introducing our first student with a

17
00:00:53,110 --> 00:00:49,520
question for you if that's okay

18

he is uh nick becker he's a senior and

19
00:00:57,270 --> 00:00:55,280
like like you when you were a student

20
00:00:58,790 --> 00:00:57,280
here he's interested in flight and

21
00:01:00,630 --> 00:00:58,800
aeronautics

22
00:01:03,590 --> 00:01:00,640
and may well be on the same kind of

23
00:01:05,109 --> 00:01:03,600
journey you are today so nick becker has

24
00:01:06,469 --> 00:01:05,119
the first question for you shane but

25
00:01:11,750 --> 00:01:06,479
thank you for doing this for us and

26
00:01:16,390 --> 00:01:14,070
thanks billy

27
00:01:17,990 --> 00:01:16,400
hi mr kimbrough i was wondering what is

28
00:01:20,550 --> 00:01:18,000
your favorite experiment that you've

29
00:01:21,670 --> 00:01:20,560
done or planned to do on the iss and how

30
00:01:25,749 --> 00:01:21,680
does that compare to your shuttle

31
00:01:29,190 --> 00:01:27,429
well we have a lot more time up here on

32
00:01:30,630 --> 00:01:29,200
this mission compared to the shuttle

33
00:01:32,870 --> 00:01:30,640
mission so we'll do hundreds of

34
00:01:35,270 --> 00:01:32,880
experiments in my five to six months up

35
00:01:37,830 --> 00:01:35,280
here um so far i think my favorite one

36
00:01:40,789 --> 00:01:37,840
has been we got to i got to grow some

37
00:01:42,870 --> 00:01:40,799
plants up here so i grew some lettuce

38
00:01:44,789 --> 00:01:42,880
so i kind of felt like matt damon a bit

39
00:01:46,789 --> 00:01:44,799
in the martian but we grew some plants

40
00:01:48,069 --> 00:01:46,799
we got to harvest them and we got to eat

41
00:01:49,910 --> 00:01:48,079
the lettuce while we were up here so

42
00:01:55,749 --> 00:01:49,920
that was a welcome treat to our normal

43
00:02:01,910 --> 00:01:58,630
hello my name is davis hayden

44
00:02:04,469 --> 00:02:01,920
what what was it like to orbit earth

45
00:02:09,430 --> 00:02:04,479
for two days before your soyu docked to

46
00:02:13,670 --> 00:02:11,510
yeah to me those were a long couple days

47
00:02:15,110 --> 00:02:13,680
we're in a very very tiny spacecraft

48
00:02:17,190 --> 00:02:15,120
developed by the russians called the

49
00:02:19,270 --> 00:02:17,200
soyuz like you mentioned and there's not

50
00:02:21,110 --> 00:02:19,280
a lot to do in there and your three

51
00:02:23,190 --> 00:02:21,120
people are in that tiny

52
00:02:24,790 --> 00:02:23,200
area for a couple days so we just kind

53
00:02:26,390 --> 00:02:24,800
of got acclimated to the space

54
00:02:27,430 --> 00:02:26,400
environment and microgravity a little

55
00:02:29,030 --> 00:02:27,440
bit

56
00:02:30,470 --> 00:02:29,040
but in general it was just a long two

57
00:02:32,390 --> 00:02:30,480
days before we got here to the space

58
00:02:37,990 --> 00:02:32,400
station

59
00:02:41,350 --> 00:02:39,750
my name is adam young

60
00:02:47,030 --> 00:02:41,360
where is your favorite place to hang out

61
00:02:52,070 --> 00:02:49,509
well this this entire complex is so

62
00:02:53,750 --> 00:02:52,080
unique and so cool but my favorite place

63
00:02:55,910 --> 00:02:53,760
and i think most astronauts favorite

64
00:02:57,270 --> 00:02:55,920
place is hanging out in a module called

65
00:02:59,190 --> 00:02:57,280
the cupola

66
00:03:00,949 --> 00:02:59,200
and it's just a module full of windows

67
00:03:03,350 --> 00:03:00,959
so if you get a chance to look it up

68
00:03:06,790 --> 00:03:03,360
online you'll see why it's our favorite

69
00:03:08,790 --> 00:03:06,800
so it's like a 360 degree window

70
00:03:10,550 --> 00:03:08,800
module it's a pretty small module but it

71
00:03:19,350 --> 00:03:10,560
looks down at earth all the time so we

72
00:03:23,589 --> 00:03:21,670
hello my name is montana dickerson how

73
00:03:28,070 --> 00:03:23,599
do you brush your teeth on

74
00:03:31,350 --> 00:03:29,509
all right get into the good basic

75
00:03:33,270 --> 00:03:31,360
questions now but these are good so we

76
00:03:34,949 --> 00:03:33,280
brush the brush our teeth the same way

77
00:03:36,789 --> 00:03:34,959
but we have a little problem that we

78
00:03:38,149 --> 00:03:36,799
don't have on earth so up here we don't

79
00:03:39,910 --> 00:03:38,159
have any sinks

80
00:03:40,789 --> 00:03:39,920
so you got a couple options you can

81
00:03:42,789 --> 00:03:40,799
either

82
00:03:44,630 --> 00:03:42,799
whatever's in your mouth you can spit it

83
00:03:46,789 --> 00:03:44,640
out into a napkin but that gets pretty

84
00:03:48,869 --> 00:03:46,799
messy up here so most folks

85
00:03:50,470 --> 00:03:48,879
including myself choose to just swallow

86
00:03:53,509 --> 00:03:50,480
it so i'll be looking forward to a sink

87
00:03:56,949 --> 00:03:53,519
here when i get back to earth

88
00:04:01,270 --> 00:03:59,350
hello my name is isabella moffitt is

89
00:04:06,070 --> 00:04:01,280
there a trash can on the space station

90
00:04:10,070 --> 00:04:07,990
so we have a lot of ways to collect our

91
00:04:11,830 --> 00:04:10,080
trash there's tomah pesquet

92
00:04:13,190 --> 00:04:11,840
franchise are not floating by one of my

93
00:04:14,390 --> 00:04:13,200
crewmates

94
00:04:16,310 --> 00:04:14,400
there's a lot of ways and we have to

95
00:04:17,990 --> 00:04:16,320
manage our trash very carefully because

96
00:04:19,909 --> 00:04:18,000
otherwise it's just a mess up here and

97
00:04:22,629 --> 00:04:19,919
things are all over the place

98
00:04:24,950 --> 00:04:22,639
so what we do in general is separate our

99
00:04:27,270 --> 00:04:24,960
dry and our wet trash so our dry trash

100
00:04:29,510 --> 00:04:27,280
meaning paper or maybe clothes things

101
00:04:31,830 --> 00:04:29,520
like that wet trash meaning anything

102
00:04:34,230 --> 00:04:31,840
that could smell in a week or a month or

103
00:04:35,510 --> 00:04:34,240
three months from now so food containers

104
00:04:38,310 --> 00:04:35,520
and things like that so we try to

105
00:04:40,710 --> 00:04:38,320
operate those um and keep those clean

106
00:04:42,710 --> 00:04:40,720
and then we put our trash in these cargo

107
00:04:44,310 --> 00:04:42,720
vehicles that come up every so often so

108
00:04:46,310 --> 00:04:44,320
we have a japanese cargo vehicle

109
00:04:48,310 --> 00:04:46,320
attached right now it's going to leave

110
00:04:50,550 --> 00:04:48,320
here at the end of january so before it

111
00:04:52,469 --> 00:04:50,560
leaves we're going to put all or all or

112
00:04:54,830 --> 00:04:52,479
whatever we can of our trash on board

113
00:04:59,670 --> 00:04:54,840
that vehicle to take it

114
00:05:08,710 --> 00:05:02,150
my name is caroline colavito how do you

115
00:05:12,790 --> 00:05:10,950
another tricky thing to do but uh what's

116
00:05:14,390 --> 00:05:12,800
kind of cool is when you just put water

117
00:05:15,909 --> 00:05:14,400
on your hair and you do it out of a

118
00:05:17,350 --> 00:05:15,919
drink bag and we'll talk about that here

119
00:05:19,270 --> 00:05:17,360
in a minute too but it comes in a bag

120
00:05:21,350 --> 00:05:19,280
like this and it's just water

121
00:05:23,029 --> 00:05:21,360
um so you just squirt it out onto your

122
00:05:25,029 --> 00:05:23,039
head and the cool thing is it doesn't go

123
00:05:27,830 --> 00:05:25,039
anywhere the surface tension allows it

124
00:05:29,990 --> 00:05:27,840
to stay on your head um so you can wash

125
00:05:31,350 --> 00:05:30,000
it that way we also have shampoo that we

126
00:05:33,270 --> 00:05:31,360
use it's a little different than the

127
00:05:35,510 --> 00:05:33,280
shampoo you use on earth so it's not so

128
00:05:37,430 --> 00:05:35,520
foamy and things don't go everywhere

129
00:05:39,189 --> 00:05:37,440
so we use that in a comb i use that in

130
00:05:41,189 --> 00:05:39,199
combination with some water to wash my

131
00:05:44,550 --> 00:05:41,199
hair every day

132
00:05:49,189 --> 00:05:47,110
hi my name is libby stewart and i was

133
00:05:53,909 --> 00:05:49,199
wondering if you experienced weather in

134
00:05:57,510 --> 00:05:55,830
so on the space station here we don't

135
00:05:58,950 --> 00:05:57,520
experience weather it's always pretty

136
00:06:01,110 --> 00:05:58,960
much the same temperature it's very

137
00:06:02,870 --> 00:06:01,120
comfortable about 72 degrees kind of

138
00:06:04,309 --> 00:06:02,880
like your school is or an office

139
00:06:06,150 --> 00:06:04,319
building would be

140
00:06:07,590 --> 00:06:06,160
and we can regulate it if we want up and

141
00:06:10,070 --> 00:06:07,600
down a little bit but in general it's

142
00:06:12,230 --> 00:06:10,080
very consistent uh we do from this

143
00:06:14,550 --> 00:06:12,240
vantage point though get to see weather

144
00:06:16,870 --> 00:06:14,560
on the earth we get to see from above

145
00:06:19,590 --> 00:06:16,880
thunderstorms and tropical storms and

146
00:06:21,430 --> 00:06:19,600
hurricanes and things like that really

147
00:06:23,029 --> 00:06:21,440
spectacular looking but we know the

148
00:06:24,710 --> 00:06:23,039
devastation a lot of those cause on

149
00:06:28,309 --> 00:06:24,720
earth

150
00:06:33,990 --> 00:06:30,469
hello i'm caroline williams and this is

151
00:06:35,909 --> 00:06:34,000
davis dundee we have two questions

152
00:06:41,110 --> 00:06:35,919
how do you take a shower in space and

153
00:06:44,790 --> 00:06:43,270
all right showering is very tough

154
00:06:46,550 --> 00:06:44,800
because we don't have showers a lot of

155
00:06:48,390 --> 00:06:46,560
people don't know that so

156
00:06:50,710 --> 00:06:48,400
we're pretty much going five six months

157
00:06:53,029 --> 00:06:50,720
without a real shower but what we do is

158
00:06:55,749 --> 00:06:53,039
we get a towel or a washcloth

159
00:06:57,749 --> 00:06:55,759
and you either wet it down

160
00:07:00,230 --> 00:06:57,759
by the the water bag like i mentioned

161
00:07:02,150 --> 00:07:00,240
before and then you put we have a kind

162
00:07:03,189 --> 00:07:02,160
of liquid soap that comes in a pouch

163
00:07:04,950 --> 00:07:03,199
like this

164
00:07:07,189 --> 00:07:04,960
so you also put that on your towel and

165
00:07:08,870 --> 00:07:07,199
then you just wipe your body down

166
00:07:11,189 --> 00:07:08,880
so you do that and then you'll wash your

167
00:07:13,029 --> 00:07:11,199
hair typically every day and we usually

168
00:07:15,029 --> 00:07:13,039
do it after we work out so we work out

169
00:07:17,270 --> 00:07:15,039
for about two to two and a half hours

170
00:07:18,790 --> 00:07:17,280
every day and we're pretty sweaty by the

171
00:07:21,990 --> 00:07:18,800
end of that so that's obviously a great

172
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,830
thank you

173
00:07:35,189 --> 00:07:28,309
hi my name is ashna lol how do you sleep

174
00:07:39,110 --> 00:07:36,390
so i missed the first part of your

175
00:07:44,230 --> 00:07:39,120
question could you repeat that again

176
00:07:47,830 --> 00:07:46,309
all right how do you sleep in space um

177
00:07:49,830 --> 00:07:47,840
so we have sleeping bags and i brought

178
00:07:52,469 --> 00:07:49,840
mine out here to show everybody

179
00:07:53,589 --> 00:07:52,479
um so here's our sleeping bag and and we

180
00:07:56,070 --> 00:07:53,599
have a little

181
00:07:57,670 --> 00:07:56,080
closet i would call it uh closet shape

182
00:07:59,670 --> 00:07:57,680
that's our bedroom so we all have a kind

183
00:08:02,070 --> 00:07:59,680
of a private place we can go and you

185
00:08:05,510 --> 00:08:03,919
of the walls and you can do it upside

186
00:08:08,070 --> 00:08:05,520
down right side up it doesn't matter

187
00:08:10,550 --> 00:08:08,080
because there's no up or down in space

188
00:08:12,230 --> 00:08:10,560
so whatever is more comfortable for you

189
00:08:13,670 --> 00:08:12,240
and also in there you have a laptop

190
00:08:15,749 --> 00:08:13,680
where you can do your email and things

191
00:08:18,230 --> 00:08:15,759
like that so it's kind of a nice private

192
00:08:22,070 --> 00:08:18,240
place to go to sleep and

193
00:08:26,869 --> 00:08:22,080
call home potentially or do emails

194
00:08:31,830 --> 00:08:29,110
hi i'm rex wilson and this is lainey

195
00:08:34,389 --> 00:08:31,840
mcdowell we have two questions for you

196
00:08:38,829 --> 00:08:34,399
what foods do you miss in space how does

197
00:08:42,870 --> 00:08:41,269
work all right so a good question on the

198
00:08:44,149 --> 00:08:42,880
salt shaker i happen to bring one for

199
00:08:47,030 --> 00:08:44,159
you so

200
00:08:48,710 --> 00:08:47,040
um everything up here like salt is

201
00:08:50,310 --> 00:08:48,720
actually in liquid form so we have

202
00:08:51,670 --> 00:08:50,320
liquid salt which comes in a little

203
00:08:53,350 --> 00:08:51,680
bottle like this

204
00:08:55,990 --> 00:08:53,360
and then you just open the cap and you

205
00:08:58,150 --> 00:08:56,000
just squirt the salt or whatever

206
00:09:00,230 --> 00:08:58,160
condiment that you like we have pretty

207
00:09:02,230 --> 00:09:00,240
much everything up here and you squirt

208
00:09:03,750 --> 00:09:02,240
that on your food and once you do that

209
00:09:04,949 --> 00:09:03,760
it'll stick to your food so that's a

210
00:09:06,710 --> 00:09:04,959
good thing

211
00:09:08,790 --> 00:09:06,720
and then you kind of mix it up with your

212
00:09:12,150 --> 00:09:08,800
spoon or fork and then eat it and i

213
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:19,190
what foods do you miss in space

214
00:09:22,710 --> 00:09:20,710
i'm sorry it's not coming through clear

215
00:09:28,790 --> 00:09:22,720
up here for some reason

216
00:09:31,910 --> 00:09:31,030
what foods you miss okay thank you

217
00:09:33,670 --> 00:09:31,920
um

218
00:09:35,030 --> 00:09:33,680
well i do miss crunchy things because we

219
00:09:36,470 --> 00:09:35,040
don't have a lot of crunchy things so

220
00:09:38,710 --> 00:09:36,480
when we had that lettuce

221
00:09:40,630 --> 00:09:38,720
a few times up here that was really nice

222
00:09:42,790 --> 00:09:40,640
and i miss things like pizza which you

223
00:09:44,070 --> 00:09:42,800
guys probably like as well we don't have

224
00:09:47,030 --> 00:09:44,080
any of that up here but in general our

225
00:09:48,550 --> 00:09:47,040
food is very good pretty good variety

226
00:09:50,310 --> 00:09:48,560
we get to share with the russians a lot

227
00:09:51,910 --> 00:09:50,320
too so we'll have a lot of their cuisine

228
00:09:53,509 --> 00:09:51,920
and they'll have some of ours we're

229
00:09:55,350 --> 00:09:53,519
lucky to have the french astronaut on

230
00:09:57,670 --> 00:09:55,360
board so we get some european food as

231
00:09:57,680 --> 00:10:01,829
thank you

232
00:10:09,670 --> 00:10:04,230
hello my name is jack merritt how do you

233
00:10:13,350 --> 00:10:11,350
all right i'll try to show you here good

234
00:10:15,430 --> 00:10:13,360
question so what i got here this isn't

235
00:10:17,190 --> 00:10:15,440
water but it's any drink bag we have is

236
00:10:19,430 --> 00:10:17,200
like this this is an orange drink so

237
00:10:21,430 --> 00:10:19,440
it's labeled it just has powder in it

238
00:10:23,750 --> 00:10:21,440
until we hydrate it and put water in it

239
00:10:25,829 --> 00:10:23,760
but it then turns into kind of a giant

240
00:10:27,590 --> 00:10:25,839
capri sun pouch like you guys are

241
00:10:28,790 --> 00:10:27,600
probably used to we do have a special

242
00:10:31,829 --> 00:10:28,800
straw

243
00:10:33,829 --> 00:10:31,839
it the liquid would just come out all

244
00:10:35,509 --> 00:10:33,839
over the place so i'll try to show you

245
00:10:37,350 --> 00:10:35,519
what happens when you release the straw

246
00:10:38,630 --> 00:10:37,360
here

247
00:10:41,269 --> 00:10:38,640
so you can just see

248
00:10:42,550 --> 00:10:41,279
a ball of orange liquid here

249
00:10:47,750 --> 00:10:42,560
and it'll just keep coming out and

250
00:10:51,110 --> 00:10:49,110
but in general we just drew when we're

251
00:10:52,949 --> 00:10:51,120
doing our drinks you drink what you want

252
00:11:03,110 --> 00:10:52,959
and then you close the straw back up so

253
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:07,430
thank you

254
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:13,110
hi i got a little messier than i thought

255
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:18,949
what do you like to do in your free time

256
00:11:22,550 --> 00:11:20,870
so we do get weekends off typically so

257
00:11:24,790 --> 00:11:22,560
we do have some free time

258
00:11:26,470 --> 00:11:24,800
i love calling my family and friends

259
00:11:28,790 --> 00:11:26,480
back on earth and chatting with them and

260
00:11:30,150 --> 00:11:28,800
catching up so that's always nice we

261
00:11:32,230 --> 00:11:30,160
also have

262
00:11:33,750 --> 00:11:32,240
plenty of movies plenty of tv shows that

263
00:11:36,069 --> 00:11:33,760
they can send up to us or that are

264
00:11:37,590 --> 00:11:36,079
already on board the space station so a

265
00:11:38,630 --> 00:11:37,600
lot of times we'll have movie night up

266
00:11:40,550 --> 00:11:38,640
here and we'll get the whole crew

267
00:11:43,509 --> 00:11:40,560
together and watch a nice movie together

268
00:11:45,269 --> 00:11:43,519
i'm also a big sports fan so i get a

269
00:11:48,389 --> 00:11:45,279
pretty good game sent up to me whether

270
00:11:50,389 --> 00:11:48,399
it's college football or nfl or nba or

271
00:11:52,310 --> 00:11:50,399
college basketball so i enjoy watching

272
00:11:54,550 --> 00:11:52,320
those it kind of keeps me in touch with

273
00:11:58,629 --> 00:11:54,560
things on earth

274
00:12:07,110 --> 00:12:01,269
hi my name is gabby tony how do you cook

275
00:12:11,509 --> 00:12:09,670
so we have a couple ways to do that we

276
00:12:13,990 --> 00:12:11,519
have some rehydratable foods that come

277
00:12:15,190 --> 00:12:14,000
in packages like this this is uh

278
00:12:16,389 --> 00:12:15,200
probably your favorite right it's

279
00:12:17,750 --> 00:12:16,399
broccoli

280
00:12:19,670 --> 00:12:17,760
but what we do with these these are

281
00:12:21,590 --> 00:12:19,680
rehydratable so we hook these up to a

282
00:12:23,190 --> 00:12:21,600
machine that puts water in them and you

283
00:12:24,550 --> 00:12:23,200
can put hot water in them and if you do

284
00:12:26,150 --> 00:12:24,560
that they're pretty much ready to eat in

285
00:12:27,430 --> 00:12:26,160
about five minutes

286
00:12:28,550 --> 00:12:27,440
but if you want to heat them up even

287
00:12:30,870 --> 00:12:28,560
more

288
00:12:32,710 --> 00:12:30,880
or if you want to have a pouch of foods

289
00:12:33,509 --> 00:12:32,720
a lot of our foods comes in pouches like

290
00:12:35,110 --> 00:12:33,519
this

291
00:12:37,350 --> 00:12:35,120
we have a convection oven that looks

292
00:12:38,949 --> 00:12:37,360
like a little miniature suitcase that we

293
00:12:40,550 --> 00:12:38,959
put them in and you can heat them up for

294
00:12:42,150 --> 00:12:40,560
as long as you want usually takes about

295
00:12:45,990 --> 00:12:42,160
20 to 30 minutes

296
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,269
thank you

297
00:12:53,829 --> 00:12:50,949
hello my name is mary elizabeth

298
00:12:55,430 --> 00:12:53,839
kirkpatrick i have two questions for you

299
00:12:57,509 --> 00:12:55,440
do you have a closet for your clothes

300
00:13:01,750 --> 00:12:57,519
and spacesuit what happens to your dirty

301
00:13:04,790 --> 00:13:03,190
very good question these are a lot of

302
00:13:06,790 --> 00:13:04,800
logistics questions that you guys are

303
00:13:08,870 --> 00:13:06,800
asking it's very important for you know

304
00:13:10,550 --> 00:13:08,880
brushing teeth and eating and and

305
00:13:12,470 --> 00:13:10,560
clothes management because otherwise

306
00:13:15,269 --> 00:13:12,480
everything's a big mess so we have

307
00:13:17,750 --> 00:13:15,279
little bags like this right here

308
00:13:20,389 --> 00:13:17,760
that we typically keep about two weeks

309
00:13:22,069 --> 00:13:20,399
worth of clothes in maybe a little more

310
00:13:23,509 --> 00:13:22,079
so we'll put maybe two weeks of our

311
00:13:25,509 --> 00:13:23,519
clothes in here and then set it right

312
00:13:27,750 --> 00:13:25,519
next to our little bedroom

313
00:13:29,269 --> 00:13:27,760
and that way it's easily accessible to

314
00:13:31,190 --> 00:13:29,279
get our stuff that we need for a couple

315
00:13:32,949 --> 00:13:31,200
weeks and then after that's up then

316
00:13:35,269 --> 00:13:32,959
we'll kind of reload a bag like that

317
00:13:37,910 --> 00:13:35,279
from another bigger suitcase

318
00:13:39,430 --> 00:13:37,920
where we keep the rest of our stuff

319
00:13:42,230 --> 00:13:39,440
and i already forgot your second

320
00:13:47,590 --> 00:13:42,240
question i'm sorry

321
00:13:51,910 --> 00:13:50,310
oh yeah so we wear our clothes for

322
00:13:53,509 --> 00:13:51,920
really about as long as you can stand

323
00:13:55,590 --> 00:13:53,519
them and then you throw them away so we

324
00:13:58,470 --> 00:13:55,600
don't have any way to clean them up here

325
00:13:59,829 --> 00:13:58,480
um we get uh not very many clothes as

326
00:14:01,509 --> 00:13:59,839
you might think because there's just not

327
00:14:04,310 --> 00:14:01,519
a lot of room not and it's very

328
00:14:07,350 --> 00:14:04,320
expensive to fly things up here so

329
00:14:08,790 --> 00:14:07,360
we get a couple pairs of pants uh

330
00:14:10,949 --> 00:14:08,800
probably for the whole mission and then

331
00:14:12,870 --> 00:14:10,959
we get a shirt about once a week and

332
00:14:13,829 --> 00:14:12,880
then we get workout clothes once a week

333
00:14:15,910 --> 00:14:13,839
so

334
00:14:17,350 --> 00:14:15,920
we have to manage our dirty clothes but

335
00:14:24,069 --> 00:14:17,360
once they're dirty and we're done with

336
00:14:29,269 --> 00:14:26,310
hello my name is hank chopra and my

337
00:14:31,430 --> 00:14:29,279
question is how much force is exerted to

338
00:14:36,790 --> 00:14:31,440
the engines in order to control the

339
00:14:40,470 --> 00:14:38,550
well believe it or not even as massive

340
00:14:42,710 --> 00:14:40,480
as this space station is it doesn't take

341
00:14:45,110 --> 00:14:42,720
much force at all and we have little

342
00:14:47,430 --> 00:14:45,120
little engines called thrusters that we

343
00:14:48,629 --> 00:14:47,440
use to sometimes reorient the space

344
00:14:49,829 --> 00:14:48,639
station and put it in a different

345
00:14:51,350 --> 00:14:49,839
attitude

346
00:14:53,829 --> 00:14:51,360
in general it just stays in the orbit

347
00:14:55,670 --> 00:14:53,839
that we're in doesn't need any jets or

348
00:14:57,030 --> 00:14:55,680
anything firing any engines firing

349
00:14:58,389 --> 00:14:57,040
continuously

350
00:15:00,230 --> 00:14:58,399
but every now and then for different

351
00:15:01,829 --> 00:15:00,240
events we'll orient the station in a

352
00:15:03,829 --> 00:15:01,839
different direction and we'll need to

353
00:15:06,230 --> 00:15:03,839
use those thrusters in that case but

354
00:15:10,629 --> 00:15:06,240
very little force

355
00:15:14,790 --> 00:15:13,030
my name is carson dodd how do you talk

356
00:15:20,470 --> 00:15:14,800
to each other inside the space station

357
00:15:24,550 --> 00:15:22,550
so when we're inside we just kind of

358
00:15:26,470 --> 00:15:24,560
wherever each other are we just visually

359
00:15:28,790 --> 00:15:26,480
go find them and talk to them just like

360
00:15:30,230 --> 00:15:28,800
i'd be talking to you in your classroom

361
00:15:32,389 --> 00:15:30,240
when we go outside that's a bit

362
00:15:34,949 --> 00:15:32,399
different the two space walkers when you

363
00:15:36,710 --> 00:15:34,959
go outside are talking uh what's called

364
00:15:38,389 --> 00:15:36,720
on the big loop so when every time they

365
00:15:40,710 --> 00:15:38,399
talk it's going between the space

366
00:15:42,949 --> 00:15:40,720
walkers it's also coming on board the

367
00:15:45,350 --> 00:15:42,959
space station and also going to the

368
00:15:47,670 --> 00:15:45,360
mission control centers around the world

369
00:15:49,910 --> 00:15:47,680
mainly to houston which is where the

370
00:15:52,150 --> 00:15:49,920
spacewalks are being driven out of

371
00:15:53,509 --> 00:15:52,160
in the case of our spacewalk so you may

372
00:15:56,150 --> 00:15:53,519
have heard we had a spacewalk last

373
00:15:58,310 --> 00:15:56,160
friday it went very well and uh tomo

374
00:16:01,110 --> 00:15:58,320
pesque and myself are going back outside

375
00:16:02,790 --> 00:16:01,120
this friday for our second spacewalk so

376
00:16:05,749 --> 00:16:02,800
hopefully you guys can tune in and watch

377
00:16:08,870 --> 00:16:05,759
a little of it on friday

378
00:16:11,030 --> 00:16:08,880
thank you

379
00:16:12,870 --> 00:16:11,040
my name is jack schaefer how long can

380
00:16:18,870 --> 00:16:12,880
you be outside of the space station can

381
00:16:22,310 --> 00:16:20,470
well that would be nice i think we would

382
00:16:24,389 --> 00:16:22,320
go out a lot more often but no it's a

383
00:16:26,870 --> 00:16:24,399
very uh it's very dangerous out there

384
00:16:29,030 --> 00:16:26,880
and so it's very planned and calculated

385
00:16:31,030 --> 00:16:29,040
typically when we go outside

386
00:16:33,350 --> 00:16:31,040
and these days we're going out a couple

387
00:16:34,310 --> 00:16:33,360
times a year maybe would be the average

388
00:16:36,230 --> 00:16:34,320
i think

389
00:16:37,829 --> 00:16:36,240
we're just lucky enough that we're here

390
00:16:39,829 --> 00:16:37,839
during a time where we have some planned

391
00:16:42,069 --> 00:16:39,839
space walks and that's why we're going

392
00:16:43,829 --> 00:16:42,079
out and in general we go out about six

393
00:16:45,509 --> 00:16:43,839
and a half to seven hours for each

394
00:16:47,110 --> 00:16:45,519
spacewalk so it's pretty much like your

395
00:16:48,389 --> 00:16:47,120
entire school day

396
00:16:50,470 --> 00:16:48,399
if you're thinking like that but we

397
00:16:52,230 --> 00:16:50,480
don't have lunch or break or recess or

398
00:16:53,749 --> 00:16:52,240
anything like that so

399
00:16:54,790 --> 00:16:53,759
we're very exhausted when we get back

400
00:16:56,790 --> 00:16:54,800
inside

401
00:16:59,350 --> 00:16:56,800
and ready to eat for sure and we sleep

402
00:17:03,350 --> 00:16:59,360
very well that night

403
00:17:07,110 --> 00:17:05,510
hi my name is brooks bradberry and how

404
00:17:11,909 --> 00:17:07,120
do you clip your nails on the space

405
00:17:16,549 --> 00:17:14,470
all right um very carefully is probably

406
00:17:18,630 --> 00:17:16,559
the best answer but you clip them just

407
00:17:20,710 --> 00:17:18,640
like you do on earth the problem is that

408
00:17:23,029 --> 00:17:20,720
as soon as you clip it it goes flying

409
00:17:24,789 --> 00:17:23,039
off so you have to manage that

410
00:17:26,789 --> 00:17:24,799
typically with when you're doing things

411
00:17:28,870 --> 00:17:26,799
with small things like fingernails

412
00:17:30,549 --> 00:17:28,880
you'll get a piece of tape and kind of

413
00:17:32,470 --> 00:17:30,559
invert it and stick it near you so that

414
00:17:33,830 --> 00:17:32,480
you can grab little things like that and

415
00:17:35,830 --> 00:17:33,840
stick it to the tape while you're

416
00:17:37,350 --> 00:17:35,840
continuing continuing to do what you're

417
00:17:38,789 --> 00:17:37,360
doing and then when you're done of

418
00:17:40,470 --> 00:17:38,799
course you wire that up and throw it

419
00:17:44,789 --> 00:17:40,480
away

420
00:17:48,710 --> 00:17:46,630
my name is landon collish and our

421
00:17:54,789 --> 00:17:48,720
stomach aches more severe in space due

422
00:17:58,870 --> 00:17:57,029
that's a good question and nobody in my

423
00:18:02,230 --> 00:17:58,880
crew so far has had one so i can't

424
00:18:03,830 --> 00:18:02,240
truthfully answer that i don't think so

425
00:18:05,510 --> 00:18:03,840
your stomach is kind of in a different

426
00:18:07,029 --> 00:18:05,520
position obviously than it is on earth

427
00:18:09,110 --> 00:18:07,039
it's just kind of floating in the middle

428
00:18:11,430 --> 00:18:09,120
of your body it's not sitting down lower

429
00:18:13,350 --> 00:18:11,440
like when gravity's pulling on it

430
00:18:15,029 --> 00:18:13,360
but i'm not sure it would be more severe

431
00:18:18,630 --> 00:18:15,039
or not i don't think so i think it would

432
00:18:22,070 --> 00:18:18,640
feel very similar to being on earth

433
00:18:25,830 --> 00:18:24,150
hello my name is raquel watkins and i

434
00:18:31,029 --> 00:18:25,840
was just wondering what do you miss the

435
00:18:34,789 --> 00:18:32,789
well that's an easy one i miss my family

436
00:18:36,549 --> 00:18:34,799
the most for sure

437
00:18:38,630 --> 00:18:36,559
and just being there and missing some of

438
00:18:41,430 --> 00:18:38,640
my kids events and being part of the the

439
00:18:43,270 --> 00:18:41,440
live their lives so that's a big deal to

440
00:18:45,029 --> 00:18:43,280
be away for five months and you can

441
00:18:47,110 --> 00:18:45,039
imagine if your parents are gone for

442
00:18:49,590 --> 00:18:47,120
that long what they would miss so to me

443
00:18:52,950 --> 00:18:49,600
that's what i miss the most

444
00:19:01,270 --> 00:18:55,510

some lettuce over the first few months

456
00:19:37,990 --> 00:19:34,960

457
00:19:40,950 --> 00:19:38,000
