1
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:03,090
stem at the Lange middle school this is

2
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:04,210
Mission Control Houston

3
00:00:23,750 --> 00:00:14,790
can I turn I got you loud and clear

4
00:00:28,470 --> 00:00:26,519
pretty excited we're honored to have you

5
00:00:30,450 --> 00:00:28,480
speaking here with us today and we have

6
00:00:32,519 --> 00:00:30,460
some young scientists here who are eager

7
00:00:37,350 --> 00:00:32,529
to ask you questions so with your

8
00:00:38,940 --> 00:00:37,360
permission we'll go ahead and begin that

9
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:38,950
would be great I hope that all of you

10
00:00:49,130 --> 00:00:40,690
guys are doing well after after the

11
00:00:53,639 --> 00:00:52,020
my question is what classes majors or

12
00:00:57,119 --> 00:00:53,649
activities did you take in college that

13
00:00:59,459 --> 00:00:57,129
helped you in becoming an astronaut a

14
00:01:01,260 --> 00:00:59,469
great question because there are so many

15
00:01:02,670 --> 00:01:01,270
things that are required for this job so

16
00:01:06,210 --> 00:01:02,680
there's such a variety of things what we

17
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:06,220
do I was at math major so I was the M in

18
00:01:10,170 --> 00:01:08,770
stem going through the signal but I was

19
00:01:12,510 --> 00:01:10,180
always fascinated with the science stuff

20
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:12,520
to physics and chemistry how things

21
00:01:17,039 --> 00:01:14,890
worked why they worked so that was also

22
00:01:19,050 --> 00:01:17,049
very interesting and necessary part of

23
00:01:21,929 --> 00:01:19,060
my education but also going back into

24
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:21,939
high school and other things is things

25
00:01:24,929 --> 00:01:23,530
like metal shop and wood shop where

26
00:01:26,820 --> 00:01:24,939
things were I'm physically learning how

27
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:26,830
to use tools and how to make things and

28
00:01:30,660 --> 00:01:28,450
how to solve problems in a concrete

29
00:01:33,870 --> 00:01:30,670
sense versus just a theoretical sense

30
00:01:35,310 --> 00:01:33,880
like I was maybe during that and so the

31
00:01:36,899 --> 00:01:35,320
thing that I always loved about math was

32
00:01:39,179 --> 00:01:36,909
that it teaches you how to solve

33
00:01:41,039 --> 00:01:39,189
problems and remember one course I took

34
00:01:43,140 --> 00:01:41,049
my senior year at the city though it was

35
00:01:45,660 --> 00:01:43,150
called like complex numerical analysis I

36
00:01:47,910 --> 00:01:45,670
think the only numbers I ever saw the

37
00:01:49,530 --> 00:01:47,920
entire semester in that math class well

38
00:01:51,569 --> 00:01:49,540
the numbers of the problems now problem

39
00:01:53,550 --> 00:01:51,579
number one and there was all formulas

40
00:01:55,859 --> 00:01:53,560
and letters and all that kind of symbols

41
00:01:57,510 --> 00:01:55,869
and so what I loved about it was that

42
00:01:59,520 --> 00:01:57,520
math teaches you if you can't solve a

43
00:02:01,590 --> 00:01:59,530
problem one way you can find another way

44
00:02:03,210 --> 00:02:01,600
to solve the problem and that trait is

45
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:03,220
one thing that is absolutely critical

46
00:02:06,210 --> 00:02:04,570
that for me as a year when I was a

47
00:02:08,009 --> 00:02:06,220
Marine Corps officer when I was a pilot

48
00:02:11,310 --> 00:02:08,019
test pilot and now certainly as an

49
00:02:16,540 --> 00:02:14,470
hello my name is Emma Reid and my

50
00:02:18,640 --> 00:02:16,550
question is what do you think the next

51
00:02:23,950 --> 00:02:18,650
big accomplishment or discovery will be

52
00:02:25,630 --> 00:02:23,960
in faith I think the next big

53
00:02:27,580 --> 00:02:25,640
accomplishment because we just had a

54
00:02:30,640 --> 00:02:27,590
really revolutionary one really recently

55
00:02:33,010 --> 00:02:30,650
we're here not one but two US companies

56
00:02:35,530 --> 00:02:33,020
take the first stage of their rocket

57
00:02:38,230 --> 00:02:35,540
launch the payload in space and return

58
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:38,240
that rocket back to the earth where it

59
00:02:43,210 --> 00:02:40,850
can be reused very expensive part very

60
00:02:44,710 --> 00:02:43,220
big part has a lot of the engines that's

61
00:02:46,210 --> 00:02:44,720
revolutionary that's like when we

62
00:02:48,010 --> 00:02:46,220
started building airplanes you know at

63
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:48,020
the turn of the century and then you

64
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:50,450
know back 100 years ago so I think you

65
00:02:54,550 --> 00:02:52,730
know nowadays it's gonna be it's gonna

66
00:02:56,980 --> 00:02:54,560
be the spacecraft right now we've been

67
00:02:58,930 --> 00:02:56,990
flying here on the space station for 17

68
00:03:00,340 --> 00:02:58,940
years we've got vehicles that are coming

69
00:03:02,610 --> 00:03:00,350
to and from the space station built by

70
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:02,620
commercial companies but this craft

71
00:03:07,150 --> 00:03:05,090
Orion spacecraft that's the ones going

72
00:03:09,660 --> 00:03:07,160
to actually go out beyond the Van Allen

73
00:03:11,790 --> 00:03:09,670
radiation belts in the protection of the

74
00:03:14,290 --> 00:03:11,800
that we have here surrounding the earth

75
00:03:16,330 --> 00:03:14,300
and so the vehicles that can go out with

76
00:03:17,860 --> 00:03:16,340
Stan the deep space and then the

77
00:03:19,810 --> 00:03:17,870
propulsion systems that will get us to

78
00:03:21,970 --> 00:03:19,820
the next planets where right now we have

79
00:03:23,050 --> 00:03:21,980
to carry all the fuel with us and once

80
00:03:24,820 --> 00:03:23,060
we burn it getting out of the atmosphere

81
00:03:26,470 --> 00:03:24,830
we don't have it to go places and so

82
00:03:28,810 --> 00:03:26,480
we're kind of limited on how far and how

83
00:03:30,250 --> 00:03:28,820
fast we can go but once we can go ahead

84
00:03:32,050 --> 00:03:30,260
and figure out how to get engines that

85
00:03:33,729 --> 00:03:32,060
can fire the whole time and fuel them

86
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:33,739
well then we can get places a lot

87
00:03:37,180 --> 00:03:34,610
quicker and that's gonna be

88
00:03:42,340 --> 00:03:37,190
revolutionary as far as travel within

89
00:03:44,979 --> 00:03:42,350
our solar system and beyond hello my

90
00:03:48,340 --> 00:03:44,989
name is Isaiah Roper and how did the

91
00:03:51,970 --> 00:03:48,350
solar eclipse light look like from ISS

92
00:03:53,380 --> 00:03:51,980
on Monday August 21st well hopefully

93
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:53,390
they're able to show you on the big

94
00:03:57,310 --> 00:03:55,130
screen some pictures I sent you that

95
00:04:00,070 --> 00:03:57,320
show what the solar eclipse looked like

96
00:04:02,259 --> 00:04:00,080
none of us had ever seen one from space

97
00:04:03,130 --> 00:04:02,269
and so it was pretty amazing all crammed

98
00:04:04,930 --> 00:04:03,140
up in the windows

99
00:04:06,250 --> 00:04:04,940
you know like kinda like the kids in the

100
00:04:08,290 --> 00:04:06,260
car when you first pick the Disney World

101
00:04:09,690 --> 00:04:08,300
you know to see what's there and there

102
00:04:12,119 --> 00:04:09,700
was this big

103
00:04:14,130 --> 00:04:12,129
huge shadow and it was just amazing how

104
00:04:15,630 --> 00:04:14,140
this especially was over the clouds how

105
00:04:18,300 --> 00:04:15,640
bright white the tiles were and just how

106
00:04:20,940 --> 00:04:18,310
pitch-black the clouds became underneath

107
00:04:23,070 --> 00:04:20,950
that that shadow on the ground and then

108
00:04:24,870 --> 00:04:23,080
certainly looking up at the Sun we had

109
00:04:26,159 --> 00:04:24,880
special solar glasses like everybody

110
00:04:27,719 --> 00:04:26,169
else and we had actually filters on our

111
00:04:31,740 --> 00:04:27,729
big cameras while taking pictures on the

112
00:04:34,620 --> 00:04:31,750
Sun and to see that you know the the

113
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:34,630
sliver you know the the Sun get covered

114
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:36,610
up by the moon and then grow back the

115
00:04:40,469 --> 00:04:38,050
other way because we actually had were

116
00:04:42,930 --> 00:04:40,479
able to look up and see the Sun on a

117
00:04:44,310 --> 00:04:42,940
couple of the passes with what I only

118
00:04:49,830 --> 00:04:44,320
had shadow on the ground through one of

119
00:04:52,140 --> 00:04:49,840
the passes hello my name is avery

120
00:04:54,300 --> 00:04:52,150
Robinson and my question for you is how

121
00:04:59,700 --> 00:04:54,310
many and which languages are used on the

122
00:05:01,860 --> 00:04:59,710
area well English is the official

123
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:01,870
language but working over in the

124
00:05:05,430 --> 00:05:03,130
Columbus module right now we have

125
00:05:08,879 --> 00:05:05,440
following misfolding a European

126
00:05:12,030 --> 00:05:08,889
astronaut he's Italian and so he speaks

127
00:05:14,100 --> 00:05:12,040
Italian when he when he likes but

128
00:05:15,840 --> 00:05:14,110
typically English to us over on the

129
00:05:17,580 --> 00:05:15,850
Russian segment we've got two cosmonauts

130
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:17,590
their primary language is Russian but

131
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:19,450
they know English and so we can talk

132
00:05:23,730 --> 00:05:22,090
English here but all of us came up on

133
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:23,740
the Russian Soyuz spacecraft so all of

134
00:05:29,310 --> 00:05:26,610
us speak Russian as well so it's funny

135
00:05:31,230 --> 00:05:29,320
especially as we try and you know

136
00:05:32,940 --> 00:05:31,240
practice each other's language you'll

137
00:05:34,290 --> 00:05:32,950
have the the Russian cosmonauts

138
00:05:35,610 --> 00:05:34,300
that's in English and they'll be trying

139
00:05:40,469 --> 00:05:35,620
to respond back to them and Russian just

140
00:05:42,900 --> 00:05:40,479
so you keep our skills up hi my name is

141
00:05:49,860 --> 00:05:42,910
Grace ray and my question is what is the

142
00:05:51,810 --> 00:05:49,870
mission of your team we've got a lot of

143
00:05:54,659 --> 00:05:51,820
things but first and foremost is this

144
00:05:57,960 --> 00:05:54,669
huge orbiting laboratory where you can

145
00:06:01,020 --> 00:05:57,970
only do things in you know zero-g or say

146
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:01,030
microgravity is execute the science

147
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:02,770
that's the whole whole reason it's here

148
00:06:06,330 --> 00:06:04,690
part of the science is science

149
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:06,340
experiments that are sent up that we put

150
00:06:11,090 --> 00:06:09,090
into laboratory

151
00:06:13,250 --> 00:06:11,100
go ahead and take a look at Paul the

152
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:13,260
science is us we're looking at the human

153
00:06:19,310 --> 00:06:16,050
bodies and how they respond to nutrition

154
00:06:21,110 --> 00:06:19,320
and food and radiation sleep all these

155
00:06:23,300 --> 00:06:21,120
different types of things so the one we

156
00:06:26,060 --> 00:06:23,310
want to go somewhere other than just

157
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:26,070
earth and beyond low-earth orbit we know

158
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:27,690
how the human body might respond or how

159
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:29,810
we can protect it when we go out

160
00:06:34,580 --> 00:06:31,770
long-duration missions like I showed you

161
00:06:37,580 --> 00:06:34,590
with a better Lion spacecraft so we've

162
00:06:38,659 --> 00:06:37,590
got all kinds of science going on but we

163
00:06:41,060 --> 00:06:38,669
also have this lab that has to be

164
00:06:43,129 --> 00:06:41,070
maintained so we're here to go ahead and

165
00:06:45,620 --> 00:06:43,139
fix it repair it keep it up so it can be

166
00:06:53,420 --> 00:06:45,630
here long beyond what we thought it was

167
00:06:55,370 --> 00:06:53,430
going to be the last until hello my name

168
00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:55,380
is Bryant nawicki and my question is

169
00:07:03,650 --> 00:06:57,450
what is the protocol if you encounter

170
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:03,660
unnatural things in space alright I'm

171
00:07:09,020 --> 00:07:05,970
not sure what you mean by a natural but

172
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:09,030
if it's something that is not normal

173
00:07:12,260 --> 00:07:10,530
inside the space station that be

174
00:07:14,270 --> 00:07:12,270
something that because I think is

175
00:07:15,620 --> 00:07:14,280
something that we didn't plan on being

176
00:07:17,029 --> 00:07:15,630
here that's something that because we

177
00:07:18,050 --> 00:07:17,039
have to clean the station or someone's

178
00:07:19,610 --> 00:07:18,060
gotten dirty that something starts to

179
00:07:22,219 --> 00:07:19,620
grow with the bacteria or fungus or

180
00:07:24,350 --> 00:07:22,229
something like that so we don't have

181
00:07:27,589 --> 00:07:24,360
that happen because we clean the station

182
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:27,599
every all the time and so we'd like to

183
00:07:30,830 --> 00:07:29,010
make sure that this is clean it's an

184
00:07:32,180 --> 00:07:30,840
environment because everywhere the thing

185
00:07:33,830 --> 00:07:32,190
here is what we're breathing and there's

186
00:07:35,690 --> 00:07:33,840
no you know fresh air or fresh breeze

187
00:07:37,790 --> 00:07:35,700
can't open a window to go ahead and have

188
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:37,800
a fresh air from there now I'd be

189
00:07:40,790 --> 00:07:39,090
talking about stuff outside the space

190
00:07:43,070 --> 00:07:40,800
station like maybe you know

191
00:07:45,260 --> 00:07:43,080
extraterrestrials well that is not

192
00:07:48,020 --> 00:07:45,270
something that we have planned because

193
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:48,030
that's something I haven't seen but I'm

194
00:07:51,290 --> 00:07:49,650
sure that you know Mission Control has

195
00:07:52,339 --> 00:07:51,300
probably thought about that and they

196
00:07:54,589 --> 00:07:52,349
might have something in their playbook

197
00:07:56,270 --> 00:07:54,599
but as far as we know if somebody comes

198
00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:56,280
knocking on the door we'll talk to

199
00:08:02,650 --> 00:07:57,690
Mission Control and get their opinion

200
00:08:08,180 --> 00:08:05,990
hello my name is Cameron 3 and my

201
00:08:10,279 --> 00:08:08,190
question is how has plant growth and

202
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:10,289
space been a challenge and what ideas

203
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:19,850
the question was how's it been adapting

204
00:08:25,940 --> 00:08:24,450
to gravity it's pretty amazing that you

205
00:08:27,740 --> 00:08:25,950
know it's the first time you've been in

206
00:08:30,230 --> 00:08:27,750
this situation yeah all of you have have

207
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:30,240
been on a roller coaster or in a car

208
00:08:33,230 --> 00:08:31,530
that's going faster you go over a bump

209
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:33,240
and you kind of float up and your body

210
00:08:37,940 --> 00:08:36,330
just you know feels loose and you know

211
00:08:40,130 --> 00:08:37,950
it's kind most of times folks will

212
00:08:41,810 --> 00:08:40,140
giggle and laugh it's the same joyful

213
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:41,820
feeling up here in CEO gravity because

214
00:08:45,410 --> 00:08:43,530
you can do things you can't normally do

215
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:45,420
on earth nothing you can do only

216
00:08:48,650 --> 00:08:46,530
underwater when you're holding your

217
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:48,660
breath but to be able to just flip

218
00:08:54,530 --> 00:08:53,010
around and change your orientation it's

219
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:54,540
really it's it's a fun thing and it's

220
00:08:59,780 --> 00:08:57,210
amazing how quickly your body adapts to

221
00:09:01,580 --> 00:08:59,790
zero gravity and thinking like it and so

222
00:09:03,950 --> 00:09:01,590
if I want to move somewhere I have to do

223
00:09:05,690 --> 00:09:03,960
just my finger over and just push and I

224
00:09:08,060 --> 00:09:05,700
start moving if I don't like what I see

225
00:09:09,830 --> 00:09:08,070
I just reach up and push and come back

226
00:09:12,410 --> 00:09:09,840
the other direction you got to push on

227
00:09:16,010 --> 00:09:12,420
solid stuff now like those wires so it's

228
00:09:17,750 --> 00:09:16,020
it's really only about two days or so I

229
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:17,760
think to even someone who's me it's the

230
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:19,410
first time coming here that takes them

231
00:09:21,770 --> 00:09:21,090
to adapt and to be able to move around

232
00:09:24,290 --> 00:09:21,780
pretty easily

233
00:09:25,670 --> 00:09:24,300
then it gets exciting and you feel

234
00:09:31,450 --> 00:09:25,680
adventurous and then he I worry about

235
00:09:36,020 --> 00:09:34,310
hi my name is Catherine duxford and my

236
00:09:42,500 --> 00:09:36,030
question is what was the worst part of

237
00:09:44,090 --> 00:09:42,510
your training the worst part of my

238
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:44,100
training and I think you have a picture

239
00:09:48,770 --> 00:09:47,130
of this one two shows my my amazing wife

240
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:48,780
Rebecca and my son Wyatt my daughter

241
00:09:53,060 --> 00:09:51,330
Abigail and my daughter seven my son

242
00:09:57,530 --> 00:09:53,070
Wyatt's 11 he's got he just started

243
00:09:58,910 --> 00:09:57,540
middle school last month and for another

244
00:10:02,300 --> 00:09:58,920
two years leading up to my flight I

245
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:02,310
spent almost a year of that in Russia

246
00:10:06,170 --> 00:10:04,290
training for the flight for the Russian

247
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:06,180
segment for the Soyuz spacecraft I would

248
00:10:10,730 --> 00:10:07,890
come up from Earth and then return to

249
00:10:12,500 --> 00:10:10,740
Earth on and you know just like the men

250
00:10:13,940 --> 00:10:12,510
and women of our military know it's

251
00:10:15,290 --> 00:10:13,950
tough you're doing your job you're

252
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:15,300
serving your country whatever way that

253
00:10:20,060 --> 00:10:17,370
is but you're separated from your family

254
00:10:22,550 --> 00:10:20,070
and so for me that was the the toughest

255
00:10:24,950 --> 00:10:22,560
part is the astronaut training you know

256
00:10:27,020 --> 00:10:24,960
we got such good people training us that

257
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:27,030
they can they can make a you know I'm

258
00:10:30,570 --> 00:10:28,810
sure to train a monkey to fly

259
00:10:32,519 --> 00:10:30,580
and so you know you're gonna stick

260
00:10:33,630 --> 00:10:32,529
monkey like myself a pilot they were

261
00:10:35,070 --> 00:10:33,640
able to get me to the point where I'm

262
00:10:37,650 --> 00:10:35,080
gonna come up here and do the science

263
00:10:44,700 --> 00:10:37,660
and do the work so that part's the

264
00:10:46,170 --> 00:10:44,710
easier side of you missing the family do

265
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:46,180
you ever feel nostalgic about your life

266
00:10:53,130 --> 00:10:51,730
on earth I certainly do

267
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:53,140
there there are things in your

268
00:10:57,180 --> 00:10:54,970
misleading things you miss you know

269
00:10:59,450 --> 00:10:57,190
drinking you don't have ice cubes you

270
00:11:02,250 --> 00:10:59,460
could put in your drink when you're warm

271
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:02,260
certainly you know the smells you know

272
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:03,970
there's one smell throughout station you

273
00:11:08,579 --> 00:11:05,890
know and you have it the whole time but

274
00:11:11,220 --> 00:11:08,589
also you miss as a human being you know

275
00:11:12,630 --> 00:11:11,230
physical interaction you know my my son

276
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:12,640
and daughter you have great hugs and

277
00:11:16,950 --> 00:11:15,010
again I miss that I miss kissing kissing

278
00:11:18,930 --> 00:11:16,960
my wife because the three are the other

279
00:11:21,690 --> 00:11:18,940
five guys on station that just I'm sorry

280
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:21,700
it doesn't cut it so you appreciate

281
00:11:24,750 --> 00:11:23,410
their camaraderie as crewmates but

282
00:11:26,370 --> 00:11:24,760
that's the kind of stuff you can't get

283
00:11:27,930 --> 00:11:26,380
from them and that's certainly the stuff

284
00:11:30,630 --> 00:11:27,940
you sit there and you know we look

285
00:11:31,829 --> 00:11:30,640
forward to when the time would come time

286
00:11:33,510 --> 00:11:31,839
to come home that those are the things

287
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:33,520
that you will be looking forward to the

288
00:11:48,329 --> 00:11:45,010
most well I mentioned their science and

289
00:11:52,110 --> 00:11:48,339
so there's jobs that we can do all over

290
00:11:54,660 --> 00:11:52,120
space station everyday that's the

291
00:11:55,950 --> 00:11:54,670
science part of our jobs we have jobs

292
00:11:59,010 --> 00:11:55,960
where we go ahead and repair things

293
00:12:00,630 --> 00:11:59,020
right now Paulo's fixing a light that

294
00:12:02,490 --> 00:12:00,640
will take out on a camera and put on the

295
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:02,500
outside of space station on a spacewalk

296
00:12:08,070 --> 00:12:06,610
on the 10th of October Joe acaba and

297
00:12:09,750 --> 00:12:08,080
Mark VandeHei are down there in the

298
00:12:12,180 --> 00:12:09,760
airlock preparing our spacesuits for the

299
00:12:13,500 --> 00:12:12,190
spacewalk this Thursday and getting

300
00:12:16,230 --> 00:12:13,510
batteries charged and getting the suits

301
00:12:17,490 --> 00:12:16,240
ready we also have two and a half hours

302
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:17,500
every day well we need to get on our

303
00:12:22,530 --> 00:12:20,290
exercise bicycle exercise treadmill or

304
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:22,540
we're actually doing resistive exercise

305
00:12:25,680 --> 00:12:23,770
it's basically space equivalent of

306
00:12:27,540 --> 00:12:25,690
lifting weights to keep our bodies in

307
00:12:30,060 --> 00:12:27,550
shape so we don't lose our muscles so we

308
00:12:32,310 --> 00:12:30,070
don't lose our bone condensity

309
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:32,320
I mentioned cleaning is one of our tasks

310
00:12:37,020 --> 00:12:34,810
and then the other part is talking to

311
00:12:39,540 --> 00:12:37,030
you guys we've got this great orbital

312
00:12:40,890 --> 00:12:39,550
laboratory amazing you know National

313
00:12:42,810 --> 00:12:40,900
Laboratory that we have to do all the

314
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:42,820
sides we have people up here living

315
00:12:48,330 --> 00:12:45,130
continuously for 17 years and guess what

316
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:48,340
we need people beyond us to do this job

317
00:12:52,740 --> 00:12:50,650
and take us beyond space station that's

318
00:12:54,990 --> 00:12:52,750
you guys in school you guys studying

319
00:12:56,460 --> 00:12:55,000
looking at all these neat you know

320
00:12:58,080 --> 00:12:56,470
things in stem that allow you to figure

321
00:12:59,730 --> 00:12:58,090
out how to make things or engineer

322
00:13:01,170 --> 00:12:59,740
things or build things or create things

323
00:13:03,450 --> 00:13:01,180
or think of things that have never been

324
00:13:04,890 --> 00:13:03,460
made that's you guys and then you guys

325
00:13:10,560 --> 00:13:04,900
are gonna be the astronauts to take us

326
00:13:11,850 --> 00:13:10,570
over to Mars or beyond hello again my

327
00:13:17,510 --> 00:13:11,860
next question is what are the

328
00:13:22,410 --> 00:13:21,000
well certainly we've touched on it a

329
00:13:24,260 --> 00:13:22,420
little bit with guillain you miss your

330
00:13:26,330 --> 00:13:24,270
family you miss your some of the

331
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:26,340
physical interaction that you have with

332
00:13:31,560 --> 00:13:29,890
people yeah I want to see you really get

333
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:31,570
lonely because you got crewmates up here

334
00:13:36,300 --> 00:13:33,850
and you're able to talk with them so you

335
00:13:38,730 --> 00:13:36,310
have human to human contact we also have

336
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:38,740
really great technologies allow us to go

337
00:13:42,810 --> 00:13:40,210
to our computers er Nate Internet

338
00:13:44,430 --> 00:13:42,820
Protocol phone and call down and talk to

339
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:44,440
anybody you want all over the world and

340
00:13:48,870 --> 00:13:45,730
you know anytime we have satellite

341
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:48,880
coverage that is a huge huge thing that

342
00:13:52,410 --> 00:13:50,530
it may allows us to be much more

343
00:13:55,380 --> 00:13:52,420
connected to the earth than the space

344
00:13:56,850 --> 00:13:55,390
Flyers had you know even you know 78

345
00:13:58,290 --> 00:13:56,860
years ago and certainly before that we

346
00:14:00,840 --> 00:13:58,300
could only talk to people on the radio

347
00:14:03,930 --> 00:14:00,850
so that really helps we've got email

348
00:14:06,570 --> 00:14:03,940
we've gotten you know TV that's sent up

349
00:14:09,390 --> 00:14:06,580
we've got other things up to that allow

350
00:14:12,690 --> 00:14:09,400
us to try and keep somewhat of a normal

351
00:14:15,330 --> 00:14:12,700
or earth-based day or psychiatric

352
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:15,340
condition available but we also have

353
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:17,170
great you know doctors and we got

354
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:19,690
psychiatrists and psychologists that are

355
00:14:24,570 --> 00:14:21,850
assigned to us that help us prepare for

356
00:14:27,180 --> 00:14:24,580
the flight they help us you know talk to

357
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:27,190
us every week to make sure that hey

358
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:28,810
what's going on how can we help you know

359
00:14:31,950 --> 00:14:30,490
and so we've got people that are the

360
00:14:35,490 --> 00:14:31,960
kinds of people that are helping us out

361
00:14:37,350 --> 00:14:35,500
so we don't end up having issues and if

362
00:14:39,210 --> 00:14:37,360
I dish you comes up we're able to fix it

363
00:14:40,530 --> 00:14:39,220
they also take care of our families so

364
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:40,540
it really

365
00:14:45,260 --> 00:14:43,810
a good program we have is supports the

366
00:14:48,540 --> 00:14:45,270
crew members up there so we do not have

367
00:14:50,250 --> 00:14:48,550
psychiatric effects the the biggest

368
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:50,260
effect is once you get into this

369
00:14:54,690 --> 00:14:52,090
environment - the first time is being

370
00:14:56,700 --> 00:14:54,700
able to absorb it and then after that

371
00:14:57,060 --> 00:14:56,710
you absorb it and move around and all

372
00:14:58,440 --> 00:14:57,070
that

373
00:15:00,900 --> 00:14:58,450
it's then trying to be able to take this

374
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:00,910
amazing experience and translate it into

375
00:15:05,340 --> 00:15:02,890
words to share it with you guys

376
00:15:07,230 --> 00:15:05,350

00:15:09,450 --> 00:15:07,240
507 human beings that have ever been

378
00:15:12,060 --> 00:15:09,460
able to get into space and hopefully

379
00:15:15,030 --> 00:15:12,070
