41,030 --> 00:12:32,079 the people that allowed me to fly them 285 00:12:47,269 --> 00:12:41,990 hi 286 00:12:47,279 --> 00:12:52,550 and why 287 00:12:56,470 --> 00:12:54,550 wow that's a great question so we have 288 00:12:58,949 --> 00:12:56,480 never been to another planet as human 289 00:13:00,870 --> 00:12:58,959 beings yet uh right now we're really 290 00:13:02,710 --> 00:13:00,880 working hard to try to get to mars here 291 00:13:05,350 --> 00:13:02,720 in the next few decades so 292 00:13:06,389 --> 00:13:05,360 when you folks are you know in your 20s 293 00:13:08,470 --> 00:13:06,399 and 30s 294 00:13:10,790 --> 00:13:08,480 hopefully we'll be sending uh human 295 00:13:12,790 --> 00:13:10,800 beings to mars which is the first planet 296 00:13:14,870 --> 00:13:12,800 besides earth that humans have been on 297 00:13:16,790 --> 00:13:14,880 so that'll be a really cool endeavor and 298 00:13:18,310 --> 00:13:16,800 maybe it'll be some of you that get to 299 00:13:20,389 --> 00:13:18,320 do

00:13:25,200 and being on your way to mars 303 00:13:29,190 --> 00:13:26,800 right now of course since we can't get 304 00:13:30,949 --> 00:13:29,200 there uh and i'm out in space my 305 00:13:33,030

our families and friends 317 00:14:07,750 --> 00:14:05,839 when we're up here but it would be 318 00:14:09,269 --> 00:14:07,760 really cool to have them here 319 00:14:15,590 --> 00:14:09,279 so if there's one thing i could change 320 00:14:19,990 --> 00:14:18,389 hi i'm grace have you ever had a space 321 00:14:21,670 --> 00:14:20,000 headache and 322 00:14:26,470 --> 00:14:21,680 what do they feel like and how long do 323 00:14:29,350 --> 00:14:27,670 i'm actually that's one of the 324 00:14:31,350 --> 00:14:29,360 experiments i'm working on as this 325 00:14:32,550 --> 00:14:31,360 experiment called space headaches i had 326 00:14:34,550 --> 00:14:32,560 a few 327 00:14:36,629 --> 00:14:34,560 shortly after i arrived 328 00:14:38,550 --> 00:14:36,639 but i really haven't had any sense and 329 00:14:39,990 --> 00:14:38,560 they felt you know just like a headache 330 00:14:41,430 --> 00:14:40,000 on earth there was very really nothing 331 00:14:43,829 --> 00:14:41,440 different 332 00:14:46,710 --> 00:14:43,839 i think the first few days i took some 333 00:14:48,710 --> 00:14:46,720 something like advil or ibuprofen to 334 00:14:52,150 --> 00:14:48,720 take care of it and after you know a few 335 00:14:57,430 --> 00:14:52,160 hours just like on earth it went away 336 00:15:10,069 --> 00:14:59,750 hi i'm aiden what is your favorite 337 00:15:13,910 --> 00:15:11,829 my favorite exercise well we have some 338 00:15:15,750 --> 00:15:13,920 great great machines on board here and 339 00:15:17,910 --> 00:15:15,760 i'll just mention the three main ones we 340 00:15:19,750 --> 00:15:17,920 have we have a stationary bike which is 341 00:15:22,069 --> 00:15:19,760 just to my left you probably can't see 342 00:15:24,710 --> 00:15:22,079 it too well we have a treadmill called 343 00:15:26,949 --> 00:15:24,720 t2 and we have a weightlifting machine 344 00:15:29,110 --> 00:15:26,959 that allows us to really do some amazing 345 00:15:31,350 --> 00:15:29,120 things like squats bench press shoulder 346 00:15:33,110 --> 00:15:31,360 press curls 347 00:15:34,790 --> 00:15:33,120 anything you can imagine and do on earth 348 00:15:35,670 --> 00:15:34,800 as one machine does and that's my 349 00:15:37,509 --> 00:15:35,680 favorite 350 00:15:39,509 --> 00:15:37,519 just because it really makes you feel 351 00:15:41,350 --> 00:15:39,519 like you had a great workout 352 00:15:43,030 --> 00:15:41,360 and you build your strength you continue 353 00:15:45,189 --> 00:15:43,040 to have your your muscle mass and your 354 00:15:47,030 --> 00:15:45,199 bone mass and bone density which if we 355 00:15:49,509 --> 00:15:47,040 didn't exercise up here that kind of 356 00:15:51,590 --> 00:15:49,519 stuff would deteriorate so i like that 357 00:15:53,910 --> 00:15:51,600 machine and it's called a red which 358 00:15:55,910 --> 00:15:53,920 stands for advanced resistive exercise 359 00:16:00,710 --> 00:15:55,920 device 360 00:16:05,110 --> 00:16:03,269 hi i'm bailey are there skills used as a 361 00:16:10,150 --> 00:16:05,120 sports coach that you use in the space 362 00:16:14,710 --> 00:16:11,829 well you can probably think of a couple 363 00:16:16,870 --> 00:16:14,720 um teamwork is a huge thing up here 364 00:16:19,430 --> 00:16:16,880 we as a crew of six on board right now 365 00:16:21,350 --> 00:16:19,440 are one team but really the team is much 366 00:16:23,509 --> 00:16:21,360 bigger than that all the mission control 367 00:16:25,670 --> 00:16:23,519 centers around the world are supporting 368 00:16:28,069 --> 00:16:25,680 us and they're all part of this team too 369 00:16:29,430 --> 00:16:28,079 so just having that experience of being 370 00:16:32,230 --> 00:16:29,440 a coach and trying to get a team 371 00:16:34,310 --> 00:16:32,240 together and get headed in one direction 372 00:16:36,870 --> 00:16:34,320 with a with a common goal 373 00:16:39,030 --> 00:16:36,880 is part of my part of my mission up here 374 00:16:40,949 --> 00:16:39,040 to make sure that our team is in sync 375 00:16:42,949 --> 00:16:40,959 with all the mission control centers on 376 00:16:44,470 --> 00:16:42,959 the ground to make sure that we're 377 00:16:47,030 --> 00:16:44,480 accomplishing the tasks that they would 378 00:16:49,670 --> 00:16:47,040 like us to do so yeah a lot of those 379 00:16:51,749 --> 00:16:49,680 traits and sports have really carried 380 00:16:53,749 --> 00:16:51,759 over in all assets of my life as i've 381 00:16:55,509 --> 00:16:53,759 gone through different phases 382 00:16:58,150 --> 00:16:55,519 so sports is a wonderful thing i think 383 00:17:03,189 --> 00:16:58,160 from that respect 384 00:17:07,909 --> 00:17:05,590 hi i'm denzel do you like all the space 385 00:17:15,590 --> 00:17:07,919 food if not what is your favorite and 386 00:17:20,069 --> 00:17:16,870 i'm sorry i missed the first part of 387 00:17:22,549 --> 00:17:20,079 your question could you repeat it again 388 00:17:24,150 --> 00:17:22,559 do you like all of the space food and is 389 00:17:29,110 --> 00:17:24,160 there one that you like best and one 390 00:17:33,029 --> 00:17:31,029 i've been very impressed with our with 391 00:17:35,430 --> 00:17:33,039 our food it's uh much different than the 392 00:17:37,510 --> 00:17:35,440 first time i flew it's really improved 393 00:17:39,750 --> 00:17:37,520 and we have so many great items and a 394 00:17:41,270 --> 00:17:39,760 lot of variety i think variety is the 395 00:17:42,950 --> 00:17:41,280 key otherwise you know if you just keep 396 00:17:44,549 --> 00:17:42,960 eating the same thing over and over 397 00:17:47,029 --> 00:17:44,559 everybody gets sick of it whether you're 398 00:17:48,310 --> 00:17:47,039 in space or on the earth so we're very 399 00:17:49,990 --> 00:17:48,320 fortunate 400 00:17:51,590 --> 00:17:50,000 we have a lot of great food i think one 401 00:17:54,310 --> 00:17:51,600 of my favorites is a thing called 402 00:17:56,230 --> 00:17:54,320 chicken strips and salsa so it's it 403 00:17:57,909 --> 00:17:56,240 comes in a pouch and you heat it up and 404 00:18:00,870 --> 00:17:57,919 you can put it on a tortilla and it's 405
