that are they're going to 53 00:02:05,270 --> 00:02:03,119 happen over the next seven or eight days 54 00:02:07,429 --> 00:02:05,280 the the ground teams 55 00:02:09,589 --> 00:02:07,439 on the back end of december were also 56 00:02:11,830 --> 00:02:09,599 very busy 57 00:02:13,589 --> 00:02:11,840 one of our primary missions for for this 58 00:02:16,470 --> 00:02:13,599 for this htv 59 00:02:19,270 --> 00:02:16,480 flight was to install the lithium-ion 60 00:02:21,670 --> 00:02:19,280 batteries and and last week 61 00:02:23,190 --> 00:02:21,680 our robotics teams the the ground the 62 00:02:25,670 --> 00:02:23,200 ground teams 63 00:02:28,390 --> 00:02:25,680 the operations the engineering and 64 00:02:30,309 --> 00:02:28,400 safety teams all did did great work over 65

ready to go to go do these evas 157 00:05:47,110 --> 00:05:45,199 um installing these lithium-ion 158 00:05:49,029 --> 00:05:47,120 batteries very very important for the 159 00:05:50,950 --> 00:05:49,039 program it's a nice 160 00:05:53,029 --> 00:05:50,960 step up from a technology standpoint it 161 00:05:54,550 --> 00:05:53,039 gives a little give us a little longer 162 00:05:57,110 --> 00:05:54,560 life life 163 00:06:00,309 --> 00:05:57,120 on the batteries going forward 164 00:06:02,870 --> 00:06:00,319 we can get them to orbit with a lot less 165 00:06:05,670 --> 00:06:02,880 volume and mass and so again just a lot 166 00:06:07,350 --> 00:06:05,680 of upside to us stepping up to this to 167 00:06:09,270 --> 00:06:07,360 this technology so 168 00:06:12,629 --> 00:06:09,280 we're looking forward to to completing 169 00:06:14,870 --> 00:06:12,639 the installation with these evas 170 00:06:16,790 --> 00:06:14,880 we at this this morning's mission 171 00:06:20,230 --> 00:06:16,800 management team meeting we did our 172 00:06:22,790 --> 00:06:20,240 standard eva readiness review and 173 00:06:23,990 --> 00:06:22,800 coming out of that review uh the 174 00:06:25,670

--> 00:07:35,199 december 31st 210 00:07:38,150 --> 00:07:36,080 so 211 00:07:40,710 --> 00:07:38,160 six batteries six lithium-ion batteries 212 00:07:41,830 --> 00:07:40,720 and six adapter plates uh were brought 213 00:07:42,950 --> 00:07:41,840 up on 214 00:07:47,909 --> 00:07:42,960 the 215 00:07:51,270 --> 00:07:47,919 konatori 6 or hdv6 216 00:07:53,110 --> 00:07:51,280 that arrived on station december 13th 217 00:07:54,150 --> 00:07:53,120 i think we have a video that kind of 218 00:07:55,990 --> 00:07:54,160 shows the 219 00:07:57,189 --> 00:07:56,000 robotics operations what's been 220 00:07:59,990 --> 00:07:57,199 happening 221 00:08:01,589 --> 00:08:00,000 just a taste of that 222 00:08:04,309 --> 00:08:01,599 that video 223 00:08:06,150 --> 00:08:04,319 here it is there we go 224 00:08:09,110 --> 00:08:06,160 so this just gives you an idea this is 225 00:08:10,790 --> 00:08:09,120 uh the the dexterous manipulator that's 226 00:08:13,830 --> 00:08:10,800 going into the external pallet that was 227 00:08:15,749 --> 00:08:13,840 delivered on contouring 6 228 00:08:17,029 --> 00:08:15,759 grabbing one of the lithium ion 229 00:08:18,309 --> 00:08:17,039 batteries 230 00:08:21,990 --> 00:08:18,319 with its 231 00:08:26,070 --> 00:08:22,000 arm 2 and then maneuvering over to the 232 00:08:27,830 --> 00:08:26,080 iea for the 3 alpha power channel 233 00:08:30,309 --> 00:08:27,840 it's going to install it to a slot that 234 00:08:32,630 --> 00:08:30,319 was previously left open 235 00:08:33,509 --> 00:08:32,640 in place and then i'll go go over and 236 00:08:35,430 --> 00:08:33,519 grab 237 00:08:38,790 --> 00:08:35,440 another battery that's one of the nickel 238 00:08:42,870 --> 00:08:40,550 take that out from the iea and then 239 00:08:45,910 --> 00:08:42,880 replace that put it on the the external 240 00:08:52,710 --> 00:08:45,920 pallet that was uh was 241 00:08:56,230 --> 00:08:54,710 uh each of the uh the eight power 242 00:08:58,230 --> 00:08:56,240 channels that the the station has 243 00:09:00,389 --> 00:08:58,240 contain three strings of batteries uh 244 00:09:02,710 --> 00:09:00,399 each battery string contains two nickel 245 00:09:04,550 --> 00:09:02,720 hydrogen battery units in series uh and 246 00:09:06,949 --> 00:09:04,560 each of those two nickel hydrogen 247 00:09:09,269 --> 00:09:06,959 batteries uh pairs will be replaced by 248 00:09:10,150 --> 00:09:09,279 one lithium-ion battery and one adapter 249 00:09:11,990 --> 00:09:10,160 plate 250 00:09:13,750 --> 00:09:12,000 to complete the power circuit 251 00:09:15,509 --> 00:09:13,760 there's a data link cable between the 252 00:09:18,230 --> 00:09:15,519 adapter plate and the lithium-ion 253 00:09:20,470 --> 00:09:18,240 battery and that provides additional 254 00:09:22,550 --> 00:09:20,480 battery parameter insight and the top of 255 00:09:25,509 --> 00:09:22,560 the adapter plate can be used as a 256 00:09:27,350 --> 00:09:25,519 storage spot for an old depleted nickel 257 00:09:28,790 --> 00:09:27,360 hydrogen battery 258 00:09:30,710 --> 00:09:28,800 let's see so with that i'll hand it over 259 00:09:33,590 --> 00:09:30,720 to gary horlocker who is the lead flight 260 00:09:35,110 --> 00:09:33,600 director for us spacewalk39 261 00:09:36,630 --> 00:09:35,120 okay thank you judd good afternoon 262 00:09:39,030 --> 00:09:36,640 everybody 263 00:09:40,389 --> 00:09:39,040 once eva one is complete the flight 264 00:09:41,990 --> 00:09:40,399 control team will go ahead and power up 265 00:09:43,110 --> 00:09:42,000 those new batteries verify everything 266 00:09:45,110 --> 00:09:43,120 looks good 267 00:09:46,470 --> 00:09:45,120 and then configure channel 3a back to a 268 00:09:48,630 --> 00:09:46,480 nominal configuration where it's 269 00:09:50,070 --> 00:09:48,640 supporting its own loads again 270 00:09:53,030 --> 00:09:50,080 at that point the team will shift its 271 00:09:54,389 --> 00:09:53,040 focus uh over to the 1a channel 272 00:09:56,389 --> 00:09:54,399 we have about a week's worth of work to 273 00:09:58,710 --> 00:09:56,399 get it prepared 274 00:09:59,910 --> 00:09:58,720 to send our guys out for the eva number 275 00:10:03,110 --> 00:09:59,920 two 276 00:10:04,710 --> 00:10:03,120 so starting saturday afternoon 277 00:10:06,949 --> 00:10:04,720 the robotics team will do a couple get 278 00:10:09,750 --> 00:10:06,959 ahead activities while we wait for those 279 00:10:11,910 --> 00:10:09,760 1a batteries uh to drain off and be in a 280 00:10:14,069 --> 00:10:11,920 good configuration to start the robotics 281 00:10:16,230 --> 00:10:14,079 they'll go ahead and release one of the 282 00:10:18,630 --> 00:10:16,240 two bolts on each of the lithium ion 283 00:10:20,069 --> 00:10:18,640 batteries on the ep and that'll get them 284 00:10:21,430 --> 00:10:20,079 ahead 285 00:10:23,590 --> 00:10:21,440 for a couple days down the road when 286 00:10:25,269 --> 00:10:23,600 they're about to go 287 00:10:27,910 --> 00:10:25,279 transition those batteries from the ep 288 00:10:30,230 --> 00:10:27,920 over to the new channel 289 00:10:31,910 --> 00:10:30,240 sunday afternoon the 1a old batteries 290 00:10:33,350 --> 00:10:31,920 should be all drained off and it'd be in 291 00:10:35,190 --> 00:10:33,360 a good configuration for the main 292 00:10:37,269 --> 00:10:35,200 robotics to begin 293 00:10:39,269 --> 00:10:37,279 and that team will take about four to 294 00:10:41,190 --> 00:10:39,279 five days to remove five of the old 295 00:10:43,750 --> 00:10:41,200 batteries from the 1a channel 296 00:10:46,389 --> 00:10:43,760 and install three the three new lithium 297 00:10:47,910 --> 00:10:46,399 ion batteries into that channel 298 00:10:50,150 --> 00:10:47,920 and once that's complete we'll be in a 299 00:10:52,710 --> 00:10:50,160 good configuration to send our space 300 00:10:56,870 --> 00:10:52,720 walkers out the door next friday 301 00:10:59,750 --> 00:10:56,880 to go ahead and do spacewalk number two 302 00:11:02,069 --> 00:10:59,760 for that spacewalk shane will be ev1 303 00:11:04,310 --> 00:11:02,079 that'll be his fourth spacewalk and 304 00:11:05,910 --> 00:11:04,320 tomorrow will be ev2 and that'll be his 305 00:11:08,230 --> 00:11:05,920 first spacewalk 306 00:11:10,230 --> 00:11:08,240 and again inside we'll have peggy and 307 00:11:12,150 --> 00:11:10,240 oleg helping out with both the suit up 308 00:11:14,870 --> 00:11:12,160 before the eva as well as the d suit 309 00:11:16,710 --> 00:11:14,880 after the eva 310 00:11:17,430 --> 00:11:16,720 the main objectives eva 2 are the same 311 00:11:19,430 --> 00:11:17,440 as 312 00:11:21,750 --> 00:11:19,440 eva1 effectively the crew is going to go 313 00:11:23,030 --> 00:11:21,760 out install the three adapter plates 314 00:11:24,310 --> 00:11:23,040 into the 315 00:11:26,230 --> 00:11:24,320 1 8 channel 316 00:11:27,829 --> 00:11:26,240 and again we're only leaving one old 317 00:11:29,829 --> 00:11:27,839 battery behind on this channel so 318 00:11:31,350 --> 00:11:29,839 they'll relocate that old 319 00:11:32,790 --> 00:11:31,360 old battery on top of one of the new 320 00:11:34,470 --> 00:11:32,800 adapter plates 321 00:11:37,030 --> 00:11:34,480 and once those tasks are complete the 322 00:11:38,550 --> 00:11:37,040 main objectives will be complete 323 00:11:40,389 --> 00:11:38,560 and as always if we have extra time 324 00:11:42,710 --> 00:11:40,399 we'll we'll go look at some of our 325 00:11:46,150 --> 00:11:42,720 get-ahead tasks that that we have in our 326 00:11:49,430 --> 00:11:48,069 after the eva we'll basically do the 327 00:11:51,110 --> 00:11:49,440 same thing flight control team will go 328 00:11:52,629 --> 00:11:51,120 ahead and activate those batteries check 329 00:11:55,190 --> 00:11:52,639 them out make sure everything looks good 330 00:11:58,150 --> 00:11:55,200 and then return channel 1a back to a 331 00:11:59,509 --> 00:11:58,160 normal configuration 332 00:12:02,230 --> 00:11:59,519 at that point there's still a little bit 333 00:12:04,150 --> 00:12:02,240 more robotic work to do 334 00:12:06,150 --> 00:12:04,160 we'll have three old batteries 335 00:12:07,350 --> 00:12:06,160 on the spdm 336 00:12:09,350 --> 00:12:07,360 being held they were waiting for the 337 00:12:10,710 --> 00:12:09,360 adapter plates to be removed from the ep 338 00:12:12,389 --> 00:12:10,720 so now there's there's a home to put 339 00:12:13,910 --> 00:12:12,399 those in for disposal 340 00:12:16,310 --> 00:12:13,920 and so the team will go ahead and take a 341 00:12:17,829 --> 00:12:16,320 couple days to install those into the ep 342 00:12:19,990 --> 00:12:17,839 and that'll put the ep in a good 343 00:12:21,430 --> 00:12:20,000 configuration to be installed back into 344 00:12:24,550 --> 00:12:21,440 htv for 345 00:12:26,629 --> 00:12:24,560 its release later in january 346 00:12:27,990 --> 00:12:26,639 and so with that i'll hand it over to 347 00:12:31,829 --> 00:12:28,000 keith and give you some more details 348 00:12:35,509 --> 00:12:34,710 okay thank you gary 349 00:12:40,550 --> 00:12:35,519 so 350 00:12:44,069 --> 00:12:40,560 this is uscva 38 and 39 it's the 196th 351 00:12:48,550 --> 00:12:44,079 and 197th space station assembly and 352 00:12:50,310 --> 00:12:48,560 maintenance eva for the the us team 353 00:12:52,629 --> 00:12:50,320 let's see we spent a lot of time in 354 00:12:54,230 --> 00:12:52,639 preparation for the cva working with the 355 00:12:55,829 --> 00:12:54,240 robotics team 356 00:12:58,629 --> 00:12:55,839 we went through all the nominal 357 00:13:01,190 --> 00:12:58,639 scenarios and all the the the backup 358 00:13:03,110 --> 00:13:01,200 scenarios and we came up with 359 00:13:05,750 --> 00:13:03,120 quite a list of 360 00:13:07,430 --> 00:13:05,760 failure trees to address should the 361 00:13:10,470 --> 00:13:07,440 robotics have any problems and the good 362 00:13:13,110 --> 00:13:10,480 news is that we got to this point today 363 00:13:15,910 --> 00:13:13,120 um with just one single bolt that's 364 00:13:17,750 --> 00:13:15,920 that's outside the the nominal and we're 365 00:13:19,670 --> 00:13:17,760 preparing to add that into our timeline 366 00:13:21,590 --> 00:13:19,680 to fix but 367 00:13:25,910 --> 00:13:21,600 let's see i'd like to roll my first 368 00:13:29,990 --> 00:13:28,550 shane kimbrough is ev1 as we talked 369 00:13:31,990 --> 00:13:30,000 about he'll have the red stripes he 370 00:13:33,829 --> 00:13:32,000 comes out first peggy will hand him a 371 00:13:36,389 --> 00:13:33,839 crew lock bag and then she'll come out 372 00:13:38,710 --> 00:13:36,399 with him with her own crew lock bag 373 00:13:40,550 --> 00:13:38,720 shane will start translating up 374 00:13:41,750 --> 00:13:40,560 our translation path that we call the 375 00:13:43,990 --> 00:13:41,760 sea to spur 376 00:13:46,150 --> 00:13:44,000 up to phase one of the truss 377 00:13:47,110 --> 00:13:46,160 and then translate out 378 00:13:48,790 --> 00:13:47,120 to 379 00:13:51,110 --> 00:13:48,800 the crew and equipment translation aid 380 00:13:53,350 --> 00:13:51,120 the cedar cart where he'll take his crew 381 00:13:56,550 --> 00:13:53,360 lock bag attach it to 382 00:13:58,550 --> 00:13:56,560 an articulating portable foot restraint 383 00:14:00,389 --> 00:13:58,560 and he'll take that whole bundle and 384 00:14:01,670 --> 00:14:00,399 he'll put it on his body restraint 385 00:14:04,310 --> 00:14:01,680 tether 386 00:14:06,629 --> 00:14:04,320 he'll translate farther out along 387 00:14:08,870 --> 00:14:06,639 the s1 truss 388 00:14:11,750 --> 00:14:08,880 and he'll change over to his second 389 00:14:12,470 --> 00:14:11,760 safety tether and continue out 390 00:14:15,189 --> 00:14:12,480 to 391 00:14:19,110 --> 00:14:15,199 the s4 truss which is where we'll start 392 00:14:25,030 --> 00:14:21,110 while he's doing that 393 00:14:29,030 --> 00:14:26,949 from the airlock 394 00:14:34,310 --> 00:14:29,040 and following him along the same 395 00:14:42,069 --> 00:14:36,790 she'll be going up the c to spur 396 00:14:45,829 --> 00:14:43,750 from there she continues all the way 397 00:14:48,629 --> 00:14:45,839 down to the end 398 00:14:51,269 --> 00:14:48,639 of s1 399 00:14:56,629 --> 00:14:51,279 and hooks up to her second safety tether 400 00:15:00,710 --> 00:14:58,389 once she's up there 401 00:15:02,389 --> 00:15:00,720 she takes her crew lock bag 402 00:15:04,230 --> 00:15:02,399 this contains all the tools she'll need 403 00:15:05,350 --> 00:15:04,240 to get the adapter plates ready for 404 00:15:07,590 --> 00:15:05,360 removal 405 00:15:13,509 --> 00:15:07,600 she temporarily stows it on a set of 406 00:15:18,069 --> 00:15:15,269 she'll take out a ratchet wrench and the 407 00:15:20,150 --> 00:15:18,079 first thing she does is she releases the 408 00:15:22,710 --> 00:15:20,160 torque on the adapter plates 409 00:15:24,150 --> 00:15:22,720 with a ratchet wrench 410 00:15:26,949 --> 00:15:24,160 and she'll work her way around and 411 00:15:39,509 --> 00:15:26,959 release all of the bolts 412 00:15:43,749 --> 00:15:41,829 in this video you can see the three old 413 00:15:45,430 --> 00:15:43,759 nickel hydrogen batteries to peggy's 414 00:15:46,790 --> 00:15:45,440 left in the view 415 00:15:52,829 --> 00:15:46,800 those are stored 416 00:15:57,189 --> 00:15:54,710 meanwhile 417 00:15:58,470 --> 00:15:57,199 back on the integrated equipment 418 00:16:00,629 --> 00:15:58,480 assembly 419 00:16:02,470 --> 00:16:00,639 shane will be taking his articulating 420 00:16:04,389 --> 00:16:02,480 portable foot restraint 421 00:16:06,829 --> 00:16:04,399 putting it in position where he'll use 422 00:16:09,670 --> 00:16:06,839 it he'll take the crew lock bag 423 00:16:11,509 --> 00:16:09,680 off and position it this has the tools 424 00:16:14,230 --> 00:16:11,519 in it that are needed for 425 00:16:17,350 --> 00:16:14,240 uh installation of the adapter plates 426 00:16:19,030 --> 00:16:17,360 on the integrated equipment assembly 427 00:16:21,590 --> 00:16:19,040 when shane's done with that we'll 428 00:16:24,470 --> 00:16:21,600 install some what we call scoops they're 429 00:16:26,790 --> 00:16:24,480 uh oru handling devices 430 00:16:28,790 --> 00:16:26,800 that's the first battery we'll move 431 00:16:31,269 --> 00:16:28,800 that from there he'll go up to 432 00:16:32,710 --> 00:16:31,279 the exposed pallet with peggy 433 00:16:34,310 --> 00:16:32,720 and the two of them will release the 434 00:16:36,550 --> 00:16:34,320 first adapter plate they'll put it on 435 00:16:38,870 --> 00:16:36,560 their body restraint tether 436 00:16:40,710 --> 00:16:38,880 and release the second adapter plate 437 00:16:42,790 --> 00:16:40,720 shane has that on his 438 00:16:45,509 --> 00:16:42,800 body restraint tether and then the two 439 00:16:57,990 --> 00:16:45,519 of them will make their way back out 440 00:17:09,990 --> 00:17:00,150 once they're at the work site 441 00:17:16,630 --> 00:17:12,390 peggy will hand him 442 00:17:21,510 --> 00:17:19,029 he'll drive two bolts 443 00:17:23,429 --> 00:17:21,520 to install that then we have the data 444 00:17:24,630 --> 00:17:23,439 link cable that the two of them will 445 00:17:26,630 --> 00:17:24,640 work together 446 00:17:29,830 --> 00:17:26,640 to attach the first 447 00:17:31,270 --> 00:17:29,840 lithium-ion battery to an adapter plate 448 00:17:32,950 --> 00:17:31,280 once that's done it gives us an 449 00:17:39,029 --> 00:17:32,960 opportunity to start the checkout 450 00:17:43,510 --> 00:17:40,950 shane egresses 451 00:17:45,750 --> 00:17:43,520 relocates or repositions his 452 00:17:48,150 --> 00:17:45,760 articulating portable foot restraint 453 00:17:53,669 --> 00:17:48,160 gets ready to release the first 454 00:18:02,310 --> 00:17:55,510 once that's released 455 00:18:05,669 --> 00:18:04,549 she holds on to it maintains control of 456 00:18:10,310 --> 00:18:05,679 it 457 00:18:11,669 --> 00:18:10,320 portable foot restraint back over the 458 00:18:13,270 --> 00:18:11,679 adapter plate 459 00:18:20,549 --> 00:18:13,280 once he's there peggy hands in the 460 00:18:30,470 --> 00:18:22,470 and he puts it in position on top of the 461 00:18:38,470 --> 00:18:32,470 from there 462 00:18:45,909 --> 00:18:41,990 takes his adapter plate 463 00:18:48,310 --> 00:18:45,919 and installs it on the iea 464 00:18:51,110 --> 00:18:48,320 once his two bolts are driven 465 00:18:53,430 --> 00:18:51,120 he releases the data link cable and he 466 00:18:55,029 --> 00:18:53,440 and peggy attach it to that lithium-ion 467 00:18:56,470 --> 00:18:55,039 battery 468 00:18:59,110 --> 00:18:56,480 at that point 469 00:19:00,950 --> 00:18:59,120 we have two good battery sets and the 470 00:19:03,029 --> 00:19:00,960 the channel is operable at that point 471 00:19:05,909 --> 00:19:03,039 but we continue on 472 00:19:08,710 --> 00:19:05,919 they release the last nickel hydrogen 473 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:13,029 on this channel 474 00:19:13,039 --> 00:19:17,909 shane hands it up to peggy 475 00:19:21,750 --> 00:19:19,590 then he repositions the articulating 476 00:19:26,950 --> 00:19:21,760 portable foot restraint 477 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:32,710 and he installs it 478 00:19:36,150 --> 00:19:34,230 from there the two crew members make 479 00:19:39,990 --> 00:19:36,160 their way back up 480 00:19:47,029 --> 00:19:42,630 and they retrieve the last 481 00:19:50,630 --> 00:19:48,789 they cleans up the work site collects 482 00:19:52,470 --> 00:19:50,640 all the tools 483 00:19:57,270 --> 00:19:52,480 puts the crew lock bag 484 00:20:02,630 --> 00:20:00,150 and the two of them return back out 485 00:20:05,270 --> 00:20:02,640 to the integrated equipment assembly 486 00:20:08,710 --> 00:20:05,280 shane installs the last adapter plate 487 00:20:13,029 --> 00:20:08,720 they hook up the data link cable 488 00:20:17,029 --> 00:20:14,549 of the batteries 489 00:20:20,470 --> 00:20:17,039 on the 3a channel 490 00:20:22,390 --> 00:20:20,480 piggy starts cleanup meanwhile 491 00:20:23,830 --> 00:20:22,400 shane goes to the other side of the 492 00:20:25,990 --> 00:20:23,840 channel 493 00:20:27,990 --> 00:20:26,000 to the 1a side 494 00:20:29,750 --> 00:20:28,000 and he prepares the last 495 00:20:31,669 --> 00:20:29,760 bolt to drive 496 00:20:33,350 --> 00:20:31,679 on the 1a channel the robotics did all 497 00:20:35,029 --> 00:20:33,360 the rest of them 498 00:20:37,029 --> 00:20:35,039 once he's released that bolt they meet 499 00:20:39,510 --> 00:20:37,039 back up again clean up the work site and 500 00:20:40,870 --> 00:20:39,520 they head back to the airlock peggy goes 501 00:20:44,789 --> 00:20:40,880 in first 502 00:20:48,549 --> 00:20:47,110 if we have time at the end of the eva 503 00:20:50,230 --> 00:20:48,559 we'll do some get-aheads but i'll talk 504 00:20:52,950 --> 00:20:50,240 about those in a bit 505 00:20:54,230 --> 00:20:52,960 the second eva is is very similar to the 506 00:20:55,430 --> 00:20:54,240 first dva 507 00:20:57,510 --> 00:20:55,440 um 508 00:20:59,830 --> 00:20:57,520 with the the hopes that the robotics 509 00:21:02,149 --> 00:20:59,840 does all of the the moves and all the 510 00:21:04,310 --> 00:21:02,159 relocations of batteries we hope to have 511 00:21:07,510 --> 00:21:04,320 two open slots instead of one open slot 512 00:21:11,990 --> 00:21:07,520 the way we did on eva 38 i have a video 513 00:21:15,990 --> 00:21:14,230 shane comes out first 514 00:21:17,190 --> 00:21:16,000 on his fourth eva he'll have the red 515 00:21:19,750 --> 00:21:17,200 stripes 516 00:21:20,870 --> 00:21:19,760 uh tomah pesquet this is his first dva 517 00:21:23,110 --> 00:21:20,880 he'll have the 518 00:21:25,430 --> 00:21:23,120 completely white suit they'll do a buddy 519 00:21:27,270 --> 00:21:25,440 check at the airlock 520 00:21:31,830 --> 00:21:27,280 they'll head out the same translation 521 00:21:38,149 --> 00:21:33,510 shane will go out to the integrated 522 00:21:43,350 --> 00:21:40,470 he'll do the same articulating portable 523 00:21:49,990 --> 00:21:43,360 foot restraint setup 524 00:21:53,510 --> 00:21:51,350 you can see that there were two open 525 00:21:55,110 --> 00:21:53,520 slots there the arm is full of batteries 526 00:21:57,830 --> 00:21:55,120 at that point 527 00:22:01,190 --> 00:21:57,840 tomah is up at the exposed pallet 528 00:22:03,270 --> 00:22:01,200 releasing the bolts and preparing 529 00:22:04,710 --> 00:22:03,280 they release the two 530 00:22:06,310 --> 00:22:04,720 adapter plates 531 00:22:07,990 --> 00:22:06,320 and each crew member gets one of the 532 00:22:09,590 --> 00:22:08,000 adapter plates they make their way back 533 00:22:12,070 --> 00:22:09,600 out again 534 00:22:17,350 --> 00:22:12,080 and they follow a very similar eva to 535 00:22:19,830 --> 00:22:19,029 remove 536 00:22:23,430 --> 00:22:19,840 the 537 00:22:26,310 --> 00:22:23,440 old last nickel hydrogen battery 538 00:22:49,590 --> 00:22:26,320 and install it on the adapter plate take 539 00:22:53,350 --> 00:22:51,110 then the crew members will make their 540 00:22:55,990 --> 00:22:53,360 way back up 541 00:22:58,870 --> 00:22:56,000 to the exposed pallet 542 00:23:01,750 --> 00:22:58,880 to retrieve the last 543 00:23:05,430 --> 00:23:03,190 they'll put it on their body restraint 544 00:23:06,789 --> 00:23:05,440 tether they'll retrieve the tools in the 545 00:23:08,710 --> 00:23:06,799 crew lock bag 546 00:23:12,710 --> 00:23:08,720 and do an inventory and then head back 547 00:23:17,430 --> 00:23:14,470 they'll install the last adapter plate 548 00:23:19,510 --> 00:23:17,440 hook up the data link cable 549 00:23:22,630 --> 00:23:19,520 retrieve all the tools 550 00:23:24,630 --> 00:23:22,640 and the crew lock bags 551 00:23:27,990 --> 00:23:24,640 retrieve the articulating portable foot 552 00:23:31,430 --> 00:23:30,230 we'll stow that back on 553 00:23:39,909 --> 00:23:31,440 the crew 554 00:23:42,630 --> 00:23:41,510 then both crew members will make their 555 00:23:44,549 --> 00:23:42,640 way 556 00:23:49,990 --> 00:23:44,559 back to the airlock 557 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:58,870 followed by shane 558 00:24:04,470 --> 00:24:02,310 and that completes eva2 559 00:24:06,789 --> 00:24:04,480 we expect to have more time 560 00:24:09,350 --> 00:24:06,799 at the end of uh eva 2 to perform the 561 00:24:11,430 --> 00:24:09,360 get-ahead tasks that gary mentioned um 562 00:24:14,390 --> 00:24:11,440 we have a list of uh 563 00:24:16,390 --> 00:24:14,400 of quite a few tasks that 564 00:24:18,230 --> 00:24:16,400 have we have available to us in our job 565 00:24:21,110 --> 00:24:18,240 jar 566 00:24:25,029 --> 00:24:21,120 to start with i'll run a video that will 567 00:24:27,590 --> 00:24:25,039 show you a cable routing task and then 568 00:24:30,149 --> 00:24:27,600 see the light retrieval 569 00:24:33,590 --> 00:24:30,159 and then i'll show some graphics after 570 00:24:37,990 --> 00:24:35,909 our first get ahead 571 00:24:39,830 --> 00:24:38,000 we send the crew members 572 00:24:47,510 --> 00:24:39,840 up to uh 573 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:51,430 and he's going to climb into 574 00:24:51,440 --> 00:25:00,230 the s0 truss 575 00:25:06,149 --> 00:25:02,950 these are the the mdm 576 00:25:09,110 --> 00:25:06,159 epic cables that will be installed on a 577 00:25:10,870 --> 00:25:09,120 later eva when those mdm's get changed 578 00:25:12,230 --> 00:25:10,880 out we're just pre-positioning them on 579 00:25:15,430 --> 00:25:12,240 this eva 580 00:25:17,909 --> 00:25:15,440 v2 is going to make their way up to 581 00:25:21,590 --> 00:25:17,919 the z1 582 00:25:23,430 --> 00:25:21,600 element in what we call uh the rats nest 583 00:25:25,590 --> 00:25:23,440 and it's called that because of all the 584 00:25:27,990 --> 00:25:25,600 jumble of cables that are are located in 585 00:25:31,110 --> 00:25:28,000 that area and this is where a previous 586 00:25:33,830 --> 00:25:31,120 eva dropped a bundle of cables and 587 00:25:35,430 --> 00:25:33,840 wrapped handrails around 588 00:25:37,510 --> 00:25:35,440 we're going to continue the routing of 589 00:25:39,990 --> 00:25:37,520 those cables by 590 00:25:41,269 --> 00:25:40,000 taking them off of that location 591 00:25:48,710 --> 00:25:41,279 and then 592 00:25:51,750 --> 00:25:50,390 and passing it 593 00:25:53,350 --> 00:25:51,760 inside 594 00:25:56,310 --> 00:25:53,360 the truss 595 00:25:58,230 --> 00:25:56,320 where the other crew member is waiting 596 00:26:04,950 --> 00:25:58,240 we'll take two of the three cables and 597 00:26:10,950 --> 00:26:07,190 once those are handed in the other crew 598 00:26:12,710 --> 00:26:10,960 member will take those cables 599 00:26:14,789 --> 00:26:12,720 and route them 600 00:26:16,870 --> 00:26:14,799 inside 601 00:26:19,190 --> 00:26:16,880 to another set of handrails 602 00:26:20,630 --> 00:26:19,200 and this will just make it easier 603 00:26:22,470 --> 00:26:20,640 for 604 00:26:24,950 --> 00:26:22,480 the eva where they come out to install 605 00:26:26,470 --> 00:26:24,960 these these mdm's 606 00:26:28,230 --> 00:26:26,480 they can just reach in and grab these 607 00:26:35,750 --> 00:26:28,240 cables they'll be wire tied to an 608 00:26:40,310 --> 00:26:37,190 meanwhile 609 00:26:42,230 --> 00:26:40,320 the last cable will be routed over to 610 00:26:46,789 --> 00:26:42,240 another handrail that's uh 611 00:26:51,350 --> 00:26:49,190 and that's one of our get-aheads 612 00:26:53,029 --> 00:26:51,360 that we have on our list 613 00:26:56,710 --> 00:26:53,039 the next 614 00:26:59,190 --> 00:26:56,720 let's see we're also i guess cleaning up 615 00:27:07,909 --> 00:26:59,200 those cables routing them out of the way 616 00:27:12,470 --> 00:27:09,990 the next task that we have is a one crew 617 00:27:13,510 --> 00:27:12,480 member task to retrieve the seat of 618 00:27:15,350 --> 00:27:13,520 light 619 00:27:18,149 --> 00:27:15,360 that's located on 620 00:27:20,389 --> 00:27:18,159 the s3 truss it's internal it has two 621 00:27:22,710 --> 00:27:20,399 electrical connectors i mean sorry one 622 00:27:25,750 --> 00:27:22,720 electrical connector and one bolt to 623 00:27:29,029 --> 00:27:25,760 drive we'll put that in a an oru bag and 624 00:27:29,990 --> 00:27:29,039 bring that back inside 625 00:27:31,990 --> 00:27:30,000 the next 626 00:27:34,870 --> 00:27:32,000 get ahead task that we have on our list 627 00:27:37,029 --> 00:27:34,880 is node three shields we have 628 00:27:39,110 --> 00:27:37,039 two bundle sets i've got some pictures 629 00:27:43,350 --> 00:27:39,120 that i'd like to show 630 00:27:46,389 --> 00:27:43,360 these are intended to in an eventual eva 631 00:27:49,190 --> 00:27:46,399 be placed on the the pma3 or pma 632 00:27:51,430 --> 00:27:49,200 location once that's removed 633 00:27:53,269 --> 00:27:51,440 but they take up a lot of airlock volume 634 00:27:54,870 --> 00:27:53,279 so this eva is a good opportunity 635 00:27:56,710 --> 00:27:54,880 because we're not bringing any hardware 636 00:27:57,669 --> 00:27:56,720 out with us or or in 637 00:27:59,990 --> 00:27:57,679 so 638 00:28:02,870 --> 00:28:00,000 we've taken the time to bundle these up 639 00:28:04,630 --> 00:28:02,880 into what you see in the in the last of 640 00:28:06,470 --> 00:28:04,640 the three pictures there 641 00:28:08,149 --> 00:28:06,480 we've got tethers 642 00:28:10,549 --> 00:28:08,159 wrapped around it pulling it into a 643 00:28:12,789 --> 00:28:10,559 tight bundle so it once it's in the air 644 00:28:15,350 --> 00:28:12,799 lock it takes up a lot of space 645 00:28:18,549 --> 00:28:15,360 so we'd like to get that outside and 646 00:28:20,549 --> 00:28:18,559 tethered outside the airlock 647 00:28:22,630 --> 00:28:20,559 next slide 648 00:28:24,950 --> 00:28:22,640 and this shows the the on orbit video of 649 00:28:26,870 --> 00:28:24,960 what the crew put together 650 00:28:29,269 --> 00:28:26,880 in this bundle 651 00:28:31,029 --> 00:28:29,279 next slide 652 00:28:33,750 --> 00:28:31,039 the crew members will hand this out of 653 00:28:37,190 --> 00:28:33,760 the airlock and it'll go just 654 00:28:38,470 --> 00:28:37,200 aft and zenith of the airlock hatch on 655 00:28:42,710 --> 00:28:38,480 the handrails 656 00:28:46,389 --> 00:28:45,350 the next pictures that i have are the 657 00:28:48,149 --> 00:28:46,399 ams 658 00:28:50,070 --> 00:28:48,159 photo task 659 00:28:52,710 --> 00:28:50,080 the ams is 660 00:28:55,909 --> 00:28:52,720 collecting wonderful science but it's 661 00:28:58,389 --> 00:28:55,919 its cooling system is having problems so 662 00:29:01,190 --> 00:28:58,399 on a future eva crew members plan to go 663 00:29:02,230 --> 00:29:01,200 out here and do a pretty intricate 664 00:29:05,190 --> 00:29:02,240 repair 665 00:29:07,669 --> 00:29:05,200 of the alpha magnetic spectrometer 666 00:29:10,310 --> 00:29:07,679 but in order to do that eva we need to 667 00:29:13,590 --> 00:29:10,320 collect photos of 668 00:29:16,070 --> 00:29:13,600 the external ams to see some of the work 669 00:29:18,070 --> 00:29:16,080 sites and and what needs to be done 670 00:29:20,389 --> 00:29:18,080 and we've provided the crew members on 671 00:29:21,990 --> 00:29:20,399 board with these images and they'll go 672 00:29:23,750 --> 00:29:22,000 up on um 673 00:29:46,070 --> 00:29:23,760 the 674 00:29:49,990 --> 00:29:46,950 and 675 00:29:53,029 --> 00:29:50,000 so we hope to use these pictures to 676 00:29:56,470 --> 00:29:53,039 develop the the eva to repair this 677 00:30:00,630 --> 00:29:57,909 some of the cables that they'll be 678 00:30:04,470 --> 00:30:00,640 looking for to to take pictures 679 00:30:05,830 --> 00:30:04,480 and the last get ahead task that we have 680 00:30:06,950 --> 00:30:05,840 is 681 00:30:09,590 --> 00:30:06,960 the 682 00:30:12,310 --> 00:30:09,600 crew light pan tilt assembly 683 00:30:13,990 --> 00:30:12,320 this was is a failed camera that used to 684 00:30:17,350 --> 00:30:14,000 be up on 685 00:30:18,870 --> 00:30:17,360 the ssrms and the arm removed that and 686 00:30:22,389 --> 00:30:18,880 replaced it on 687 00:30:25,269 --> 00:30:22,399 the mobile transporter relay assembly 688 00:30:26,149 --> 00:30:25,279 and it is so it's pre-positioned there 689 00:30:28,549 --> 00:30:26,159 for the 690 00:30:29,430 --> 00:30:28,559 crew members to bring out a spare 691 00:30:32,389 --> 00:30:29,440 will 692 00:30:34,870 --> 00:30:32,399 remove the failed unit off of the mtra 693 00:30:36,549 --> 00:30:34,880 and replace it with the new unit and 694 00:30:39,269 --> 00:30:36,559 then once that's done 695 00:30:42,070 --> 00:30:39,279 the arm will take that and reinstall it 696 00:30:47,830 --> 00:30:45,190 and that's all i have 697 00:30:49,830 --> 00:30:47,840 okay thank you keith now as is tradition 698 00:30:51,430 --> 00:30:49,840 we'll open up the floor for questions if 699 00:30:54,710 --> 00:30:51,440 you're on the phone bridge and you have 700 00:30:56,549 --> 00:30:54,720 a question press star one to get into 701 00:30:58,149 --> 00:30:56,559 the queue but we'll start here in the 702 00:30:59,750 --> 00:30:58,159 room gina 703 00:31:04,389 --> 00:30:59,760 what are the pros and cons to having 704 00:31:09,110 --> 00:31:07,269 well from uh from an overall efficiency 705 00:31:10,950 --> 00:31:09,120 standpoint uh 706 00:31:11,669 --> 00:31:10,960 when we go outside evas are one of the 707 00:31:13,590 --> 00:31:11,679 most 708 00:31:15,750 --> 00:31:13,600 dangerous things that that we do as a 709 00:31:16,870 --> 00:31:15,760 program so anytime we can 710 00:31:19,269 --> 00:31:16,880 we can 711 00:31:21,830 --> 00:31:19,279 use you station assets that are not the 712 00:31:23,350 --> 00:31:21,840 crew to go do a task then then that's a 713 00:31:25,190 --> 00:31:23,360 certainly certainly something we want to 714 00:31:27,430 --> 00:31:25,200 endeavor to do not just from an 715 00:31:29,110 --> 00:31:27,440 efficiency standpoint but also from a 716 00:31:31,909 --> 00:31:29,120 safety standpoint so 717 00:31:33,590 --> 00:31:31,919 so clearly we'd like to continue to to 718 00:31:34,549 --> 00:31:33,600 learn more and more about how to use 719 00:31:37,110 --> 00:31:34,559 dexter 720 00:31:40,149 --> 00:31:37,120 and our robotics capability and and make 721 00:31:43,029 --> 00:31:40,159 as many of these tasks robotically uh 722 00:31:44,789 --> 00:31:43,039 capable as we can so it's a it's a big 723 00:31:46,630 --> 00:31:44,799 it's a big deal for us every time we do 724 00:31:48,789 --> 00:31:46,640 one of these and and that team is just 725 00:31:50,549 --> 00:31:48,799 continuing to to evolve and get better 726 00:31:51,430 --> 00:31:50,559 at their tasks so it's a it's really 727 00:31:54,950 --> 00:31:51,440 good 728 00:31:57,190 --> 00:31:54,960 between what the astronauts can do and 729 00:31:58,870 --> 00:31:57,200 then what a robot like dexter can do and 730 00:32:01,990 --> 00:31:58,880 how they can work together 731 00:32:03,669 --> 00:32:02,000 absolutely again when you go out eva you 732 00:32:05,110 --> 00:32:03,679 only have so much time to go out and we 733 00:32:08,070 --> 00:32:05,120 never have enough time to do all the 734 00:32:09,110 --> 00:32:08,080 things that we'd like to do so if we can 735 00:32:10,950 --> 00:32:09,120 if we can 736 00:32:12,710 --> 00:32:10,960 partner with the robotics 737 00:32:15,350 --> 00:32:12,720 capability i mean that's the best 738 00:32:18,549 --> 00:32:15,360 solution for for the for the entire 739 00:32:20,230 --> 00:32:18,559 program it allows us to do the things 740 00:32:22,389 --> 00:32:20,240 with evas that we absolutely don't have 741 00:32:24,710 --> 00:32:22,399 a choice to do but our goal would be to 742 00:32:26,830 --> 00:32:24,720 to whittle down that number of things as 743 00:32:29,350 --> 00:32:26,840 we as we move forward in the 744 00:32:31,110 --> 00:32:29,360 program this may be a weird question but 745 00:32:33,190 --> 00:32:31,120 what are the advantages to upgrading to 746 00:32:35,110 --> 00:32:33,200 the lithium batteries 747 00:32:37,669 --> 00:32:35,120 durability length 748 00:32:39,350 --> 00:32:37,679 brightness if you look at the batteries 749 00:32:40,870 --> 00:32:39,360 themselves certainly getting into orbit 750 00:32:42,310 --> 00:32:40,880 we're just getting started on on 751 00:32:45,029 --> 00:32:42,320 changing out these batteries we've got a 752 00:32:47,269 --> 00:32:45,039 lot of batteries on orbit and 753 00:32:49,029 --> 00:32:47,279 with these different sets of arrays and 754 00:32:51,269 --> 00:32:49,039 and uh the batteries themselves volume 755 00:32:53,430 --> 00:32:51,279 wise are smaller they're lighter mass 756 00:32:57,830 --> 00:32:53,440 wise a pair of nickel hydrogens they're 757 00:33:01,750 --> 00:32:57,840 about 730 740 pounds uh one one lithium 758 00:33:04,710 --> 00:33:01,760 ion is uh one lithium ion is 430 pounds 759 00:33:06,310 --> 00:33:04,720 so you can almost get get you know a 760 00:33:08,950 --> 00:33:06,320 three or four hundred pound buyback in 761 00:33:11,509 --> 00:33:08,960 terms of the of the of the the mass that 762 00:33:12,950 --> 00:33:11,519 you have to launch launch to orbit so so 763 00:33:15,110 --> 00:33:12,960 from that standpoint it's much better 764 00:33:17,669 --> 00:33:15,120 capacity wise they're much better 765 00:33:19,430 --> 00:33:17,679 batteries we can go longer 766 00:33:21,990 --> 00:33:19,440 one of the things that 767 00:33:23,990 --> 00:33:22,000 gives us fit sometimes when we have 768 00:33:26,230 --> 00:33:24,000 different vehicles arriving to station 769 00:33:27,509 --> 00:33:26,240 we have to to lock the serges and so 770 00:33:29,750 --> 00:33:27,519 forth and we're always worried about 771 00:33:31,509 --> 00:33:29,760 battery capacity this is something that 772 00:33:34,310 --> 00:33:31,519 with better capacity we don't have to do 773 00:33:35,990 --> 00:33:34,320 as many power downs and so operationally 774 00:33:37,590 --> 00:33:36,000 it's going to be better better off for 775 00:33:40,389 --> 00:33:37,600 us too so 776 00:33:43,029 --> 00:33:40,399 from a cost perspective it's a they're 777 00:33:44,470 --> 00:33:43,039 they're cheaper than the nickel hydrogen 778 00:33:46,470 --> 00:33:44,480 when you when you look at the numbers 779 00:33:48,389 --> 00:33:46,480 and the and the volume of nickel 780 00:33:50,710 --> 00:33:48,399 hydrogens that we'd have to buy versus 781 00:33:53,029 --> 00:33:50,720 the number of lithium ion lithium ions 782 00:33:55,430 --> 00:33:53,039 so so on the cost front it's cheaper as 783 00:33:59,430 --> 00:33:57,590 also uh one of the other things that as 784 00:34:00,149 --> 00:33:59,440 we started down this path that 785 00:34:03,909 --> 00:34:00,159 of 786 00:34:06,070 --> 00:34:03,919 things we started looking at was was 787 00:34:07,190 --> 00:34:06,080 obsolescence when it comes to nickel 788 00:34:08,710 --> 00:34:07,200 hydrogen 789 00:34:10,550 --> 00:34:08,720 we were starting to run into some some 790 00:34:12,950 --> 00:34:10,560 parts issues on the on the nickel 791 00:34:14,389 --> 00:34:12,960 hydrogen side so again it just made all 792 00:34:16,069 --> 00:34:14,399 the sense in the world when we when we 793 00:34:19,109 --> 00:34:16,079 went down this path several years ago 794 00:34:20,470 --> 00:34:19,119 and and as somebody mentioned in the in 795 00:34:22,790 --> 00:34:20,480 the mission management team this morning 796 00:34:23,990 --> 00:34:22,800 it's it's nice to see see us culminate 797 00:34:25,190 --> 00:34:24,000 with finally getting these things on 798 00:34:27,430 --> 00:34:25,200 orbit because we they've been in the 799 00:34:28,389 --> 00:34:27,440 queue for quite a while 800 00:34:34,629 --> 00:34:28,399 mark 801 00:34:36,470 --> 00:34:34,639 two questions first as you look ahead 802 00:34:38,869 --> 00:34:36,480 even approximately how long is it going 803 00:34:43,030 --> 00:34:38,879 to take to replace all 48 if i have the 804 00:34:45,589 --> 00:34:44,550 we'll be doing this over the next couple 805 00:34:47,109 --> 00:34:45,599 of years 806 00:34:49,190 --> 00:34:47,119 we've got another set that we'll have to 807 00:34:50,710 --> 00:34:49,200 do late at the very end this year and 808 00:34:52,550 --> 00:34:50,720 next year a large part of this is when 809 00:34:55,030 --> 00:34:52,560 can we get them to orbit so we'll be 810 00:34:57,030 --> 00:34:55,040 doing this over the next couple of years 811 00:35:00,069 --> 00:34:57,040 swapping these batteries out and 812 00:35:01,910 --> 00:35:00,079 and depending on how these performs they 813 00:35:04,230 --> 00:35:01,920 perform these lithium ions then we'll 814 00:35:06,390 --> 00:35:04,240 start to to figure out how how far these 815 00:35:08,230 --> 00:35:06,400 batteries get us and from a life of the 816 00:35:09,910 --> 00:35:08,240 program standpoint and then and then we 817 00:35:12,310 --> 00:35:09,920 can figure out when to to put in the 818 00:35:13,430 --> 00:35:12,320 next changeouts from a lithium-ion 819 00:35:15,190 --> 00:35:13,440 standpoint 820 00:35:16,390 --> 00:35:15,200 but we'll be looking at nickel hydrogens 821 00:35:18,150 --> 00:35:16,400 and swapping those out for the next 822 00:35:19,270 --> 00:35:18,160 couple of years 823 00:35:21,829 --> 00:35:19,280 and 824 00:35:24,150 --> 00:35:21,839 just regarding the extension 825 00:35:27,910 --> 00:35:24,160 of the station operation 826 00:35:30,150 --> 00:35:27,920 itself the 2020 to 2024 increment that 827 00:35:31,910 --> 00:35:30,160 you're preparing for now that everyone's 828 00:35:35,589 --> 00:35:31,920 signed off on 829 00:35:37,910 --> 00:35:35,599 how essential to making that success 830 00:35:40,550 --> 00:35:37,920 successful or effective 831 00:35:42,310 --> 00:35:40,560 efficient operations is it to have these 832 00:35:44,630 --> 00:35:42,320 new batteries 833 00:35:46,870 --> 00:35:44,640 going into place and 834 00:35:51,430 --> 00:35:46,880 you know if you can take it out to the 835 00:35:53,190 --> 00:35:51,440 possibility of even going beyond 2024 836 00:35:54,950 --> 00:35:53,200 how important is it to have this new 837 00:35:56,470 --> 00:35:54,960 equipment well it's 838 00:35:58,230 --> 00:35:56,480 hugely important for 839 00:35:59,829 --> 00:35:58,240 a lot because of the reasons i mentioned 840 00:36:01,670 --> 00:35:59,839 earlier just the the ease of getting 841 00:36:04,310 --> 00:36:01,680 these to orbit versus getting the others 842 00:36:05,910 --> 00:36:04,320 i mean that's that's up mass cost uh 843 00:36:07,430 --> 00:36:05,920 that that 844 00:36:09,109 --> 00:36:07,440 that's cost avoidance from that 845 00:36:10,470 --> 00:36:09,119 standpoint and as you get deeper into 846 00:36:13,109 --> 00:36:10,480 the program you're looking to reduce 847 00:36:15,109 --> 00:36:13,119 costs you're not trying to increase cost 848 00:36:16,870 --> 00:36:15,119 also the longevity 849 00:36:18,870 --> 00:36:16,880 these lithium ion batteries if we're 850 00:36:21,750 --> 00:36:18,880 looking at maybe nine to ten years 851 00:36:24,390 --> 00:36:21,760 versus the six or so that we look at for 852 00:36:26,230 --> 00:36:24,400 the the nickel hydrogen that's that's a 853 00:36:27,990 --> 00:36:26,240 that in and of itself is going to allow 854 00:36:30,630 --> 00:36:28,000 us to 855 00:36:33,430 --> 00:36:30,640 potentially you know may you know reduce 856 00:36:34,950 --> 00:36:33,440 cost and and make that decision 857 00:36:37,190 --> 00:36:34,960 on downstream once we see how they 858 00:36:38,630 --> 00:36:37,200 perform on orbit but you know we're 859 00:36:40,790 --> 00:36:38,640 we're definitely looking at multiple 860 00:36:43,430 --> 00:36:40,800 years of performance beyond what the 861 00:36:46,950 --> 00:36:43,440 nickel hydrogens do so that's a 862 00:36:50,550 --> 00:36:48,870 okay it doesn't look like we have any 863 00:36:52,230 --> 00:36:50,560 questions on the phone bridge yet again 864 00:36:54,470 --> 00:36:52,240 if you're dialed in and you have one 865 00:36:55,430 --> 00:36:54,480 please press star one to get into the 866 00:36:56,550 --> 00:36:55,440 queue 867 00:36:58,390 --> 00:36:56,560 i guess we can go ahead and take a 868 00:36:59,990 --> 00:36:58,400 couple of questions from social media 869 00:37:01,430 --> 00:37:00,000 real quick haley 870 00:37:02,630 --> 00:37:01,440 awesome so just a reminder keep 871 00:37:04,790 --> 00:37:02,640 submitting your questions with the 872 00:37:05,990 --> 00:37:04,800 hashtag ask nasa we've already got a lot 873 00:37:08,550 --> 00:37:06,000 of great ones 874 00:37:11,510 --> 00:37:08,560 andre on facebook is wondering what will 875 00:37:13,510 --> 00:37:11,520 happen to the old batteries 876 00:37:16,310 --> 00:37:13,520 the old batteries um 877 00:37:18,630 --> 00:37:16,320 there's uh part of them will be um 878 00:37:21,829 --> 00:37:18,640 removed from station with the with on 879 00:37:23,990 --> 00:37:21,839 the htv external pallet once uh once the 880 00:37:25,270 --> 00:37:24,000 evas are completed we'll robotically 881 00:37:27,109 --> 00:37:25,280 take that pallet with some of the old 882 00:37:29,589 --> 00:37:27,119 batteries put it back in the htv and 883 00:37:31,270 --> 00:37:29,599 when we set the htv free here at the end 884 00:37:34,069 --> 00:37:31,280 of the month those batteries will go 885 00:37:35,589 --> 00:37:34,079 with it but but we'll retain 886 00:37:37,510 --> 00:37:35,599 i believe six of them 887 00:37:39,030 --> 00:37:37,520 will remain on station that the right 888 00:37:40,550 --> 00:37:39,040 number three three 889 00:37:42,870 --> 00:37:40,560 three tunnels three and i don't get 890 00:37:44,150 --> 00:37:42,880 disposed of on the pallet with the htv 891 00:37:45,990 --> 00:37:44,160 um when it 892 00:37:47,589 --> 00:37:46,000 re-enters the atmosphere another three 893 00:37:49,589 --> 00:37:47,599 again we just don't have space on the 894 00:37:52,150 --> 00:37:49,599 htv vehicle so they'll be stored on 895 00:37:55,109 --> 00:37:52,160 board permanently paul on twitter is 896 00:38:01,030 --> 00:37:55,119 wondering how are astronauts chosen for 897 00:38:06,710 --> 00:38:03,670 so the the chief of the astronaut office 898 00:38:08,950 --> 00:38:06,720 uh primarily makes uh those decisions in 899 00:38:10,470 --> 00:38:08,960 in consultation with the the lead flight 900 00:38:13,510 --> 00:38:10,480 directors and also 901 00:38:14,630 --> 00:38:13,520 um uh there's a panel of of 902 00:38:15,750 --> 00:38:14,640 eva 903 00:38:17,430 --> 00:38:15,760 instructors 904 00:38:21,670 --> 00:38:17,440 and such that 905 00:38:24,630 --> 00:38:23,270 i think cole meant this one more for the 906 00:38:27,030 --> 00:38:24,640 astronauts but i think it applies to 907 00:38:28,310 --> 00:38:27,040 mission control as well um on twitter 908 00:38:29,990 --> 00:38:28,320 she says i know you have a lot of 909 00:38:31,670 --> 00:38:30,000 important tasks to complete but do you 910 00:38:35,190 --> 00:38:31,680 ever have a chance to just enjoy the 911 00:38:40,230 --> 00:38:38,069 well i i certainly i've got a huge tv in 912 00:38:43,349 --> 00:38:40,240 my office so i live 913 00:38:45,190 --> 00:38:43,359 and it's always good to 914 00:38:47,030 --> 00:38:45,200 keep it in your mind what we do day in 915 00:38:49,349 --> 00:38:47,040 and day out so some of the the views 916 00:38:52,069 --> 00:38:49,359 that we get in what we call the six pack 917 00:38:53,430 --> 00:38:52,079 which has the six different camera views 918 00:38:55,510 --> 00:38:53,440 usually there's one or two of them 919 00:38:57,430 --> 00:38:55,520 trained at the earth and 920 00:38:59,270 --> 00:38:57,440 again it's uh when we got our high 921 00:39:01,670 --> 00:38:59,280 definition capability 922 00:39:03,430 --> 00:39:01,680 cameras on board here 923 00:39:06,630 --> 00:39:03,440 during the last eva it's uh it's 924 00:39:08,069 --> 00:39:06,640 breathtaking to look at that and again 925 00:39:09,589 --> 00:39:08,079 it certainly makes it a little easier to 926 00:39:11,270 --> 00:39:09,599 come in during the day and walk into 927 00:39:13,349 --> 00:39:11,280 your your office that has no windows 928 00:39:15,670 --> 00:39:13,359 when you can look up and see see those 929 00:39:16,950 --> 00:39:15,680 kinds of views uh there on the tv so 930 00:39:18,470 --> 00:39:16,960 anyway i've heard 931 00:39:20,550 --> 00:39:18,480 from the crew members on board there's 932 00:39:21,829 --> 00:39:20,560 nothing it's a it's there's nothing 933 00:39:24,069 --> 00:39:21,839 quite light looking at the earth from 934 00:39:25,589 --> 00:39:24,079 their view um but uh 935 00:39:27,030 --> 00:39:25,599 anyway it's it's pretty cool for those 936 00:39:30,230 --> 00:39:27,040 of us on the ground to get to see a day 937 00:39:31,190 --> 00:39:30,240 in and day out from from there too 938 00:39:32,630 --> 00:39:31,200 all right i think we have one more 939 00:39:34,630 --> 00:39:32,640 follow-up in the room and then we'll be 940 00:39:38,390 --> 00:39:34,640 ready to wrap up mark 941 00:39:40,230 --> 00:39:38,400 yeah thank you mark for aviation again 942 00:39:42,630 --> 00:39:40,240 how does the 943 00:39:45,190 --> 00:39:42,640 choreography the robotic human 944 00:39:47,670 --> 00:39:45,200 choreography that's involved here 945 00:39:49,510 --> 00:39:47,680 so to compare historically with either 946 00:39:51,190 --> 00:39:49,520 other maintenance or other maintenance 947 00:39:53,430 --> 00:39:51,200 and construction 948 00:39:55,990 --> 00:39:53,440 activities of the life of the program i 949 00:39:58,790 --> 00:39:56,000 think i heard some early comments that 950 00:40:00,870 --> 00:39:58,800 you know there's a lot of intricate 951 00:40:02,630 --> 00:40:00,880 work involved in this and i'm just 952 00:40:03,910 --> 00:40:02,640 looking for a sense of what you guys 953 00:40:07,829 --> 00:40:03,920 think is 954 00:40:10,630 --> 00:40:09,430 well i think 955 00:40:12,630 --> 00:40:10,640 throughout through the history of the 956 00:40:14,069 --> 00:40:12,640 program um 957 00:40:15,910 --> 00:40:14,079 you know when we started the program we 958 00:40:18,230 --> 00:40:15,920 were already pretty good at evas i mean 959 00:40:19,910 --> 00:40:18,240 the the team has learned a lot through 960 00:40:22,950 --> 00:40:19,920 the the building a space station but the 961 00:40:25,030 --> 00:40:22,960 reality is is that the the 962 00:40:26,309 --> 00:40:25,040 the eva part of things was pretty well 963 00:40:27,910 --> 00:40:26,319 understood and 964 00:40:29,990 --> 00:40:27,920 people have continued to fine tune that 965 00:40:31,430 --> 00:40:30,000 robotics is an area where if you look 966 00:40:33,990 --> 00:40:31,440 through the history of the program that 967 00:40:35,510 --> 00:40:34,000 that team is has continued to evolve uh 968 00:40:39,109 --> 00:40:35,520 just in terms of their knowledge of how 969 00:40:41,750 --> 00:40:39,119 to how to work with the arm um the uh 970 00:40:43,109 --> 00:40:41,760 when we got dexter again you know you 971 00:40:45,270 --> 00:40:43,119 had an arm and then all of a sudden you 972 00:40:47,430 --> 00:40:45,280 have a hand and fingers too and that's 973 00:40:50,230 --> 00:40:47,440 uh pretty incredible and it's uh it's 974 00:40:52,470 --> 00:40:50,240 just been a learning process and again 975 00:40:54,069 --> 00:40:52,480 you know it's an impressive group and 976 00:40:56,069 --> 00:40:54,079 it's an impressive set of hardware that 977 00:40:58,870 --> 00:40:56,079 our canadian friends have delivered to 978 00:41:01,109 --> 00:40:58,880 the program and um again 979 00:41:03,190 --> 00:41:01,119 we want to continue to try to push 980 00:41:04,630 --> 00:41:03,200 more and more on the robotics side of 981 00:41:06,630 --> 00:41:04,640 things just because 982 00:41:08,710 --> 00:41:06,640 you know if we're not out doing ebas 983 00:41:10,870 --> 00:41:08,720 then that that keeps crews inside to do 984 00:41:12,790 --> 00:41:10,880 science and so that's uh that's what 985 00:41:15,109 --> 00:41:12,800 we're we're trying to push as much as we 986 00:41:17,109 --> 00:41:15,119 possibly can so anyway i just look for 987 00:41:18,870 --> 00:41:17,119 that to continue to grow and now it's 988 00:41:21,910 --> 00:41:18,880 something that we've gotten better at 989 00:41:25,829 --> 00:41:24,390 okay that's it for here in the room i 990 00:41:27,190 --> 00:41:25,839 think we're going to go ahead and wrap 991 00:41:29,430 --> 00:41:27,200 up then 992 00:41:31,349 --> 00:41:29,440 of course his first eva taking place 993 00:41:33,670 --> 00:41:31,359 this friday so be sure to tune in our 994 00:41:37,349 --> 00:41:33,680 coverage on nasa tv is going to kick off 995 00:41:39,030 --> 00:41:37,359 at 4 30 a.m central time 5 30 a.m 996 00:41:40,710 --> 00:41:39,040 eastern as you heard they should be 997 00:41:44,390 --> 00:41:40,720 getting out of the door shortly after 998 00:41:46,950 --> 00:41:44,400 the 6 o'clock hour central 7 a.m eastern 999 00:41:49,990 --> 00:41:46,960 time and as always you can head over to 1000 00:41:51,750 --> 00:41:50,000 our website at nasa.gov station for all 1001 00:41:53,670 --> 00:41:51,760 of the latest updates on these 1002 00:41:55,589 --> 00:41:53,680 spacewalks and everything else taking 1003 00:41:57,349 --> 00:41:55,599 place onboard the international space 1004 00:41:59,109 --> 00:41:57,359 station so be sure to tune in this 1005 00:42:00,710 --> 00:41:59,119 friday and follow along thank you for 1006 00:42:02,550 --> 00:42:00,720 joining us this afternoon and thank you 1007 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:02,560 to all of my briefers that will do it
