know hardware and all the technology

108
00:04:26,710 --> 00:04:25,040
very well and i believe that we're going

109
00:04:31,110 --> 00:04:26,720

and please wait for the mic and we'll

131
00:05:21,830 --> 00:05:20,469
hi robert pearlman with collectspace.com

132
00:05:23,510 --> 00:05:21,840
for scott

133
00:05:25,749 --> 00:05:23,520
i think it may have slipped past your

134
00:05:28,950 --> 00:05:25,759
expedition but can you talk a little bit

135
00:05:31,270 --> 00:05:28,960
about um potentially the first crew

136
00:05:34,790 --> 00:05:31,280
dragon unmanned test arriving how much

137
00:05:38,230 --> 00:05:34,800
preparation you've done for it as a crew

138
00:05:40,469 --> 00:05:38,240
and what that preparation consisted of

139
00:05:41,909 --> 00:05:40,479
uh well we we didn't really prepare uh

140
00:05:44,070 --> 00:05:41,919
too much for it we

141
00:05:45,990 --> 00:05:44,080
you know it's on the schedule to to

142
00:05:47,990 --> 00:05:46,000
happen and if it started looking like it

143
00:05:50,150 --> 00:05:48,000
was a realistic target then we we would

144
00:05:51,430 --> 00:05:50,160
be training uh quite a bit more uh the

145
00:05:53,990 --> 00:05:51,440
procedures that we would use would

146
00:05:56,790 --> 00:05:54,000
pretty much be standard procedures uh

147
00:05:58,790 --> 00:05:56,800
for any visiting vehicle uh or any

148
00:05:59,830 --> 00:05:58,800
transport vehicle to uh to arrive on

149
00:06:01,189 --> 00:05:59,840
station

150
00:06:03,430 --> 00:06:01,199
so the amount of training that we would

151
00:06:05,510 --> 00:06:03,440
do on station real time just prior to

152
00:06:07,029 --> 00:06:05,520
the arrival would probably ramp up and

153
00:06:09,189 --> 00:06:07,039
would probably take uh take a couple of

154
00:06:10,870 --> 00:06:09,199
weeks of training on on getting more

155
00:06:12,070 --> 00:06:10,880
familiar with the systems more familiar

156
00:06:14,950 --> 00:06:12,080
with the processes and some of the

157
00:06:16,629 --> 00:06:14,960
limitations uh on that but we've had a

158
00:06:18,230 --> 00:06:16,639
little bit of overview on dragon you

159
00:06:20,629 --> 00:06:18,240
know i used to work commercial crew you

160
00:06:22,550 --> 00:06:20,639
know several years ago so we all have as

161
00:06:24,550 --> 00:06:22,560
a crew we have a general knowledge of of

162
00:06:27,350 --> 00:06:24,560
the systems and and and how it should

163
00:06:28,390 --> 00:06:27,360
work uh for that but but other than that

164
00:06:31,110 --> 00:06:28,400
um

165
00:06:33,830 --> 00:06:31,120
we we don't see it coming into our our

166
00:06:35,749 --> 00:06:33,840
our schedule uh while we're there

167
00:06:37,830 --> 00:06:35,759
but but if it does start looking like it

168
00:06:40,550 --> 00:06:37,840
will then then we'll ramp up and start

169
00:06:43,270 --> 00:06:40,560
training more intensely

170
00:06:45,110 --> 00:06:43,280
great question and for those of you who

171
00:06:46,870 --> 00:06:45,120
don't know we are looking forward to

172
00:06:49,350 --> 00:06:46,880
commercial crew flights where our

173
00:06:51,430 --> 00:06:49,360
contract partners boeing and spacex are

174
00:06:53,350 --> 00:06:51,440
building vehicles to launch

175
00:06:55,350 --> 00:06:53,360
astronauts from america to the space

176
00:06:57,270 --> 00:06:55,360
station so we're very excited for that

177
00:06:59,189 --> 00:06:57,280
all right another question

178
00:07:00,710 --> 00:06:59,199

00:07:27,350 --> 00:07:25,039
and started looking at all all you do

190
00:07:29,350 --> 00:07:27,360
and it's uh it's amazing and and i would

191
00:07:30,790 --> 00:07:29,360
like to get more more involved in it

192
00:07:32,309 --> 00:07:30,800
when i get back from my mission or maybe

193
00:07:34,710 --> 00:07:32,319
during the mission if we can send up

194
00:07:37,110 --> 00:07:34,720
some uh some documents for that

195
00:07:39,670 --> 00:07:37,120
uh for that so thank you for uh for

196
00:07:41,670 --> 00:07:39,680
coming out and uh and showing us all

197
00:07:43,110 --> 00:07:41,680
what you do and i see the bus out there

198
00:07:46,469 --> 00:07:43,120
and i gotta go take a look at that that

199
00:07:49,189 --> 00:07:47,830
awesome all right we have another

200
00:07:50,710 --> 00:07:49,199
question over here

201
00:07:53,029 --> 00:07:50,720
hey my name is dave renee i'm with the

202
00:07:56,629 --> 00:07:53,039
innovation spark and so we're promoting

203
00:07:58,550 --> 00:07:56,639
no kids interest in steam education so

204
00:08:00,150 --> 00:07:58,560
seeing how long how long it took you to

205
00:08:02,309 --> 00:08:00,160
prepare for this mission what advice

206
00:08:03,830 --> 00:08:02,319
would you have for the young

207
00:08:05,029 --> 00:08:03,840
kids coming up

208
00:08:07,430 --> 00:08:05,039
and what would they need to do to

209
00:08:09,830 --> 00:08:07,440
prepare to maybe participate

210
00:08:11,430 --> 00:08:09,840
in a national mission in the future

211
00:08:15,430 --> 00:08:11,440
i think the the biggest thing that they

212
00:08:17,510 --> 00:08:15,440
can do is to get a good education

213
00:08:19,589 --> 00:08:17,520
uh really focus hard on on making that

214
00:08:22,309 --> 00:08:19,599
happen if they like you know building

215
00:08:24,629 --> 00:08:22,319
systems fixing systems wondering how

216
00:08:26,390 --> 00:08:24,639
systems work that's uh that's a benefit

217
00:08:28,230 --> 00:08:26,400
that will carry their their interest

218
00:08:29,670 --> 00:08:28,240
through all of the education that that

219
00:08:30,390 --> 00:08:29,680
they should have

220
00:08:32,870 --> 00:08:30,400
but

221
00:08:34,550 --> 00:08:32,880
they should concentrate on education and

222
00:08:37,350 --> 00:08:34,560
if they find a point of something that

223
00:08:39,670 --> 00:08:37,360
they love whether it's in technology or

224
00:08:41,509 --> 00:08:39,680
art or music or whatever it doesn't

225
00:08:43,750 --> 00:08:41,519
matter we have room for all of them in

226
00:08:44,790 --> 00:08:43,760
this in in the human space flight

227
00:08:46,470 --> 00:08:44,800
community

228
00:08:48,150 --> 00:08:46,480
it takes all types we're probably one of

229
00:08:49,590 --> 00:08:48,160
the most diverse groups

230
00:08:51,350 --> 00:08:49,600
that you'd ever find in any any

231
00:08:54,150 --> 00:08:51,360
corporation

232
00:08:55,509 --> 00:08:54,160
out there the mission is incredible and

233
00:08:57,350 --> 00:08:55,519
and if you have a love for space it

234
00:08:59,190 --> 00:08:57,360
doesn't matter what you do

235
00:09:02,150 --> 00:08:59,200
do it well do whatever it is you you

236
00:09:04,790 --> 00:09:02,160
like well and then and then bring it to

237
00:09:07,110 --> 00:09:04,800
the space community because we want it

238
00:09:09,030 --> 00:09:07,120
thanks do nemo or anton do you want to

239
00:09:11,430 --> 00:09:09,040
add anything about education or

240
00:09:13,990 --> 00:09:11,440
inspiring the next generation

241
00:09:16,790 --> 00:09:14,000
actually when i was a kid

242
00:09:19,269 --> 00:09:16,800
i was never thinking about

243
00:09:21,110 --> 00:09:19,279
you know becoming an astronaut but for

244
00:09:23,110 --> 00:09:21,120
some reason you know

245
00:09:23,829 --> 00:09:23,120
i i am here

246
00:09:24,710 --> 00:09:23,839
so

247
00:09:27,030 --> 00:09:24,720
i think

248
00:09:31,430 --> 00:09:29,430
that's very interesting but uh

249
00:09:32,550 --> 00:09:31,440
i'm thinking about my teachers my

250
00:09:35,350 --> 00:09:32,560
parents

251
00:09:38,389 --> 00:09:35,360
they directed me to the right

252
00:09:39,829 --> 00:09:38,399
direction whenever i think about i'm

253
00:09:41,910 --> 00:09:39,839
you know studying

254
00:09:44,150 --> 00:09:41,920
something else they you know just

255
00:10:04,470 --> 00:09:44,160
directed me to the right direction then

256
00:10:09,590 --> 00:10:07,110
i should say that my

257
00:10:11,829 --> 00:10:09,600
dream to become a cosmonaut and go into

258
00:10:15,110 --> 00:10:11,839
space has been my childhood dream and i

259
00:10:16,389 --> 00:10:15,120
was advancing the dream step by step and

260
00:10:18,710 --> 00:10:16,399
the

261
00:10:20,550 --> 00:10:18,720
makerspace representative mentioned i

262
00:10:22,630 --> 00:10:20,560
was working hard to

263
00:10:42,790 --> 00:10:22,640
advance my education to achieve their

264
00:10:47,350 --> 00:10:44,790
and for our kids all over the world i

265
00:10:49,670 --> 00:10:47,360
should say that using my example it is

266
00:10:52,310 --> 00:10:49,680
not that difficult to become a cosmonaut

267
00:10:54,630 --> 00:10:52,320
or an astronaut you need to study hard

268
00:10:57,590 --> 00:10:54,640
you need to listen to

269
00:11:00,389 --> 00:10:57,600
adults follow directions no drinking

270
00:11:02,389 --> 00:11:00,399
no smoking no drugs lots of sports and

271
00:11:04,230 --> 00:11:02,399
you can pursue your dream

272
00:11:06,310 --> 00:11:04,240
great thank you all right we have

273
00:11:10,230 --> 00:11:06,320
another question over here

274
00:11:12,470 --> 00:11:10,240
i'm ethan saudia with pcs4me and um my

275
00:11:14,710 --> 00:11:12,480
question is well i've noticed that your

276
00:11:16,470 --> 00:11:14,720
twitter handle is astro maker and i'm

277
00:11:18,550 --> 00:11:16,480
wondering what kind of things you like

278
00:11:21,750 --> 00:11:18,560
making and if you will be involved with

279
00:11:25,110 --> 00:11:21,760
the raspberry pi astro pi program aboard

280
00:11:26,010 --> 00:11:25,120
the international space station

281
00:11:27,590 --> 00:11:26,020
am i part of that

282
00:11:29,750 --> 00:11:27,600
[Laughter]

283
00:11:32,310 --> 00:11:29,760
i have to ask the boss here i believe

284
00:11:33,750 --> 00:11:32,320
it's a european space agency experiment

285
00:11:36,310 --> 00:11:33,760
i don't know if you guys have more info

286
00:11:37,829 --> 00:11:36,320
on it but you may you never know yeah

287
00:11:39,990 --> 00:11:37,839
yeah we'll see when we get there i

288
00:11:42,790 --> 00:11:40,000
haven't been been briefed on it or uh

289
00:11:45,670 --> 00:11:42,800
i've been part of it uh yet um so my my

290
00:11:47,750 --> 00:11:45,680
call sign is uh astromaker on on twitter

291
00:11:49,990 --> 00:11:47,760
uh and that just that comes from uh when

292
00:11:53,509 --> 00:11:50,000
i was a pilot in the navy

293
00:11:56,470 --> 00:11:53,519
that um uh my co my colleagues called me

294
00:11:59,350 --> 00:11:56,480
maker and um it did not have to do

295
00:12:01,750 --> 00:11:59,360
because i made things it had other other

296
00:12:04,949 --> 00:12:01,760
reasons and then um

297
00:12:07,910 --> 00:12:04,959
which i won't talk about today

298
00:12:10,230 --> 00:12:07,920
but uh but it's uh it's

299
00:12:11,829 --> 00:12:10,240
more than a great coincidence i do like

300
00:12:14,870 --> 00:12:11,839
making things i do like fixing things i

301
00:12:17,110 --> 00:12:14,880
got a lot of tools at home and i have a

302
00:12:18,790 --> 00:12:17,120
small garage but it gets everything done

303
00:12:21,269 --> 00:12:18,800
and when the dishwasher breaks i pull it

304
00:12:24,230 --> 00:12:21,279
out and i'll put a pump in it or take it

305
00:12:25,990 --> 00:12:24,240
apart the the clothes washer breaks i'll

306
00:12:27,670 --> 00:12:26,000
take it out put a new motor in it and if

307
00:12:29,750 --> 00:12:27,680
the car breaks i'll pull that out take

308
00:12:32,310 --> 00:12:29,760
the motor out put another one in it and

309
00:12:34,150 --> 00:12:32,320
whatever whatever it needs to happen and

310
00:12:35,910 --> 00:12:34,160
uh and occasionally i'll i'll get some

311
00:12:38,470 --> 00:12:35,920
tools out and you know make some nice

312
00:12:40,629 --> 00:12:38,480
little ornament things or or some

313
00:12:42,310 --> 00:12:40,639
plaques for my friends that that i've

314
00:12:43,990 --> 00:12:42,320
done in the past so

315
00:12:46,150 --> 00:12:44,000
if it's a system i like getting into it

316
00:12:47,430 --> 00:12:46,160
and seeing how it works and i try to fix

317
00:12:49,110 --> 00:12:47,440
it

318
00:12:50,470 --> 00:12:49,120
not just because i'm cheap although i am

319
00:12:51,910 --> 00:12:50,480
cheap but

320
00:12:53,350 --> 00:12:51,920
but because it's cool you know going in

321
00:12:54,710 --> 00:12:53,360
and seeing how all the wires work and

322
00:12:56,870 --> 00:12:54,720
how all the all the mechanical

323
00:12:58,470 --> 00:12:56,880
interfaces work and uh and just getting

324
00:12:59,910 --> 00:12:58,480
it working and it's a challenge for me

325
00:13:02,150 --> 00:12:59,920
being a little bit older and working all

326
00:13:03,509 --> 00:13:02,160
the electronics into these systems and

327
00:13:05,509 --> 00:13:03,519
and doing the troubleshooting so i'm

328
00:13:07,910 --> 00:13:05,519
starting to gear up my toolbox when it

329
00:13:09,350 --> 00:13:07,920
you know for electronic troubleshooting

330
00:13:11,030 --> 00:13:09,360
as well i'm trying to get my kids

331
00:13:12,310 --> 00:13:11,040
interested in it as well if you guys

332
00:13:13,670 --> 00:13:12,320
have any ideas how to do that i'd

333
00:13:15,110 --> 00:13:13,680
appreciate it

334
00:13:16,790 --> 00:13:15,120
but that's pretty much it

335
00:13:18,310 --> 00:13:16,800
and that will of course be a big job for

336
00:13:20,150 --> 00:13:18,320
you and the whole crew on the space

337
00:13:21,430 --> 00:13:20,160
station because there's a lot of

338
00:13:23,030 --> 00:13:21,440
maintenance involved on the space

339
00:13:24,870 --> 00:13:23,040
station and i'm sure you'll have plenty

340
00:13:26,949 --> 00:13:24,880
of things to fix up there the job won't

341
00:13:28,790 --> 00:13:26,959
stop once you get a space

342
00:13:31,110 --> 00:13:28,800
all right next question

343
00:13:32,790 --> 00:13:31,120

with of course russian cosmonauts and

368
00:14:41,590 --> 00:14:38,480
american astronauts and the european

369
00:14:45,030 --> 00:14:41,600
italian astronaut japanese you stayed

with other japanese astronauts in the

371
00:14:48,870 --> 00:14:47,600
previous mission so very international

372
00:14:51,030 --> 00:14:48,880
very uh

373
00:14:53,350 --> 00:14:51,040

and during the one and a half years of

379
00:15:32,470 --> 00:15:30,320
training our training consists of a lot

380
00:15:34,230 --> 00:15:32,480
of trips to different agencies for

381
00:15:36,470 --> 00:15:34,240
example roscosmos that means going to

382
00:15:38,069 --> 00:15:36,480
moscow houston here

383
00:15:57,829 --> 00:15:38,079
germany cologne

and we not only work together as a

385
00:16:04,389 --> 00:16:01,839
three-person crew we also

386

three of our families and

389
00:16:11,749 --> 00:16:09,440
we are hoping that by the time we get to

390
00:16:12,710 --> 00:16:11,759
space we're not going to experience any

391
00:16:15,030 --> 00:16:12,720
uh

392
00:16:17,030 --> 00:16:15,040
interrelationship or any interpersonal

393
00:16:18,550 --> 00:16:17,040
problems

394
00:16:19,829 --> 00:16:18,560

395
00:16:21,509 --> 00:16:19,839

396
00:16:23,350 --> 00:16:21,519
representation of that here with our

question my name is makoto mitsui from

405
00:16:41,430 --> 00:16:40,240
the yomir shimbun japanese newspaper uh

406
00:16:44,470 --> 00:16:41,440
this question

407
00:16:47,990 --> 00:16:44,480
goes to mr shkaplerov and

408
00:16:51,350 --> 00:16:48,000
mr tingle so this question is related to

409
00:16:55,350 --> 00:16:51,360
the previous one i would like to uh

410
00:16:59,110 --> 00:16:55,360
impression of mr kanai in detail so what

411
00:17:02,550 --> 00:16:59,120
is the uh mr khanna's excellent point as

412
00:17:04,710 --> 00:17:02,560
an astronaut and what is his role uh as

413
00:17:07,029 --> 00:17:04,720
a team in terms of

414
00:17:11,350 --> 00:17:07,039
keeping good relation

415
00:17:13,350 --> 00:17:12,470
nemo

416
00:17:14,309 --> 00:17:13,360
is

417
00:17:16,630 --> 00:17:14,319
first

418
00:17:17,590 --> 00:17:16,640
a great friend

419
00:17:20,230 --> 00:17:17,600
he's

420
00:17:21,990 --> 00:17:20,240
very trusty very reliable

421
00:17:23,350 --> 00:17:22,000
and i can count on him

422
00:17:27,350 --> 00:17:23,360
to

423
00:17:30,070 --> 00:17:27,360
don't know i need it he knows i need it

424
00:17:32,630 --> 00:17:30,080
and he he helps

425
00:17:35,590 --> 00:17:32,640
another great

426
00:17:36,789 --> 00:17:35,600
tribute to nemo is that he is incredibly

427
00:17:38,950 --> 00:17:36,799
smart

428
00:17:40,310 --> 00:17:38,960
when we're doing simulators together

429
00:17:41,590 --> 00:17:40,320
anton and i will be looking at the

430
00:17:43,909 --> 00:17:41,600
procedures

431
00:17:46,070 --> 00:17:43,919
and there's a choice to make left or

432
00:17:47,510 --> 00:17:46,080
right and we'll talk about it we'll talk

433
00:17:49,430 --> 00:17:47,520
about it and then we'll look at nemo and

434
00:17:58,310 --> 00:17:49,440
nemo goes right

435
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:06,950
um

436
00:18:13,510 --> 00:18:10,070
i believe that nemo is a young

437
00:18:25,909 --> 00:18:13,520
person and um he has a great future in

438
00:18:25,919 --> 00:18:29,190
party

439
00:18:32,470 --> 00:18:30,070
and

440
00:18:35,669 --> 00:18:32,480
the first time we met

441
00:18:37,430 --> 00:18:35,679
he spoke neither russian or english and

442
00:18:40,630 --> 00:18:37,440
several months later i saw him sitting

443
00:18:56,420 --> 00:18:40,640
at a desk and listening to instructors

444
00:18:56,430 --> 00:19:00,070
[Music]

445
00:19:03,909 --> 00:19:01,990
it emphasizes what kind of a

446
00:19:06,150 --> 00:19:03,919
hard-working person he is and if he's

447
00:19:07,909 --> 00:19:06,160
studying something you can be sure that

448
00:19:08,789 --> 00:19:07,919
he's going to study everything to the

449
00:19:11,350 --> 00:19:08,799
very

450
00:19:16,230 --> 00:19:11,360
last bolt and he studies the entire

451
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:25,990
the doctor

452
00:19:29,750 --> 00:19:28,310
and we're flying to space with the maker

453
00:19:32,230 --> 00:19:29,760
and we're going to have a medical doctor

454
00:19:34,950 --> 00:19:32,240
on board so within six months we can be

455
00:19:37,110 --> 00:19:34,960
confident that if something

456
00:19:39,110 --> 00:19:37,120
doesn't feel right and we need medical

457
00:19:40,630 --> 00:19:39,120
help the nemo will cure us and we will

458
00:19:43,029 --> 00:19:40,640
come back to earth

459
00:19:44,710 --> 00:19:43,039
fit and healthy

460
00:19:46,390 --> 00:19:44,720

dinners together so it's uh it's just a

502
00:21:09,029 --> 00:21:07,440
big extended family for us

503
00:21:11,029 --> 00:21:09,039
so about every three months we have a

504
00:21:11,830 --> 00:21:11,039
new crew launch to the space station and

505
00:21:13,510 --> 00:21:11,840
um

506
00:21:15,190 --> 00:21:13,520
and they launch in their soyuz three at

507
00:21:17,270 --> 00:21:15,200
a time and there are usually about six

508
00:21:19,029 --> 00:21:17,280
people on the space station at a time

509
00:21:21,350 --> 00:21:19,039
all right i think we have a question on

510
00:21:23,909 --> 00:21:21,360
the phone bridge just a reminder if you

511
00:21:25,750 --> 00:21:23,919

512
00:21:26,870 --> 00:21:25,760
and you can press star two to withdraw

513
00:21:28,710 --> 00:21:26,880
your question

514
00:21:33,510 --> 00:21:28,720
we have jill tulk with the randolph

515
00:21:37,750 --> 00:21:35,669
yes maker as you know this is your

516
00:21:40,390 --> 00:21:37,760
hometown newspaper but i have a question

517
00:21:43,110 --> 00:21:40,400
for you nemo and anton could you all

518
00:21:45,190 --> 00:21:43,120
talk about the importance of your

519
00:21:46,789 --> 00:21:45,200
individual hometown communities during

520
00:21:48,390 --> 00:21:46,799
your mission if

521
00:21:52,390 --> 00:21:48,400
the entire mission but especially on

522
00:21:57,029 --> 00:21:54,230
you want to go

523
00:22:01,110 --> 00:21:57,039
okay so the uh the hometown is so

524
00:22:02,710 --> 00:22:01,120
critical to i'm sure all of us

525
00:22:04,870 --> 00:22:02,720
the people there the relationships we

526
00:22:09,029 --> 00:22:04,880
had the experiences we had growing up

527
00:22:10,789 --> 00:22:09,039
whether it's with with family friends or

528
00:22:13,430 --> 00:22:10,799
academic

529
00:22:15,190 --> 00:22:13,440
it becomes part of you and you don't

530
00:22:17,669 --> 00:22:15,200
realize it for several years but you get

531
00:22:19,909 --> 00:22:17,679
uh you know 30 40 years down the road

532
00:22:21,750 --> 00:22:19,919
and you start to realize all of the

533
00:22:23,110 --> 00:22:21,760
little things that came together to make

534
00:22:26,590 --> 00:22:23,120
you who you are

535
00:22:29,510 --> 00:22:26,600
uh so when i launch on soyuz

536
00:22:32,870 --> 00:22:29,520
ms-07 on december 17th all of those

537
00:22:34,230 --> 00:22:32,880
folks back home are going to be with me

538
00:22:36,149 --> 00:22:34,240
awesome

539
00:22:39,590 --> 00:22:36,159
lima anything to add

540
00:22:40,549 --> 00:22:39,600
no my my hometown is tokyo but tokyo is

541
00:22:44,070 --> 00:22:40,559
too big

542
00:22:46,710 --> 00:22:44,080
to call myself it's my hometown

543
00:22:48,230 --> 00:22:46,720
but you know as a

544
00:22:51,430 --> 00:22:48,240
you know former

545
00:22:55,830 --> 00:22:51,440
navy officer i stationed

546
00:22:59,669 --> 00:22:55,840
many town cities in all over japan

547
00:23:01,669 --> 00:22:59,679
so i feel these you know the towns or

548
00:23:02,870 --> 00:23:01,679
people

549
00:23:05,669 --> 00:23:02,880
over there

550
00:23:07,590 --> 00:23:05,679
is kind of my you know

551
00:23:09,590 --> 00:23:07,600
not hometown but the

552
00:23:10,470 --> 00:23:09,600
close friends and

553
00:23:12,549 --> 00:23:10,480
you know

554
00:23:13,430 --> 00:23:12,559
across the family members

555
00:23:16,149 --> 00:23:13,440
uh

556
00:23:17,510 --> 00:23:16,159
i have that kind of feeling about

557
00:23:21,669 --> 00:23:17,520
the

558
00:23:23,350 --> 00:23:21,679
in tokyo are going to be very proud of

559
00:23:41,990 --> 00:23:23,360
you and watching you as well so it's

560
00:23:47,350 --> 00:23:44,149
my hometown where i was born is

561
00:23:49,510 --> 00:23:47,360
sevastopol and i believe that town

562
00:23:50,390 --> 00:23:49,520
gave me everything

563
00:23:54,710 --> 00:23:50,400
that

564
00:23:56,870 --> 00:23:54,720
contributed to who and what i am today

565
00:23:58,149 --> 00:23:56,880
awesome thank you all all right we're

566
00:24:00,149 --> 00:23:58,159
going to take a couple questions from

567
00:24:02,149 --> 00:24:00,159
social media now if you do have a

568
00:24:03,909 --> 00:24:02,159
question you can ask it

569
00:24:06,390 --> 00:24:03,919
on social media using

570
00:24:08,870 --> 00:24:06,400
ask nasa so we have haley here our

571
00:24:11,110 --> 00:24:08,880
social media specialist haley

572
00:24:13,830 --> 00:24:11,120
awesome so the first question comes from

573
00:24:15,909 --> 00:24:13,840
francisco on facebook he wants to know

574
00:24:17,990 --> 00:24:15,919
is english the most common language on

575
00:24:24,070 --> 00:24:18,000
the iss or is there a more common

576
00:24:29,909 --> 00:24:27,510
unfortunately japanese is not the most

577
00:24:32,710 --> 00:24:29,919
language in space station but

578
00:24:33,990 --> 00:24:32,720
we use both english and the

579
00:24:37,110 --> 00:24:34,000
russian language

580
00:24:40,220 --> 00:24:37,120
simultaneously or mixed up so sometimes

581
00:24:43,750 --> 00:24:40,230
we you know call it the roonglish

582
00:24:45,510 --> 00:24:43,760
[Laughter]

583
00:24:48,230 --> 00:24:45,520
and they do launch on a russian vehicle

584
00:24:49,990 --> 00:24:48,240
the soyuz so in that vehicle it's pretty

585
00:24:51,269 --> 00:24:50,000
much all russian right yeah so while

586
00:24:53,110 --> 00:24:51,279
you're launching all right great

587
00:24:56,390 --> 00:24:53,120
question you have another one so this is

588
00:24:58,549 --> 00:24:56,400
for um any of you or all three marissa

589
00:25:00,950 --> 00:24:58,559
is asking on behalf of her five-year-old

590
00:25:03,269 --> 00:25:00,960
son on facebook how do you exercise in

591
00:25:05,269 --> 00:25:03,279
space

592
00:25:07,590 --> 00:25:05,279
we have lots of equipment

593
00:25:09,269 --> 00:25:07,600
in space and it's actually very

594
00:25:10,789 --> 00:25:09,279
important to exercise

595
00:25:13,190 --> 00:25:10,799
one of the big things we see when we're

596
00:25:16,070 --> 00:25:13,200
in space is bone loss

597
00:25:18,950 --> 00:25:16,080
and we have found through active daily

598
00:25:21,110 --> 00:25:18,960
exercise that we can minimize that bone

599
00:25:22,549 --> 00:25:21,120
loss over the duration of the space

600
00:25:24,549 --> 00:25:22,559
flight

601
00:25:27,110 --> 00:25:24,559
and minimize the recovery uh when we

602
00:25:29,590 --> 00:25:27,120
return so we have a weight lifting

603
00:25:31,190 --> 00:25:29,600
machine called the a-red and i can't

604
00:25:33,269 --> 00:25:31,200
remember what that acronym stands for

605
00:25:35,750 --> 00:25:33,279
i'm sorry the advanced resistive

606
00:25:38,630 --> 00:25:35,760
exercise device excellent thank you she

607
00:25:40,870 --> 00:25:38,640
got me out of trouble again

608
00:25:42,630 --> 00:25:40,880
and and we use that to to lift weights

609
00:25:46,549 --> 00:25:42,640
we do a lot of squats we do a lot of you

610
00:25:48,950 --> 00:25:46,559
know presses we work our cores as much

611
00:25:50,950 --> 00:25:48,960
as we can and we're afforded a couple

612
00:25:52,630 --> 00:25:50,960
hours every day on the schedule to uh to

613
00:25:55,029 --> 00:25:52,640
have a good workout we also have

614
00:25:57,909 --> 00:25:55,039
cardiovascular a treadmill up there and

615
00:26:00,070 --> 00:25:57,919
a bicycle to uh to exercise with very

616
00:26:01,990 --> 00:26:00,080
important to exercise every single day

617
00:26:04,149 --> 00:26:02,000
in space

618
00:26:07,350 --> 00:26:04,159
all right another question so this one

619
00:26:10,230 --> 00:26:07,360
is specifically for naroshika kanai but

620
00:26:11,750 --> 00:26:10,240
uh for anyone really um is there any

621
00:26:13,269 --> 00:26:11,760
special japanese food you're bringing

622
00:26:14,630 --> 00:26:13,279
with you and for everyone is there any

623
00:26:15,990 --> 00:26:14,640
special food that reminds you of home

624
00:26:17,190 --> 00:26:16,000
you're bringing

625
00:26:19,990 --> 00:26:17,200
actually

626
00:26:22,149 --> 00:26:20,000
yeah jack's a japanese space agency

627
00:26:26,149 --> 00:26:22,159
provides

628
00:26:27,430 --> 00:26:26,159
many kinds of japanese space food so i i

629
00:26:30,070 --> 00:26:27,440
will bring

630
00:26:33,029 --> 00:26:30,080
all all kinds of japanese food and share

631
00:26:35,510 --> 00:26:33,039
with my crewmates

632
00:26:37,269 --> 00:26:35,520
are you guys bringing any special food

633
00:26:38,710 --> 00:26:37,279
i'm just going to try to steal nemo's

634
00:26:40,789 --> 00:26:38,720
food when he brings it on because it's

635
00:26:42,310 --> 00:26:40,799
always really good

636
00:26:55,990 --> 00:26:42,320
what about you anton

637
00:27:01,669 --> 00:26:59,669
it's true we have food items represented

638
00:27:05,269 --> 00:27:01,679
from uh different countries on board of

639
00:27:07,590 --> 00:27:05,279
the iss mostly it's russian uh nasa food

640
00:27:10,310 --> 00:27:07,600
items and also the rest of the food

641
00:27:12,310 --> 00:27:10,320
complement depends on uh who is um

642
00:27:17,430 --> 00:27:12,320
industry astronaut flying on board of

643
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:30,149
is

644
00:27:34,389 --> 00:27:32,389
separately for each crew member however

645
00:27:38,070 --> 00:27:34,399
we have a very good tradition of food

646
00:27:40,630 --> 00:27:38,080
sharing and we choose the items each of

647
00:27:43,190 --> 00:27:40,640
us prefers and

648
00:27:44,789 --> 00:27:43,200
that's the way we work on board

649
00:27:46,310 --> 00:27:44,799
great thank you

650
00:27:48,950 --> 00:27:46,320
i know one thing we haven't talked about

651
00:27:50,630 --> 00:27:48,960
yet of course is really the main job of

652
00:27:52,389 --> 00:27:50,640
you on the space station and that's

653
00:27:54,230 --> 00:27:52,399
doing science

654
00:27:55,830 --> 00:27:54,240
science to figure out how we're going to

655
00:27:57,990 --> 00:27:55,840
live longer in space so we can go

656
00:28:00,070 --> 00:27:58,000
further into space and also to help us

657
00:28:01,830 --> 00:28:00,080
on earth so i was wondering if each of

658
00:28:03,110 --> 00:28:01,840
you could talk a little bit about the

659
00:28:04,710 --> 00:28:03,120
science you'll be doing on the space

660
00:28:06,230 --> 00:28:04,720
station and maybe an experiment you're

661
00:28:07,669 --> 00:28:06,240
looking forward to

662
00:28:09,350 --> 00:28:07,679
sure

663
00:28:11,350 --> 00:28:09,360
well at any given time there's on the

664
00:28:13,990 --> 00:28:11,360
order of 250

665
00:28:16,549 --> 00:28:14,000
experiments that are that are happening

666
00:28:18,070 --> 00:28:16,559
onboard space station it's a very busy

667
00:28:20,149 --> 00:28:18,080
laboratory

668
00:28:23,110 --> 00:28:20,159
some of the specific human research that

669
00:28:25,590 --> 00:28:23,120
i'll be working on includes

670
00:28:26,710 --> 00:28:25,600
a look at the spine you know when we get

671
00:28:29,750 --> 00:28:26,720
in orbit

672
00:28:31,990 --> 00:28:29,760
into space our spines extend a little

673
00:28:33,590 --> 00:28:32,000
bit and so we're trying to see what the

674
00:28:34,950 --> 00:28:33,600
the big impacts are on that we've

675
00:28:37,750 --> 00:28:34,960
they've got a big study going that i'll

676
00:28:40,070 --> 00:28:37,760
be participating in on on that um as

677
00:28:42,789 --> 00:28:40,080
well uh we also take a lot of blood a

678
00:28:46,149 --> 00:28:42,799
lot of urine a lot of fluids to uh to

679
00:28:47,909 --> 00:28:46,159
try to see what's going on um with uh

680
00:28:50,230 --> 00:28:47,919
within uh you know humans when they get

681
00:28:52,789 --> 00:28:50,240
into space uh so that's a big part of

682
00:28:55,510 --> 00:28:52,799
the study as well as far as some of the

683
00:28:58,230 --> 00:28:55,520
physical science um we'll be looking at

684
00:29:01,190 --> 00:28:58,240
things like combustion and fluids and

685
00:29:03,190 --> 00:29:01,200
some other robotics things going on with

686
00:29:04,549 --> 00:29:03,200
through spheres of that program i'm

687
00:29:06,789 --> 00:29:04,559
actually fairly excited to see the

688
00:29:08,549 --> 00:29:06,799
spheres work and that'll be part of our

689
00:29:10,389 --> 00:29:08,559
also part of our educational outreach

690
00:29:12,789 --> 00:29:10,399
program but watching those things fly

691
00:29:14,710 --> 00:29:12,799
around station is pretty cool

692
00:29:18,789 --> 00:29:14,720
spheres are robots right little flying

693
00:29:21,269 --> 00:29:18,799
robots all right thank you nemo

694
00:29:23,590 --> 00:29:21,279
yes i'm interested in the

695
00:29:24,950 --> 00:29:23,600
small satellite deployment

696
00:29:27,430 --> 00:29:24,960
it's been

697
00:29:28,950 --> 00:29:27,440
i think five years since the first small

698
00:29:32,710 --> 00:29:28,960
satellite

699
00:29:34,149 --> 00:29:32,720
deployed from japanese mojo since then i

700
00:29:36,070 --> 00:29:34,159
overheard

701
00:29:38,070 --> 00:29:36,080
almost 200

702
00:29:40,389 --> 00:29:38,080
satellites are deployed from space

703
00:29:42,710 --> 00:29:40,399
station so i wish i

704
00:29:45,430 --> 00:29:42,720
i am going to have a chance to deploy

705
00:29:47,590 --> 00:29:45,440
this kind of a

706
00:29:49,269 --> 00:29:47,600
small satellite from a japanese

707
00:29:51,830 --> 00:29:49,279
experimental module

708
00:30:09,510 --> 00:29:51,840
very cool thank you antoine what's the

709
00:30:14,070 --> 00:30:11,590
all the experiments that we perform on

710
00:30:17,190 --> 00:30:14,080
board of the iss can be divided into

711
00:30:19,830 --> 00:30:17,200
different categories we study our earth

712
00:30:34,830 --> 00:30:19,840
we study ourselves to see how human body

713
00:30:39,510 --> 00:30:37,269
um also the experiments are very useful

714
00:30:42,470 --> 00:30:39,520
i would say our favorite experiments are

715
00:30:44,070 --> 00:30:42,480
of the type where you can touch the

716
00:30:46,310 --> 00:30:44,080
experiment items

717
00:30:48,870 --> 00:30:46,320
you are inventing something new and you

718
00:30:58,149 --> 00:30:48,880
can see uh things grow

719
00:31:01,750 --> 00:30:59,909
unfortunately there are some experiments

720
00:31:03,669 --> 00:31:01,760
that are boring you just have to turn on

721
00:31:05,750 --> 00:31:03,679
the device and then turn the device off

722
00:31:07,350 --> 00:31:05,760
after some time but somebody has to do

723
00:31:08,950 --> 00:31:07,360
it

724
00:31:10,389 --> 00:31:08,960
nice thank you

725
00:31:11,990 --> 00:31:10,399
that was great do we have any more

726
00:31:14,389 --> 00:31:12,000
questions in the room just raise your

727
00:31:22,789 --> 00:31:14,399
hand if you have a question

728
00:31:26,789 --> 00:31:24,950
could i just ask each of you why you

729
00:31:27,909 --> 00:31:26,799
were inspired to commit your life to

730
00:31:29,430 --> 00:31:27,919
space

731
00:31:31,269 --> 00:31:29,440
good question

732
00:31:34,230 --> 00:31:31,279
all right

733
00:31:35,590 --> 00:31:34,240
well that's uh that's a pretty big

734
00:31:37,590 --> 00:31:35,600
question but

735
00:31:39,350 --> 00:31:37,600
uh you know everybody's got their own

736
00:31:41,750 --> 00:31:39,360
reasons that for me it

737
00:31:43,750 --> 00:31:41,760
it wasn't really even a huge decision it

738
00:31:44,789 --> 00:31:43,760
was just a natural thing it was in my

739
00:31:46,950 --> 00:31:44,799
dna

740
00:31:48,870 --> 00:31:46,960
um

741
00:31:49,990 --> 00:31:48,880
that was a career path that that i was

742
00:31:51,830 --> 00:31:50,000
shooting for

743
00:31:53,750 --> 00:31:51,840
uh and all of the little milestones that

744
00:31:56,149 --> 00:31:53,760
lead up to it were were something that i

745
00:31:58,230 --> 00:31:56,159
wanted in my life just from being you

746
00:32:00,710 --> 00:31:58,240
know from being from childhood

747
00:32:02,230 --> 00:32:00,720
so you know was there one thing if it

748
00:32:03,590 --> 00:32:02,240
was anything it was neil armstrong

749
00:32:06,310 --> 00:32:03,600
walking on the moon

750
00:32:07,909 --> 00:32:06,320
um but then after that it was uh it was

751
00:32:11,029 --> 00:32:07,919
just in the middle of my head and it

752
00:32:14,230 --> 00:32:12,630
and you've taken i will elaborate a

753
00:32:16,389 --> 00:32:14,240
little bit you've taken you know many

754
00:32:17,909 --> 00:32:16,399
steps to get here can you tell a little

755
00:32:19,590 --> 00:32:17,919
bit about your journey to be an

756
00:32:21,590 --> 00:32:19,600
astronaut your background

757
00:32:23,509 --> 00:32:21,600
sure i figured out i went to a

758
00:32:24,470 --> 00:32:23,519
vocational high school

759
00:32:28,789 --> 00:32:24,480
and

760
00:32:30,230 --> 00:32:28,799
going to take a really

761
00:32:33,190 --> 00:32:30,240
in-depth

762
00:32:35,669 --> 00:32:33,200
intense education to be able to compete

763
00:32:38,070 --> 00:32:35,679
and to have value added when i to bring

764
00:32:40,630 --> 00:32:38,080
to the astronaut corps so i worked real

765
00:32:42,950 --> 00:32:40,640
hard got into undergraduate at umass

766
00:32:44,630 --> 00:32:42,960
dartmouth i worked really hard there in

767
00:32:45,990 --> 00:32:44,640
engineering and loved engineering and

768
00:32:47,909 --> 00:32:46,000
science

769
00:32:49,669 --> 00:32:47,919
and so i decided to go to graduate

770
00:32:51,909 --> 00:32:49,679
school i went to purdue university for

771
00:32:54,389 --> 00:32:51,919
graduate school i absolutely loved the

772
00:32:56,470 --> 00:32:54,399
sciences decided to just hold off i love

773
00:32:58,389 --> 00:32:56,480
flying airplanes and fast cars and

774
00:33:00,310 --> 00:32:58,399
motorcycles and things too

775
00:33:02,389 --> 00:33:00,320
but i decided to uh to hold off on the

776
00:33:04,230 --> 00:33:02,399
aviation thing and go get an engineering

777
00:33:06,149 --> 00:33:04,240
job on the west coast

778
00:33:08,310 --> 00:33:06,159
which was fantastic

779
00:33:10,389 --> 00:33:08,320
great learning great experience

780
00:33:11,909 --> 00:33:10,399
but i knew i needed to go fly airplanes

781
00:33:13,509 --> 00:33:11,919
as i was investigating the route what do

782
00:33:14,789 --> 00:33:13,519
i want to go to a phd and then try to be

783
00:33:17,269 --> 00:33:14,799
an astronaut or do i want to fly

784
00:33:19,590 --> 00:33:17,279
airplanes be a test pilot and try to fly

785
00:33:22,070 --> 00:33:19,600
and try to be an astronaut and and i

786
00:33:25,110 --> 00:33:22,080
decided that the the path for me was to

787
00:33:26,789 --> 00:33:25,120
go be a pilot and then a test pilot

788
00:33:28,070 --> 00:33:26,799
knowing that that was a very challenging

789
00:33:29,190 --> 00:33:28,080
physically challenging mentally

790
00:33:30,630 --> 00:33:29,200
challenging

791
00:33:32,710 --> 00:33:30,640
path to take

792
00:33:35,669 --> 00:33:32,720
but but it was a natural path for me to

793
00:33:38,470 --> 00:33:35,679
take so i ended up doing that and

794
00:33:40,470 --> 00:33:38,480
some years later here i am lucky there

795
00:33:42,950 --> 00:33:40,480
you go thank you all right nemo what

796
00:33:44,789 --> 00:33:42,960
inspired you to be an astronaut

797
00:33:47,350 --> 00:33:44,799
as i mentioned before

798
00:33:49,669 --> 00:33:47,360
i've never dreamed about becoming an

799
00:33:51,190 --> 00:33:49,679
astronaut when i was a kid

800
00:33:54,230 --> 00:33:51,200
but before

801
00:33:58,389 --> 00:33:54,240
becoming an astronaut i was working for

802
00:34:01,509 --> 00:33:58,399
the navy japan navy as a

803
00:34:04,149 --> 00:34:01,519
medical officer and diving officer so i

804
00:34:05,430 --> 00:34:04,159
was working for the diving medicine for

805
00:34:08,629 --> 00:34:05,440
a long time

806
00:34:11,750 --> 00:34:08,639
then i got interested in the extreme

807
00:34:13,270 --> 00:34:11,760
environment medicine and also space

808
00:34:14,869 --> 00:34:13,280
medicine then

809
00:34:17,030 --> 00:34:14,879
okay i'm

810
00:34:19,510 --> 00:34:17,040
let's think about becoming an

811
00:34:22,470 --> 00:34:19,520
astronaut or working in the space

812
00:34:25,510 --> 00:34:22,480
you know world then i was lucky enough

813
00:34:42,550 --> 00:34:25,520
to be selected as a astronaut candidate

814
00:34:46,790 --> 00:34:44,310
as i've mentioned previously it was my

815
00:34:48,790 --> 00:34:46,800
childhood dream in the 1970s when i was

816
00:34:50,389 --> 00:34:48,800
born in the soviet union all boys and

817
00:34:53,349 --> 00:34:50,399
girls were dreaming of becoming

818
00:34:53,359 --> 00:35:00,230
materials

819
00:35:04,550 --> 00:35:02,630
i read a lot of books about space

820
00:35:07,270 --> 00:35:04,560
exploration and cosmonauts and i watched

821
00:35:09,910 --> 00:35:07,280
a lot of different documentaries and

822
00:35:11,750 --> 00:35:09,920
programs about space exploration and i

823
00:35:13,990 --> 00:35:11,760
prepared the plan of how i was going to

824
00:35:17,670 --> 00:35:14,000
become a cosmonaut

825
00:35:28,950 --> 00:35:19,270
first of all i decided i was going to be

826
00:35:33,270 --> 00:35:30,470
so when i was still in high school when

827
00:35:39,910 --> 00:35:33,280
i turned 15 i started flying small uh

828
00:35:46,790 --> 00:35:42,950
uh same as uh maker i

829
00:35:49,990 --> 00:35:48,150
academia

830
00:35:54,710 --> 00:35:50,000
then i graduated from the air force

831
00:36:35,030 --> 00:35:56,069
i

832
00:36:36,870 --> 00:36:35,040
awesome what a journey thank you all for

833
00:36:39,190 --> 00:36:36,880
sharing um i think we have another

834
00:36:41,990 --> 00:36:39,200
question here in the room

835
00:36:44,310 --> 00:36:42,000
from fuji television it's japan uh the

836
00:36:47,190 --> 00:36:44,320
question is related to the experiment

837
00:36:50,230 --> 00:36:47,200
and i want to ask to kanai-san as you

838
00:36:53,190 --> 00:36:50,240
said you are excited to do the research

839
00:36:55,270 --> 00:36:53,200
a lot of research in the space i know uh

840
00:36:59,190 --> 00:36:55,280
most of them is important but uh which

841
00:37:02,310 --> 00:36:59,200
one is most excited to do and uh also

842
00:37:03,109 --> 00:37:02,320
how important is it for us in the earth

843
00:37:05,349 --> 00:37:03,119
or

844
00:37:07,349 --> 00:37:05,359
in the future

845
00:37:08,550 --> 00:37:07,359
okay that can be a difficult question

846
00:37:10,550 --> 00:37:08,560
but uh

847
00:37:13,430 --> 00:37:10,560
i'm interested in the

848
00:37:17,030 --> 00:37:13,440
the human health research

849
00:37:20,230 --> 00:37:17,040
like uh scott mentioned

850
00:37:23,270 --> 00:37:20,240
we are astronaut astronauts are

851
00:37:26,630 --> 00:37:23,280
not only helping supporting uh

852
00:37:29,910 --> 00:37:26,640
experiment but also we can be a

853
00:37:32,150 --> 00:37:29,920
medical or research subject of the

854
00:37:36,790 --> 00:37:32,160
the science so we

855
00:37:37,829 --> 00:37:36,800
draw bloods or correct urines or saliva

856
00:37:40,390 --> 00:37:37,839
as a

857
00:37:43,510 --> 00:37:40,400
research specimen

858
00:37:45,829 --> 00:37:43,520
so i'm interested in that kind of human

859
00:37:48,390 --> 00:37:45,839
research because

860
00:37:52,950 --> 00:37:48,400
partially because i'm former i'm a

861
00:37:56,150 --> 00:37:54,950
how can i say you know

862
00:38:00,550 --> 00:37:56,160
uh

863
00:38:03,349 --> 00:38:00,560
the astronaut human body in space is a

864
00:38:05,270 --> 00:38:03,359
good representative of

865
00:38:06,870 --> 00:38:05,280
like a

866
00:38:08,390 --> 00:38:06,880
aged

867
00:38:09,910 --> 00:38:08,400
aging

868
00:38:11,910 --> 00:38:09,920
process of the

869
00:38:13,829 --> 00:38:11,920
the human on the

870
00:38:15,190 --> 00:38:13,839
earth so

871
00:38:16,630 --> 00:38:15,200
as

872
00:38:20,390 --> 00:38:16,640
by

873
00:38:21,829 --> 00:38:20,400
studying astronauts body in space we can

874
00:38:24,630 --> 00:38:21,839
figure out

875
00:38:27,030 --> 00:38:24,640
what is the aging process

876
00:38:30,470 --> 00:38:27,040
actually what it is it

877
00:38:35,910 --> 00:38:33,349
the astronaut research can contribute to

878
00:38:39,430 --> 00:38:35,920
a good medical

879
00:38:42,150 --> 00:38:39,440
treatment on the earth

880
00:38:44,630 --> 00:38:42,160
great that's a great example of a

881
00:38:46,069 --> 00:38:44,640
benefit from space flight that as you

882
00:38:48,470 --> 00:38:46,079
talked about you know the muscles and

883
00:38:50,550 --> 00:38:48,480
the bones deteriorate so much faster and

884
00:38:53,270 --> 00:38:50,560
a different pace in space

885
00:38:55,589 --> 00:38:53,280
and so we can study in space what it

886
00:38:57,670 --> 00:38:55,599
takes much longer to study on the ground

887
00:38:59,910 --> 00:38:57,680
for the bones and the muscles

888
00:39:02,150 --> 00:38:59,920
and i know that one of the benefits for

889
00:39:04,230 --> 00:39:02,160
people with osteoporosis is space

890
00:39:05,910 --> 00:39:04,240
research and changing the diet and

891
00:39:07,910 --> 00:39:05,920
medicines and things like that to help

892
00:39:09,190 --> 00:39:07,920
with that so it's great

893
00:39:10,310 --> 00:39:09,200
all right we have another question over

894
00:39:13,030 --> 00:39:10,320
here

895
00:39:14,870 --> 00:39:13,040
hi i'm george carlson the kc5 rcc with

896
00:39:17,670 --> 00:39:14,880
the makerspace

897
00:39:19,430 --> 00:39:17,680
uh maker barn in magnolia texas and and

898
00:39:21,349 --> 00:39:19,440
i'm an amateur radio guy and i was

899
00:39:23,270 --> 00:39:21,359
wondering if you guys were amateur radio

900
00:39:25,910 --> 00:39:23,280
guys and uh if you're going to activate

901
00:39:28,470 --> 00:39:25,920
the station on board the

902
00:39:31,670 --> 00:39:28,480
iss while you're up there

903
00:39:34,150 --> 00:39:31,680
yep i'm a ham radio guy and uh we've got

904
00:39:36,870 --> 00:39:34,160
several events uh already planned out to

905
00:39:38,470 --> 00:39:36,880
as part of our outreach uh effort while

906
00:39:42,630 --> 00:39:38,480
while i'm on station so hopefully i'll

907
00:39:46,790 --> 00:39:44,950
yes uh we were taking a tour before we

908
00:39:49,109 --> 00:39:46,800
got here we noticed that all the patches

909
00:39:50,710 --> 00:39:49,119
are different for each mission and they

910
00:39:53,510 --> 00:39:50,720
said that you guys designed the patch

911
00:39:55,190 --> 00:39:53,520
for your mission and it has special

912
00:39:58,390 --> 00:39:55,200
meaning i'm sure to you guys could you

913
00:39:59,510 --> 00:39:58,400
explain the artwork on your patch

914
00:40:01,750 --> 00:39:59,520
sure

915
00:40:04,390 --> 00:40:01,760
this patch was actually designed by tim

916
00:40:06,710 --> 00:40:04,400
gagnon and we looked at it and modified

917
00:40:09,510 --> 00:40:06,720
it a little bit

918
00:40:11,670 --> 00:40:09,520
obviously the 55 is our expedition

919
00:40:13,510 --> 00:40:11,680
uh when you look at the earth the earth

920
00:40:15,829 --> 00:40:13,520
and the colors represent how beautiful

921
00:40:18,150 --> 00:40:15,839
our our planet is and and how we take

922
00:40:20,950 --> 00:40:18,160
care of it we've got the flags that come

923
00:40:22,150 --> 00:40:20,960
up that represent the three uh countries

924
00:40:24,390 --> 00:40:22,160
that are

925
00:40:25,589 --> 00:40:24,400
represented by the crew on the on this

926
00:40:27,270 --> 00:40:25,599
expedition

927
00:40:29,349 --> 00:40:27,280
and as well we've got the three rings

928
00:40:30,630 --> 00:40:29,359
together coming together to fill a

929
00:40:32,710 --> 00:40:30,640
common goal

930
00:40:34,790 --> 00:40:32,720
and getting the science done on station

931
00:40:36,790 --> 00:40:34,800
and those three rings represent russia

932
00:40:39,190 --> 00:40:36,800
united states and

933
00:40:41,829 --> 00:40:39,200
japan as part of the crew represented on

934
00:40:43,670 --> 00:40:41,839
in this expedition for that keep in mind

935
00:40:45,270 --> 00:40:43,680
there are 16 to 18 international

936
00:40:48,390 --> 00:40:45,280
partners at any time and we are

937
00:40:50,150 --> 00:40:48,400
appreciative of all of them

938
00:40:52,390 --> 00:40:50,160
great thank you very interesting all

939
00:40:53,430 --> 00:40:52,400
right i think we have another question

940
00:40:54,710 --> 00:40:53,440
in the room

941
00:40:55,990 --> 00:40:54,720
everybody else

942
00:41:02,069 --> 00:40:56,000
all right do we have one for social

943
00:41:05,750 --> 00:41:04,150
he asks have you ever wished others

944
00:41:07,910 --> 00:41:05,760
could travel to the space station to

945
00:41:09,349 --> 00:41:07,920
gain your perspective and maybe you can

946
00:41:11,030 --> 00:41:09,359
talk a little bit about how you might

947
00:41:14,140 --> 00:41:11,040
plan to share that with us on social

948
00:41:14,150 --> 00:41:27,510
[Laughter]

949
00:41:31,990 --> 00:41:29,510
i should say that we spent about six

950
00:41:44,470 --> 00:41:32,000
months on board of the iss it's hard

951
00:41:49,270 --> 00:41:46,150
you see we have a well-built team on

952
00:41:51,030 --> 00:41:49,280
board of the iss and if i were somehow

953
00:41:53,589 --> 00:41:51,040
given a chance to bring all my friends

954
00:41:57,430 --> 00:41:53,599
and family members on board of the iss i

955
00:42:00,790 --> 00:41:59,349
yeah same for me if i had a choice i'd

956
00:42:02,950 --> 00:42:00,800
bring you all with me it would just make

957
00:42:04,150 --> 00:42:02,960
it so much easier a lot of us wish that

958
00:42:05,750 --> 00:42:04,160
could happen right

959
00:42:07,270 --> 00:42:05,760
that would be so great and even though

960
00:42:08,950 --> 00:42:07,280
we can't physically i will be bringing

961
00:42:11,589 --> 00:42:08,960
you bringing you all and my family and

962
00:42:13,589 --> 00:42:11,599
friends with me in my heart and soul

963
00:42:15,270 --> 00:42:13,599
but through social media you know it's

964
00:42:17,270 --> 00:42:15,280

965
00:42:18,630 --> 00:42:17,280

here on the ground is to see the

983
00:42:57,030 --> 00:42:55,119
pictures that you guys take from space

984
00:42:58,790 --> 00:42:57,040
it's really a perspective that most of

985
00:43:00,790 --> 00:42:58,800
us will never have a chance to see but

986
00:43:02,870 --> 00:43:00,800

987
00:43:04,710 --> 00:43:02,880
being able to to see your pictures and

988
00:43:06,710 --> 00:43:04,720
as easily as getting on twitter or

989
00:43:07,589 --> 00:43:06,720
facebook and all that so thank you for

990
00:43:09,829 --> 00:43:07,599

992
00:43:16,790 --> 00:43:12,079
the phone bridge barbara lebron with

993
00:43:23,670 --> 00:43:21,030
hi thank you i'm i just had a question

994
00:43:26,230 --> 00:43:23,680
about the cooperative nature of this do

995
00:43:28,550 --> 00:43:26,240
you see this as a model in any way for

996
00:43:32,069 --> 00:43:28,560
international cooperation other

997
00:43:35,589 --> 00:43:32,079
seemingly intractable issues

998
00:43:37,670 --> 00:43:35,599
that are out there that are out there

999
00:43:39,910 --> 00:43:37,680
absolutely you know this program has

1000
00:43:42,630 --> 00:43:39,920
been has been steady it's been

1001
00:43:45,270 --> 00:43:42,640
consistent and it's been reliable uh

1002
00:43:47,750 --> 00:43:45,280
when at the working level we are very

1003
00:43:49,910 --> 00:43:47,760
tight when i go over to train in russia

1004
00:43:51,990 --> 00:43:49,920
they treat me like their family and and

1005
00:43:53,910 --> 00:43:52,000
they're very interested in my success

1006
00:43:56,710 --> 00:43:53,920
and when folks from from russia come

1007
00:43:58,630 --> 00:43:56,720
over here uh they do exactly the same

1008
00:44:01,270 --> 00:43:58,640
thing same thing here and the same with

1009
00:44:02,630 --> 00:44:01,280
japan the same with europe the same as

1010
00:44:05,030 --> 00:44:02,640
any other country that we're working

1011
00:44:07,270 --> 00:44:05,040
with um i i think anybody in this

1012
00:44:09,510 --> 00:44:07,280
program will pretty much agree that that

1013
00:44:12,870 --> 00:44:09,520
this is a real good model for

1014
00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:26,309
anything to add

1015
00:44:30,630 --> 00:44:28,470
i always had a dream of gathering

1016
00:44:32,710 --> 00:44:30,640
together the leaders of all the largest

1017
00:44:34,550 --> 00:44:32,720
uh countries in the world putting them

1018
00:44:50,309 --> 00:44:34,560
in one spaceship and launching them into

1019
00:44:54,390 --> 00:44:51,910
and the main reason not what you were

1020
00:44:57,109 --> 00:44:54,400
thinking is to

1021
00:45:02,150 --> 00:44:57,119
let them see our planet from space and

1022
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:14,069
by much

1023
00:45:18,230 --> 00:45:15,990
i hope that after they come back to

1024
00:45:20,150 --> 00:45:18,240
earth they will understand that iss is a

1025
00:45:21,910 --> 00:45:20,160
great example of how people with

1026
00:45:24,390 --> 00:45:21,920
different backgrounds coming from

1027
00:45:26,710 --> 00:45:24,400
different cultures can create

1028
00:45:29,510 --> 00:45:26,720
something together and contribute to the

1029
00:45:33,589 --> 00:45:31,430
great i think that's a great way to end

1030
00:45:36,150 --> 00:45:33,599
