emission of 78.4 million miles

3
00:00:11,589 --> 00:00:09,519
we are just uh less than 31 minutes away

4
00:00:14,629 --> 00:00:11,599
from the engine firing of four minutes

5
00:00:17,990 --> 00:00:14,639
and 39 seconds now that will slow the

6
00:00:20,550 --> 00:00:18,000
soyuz down by 128 meters per second to

7
00:00:22,310 --> 00:00:20,560
enable the soyuz to drop out of orbit to

8
00:00:25,429 --> 00:00:22,320
begin its entry back into the earth's

9
00:00:28,550 --> 00:00:25,439
atmosphere and a landing just one hour

10
00:00:31,509 --> 00:00:28,560
and 24 minutes from now on the step of

11
00:00:33,990 --> 00:00:31,519
kazakhstan 91 miles to the southeast of

12
00:00:35,750 --> 00:00:34,000
the town of zhezkazgan where russian

13
00:00:38,069 --> 00:00:35,760
search and recovery forces will be

14
00:00:40,790 --> 00:00:38,079
awaiting the arrival of these three crew

15
00:00:42,069 --> 00:00:40,800
members who have spent uh half a year in

16
00:00:44,150 --> 00:00:42,079
space

17
00:00:47,029 --> 00:00:44,160
everything is in great shape aboard the

18
00:00:49,830 --> 00:00:47,039
soyuz spacecraft all the systems are

19
00:00:52,069 --> 00:00:49,840
checked out ready to go just a short

20
00:00:54,150 --> 00:00:52,079
time ago just a few minutes ago the

21
00:00:57,270 --> 00:00:54,160

training center

25
00:01:04,789 --> 00:01:02,480
radioed up to the crew

26
00:01:07,830 --> 00:01:04,799
that conditions at the landing site are

27
00:01:11,030 --> 00:01:07,840
calm and peaceful he's described the air

28
00:01:13,510 --> 00:01:11,040
as fresh with low humidity and said

29
00:01:16,390 --> 00:01:13,520
the landing site has the smell of spring

30
00:01:19,109 --> 00:01:16,400
it smells like freshly cut grass have a

31
00:01:21,590 --> 00:01:19,119
good flight home to your home planet

32
00:01:23,510 --> 00:01:21,600
those words coming from pavel vlassoff

take off a short time from now

41
00:01:43,190 --> 00:01:41,360
most of them heading for the prime

42

midpoint between the landing site and

46
00:01:54,710 --> 00:01:52,560
the baikonur cosmodrome in kazakhstan in

47
00:01:57,270 --> 00:01:54,720
the event of a ballistic landing the

48
00:02:00,149 --> 00:01:57,280
unlikely event of a shortfall in the uh

49
00:02:02,789 --> 00:02:00,159
trajectory of the soyuz back to earth

50

78
00:03:31,750 --> 00:03:29,430
some five hours ago aboard the

79
00:03:33,509 --> 00:03:31,760
international space station the three

80
00:03:35,670 --> 00:03:33,519
departing crew members

81
00:03:38,149 --> 00:03:35,680
had an opportunity one final time to say

82
00:03:39,990 --> 00:03:38,159
goodbye to the crew members who are

83

remaining on board the station now part

84
00:03:45,430 --> 00:03:43,120
of expedition 65 that officially began

85
00:03:47,910 --> 00:03:45,440
with the undocking of the soyuz

86
00:03:50,630 --> 00:03:47,920
from the international outpost they had

87
00:03:53,030 --> 00:03:50,640
a chance to say farewell to one another

88
00:03:55,110 --> 00:03:53,040
and then make their way into the soyuz

89
00:03:56,630 --> 00:03:55,120
spacecraft where they subsequently

90
00:04:00,550 --> 00:03:56,640
closed the hatches

91
00:04:01,750 --> 00:04:00,560
those hatches swung closed at 5 24 pm

92
00:04:04,309 --> 00:04:01,760
central time

00:04:06,149 --> 00:04:04,319
6 24 pm eastern time

94
00:04:09,270 --> 00:04:06,159
after which the three departing crew

95
00:04:11,190 --> 00:04:09,280
members began a series of leak checks on

96
00:04:13,509 --> 00:04:11,200
their side of the docking interface as

97
00:04:15,910 --> 00:04:13,519
did the station crew on their side in

98
00:04:17,270 --> 00:04:15,920
the poisk module of the international

99
00:04:18,550 --> 00:04:17,280

rubins sergey rizhikov and sergey kood

105
00:04:31,990 --> 00:04:29,759
then donned their russian circle launch

106
00:04:35,110 --> 00:04:32,000
and entry suits conducted leak checks on

107
00:04:38,150 --> 00:04:35,120
those suits closed the hatches to the

108
00:04:40,790 --> 00:04:38,160
uppermost portion of the soyuz

109
00:04:41,749 --> 00:04:40,800
spacecraft the orbital module section

110
00:04:44,070 --> 00:04:41,759
and

111
00:04:46,390 --> 00:04:44,080
configured all of their systems

112
00:04:48,390 --> 00:04:46,400
conducted communications checks and

113
00:04:58,230 --> 00:04:48,400
everything is in great shape

114
00:05:04,310 --> 00:05:02,150
at 8 34 pm central time 9 34 pm eastern

115
00:05:07,350 --> 00:05:04,320
time as the international space station

116
00:05:09,909 --> 00:05:07,360
flew over the mongolian chinese border

117
00:05:12,390 --> 00:05:09,919
hooks were opened between the soyuz and

118
00:05:13,990 --> 00:05:12,400
the poisk module springs on both sides

119
00:05:16,390 --> 00:05:14,000
of the docking interface pushed off

120
00:05:17,350 --> 00:05:16,400
against one another and the soyuz was

121
00:05:20,230 --> 00:05:17,360
free

122
00:05:23,270 --> 00:05:20,240
backing away from the docking port to

123
00:05:26,070 --> 00:05:23,280
which it had relocated just a month ago

124
00:05:28,070 --> 00:05:26,080
to free up the rassvet module on the

125
00:05:31,350 --> 00:05:28,080
earth-facing side of the russian segment

126
00:05:33,749 --> 00:05:31,360
of the station for the arrival last week

127
00:05:36,070 --> 00:05:33,759
of three new crew members who

128
00:05:39,670 --> 00:05:36,080
made their way to the space station that

129
00:05:41,830 --> 00:05:39,680
being oleg novitskiy piotr dubrov and

131
00:05:47,670 --> 00:05:44,639
the soyuz slowly backed away there were

132
00:05:50,550 --> 00:05:47,680
two firings of soyuz thrusters and a

133
00:05:52,310 --> 00:05:50,560
pair of separation burns to maintain an

134
00:05:53,270 --> 00:05:52,320
opening rate and increase that opening

135
00:05:55,909 --> 00:05:53,280
rate

136
00:05:59,029 --> 00:05:55,919
from the international space station

137
00:06:01,350 --> 00:05:59,039
the soyuz has now moved to a position

138
00:06:03,189 --> 00:06:01,360
some 32 kilometers away from the

139
00:06:05,510 --> 00:06:03,199
international space station in

140
00:06:08,469 --> 00:06:05,520
preparation for the deorbit burn that

141
00:06:15,990 --> 00:06:08,479
will be coming up less than 25 minutes

142
00:06:21,110 --> 00:06:18,629
25 minutes of rust deactivation attitude

143
00:06:29,270 --> 00:06:21,120
is nominal and the angle is currently

144
00:06:34,710 --> 00:06:32,870
the deorbit burn is scheduled at 1101 pm

145
00:06:38,230 --> 00:06:34,720
central time it again will be a four

146
00:06:40,790 --> 00:06:38,240
minute 39 second retrograde firing a

147
00:06:43,510 --> 00:06:40,800
breaking maneuver of the soyuz engines

148
00:06:45,510 --> 00:06:43,520
to slow the vehicle down by 128 meters

149
00:06:46,629 --> 00:06:45,520
per second allowing it to drop out of

150
00:06:52,070 --> 00:06:46,639
orbit

151
00:06:54,469 --> 00:06:52,080
pyrotechnics will fire to separate the

152
00:06:56,070 --> 00:06:54,479
three sections of the soyuz the three

153
00:06:58,950 --> 00:06:56,080
crew members on the center section or

154
00:07:00,870 --> 00:06:58,960
descent module will feel the g-forces

155
00:07:03,189 --> 00:07:00,880
building up around them as they move

156
00:07:06,629 --> 00:07:03,199
through the plasma regime of the earth's

157
00:07:07,670 --> 00:07:06,639
atmosphere once they exit the plasma

158
00:07:08,390 --> 00:07:07,680
regime

159
00:07:12,629 --> 00:07:08,400

parachutes 15 minutes before touchdown

161
00:07:17,990 --> 00:07:14,960
first a drogue chute followed by a giant

162
00:07:19,990 --> 00:07:18,000
main chute and the soyuz will be canted

163
00:07:22,469 --> 00:07:20,000
into the correct position for its

164
00:07:25,270 --> 00:07:22,479
altimeter to measure its rate of descent

165
00:07:27,430 --> 00:07:25,280
and its altitude from the landing site

166
00:07:30,309 --> 00:07:27,440
just a few seconds before touchdown soft

167
00:07:31,510 --> 00:07:30,319
landing engines will fire and the soyuz

168
00:07:34,550 --> 00:07:31,520
will be home

169
00:07:35,909 --> 00:07:34,560
with landings scheduled at 11 56 pm

170
00:07:39,990 --> 00:07:35,919
central time

171

10 56 a.m kazakhstan time on saturday

172
00:07:44,390 --> 00:07:41,440
morning

173
00:07:47,430 --> 00:07:44,400
at the landing site just a few clouds

174
00:07:50,150 --> 00:07:47,440
are noticed at about the 25 000 foot

175
00:07:52,150 --> 00:07:50,160
level visibility in excess of 6 miles

176
00:07:54,150 --> 00:07:52,160
the temperature at landing time is

177
00:07:57,350 --> 00:07:54,160
expected to be about 64 degrees

178
00:08:00,150 --> 00:07:57,360
fahrenheit and ideal saturday spring

179
00:08:07,110 --> 00:08:00,160
morning for the homecoming of rubens

180
00:08:12,790 --> 00:08:09,589
again the russian search and recovery

181
00:08:14,309 --> 00:08:12,800
forces are ready to go from the jazz cuz

182
00:08:15,270 --> 00:08:14,319
gone airport

183
00:08:16,230 --> 00:08:15,280
the

184
00:08:18,070 --> 00:08:16,240
various

185
00:08:21,749 --> 00:08:18,080
recovery team members that includes

186
00:08:24,390 --> 00:08:21,759
embedded nasa personnel are already on

187
00:08:26,469 --> 00:08:24,400
their respective helicopters

188
00:08:28,550 --> 00:08:26,479
at the time of the deorbit burn rotors

189
00:08:31,510 --> 00:08:28,560
will be spinning and the helicopters

190
00:08:33,509 --> 00:08:31,520
will set off for about a 35 minute

191
00:08:36,389 --> 00:08:33,519
helicopter ride from jessica's gone to

192
00:08:37,750 --> 00:08:36,399
the landing zone some 91 miles to the

193
00:08:40,310 --> 00:08:37,760
southeast

194
00:08:43,029 --> 00:08:40,320
they will arrive in a sequential fashion

195
00:08:45,590 --> 00:08:43,039
will begin to circle in a racetrack

196
00:08:48,150 --> 00:08:45,600
fashion around the landing zone waiting

197
00:08:49,430 --> 00:08:48,160
uh for the arrival of the soyuz under

198
00:08:51,990 --> 00:08:49,440
its shoots

199
00:08:55,030 --> 00:08:52,000
after touchdown those helicopters will

200
00:08:56,389 --> 00:08:55,040
land very quickly in a sequential

201
00:08:58,310 --> 00:08:56,399
fashion again

202
00:09:01,030 --> 00:08:58,320
the first of the helicopters will be

203
00:09:04,310 --> 00:09:01,040
down to erect an inflatable orange

204
00:09:06,150 --> 00:09:04,320
medical tent near the capsule to which

205
00:09:07,750 --> 00:09:06,160
the three crew members will be carried

206
00:09:10,389 --> 00:09:07,760
in their chairs

207
00:09:12,389 --> 00:09:10,399
once they are extracted from the soyuz

208
00:09:14,630 --> 00:09:12,399
and have a chance to sit in those chairs

209
00:09:16,870 --> 00:09:14,640
for a few minutes to get their land legs

210
00:09:19,190 --> 00:09:16,880
back again they'll be carried in those

211
00:09:21,190 --> 00:09:19,200
chairs into the medical tent where

212
00:09:23,110 --> 00:09:21,200
they'll be helped out of their circle

213
00:09:24,790 --> 00:09:23,120
launch and entry suits they'll get into

214
00:09:27,829 --> 00:09:24,800
more comfortable clothing they'll

215
00:09:30,150 --> 00:09:27,839
undergo a series of medical tests before

216
00:09:32,870 --> 00:09:30,160
boarding three helicopters one for each

217
00:09:33,829 --> 00:09:32,880
crew member for a two-hour 15-minute

218
00:09:35,269 --> 00:09:33,839
flight

219
00:09:37,670 --> 00:09:35,279
back to

220
00:09:40,949 --> 00:09:37,680
karaganda kazakhstan

221
00:09:43,350 --> 00:09:40,959
which was the initial staging city for

222
00:09:46,150 --> 00:09:43,360
tonight's landing operations in

223
00:09:48,470 --> 00:09:46,160
karaganda is a nasa jet

224
00:09:50,630 --> 00:09:48,480
and gagarin cosmonaut training center

225
00:09:52,550 --> 00:09:50,640
aircraft those uh

226
00:09:54,389 --> 00:09:52,560
two aircraft will be waiting for the

227
00:09:56,870 --> 00:09:54,399
arrival of the crew members who will

228
00:09:58,630 --> 00:09:56,880
split up at that point with kate rubins

229
00:09:59,829 --> 00:09:58,640
boarding the nasa jet for a flight back

230
00:10:02,550 --> 00:09:59,839
to houston

231
00:10:04,550 --> 00:10:02,560
and the two cosmonauts boarding their

232
00:10:06,710 --> 00:10:04,560
aircraft for a flight back to their

233
00:10:36,389 --> 00:10:06,720
training base in star city russia

234
00:10:42,310 --> 00:10:38,630
two uh milestones uh following the

235
00:10:44,630 --> 00:10:42,320
deorbit burn and you will be hearing uh

236
00:10:46,550 --> 00:10:44,640
soyuz commander sergey rizhikov through

237
00:10:48,790 --> 00:10:46,560
an interpreter calling out

238
00:10:51,990 --> 00:10:48,800
the duration of the burn and tank

239
00:10:55,269 --> 00:10:52,000
pressures uh and the uh delta v or the

240
00:10:57,670 --> 00:10:55,279
change in velocity as the burn continues

241
00:10:58,829 --> 00:10:57,680
for the duration of its four minutes and

242
00:11:00,550 --> 00:10:58,839
39

243
00:11:02,630 --> 00:11:00,560
seconds

244
00:11:04,710 --> 00:11:02,640
once the burn is completed the upper

245
00:11:06,870 --> 00:11:04,720
most section of the three section soyuz

246
00:11:09,990 --> 00:11:06,880
spacecraft the orbital module will be

247
00:11:12,069 --> 00:11:10,000
depressurized about 10 seconds after the

248
00:11:14,870 --> 00:11:12,079
completion of the burn that will set the

249
00:11:17,670 --> 00:11:14,880
stage for its pyrotechnic separation

250
00:11:18,949 --> 00:11:17,680
from the rest of the soyuz vehicle

251
00:11:20,790 --> 00:11:18,959
once

252
00:11:23,190 --> 00:11:20,800
we have completed the burn about 28

253
00:11:25,670 --> 00:11:23,200
minutes after the deorbit burn prior to

254
00:11:27,190 --> 00:11:25,680
the entrance of the descent module with

255
00:11:29,269 --> 00:11:27,200
the three crew members back into the

256
00:11:31,269 --> 00:11:29,279
earth's atmosphere

257
00:11:33,829 --> 00:11:31,279
once the soyuz has moved to a distance

258
00:11:36,069 --> 00:11:33,839
of about 120 kilometers away from the

259
00:11:39,350 --> 00:11:36,079
international space station we are

260
00:11:42,470 --> 00:11:39,360
expecting vhf voice communications to

261
00:11:44,630 --> 00:11:42,480
become ratty and perhaps unavailable

262
00:11:47,030 --> 00:11:44,640
because of the distance involved in the

263
00:11:48,870 --> 00:11:47,040
geometry between the antennas on the

264
00:11:50,790 --> 00:11:48,880
soyuz spacecraft and the international

265
00:11:53,030 --> 00:11:50,800
space station

266
00:11:55,350 --> 00:11:53,040
it will be

267
00:11:57,430 --> 00:11:55,360
sometimes we get lucky and the

268
00:11:59,590 --> 00:11:57,440
communications hang in there sometimes

269
00:12:02,870 --> 00:11:59,600
not so much so we'll see what happens

270
00:12:05,269 --> 00:12:02,880
this evening but once the soyuz uh moves

271
00:12:08,150 --> 00:12:05,279
toward the vicinity of the landing site

272
00:12:12,069 --> 00:12:08,160
there is a russian antonov

273
00:12:15,110 --> 00:12:12,079
26 space fixed-wing aircraft that

274
00:12:16,069 --> 00:12:15,120
operates as a flying command and control

275
00:12:18,790 --> 00:12:16,079
center

276
00:12:20,790 --> 00:12:18,800
through which uh voice and data will be

277
00:12:22,550 --> 00:12:20,800
relayed back to russian flight

278
00:12:25,030 --> 00:12:22,560
controllers at the russian mission

279
00:12:26,790 --> 00:12:25,040
control center outside of moscow

280
00:12:27,990 --> 00:12:26,800
so we'll be standing by to see whether

281
00:12:30,069 --> 00:12:28,000
or not

282
00:12:32,389 --> 00:12:30,079
we hang in there with communications all

283
00:12:34,629 --> 00:12:32,399
the way down or lose communications

284
00:12:36,550 --> 00:12:34,639
don't be surprised if we go

285
00:12:38,870 --> 00:12:36,560
with a loss of signal for a period of

286
00:12:41,350 --> 00:12:38,880
time and then reacquire communications

287
00:12:54,310 --> 00:12:41,360
with the soyuz as it approaches the

288
00:12:57,910 --> 00:12:55,990
as we've mentioned in our earlier

289
00:12:59,910 --> 00:12:57,920
broadcast tonight this is an

290
00:13:02,310 --> 00:12:59,920
unprecedented period

291
00:13:05,509 --> 00:13:02,320
of human spaceflight activity at the

292
00:13:08,230 --> 00:13:05,519
international space station

293
00:13:10,310 --> 00:13:08,240
with 14 astronauts and cosmonauts coming

294
00:13:12,389 --> 00:13:10,320
and going from the outpost in four

295
00:13:14,629 --> 00:13:12,399
different spacecraft over a three-week

296
00:13:17,509 --> 00:13:14,639
period

297
00:13:20,470 --> 00:13:17,519
this uh landing tonight uh

298
00:13:22,710 --> 00:13:20,480
is the second of a four act series

299
00:13:25,430 --> 00:13:22,720
that will continue next week at the

300
00:13:27,350 --> 00:13:25,440
kennedy space center with the schedule

301
00:13:29,509 --> 00:13:27,360
launch next thursday

302
00:13:31,670 --> 00:13:29,519
on a spacex dragon

303
00:13:34,710 --> 00:13:31,680
vehicle the endeavor

304
00:13:37,509 --> 00:13:34,720
of shane kimbrough megan mcarthur haki

hoshide and tomah pesquet

306
00:13:43,189 --> 00:13:40,480
as that multinational crew launches from

307
00:13:45,110 --> 00:13:43,199
launch pad 39a at the cape

308
00:13:47,269 --> 00:13:45,120
to rendezvous and dock to the

309
00:13:49,509 --> 00:13:47,279
international space station

310
00:13:52,870 --> 00:13:49,519
to expand of the station's population

311
00:13:55,509 --> 00:13:52,880
from its current uh seven person crew

312
00:13:58,310 --> 00:13:55,519
to an 11 person crew

313
00:13:59,269 --> 00:13:58,320
for a period of time a short period of

314
00:14:02,470 --> 00:13:59,279
time

315
00:14:04,790 --> 00:14:02,480
until the crew one astronauts who

316
00:14:07,269 --> 00:14:04,800
launched back in november

317
00:14:09,269 --> 00:14:07,279

soichi niguchi

319
00:14:12,790 --> 00:14:11,440
and

320
00:14:14,389 --> 00:14:12,800
shannon walker who's the current

321
00:14:15,509 --> 00:14:14,399
commander of the international space

322
00:14:17,670 --> 00:14:15,519
station

323
00:14:19,590 --> 00:14:17,680
until they return their their scheduled

324
00:14:25,910 --> 00:14:19,600
undocking and splashdown is scheduled

325
00:14:29,590 --> 00:14:27,670
so a busy time at the international

326
00:14:31,670 --> 00:14:29,600
space station air traffic control

327
00:14:34,870 --> 00:14:31,680
definitely uh

328
00:14:38,230 --> 00:14:34,880
is uh the uh prevailing activity

329
00:14:40,389 --> 00:14:38,240
for uh not only the station

330
00:14:42,829 --> 00:14:40,399
astronauts and cosmonauts but for uh

331
00:14:45,430 --> 00:14:42,839
program officials and the international

332
00:14:48,389 --> 00:14:45,440
partnership as they make their way

333
00:14:50,710 --> 00:14:48,399
methodically step by step to ensure the

334
00:14:53,670 --> 00:14:50,720
safe launch and landing and return to

335
00:14:56,470 --> 00:14:53,680
earth of all of these crew members in

336
00:15:13,590 --> 00:14:56,480
the continuing permanent human occupancy

337
00:15:16,870 --> 00:15:15,430

expected this is a nominal uh occurrence

807
00:56:58,150 --> 00:56:55,119

the next major event some three minutes

824
00:59:50,710 --> 00:59:48,480
from now when the vehicle enters the

earth's atmosphere at an altitude of 100

826
01:00:01,510 --> 00:59:58,549
once the soyuz approaches the landing

827
01:00:02,630 --> 01:00:01,520
site some 15 minutes before touchdown

828
01:00:05,750 --> 01:00:02,640
there is a

829
01:00:07,910 --> 01:00:05,760
intricate parachute deployment sequence

830
01:00:09,510 --> 01:00:07,920
that is triggered by a barometric

831
01:00:11,910 --> 01:00:09,520
pressure sensor

832
01:00:13,430 --> 01:00:11,920
when the vehicle is about 41 000 feet

833
01:00:15,670 --> 01:00:13,440
above the ground

834
01:00:18,069 --> 01:00:15,680
at that point the main parachute covers

835
01:00:19,510 --> 01:00:18,079
first jettison by pyrotechnic devices

836
01:00:21,990 --> 01:00:19,520
and springs

837
01:00:22,950 --> 01:00:22,000
this will pull out a pair of extraction

838
01:00:25,109 --> 01:00:22,960
chutes

839
01:00:26,630 --> 01:00:25,119
which in turns pull which in turn pulls

840
01:00:28,549 --> 01:00:26,640
out the drogue chute

841
01:00:31,190 --> 01:00:28,559
which in turn pulls out the main

842
01:00:32,870 --> 01:00:31,200
parachute takes about 20 seconds for all

843
01:00:35,190 --> 01:00:32,880
of this to happen

844
01:00:38,549 --> 01:00:35,200
when the atmospheric pressure that is

845
01:00:40,950 --> 01:00:38,559
measured around the soyuz

846
01:00:43,430 --> 01:00:40,960
reaches the proper levels

847
01:00:44,710 --> 01:00:43,440
a barometric pressure sensor starts a

848
01:00:48,150 --> 01:00:44,720
timer that triggers most of the

849
01:00:50,710 --> 01:00:48,160
remaining events in the landing sequence

850
01:00:52,230 --> 01:00:50,720
at an altitude of about 18 000 feet off

chairs near this capsule itself

1125
01:31:36,950 --> 01:31:36,239
so that they can have an opportunity to

1126
01:31:39,270 --> 01:31:36,960
uh

1127
01:31:41,430 --> 01:31:39,280

very quickly as well just within minutes

1149
01:32:50,149 --> 01:32:48,639
of touchdown we do we are looking at

1150
01:32:52,950 --> 01:32:50,159
helicopters

1151
01:32:54,709 --> 01:32:52,960
not yet seeing tv of the spacecraft at

1152
01:32:58,070 --> 01:32:54,719
the landing site so fill us in on what

1153
01:33:02,310 --> 01:32:59,830
rob it's great to hear from you as you

1154
01:33:04,310 --> 01:33:02,320
said i'm here at the landing site there

1155
01:33:05,750 --> 01:33:04,320
are still some helicopters touching down

1156
01:33:08,629 --> 01:33:05,760
right now

1157
01:33:10,790 --> 01:33:08,639
it was an upright landing and it looks

1158
01:33:13,189 --> 01:33:10,800
like the crew has been waving to the

1159
01:33:16,470 --> 01:33:13,199
personnel outside of the capsule

1160
01:33:17,669 --> 01:33:16,480
um our helicopter the skies are as clear

1161
01:33:20,070 --> 01:33:17,679
as they can get

1162
01:33:21,990 --> 01:33:20,080
we actually got a visual of the castle

1163
01:33:23,350 --> 01:33:22,000
10 minutes before touchdown and we were

1164
01:33:25,189 --> 01:33:23,360
able to follow it

1165
01:33:27,030 --> 01:33:25,199
from that minute mark all the way down

1166
01:33:28,550 --> 01:33:27,040
to the ground we were one of the first

1167
01:33:30,470 --> 01:33:28,560
helicopters out

1168
01:33:32,310 --> 01:33:30,480
and i'm on the ground right now you're

1169
01:33:37,830 --> 01:33:32,320
putting the stand up

1170
01:33:43,270 --> 01:33:40,629
what uh what was the flight like from

1171
01:33:45,910 --> 01:33:43,280
your staging point in jessica's gone to

1172
01:33:48,629 --> 01:33:45,920
the landing side to what point did you

1173
01:33:50,709 --> 01:33:48,639
pick up the soyuz and

1174
01:33:52,149 --> 01:33:50,719
how was the touchdown could you see the

1175
01:33:54,870 --> 01:33:52,159
soft landing engines from your

1176
01:33:58,870 --> 01:33:57,030
yeah rob the skies are clear

1177
01:34:01,270 --> 01:33:58,880
the crew could not have asked for a more

1178
01:34:03,669 --> 01:34:01,280
simple ditch to touch down here and

1179
01:34:05,430 --> 01:34:03,679
breathe this fresh air here back on

1180
01:34:07,830 --> 01:34:05,440
earth for the first time

1181
01:34:10,790 --> 01:34:07,840
in 185 days again

1182
01:34:12,709 --> 01:34:10,800
about 57 degrees here clear skies we got

1183
01:34:14,629 --> 01:34:12,719
a visual of the capsule about 10 minutes

1184
01:34:16,470 --> 01:34:14,639
before it touched down

1185
01:34:18,870 --> 01:34:16,480
we were able to follow the capsule all

1186
01:34:21,270 --> 01:34:18,880
the way down to the ground the capsule

1187
01:34:23,350 --> 01:34:21,280
did have an upright landing

1188
01:34:24,390 --> 01:34:23,360
they have this stand around the castle

1189
01:34:26,310 --> 01:34:24,400
right now

1190
01:34:28,070 --> 01:34:26,320
they've opened it up and they're ready

1191
01:34:30,709 --> 01:34:28,080
to extract the crew

1192
01:34:35,669 --> 01:34:30,719
we expect that commander sergeant sergey

1193
01:34:40,229 --> 01:34:36,870
and uh

1194
01:34:41,990 --> 01:34:40,239
we should be receiving a video from the

1195
01:34:44,149 --> 01:34:42,000
landing site from the spacecraft here

1196
01:34:45,189 --> 01:34:44,159
momentarily and we now have video

1197
01:34:47,270 --> 01:34:45,199
courtney

1198
01:34:50,149 --> 01:34:47,280
as we watch

1199
01:34:53,350 --> 01:34:50,159
the search and recovery forces

1200
01:34:55,270 --> 01:34:53,360
surrounding uh the spacecraft

1201
01:34:57,910 --> 01:34:55,280
give us a play-by-play of what you're

1202
01:35:02,229 --> 01:35:00,310
yeah rob there are two personnel on top

1203
01:35:05,669 --> 01:35:02,239
of this band right now

1204
01:35:07,990 --> 01:35:05,679
they are waiting to open the castle up

1205
01:35:10,310 --> 01:35:08,000
they're actually starting to put up this

1206
01:35:12,390 --> 01:35:10,320
medical tent where the crew will go for

1207
01:35:14,550 --> 01:35:12,400
medical evaluation

1208
01:35:17,109 --> 01:35:14,560
after they are extracted and get an

1209
01:35:19,910 --> 01:35:17,119
opportunity to sit in those chairs for a

1210
01:35:22,070 --> 01:35:19,920
few minutes um so right now we're just

1211
01:35:28,950 --> 01:35:22,080
standing by for them to

1212
01:35:33,830 --> 01:35:31,189
hang in there with us uh courtney uh we

1213
01:35:36,149 --> 01:35:33,840
uh we lost the video fee we only had it

1214
01:35:38,149 --> 01:35:36,159
for a moment uh so

1215
01:35:40,229 --> 01:35:38,159
keep uh providing us with what you're

1216
01:35:42,470 --> 01:35:40,239
seeing as

1217
01:35:44,709 --> 01:35:42,480
recovery developments unfold at the

1218
01:35:46,390 --> 01:35:44,719
spacecraft

1219
01:35:48,550 --> 01:35:46,400
no problem rob they're wiping off the

1220
01:35:50,310 --> 01:35:48,560
top right now

1221
01:35:54,229 --> 01:35:50,320
again we should just be a couple seconds

1222
01:35:59,350 --> 01:35:56,790
and uh once the three crew members uh

1223
01:36:02,070 --> 01:35:59,360
are out of the spacecraft uh i assume

1224
01:36:05,270 --> 01:36:02,080
that they've put chairs up near

1225
01:36:07,590 --> 01:36:05,280
uh the uh spacecraft itself what will be

1226
01:36:10,470 --> 01:36:07,600
the scenario uh and the sequence of

1227
01:36:11,990 --> 01:36:10,480
events after that

1228
01:36:13,990 --> 01:36:12,000
yeah rob they're actually setting those

1229
01:36:15,830 --> 01:36:14,000
chairs up as we speak two of them are

1230
01:36:19,030 --> 01:36:15,840
already on the ground

1231
01:36:21,109 --> 01:36:19,040
set up um just a couple feet away from

1232
01:36:24,390 --> 01:36:21,119
the capsule itself these crew members

1233
01:36:26,390 --> 01:36:24,400
will be carried out by one

1234
01:36:27,830 --> 01:36:26,400
at that point they'll get to sit down

1235
01:36:29,430 --> 01:36:27,840
kind of catch their breath from that

1236
01:36:31,189 --> 01:36:29,440
ride down they'll get to make their

1237
01:36:32,629 --> 01:36:31,199
first call back to earth whether it's to

1238
01:36:34,470 --> 01:36:32,639
family or friends

1239
01:36:35,910 --> 01:36:34,480
get to tell them about their trip home

1240
01:36:36,709 --> 01:36:35,920
back to earth

1241
01:36:38,470 --> 01:36:36,719
and

1242
01:36:40,870 --> 01:36:38,480
they'll sit there for a few minutes get

1243
01:36:43,510 --> 01:36:40,880
a chance to

1244
01:36:45,750 --> 01:36:43,520
recuperate and from there they'll head

1245
01:36:47,270 --> 01:36:45,760
into the medical tents for further

1246
01:36:49,350 --> 01:36:47,280
medical evaluation

1247
01:36:52,870 --> 01:36:49,360
industries will get their first medical

1248
01:36:53,669 --> 01:36:52,880
evaluation as well

1249
01:36:58,629 --> 01:36:53,679
the

1250
01:37:01,669 --> 01:36:58,639
recovery forces

1251
01:37:04,390 --> 01:37:01,679
deploy the helicopters and arrive

1252
01:37:06,790 --> 01:37:04,400
at the timing that they do is always

1253
01:37:08,550 --> 01:37:06,800
very stark to me

1254
01:37:10,950 --> 01:37:08,560
give us your impressions this is the

1255
01:37:13,669 --> 01:37:10,960
first time you have been at a landing

1256
01:37:15,910 --> 01:37:13,679
give us your impressions of uh

1257
01:37:18,629 --> 01:37:15,920
how this all unfolded from your

1258
01:37:23,910 --> 01:37:20,950
yeah something to watch it on tv

1259
01:37:25,510 --> 01:37:23,920
completely another thing to be here in

1260
01:37:27,189 --> 01:37:25,520
person the second we got the visual of

1261
01:37:28,550 --> 01:37:27,199
the capsule coming down

1262
01:37:29,990 --> 01:37:28,560
about 10 minutes

1263
01:37:32,310 --> 01:37:30,000
down i just had goosebumps and those

1264
01:37:34,629 --> 01:37:32,320
goosebumps have not gone away it was so

1265
01:37:36,870 --> 01:37:34,639
incredibly exciting we were one of the

1266
01:37:38,310 --> 01:37:36,880
helicopters on the ground um and then

1267
01:37:40,629 --> 01:37:38,320
some helicopters followed us i was

1268
01:37:43,350 --> 01:37:40,639
actually able to dial in before the last

1269
01:37:45,350 --> 01:37:43,360
helicopter had touched down

1270
01:37:50,229 --> 01:37:45,360
and probably

1271
01:37:55,430 --> 01:37:53,669
keep uh keep providing us with your uh

1272
01:37:57,750 --> 01:37:55,440
with your visuals courtney we do not

1273
01:38:00,790 --> 01:37:57,760
have tv at the moment uh we're expecting

1274
01:38:02,709 --> 01:38:00,800
it shortly but uh keep us surprised as

1275
01:38:04,550 --> 01:38:02,719
to what you're seeing who is getting out

1276
01:38:06,790 --> 01:38:04,560
first and what they're doing with the

1277
01:38:08,870 --> 01:38:06,800
crew

1278
01:38:11,030 --> 01:38:08,880
yeah rob there's about four personnel on

1279
01:38:12,470 --> 01:38:11,040
top of this stand right now that goes

1280
01:38:13,750 --> 01:38:12,480
around the castle

1281
01:38:15,510 --> 01:38:13,760
that stand has a ladder for the

1282
01:38:17,590 --> 01:38:15,520
personnel to get up on and it also has a

1283
01:38:19,590 --> 01:38:17,600
slide in which they slide those crew

1284
01:38:21,350 --> 01:38:19,600
members down one by one

1285
01:38:22,790 --> 01:38:21,360
at that point the medical personnel was

1286
01:38:24,310 --> 01:38:22,800
able to carry them over to those chairs

1287
01:38:25,350 --> 01:38:24,320
we were just talking about

1288
01:38:27,030 --> 01:38:25,360
where they'll get their medical

1289
01:38:28,550 --> 01:38:27,040
evaluation be able to make those first

1290
01:38:30,629 --> 01:38:28,560
calls from earth and be able to

1291
01:38:33,510 --> 01:38:30,639
recuperate a little bit before heading

1292
01:38:34,790 --> 01:38:33,520
over to the medical tent um

1293
01:38:36,470 --> 01:38:34,800
it looks like some pictures are being

1294
01:38:37,430 --> 01:38:36,480
taken right now before they extract the

1295
01:38:39,430 --> 01:38:37,440
crew

1296
01:38:42,310 --> 01:38:39,440
but otherwise it looks like we're just

1297
01:38:45,189 --> 01:38:42,320
moments away from commander sergey

1298
01:38:49,910 --> 01:38:47,189
what is uh the timeline uh and the

1299
01:38:51,590 --> 01:38:49,920
sequence of activities after uh the crew

1300
01:38:55,990 --> 01:38:51,600
makes its way into the medical tent for

1301
01:38:59,910 --> 01:38:58,790
yeah so after um their

1302
01:39:01,910 --> 01:38:59,920
tools

1303
01:39:03,109 --> 01:39:01,920
are completely carried over to the

1304
01:39:04,709 --> 01:39:03,119
medical tent

1305
01:39:07,510 --> 01:39:04,719
which is a short distance away from

1306
01:39:09,189 --> 01:39:07,520
where we are now um those you know will

1307
01:39:10,870 --> 01:39:09,199
conduct a more in-depth medical

1308
01:39:12,629 --> 01:39:10,880
evaluation

1309
01:39:13,830 --> 01:39:12,639
the crew will also undergo a series of

1310
01:39:15,750 --> 01:39:13,840
field tests

1311
01:39:17,590 --> 01:39:15,760
hate rubens in particular will undergo a

1312
01:39:19,830 --> 01:39:17,600
test conducted by our human research

1313
01:39:22,790 --> 01:39:19,840
program called standard measures

1314
01:39:24,310 --> 01:39:22,800
and that's just a set of measures taken

1315
01:39:26,070 --> 01:39:24,320
after landing

1316
01:39:28,149 --> 01:39:26,080
to characterize the effects of living

1317
01:39:29,510 --> 01:39:28,159
and working in the microgravity

1318
01:39:31,669 --> 01:39:29,520
environment

1319
01:39:33,270 --> 01:39:31,679
once those tests are complete the crew

1320
01:39:35,189 --> 01:39:33,280
and personnel will head back to their

1321
01:39:37,350 --> 01:39:35,199
designated helicopters

1322
01:39:39,750 --> 01:39:37,360
from there they'll head to the airport

1323
01:39:41,750 --> 01:39:39,760
in caravanda where rubens will board the

1324
01:39:43,830 --> 01:39:41,760
nasa planes after houston and the

1325
01:39:46,149 --> 01:39:43,840
cosmonauts will board their aircraft to

1326
01:39:49,109 --> 01:39:46,159
return to their training base in star

1327
01:39:52,229 --> 01:39:50,790
courtney hang in there with us we're

1328
01:39:55,430 --> 01:39:52,239
going to be coming back to you here

1329
01:39:57,910 --> 01:39:55,440
momentarily just to recap

1330
01:40:00,310 --> 01:39:57,920
this is courtney beasley at the landing

1331
01:40:02,149 --> 01:40:00,320
site nasa public affairs officer

1332
01:40:03,910 --> 01:40:02,159
she wrote on one of the first

1333
01:40:05,430 --> 01:40:03,920
helicopters from

1334
01:40:06,550 --> 01:40:05,440
jez khazgun

1335
01:40:09,910 --> 01:40:06,560
earlier

1336
01:40:11,350 --> 01:40:09,920
to the landing site where the soyuz ns17

1337
01:40:15,590 --> 01:40:11,360
touched down

1338
01:40:17,990 --> 01:40:15,600
about 15 minutes ago at 11 55 pm central

1339
01:40:20,950 --> 01:40:18,000
time 10 55 a.m

1340
01:40:23,990 --> 01:40:20,960
kazakhstan time at the landing site

1341
01:40:26,950 --> 01:40:24,000
it was a perfectly normal re-entry for

1342
01:40:30,229 --> 01:40:26,960
rubens rizhikov and kud zverchkoff

1343
01:40:31,030 --> 01:40:30,239
all of the entry sequence of events

1344
01:40:32,790 --> 01:40:31,040
were

1345
01:40:34,390 --> 01:40:32,800
by the book

1346
01:40:37,270 --> 01:40:34,400
everything went

1347
01:40:39,430 --> 01:40:37,280
normally the separation of the modules

1348
01:40:41,430 --> 01:40:39,440
the deployment of the parachutes

1349
01:40:43,189 --> 01:40:41,440
and a touchdown occurring

1350
01:40:45,830 --> 01:40:43,199
actually about a minute earlier than had

1351
01:40:47,030 --> 01:40:45,840
been predicted almost a bullseye

1352
01:40:50,709 --> 01:40:47,040
touchdown

1353
01:40:52,149 --> 01:40:50,719
