we've got 20 people here with 20

37
00:01:41,429 --> 00:01:40,400
questions and we're going to try to get

38
00:01:42,469 --> 00:01:41,439

that sounds great i'm looking forward to

42
00:01:55,270 --> 00:01:53,280
hearing the questions

43
00:02:02,550 --> 00:01:55,280
all right

44
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:12,070
hello my name is

45
00:02:18,630 --> 00:02:13,430
what is your favorite thing to do in

46
00:02:21,589 --> 00:02:19,990
well i think the number one thing is

47
00:02:23,270 --> 00:02:21,599
flying around that's something obviously

48
00:02:24,949 --> 00:02:23,280
you can't do on earth but up here that's

49
00:02:27,190 --> 00:02:24,959
how we get around you have to fly

50
00:02:28,630 --> 00:02:27,200
there's you can't walk around up here so

51
00:02:30,630 --> 00:02:28,640
that's something really cool that we get

52
00:02:34,070 --> 00:02:30,640
to experience in the environment of

53
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,670
thank you

54
00:02:41,910 --> 00:02:40,229
okay shane next up we have uh ashley

55
00:02:44,309 --> 00:02:41,920
ashley's got a question good morning

56
00:02:46,869 --> 00:02:44,319
ashley here's the camera

57
00:02:48,550 --> 00:02:46,879
hi my name is ash do you think that

58
00:02:50,390 --> 00:02:48,560
space flight is something that will be

59
00:02:54,869 --> 00:02:50,400
accessible to the masses within our

60
00:02:58,149 --> 00:02:56,470
well i certainly hope so it's such an

61
00:02:59,509 --> 00:02:58,159
incredible experience and it's something

62
00:03:01,110 --> 00:02:59,519
that i that i wish i could bring my

63
00:03:03,030 --> 00:03:01,120
family up here of course for them to

64
00:03:05,430 --> 00:03:03,040
experience and friends as well

65
00:03:07,350 --> 00:03:05,440
so i do hope in your generation uh you

66
00:03:09,910 --> 00:03:07,360
know when you get old like we are

67
00:03:11,910 --> 00:03:09,920
um that you'll be actually you know this

68
00:03:12,869 --> 00:03:11,920
will be a commonplace thing i'm not sure

69
00:03:14,470 --> 00:03:12,879
we're going to quite be there we're

70
00:03:15,750 --> 00:03:14,480
going to be heading to mars as you you

71
00:03:16,790 --> 00:03:15,760
probably know here in the next few

72
00:03:18,470 --> 00:03:16,800
decades

73
00:03:20,470 --> 00:03:18,480
that's going to be a really big push for

74
00:03:23,509 --> 00:03:20,480
our nation and a bunch of nations as we

75
00:03:25,430 --> 00:03:23,519
do this is an international partnership

76
00:03:26,949 --> 00:03:25,440
but your generation also will be the

77
00:03:28,470 --> 00:03:26,959
ones that are going to be going to mars

78
00:03:31,990 --> 00:03:28,480
for the first time as human beings so

79
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,030
thank you

80
00:03:39,670 --> 00:03:36,869
next question shane is going to be from

81
00:03:43,670 --> 00:03:41,990
hi my name is colton i understand you

82
00:03:45,589 --> 00:03:43,680
played baseball at west point my

83
00:03:47,350 --> 00:03:45,599
question is how does the microgravity

84
00:03:51,830 --> 00:03:47,360
environment affect your ability to throw

85
00:03:55,589 --> 00:03:53,910
well that's that's a great question up

86
00:03:57,110 --> 00:03:55,599
here if you throw anything i actually

87
00:03:58,550 --> 00:03:57,120
don't have a baseball but i do have a

88
00:04:01,350 --> 00:03:58,560
basketball so i'm sure there's some

89
00:04:03,190 --> 00:04:01,360
thunder fans in the house there

90
00:04:05,589 --> 00:04:03,200
so i'll try to show the spin that i

91
00:04:07,589 --> 00:04:05,599
would you know use on a curveball so

92
00:04:08,550 --> 00:04:07,599
you're looking for that 12 to 6 spin

93
00:04:10,550 --> 00:04:08,560
right

94
00:04:12,149 --> 00:04:10,560
hopefully if you throw a really nice one

95
00:04:14,229 --> 00:04:12,159
all right and as it gets to the batter

96
00:04:16,229 --> 00:04:14,239
it's going to drop well up here in space

97
00:04:18,229 --> 00:04:16,239
it won't drop unless you push it down

98
00:04:19,909 --> 00:04:18,239
physically like that otherwise it's just

99
00:04:21,030 --> 00:04:19,919
going to go in the same direction that i

100
00:04:22,710 --> 00:04:21,040
pushed it

101
00:04:24,390 --> 00:04:22,720
so it's kind of it's obviously a unique

102
00:04:26,310 --> 00:04:24,400
environment and the ball is just going

103
00:04:27,350 --> 00:04:26,320
to travel that way forever until it hits

104
00:04:29,990 --> 00:04:27,360
something

105
00:04:31,990 --> 00:04:30,000
and we don't have that that uh luxury i

106
00:04:33,590 --> 00:04:32,000
guess on earth but a curveball breaks a

107
00:04:35,590 --> 00:04:33,600
lot better and the slider breaks a lot

108
00:04:37,110 --> 00:04:35,600
better on the earth because of gravity

109
00:04:39,990 --> 00:04:37,120
that's what you know helps pull it down

110
00:04:41,670 --> 00:04:40,000
as it gets towards the better

111
00:04:43,350 --> 00:04:41,680
thank you shane

112
00:04:44,710 --> 00:04:43,360
hey shane that was that was a great

113
00:04:46,790 --> 00:04:44,720
answer but i was wondering how you're

114
00:04:51,909 --> 00:04:46,800
going to handle that one next up we got

115
00:04:56,390 --> 00:04:54,390
hi my name is gage my question is has

116
00:04:57,830 --> 00:04:56,400
moving in space been easier harder or

117
00:04:59,189 --> 00:04:57,840
different and have you felt noticeable

118
00:05:03,270 --> 00:04:59,199
changes in your strength and how you

119
00:05:06,550 --> 00:05:04,710
i haven't felt any difference in our

120
00:05:08,310 --> 00:05:06,560
strength and that's really due to the

121
00:05:10,469 --> 00:05:08,320
exercise regimen that we're all on up

122
00:05:13,270 --> 00:05:10,479
here we exercise about two hours a day

123
00:05:15,350 --> 00:05:13,280
an hour of that being cardio on either a

124
00:05:16,469 --> 00:05:15,360
treadmill or a stationary bike they're a

125
00:05:18,550 --> 00:05:16,479
little bit different obviously than the

126
00:05:20,790 --> 00:05:18,560
ones on earth but that's what we use for

127
00:05:21,909 --> 00:05:20,800
our cardio and getting our heart rate up

128
00:05:23,270 --> 00:05:21,919
and then we have a weight lifting

129
00:05:24,790 --> 00:05:23,280
machine of course nothing weighs

130
00:05:27,270 --> 00:05:24,800
anything up here but it's a resistive

131
00:05:29,430 --> 00:05:27,280
machine that really is fantastic and we

132
00:05:30,629 --> 00:05:29,440
can do bench press shoulder press

133
00:05:32,469 --> 00:05:30,639
curls

134
00:05:33,749 --> 00:05:32,479
squats anything that you can really

135
00:05:35,830 --> 00:05:33,759
pretty much do on earth you can do up

136
00:05:37,510 --> 00:05:35,840
here on that machine so that keeps our

137
00:05:39,350 --> 00:05:37,520
muscle mass

138
00:05:41,749 --> 00:05:39,360
intact which is great it also keeps our

139
00:05:43,110 --> 00:05:41,759
bone density and bone mass intact which

140
00:05:45,909 --> 00:05:43,120
is something that decays up here in

141
00:05:47,990 --> 00:05:45,919
space if you're not doing the exercise

142
00:05:49,830 --> 00:05:48,000
all of us up here are feeling great

143
00:05:52,070 --> 00:05:49,840
the exercise i think is really helping

144
00:05:54,469 --> 00:05:52,080
us just our mood our attitudes and our

145
00:05:57,909 --> 00:05:54,479
bodies physically so i haven't noticed

146
00:06:00,550 --> 00:05:57,919
any mental changes or physical changes

147
00:06:04,950 --> 00:06:02,870
hey shane before we get the next student

148
00:06:06,950 --> 00:06:04,960
up here i got a quick give me a ten word

149
00:06:08,390 --> 00:06:06,960
answer you've just been out the door for

150
00:06:09,590 --> 00:06:08,400
a couple of space walks did you feel

151
00:06:13,670 --> 00:06:09,600
like you're in pretty good shape when

152
00:06:17,350 --> 00:06:15,510
i did it's uh very physically and

153
00:06:18,950 --> 00:06:17,360
mentally challenging of course outside

154
00:06:21,270 --> 00:06:18,960
and when you get back in you're you're

155
00:06:23,110 --> 00:06:21,280
just exhausted but i felt like i was

156
00:06:24,710 --> 00:06:23,120
ready peggy and i went out the first

157
00:06:26,390 --> 00:06:24,720
time and then tomo and i went out the

158
00:06:28,070 --> 00:06:26,400
second time i was just lucky enough to

159
00:06:30,150 --> 00:06:28,080
go out both times and we may have a few

160
00:06:33,430 --> 00:06:30,160
more coming up here in march so we're

161
00:06:38,870 --> 00:06:35,830
awesome next question from macy

162
00:06:40,870 --> 00:06:38,880
hi my name is macy and my question is

163
00:06:45,270 --> 00:06:40,880
what did you do to prepare in the months

164
00:06:48,790 --> 00:06:46,870
well the last few months before a

165
00:06:50,629 --> 00:06:48,800
mission like this are actually spent in

166
00:06:52,629 --> 00:06:50,639
russia which is where we do a lot of our

167
00:06:54,070 --> 00:06:52,639
training i would say maybe 40 to 50

168
00:06:55,830 --> 00:06:54,080
percent of our training is done in

169
00:06:57,430 --> 00:06:55,840
russia because we fly on a russian

170
00:06:59,589 --> 00:06:57,440
spacecraft to get here to the space

171
00:07:01,270 --> 00:06:59,599
station and we also return on a russian

172
00:07:03,670 --> 00:07:01,280
spacecraft so

173
00:07:05,430 --> 00:07:03,680
about two months prior to launching we

174
00:07:07,510 --> 00:07:05,440
go to star city russia which is where

175
00:07:09,749 --> 00:07:07,520
the russians have their training center

176
00:07:10,469 --> 00:07:09,759
for their cosmonauts and we join them

177
00:07:12,230 --> 00:07:10,479
there

178
00:07:14,469 --> 00:07:12,240
as we train as a crew in the last couple

179
00:07:15,909 --> 00:07:14,479
months we have final exams in the

180
00:07:17,670 --> 00:07:15,919
simulators to make sure that we're

181
00:07:19,589 --> 00:07:17,680
qualified and ready to go

182
00:07:21,430 --> 00:07:19,599
and then a couple weeks before launch we

183
00:07:24,070 --> 00:07:21,440
actually head down to kazakhstan which

184
00:07:25,589 --> 00:07:24,080
is uh south of russia and that's where

185
00:07:27,990 --> 00:07:25,599
the russians launched their their

186
00:07:29,350 --> 00:07:28,000
rockets from with with the crews on it

187
00:07:31,110 --> 00:07:29,360
so we go down there for a couple weeks

188
00:07:32,309 --> 00:07:31,120
and we're in quarantine

189
00:07:34,230 --> 00:07:32,319
that's just to get us away from the

190
00:07:36,309 --> 00:07:34,240
general public so that we don't get sick

191
00:07:39,029 --> 00:07:36,319
or take any illnesses with us

192
00:07:41,990 --> 00:07:39,039
up here to the space station

193
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:46,950
next up jared with a question

194
00:07:50,869 --> 00:07:49,430
hi my name is jared uh do you still feel

195
00:07:52,869 --> 00:07:50,879
the same way about the earth after

196
00:07:54,390 --> 00:07:52,879
you've seen it from so far away how has

197
00:07:59,189 --> 00:07:54,400
being an astronaut changed your

198
00:08:02,790 --> 00:08:00,950
that's a really good question uh we do

199
00:08:04,390 --> 00:08:02,800
have a unique perspective up here of

200
00:08:05,909 --> 00:08:04,400
course and

201
00:08:07,589 --> 00:08:05,919
one that when you look down at our

202
00:08:09,270 --> 00:08:07,599
planet you don't see

203
00:08:11,189 --> 00:08:09,280
stress you don't see conflict you don't

204
00:08:13,909 --> 00:08:11,199
see wars going on you don't see borders

205
00:08:16,150 --> 00:08:13,919
even so it's a pretty unique perspective

206
00:08:17,749 --> 00:08:16,160
and obviously if we could somehow get

207
00:08:20,070 --> 00:08:17,759
that peaceful

208
00:08:21,749 --> 00:08:20,080
serene feeling that we see from up here

209
00:08:25,510 --> 00:08:21,759
to actually take place on earth i think

210
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:29,909
thank you

211
00:08:35,589 --> 00:08:33,430
next up jonathan has a question

212
00:08:37,110 --> 00:08:35,599
hi my name is jonathan what did you do

213
00:08:38,550 --> 00:08:37,120
in your everyday

214
00:08:43,829 --> 00:08:38,560
life to get where you are now and how

215
00:08:47,829 --> 00:08:46,630
well ever since i was your age i'm sure

216
00:08:50,070 --> 00:08:47,839
you know in high school and middle

217
00:08:51,829 --> 00:08:50,080
school i started working really hard i

218
00:08:53,590 --> 00:08:51,839
studied very hard i wasn't ever the

219
00:08:54,949 --> 00:08:53,600
smartest kid or the best athlete or

220
00:08:57,030 --> 00:08:54,959
anything like that but i just worked

221
00:08:58,790 --> 00:08:57,040
really hard at whatever i was doing

222
00:09:00,230 --> 00:08:58,800
that that seemed to pay off for me as i

223
00:09:02,230 --> 00:09:00,240
went through college

224
00:09:03,750 --> 00:09:02,240
uh played sports in college and then as

225
00:09:05,509 --> 00:09:03,760
i went into the military i went to the

226
00:09:06,550 --> 00:09:05,519
united states army after graduating at

227
00:09:08,230 --> 00:09:06,560
west point

228
00:09:10,070 --> 00:09:08,240
and i just kept working really hard at

229
00:09:11,670 --> 00:09:10,080
whatever job i was given uh didn't

230
00:09:14,550 --> 00:09:11,680
matter what it was i was lucky enough to

231
00:09:16,070 --> 00:09:14,560
fly apache helicopters in the army um

232
00:09:17,590 --> 00:09:16,080
worked with some incredible people

233
00:09:20,150 --> 00:09:17,600
learned a lot about leadership and a lot

234
00:09:22,389 --> 00:09:20,160
about people through that experience

235
00:09:24,310 --> 00:09:22,399
and it kind of led me eventually

236
00:09:26,230 --> 00:09:24,320
um to coming to nasa and working as an

237
00:09:28,470 --> 00:09:26,240
astronaut so i've been very blessed i've

238
00:09:30,550 --> 00:09:28,480
always worked very hard and tried to

239
00:09:32,070 --> 00:09:30,560
instill that and certainly my children

240
00:09:34,630 --> 00:09:32,080
as well as any other folks that i come

241
00:09:36,389 --> 00:09:34,640
in contact with

242
00:09:40,070 --> 00:09:36,399
thank you

243
00:09:43,750 --> 00:09:42,710
hi i'm connor and i have two questions

244
00:09:45,190 --> 00:09:43,760
um

245
00:09:46,550 --> 00:09:45,200
what is the most difficult challenge

246
00:09:50,949 --> 00:09:46,560
that you faced in your life and how did

247
00:09:55,030 --> 00:09:52,550
well that's a good one and a very tough

248
00:09:56,790 --> 00:09:55,040
question uh challenges you know as you

249
00:09:59,190 --> 00:09:56,800
go through life you'll see you have

250
00:10:01,110 --> 00:09:59,200
challenges i won't say all the time but

251
00:10:02,069 --> 00:10:01,120
you know every few months or every year

252
00:10:04,069 --> 00:10:02,079
you're going to have some major

253
00:10:05,670 --> 00:10:04,079
challenges so i think the one that's

254
00:10:07,350 --> 00:10:05,680
kind of the most important or whatever

255
00:10:09,350 --> 00:10:07,360
is the one you're kind of going through

256
00:10:10,949 --> 00:10:09,360
currently so i've been through a lot to

257
00:10:13,829 --> 00:10:10,959
get to kind of this point where i am

258
00:10:15,590 --> 00:10:13,839
with family and with friends um and with

259
00:10:17,590 --> 00:10:15,600
just other situations in my life the

260
00:10:19,110 --> 00:10:17,600
current one which is kind of on my mind

261
00:10:20,949 --> 00:10:19,120
the most right now is the challenge of

262
00:10:23,110 --> 00:10:20,959
being separated from my family for six

263
00:10:24,470 --> 00:10:23,120
months um it's not easy a lot of you

264
00:10:26,790 --> 00:10:24,480
know everybody does it that comes up

265
00:10:29,110 --> 00:10:26,800
here just something that uh is is more

266
00:10:30,389 --> 00:10:29,120
difficult to some than others and my

267
00:10:32,069 --> 00:10:30,399
family and i are working through it but

268
00:10:34,069 --> 00:10:32,079
it's you know i hate missing my kids

269
00:10:35,509 --> 00:10:34,079
games and and all their activities and

270
00:10:37,190 --> 00:10:35,519
things that they're doing as they're

271
00:10:38,870 --> 00:10:37,200
going through their life but it's just

272
00:10:40,230 --> 00:10:38,880
something that we have to deal with and

273
00:10:41,829 --> 00:10:40,240
i think it's a big challenge for the

274
00:10:44,949 --> 00:10:41,839
space station and expedition crews in

275
00:10:48,150 --> 00:10:46,870
thank you and my second question is what

276
00:10:52,310 --> 00:10:48,160
kind of experiments are you doing in

277
00:10:56,389 --> 00:10:53,910
we have a lot going on i think we're

278
00:10:58,069 --> 00:10:56,399
doing about 200 total over the six

279
00:11:00,230 --> 00:10:58,079
months that i'm up here

280
00:11:02,710 --> 00:11:00,240
as a crew so we've got a lot going on we

281
00:11:04,389 --> 00:11:02,720
have fluid shifts experiments going on

282
00:11:06,310 --> 00:11:04,399
on on some of the astronauts and

283
00:11:07,910 --> 00:11:06,320
cosmonauts which is a pretty neat thing

284
00:11:09,590 --> 00:11:07,920
when you come up to space the fluid in

285
00:11:10,630 --> 00:11:09,600
your body actually shifts up towards

286
00:11:12,150 --> 00:11:10,640
your head

287
00:11:13,910 --> 00:11:12,160
and it kind of puffs your face out at

288
00:11:16,069 --> 00:11:13,920
least initially when you get up here so

289
00:11:17,990 --> 00:11:16,079
we're trying to study why that happens

290
00:11:20,069 --> 00:11:18,000
we also are doing some capillary flow

291
00:11:21,590 --> 00:11:20,079
experiments uh we're doing some

292
00:11:23,110 --> 00:11:21,600
combustion experiments which we're going

293
00:11:25,110 --> 00:11:23,120
to start next week

294
00:11:26,949 --> 00:11:25,120
in this rack to my right here that's

295
00:11:28,710 --> 00:11:26,959
going to be exciting and i even got to

296
00:11:30,150 --> 00:11:28,720
grow some lettuce up here in space so i

297
00:11:32,710 --> 00:11:30,160
kind of felt like matt damon on the

298
00:11:34,630 --> 00:11:32,720
martian growing things uh away from

299
00:11:36,069 --> 00:11:34,640
earth but we the lettuce came out

300
00:11:39,110 --> 00:11:36,079
beautifully and we got to actually eat

301
00:11:45,509 --> 00:11:39,120
it up here a few weeks ago

302
00:11:49,509 --> 00:11:48,069
hi my name is tyler if the mars trip is

303
00:11:55,269 --> 00:11:49,519
successful what do you believe is in

304
00:12:00,230 --> 00:11:57,509
well that's a few decades away

305
00:12:01,750 --> 00:12:00,240
sending people to mars i think

306
00:12:03,750 --> 00:12:01,760
but it's going to be fantastic i mean

307
00:12:06,790 --> 00:12:03,760
it's going to be it's a very tough

308
00:12:08,550 --> 00:12:06,800
problem to solve to get a human there

309
00:12:09,990 --> 00:12:08,560
because of the systems that are involved

310
00:12:12,069 --> 00:12:10,000
and we're testing a lot of those systems

311
00:12:14,629 --> 00:12:12,079
out now here on the space station

312
00:12:15,750 --> 00:12:14,639
where it's not so far away from earth so

313
00:12:17,829 --> 00:12:15,760
you know when we make that next

314
00:12:18,870 --> 00:12:17,839
spacecraft to go to mars all these

315
00:12:21,030 --> 00:12:18,880
systems are going to have in the

316
00:12:22,230 --> 00:12:21,040
technology we develop over the lifetime

317
00:12:23,990 --> 00:12:22,240
of the space station here are going to

318
00:12:25,910 --> 00:12:24,000
come into play as we help develop that

319
00:12:27,829 --> 00:12:25,920
vehicle so that the humans can stay

320
00:12:29,990 --> 00:12:27,839
alive and stay healthy

321
00:12:33,990 --> 00:12:30,000
can get to mars do their mission and

322
00:12:39,269 --> 00:12:34,000
return safely back to earth

323
00:12:43,350 --> 00:12:41,670
hi my name is noah and obviously you

324
00:12:44,470 --> 00:12:43,360
guys undergo years of training and i was

325
00:12:45,750 --> 00:12:44,480
wondering was there anything in

326
00:12:51,110 --> 00:12:45,760
particular that that training really

327
00:12:55,269 --> 00:12:52,949
we do get trained quite a bit it was

328
00:12:57,030 --> 00:12:55,279
about a two and a half a year training

329
00:12:58,710 --> 00:12:57,040
program just for this launch and this

330
00:13:00,470 --> 00:12:58,720
mission specifically but even before

331
00:13:02,949 --> 00:13:00,480
that i trained probably 10 years as an

332
00:13:05,509 --> 00:13:02,959
astronaut so a lot of training

333
00:13:07,670 --> 00:13:05,519
what you can't prepare for at all is the

334
00:13:09,829 --> 00:13:07,680
environment of microgravity and in

335
00:13:11,670 --> 00:13:09,839
trying to do a task or trying to change

336
00:13:13,269 --> 00:13:11,680
something out while you're floating and

337
00:13:15,829 --> 00:13:13,279
while everything around you is floating

338
00:13:17,750 --> 00:13:15,839
so we can train you know and be book

339
00:13:19,030 --> 00:13:17,760
smart so to speak on the ground but

340
00:13:21,750 --> 00:13:19,040
until you get up here and actually do

341
00:13:23,430 --> 00:13:21,760
some activities and figure things out in

342
00:13:27,430 --> 00:13:23,440
this microgravity environment you'll

343
00:13:29,750 --> 00:13:27,440
never really understand it completely

344
00:13:31,829 --> 00:13:29,760
thank you

345
00:13:33,509 --> 00:13:31,839
okay shane i'm the next capcom so i can

346
00:13:35,829 --> 00:13:33,519
say this we're doing good but we got

347
00:13:39,590 --> 00:13:35,839
seven minutes and nine questions left

348
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,590
all right digger we'll get through

349
00:13:50,069 --> 00:13:45,030
hi my name is jackson what is your

350
00:13:53,509 --> 00:13:51,990
my favorite thing up here is got to be

351
00:13:55,030 --> 00:13:53,519
looking out the window we have a module

352
00:13:56,949 --> 00:13:55,040
called the cupola which is full of

353
00:13:59,269 --> 00:13:56,959
windows and it points directly at earth

354
00:14:00,790 --> 00:13:59,279
all the time so i think most astronauts

355
00:14:03,590 --> 00:14:00,800
just enjoy hanging out on there and

356
00:14:09,110 --> 00:14:03,600
looking at our beautiful planet

357
00:14:13,990 --> 00:14:12,150
hi my name is lizzy with the increasing

358
00:14:16,389 --> 00:14:14,000
ability of robots such as nasa's

359
00:14:18,470 --> 00:14:16,399
robonaut why do you think manned space

360
00:14:23,430 --> 00:14:18,480
flight is still a crucial part of space

361
00:14:27,430 --> 00:14:25,910
great question i think really if we work

362
00:14:30,150 --> 00:14:27,440
together it's kind of the optimal

363
00:14:31,269 --> 00:14:30,160
situation we do have robots robonaut

364
00:14:33,110 --> 00:14:31,279
that you mentioned i'm actually going to

365
00:14:34,870 --> 00:14:33,120
work on that next week robonaut's not

366
00:14:36,389 --> 00:14:34,880
feeling too well right now he's a little

367
00:14:37,829 --> 00:14:36,399
bit sick so we're going to try to fix

368
00:14:38,949 --> 00:14:37,839
them next week and get them back working

369
00:14:41,509 --> 00:14:38,959
again

370
00:14:42,710 --> 00:14:41,519
but if we do have you know robots to do

371
00:14:44,790 --> 00:14:42,720
some tasks

372
00:14:45,750 --> 00:14:44,800
the human brings a lot to the table that

373
00:14:47,670 --> 00:14:45,760
a robot

374
00:14:49,430 --> 00:14:47,680
robot or robonaut can't bring and that's

375
00:14:50,870 --> 00:14:49,440
the critical thinking if you come to a

376
00:14:52,389 --> 00:14:50,880
situation

377
00:14:54,550 --> 00:14:52,399
and things aren't going exactly as

378
00:14:56,710 --> 00:14:54,560
planned or they're going really wrong i

379
00:14:58,550 --> 00:14:56,720
think you need a human there to solve

380
00:15:00,150 --> 00:14:58,560
the problem think about what's going on

381
00:15:01,990 --> 00:15:00,160
take all the factors

382
00:15:04,710 --> 00:15:02,000
involved in the situation and help solve

383
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:10,790
thank you

384
00:15:14,870 --> 00:15:12,949
hi my name is carla and i have two

385
00:15:20,069 --> 00:15:14,880
questions today what is your favorite

386
00:15:22,710 --> 00:15:21,829
my favorite type of space food is

387
00:15:24,710 --> 00:15:22,720
probably

388
00:15:26,389 --> 00:15:24,720
chicken strips and salsa things come in

389
00:15:28,550 --> 00:15:26,399
pouches most of our food comes in

390
00:15:29,910 --> 00:15:28,560
pouches like this and this happens to be

391
00:15:32,150 --> 00:15:29,920
chicken strips and salsa we have

392
00:15:34,230 --> 00:15:32,160
everything from beef to turkey to

393
00:15:36,150 --> 00:15:34,240
crawfish to we have a pretty wide

394
00:15:39,430 --> 00:15:36,160
variety of things that come in those

395
00:15:46,710 --> 00:15:41,910
and what duties do you perform on the

396
00:15:49,910 --> 00:15:47,990
can you repeat that i missed the first

397
00:15:52,629 --> 00:15:49,920
part of the question

398
00:15:57,509 --> 00:15:52,639
what duties do you perform under on the

399
00:16:01,670 --> 00:15:59,749
so we're all kind of trained on

400
00:16:03,350 --> 00:16:01,680
a lot of different things so we're all

401
00:16:05,269 --> 00:16:03,360
scientists some days we're engineers

402
00:16:07,509 --> 00:16:05,279
some days we're plumbers some days we're

403
00:16:08,790 --> 00:16:07,519
electricians other days some of us are

404
00:16:11,030 --> 00:16:08,800
uh have gotten the pleasure of going

405
00:16:13,350 --> 00:16:11,040
outside and doing spacewalks tomorrow

406
00:16:15,030 --> 00:16:13,360
like mr kerry mentioned we're going to

407
00:16:17,590 --> 00:16:15,040
be working with the robotic arm to

408
00:16:19,430 --> 00:16:17,600
release a japanese cargo vehicle so we

409
00:16:21,590 --> 00:16:19,440
kind of have to be trained and ready to

410
00:16:23,509 --> 00:16:21,600
do about everything up here great

411
00:16:34,069 --> 00:16:23,519
question

412
00:16:35,990 --> 00:16:34,079
you could go back in time to any space

413
00:16:40,710 --> 00:16:36,000
expedition from any country where would

414
00:16:45,269 --> 00:16:42,389
well really good question i think i

415
00:16:47,430 --> 00:16:45,279
would uh go back to the late 1960s early

416
00:16:49,189 --> 00:16:47,440
1970s and be on one of the apollo

417
00:16:51,910 --> 00:16:49,199
missions to go to the moon and walk on

418
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:58,389
thank you

419
00:17:02,389 --> 00:17:00,550
hello my name is jake and i was

420
00:17:04,789 --> 00:17:02,399
wondering how have the conditions of

421
00:17:09,270 --> 00:17:04,799
space affected you physically and

422
00:17:12,069 --> 00:17:10,470
well i think we talked a little bit

423
00:17:13,429 --> 00:17:12,079
before about it but physically i think

424
00:17:15,590 --> 00:17:13,439
we're all doing great because of the

425
00:17:16,949 --> 00:17:15,600
exercise that we do and mentally we all

426
00:17:18,230 --> 00:17:16,959
keep an eye on each other to make sure

427
00:17:19,909 --> 00:17:18,240
we can kind of tell when people are

428
00:17:21,669 --> 00:17:19,919
getting tired or when they need a break

429
00:17:23,669 --> 00:17:21,679
and that's just something that we're all

430
00:17:25,750 --> 00:17:23,679
kind of managing each other

431
00:17:27,750 --> 00:17:25,760
as a crew so we're working great as a

432
00:17:29,990 --> 00:17:27,760
team and so far

433
00:17:32,950 --> 00:17:30,000
no mental or physical deficiencies that

434
00:17:40,070 --> 00:17:32,960
i've noticed

435
00:17:44,710 --> 00:17:43,029
hi my name is alex and my question is

436
00:17:46,549 --> 00:17:44,720
knowing that you will lose muscle mass

437
00:17:51,270 --> 00:17:46,559
in space what adjustments are made to

438
00:17:54,310 --> 00:17:52,710
diet wise

439
00:17:56,230 --> 00:17:54,320
they put us on kind of a program to eat

440
00:17:58,230 --> 00:17:56,240
a certain number of calories a day

441
00:18:00,549 --> 00:17:58,240
it's really hard to achieve that but

442
00:18:02,070 --> 00:18:00,559
we're working hard at it i never get

443
00:18:04,390 --> 00:18:02,080
really to the full amount but i get

444
00:18:05,350 --> 00:18:04,400
probably 70 to 75 of the calories every

445
00:18:06,549 --> 00:18:05,360
day

446
00:18:08,630 --> 00:18:06,559
and they're needed especially with all

447
00:18:10,549 --> 00:18:08,640
the working out we're doing and like you

448
00:18:12,310 --> 00:18:10,559
mentioned you would lose muscle mass if

449
00:18:13,590 --> 00:18:12,320
you weren't working out all the time so

450
00:18:15,350 --> 00:18:13,600
since we're doing all those we're eating

451
00:18:19,110 --> 00:18:15,360
a lot and we're working out a lot most

452
00:18:19,120 --> 00:18:22,870
thank you

453
00:18:27,270 --> 00:18:24,950
hi commander my name is bailey siegfried

454
00:18:29,669 --> 00:18:27,280
with nordam in flight night space week

455
00:18:30,950 --> 00:18:29,679
i'm standing in for a jinx student with

456
00:18:33,110 --> 00:18:30,960
his question

457
00:18:37,350 --> 00:18:33,120
what kind of entertainment activities do

458
00:18:41,830 --> 00:18:39,270
we actually have quite a bit we can get

459
00:18:43,510 --> 00:18:41,840
tv shows or movies anything that we

460
00:18:44,870 --> 00:18:43,520
prefer or that are up there's tons of

461
00:18:47,190 --> 00:18:44,880
movies and things already up here on our

462
00:18:49,270 --> 00:18:47,200
computers which is nice i'm a big sports

463
00:18:50,470 --> 00:18:49,280
fan so i get a lot of games sent up to

464
00:18:51,830 --> 00:18:50,480
me

465
00:18:54,789 --> 00:18:51,840
and that's been pretty nice especially

466
00:18:57,110 --> 00:18:54,799
through the playoffs here in the nfl

467
00:18:59,029 --> 00:18:57,120
and it'll soon be march madness so we'll

468
00:19:01,990 --> 00:18:59,039
be watching a bunch of that stuff

469
00:19:04,310 --> 00:19:02,000
as we kind of close out my mission

470
00:19:06,390 --> 00:19:04,320
thank you

471
00:19:08,789 --> 00:19:06,400
hey shane awesome job before we turn you

472
00:19:10,630 --> 00:19:08,799
over to the mc here question from digger

473
00:19:13,110 --> 00:19:10,640
and this is inside joke alert for the

474
00:19:20,789 --> 00:19:13,120
audience i want to hear what comes after

475
00:19:24,230 --> 00:19:22,630
wow you're taking me back there i've

476
00:19:26,390 --> 00:19:24,240
already probably forgotten that part of

477
00:19:29,669 --> 00:19:26,400
my brains already dropped that so you'll

478
00:19:32,390 --> 00:19:29,679
have to you'll have to finish that

479
00:19:34,310 --> 00:19:32,400
for the audience here shane had a big

480
00:19:36,630 --> 00:19:34,320
part to do in teaching astronauts how to

481
00:19:38,950 --> 00:19:36,640
land the space shuttle back before

482
00:19:40,630 --> 00:19:38,960
he went to station

483
00:19:41,990 --> 00:19:40,640
thanks shane this has been great bud and

484
00:19:45,110 --> 00:19:42,000
you're doing a great job you're making

485
00:19:47,669 --> 00:19:46,390
thanks tigger and thanks to all the

486
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:47,679
students it was great being with you

487
00:20:01,350 --> 00:19:50,690
today have an awesome

488
00:20:04,870 --> 00:20:03,190
shane if you can still hear us we've got

489
00:20:07,190 --> 00:20:04,880
just a couple minutes left in our in our

490
00:20:08,789 --> 00:20:07,200
window here

491
00:20:10,070 --> 00:20:08,799
can you take the opportunity just to

492
00:20:14,149 --> 00:20:10,080
tell us a little bit more about the

493
00:20:18,149 --> 00:20:15,590
yeah absolutely this is the us

494
00:20:20,070 --> 00:20:18,159
laboratory and this is where we do a lot

495
00:20:22,149 --> 00:20:20,080
of our research and science here that

496
00:20:23,029 --> 00:20:22,159
i'm kind of showing on this side of the

497
00:20:25,029 --> 00:20:23,039
lab

498
00:20:27,510 --> 00:20:25,039
we have racks all over a cool thing

499
00:20:29,270 --> 00:20:27,520
about space is we can use the ceiling

500
00:20:31,830 --> 00:20:29,280
the the floor as you would think of the

501
00:20:33,350 --> 00:20:31,840
floor and all the walls the same so i

502
00:20:36,310 --> 00:20:33,360
can have a drawer here i can have

503
00:20:38,390 --> 00:20:36,320
drawers up here we can use the complete

504
00:20:40,230 --> 00:20:38,400
volume so that's pretty nice and so you

505
00:20:41,590 --> 00:20:40,240
may be working upside down or right side

506
00:20:43,669 --> 00:20:41,600
up and you really don't know because

507
00:20:46,230 --> 00:20:43,679
there's no up or down in space this is a

508
00:20:47,590 --> 00:20:46,240
great module to my left here you

509
00:20:50,870 --> 00:20:47,600
probably can't see it but this is our

510
00:20:53,590 --> 00:20:50,880
stationary bike it uh it's on its own uh

511
00:20:55,590 --> 00:20:53,600
isolation system so it's i equate it to

512
00:20:57,350 --> 00:20:55,600
riding a unicycle on a trampoline it

513
00:20:58,870 --> 00:20:57,360
kind of balances and it's very hard to

514
00:21:00,710 --> 00:20:58,880
keep your balance but once you get the

515
00:21:02,310 --> 00:21:00,720
hang of it you get a great workout on

516
00:21:05,350 --> 00:21:02,320
that

517
00:21:06,950 --> 00:21:05,360
behind me is the robotic workstation so

518
00:21:08,710 --> 00:21:06,960
what we're doing now is using the one

519
00:21:10,549 --> 00:21:08,720
behind me as a backup

520
00:21:12,630 --> 00:21:10,559
in case the one in the cupola with all

521
00:21:14,630 --> 00:21:12,640
the windows fails tomorrow then we'll

522
00:21:16,870 --> 00:21:14,640
come over here and finish the release of

523
00:21:19,029 --> 00:21:16,880
that japanese vehicle right behind me

524
00:21:20,630 --> 00:21:19,039
here on the robotic workstation

525
00:21:22,950 --> 00:21:20,640
and then our command post is kind of

526
00:21:24,789 --> 00:21:22,960
just beyond that um and that's kind of

527
00:21:26,470 --> 00:21:24,799
where we have all emergency books there

528
00:21:28,470 --> 00:21:26,480
we have a computer there and we're doing

529
00:21:30,070 --> 00:21:28,480
our our daily conferences with the

530
00:21:32,070 --> 00:21:30,080
ground teams all around the world that's

531
00:21:35,590 --> 00:21:32,080
where we kind of hang out to do those

532
00:21:39,909 --> 00:21:37,669
thank you shane well as we as we come to
