>> WE'RE SENDING UP TWO 

118
00:09:10,216 --> 00:09:13,119
DIFFERENT BACTERIA THAT ARE 

119
00:09:13,119 --> 00:09:14,954
COMMONLY FOUND IN SPACE FLIGHT 

120
00:09:14,954 --> 00:09:16,489
ENVIRONMENTS AND ARE ALSO THE 

121
00:09:16,489 --> 00:09:19,191
CAUSE OF PREVIOUS ASTRONAUT 

122
00:09:19,191 --> 00:09:20,560
INFECTIONS, AND WE'RE INTERESTED

123
00:09:20,560 --> 00:09:24,597
IN STUDYING HOW THEY INTERACT 

124
00:09:24,597 --> 00:09:28,834
WITH EACH OTHER AND HOW 

125
00:09:28,834 --> 00:09:30,636
ANTIBIOTICS AFFECT THEM IN 

126
00:09:30,636 --> 00:09:30,970
SPACE. 

127
00:09:30,970 --> 00:09:31,704
>> HOW INTERESTING.

128
00:09:31,704 --> 00:09:34,740
AND KATELYN, HOW ABOUT YOU?

129
00:09:34,740 --> 00:09:42,748
>> WE ARE STUDYING POLYMERS AND 

130
00:09:42,748 --> 00:09:44,717
PLASTICS AND HOW THEY'RE 

131
00:09:44,717 --> 00:09:45,318
AFFECTED IN SPACE. 

132
00:09:45,318 --> 00:09:46,652
>> WHY IS IT THAT YOU GUYS 

133
00:09:46,652 --> 00:09:49,288
WANTED TO HONE IN ON THAT?

134
00:09:49,288 --> 00:09:54,827
>> BACTERIAL RESISTANCE IS A 

135
00:09:54,827 --> 00:09:58,130
REAL PROBLEM HERE IN SPACE AND 

136
00:09:58,130 --> 00:09:59,065
AT HOME.

137
00:09:59,065 --> 00:10:01,901
FOR FUTURE SPACE FLIGHT, IT'S 

138
00:10:01,901 --> 00:10:03,269
IMPORTANT THAT WE KEEP 

139
00:10:03,269 --> 00:10:05,871
ASTRONAUTS HEALTHY, AND THE 

140
00:10:05,871 --> 00:10:11,477
WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION HAS 

141
00:10:11,477 --> 00:10:14,080
CHALLENGED THIS AS SOMETHING TO 

142
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:14,714
SOLVE.

143
00:10:14,714 --> 00:10:18,084
>> THIS IS ALL POSSIBLE THROUGH 

144
00:10:18,084 --> 00:10:25,591
NASAs STUDENT PAYLOAD 

145
00:10:25,591 --> 00:10:28,527

PROGRAM.

147
00:10:28,861 --> 00:10:30,763
>> I THINK IT'S AN INCREDIBLE 

148
00:10:30,763 --> 00:10:32,598
OPPORTUNITY, ONCE IN A LIFETIME.

149
00:10:32,598 --> 00:10:35,201
IT'S SUCH AN INSPIRING WAY TO

OUR GENERATION INVOLVED IN STEM 

156
00:10:48,447 --> 00:10:48,948
MOVING FORWARD. 

157
00:10:48,948 --> 00:10:50,249
>> WHAT ARE YOU HOPING TO LEARN 

158
00:10:50,249 --> 00:10:51,517
FROM EXPERIMENTS?

159
00:10:51,517 --> 00:10:52,218
>> YEAH.

160
00:10:52,218 --> 00:10:54,720
FROM OUR EXPERIMENTS, WE'RE 

161
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,789
HOPING TO LEARN WHAT ANTIBIOTICS

162
00:10:56,789 --> 00:10:59,625
ARE BEST TO USE WITH ASTRONAUTS 

163
00:10:59,625 --> 00:11:01,761
TO BEST TREAT THEIR INFECTIONS. 

164
00:11:01,761 --> 00:11:02,995
>> AND KATELYN?

165
00:11:02,995 --> 00:11:05,264
>> WE ARE LOOKING AT THE 

166
00:11:05,264 --> 00:11:06,732
COMPOUND RISK OF EXPOSING 

167
00:11:06,732 --> 00:11:12,238
YOURSELF TO BACTERIA, SO 

168
00:11:12,238 --> 00:11:17,877
APPLYING THAT TO POLYMER 

169
00:11:17,877 --> 00:11:18,611
ENVIRONMENTS AND USE THAT GO TO 

170
00:11:18,611 --> 00:11:20,780
REDUCE INFECTION -- USING THAT 

171
00:11:20,780 --> 00:11:22,882
TO REDUCE INFECTIONS. 

172
00:11:22,882 --> 00:11:25,718
>> THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE. 

173
00:11:25,718 --> 00:11:26,118
>> THANKS. 

174
00:11:26,118 --> 00:11:26,585

00:14:20,226 --> 00:14:23,195
DELIVERY OF KEYTRUDA.

240
00:14:23,195 --> 00:14:24,563
IT COULD IMPROVE THE MANUFACTURE

241
00:14:24,563 --> 00:14:31,303
AND STORAGE OF KEYTRUDA, WHICH 

242
00:14:31,303 --> 00:14:36,141

DEVELOP THE FIRST DETERGENT FOR 

263
00:15:55,254 --> 00:15:59,525
SPACE FLIGHT BECAUSE IT COSTS 

264
00:15:59,525 --> 00:16:03,162
MONEY TO SEND UP CLOTHES FOR 

265
00:16:03,162 --> 00:16:03,929

WELL.

270
00:16:12,638 --> 00:16:15,908
UNFORTUNATELY, THE ASTRONAUTS 

271
00:16:15,908 --> 00:16:20,713
CAN'T GO TO THE STORE TO GET A 

272
00:16:20,713 --> 00:16:24,249

00:21:01,693 --> 00:21:02,961
TO HAVE SOME WHITE CLOUDS 

373
00:21:02,961 --> 00:21:05,397
BUILDING AROUND THE VEHICLE.

374
00:21:05,397 --> 00:21:12,437
THAT IS CONDENSED LIQUID OXYGEN.

375
00:21:12,437 --> 00:21:16,842
NORMAL AND EXPECTED FOR US 

376
00:21:16,842 --> 00:21:19,378
AROUND THIS STAGE OF THE COUNT 

377
00:21:19,378 --> 00:21:25,017
DOWN AS WE MARCH TOWARD T ZERO. 

378
00:21:25,017 --> 00:21:31,857
>> AT T-MINUS TWO MINUTES, WE'LL

379
00:21:31,857 --> 00:21:33,325
GET THE LAST FEW CHECKS GUIDING 

380
00:21:33,325 --> 00:21:37,863
THE ROCKETS THROUGH THE LAST FEW

381
00:21:37,863 --> 00:21:40,098
SECONDS BEFORE -- ROCKET THROUGH

382
00:21:40,098 --> 00:21:42,834
THE LAST FEW SECONDS BEFORE 

383
00:21:42,834 --> 00:21:43,201
LIFTOFF. 

384
00:21:43,201 --> 00:21:45,470
>> FALCON 9s IN START-UP. 

385
00:21:45,470 --> 00:21:47,539
>> DRAGON IS IN COUNT DOWN.

386
00:21:47,539 --> 00:21:49,608
>> SO THERE ARE A COUPLE OF 

387
00:21:49,608 --> 00:21:50,942
GREAT CALLOUTS.

388
00:21:50,942 --> 00:21:52,444
BOTH SIDES ARE PRESSURIZING FOR 

389
00:21:52,444 --> 00:21:52,811
LAUNCH.

390
00:21:52,811 --> 00:21:54,613
THE WEATHER DID CLEAR EARLIER 

391
00:21:54,613 --> 00:21:57,115
AND HAS REMAINED GREEN, SO ALL 

392
00:21:57,115 --> 00:21:58,216
THINGS -- 

393
00:21:58,216 --> 00:22:01,386
>> FALCON 9 CRS-24 GO FOR 

394

CALLING GO FOR LAUNCH.

397
00:22:04,756 --> 00:22:10,128
WE'LL GET AN ALL SYSTEMS GO HERE

398
00:22:10,128 --> 00:22:25,811
IN JUST A FEW SECONDS.

399
00:22:25,811 --> 00:22:40,225
>> T-MINUS 15 SECONDS.

ZERO.

403
00:22:46,965 --> 00:22:47,332
IGNITION.

404
00:22:47,332 --> 00:22:47,733
AND LIFTOFF.

405
00:22:47,733 --> 00:22:59,644
MERRY CHRISTMAS. 

406
00:22:59,644 --> 00:23:25,637
>> STAGE ONE CHAMBER PRESSURE'S 

407
00:23:25,637 --> 00:23:27,172
NOMINAL.

408
00:23:27,172 --> 00:23:31,276
>> T-PLUS 40 SECONDS INTO 

409
00:23:31,276 --> 00:23:33,078
FLIGHT, YOU CAN SEE THEM PASSING

410
00:23:33,078 --> 00:23:35,447
THROUGH CLOUD LAYERS RIGHT NOW.

411
00:23:35,447 --> 00:23:37,549
NEXT UP IS MAX-Q.

412
00:23:37,549 --> 00:23:39,217
THIS IS WHERE THE VEHICLE WILL 

413
00:23:39,217 --> 00:23:41,987
EXPERIENCE THE HIGHEST AMOUNT OF

414
00:23:41,987 --> 00:23:44,356
AERODYNAMIC PRESSURES.

415
00:23:44,356 --> 00:23:52,964
>> FALCON 9 IS SUPERSONIC.

416
00:23:56,535 --> 00:24:01,807
MAX Q.

417
00:24:01,807 --> 00:24:05,677
>> AND THERE'S THE CALL OF MAX Q

418
00:24:05,677 --> 00:24:09,080
THROUGH THE CALL OF MAX PRESSURE

419
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,516
AS WE CONTINUE TO MAKE OUR 

420
00:24:11,516 --> 00:24:13,885
JOURNEY TO ORBIT.

421
00:24:13,885 --> 00:24:17,222
COMING UP IN ABOUT A MINUTE ARE 

422
00:24:17,222 --> 00:24:25,130
THREE EVENTS IN RAPID 

423
00:24:25,130 --> 00:24:27,199
SUCCESSION, AND SECOND ENGINE 

424
00:24:27,199 --> 00:24:36,107
START, ALSO KNOWN AS SES-1 THEN,

425
00:24:36,107 --> 00:24:36,808
STAGE SEPARATION.

426
00:24:36,808 --> 00:24:41,413
DURING THEN, THE FIRST AND 

427
00:24:41,413 --> 00:24:42,714
SECOND STAGE WILL SEPARATE FROM 

428
00:24:42,714 --> 00:24:44,583
ONE ANOTHER.

429
00:24:44,583 --> 00:24:46,785
THE FIRST STAGE WILL MAKE ITS 

430
00:24:46,785 --> 00:24:51,456
WAY BACK, AND THE SECOND STAGE 

431
00:24:51,456 --> 00:24:54,893
WILL LIGHT ITS FALCON ENGINES, 

432
00:24:54,893 --> 00:24:56,862
CONTINUING ITS WAY TO LOW EARTH 

433
00:24:56,862 --> 00:24:57,262
ORBIT.

434
00:24:57,262 --> 00:24:59,431
AGAIN, THOSE ARE GOING TO BE 

435
00:24:59,431 --> 00:25:00,465
HAPPENING IN RAPID SUCCESSION IN

436
00:25:00,465 --> 00:25:00,999
ABOUT 15 SECONDS HERE.

437
00:25:23,054 --> 00:25:23,722
>> STAGE SEPARATION CONFIRMED.

438
00:25:35,700 --> 00:25:36,134
>> IGNITION. 

439
00:25:36,134 --> 00:25:41,606
>> YOU HEARD THE CALLOUTS.

440
00:25:41,606 --> 00:25:43,375
YOU SEE IT ON SCREEN, SEPARATION

441
00:25:43,375 --> 00:25:47,078
AND IGNITION OF OUR MERLIN 

442
00:25:47,078 --> 00:25:47,746
VACUUM ENGINE.

443
00:25:47,746 --> 00:25:50,382
ON THE LEFT-HAND SIDE OF YOUR 

444
00:25:50,382 --> 00:25:52,517
SCREEN, THE FIRST STAGE IS 

445
00:25:52,517 --> 00:25:55,287
MAKING ITS WAY TO EARTH BUT IS 

446
00:25:55,287 --> 00:25:59,190
BEING ILLUMINATED BY THE SECOND 

447
00:25:59,190 --> 00:26:01,927
STAGE MERLIN VACUUM ENGINE.

448
00:26:01,927 --> 00:26:06,197
IF YOU'RE JUST JOINING OUR WEB 

449
00:26:06,197 --> 00:26:10,101
CAST, THIS IS SPACEX' 31 MISSION

450
00:26:10,101 --> 00:26:11,903
FOR 2021, THE FIFTH DRAGON 

451
00:26:11,903 --> 00:26:13,204
FLIGHT TO THE INTERNATIONAL 

452
00:26:13,204 --> 00:26:15,273
SPACE STATION THIS YEAR.

453
00:26:15,273 --> 00:26:20,879
COUPLE OF VIEWS ON YOUR SCREEN.

454
00:26:20,879 --> 00:26:25,650
ON THE RIGHT-HAND SIDE OF YOUR 

455
00:26:25,650 --> 00:26:33,458
SCREEN, THE MERLIN STAGE, AND 

456
00:26:33,458 --> 00:26:36,962
THE OTHER SECTION IS CARRYING 

457
00:26:36,962 --> 00:27:02,120
THE TREATS AND SUPPLIES FOR THE 

458
00:27:02,120 --> 00:27:05,523
ASTRONAUTS.

459
00:27:05,523 --> 00:27:06,391
TODAY'S MISSION IS GOING TO BE 

460
00:27:06,391 --> 00:27:12,664
THE DRONE SHIP JUST READ THE 

461
00:27:12,664 --> 00:27:13,765
INSTRUCTION, WHICH WILL PARK IN 

462
00:27:13,765 --> 00:27:14,232
THE ATLANTIC OCEAN.

463
00:27:20,472 --> 00:27:21,873
NEXT EVENT FOR OUR MISSION TODAY

464
00:27:21,873 --> 00:27:23,708
IS GOING TO BE THE FIRST STAGE 

465
00:27:23,708 --> 00:27:24,542
ENTRY BURN.

466
00:27:24,542 --> 00:27:27,312
IT'S GOING TO BE THE FIRST OF 

467
00:27:27,312 --> 00:27:29,948
TWO BURNS.

468
00:27:29,948 --> 00:27:32,217
THE FIRST STAGE HAPPENS.

469
00:27:32,217 --> 00:27:34,152
THE FIRST IS THE ENTRY BURN, 

470
00:27:34,152 --> 00:27:36,655
WHERE THREE OF OUR MERLIN 

471
00:27:36,655 --> 00:27:38,857
ENGINES WILL IGNITE, HELPING TO 

472
00:27:38,857 --> 00:27:43,395
SLOW THE STAGE DOWN AS IT 

473
00:27:43,395 --> 00:27:45,997
REENTERS THE UPPER PORTIONS OF 

474
00:27:45,997 --> 00:27:48,299
THE EARTH'S ATMOSPHERE.

475
00:27:48,299 --> 00:27:51,670
THE SECOND IS A SINGLE-ENGINE 

476
00:27:51,670 --> 00:27:58,176
BURN THAT ALLOWS IT TO LAND ON 

477
00:27:58,176 --> 00:27:58,576
OUR DRONE SHIP.

478
00:28:10,722 --> 00:28:14,092
AS WE WAIT FOR THAT EVENT, YOU 

479
00:28:14,092 --> 00:28:17,395
MIGHT BE INTERESTED TO KNOW THAT

480
00:28:17,395 --> 00:28:19,798
IN ORDER TO GET INTO SPACE, A 

481
00:28:19,798 --> 00:28:24,903
ROCKET HAS TO DO MORE THAN GO 

482
00:28:24,903 --> 00:28:28,173
STRAIGHT UP REALLY FAST.

483
00:28:28,173 --> 00:28:36,347
IT ACTUALLY HAS TO GO SIDEWAYS, 

484
00:28:36,347 --> 00:28:38,817
AND WE'RE HEADING UP FROM THE 

485
00:28:38,817 --> 00:28:39,784
LAUNCH PAD IN WHAT WE CALL A 

486
00:28:39,784 --> 00:28:40,151
GRAVITY TURN.

487
00:28:54,499 --> 00:28:56,034
THINGS CONTINUE TO GO SMOOTHLY 

488
00:28:56,034 --> 00:29:02,974
FOR THE FIRST STAGE ENTRY BURN.

489
00:29:02,974 --> 00:29:03,742
SHOULD START IN ABOUT TEN 

490
00:29:03,742 --> 00:29:24,829
SECONDS.

491
00:29:24,829 --> 00:29:28,133
>> THREE MERLIN ENGINES HAVE 

492
00:29:28,133 --> 00:29:30,034
REIGNITED THEIR ENGINES AND ARE 

493
00:29:30,034 --> 00:29:31,469
CURRENTLY SLOWLY DOWN THIS FIRST

494
00:29:31,469 --> 00:29:31,770
STAGE.

495
00:29:31,770 --> 00:29:35,406
THIS BURN IS EXPECTED TO LAST 

496
00:29:35,406 --> 00:29:36,841
ABOUT 30 SECONDS.

497
00:29:36,841 --> 00:29:40,411
YOU CAN SEE THE VELOCITY ON THE 

498
00:29:40,411 --> 00:29:42,647
BOTTOM SIDE OF YOUR SCREEN.

499
00:29:42,647 --> 00:29:51,256
WE'RE STARTING TO DECREASE 

500
00:29:51,256 --> 00:29:51,923
SIGNIFICANTLY.

501
00:29:51,923 --> 00:29:58,830
THAT IS BURN ONE OF TWO 

502
00:29:58,830 --> 00:29:59,364
COMPLETE.

503
00:29:59,364 --> 00:30:10,375
IT'S ABOUT 60 SECONDS AWAY FROM 

504
00:30:10,375 --> 00:30:14,345
LANDING THE VEHICLE, AND WE'RE 

505
00:30:14,345 --> 00:30:15,346
TRAVELING A SIGNIFICANT VELOCITY

506
00:30:15,346 --> 00:30:16,114
RIGHT NOW.

507
00:30:16,114 --> 00:30:19,584
THIS REALLY PUTS INTO 

508
00:30:19,584 --> 00:30:21,553
PERSPECTIVE THE DEACCELERATION 

509
00:30:21,553 --> 00:30:23,087
THE FIRST STAGE WILL EXPERIENCE.

510
00:30:23,087 --> 00:30:28,126
IN LESS THAN THE SPAN OF A 

511
00:30:28,126 --> 00:30:29,994
MINUTE, IT WILL REDUCE FROM 

512
00:30:29,994 --> 00:30:33,097
TWICE THE SPEED OF A JET TO WHEN

513
00:30:33,097 --> 00:30:36,000
THE ROCKET LANDS.

514
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,436
>> FIRST STAGE LANDING BURN IS 

515
00:30:38,436 --> 00:30:40,605
EXPECTED TO START HERE IN ABOUT 

516
00:30:40,605 --> 00:30:43,374
20 SECONDS AND LAST ABOUT 25 

517
00:30:43,374 --> 00:30:45,410
SECONDS, SO DURING THE DURATION 

518
00:30:45,410 --> 00:30:53,251
OF THAT BURN, WE ARE GOING TO BE

519
00:30:53,251 --> 00:30:53,985
LISTENING FOR THE ANNOUNCEMENT 

520
00:30:53,985 --> 00:31:01,526
OF SECO, SECOND ENGINE CUT-OFF 

521
00:31:01,526 --> 00:31:02,894
BURN, AND IT WILL COAST FOR A 

522
00:31:02,894 --> 00:31:03,595
FEW MINUTES BEFORE SEPARATING 

523
00:31:03,595 --> 00:31:03,862
DRAGON.

524
00:31:09,968 --> 00:31:13,238
>> STAGE TWO FTS IS SAFE. 

525
00:31:13,238 --> 00:31:14,939
>> WE DON'T HAVE VIEWS RIGHT 

526
00:31:14,939 --> 00:31:18,009
NOW -- LOOKS LIKE WE GOT IT 

527
00:31:18,009 --> 00:31:18,843
BACK, AND THE BURN IS CURRENTLY 

528
00:31:18,843 --> 00:31:19,143
UNDERWAY.

529
00:31:29,687 --> 00:31:30,288
>> STAGE ONE LANDING IS 

530
00:31:30,288 --> 00:31:30,588
CONFIRMED.

531
00:31:34,592 --> 00:31:37,428
>> SO HOPEFULLY WE GET SOME 

532
00:31:37,428 --> 00:31:37,762
VISUALS.

533
00:31:37,762 --> 00:31:39,330
THERE IT IS.

534
00:31:39,330 --> 00:31:41,165
SO THIS IS THE FIRST LAND WILL 

535
00:31:41,165 --> 00:31:42,967
FOR THIS PARTICULAR BOOSTER, BUT

536
00:31:42,967 --> 00:31:46,170
THE 100 SUCCESSFUL LANDING FOR 

537
00:31:46,170 --> 00:31:48,172
AN ORBITAL CLASS ROCKET.

538
00:31:48,172 --> 00:31:49,807
WHAT A WAY TO END OFF THE YEAR.

539
00:31:49,807 --> 00:31:52,076
WE ALSO HEARD THAT THE SECOND 

540
00:31:52,076 --> 00:31:56,247
ENGINE -- SORRY, THE SECOND 

541
00:31:56,247 --> 00:31:59,717
STAGE ENGINE, THE MERLIN ENGINE,

542
00:31:59,717 --> 00:32:01,185
SUCCESSFULLY SHUT OFF ITS 

543
00:32:01,185 --> 00:32:03,488
ENGINE, AND WE'RE GOING TO PAUSE

544
00:32:03,488 --> 00:32:06,424
HERE TO SEE IF WE CAN CONFIRM A 

545
00:32:06,424 --> 00:32:16,134
GOOD ORBIT OF THE SECOND STAGE.

546
00:32:16,134 --> 00:32:16,701
>> ACQUISITION SIGNAL 

547
00:32:16,701 --> 00:32:17,068
NEWFOUNDLAND.

548
00:32:18,603 --> 00:32:22,974
>> AGAIN, THIS IS A FEW OF THE 

549
00:32:22,974 --> 00:32:26,344
MERLIN VACUUM ENGINE, THE DRAGON

550
00:32:26,344 --> 00:32:27,979
CAPSULE WITH ALL OF ITS SUPPLIES

551
00:32:27,979 --> 00:32:28,746
IS ON THE OPPOSITE END OF THAT 

552
00:32:28,746 --> 00:32:29,013
ENGINE.

553
00:32:33,651 --> 00:32:35,153
AND I AM GETTING CONFIRMATION 

554
00:32:35,153 --> 00:32:37,956
THAT WE DO INSTEAD HAVE A GOOD 

555
00:32:37,956 --> 00:32:39,190
ORBIT, SO THE SECOND STAGE IS 

556
00:32:39,190 --> 00:32:40,925
GOING TO BE COASTING FOR A FEW 

557
00:32:40,925 --> 00:32:41,993
MINUTES HERE.

558
00:32:41,993 --> 00:32:44,662
THIS IS A FEW OF THE 

559
00:32:44,662 --> 00:32:47,265
UNPRESSURIZED CARGO SECTION OF 

560
00:32:47,265 --> 00:32:49,167
THE DRAGON.

561
00:32:49,167 --> 00:32:51,869
THE SECOND STAGE RIGHT NOW 

562
00:32:51,869 --> 00:32:54,906
MAKING SOME SMALL ADJUSTMENTS.

563
00:32:54,906 --> 00:32:58,009
WE SHOULD ALSO HAVE DRAGON 

564
00:32:58,009 --> 00:33:00,545
SEPARATING FROM THE TOP OF THE 

565
00:33:00,545 --> 00:33:02,880
SECOND STAGE ITSELF.

566
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:04,215
SHOULD GIVE US A NICE VIEW OF 

567
00:33:04,215 --> 00:33:07,685
THE UNPRESSURIZED SECTION OF 

568
00:33:07,685 --> 00:33:08,019
DRAGON.

569
00:33:08,019 --> 00:33:10,688
DRAGON IS GOING TO BE JOINING 

570
00:33:10,688 --> 00:33:12,857
THE CREW THREE VEHICLE ENDURANCE

571
00:33:12,857 --> 00:33:16,728
THAT IS CURRENTLY ATTACHED TO 

572
00:33:16,728 --> 00:33:17,462
THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION 

573
00:33:17,462 --> 00:33:19,163
AND IN ORBIT, AND IT'S ALWAYS 

574
00:33:19,163 --> 00:33:22,200
EXCITING TO SEE TWO DRAGONS 

575
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:22,934
DOCKED AT THE SPACE STATION AT 

576
00:33:22,934 --> 00:33:23,301
THE SAME TIME.

577
00:33:45,556 --> 00:33:47,291
>> WE'LL BE DELIVERING ABOUT 

578
00:33:47,291 --> 00:33:50,661
6500 POUNDS OF SCIENCE 

579
00:33:50,661 --> 00:33:53,297
EXPERIMENTS, SUPPLIES, AND 

580
00:33:53,297 --> 00:33:54,966
EQUIPMENT AS WELL AS SOME 

581
00:33:54,966 --> 00:33:57,235
HOLIDAY TREATS FOR THE CREW, SO 

582
00:33:57,235 --> 00:33:58,569
I'M SURE THEY'RE LOOKING FORWARD

583
00:33:58,569 --> 00:33:59,537
TO THAT.

584
00:33:59,537 --> 00:34:02,340
AGAIN, THIS IS A CARGO MISSION, 

585
00:34:02,340 --> 00:34:05,543
SO THERE IS NO CREW ABOARD THE 

586
00:34:05,543 --> 00:34:07,045
DRAGON AS PART OF TODAY'S 

587
00:34:07,045 --> 00:34:07,378
MISSION.

588
00:34:07,378 --> 00:34:09,180
IN FACT, WE WILL MODIFY THE 

589
00:34:09,180 --> 00:34:10,715
VEHICLES SLIGHTLY FOR THESE 

590
00:34:10,715 --> 00:34:12,116
TYPES OF MISSIONS, SO THERE ARE 

591
00:34:12,116 --> 00:34:16,287
NO SEATS, THERE ARE NO LIFE 

592
00:34:16,287 --> 00:34:18,056
SUPPORT SYSTEMS.

593
00:34:18,056 --> 00:34:22,160
THIS SAVES ON WEIGHT, ALLOWS US 

594
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:25,063
TO PACK MORE CARGO, AND IT SAVES

595
00:34:25,063 --> 00:34:32,003
THE DRAGON ONCE IT SPLASHES BACK

596
00:34:32,003 --> 00:34:32,670
DOWN TO EARTH IN ABOUT A MONTH.

597
00:34:43,581 --> 00:34:48,286
>> STAGE SEPARATION CONFIRMED. 

598
00:34:48,286 --> 00:34:49,687
>> AND THERE IT GOES.

599
00:34:49,687 --> 00:34:51,956
THIS CAMERA VIEW IS ON THE 

600
00:34:51,956 --> 00:34:53,191
SECOND STAGE, LOOKING AT THE 

601
00:34:53,191 --> 00:34:55,259
DRAGON'S UNPRESSURIZED CARGO 

602
00:34:55,259 --> 00:34:57,895
SECTION.

603
00:34:57,895 --> 00:34:59,864
THE DRAGON HAS ABOUT A DAY 

604
00:34:59,864 --> 00:35:01,833
BEFORE IT MAKES ITS WAY TO THE 

605
00:35:01,833 --> 00:35:03,101
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION AND 

606
00:35:03,101 --> 00:35:04,135
DOCKS.

607
00:35:04,135 --> 00:35:08,940
COMING UP IS NOSE CONE OPENING 

608
00:35:08,940 --> 00:35:10,108
SEQUENCE, BUT THAT IS GOING TO 

609
00:35:10,108 --> 00:35:19,117
DO IT FOR ME HERE IN HAWTHORNE.

610
00:35:19,117 --> 00:35:22,854
I'M GOING TO HAND IT OVER TO 

611
00:35:22,854 --> 00:35:24,789
SHANEEQUA IN MISSION CONTROL 

612
00:35:24,789 --> 00:35:27,191
HOUSTON FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL 

613
00:35:27,191 --> 00:35:27,592
MILESTONES. 

614
00:35:27,592 --> 00:35:30,495
>> RIGHT AFTER DRAGON SEPARATED,

615
00:35:30,495 --> 00:35:33,231
IT BEGAN SEVERAL SMALL CHECK 

616
00:35:33,231 --> 00:35:35,600
OUTS, INCLUDING FIRING OF THE 

617
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:36,934
DRACO THRUSTERS.

618
00:35:36,934 --> 00:35:40,171
THE NOSE CONE PROTECTS THE 

619
00:35:40,171 --> 00:35:47,011
DOCKING HARDWARE AND RENDEZVOUS 

620
00:35:47,011 --> 00:35:49,347
TRACKING EQUIPMENT.

621
00:35:49,347 --> 00:35:51,249
DRAGON WILL USE FOUR MAJOR DRACO

622
00:35:51,249 --> 00:35:53,618
THRUSTERS TO CATCH UP WITH THE 

623
00:35:53,618 --> 00:35:54,318
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION.

624
00:35:54,318 --> 00:35:56,587
ONCE OPEN, THE NOSE CONE WILL 

625
00:35:56,587 --> 00:35:59,157
STAY OPEN UNTIL THE VERY END OF 

626
00:35:59,157 --> 00:36:01,592
ITS MISSION, CLOSING RIGHT 

627
00:36:01,592 --> 00:36:04,629
BEFORE REENTRY TO PROVIDE SOME 

628
00:36:04,629 --> 00:36:06,264
ADDITIONAL PROTECTION TO THE 

629
00:36:06,264 --> 00:36:08,666
HARDWARE BEFORE REENTRY.

630
00:36:08,666 --> 00:36:11,669
SO AGAIN, WE'RE WAITING TO HERE 

631
00:36:11,669 --> 00:36:13,137
CONFIRMATION THAT -- HEAR 

632
00:36:13,137 --> 00:36:14,238

TRANSPORTATION OFFICE, PHIL 

645
00:37:57,742 --> 00:37:58,175
GINSEY.

646
00:37:58,175 --> 00:38:01,379
HI, PHIL.

647
00:38:01,379 --> 00:38:02,213
CAN YOU OUTLINE SOME OF THE 

648
00:38:02,213 --> 00:38:08,252
MAJOR MILESTONES OF CREW 24?

649
00:38:08,252 --> 00:38:10,688
>> HI, SHANEEQUA.

650
00:38:10,688 --> 00:38:15,760
FIRST, IT'S GREAT TO SEE SOME 

651
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:28,272
SHOTS THROUGH AND GET TO DOCK.

652
00:38:28,272 --> 00:38:33,244
WE'VE GOT THE TRANSFER OF TWO 

653
00:38:33,244 --> 00:38:36,514
EXTERNAL PAYLOADS FROM THE 

654
00:38:36,514 --> 00:38:41,752
DRAGON TRUNK TO THE LOCATIONS ON

655
00:38:41,752 --> 00:38:44,155
I.S.S., AND THERE'S SEVERAL 

656
00:38:44,155 --> 00:38:45,256
MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES WITH 

657
00:38:45,256 --> 00:38:46,924
HARDWARE SHOWING UP ON THIS 

658
00:38:46,924 --> 00:38:48,893
MISSION, AND THEN, WE HAVE A 

659
00:38:48,893 --> 00:38:51,295
SOFTWARE TRANSITION PLAN, SO 

660
00:38:51,295 --> 00:38:54,498
OVERALL, A LOT GOING ON DURING 

661
00:38:54,498 --> 00:38:57,201
THE 30 DAYS OR SO THIS CRS-24 IS

662
00:38:57,201 --> 00:39:01,072
ONTO ENABLE ALL OF THIS WORK. 

663
00:39:01,072 --> 00:39:03,407
>> THAT'S AWESOME.

664
00:39:03,407 --> 00:39:05,943
THANK YOU, PHIL.

665
00:39:05,943 --> 00:39:09,547
AND THESE RESUPPLY MISSIONS 

666
00:39:09,547 --> 00:39:14,385
DELIVER HARDWARE, CARGO, AND 

667
00:39:14,385 --> 00:39:17,154
OTHER CRITICAL SUPPLIES TO THE 

668
00:39:17,154 --> 00:39:17,588
SPACE STATION.

669
00:39:17,588 --> 00:39:21,258
BUT HOW CRITICAL ARE THEY TO THE

670
00:39:21,258 --> 00:39:21,659
ASTRONAUTS?

671
00:39:21,659 --> 00:39:22,727
HOW IMPORTANT IS THAT FOR US TO 

672
00:39:22,727 --> 00:39:24,462
DO ON THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE 

673
00:39:24,462 --> 00:39:25,463
STATION?

674
00:39:25,463 --> 00:39:28,232
>> YEAH, SO THESE MISSION RIGHT 

675
00:39:28,232 --> 00:39:29,667
SIDE ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL.

676
00:39:29,667 --> 00:39:31,736
THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION 

677
00:39:31,736 --> 00:39:34,472
IS OPERATING, FOR THE PURPOSE OF

678
00:39:34,472 --> 00:39:36,741
DOING RESEARCH AND TECHNOLOGY 

679
00:39:36,741 --> 00:39:40,378
DEMONSTRATION, SO WE'VE GOT OVER

680
00:39:40,378 --> 00:39:43,547
24 DIFFERENT EXPERIMENTS GOING 

681
00:39:43,547 --> 00:39:49,620
UP ON THIS, THESE 500, 600 

682
00:39:49,620 --> 00:39:52,923
EXPERIMENTS ARE KEY TO WHAT THE 

683
00:39:52,923 --> 00:39:55,493
ASTRONAUTS ARE THERE IN THE 

684
00:39:55,493 --> 00:39:56,460
FIRST PLACE.

685
00:39:56,460 --> 00:39:58,763
WHAT'S KEY IS WE GET THE RETURN 

686
00:39:58,763 --> 00:40:00,364
SCIENCE DOWN IN ABOUT A MONTH, 

687
00:40:00,364 --> 00:40:03,834
SO OPERATIONS AROUND THIS FULL 

688
00:40:03,834 --> 00:40:04,535
MISSION TIMELINE IS CRITICAL.

689
00:40:04,535 --> 00:40:06,370
YOU KNOW, IN ADDITION, WE'VE GOT

690
00:40:06,370 --> 00:40:08,005
HARDWARE GOING UP THIS YEAR 

691
00:40:08,005 --> 00:40:10,574
WHICH IS CRITICAL TO SOME OF THE

692
00:40:10,574 --> 00:40:12,143
MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES.

693
00:40:12,143 --> 00:40:15,045
WE'VE GOT HARDWARE GOING UP FOR 

694
00:40:15,045 --> 00:40:17,314
SOME OF OUR EXERCISE DEVICES, 

695
00:40:17,314 --> 00:40:21,285
AND SOME ADDITIONAL HARDWARE FOR

696
00:40:21,285 --> 00:40:23,621
OUR E.M.U.s, WHICH ARE USED FOR 

697
00:40:23,621 --> 00:40:26,957
THE SPACEWALKS WE'VE GOT, BUT 

698
00:40:26,957 --> 00:40:29,427
THERE'S ALSO UPDATES SUPPLIES 

699
00:40:29,427 --> 00:40:31,629
FOR THE CREW, CHRISTMAS DINNER 

700
00:40:31,629 --> 00:40:33,330
AND SOME CHRISTMAS GIFTS FOR THE

701
00:40:33,330 --> 00:40:42,173
CREW, WHICH IS ALWAYS A TREAT 

702
00:40:42,173 --> 00:40:42,807
FOR THE MEMBERS. 

703
00:40:42,807 --> 00:40:44,942
>> THANKS, PHIL, AND WE DID HAVE

704
00:40:44,942 --> 00:40:51,615
CONFIRMATION THAT THE NOSE CONE 

705
00:40:51,615 --> 00:40:52,049
IS DEPLOYING.

706
00:40:52,049 --> 00:40:52,850
IT IS OPENING, AND I WILL 

707
00:40:52,850 --> 00:40:54,718
CONFIRM WITH YOU ALL WHEN IT IS 

708
00:40:54,718 --> 00:40:55,486
FULLY OPEN.

709
00:40:55,486 --> 00:40:57,955
AS ALWAYS, PHIL, THIS IS A BUSY 

710
00:40:57,955 --> 00:40:59,790
TIME FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE

711
00:40:59,790 --> 00:41:02,259
STATION, WITH CREWS AND VEHICLES

712
00:41:02,259 --> 00:41:04,295
ALWAYS COMING AND GOING.

713
00:41:04,295 --> 00:41:08,866
HOW COMPLEX WILL IT BE FOR THE 

714
00:41:08,866 --> 00:41:09,633
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION AND 

715
00:41:09,633 --> 00:41:10,868
THE GLOBAL PARTNERSHIP?

716
00:41:10,868 --> 00:41:12,670
>> WE'RE CLOSING OUT WHAT'S BEEN

717
00:41:12,670 --> 00:41:15,172
A REALLY GREAT, REALLY BUSY 

718
00:41:15,172 --> 00:41:17,107
NEAR, AND NEXT YEAR LOOKS TO BE 

719
00:41:17,107 --> 00:41:17,842
NO DIFFERENT.

720
00:41:17,842 --> 00:41:19,610
IT STARTS TOMORROW WITH OUR 

721
00:41:19,610 --> 00:41:21,545
RUSSIAN PARTNERS FOLLOWING THIS 

722
00:41:21,545 --> 00:41:23,781
LAUNCH WITH AN UNDOCK OF MODULE 

723
00:41:23,781 --> 00:41:28,385
THAT'S REALLY CLEANUP FROM THEM 

724
00:41:28,385 --> 00:41:29,687
INSTALLING THEIR NOTE MODULE ON 

725
00:41:29,687 --> 00:41:32,289
THE RUSSIAN SEGMENT.

726
00:41:32,289 --> 00:41:33,090
THERE'S THREE RUSSIAN SPACEWALKS

727
00:41:33,090 --> 00:41:33,924
IN LATE JANUARY.

728
00:41:33,924 --> 00:41:35,626
WE'VE GOT SOME U.S. SPACEWALKS 

729
00:41:35,626 --> 00:41:37,428
IN FEBRUARY AND MARCH TIME 

730
00:41:37,428 --> 00:41:40,464
FRAME, AND THAT'S TO GET IT SET 

731
00:41:40,464 --> 00:41:42,500
UP FOR THE NEXT SOLAR ARRAYS 

732
00:41:42,500 --> 00:41:44,468
COMING LATER IN THE YEAR.

733
00:41:44,468 --> 00:41:46,470
WE'VE GOT OUR FIRST PRIVATE U.S.

734
00:41:46,470 --> 00:41:49,907
ASTRONAUT MISSION COMING UP, AND

735
00:41:49,907 --> 00:41:50,941
ADDITIONAL RESUPPLY MISSIONS, 

736
00:41:50,941 --> 00:41:53,110
AND THEN, WE GET BACK INTO THE 

737
00:41:53,110 --> 00:41:54,912
CREW CYCLE LAUNCHES ON THE 

738
00:41:54,912 --> 00:41:57,281
RUSSIAN AND U.S. SIDE BOTH.

739
