Island Virginia are monitoring systems

79
00:03:10,369 --> 00:03:08,700
on the Antares rocket and once cygnus

80
00:03:12,170 --> 00:03:10,379
separates from the Antares rocket today

81
00:03:13,729 --> 00:03:12,180
and reaches its preliminary orbit

82
00:03:15,589 --> 00:03:13,739
controls of the vehicle will be handed

83
00:03:17,030 --> 00:03:15,599

by flight director Greg Whitney teams

90
00:03:34,369 --> 00:03:32,580
here are monitoring systems on the

91
00:03:36,289 --> 00:03:34,379
International Space Station ensuring all

92
00:03:38,330 --> 00:03:36,299
systems are a go for cygnus launch today

93
00:03:41,210 --> 00:03:38,340
and arrival to the International Space

94
00:03:44,149 --> 00:03:41,220
Station and so far all teams are a go

95
00:03:46,910 --> 00:03:44,159
for launch today at 501 and 5 Seconds PM

96
00:04:46,670 --> 00:03:46,920
Central Time 601 and 5 Seconds PM

97
00:04:50,689 --> 00:04:49,010
and joining us for today's launch

98
00:04:52,610 --> 00:04:50,699
broadcast from Northrop Grumman is

99
00:04:54,950 --> 00:04:52,620
Antares system engineering program

100
00:04:56,689 --> 00:04:54,960
manager Christina helona and she'll be

101
00:04:58,430 --> 00:04:56,699
walking us through some of the features

102
00:05:00,650 --> 00:04:58,440
and milestones for today's launch

103
00:05:02,210 --> 00:05:00,660
Christina the launch was moved to the

104
00:05:04,070 --> 00:05:02,220
back of the launch window today can you

105
00:05:07,249 --> 00:05:04,080
explain what the teams detected on the

106
00:05:09,650 --> 00:05:07,259
ground and how it was resolved

107
00:05:11,810 --> 00:05:09,660
hi Courtney sure so during our

108
00:05:14,150 --> 00:05:11,820
pre-launch checkouts we detected an

109
00:05:16,189 --> 00:05:14,160
anomalous reading at the pad so our

110
00:05:17,749 --> 00:05:16,199
Mid-Atlantic range today support and

111
00:05:19,969 --> 00:05:17,759
Norfolk government teams had to

112
00:05:22,310 --> 00:05:19,979
troubleshoot the issue out at the pads

113
00:05:25,670 --> 00:05:22,320
which are actually required our teams to

114
00:05:27,650 --> 00:05:25,680
physically inspect the pad so after we

115
00:05:30,469 --> 00:05:27,660
had it previously already cleared out of

116
00:05:32,510 --> 00:05:30,479
the pad for safety issues obviously so

117
00:05:34,550 --> 00:05:32,520
we had to get back out there and check

118
00:05:36,529 --> 00:05:34,560
out and make sure everything was up and

119
00:05:37,909 --> 00:05:36,539
running and everything was good and so

120
00:05:40,490 --> 00:05:37,919
that actually took a little bit longer

121
00:05:43,129 --> 00:05:40,500
than expected so it took it to sell into

122
00:05:45,469 --> 00:05:43,139
our launch window so uh everything

123
00:05:47,950 --> 00:05:45,479
looked good and we're ready to go go so

124
00:05:52,490 --> 00:05:50,629
yes and we're looking live now at the

125
00:05:54,590 --> 00:05:52,500
Antares rocket standing ready to launch

126
00:05:57,230 --> 00:05:54,600
a cygnus cargo spacecraft carrying more

127
00:05:59,029 --> 00:05:57,240
than 8 200 pounds of research crew

128
00:06:00,469 --> 00:05:59,039
Supplies and Hardware to the

129
00:06:02,510 --> 00:06:00,479
International Space Station Christina

130
00:06:06,170 --> 00:06:02,520
can you tell us more about this Antares

131
00:06:11,210 --> 00:06:08,990
sure so the Antares 230 plus vehicle

132
00:06:13,909 --> 00:06:11,220
provides substantial payload performance

133
00:06:16,010 --> 00:06:13,919
into a variety of low inclination low

134
00:06:18,590 --> 00:06:16,020
Earth and Sun to goodness orbits and

135
00:06:20,629 --> 00:06:18,600
interplanetary trajectories so our

136
00:06:22,730 --> 00:06:20,639
Ontario has actually been upgraded our

137
00:06:24,590 --> 00:06:22,740
stage run core which has a lighter

138
00:06:27,110 --> 00:06:24,600
composite structure and an optimized

139
00:06:28,969 --> 00:06:27,120
second stage mortar the upgraded stage

140
00:06:30,950 --> 00:06:28,979
one core allows the interior's engines

141
00:06:33,409 --> 00:06:30,960
to perform at full thrust throughout

142
00:06:35,330 --> 00:06:33,419
most of the first stage profile the 230

143
00:06:37,070 --> 00:06:35,340
plus vehicle also has a cargo Mass

144
00:06:38,809 --> 00:06:37,080
flexibility in which the thickness mask

145
00:06:41,689 --> 00:06:38,819
can be defined in later than 24 hours

146
00:06:43,370 --> 00:06:41,699
prior to launch the Antares 230 plus

147
00:06:45,409 --> 00:06:43,380
vehicle also has the ability to perform

148
00:06:47,210 --> 00:06:45,419
late load operations by the unique pot

149
00:06:49,430 --> 00:06:47,220
top fairing of the nose of the vehicle

150
00:06:53,330 --> 00:06:49,440
is able to remove for the late cargo

151
00:06:56,809 --> 00:06:53,340
load opening valve 8021 on my marks

152
00:06:58,909 --> 00:06:56,819
three two and the vehicle rolled out to

153
00:07:01,070 --> 00:06:58,919
the pad Friday August 6th it was then

154
00:07:02,870 --> 00:07:01,080
rotated horizontal for some late cargo

155
00:07:04,670 --> 00:07:02,880
like you're saying now and then it was

156
00:07:07,550 --> 00:07:04,680
returned to its vertical position where

157
00:07:09,589 --> 00:07:07,560
it sits now yesterday so Christina can

158
00:07:11,089 --> 00:07:09,599
you walk us through the cargo late

159
00:07:12,490 --> 00:07:11,099
loading process and late load

160
00:07:15,110 --> 00:07:12,500
capabilities

161
00:07:17,150 --> 00:07:15,120
yeah sure so as I mentioned before one

162
00:07:18,890 --> 00:07:17,160
of the unique features of the series 230

163
00:07:21,050 --> 00:07:18,900
plus vehicle is that there is the

164
00:07:23,990 --> 00:07:21,060
ability to do a late cargo low 24 hours

165
00:07:25,610 --> 00:07:24,000
before launch the vehicle has a pop-top

166
00:07:27,950 --> 00:07:25,620
earring with a nose of the rocket is

167
00:07:29,749 --> 00:07:27,960
able to be removed North program has

168
00:07:31,490 --> 00:07:29,759
also built a new specialized ground

169
00:07:33,469 --> 00:07:31,500
support equipment that allows us to take

170
00:07:35,270 --> 00:07:33,479
the vehicle from vertical like you see

171
00:07:38,450 --> 00:07:35,280
it out the pad and take it back

172
00:07:41,330 --> 00:07:38,460
horizontal which we did previously

173
00:07:43,189 --> 00:07:41,340
actually last night so this allows us to

174
00:07:44,869 --> 00:07:43,199
drive what we call a mobile clean room

175
00:07:46,610 --> 00:07:44,879
right up to the people deferring where

176
00:07:48,529 --> 00:07:46,620
we are able to remove the pop top

177
00:07:51,589 --> 00:07:48,539
bearing and load times consider research

178
00:07:53,450 --> 00:07:51,599
experiments and other perishable items

179
00:07:54,950 --> 00:07:53,460
that National used to provide 24 hours

180
00:07:56,930 --> 00:07:54,960
before launch

181
00:07:58,309 --> 00:07:56,940
and so with all this talk about cargo

182
00:08:00,650 --> 00:07:58,319
the interior of the vehicle is carrying

183
00:08:02,809 --> 00:08:00,660
approximately a little over 8 200 pounds

184
00:08:04,790 --> 00:08:02,819
of cargo to the space station aboard the

185
00:08:06,890 --> 00:08:04,800
sigma spacecraft today which is actually

186
00:08:09,290 --> 00:08:06,900
our largest resupply to date so we're

187
00:08:10,969 --> 00:08:09,300
very excited about that and we are

188
00:08:13,189 --> 00:08:10,979
Northrop grammar we're we're really

189
00:08:15,710 --> 00:08:13,199
proud of our entry 230 plus rocket and

190
00:08:17,510 --> 00:08:15,720
the Cigna spacecraft and we're dedicated

191
00:08:19,189 --> 00:08:17,520
to to continue to providing the best

192
00:08:21,650 --> 00:08:19,199
value for a customer in support of the

193
00:08:23,629 --> 00:08:21,660
critical mission

194
00:08:25,309 --> 00:08:23,639
and just going off of that Antares in

195
00:08:26,930 --> 00:08:25,319
cygnus have now been part of the chain

196
00:08:28,969 --> 00:08:26,940
of resupply for the International Space

197
00:08:30,830 --> 00:08:28,979
Station for several years now how

198
00:08:33,589 --> 00:08:30,840
crucial has Northrop grumman's role been

199
00:08:35,389 --> 00:08:33,599
in contributing to that

200
00:08:37,009 --> 00:08:35,399
so Northrop Grumman has played a

201
00:08:38,810 --> 00:08:37,019
critical role in keeping the

202
00:08:41,750 --> 00:08:38,820
International Space Station operational

203
00:08:43,730 --> 00:08:41,760
since 2013 and this was apparent with

204
00:08:45,350 --> 00:08:43,740
NASA awarding our program in two

205
00:08:48,050 --> 00:08:45,360
additional commercial resupply missions

206
00:08:50,750 --> 00:08:48,060
to continue to deliver cargo is such a

207
00:08:53,509 --> 00:08:50,760
food Hardware science experiments and

208
00:08:55,490 --> 00:08:53,519
other necessities and samus's unique and

209
00:08:57,230 --> 00:08:55,500
affidability carry away large amounts of

210
00:09:00,050 --> 00:08:57,240
pressurized cargo and critical function

211
00:09:02,090 --> 00:09:00,060
for NASA and the crew aboard the ISS

212
00:09:04,070 --> 00:09:02,100
with these additional awarded flights to

213
00:09:06,650 --> 00:09:04,080
the orbiting laboratory you know nothing

214
00:09:08,449 --> 00:09:06,660
from local provides services both NASA

215
00:09:10,310 --> 00:09:08,459
and our commercial Partners to continue

216
00:09:12,650 --> 00:09:10,320
to use cignos not as just the cargo

217
00:09:14,509 --> 00:09:12,660
delivery and disposable vehicle but also

218
00:09:16,790 --> 00:09:14,519
as a platform for Science and Technology

219
00:09:19,310 --> 00:09:16,800
research and development opportunities

220
00:09:21,170 --> 00:09:19,320
nothing and since 2013 Northrop Grumman

221
00:09:23,210 --> 00:09:21,180
has been accepted and reliable partner

222
00:09:25,310 --> 00:09:23,220
to NASA and we look forward to this

223
00:09:27,650 --> 00:09:25,320
continued partnership into the future so

224
00:09:29,269 --> 00:09:27,660
when you go to activate arm enable

225
00:09:31,389 --> 00:09:29,279
and now teams have been running through

226
00:09:33,889 --> 00:09:31,399
some pre-launch Milestones today and

227
00:09:35,630 --> 00:09:33,899
they'll continue to run through those

228
00:09:38,889 --> 00:09:35,640
through launch can you tell us a little

229
00:09:40,910 --> 00:09:38,899
bit more about the fueling process

230
00:09:42,170 --> 00:09:40,920
yeah so

231
00:09:45,290 --> 00:09:42,180
um

232
00:09:48,710 --> 00:09:45,300
assets actually

233
00:09:50,509 --> 00:09:48,720
um so when Ontario will have a stage of

234
00:09:53,389 --> 00:09:50,519
recognition at q0 and we'll lift off

235
00:09:55,850 --> 00:09:53,399
shortly after the main engines will burn

236
00:09:57,769 --> 00:09:55,860
off for approximately 200 seconds and

237
00:10:00,290 --> 00:09:57,779
that will get us to main engine cutoff

238
00:10:01,970 --> 00:10:00,300
which we call Mikko and then once we get

239
00:10:04,009 --> 00:10:01,980
to Mikko we'll go into a short coach

240
00:10:06,110 --> 00:10:04,019
right before we separate stage one from

241
00:10:08,150 --> 00:10:06,120
stage two which we call the upper stack

242
00:10:10,069 --> 00:10:08,160
portion of it carries

243
00:10:12,050 --> 00:10:10,079
um we'll continue to close a little bit

244
00:10:13,490 --> 00:10:12,060
longer about 30 seconds before fairing

245
00:10:16,009 --> 00:10:13,500
separation and then we'll have an

246
00:10:18,230 --> 00:10:16,019
internal separation for the stage two

247
00:10:19,970 --> 00:10:18,240
flies out of the external upper stack so

248
00:10:22,250 --> 00:10:19,980
once stage two is completed the upper

249
00:10:23,509 --> 00:10:22,260
stack the stage two ignites for a two

250
00:10:25,670 --> 00:10:23,519
and a half minute burn that puts the

251
00:10:27,829 --> 00:10:25,680
initial close to their orbit and then

252
00:10:28,730 --> 00:10:27,839
we'll close the and then stimulus will

253
00:10:30,829 --> 00:10:28,740
close a little bit to ensure

254
00:10:32,569 --> 00:10:30,839
everything's stable and then too much

255
00:10:34,790 --> 00:10:32,579
will be released into the desired orbit

256
00:10:36,230 --> 00:10:34,800
so after your service is really so go

257
00:10:38,030 --> 00:10:36,240
through comp checks and then about an

258
00:10:39,650 --> 00:10:38,040
hour or so after we separate signals

259
00:10:41,810 --> 00:10:39,660
will release a solar arrays and be on

260
00:10:43,970 --> 00:10:41,820
its way to a National Space Station and

261
00:10:45,230 --> 00:10:43,980
I believe you at Nasa you guys also

262
00:10:46,850 --> 00:10:45,240
showed the solar wind deployment

263
00:10:48,470 --> 00:10:46,860
sometimes so you guys all might get to

264
00:10:50,329 --> 00:10:48,480
see it again later

265
00:10:52,970 --> 00:10:50,339
um but in summary it takes approximating

266
00:10:55,550 --> 00:10:52,980
this nine minutes to get to orbit so

267
00:10:57,530 --> 00:10:55,560
it's a it takes some time but it is

268
00:10:59,329 --> 00:10:57,540
pretty fast

269
00:11:00,769 --> 00:10:59,339
well Christina we're looking forward to

270
00:11:02,210 --> 00:11:00,779
welcoming cygnus aboard the

271
00:11:03,590 --> 00:11:02,220
International Space Station and of

272
00:11:05,269 --> 00:11:03,600
course we'll have you back to join us

273
00:11:08,210 --> 00:11:05,279
after launch as well so do you have any

274
00:11:10,310 --> 00:11:08,220
final words before launch today

275
00:11:12,590 --> 00:11:10,320
uh no I don't go and Terry you can go

276
00:11:14,569 --> 00:11:12,600
cygnus

277
00:11:16,370 --> 00:11:14,579
all right thanks Christina you just

278
00:11:18,650 --> 00:11:16,380
heard from Northrop Grumman

279
00:11:21,230 --> 00:11:18,660

again going up on sickness today is more

292
00:12:32,150 --> 00:12:29,820
than 8 200 pounds of research crew

293
00:12:34,970 --> 00:12:32,160
Supplies and Hardware which is cygnus's

294
00:12:38,990 --> 00:12:34,980
heaviest load to date within that cargo

295
00:12:41,750 --> 00:12:39,000
is 3078 pounds of crew supplies 2 346

296
00:12:43,810 --> 00:12:41,760

pounds of spacewalk equipment

298
00:12:50,150 --> 00:12:47,220
2286 pounds of vehicle hardware and 98

299
00:12:51,829 --> 00:12:50,160
pounds of Computer Resources cygnus will

300
00:12:53,629 --> 00:12:51,839
also carry a new mounting bracket that

301
00:12:55,670 --> 00:12:53,639
astronauts will attach to the port side

302
00:12:57,350 --> 00:12:55,680
of the station's backbone trust during a

303
00:12:59,389 --> 00:12:57,360
spacewalk planned for later this month

304
00:13:02,329 --> 00:12:59,399
the mounting bracket will enable the

305
00:13:04,670 --> 00:13:02,339
installation of the next pair of irosa

306
00:13:05,990 --> 00:13:04,680
solar arrays at a later date now let's

307
00:13:07,790 --> 00:13:06,000
take a quick look at some of the

308
00:13:10,190 --> 00:13:07,800
scientific investigations traveling to

309
00:13:11,450 --> 00:13:10,200

00:15:00,769 --> 00:14:59,160
exciting for the crew to receive new

316
00:15:02,930 --> 00:15:00,779
experiments but they'll also have some

317
00:15:04,490 --> 00:15:02,940
extra goodies arriving also flying on

318
00:15:06,650 --> 00:15:04,500
cygnus today are some treats for the

our current challenging times reflect on

381
00:19:19,549 --> 00:19:17,400
Ellison's inspirational words

382
00:19:21,110 --> 00:19:19,559
the people that make the world run whose

383
00:19:22,909 --> 00:19:21,120
names will go down in the history books

384
00:19:25,070 --> 00:19:22,919
are not the cynics the critics or the

385
00:19:27,409 --> 00:19:25,080
armchair quarterbacks they are the

386
00:19:29,510 --> 00:19:27,419
adventurists the explorers and the doers

387
00:19:31,070 --> 00:19:29,520
of the World when they see a wrong word

388
00:19:32,270 --> 00:19:31,080
problem they do something about it when

389
00:19:35,090 --> 00:19:32,280
they see it they can place in our

390
00:19:37,010 --> 00:19:35,100
knowledge they work to fill the void and

391
00:19:40,850 --> 00:19:37,020
today we will do just that

392
00:19:44,150 --> 00:19:40,860
Aloha to the SS Ellison onazuka Northrop

with The Final Countdown to launch and

400
00:20:06,169 --> 00:20:03,659
all teams are polling a go and of course

401
00:20:17,590 --> 00:20:06,179

409
00:21:02,510 --> 00:21:00,770
once we get to that launch time today

410
00:21:04,730 --> 00:21:02,520
the first thing that will occur is the

411
00:21:06,590 --> 00:21:04,740
stage one ignition and you'll see lift

412
00:21:08,330 --> 00:21:06,600
off just a few seconds after that and

413
00:21:10,310 --> 00:21:08,340
those main two engines will burn for

414
00:21:12,649 --> 00:21:10,320
about 3 minutes and 18 seconds before

415
00:21:14,810 --> 00:21:12,659
cutting off and stage one will separate

416
00:21:16,490 --> 00:21:14,820
cygnus will Coast for a bit until

417
00:21:17,990 --> 00:21:16,500
fearing separation when the external

418
00:21:20,149 --> 00:21:18,000
cover that protects the spacecraft

419
00:21:21,649 --> 00:21:20,159
during launch will separate the

420
00:21:23,750 --> 00:21:21,659
interstage adapter that connects the

421
00:21:26,510 --> 00:21:23,760
first and second stages will separate at

422
00:21:28,610 --> 00:21:26,520
about four minutes into flight and then

423
00:21:30,529 --> 00:21:28,620
stage two ignition which is that solid

424
00:21:34,029 --> 00:21:30,539

429
00:21:44,149 --> 00:21:42,299
after launch the vehicle will cost for

430
00:21:46,250 --> 00:21:44,159
two minutes before cygnus separation at

431
00:21:48,049 --> 00:21:46,260
9 minutes and 9 seconds after liftoff

432
00:21:49,370 --> 00:21:48,059

00:35:34,010 --> 00:35:31,190
and as we lose sight of the vehicle

559
00:35:35,930 --> 00:35:34,020
we're now switching to animation

560
00:35:51,650 --> 00:35:35,940
kilometers per second

561
00:35:55,970 --> 00:35:53,390
now five minutes into flight everything

562
00:35:59,650 --> 00:35:55,980
proceeding smoothly

563
00:36:21,410 --> 00:35:59,660
Steve earn continues all systems nominal

564
00:36:21,420 --> 00:36:38,510
stage two all systems are nominal

565
00:36:50,170 --> 00:36:40,609
approximately one minute the stage two

566
00:37:09,069 --> 00:36:54,050
altitude 170 kilometers all systems

567
00:37:37,430 --> 00:37:11,690
approximately 30 seconds to Stage 2

568
00:37:44,450 --> 00:37:41,569
stage 2 Burnout all systems nominal

569
00:37:46,430 --> 00:37:44,460
and Stage 2 Burnout is confirmed Coast

570
00:37:52,730 --> 00:37:46,440
for approximately two minutes till

571
00:38:06,410 --> 00:37:56,530
and teres is in orbit altitude nearly

572
00:38:29,329 --> 00:38:25,190
attitude nominal

573
00:38:31,730 --> 00:38:29,339
orient and prepare for spacecraft

574
00:38:45,770 --> 00:38:31,740
separation in a little more than one

575
00:38:45,780 --> 00:39:01,069
all subsystems nominal

576
00:39:01,079 --> 00:39:09,050
altitude 179 kilometers

577
00:39:14,030 --> 00:39:11,750
roughly 30 seconds to spacecraft

578
00:39:25,670 --> 00:39:14,040
separation

579
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:45,109
attitude nominal

580
00:39:49,490 --> 00:39:48,230
and we have spacecraft separation go

581
00:39:51,710 --> 00:39:49,500
signals

582
00:39:53,690 --> 00:39:51,720
spacecraft separation confirmed and

583
00:39:56,150 --> 00:39:53,700
cygnus has separated from the second

584
00:39:57,650 --> 00:39:56,160
stage and Northrop Grumman teams now

585
00:40:01,250 --> 00:39:57,660
celebrating the confirmation of

586
00:40:03,890 --> 00:40:01,260
spacecraft spacecraft separation

587
00:40:06,410 --> 00:40:03,900
no fly-out calls are completed copy that

588
00:40:09,829 --> 00:40:06,420
uh Ace

589
00:40:12,170 --> 00:40:09,839
okay launch Team uh let's maintain uh

590
00:40:14,690 --> 00:40:12,180
protocol on station here we're in our

591
00:40:16,910 --> 00:40:14,700
post-launch checklist uh prop 1's

592
00:40:20,089 --> 00:40:16,920
already given us a step 444 false

593
00:40:23,089 --> 00:40:20,099
purging is in progress

594
00:40:28,730 --> 00:40:23,099
and GNC one I'll wait for your call on

595
00:40:28,740 --> 00:40:32,210
and a copy and work

596
00:40:37,490 --> 00:40:34,790
and site control step 446 you can remove

597
00:40:40,970 --> 00:40:37,500
app pay gn2 flow and reconfigure ECS to

598
00:40:45,410 --> 00:40:42,650
core one LC

599
00:40:48,230 --> 00:40:45,420
step 447 direct Personnel to power off

600
00:40:50,750 --> 00:40:48,240
the MS ground equipment and Report 1.0

601
00:40:52,130 --> 00:40:50,760
when complete yeah crocodile LC we'll

602
00:40:55,130 --> 00:40:52,140
get that in work once Personnel can

603
00:41:16,069 --> 00:40:55,140
return to the Lev yep copy that and uh

604
00:41:20,510 --> 00:41:18,290
with that confirmation of successful

605
00:41:21,770 --> 00:41:20,520
orbital insertion sickness is now on its

606
00:41:23,809 --> 00:41:21,780
way to the International Space Station

607
00:41:26,030 --> 00:41:23,819
where it will arrive in two days on

608
00:41:29,150 --> 00:41:26,040
Thursday August 12th to deliver more

609
00:41:30,890 --> 00:41:29,160
than 8 200 pounds of cargo back with us

610
00:41:32,569 --> 00:41:30,900
now from Northrop Grumman is Antares

611
00:41:35,089 --> 00:41:32,579
system engineering program manager

612
00:41:37,069 --> 00:41:35,099
Christina halona Christina what will the

613
00:41:39,349 --> 00:41:37,079
Northrop Grumman teams in Dulles do here

614
00:41:42,130 --> 00:41:39,359
on the ground between now until cygnus

615
00:41:44,809 --> 00:41:42,140
arrives to the space station

616
00:41:46,670 --> 00:41:44,819
yeah so the most recruitment teams in

617
00:41:48,170 --> 00:41:46,680
Dallas has a quite a few things that

618
00:41:50,750 --> 00:41:48,180
they'll be doing

619
00:41:53,150 --> 00:41:50,760
um so they operate the Cigna space graph

620
00:41:56,150 --> 00:41:53,160
um basically now now that we have been

621
00:41:57,530 --> 00:41:56,160
released from in Terry's rocket so from

622
00:42:00,050 --> 00:41:57,540
separation

623
00:42:01,849 --> 00:42:00,060
um to reach from basically from

624
00:42:03,290 --> 00:42:01,859
separation to destructive re-entry at

625
00:42:04,790 --> 00:42:03,300
the end of the mission

626
00:42:06,109 --> 00:42:04,800
um the doors team performs various

627
00:42:08,030 --> 00:42:06,119
operations

628
00:42:10,190 --> 00:42:08,040
um including you know initial vehicle

629
00:42:12,530 --> 00:42:10,200
configuration Towing assertion orbit

630
00:42:15,470 --> 00:42:12,540
which include priming the propulsion

631
00:42:17,089 --> 00:42:15,480
system they'll also have the solar array

632
00:42:19,550 --> 00:42:17,099
deployment as well that will be

633
00:42:22,130 --> 00:42:19,560
happening here with you soon here in

634
00:42:23,809 --> 00:42:22,140
about an hour hour and a half and then

635
00:42:26,089 --> 00:42:23,819
they'll be planning and executing

636
00:42:28,210 --> 00:42:26,099
various Maneuvers to change cygnus's

637
00:42:30,829 --> 00:42:28,220
orbit to Rendezvous to the ISS so

638
00:42:33,950 --> 00:42:30,839
that'll be continually changing um

639
00:42:36,050 --> 00:42:33,960
throughout their Maneuvers to get to the

640
00:42:38,329 --> 00:42:36,060
um laboratory and then there's also

641
00:42:40,550 --> 00:42:38,339
vehicle system checkout so will continue

642
00:42:43,010 --> 00:42:40,560
to monitor the spacecraft as well to

643
00:42:45,050 --> 00:42:43,020
make sure it's healthy and everything is

644
00:42:47,030 --> 00:42:45,060
looking great onto on the on the

645
00:42:48,650 --> 00:42:47,040
spacecraft and then at the end I'll

646
00:42:50,630 --> 00:42:48,660
finally perform vehicle configurations

647
00:42:53,030 --> 00:42:50,640
to perform the final Rendezvous as they

648
00:42:56,450 --> 00:42:53,040
arrive to the ISS

649
00:42:58,309 --> 00:42:56,460
a again looking forward to cygnus

650
00:43:00,230 --> 00:42:58,319
departure in November cygnus will

651
00:43:02,270 --> 00:43:00,240
perform some secondary operations can

652
00:43:05,030 --> 00:43:02,280
you go over some of those

653
00:43:07,190 --> 00:43:05,040
yeah so cygnus actually has two

654
00:43:10,490 --> 00:43:07,200
secondary mission objectives for this

655
00:43:12,430 --> 00:43:10,500
ng-16 mission after it departs from the

656
00:43:15,050 --> 00:43:12,440
International Space Station

657
00:43:18,170 --> 00:43:15,060
there's one that is a passive payload

658
00:43:20,510 --> 00:43:18,180
from NASA called crippy and it stands

659
00:43:22,550 --> 00:43:20,520
for Kentucky Kentucky re-entry probe

660
00:43:24,230 --> 00:43:22,560
experiment and the payload will be

661
00:43:26,210 --> 00:43:24,240
loaded into the pressurized volume of

662
00:43:29,030 --> 00:43:26,220
the signals with the Disposable cargo

663
00:43:31,069 --> 00:43:29,040
items and then the other payload is

664
00:43:33,650 --> 00:43:31,079
purple which is short for Prototype

665
00:43:35,510 --> 00:43:33,660
referred payload purple is a Norfolk

666
00:43:37,790 --> 00:43:35,520
women built payload and will be tested

667
00:43:41,150 --> 00:43:37,800
and calibrated on while cignus's birth

668
00:43:43,069 --> 00:43:41,160
to the ISS and uh the purple payload

669
00:43:44,870 --> 00:43:43,079
actually requires 23 days of operations

670
00:43:47,510 --> 00:43:44,880
following departure to perform data

671
00:43:49,609 --> 00:43:47,520
Collections and data downlinks so we

672
00:43:51,770 --> 00:43:49,619
still have those two missions to

673
00:43:54,170 --> 00:43:51,780
complete um after we are on birth from

674
00:43:57,829 --> 00:43:54,180
the ISS so cygnus has a lot of work of

675
00:43:59,870 --> 00:43:57,839
it and head and tell here in November

676
00:44:02,089 --> 00:43:59,880
thanks Christina again we are looking

677
00:44:03,710 --> 00:44:02,099
forward to welcoming cygnus to the

678
00:44:07,849 --> 00:44:03,720
International Space Station and thanks

679
00:44:07,859 --> 00:44:12,109
of course thank you

680
00:44:16,069 --> 00:44:14,390
and now joining us is NASA systems

681
00:44:18,530 --> 00:44:16,079
engineering integration office manager

682
00:44:20,450 --> 00:44:18,540
Jeff Aaron Jeff how important are these

683
00:44:23,210 --> 00:44:20,460
resupply missions in terms of the

684
00:44:24,890 --> 00:44:23,220
continuing resupply of this station and

685
00:44:26,270 --> 00:44:24,900
the science they deliver to the crew on

686
00:44:28,910 --> 00:44:26,280
board

687
00:44:31,010 --> 00:44:28,920
uh these uh so I guess first off hi

688
00:44:32,930 --> 00:44:31,020
Courtney but these uh commercial

689
00:44:35,150 --> 00:44:32,940
resupply missions are very important to

690
00:44:38,690 --> 00:44:35,160
continue the advancing science on board

691
00:44:40,069 --> 00:44:38,700
the station over 3 000 experiments have

692
00:44:42,530 --> 00:44:40,079
been conducted during the station's

693
00:44:45,290 --> 00:44:42,540
lifetime which we're now coming up on 21

694
00:44:47,930 --> 00:44:45,300
years of continuous human presence

695
00:44:50,329 --> 00:44:47,940
on this flight cygnus is packed with

696
00:44:52,550 --> 00:44:50,339
more than 3 700 kilos of supplies

697
00:44:53,630 --> 00:44:52,560
research technology demonstrations and

698
00:44:56,030 --> 00:44:53,640
Hardware

699
00:44:58,069 --> 00:44:56,040
in the tech demo category

700
00:45:00,589 --> 00:44:58,079
um we're really excited to add the four

701
00:45:02,510 --> 00:45:00,599
bed CO2 scrubber it's an upgraded

702
00:45:05,210 --> 00:45:02,520
version of Seadra which is our primary

703
00:45:07,430 --> 00:45:05,220
CO2 removal system on board

704
00:45:09,650 --> 00:45:07,440
and for Hardware upgrades we're equally

705
00:45:11,870 --> 00:45:09,660
excited to be flying the third irosa mod

706
00:45:16,910 --> 00:45:11,880
kit which will enable a future Solar Ray

707
00:45:21,589 --> 00:45:19,309
all right and what's ahead for the crew

708
00:45:25,490 --> 00:45:21,599
on station one cygnus arrives in terms

709
00:45:28,250 --> 00:45:25,500
of capture cargo operations and science

710
00:45:29,990 --> 00:45:28,260
so the cygnus price craft will arrive at

711
00:45:32,630 --> 00:45:30,000
space station in a couple days Thursday

712
00:45:34,309 --> 00:45:32,640
August 12th at approximately 5 10

713
00:45:36,829 --> 00:45:34,319
Central Time

714
00:45:38,690 --> 00:45:36,839
NASA astronaut Megan MacArthur will be

715
00:45:41,210 --> 00:45:38,700
primed to capture the spacecraft with

716
00:45:43,849 --> 00:45:41,220
the Canada arm 2 and she's backed up by

717
00:45:45,109 --> 00:45:43,859
Issa astronaut Tomah peskay

718
00:45:46,790 --> 00:45:45,119
the following capture the flight

719
00:45:48,349 --> 00:45:46,800
controllers in Houston will command the

720
00:45:50,510 --> 00:45:48,359
installation of cygnus on the

721
00:45:53,329 --> 00:45:50,520
earth-facing side of the unity module

722
00:45:54,290 --> 00:45:53,339
will it remain for about about three

723
00:45:56,809 --> 00:45:54,300
months

724
00:45:58,970 --> 00:45:56,819
the crew will stay busy unpacking and

725
00:46:00,950 --> 00:45:58,980
conducting these research activities

726
00:46:03,530 --> 00:46:00,960
uh with uh

727
00:46:05,630 --> 00:46:03,540
with the first cell of the first several

728
00:46:08,210 --> 00:46:05,640
days being extremely critical for

729
00:46:09,730 --> 00:46:08,220
several experiments uh the ones in

730
00:46:12,770 --> 00:46:09,740
particular are cardinal muscle

731
00:46:14,450 --> 00:46:12,780
anti-atrophy and cell gravisen

732
00:46:16,670 --> 00:46:14,460
the crew will also be preparing for a

733
00:46:19,250 --> 00:46:16,680
future spacewalk to install the mod kit

734
00:46:21,770 --> 00:46:19,260
on the P4 truss to prepare the station

735
00:46:22,970 --> 00:46:21,780
for that future Solar Ray upgrade that I

736
00:46:25,130 --> 00:46:22,980
mentioned earlier

737
00:46:27,230 --> 00:46:25,140
in addition to upgrading the ISS power

738
00:46:29,630 --> 00:46:27,240
these arrays are also helping us prove

739
00:46:31,550 --> 00:46:29,640
the solar rate technology that will be

740
00:46:34,190 --> 00:46:31,560
used on the Gateway around the Moon with

741
00:46:37,569 --> 00:46:34,200
the Artemis program so overall very very

742
00:46:41,630 --> 00:46:40,250
exciting indeed Jeff as always thanks

743
00:46:43,490 --> 00:46:41,640
for your time and thanks for joining us

00:47:31,309 --> 00:47:28,790
recapping some Milestones today the

746
00:47:32,870 --> 00:47:31,319
launch time today was moved to the back

747
00:47:34,069 --> 00:47:32,880
of the launch window after teams

748
00:47:36,170 --> 00:47:34,079
detected an apparent helium

749
00:47:38,089 --> 00:47:36,180
pressurization valve leak on the vehicle

750
00:47:40,010 --> 00:47:38,099
the issue was quickly resolved and

751
00:47:41,210 --> 00:47:40,020
cygnus lifted off from NASA's Wallops

752
00:47:43,609 --> 00:47:41,220
Flight Facility in Wallops Island

753
00:47:47,569 --> 00:47:43,619
Virginia at the Mid-Atlantic Regional

754
00:47:50,329 --> 00:47:47,579
Spaceport pad 0a on time at 501 and 5

755
00:47:52,730 --> 00:47:50,339
Seconds PM Central Time 6 01 in 5

756
00:47:53,870 --> 00:47:52,740
seconds PM eastern time to begin its

757
00:47:55,370 --> 00:47:53,880
Journey to the International Space

758
00:47:58,190 --> 00:47:55,380
Station where it will deliver more than

759
00:47:59,510 --> 00:47:58,200
8 200 pounds of research crew Supplies

760
00:48:00,829 --> 00:47:59,520
and Hardware

761
00:48:03,589 --> 00:48:00,839
at the time of launch the International

762
00:48:08,329 --> 00:48:03,599
Space Station was flying 260 statute

763
00:48:13,490 --> 00:48:10,430
Solar Ray deploy is expected to occur

764
00:48:16,130 --> 00:48:13,500
about 1 hour and 14 minutes after launch

765
00:48:17,930 --> 00:48:16,140
So within the next hour if all goes as

766
00:48:19,309 --> 00:48:17,940
planned cygnus will complete its solar

767
00:48:21,589 --> 00:48:19,319
array deployment which will take about

768
00:48:23,329 --> 00:48:21,599
30 minutes we will not be on air for

769
00:48:24,770 --> 00:48:23,339
that Milestone but once that activity is

770
00:48:29,690 --> 00:48:24,780
complete we will update the station

771
00:48:33,109 --> 00:48:31,790
with cygnus now on its way to the

772
00:48:35,150 --> 00:48:33,119
International Space Station we hope

773
00:48:36,650 --> 00:48:35,160
you'll join us back on air when cygnus

774
00:48:39,049 --> 00:48:36,660
arrives to the station in the early

775
00:48:40,609 --> 00:48:39,059
