I'm ready to copy all the parameters

69
00:03:04,130 --> 00:03:01,620
guys this is Sawyer's lead this is just

70
00:03:05,900 --> 00:03:04,140
one with this day of historical

71
00:03:07,340 --> 00:03:05,910
significance so much on our minds that

72
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:07,350
is not lost on the crew members

73
00:03:11,690 --> 00:03:09,330
themselves who are set to launch a short

74
00:03:13,940 --> 00:03:11,700
time from now recently during pre-launch

75
00:03:16,340 --> 00:03:13,950
activities at Red Square in Moscow

76
00:03:18,740 --> 00:03:16,350
NASA's drew Morgan who's a colonel in

77
00:03:20,750 --> 00:03:18,750
the United States Army took a moment to

78
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:20,760
reflect on the significance of launching

79
00:03:24,590 --> 00:03:22,410
to the International Space Station on

80
00:03:27,170 --> 00:03:24,600
this day the 50th anniversary of the

81
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:27,180
landing of Apollo 11 at tranquility base

82
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:32,970
I think that it's a huge honor for both

83
00:03:37,070 --> 00:03:35,250
my crew my Soyuz crew as well as the

84
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:37,080
entire crew of expedition 60 that will

85
00:03:41,420 --> 00:03:40,290
be joining and for us to be launching as

86
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:41,430
an international crew to the

87
00:03:45,699 --> 00:03:43,650
International Space Station it's just a

88
00:03:48,890 --> 00:03:45,709
beautiful way to commemorate that and

89
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:48,900
for us here in the same year that nASA

90
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:50,610
has laid out this very bold plan to

91
00:03:54,740 --> 00:03:51,930
return to the surface of the Moon by

92
00:03:57,050 --> 00:03:54,750
2024 as part of the Artemis program this

93
00:03:58,670 --> 00:03:57,060
is just a just a tremendous honor for us

94
00:04:00,890 --> 00:03:58,680
to be participating this way and to be

95
00:04:02,990 --> 00:04:00,900
carrying the torch forward of space

96
00:04:05,570 --> 00:04:03,000
exploration and continuing to a spot to

97
00:04:12,259 --> 00:04:05,580
inspire generations both today and

98
00:04:14,270 --> 00:04:12,269
generations in the future and for Luca

Italian Air Force the Apollo program

101
00:04:21,770 --> 00:04:19,140
represented a dream to be fulfilled and

102
00:04:28,370 --> 00:04:21,780
the moon has a special destination to

103
00:04:29,900 --> 00:04:28,380
visit with a live view of the Soyuz

104

earlier have gone by the book everything

113
00:05:01,550 --> 00:04:57,450
proceeding on track in about 10 minutes

114
00:05:04,330 --> 00:05:01,560
the retraction of the gantry arms will

115
00:05:07,490 --> 00:05:04,340
be completed to expose the Soyuz booster

116
00:05:07,820 --> 00:05:07,500

Soyuz spacecraft is closed as we

123
00:05:26,570 --> 00:05:24,960
mentioned earlier Luca parmitano of the

124

European Space Agency who is a

125
00:05:31,070 --> 00:05:28,680
lieutenant colonel in the Italian Air

126
00:05:33,110 --> 00:05:31,080
Force in pre-launch activities at Red

127
00:05:35,390 --> 00:05:33,120
Square in Moscow a few weeks ago before

128
00:05:37,940 --> 00:05:35,400
the crew departed for Baikonur also

129
00:05:39,530 --> 00:05:37,950
offered his views on the significance of

130
00:05:41,690 --> 00:05:39,540
launching on this day the 50th

131
00:05:46,730 --> 00:05:41,700
anniversary of Apollo 11s landing on the

132
00:05:48,980 --> 00:05:46,740
moon I think my generation was affected

133
00:05:51,530 --> 00:05:48,990
by the Apollo program despite the fact

134
00:05:56,740 --> 00:05:51,540
that we didn't see it happening I was

135
00:06:00,860 --> 00:05:56,750
born about six years after the last

136
00:06:04,430 --> 00:06:00,870
landing but it was such a momentous

137
00:06:07,010 --> 00:06:04,440
event we change humanity forever that it

138
00:06:12,410 --> 00:06:07,020
created what I would call a collective

139
00:06:16,790 --> 00:06:12,420
memory growing up I would I would see it

140
00:06:18,830 --> 00:06:16,800
in toys or reports on on TV

141
00:06:21,620 --> 00:06:18,840
documentaries I could I would hear my

142
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:21,630
parents talk about it and as a matter of

143
00:06:25,790 --> 00:06:24,090
fact for the first 10 or 12 years of my

144
00:06:27,740 --> 00:06:25,800
life I was convinced that we were still

145
00:06:30,020 --> 00:06:27,750
going to the moon I was not aware of the

146
00:06:33,890 --> 00:06:30,030
fact that we had stopped traveling to

147
00:06:36,890 --> 00:06:33,900
the moon long before I was born so it

148
00:06:38,540 --> 00:06:36,900
gave me a sense that going to the moon

149
00:06:40,280 --> 00:06:38,550
and being an astronaut was something

150
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:40,290
possible despite the fact that I was

151
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:42,210
born in Sicily which is that the

152
00:06:47,660 --> 00:06:44,490
periphery of Europe far away from

153
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:47,670
anything that is aerospace related I

154
00:06:52,280 --> 00:06:49,890
think he affected me more ways that I

155
00:06:54,980 --> 00:06:52,290
can describe because it gave me it gave

156
00:06:57,920 --> 00:06:54,990
me that sense of possibility which is

157
00:07:00,910 --> 00:06:57,930
what I would like to communicate when I

158
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:00,920
talk to students and young kids that

159
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:06,210
things are possible that was Luca

160
00:07:10,250 --> 00:07:08,370
parmitano who was board engineer number

161
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:10,260
one seated in the left seat of the Soyuz

162
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:13,410

Morgan NASA's next astronaut to fly in

428
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:21,250
I think I often describe myself as a

429
00:31:30,250 --> 00:31:24,530
soldier a physician and an astronaut the

430
00:31:35,090 --> 00:31:32,990
one of the earliest memories I have is

431
00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:35,100
of always wanting to be in the military

432
00:31:39,110 --> 00:31:37,290
of wanting to be a soldier quite a

433
00:31:42,050 --> 00:31:39,120
history of military service in our

434
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:42,060
family both of my grandparents my my

435
00:31:46,430 --> 00:31:44,490
father was an Air Force officer and I

436
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:46,440
also remember my parents telling me a

437
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:48,690
story about my great uncle Clank Perry

438
00:31:52,610 --> 00:31:50,970
McClintock who was a paratrooper in

439
00:31:55,490 --> 00:31:52,620
World War two he was in the 101st

440
00:31:57,650 --> 00:31:55,500
Airborne Division and jumped at Normandy

441
00:31:59,930 --> 00:31:57,660
on d-day and then jumped in operation

442
00:32:01,610 --> 00:31:59,940
Market Garden in Holland and that was

443
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:01,620
the first time I had ever heard of the

444
00:32:05,330 --> 00:32:03,450
concept of a paratrooper or what it

445
00:32:07,790 --> 00:32:05,340
meant to be an airborne soldier so when

446
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:07,800
I later decided and graduated in high

447
00:32:12,110 --> 00:32:10,410
school and I went to West Point I knew

448
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:12,120
that I was very interested in this

449
00:32:15,650 --> 00:32:14,130
concept of being an airborne soldier at

450
00:32:18,110 --> 00:32:15,660
West Point they had a parachute team

451
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:18,120
called the Black Knights yes I made the

452
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:21,330
parachute team and and that became one

453
00:32:24,590 --> 00:32:22,890
of the central activities of my

454
00:32:27,860 --> 00:32:24,600
remaining three and a half years at West

455
00:32:29,810 --> 00:32:27,870
Point in addition to academics after

456
00:32:32,150 --> 00:32:29,820
class we jumped most days of the week

457
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:32,160
but then we were also demonstration team

458
00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:34,530
so we jumped in football games also

459
00:32:38,450 --> 00:32:35,970
while I was a cadet I went through

460
00:32:41,420 --> 00:32:38,460
military basic airborne course which

461
00:32:43,700 --> 00:32:41,430
taught military static lines parachuting

462
00:32:46,010 --> 00:32:43,710
specifically the parachute aspect of it

463
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:46,020
if I go back to the time when I was a

464
00:32:51,500 --> 00:32:49,410
cadet my teammates that I was selected

465
00:32:54,590 --> 00:32:51,510
with became my best friends in the world

466
00:32:56,750 --> 00:32:54,600
and continued to be to this day and that

467
00:32:58,790 --> 00:32:56,760
camaraderie that we had and that

468
00:33:00,740 --> 00:32:58,800
dependency we had on each other making

469
00:33:02,810 --> 00:33:00,750
sure that we were skilled in the

470
00:33:05,150 --> 00:33:02,820
aircraft skilled in the air our lives

471
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:05,160
depended on each other to do safety

472
00:33:08,900 --> 00:33:06,450
checks of each other that type of

473
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:08,910
camaraderie is something that I feel now

474
00:33:13,610 --> 00:33:11,250
in the astronaut corps with my astronaut

475
00:33:15,250 --> 00:33:13,620

476
00:33:18,220 --> 00:33:15,260

477
00:33:22,230 --> 00:33:18,230

today as we've mentioned several times

651
00:40:36,020 --> 00:40:33,510
earlier in this broadcast and inspired

652
00:40:37,579 --> 00:40:36,030
by the Apollo missions drew Morgan

653
00:40:39,770 --> 00:40:37,589
described the significance and the

654
00:40:42,020 --> 00:40:39,780
symbolism of his cruise expedition 60

655
00:40:45,530 --> 00:40:42,030
crew patch during a recent crew news

656
00:40:47,839 --> 00:40:45,540
conference 60 patch there are elements

657
00:40:50,540 --> 00:40:47,849
of that hatch that commemorate the

658
00:40:52,550 --> 00:40:50,550
Apollo 11 moon landing you are familiar

659
00:40:55,190 --> 00:40:52,560
with the Apollo 11 patch bears some

660
00:40:56,300 --> 00:40:55,200
resemblance rather than the moon in the

661
00:40:57,410 --> 00:40:56,310
foreground we have the earth in the

662
00:41:00,349 --> 00:40:57,420
foreground and the moon in the

663
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:00,359
background and the El constellation for

664
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:01,650
the fifty years and then the Eagle

665
00:41:06,020 --> 00:41:03,930
constellation and just like the Eagle in

666
00:41:07,970 --> 00:41:06,030
the Apollo 11 patch so you know the

667
00:41:09,079 --> 00:41:07,980
patch designers and the crew came

668
00:41:10,849 --> 00:41:09,089
together and really thought this was a

669
00:41:12,770 --> 00:41:10,859
great idea and very similar to the

670
00:41:14,839 --> 00:41:12,780
Apollo 11 patch of course there are no

671
00:41:16,579 --> 00:41:14,849
names represented on this patch which

672
00:41:19,790 --> 00:41:16,589
was an important element for us as well

673
00:41:21,859 --> 00:41:19,800
that to really embody that sense that

674
00:41:27,770 --> 00:41:21,869
this was an accomplishment of the world

675
00:41:29,210 --> 00:41:27,780
and not one single country and we're

676
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:29,220
back with our live coverage of the

677
00:41:33,859 --> 00:41:31,290
launch of Morgan parmitano and supports

678
00:41:35,420 --> 00:41:33,869
off and of course on the launch pad at

679
00:41:39,650 --> 00:41:35,430
the Baikonur cosmodrome in Kazakhstan

680
00:41:41,870 --> 00:41:39,660
the Soyuz ms-13 stands on the floodlit

681
00:41:45,349 --> 00:41:41,880
launch pad with liftoff scheduled just

682
00:41:48,829 --> 00:41:45,359
under 14 minutes from now the Soyuz

683
00:41:50,710 --> 00:41:48,839
rocket stands 162 feet tall weighs six

684
00:41:53,660 --> 00:41:50,720
hundred eighty thousand pounds and

685
00:41:56,150 --> 00:41:53,670
consists of the Soyuz ms-13 inside a

686
00:42:00,290 --> 00:41:56,160
protective shroud at the top and the

687
00:42:03,829 --> 00:42:00,300
three-stage Soyuz FG booster below the

688
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:03,839
Soyuz spacecraft that will take our trio

689
00:42:08,690 --> 00:42:06,930
of crew members to orbit today was mated

690
00:42:11,420 --> 00:42:08,700
to its booster and the three main stages

691
00:42:14,630 --> 00:42:11,430
were joined together on Wednesday just

692
00:42:17,240 --> 00:42:14,640
24 hours later on Thursday the soyuz

693
00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:17,250
rocket began its trek to the launch pad

694
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:19,770
right on time at 7 a.m. Baikonur time

695
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:22,650
maintaining tradition arriving less than

696
00:42:27,140 --> 00:42:24,930
two hours later where it was raised to

697
00:42:30,620 --> 00:42:27,150
its vertical position for final

698
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:30,630
pre-launch preparations the Soyuz is now

699
00:42:34,700 --> 00:42:32,370
of course poised for launch with its

700
00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:34,710
three crew members on board the Soyuz

701
00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:36,570
spacecraft sitting high above the three

702
00:42:41,350 --> 00:42:39,330
stages of the Soyuz booster which uses

703
00:42:46,850 --> 00:42:41,360
kerosene and liquid oxygen as the

704
00:42:48,740 --> 00:42:46,860
propellant at engine ignition the Soyuz

705
00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:48,750
as engines will come up to flight speed

706
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:51,090
the launch pad hold down arms will

707
00:42:57,350 --> 00:42:53,490
retract and the booster rocket will be

708
00:42:59,450 --> 00:42:57,360
on its way the first stage engines and

709
00:43:02,000 --> 00:42:59,460
liquid fuel strap-on boosters will burn

710
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:02,010
for about one minute 58 seconds as the

711
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:04,050
Soyuz arcs out to the northeast from the

712
00:43:07,730 --> 00:43:06,090
Baikonur cosmodrome on a trajectory

713
00:43:09,650 --> 00:43:07,740
designed to catch up to the

714
00:43:12,350 --> 00:43:09,660
International Space Station six hours

715
00:43:15,170 --> 00:43:12,360
later just before first stage separation

716
00:43:17,720 --> 00:43:15,180
the vehicles launch escape tower will be

717
00:43:19,580 --> 00:43:17,730
jettisoned followed seconds later by the

718
00:43:22,820 --> 00:43:19,590
jettisoning of the four strap-on

719
00:43:24,890 --> 00:43:22,830
first-stage boosters about a half minute

720
00:43:26,830 --> 00:43:24,900
later the clamshell fairing around the

721
00:43:29,810 --> 00:43:26,840
upper stage of the booster will separate

722
00:43:31,940 --> 00:43:29,820
exposing the Soyuz ms-13 for the first

723
00:43:34,940 --> 00:43:31,950
time as the Soyuz continues its Trek

724
00:43:36,740 --> 00:43:34,950
uphill the second stage of the Soyuz

725
00:43:39,770 --> 00:43:36,750
rocket will burn until the four minute

726
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:39,780
57 second mark when the third stage will

727
00:43:43,970 --> 00:43:41,850
ignite a so-called hot stage technique

728
00:43:46,460 --> 00:43:43,980
that precedes the separation of the

729
00:43:49,310 --> 00:43:46,470
second stage the third stage will

730
00:43:51,230 --> 00:43:49,320
continue to fire until eight minutes 45

731
00:43:53,510 --> 00:43:51,240
seconds after launch when it too will

732
00:43:56,540 --> 00:43:53,520

the words of Alexander Skvortsov saying

854
00:49:35,860 --> 00:49:32,900
the crew feels well they are ready for

855
00:49:37,780 --> 00:49:35,870
launch by the way a launch key has now

856
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:37,790
been inserted in the launch bunker this

857
00:49:47,829 --> 00:49:40,010
is a real key that transitions the

858
00:49:53,030 --> 00:49:50,630
and you're hearing some of the music

859
00:49:57,260 --> 00:49:53,040
that is piped in from the blockhouse in

860
00:49:59,180 --> 00:49:57,270
Baikonur to relax the crew in the final
