1
00:00:06,070 --> 00:00:02,629
station houston are you ready for the

2
00:00:11,589 --> 00:00:08,549
we are ready

3
00:00:12,390 --> 00:00:11,599
jscpao please call station for a voice

4
00:00:15,829 --> 00:00:12,400
check

5
00:00:18,150 --> 00:00:15,839
station this is haley fick

6
00:00:21,670 --> 00:00:18,160
media social media specialist how do you

7
00:00:27,349 --> 00:00:25,109
hey haley we hear you loud and clear

8
00:00:29,509 --> 00:00:27,359
awesome so first we are going to take a

9
00:00:31,910 --> 00:00:29,519
couple questions selected from twitter

10
00:00:34,389 --> 00:00:31,920
and instagram and then we will be taking

11
00:00:36,229 --> 00:00:34,399
questions live from facebook so we're

12
00:00:39,430 --> 00:00:36,239
going to start off from with a question

13
00:00:41,830 --> 00:00:39,440
from kiana on instagram and she asks

14
00:00:43,830 --> 00:00:41,840
what was the first thing you thought

15
00:00:48,790 --> 00:00:43,840
when you got to the space station and

16
00:00:52,869 --> 00:00:50,790
that's a great question looking out at

17
00:00:54,470 --> 00:00:52,879
our planet is spectacular i mean no

18
00:00:55,910 --> 00:00:54,480
matter how you how you look at it if

19
00:00:58,389 --> 00:00:55,920
you're looking at day or night no matter

20
00:00:59,750 --> 00:00:58,399
where you are over the planet so to me

21
00:01:01,029 --> 00:00:59,760
it was very humbling so i think that's

22
00:01:02,709 --> 00:01:01,039
the word that came to mind looking out

23
00:01:06,230 --> 00:01:02,719
the window it's just humbling seeing our

24
00:01:09,910 --> 00:01:08,390
awesome i think the first time i saw the

25
00:01:13,910 --> 00:01:09,920
planet

26
00:01:16,630 --> 00:01:13,920
from space um the first thing that went

27
00:01:19,190 --> 00:01:16,640
through my head was just how incredible

28
00:01:21,429 --> 00:01:19,200
the colors were the it's almost like

29
00:01:24,310 --> 00:01:21,439
they had texture it was just really

30
00:01:30,149 --> 00:01:27,190
awesome amber on facebook wants to know

31
00:01:32,950 --> 00:01:30,159
we always see amazing images of earth

32
00:01:34,630 --> 00:01:32,960
from the space station but i'm curious

33
00:01:36,710 --> 00:01:34,640
what kind of other views can you see

34
00:01:38,789 --> 00:01:36,720
from up there for example can you see

35
00:01:45,190 --> 00:01:38,799
satellites in orbit have you witnessed

36
00:01:48,550 --> 00:01:47,030
i've seen occasionally a satellite

37
00:01:51,030 --> 00:01:48,560
what's really interesting though is

38
00:01:53,270 --> 00:01:51,040
actually i've seen one below us before

39
00:01:55,749 --> 00:01:53,280
and it's pretty neat to think of

40
00:01:58,389 --> 00:01:55,759
us as being just another satellite up

41
00:02:00,389 --> 00:01:58,399
here orbiting the planet

42
00:02:02,469 --> 00:02:00,399
but in general no you don't see them

43
00:02:03,830 --> 00:02:02,479
especially during the daylight

44
00:02:05,670 --> 00:02:03,840
because of the

45
00:02:08,229 --> 00:02:05,680
it just won't light things up so it has

46
00:02:10,710 --> 00:02:08,239
to be and dusk or dawn time frame to in

47
00:02:13,110 --> 00:02:10,720
order to see those satellites just like

48
00:02:14,710 --> 00:02:13,120
that's when you can see us

49
00:02:19,990 --> 00:02:14,720
as dusk or dawn

50
00:02:24,390 --> 00:02:20,949
awesome

51
00:02:32,630 --> 00:02:24,400
mandopha on instagram asks earth or

52
00:02:38,150 --> 00:02:34,869
that's a tough question i think viewing

53
00:02:40,470 --> 00:02:38,160
earth from space is the most beautiful

54
00:02:41,509 --> 00:02:40,480
so a combination of the two there but

55
00:02:43,589 --> 00:02:41,519
you know when you're looking at our

56
00:02:45,190 --> 00:02:43,599
planet it is spectacular you see the

57
00:02:46,949 --> 00:02:45,200
thin layer of atmosphere that protects

58
00:02:48,790 --> 00:02:46,959
everybody on earth from living and dying

59
00:02:50,229 --> 00:02:48,800
and it's it's pretty unique you see

60
00:02:51,670 --> 00:02:50,239
things like auroras that we've had the

61
00:02:54,070 --> 00:02:51,680
privilege of seeing up here every now

62
00:02:57,030 --> 00:02:54,080
and then that are just spectacular you

63
00:02:58,869 --> 00:02:57,040
know green glowing kind of uh dancing

64
00:03:00,949 --> 00:02:58,879
clouds so to speak as we're going around

65
00:03:02,229 --> 00:03:00,959
the earth so that's pretty special

66
00:03:06,550 --> 00:03:02,239
as well as seeing all the beautiful

67
00:03:12,229 --> 00:03:09,430
sounds like a great experience boardmama

68
00:03:21,350 --> 00:03:12,239
on instagram asks what could possibly be

69
00:03:26,869 --> 00:03:23,830
actually there's a few places based on

70
00:03:29,110 --> 00:03:26,879
what i've seen up here uh from space

71
00:03:32,789 --> 00:03:29,120
that i'd like to go visit i think

72
00:03:36,070 --> 00:03:32,799
australia just looks so interesting and

73
00:03:38,070 --> 00:03:36,080
even africa very beautiful places from

74
00:03:39,990 --> 00:03:38,080
here that i would like to visit at some

75
00:03:43,430 --> 00:03:40,000
point in time so i i would say to see

76
00:03:47,030 --> 00:03:43,440
them from a lower altitude might be on

77
00:03:51,030 --> 00:03:49,670
and for me uh you know whatever you know

78
00:03:52,630 --> 00:03:51,040
all right we have hobbies on earth as

79
00:03:54,390 --> 00:03:52,640
well so um there's some bucket list

80
00:03:55,509 --> 00:03:54,400
items for me and my hobbies that i still

81
00:03:57,030 --> 00:03:55,519
want to do

82
00:03:59,030 --> 00:03:57,040
but if i could come up here with my

83
00:04:01,350 --> 00:03:59,040
family i think that would be number a

84
00:04:03,509 --> 00:04:01,360
good one

85
00:04:06,470 --> 00:04:03,519
so this one i think is probably about a

86
00:04:08,949 --> 00:04:06,480
story of peggy and the cargo bag brian

87
00:04:14,070 --> 00:04:08,959
asks who has pulled the best prank in

88
00:04:19,590 --> 00:04:16,150
well actually it was fun because we all

89
00:04:22,469 --> 00:04:19,600
we all did it together um we uh

90
00:04:25,270 --> 00:04:22,479
tomas is actually his idea and uh but he

91
00:04:26,870 --> 00:04:25,280
couldn't quite fit in the bag and uh i'm

92
00:04:29,189 --> 00:04:26,880
like i think i can probably fit in and

93
00:04:31,590 --> 00:04:29,199
so then tomah and

94
00:04:33,909 --> 00:04:31,600
shane took me down

95
00:04:36,629 --> 00:04:33,919
to the see the russians for dinner that

96
00:04:38,469 --> 00:04:36,639
night and uh i they said they had a

97
00:04:40,150 --> 00:04:38,479
surprise for them and they unzipped it

98
00:04:41,670 --> 00:04:40,160
and i popped out so that was that was

99
00:04:45,030 --> 00:04:41,680
the most fun we've had

100
00:04:50,550 --> 00:04:48,390
awesome cj on twitter asks what inspired

101
00:04:54,830 --> 00:04:50,560
you to become an astronaut and work for

102
00:04:58,469 --> 00:04:57,270
particular well for me it was back to

103
00:05:01,430 --> 00:04:58,479
the

104
00:05:03,350 --> 00:05:01,440
small child that's what inspired me to

105
00:05:05,270 --> 00:05:03,360
initially want to become an astronaut of

106
00:05:06,469 --> 00:05:05,280
course it takes a lot of hard work and

107
00:05:07,270 --> 00:05:06,479
education

108
00:05:09,590 --> 00:05:07,280
and

109
00:05:10,390 --> 00:05:09,600
for me a career in the army before i was

110
00:05:11,990 --> 00:05:10,400
even

111
00:05:13,909 --> 00:05:12,000
i would say eligible to become an

112
00:05:16,310 --> 00:05:13,919
astronaut and work at nasa in that

113
00:05:17,990 --> 00:05:16,320
regard so it's it's a long career it's

114
00:05:19,270 --> 00:05:18,000
something that's never guaranteed and it

115
00:05:24,390 --> 00:05:19,280
just took a lot of hard work and

116
00:05:29,670 --> 00:05:26,790
and along those same lines urbina on

117
00:05:35,430 --> 00:05:29,680
instagram asks how have you used your

118
00:05:41,189 --> 00:05:36,710
well actually

119
00:05:43,189 --> 00:05:41,199
i'm a biochemist by training and so i

120
00:05:46,230 --> 00:05:43,199
got to do some stem cell research up

121
00:05:49,270 --> 00:05:46,240
here so tissue culture of stem cells uh

122
00:05:50,950 --> 00:05:49,280
in in microgravity to see if they can

123
00:05:53,270 --> 00:05:50,960
proliferate better or differently than

124
00:05:55,590 --> 00:05:53,280
they do on earth and

125
00:05:57,590 --> 00:05:55,600
look at that as future for and future

126
00:06:00,390 --> 00:05:57,600
applications of using those types of

127
00:06:03,590 --> 00:06:00,400
cells that were proliferated or grown in

128
00:06:06,390 --> 00:06:03,600
orbit so that was one one

129
00:06:09,029 --> 00:06:06,400
very closely relevant area that i've

130
00:06:10,950 --> 00:06:09,039
gotten to work on but i think what's

131
00:06:13,029 --> 00:06:10,960
most fun about the research up here is

132
00:06:14,870 --> 00:06:13,039
the diversity when we have 200

133
00:06:21,110 --> 00:06:14,880
investigations

134
00:06:23,110 --> 00:06:21,120
the being able to do all different kinds

135
00:06:27,510 --> 00:06:23,120
of things is what makes it interesting

136
00:06:31,430 --> 00:06:29,510
so we have uh people watching live and

137
00:06:34,550 --> 00:06:31,440
matt must be listening because he asked

138
00:06:36,629 --> 00:06:34,560
if you could add any experience to any

139
00:06:44,150 --> 00:06:36,639
experiments to the space station what

140
00:06:48,469 --> 00:06:45,670
yeah it's a tough one for me we've had

141
00:06:50,550 --> 00:06:48,479
so many like peggy mentioned already the

142
00:06:51,990 --> 00:06:50,560
the most fun i think i've had was when

143
00:06:54,070 --> 00:06:52,000
we got the chance to grow lettuce up

144
00:06:55,749 --> 00:06:54,080
here and that was really cool

145
00:06:58,230 --> 00:06:55,759
took four to six weeks for the lettuce

146
00:07:00,150 --> 00:06:58,240
to develop but actually was was really

147
00:07:01,990 --> 00:07:00,160
nice looked beautiful it was crunchy we

148
00:07:04,230 --> 00:07:02,000
got to eat it so it was nice to have

149
00:07:05,830 --> 00:07:04,240
some fresh vegetables on orbit so maybe

150
00:07:09,110 --> 00:07:05,840
a few more things like that for me would

151
00:07:12,950 --> 00:07:10,870
yeah i'm a plant lover too so i like

152
00:07:14,010 --> 00:07:12,960
that idea of having more plant plant

153
00:07:15,270 --> 00:07:14,020
experiments

154
00:07:17,510 --> 00:07:15,280
[Music]

155
00:07:19,350 --> 00:07:17,520
i you know i anticipate and in the

156
00:07:22,309 --> 00:07:19,360
future i think in the next few months

157
00:07:25,350 --> 00:07:22,319
even we will be doing much more uh

158
00:07:27,749 --> 00:07:25,360
cellular related uh research which

159
00:07:29,670 --> 00:07:27,759
personally i'm more interested in and i

160
00:07:31,830 --> 00:07:29,680
think has some potential

161
00:07:33,830 --> 00:07:31,840
for understanding some of the mechanisms

162
00:07:35,029 --> 00:07:33,840
of changes that go on for instance i

163
00:07:35,990 --> 00:07:35,039
think we're going to grow some bone

164
00:07:37,589 --> 00:07:36,000
cells

165
00:07:39,589 --> 00:07:37,599
and we can try and maybe better

166
00:07:41,909 --> 00:07:39,599
understand that bone demineralization

167
00:07:43,670 --> 00:07:41,919
process that occurs in us here in

168
00:07:45,990 --> 00:07:43,680
microgravity

169
00:07:48,390 --> 00:07:46,000
but it also would be very applicable to

170
00:07:53,670 --> 00:07:48,400
our understanding of the process in

171
00:07:58,150 --> 00:07:56,550
so rob is wondering do you ever wake up

172
00:08:03,589 --> 00:07:58,160
in the morning and forget that you're in

173
00:08:07,749 --> 00:08:05,510
now it's kind of hard because you're

174
00:08:09,350 --> 00:08:07,759
just floating around so for me it's

175
00:08:11,029 --> 00:08:09,360
pretty easy you come out of your

176
00:08:12,469 --> 00:08:11,039
sleeping bag and you're floating and

177
00:08:13,830 --> 00:08:12,479
you're trying to you know get dressed

178
00:08:15,110 --> 00:08:13,840
and everything to get ready for the

179
00:08:21,510 --> 00:08:15,120
morning so

180
00:08:30,710 --> 00:08:24,070
steven is wondering how long did it take

181
00:08:35,670 --> 00:08:33,269
well i think you adapt

182
00:08:39,110 --> 00:08:35,680
from a physiologic perspective somewhere

183
00:08:41,029 --> 00:08:39,120
between a week to three weeks maybe

184
00:08:43,670 --> 00:08:41,039
at least on my first flight it took

185
00:08:45,829 --> 00:08:43,680
almost three weeks on

186
00:08:47,829 --> 00:08:45,839
my second flight i felt like i adapted

187
00:08:49,829 --> 00:08:47,839
in two days and on this flight i felt

188
00:08:51,110 --> 00:08:49,839
like i was adapted as soon as i was in

189
00:08:52,949 --> 00:08:51,120
space

190
00:08:54,870 --> 00:08:52,959
in spite of the fact that it had been

191
00:08:56,630 --> 00:08:54,880
almost nine years between my second and

192
00:08:59,750 --> 00:08:56,640
third flight so

193
00:09:01,750 --> 00:08:59,760
um our bodies do adapt and learn how to

194
00:09:03,670 --> 00:09:01,760
work in in this environment but there's

195
00:09:05,910 --> 00:09:03,680
always frustrations uh you know of

196
00:09:08,310 --> 00:09:05,920
losing a tool you know that you thought

197
00:09:10,710 --> 00:09:08,320
you had put inside a ziploc bag and it

198
00:09:12,470 --> 00:09:10,720
floated out or had velcroed it to the

199
00:09:16,070 --> 00:09:12,480
floor and maybe bumped it with your foot

200
00:09:18,389 --> 00:09:16,080
or something so there's always those

201
00:09:20,070 --> 00:09:18,399
things that kind of remind you

202
00:09:22,150 --> 00:09:20,080
frequently that

203
00:09:24,870 --> 00:09:22,160
zero gravity does have some challenges

204
00:09:26,550 --> 00:09:24,880
associated with it

205
00:09:28,550 --> 00:09:26,560
so daniel is wondering about the

206
00:09:30,470 --> 00:09:28,560
opposite he is wondering what is the

207
00:09:37,190 --> 00:09:30,480
physical impact on your body when you

208
00:09:40,310 --> 00:09:38,630
well i'm about to find out here in a

209
00:09:42,070 --> 00:09:40,320
little less than three weeks i guess so

210
00:09:43,590 --> 00:09:42,080
this is my first long duration mission

211
00:09:46,470 --> 00:09:43,600
it's going to be a lot different than my

212
00:09:48,310 --> 00:09:46,480
uh shuttle mission i did a while back so

213
00:09:50,150 --> 00:09:48,320
uh it'll be interesting to see we do

214
00:09:52,470 --> 00:09:50,160
work out a lot up here and that's to

215
00:09:54,389 --> 00:09:52,480
help with our recovery back on earth as

216
00:09:55,750 --> 00:09:54,399
well as keeping our bones and muscles

217
00:09:58,230 --> 00:09:55,760
healthy so

218
00:09:59,430 --> 00:09:58,240
i'm expecting i don't know a couple days

219
00:10:00,710 --> 00:09:59,440
to a week

220
00:10:02,230 --> 00:10:00,720
somewhere in there everybody's a little

221
00:10:03,670 --> 00:10:02,240
bit different when you return to earth

222
00:10:05,430 --> 00:10:03,680
some people

223
00:10:07,350 --> 00:10:05,440
are worse coming up and some are worse

224
00:10:08,949 --> 00:10:07,360
going down and i'll just have to see i'm

225
00:10:13,670 --> 00:10:08,959
a big science experiment right now and

226
00:10:19,350 --> 00:10:16,710
awesome so kim is wondering besides the

227
00:10:25,829 --> 00:10:19,360
fresh fruits and vegetables what foods

228
00:10:31,430 --> 00:10:28,949
well pizza would be on the list

229
00:10:33,670 --> 00:10:31,440
a lot you know we get occasionally cargo

230
00:10:35,269 --> 00:10:33,680
vehicles will bring up some fresh fruits

231
00:10:37,670 --> 00:10:35,279
and and

232
00:10:39,670 --> 00:10:37,680
we've grown the lettuce but i think the

233
00:10:42,069 --> 00:10:39,680
thing that i miss most is like you know

234
00:10:45,350 --> 00:10:42,079
a really nice crunchy salad with lots of

235
00:10:46,710 --> 00:10:45,360
different types of vegetables on it

236
00:10:51,990 --> 00:10:46,720
that's probably the thing i miss the

237
00:10:56,870 --> 00:10:54,389
so mark is wondering how long do you

238
00:11:02,069 --> 00:10:56,880
spend working each day and how do you

239
00:11:06,389 --> 00:11:04,389
so our normal work day is from about 7

240
00:11:08,230 --> 00:11:06,399
30 in the morning to 7 30 at night so

241
00:11:09,829 --> 00:11:08,240
about a 12 hour work day

242
00:11:12,150 --> 00:11:09,839
within those 12 hours we do have a

243
00:11:13,990 --> 00:11:12,160
couple hours to exercise so that's built

244
00:11:15,590 --> 00:11:14,000
in there and then the rest of the day we

245
00:11:17,110 --> 00:11:15,600
just do activities that are driven by

246
00:11:18,949 --> 00:11:17,120
all the mission control centers around

247
00:11:20,870 --> 00:11:18,959
the world uh with science with

248
00:11:23,190 --> 00:11:20,880
maintenance sometimes we're doing space

249
00:11:25,269 --> 00:11:23,200
walks like we do this this coming friday

250
00:11:27,110 --> 00:11:25,279
sometimes we're using the robotic arm to

251
00:11:29,670 --> 00:11:27,120
grab visiting vehicles that show up so

252
00:11:31,670 --> 00:11:29,680
it's a wide variety of activities and it

253
00:11:33,509 --> 00:11:31,680
keeps us hopping and keeps us very

254
00:11:37,829 --> 00:11:33,519
interested of course because every day

255
00:11:47,750 --> 00:11:39,910
joe is wondering what do you plan on

256
00:11:51,269 --> 00:11:49,350
well it'll take like i mentioned a

257
00:11:52,870 --> 00:11:51,279
little while ago a few days to recover

258
00:11:54,790 --> 00:11:52,880
at least but i just look forward to

259
00:11:56,710 --> 00:11:54,800
being with the family i'm getting home

260
00:11:58,870 --> 00:11:56,720
the week of easter so we'll spend a nice

261
00:12:00,150 --> 00:11:58,880
easter weekend together with family and

262
00:12:03,269 --> 00:12:00,160
friends and i look forward to seeing

263
00:12:07,430 --> 00:12:05,269
robert asked

264
00:12:12,949 --> 00:12:07,440
does your perspective about the world

265
00:12:16,870 --> 00:12:14,629
well i definitely think

266
00:12:19,670 --> 00:12:16,880
your perspective of the our planet

267
00:12:22,550 --> 00:12:19,680
changes because it being viewing this

268
00:12:25,030 --> 00:12:22,560
our planet from this perspective i think

269
00:12:27,910 --> 00:12:25,040
makes you understand that it is we're

270
00:12:30,230 --> 00:12:27,920
all living on the same beautiful ball

271
00:12:31,750 --> 00:12:30,240
and it's protected by this very thin

272
00:12:34,150 --> 00:12:31,760
atmosphere

273
00:12:36,470 --> 00:12:34,160
uh and i do think you do have a

274
00:12:38,870 --> 00:12:36,480
different perspective on protecting uh

275
00:12:40,790 --> 00:12:38,880
what it is that we live on how fragile

276
00:12:42,310 --> 00:12:40,800
it it is

277
00:12:43,509 --> 00:12:42,320
i think

278
00:12:45,430 --> 00:12:43,519
you know the

279
00:12:46,629 --> 00:12:45,440
probably the most significant thing is

280
00:12:48,629 --> 00:12:46,639
uh

281
00:12:53,030 --> 00:12:48,639
it does give you an appreciation of

282
00:12:55,110 --> 00:12:53,040
being one planet one world one people

283
00:12:57,670 --> 00:12:55,120
awesome it is very international so

284
00:12:59,590 --> 00:12:57,680
ralph is wondering what time zone do you

285
00:13:04,470 --> 00:12:59,600
base your schedule on and is the whole

286
00:13:07,910 --> 00:13:06,069
we are almost always on the same

287
00:13:10,230 --> 00:13:07,920
schedule great question and we go off at

288
00:13:11,670 --> 00:13:10,240
gmt time so the time it is in london

289
00:13:15,030 --> 00:13:11,680
greenwich mean time

290
00:13:17,269 --> 00:13:15,040
um and so it's currently anyway it's

291
00:13:18,949 --> 00:13:17,279
five hours ahead of houston time four

292
00:13:20,389 --> 00:13:18,959
hours ahead of the east coast in the u.s

293
00:13:24,230 --> 00:13:20,399
and then you can do the math for all the

294
00:13:28,710 --> 00:13:26,629
graciela wants to know how long does it

295
00:13:37,269 --> 00:13:28,720
take for your voice to travel to earth

296
00:13:41,670 --> 00:13:39,670
actually uh in the past when i've flown

297
00:13:43,430 --> 00:13:41,680
we've had some satellite delays so it

298
00:13:45,269 --> 00:13:43,440
might take you know you might have a

299
00:13:48,230 --> 00:13:45,279
second and it made it difficult to talk

300
00:13:50,870 --> 00:13:48,240
with folks but i think these days

301
00:13:53,350 --> 00:13:50,880
there's really very rarely any kind of

302
00:13:55,590 --> 00:13:53,360
delay at all and so when we talk on the

303
00:13:57,350 --> 00:13:55,600
internet using internet protocol to our

304
00:13:59,910 --> 00:13:57,360
family and friends

305
00:14:01,750 --> 00:13:59,920
there's very very little delay at all so

306
00:14:05,990 --> 00:14:01,760
you don't end up talking over each other

307
00:14:10,069 --> 00:14:07,350
that's great because it's making

308
00:14:12,629 --> 00:14:10,079
facebook lives a lot easier for us

309
00:14:20,870 --> 00:14:12,639
morgan wants to know what is the most

310
00:14:23,269 --> 00:14:22,389
there's a lot of peggy's going to show

311
00:14:25,670 --> 00:14:23,279
you

312
00:14:27,030 --> 00:14:25,680
some chocolate coated

313
00:14:28,550 --> 00:14:27,040
peanuts there

314
00:14:29,670 --> 00:14:28,560
the way they're listed on our food

315
00:14:31,269 --> 00:14:29,680
package

316
00:14:33,430 --> 00:14:31,279
but if you open up anything that has a

317
00:14:35,350 --> 00:14:33,440
lot of pieces like that and you're not

318
00:14:37,030 --> 00:14:35,360
watching very carefully then they go all

319
00:14:38,790 --> 00:14:37,040
over the place so

320
00:14:40,389 --> 00:14:38,800
things like rice are tough because

321
00:14:42,069 --> 00:14:40,399
they're really small and they kind of go

322
00:14:44,310 --> 00:14:42,079
everywhere if they're if you don't watch

323
00:14:45,670 --> 00:14:44,320
what you're doing with the rice but in

324
00:14:47,030 --> 00:14:45,680
general things stick together if they

325
00:14:48,389 --> 00:14:47,040
have any liquid in them at all they're

326
00:14:50,310 --> 00:14:48,399
going to kind of stick together and

327
00:14:52,550 --> 00:14:50,320
allow you to eat them a little easier up

328
00:14:54,230 --> 00:14:52,560
here in microgravity a lot of times too

329
00:14:55,829 --> 00:14:54,240
we'll use tortillas as kind of just a

330
00:14:57,990 --> 00:14:55,839
vehicle to put something on so it

331
00:15:00,150 --> 00:14:58,000
doesn't go floating everywhere

332
00:15:02,949 --> 00:15:00,160
like peggy's doing right now so

333
00:15:06,790 --> 00:15:04,949
awesome jack is wondering

334
00:15:09,110 --> 00:15:06,800
is there an emergency way for you to

335
00:15:16,069 --> 00:15:09,120
turn back to return back to earth and do

336
00:15:19,350 --> 00:15:17,189
yeah

337
00:15:21,430 --> 00:15:19,360
we have the soyuz spacecraft with us

338
00:15:23,430 --> 00:15:21,440
right now each of us is on a

339
00:15:25,670 --> 00:15:23,440
three-person crew so even though our

340
00:15:27,269 --> 00:15:25,680
crew on total is six

341
00:15:29,910 --> 00:15:27,279
each of us shane and i would be in

342
00:15:30,710 --> 00:15:29,920
different soyuz and would return home on

343
00:15:31,670 --> 00:15:30,720
those

344
00:15:33,430 --> 00:15:31,680
future

345
00:15:35,749 --> 00:15:33,440
vehicles commercial crew vehicles that

346
00:15:37,590 --> 00:15:35,759
will be arriving here will also

347
00:15:40,550 --> 00:15:37,600
dock here and will provide that

348
00:15:43,509 --> 00:15:40,560
emergency capability so if we had

349
00:15:45,350 --> 00:15:43,519
a depressurization or a fire that was

350
00:15:46,389 --> 00:15:45,360
significant enough to require us to

351
00:15:49,269 --> 00:15:46,399
leave

352
00:15:51,670 --> 00:15:49,279
we would just get in our vehicles and

353
00:15:53,749 --> 00:15:51,680
go home if we needed we also have that

354
00:15:56,230 --> 00:15:53,759
as a for instance for medical

355
00:15:57,990 --> 00:15:56,240
emergencies or contingencies where we

356
00:15:59,189 --> 00:15:58,000
needed to get home we might send one

357
00:16:03,509 --> 00:15:59,199
crew home

358
00:16:11,509 --> 00:16:05,350
laura is wondering what does your

359
00:16:14,470 --> 00:16:13,030
great question it's very important for

360
00:16:17,110 --> 00:16:14,480
us up here we're about two to two and a

361
00:16:19,430 --> 00:16:17,120
half hours every day we work out about

362
00:16:21,430 --> 00:16:19,440
half of that is cardio so we have a

363
00:16:22,790 --> 00:16:21,440
stationary bike which is actually to my

364
00:16:25,189 --> 00:16:22,800
left it's not very stationary because

365
00:16:26,870 --> 00:16:25,199
it's floating while you're riding on it

366
00:16:28,470 --> 00:16:26,880
and we also have a treadmill so we do

367
00:16:31,030 --> 00:16:28,480
one of those and sometimes we do both of

368
00:16:33,110 --> 00:16:31,040
those for our aerobic activity during a

369
00:16:36,150 --> 00:16:33,120
day and then we have a machine called a

370
00:16:37,990 --> 00:16:36,160
red which is a it's a resistive machine

371
00:16:40,230 --> 00:16:38,000
so it's our weight lifting up here

372
00:16:41,670 --> 00:16:40,240
really incredible machine we all love it

373
00:16:43,030 --> 00:16:41,680
because it really gives you a nice feel

374
00:16:45,189 --> 00:16:43,040
like you're on earth when you're working

375
00:16:47,509 --> 00:16:45,199
out you can do everything from bench

376
00:16:48,470 --> 00:16:47,519
bench press to squats to deadlifts to

377
00:16:50,470 --> 00:16:48,480
curls

378
00:16:52,470 --> 00:16:50,480
triceps you know you name it we can do

379
00:16:55,030 --> 00:16:52,480
it up here and it's keeping our bodies

380
00:16:58,310 --> 00:16:55,040
toned and our muscles and bones uh

381
00:17:00,069 --> 00:16:58,320
healthy before we return to earth

382
00:17:03,030 --> 00:17:00,079
awesome so i think we have time for one

383
00:17:05,669 --> 00:17:03,040
or two more lisa wants to know what do

384
00:17:17,029 --> 00:17:05,679
you wish we earthlings would know that

385
00:17:23,669 --> 00:17:20,069
space is a fantastic place international

386
00:17:26,789 --> 00:17:23,679
cooperation uh is a strength of what

387
00:17:28,950 --> 00:17:26,799
we're doing now and i think will be a

388
00:17:30,390 --> 00:17:28,960
very valuable asset in our future

389
00:17:33,430 --> 00:17:30,400
explorations

390
00:17:34,789 --> 00:17:33,440
and i think it can show the world um

391
00:17:37,430 --> 00:17:34,799
that we can do

392
00:17:40,070 --> 00:17:37,440
very technically challenging things uh

393
00:17:44,549 --> 00:17:42,310
okay so one more for our facebook live

394
00:17:47,190 --> 00:17:44,559
audience um

395
00:17:48,549 --> 00:17:47,200
kevin is wondering do you guys get

396
00:17:58,870 --> 00:17:48,559
iphones

397
00:17:59,590 --> 00:17:58,880
internet but it's really slow i mean

398
00:18:03,990 --> 00:17:59,600
it's

399
00:18:04,870 --> 00:18:04,000
you guys are dealing with on the ground

400
00:18:06,390 --> 00:18:04,880
so

401
00:18:07,430 --> 00:18:06,400
we do have the capability but it's

402
00:18:08,470 --> 00:18:07,440
pretty weak

403
00:18:09,990 --> 00:18:08,480
um

404
00:18:12,310 --> 00:18:10,000
what else we do have the capability to

405
00:18:13,590 --> 00:18:12,320
talk to our families on this ip phone

406
00:18:15,110 --> 00:18:13,600
that peggy mentioned earlier that's

407
00:18:17,990 --> 00:18:15,120
pretty nice family and friends we can

408
00:18:20,390 --> 00:18:18,000
call uh we have email as well that it's

409
00:18:21,590 --> 00:18:20,400
not instantaneous but it's pretty good

410
00:18:22,789 --> 00:18:21,600
and we're not checking it a whole lot

411
00:18:24,070 --> 00:18:22,799
because we're working most of the day

412
00:18:30,470 --> 00:18:24,080
but in the evenings or in the mornings

413
00:18:35,350 --> 00:18:33,190
awesome um so i think we might have time

414
00:18:37,270 --> 00:18:35,360
for one more quick one what is the first

415
00:18:45,990 --> 00:18:37,280
thing you want to do when you get back

416
00:18:50,870 --> 00:18:48,470
well obviously i want to see uh my

417
00:18:54,230 --> 00:18:50,880
husband and my friends and family

418
00:18:56,630 --> 00:18:54,240
that'll be probably number one priority

419
00:18:58,470 --> 00:18:56,640
getting that salad i asked for earlier

420
00:18:59,990 --> 00:18:58,480
be probably number two

421
00:19:01,830 --> 00:19:00,000
priority

422
00:19:04,150 --> 00:19:01,840
i i think um

423
00:19:06,470 --> 00:19:04,160
you know we have in cute incredible

424
00:19:08,950 --> 00:19:06,480
views here uh and we get to look out the

425
00:19:11,190 --> 00:19:08,960
window but i i think i'd like to feel

426
00:19:13,190 --> 00:19:11,200
the sun on my face

427
00:19:14,950 --> 00:19:13,200
and during ebas you can kind of feel the

428
00:19:17,270 --> 00:19:14,960
heat of the sun on your face but it's

429
00:19:20,630 --> 00:19:17,280
