SAID #S
>> HELLO EVERYBODY.
IT'S ANOTHER GREAT DAY IN OUR
SPACE PROGRAM AND IF EVER YOU
HAVE SEEN THE EVIDENCE OF THIS
BEING AN INTERNATIONAL PROGRAM.
YOU ARE SEEING IT TODAY, WITH
THIS CREW.
THIS IS THE ALL CREWS, THIS IS
THE MOST INTERNATIONAL THAT WE
HAVE HAD AND I THING SHOWS THE
BREADth OF THE COOPERATION
AROUND THE GLOBE.
LET'S GET ON WITH THE LAUNCH AND
LET ME BRING UP OUR ASSOCIATIVE
IT ADMINISTRATOR COLONEL BOB
CABANA.
>> THANK YOU, SURE, THIS IS
QUICK.
IT'S GREAT TO COME BACK TO
FLORIDA.
IF YOU READ THE INDIVIDUAL
RESUMES OF THE CREW, EACH IS
OUTSTANDING.
WHEN YOU PUT THEM ALL TOGETHER
IT'S AN DARNED AMAZING CREW.
EVERYTHING IS TRACKING WELL FOR
LAUNCH, WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD
TO FLIGHT RATING THE REVIEW ON
MONDAY.
ALL THE ISSUES ARE ON TRACK.
I WANT TO SEE THE GUYS OFF.
YOU HEARD ME SAY BEFORE THE ONLY
WAY I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE BETTER
IF I CAN GO BETTER, AND THAT
WOULD BE BETTER YET.
IT'S A GREAT CREW.
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU SAW IT.
MOBILE LAUNCHER IS ON THE PAD
FOR TESTING AND WE ARE GETTING
READY FOR SIERRA ARTEMUS 2, AND
THAT WILL BE AN AMAZING EFFORT
BY NASA AS WE RETURN TO THE
MOVE.
I'LL TURN TO THE K.S.C DIRECTOR,
JANET AND HEAR FROM HER.
>> GOOD AFTERNOON, IT IS ANOTHER
HOT DAY AT THE FLORIDA SPACE
PORT WE ARE EXCITED TO WELCOME
THE FOUR CREW MEMBERS HERE, THIS
IS OUR SEVENTH OPERATIONAL
MISSION TO THE INTERNATIONAL
SPACE STATION UNDER THE
COMMERCIAL CREW PROGRAM, WE HAVE
A ROB OFT MANIFEST, WE ARE
EXCITED WHEN WE STICK A HUMAN ON
THE ROOCT AND PUTTING THE THE
CREW IS A LEVEL OF EXCITEMENT.
I WANT TO THANK EVERYONE BEHIND
THE SCENES THAT HAVE BEEN
WORKING HARD AND DILIGENTLY
TOWARDS THIS MOMENT.
WHEN WE LAUNCH THE CREW THIS
COMING FRIDAY.
I WANT TO INTRODUCE YOU TO
SOMEONE WHOSE LEADERSHIP HAS
BEEN INSTRUMENTAL IN THE SUCCESS
OF THE COMMERCIAL CREW PROGRAM
AS WE RETURN HUMANS TO LOWER
ORBIT FROM AMERICAN SOIL.
SO SERVING AS A DEPUTY MANAGER
FROM HERE AT THE KENNEDY SPACE
CENTER.
LET ME JOIN AND WELCOME DANA
HUTCHISON.
[ CLAPPING ]
>> THANK YOU I'M EXCITED TO BE
HERE.
WELCOME TO THE CREW WHO JUST
ARRIVED.
IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE WE ARE ON
OUR SEVENTH ROTATIONAL ISSUE OF
SEND ASTRONAUTS TO THE
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION.
IT'S AN HONOR TO WELCOME THE
INTERNATIONAL CREW AND I
APPRECIATE THE CREW TRUSTING US
AND THE TEAM TO PROVIDE A SAFE
AND HEALTHY TRANSPORTATION
VEHICLE.
COMMERCIAL CREW IS DELIVERING ON
A PROMISE TO FIND COST EFFECTIVE
TRANSPORTATION FROM LOWER EARTH
NOR BIT.
THE CREW WILL FLY ON DRAGON
"ENDEAFER" SPACEX, SPENDING 6
MO MONTHS ON THE SPACE STATION
CONDUCTING EXPERIMENTS TO
ENHANCE OUR NOMMING IN HOW THE
BODY REACTS IN SPACE.
THE PARTNERSHIP WITH NASA ALLOWS
US DO FOCUS RESEARCH ON
EXPLORATION AND RESEARCH,
EXPANDING NASA'S ABILITY TO
EXPLORE AND INSPIRE THE WORLD.
NOW I'D LIKE TO TURN IT OVER TO
ERIC WHO HEADS THE HOUSTON
OFFICE FOR THE EUROPEAN SPACE
AGENCY.
THANK YOU.
>> THANK YOU SO MUCH DANA.
MY NAME IS ERIC VANDERWALL.
I'M THE HEAD OF THE SPACE
STATION, THE HOUSTON OFFICE.
I'M HONORED TO BE HERE TO
WELCOME THE CREW.
AS IS OFTEN SAID, IT'S GOOD TO
BE FLYING AGAIN.
THIS IS APPLICABLE TO THIS TIME.
WE CREW ON CREW-2, CREW-3 AND
CROW-4, AND HERE WE ARE ON
CREW-7.
GREAT TO SEE ANDY ABOUT TO
EMBARK ON A SECOND FLIGHT TO THE
I.S.S. THIS TIME FOR A LONG
DURATION STAY, SIX MONTH, AND
WILL BE THE FIRST EUROPEAN PILOT
ON THE CREW DRAGON VEHICLE AND
LATER WE'LL SEE HIM IN THE ROLE
OF THE I.S.S. COMMANDER ON THE
SPACE STATION.
WHEN I LOOK AT THE ASTRONAUTS, I
DON'T JUST SPEE GIFTED
INDIVIDUALS, BUT A FANTASTIC
PICTURE.
THE "ENDEAVOUR", AND THE
PARTNERSHIP WE HAVE IN THE
I.S.S.
DOING SCIENCE IS KEY FOR THE
I.S.S. PROGRAM.
AND THEY LOOK FORWARD TO THE
EXTENSION OF THE SCIENCE
COMPLIMENT, THE EXECUTION OF THE
SCIENCE COMPLIMENT OF THE HUMAN
MISSION.
THERE'LL BE MORE THAN 30
EUROPEAN EXPERIMENTS, AND THESE
WILL CONTRIBUTE TO THE
CONTINUATION OF EUROPEAN SCIENCE
AND ORBITS AND PUSH THE
BOUNDARIES OF HUMAN SPACE
EXPLORATION IN ORBIT AND BEYOND.
I WANT TO THANK THE NASA TEAM,
THE SPACEX TEAMS THAT WORKED
HARD TO GET US WHERE WE ARE
TODAY, AND IMPORTANTLY AND
ENSURE THAT WE FLY SAFELY.
I WANT TO READ A QUOTE FROM THE
FORMER US PRESIDENT AND IT GOES
AS FOLLOWS.
MANKIND IS DRAWN TO THE HEAVENS,
FOR THE SAME REASONS WE WERE
ONCE DRAWN INTO UNKNOWN LANDS
AND ACROSS THE OPEN SEA.
WE CHOOSE TO EXPLORE SPACE WAS
DOING TO IMPROVES OUR LIVES AND
LIFTS OUR NATIONAL SPIRIT.
LET US CONTINUE THIS JOURNEY.
GEORGE W. BUSH.
WITH THAT, I SAY JASMIN, ANDY,
SATOSHI, KONSTANT.
>> N I WISH YOU A GREAT JOURNEY,
GO CREW-7 AND ANDY, GO WISER.
WITH THIS I HAND OVER TO THE
I.S.S. PROGRAM MANAGER.
[ CLAPPING ]
>> GOOD AFTERNOON, THANK YOU.
I'M THE PROGRAM MANAGER.
FIRST OF ALL, ON BEHALF, I WOULD
LIKE TO APPRECIATE MY
APPRECIATION TO NASA, PRAISE AND
TO PARTICIPATE IN CREW-7 RUN
OPERATION AND PREPARATION AND
CONTINUED I.S.S. OPERATION.
IT IS OUR FOURTH YEAR SINCE
SINCE CREW SINCE IT HAS
RETURNED.
AND WE'LL SEND JAPANESE
ASTRONAUTS TO I.S.S. FOUR
CONSECUTIVE YEARS.
THIS IS A CONTINUOUS PARTNERSHIP
BETWEEN OUR INTERNATIONAL
PARTNERS WHO HAS BROUGHT THESE
REMARKABLE OPPORTUNITIES TO US.
THIS IS FIRST FLIGHT SINCE THE
GOVERNMENT EXTENDED THIS
OPERATION BEYOND 2024 AND THIS
MISSION WILL BE THE SECOND
LONG-TERM RESIDENCE AT I.S.S.
FOR THE JAPANESE RESTAURANT /*
ASTRONAUT.
HE WILL WORK OUT A VARIETY OF
MISSIONS RANGING FROM LIFE,
MATERIAL, INSPIRATION FOR FUTURE
INSPIRATION IN HUGE
ORGANIZATIONS, UTILIZING A
UNIQUE AND CONDUCTING I.S.
MISSIONS IN COLLABORATION WITH
ROSCOSMOS FROM INTERNATIONAL
PARTNERS.
I'M CONFIDENT THAT THIS PROGRESS
WILL BE - WILL LEAD TO OUR
CHANCE AND BEYOND.
I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO COMING TO
THIS LAUNCH, AND FOR CONTINUING
FOR FINAL PREPARATIONS.
SO, THAT'S THESE GUYS, SEE YOU
SIX MONTHS LATER.
THANK YOU.
[ CLAPPING ]
>> AT THIS TIME WE'LL OPEN IT UP
FOR THE CREW TO OFFER FINAL
REMARKS IN FRONT OF YOU.
WE HAVE A MULTI NATIONAL CREW,
JASMIN MOGHBELI, THE ASTRONAUT
AND COMMANDER, ANDRE.
SATOSHI, ASTRONAUT AND CREW-7
SPECIALIST.
AND COSMATIN.
IF THE CREW WOULD LIKE TO STEP
FORWARD WHEN READY TO OFFER YOUR
ROCKS.
>> THANK YOU, GOOD AFTERNOON,
YOU CAN TELL FROM THE HUGE
SMILES THAT WE ARE EXCITED TO
FINALLY BE HERE AT KENNEDY SPACE
CENTER, AND THE JOURNEY WE ARE
ABOUT TO EMBARK ON.
ONE OF THE FIRST TASKSES WE HAD
TO ACCOMPLISH AS A CREW WAS TO
DESIGN OUR MISSION PATCH.
WE HAD TO THINK ABOUT WHAT DO WE
WANT THE PATCH TO SYMBOLIZE,
WHAT WE WANT IT TO REPRESENT AND
WHAT WERE THE THINGS THAT WERE
MEANINGFUL TO US, I'D LIKE TO
TALK TO A FEW OF THE ELEMENTS OF
THE PATCH THAT I THINK ARE
SPECIAL TO US.
FIRST, IF YOU LOOK AT THE PATCH,
THE FIRST IS THE CENTRAL PART OF
IT.
THE FOCUS OF THE PATCH.
IT'S MEANT TO BE BEAUTIFUL, I AM
SURE IT'S NOT AS BEAUTIFUL AS
WHEN WE LOOK BACK FROM EARTH
FROM THE ADVANTAGE POINT OF
LOWER ORBIT.
WE WANTED IT TO REPRESENT
EVERYTHING THAT WE DO ON THIS
MISSION, WE HOPE BENEFITS THE
BEAUTIFUL HOME PLANET AND THOSE
ON IT.
NEXT THE TAIL OF THE DRAGON
RISES INTO A GOLD STAR SYMBOL
ACES THE ASCENT TO THE STARS.
IT'S DIFFICULT, REQUIRES
PERSEVERANCE.
WHO PAVED THE WAY FOR US TO BE
THERE TODAY: IN THE LAST ELEMENT
AS OTHERS MENTIONED.
ON THE RISE TO THE STAR IS
WHITE, YELLOW AND BLUE.
THE COLORS THAT MAKE UP THE FLAG
OF OUR FOUR NATIONS.
WE ARE EXTREMELY PROUD AND I
KNOW I PERSONALLY AM HUMBLED TO
BE A MEMBER OF THIS INCREDIBLE
CREW, WHERE IF YOU LOOK AT OUR
FOUR PATCHES, YOU'LL SEE A
DIFFERENT NATION'S FLAG ON EACH
ONE WE HOPE THIS RELATES WHAT WE
CAN ACCOMPLISH WHEN WE WORK
TOGETHER IN UNITY, AND COOPERATE
TOGETHER.
WE THINK THIS IS WHAT THE
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION IS
ALL ABOUT.
AND I'D LIKE TO THANK THOSE THAT
SUPPORT US, SPECIALLY OUR
FAMILIES, WITH THAT, I'D LIKE TO
AND IT OVER TO THE PILOT FOR
CREW-7, ANDRAY US, OUR COMMANDER
ON BOARD THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE
STATION.
[ CLAPPING ]
>> GOOD AFTERNOON EVERYONE, IT'S
AN HONOR TO REPRESENT THE
EUROPEAN SPACE AGENCIES AS PILOT
OF CREW 7.
AND AN HONOUR TO BE PART OF THE
INTERNATIONAL CREW.
OUR TRAINING AND PREPARATION HAS
TAKEN US AROUND THE WORLD.
I'D LIKE TO THANK NASA, I.S. A,
J.A. AND A AND ROSCOSMOS FOR
PREPARING US WELL GETTING US TO
THIS POINTED READY TO EMBARK ON
A LONG DURATION MISSION TO THE
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION.
AS SOON AS I LANDED IN SUE YUZ
IN KAZAKHSTAN AFTER MY FIRST
MISSION IN 2015 I KNEW THAT I
WANTED TO GO BACK TO IT THE
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION.
AND I'M HAPPY THE DAY IS ALMOST
HERE, IT'S AMAZING TO SEE HOW
INCREDIBLE THE SPACECRAFT WAS, I
DID NOT REALIZED UNTIL I LOOKED
OUT OF THE AIRCRAFT AND SAW THE
SOL USE RAYS.
OPENING THE HATCH, I REALIZED
AND A UNIQUE LABORATORY THAT WE,
HUMANITY HAS BUILT OVER THE PAST
20-25 YEARS.
I'M EXCITED TO GET BACK UP
THERE.
AND PARTICIPATE IN THE
GROUND-BREAKING TECHNOLOGY, WHAT
WE DO UP THERE IS FOR ALL OF US
HERE ON EARTH AND FOR MANY, MANY
YEARS IN THE FUTURE.
AND CONTINUE THE INCREDIBLE WORK
THAT WE DO.
THANK YOU.
>> HELLO.
I'M HAPPY TO BE HERE AT THE
LAUNCH AND LANDING FACILITY, IT
WAS CALLED SHUTTLE LANDING
FACILITY, IN MY PREVIOUS MISSION
IN 2011 ON THE INTERNATIONAL
SPACE STATION, I WAS FORTUNATES
TO WELCOME THE LAST SPACE
SHUTTLE MEMBERS OF THE SBS 135.
AND THIS TIME I LOOK FORWARD TO
FLYING CREW 7.
AND I AM VERY EXCITED TO WORK IN
THE OUTSTANDING INTERNATIONAL
TEAM OF NASA SPACEX.
>> SA, ROSCOSMOS AND JAXA.
AND ON BOARD THE INTERNATIONAL
SPACE STATION, USING THE SPECIAL
UNIQUE ENVIRONMENT LIKE
LONG-LASTING MICRO GRAVITY I
WOULD LIKE TO CONTRIBUTE TO
THOSE THAT MAKE LIFE ON EARTH
BETTER, FOR EXAMPLE,
ACCELERATING MEDICINE
DEVELOPMENT.
AND IN ADDITION, I'M KEEN TO
WORK ON TECHNOLOGY,
DEMONSTRATION TOWARDS THE HUMAN
EXPEDITION TO THE MOON IN THE
FUTURE.
I'D LIKE TO HAND OVER.
[ CLAPPING ]
>> GOOD AFTERNOON EVERYONE.
I'M MORE THAN EXCITED.
HARD TO SAY WHAT I FEEL.
THE TRAINING HAS BEEN INTENSEFUL
TRAVELLING THE WORLD.
ENJOYING A LOT OF LECTURES AND
EVERY DAY'S TRAINING YOU TRAIN
AGAIN AND AGAIN.
HARD TO MENTION SOON WE'LL DO
SIMILAR POSITIONS BUT IT WILL
NOT BE TRAINING.
DAYS AND EVENING WE'LL WAKE UP
WHEN WE GO TO SPACE.
I'M EXCITED REALLY.
I'M EXCITED, HONORED TO BE PART
OF THE INTERNATIONAL CREW, SO
MUCH BECAUSE IT'S THE MOST
INTERNATIONAL EVER, CAN'T MAKE
IT MORE, FOUR NATIONALITIES, AND
ASTRONAUTS AND COSMONAUTS, THEY
SAY WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE PLANET
YOU SEE THAT THERE ARE OTHERS.
AND I WANT TO CONTINUE AND TO
CONVEY THE FEELING AND EMOTION.
AND THE SUPPORT THE COOPERATION
THAT WE HAVE BEEN HAVING SO FAR
AND WE CONTINUE LIKE THAT.
I'M THANKFUL TO THE MEMBERS ON
THE GROUND AND THE CREW THAT
HAVE BEEN TRAINING SO FAR.
THANKS A LOT.
>> THANK YOU, NOW WE'LL ANSWER
UP TO THE MEDIA HERE FOR BRIEF Q
AND A.
IF YOU CAN COME UP TO THE MIKE
AND YOUR AFFILIATION AND TO
WHOLE YOUR QUESTION IS
STRUCTURED.
>> THANK YOU FOR TAKING
QUESTIONS I'M RICHARD WITH THE
"NEW YORK SENTINEL", FOR THE
ENTIRE CREW.
YOU ARE GOING UP AND BECOMING
PART OF EXPEDITION 70 WHICH WILL
BE A BUNCH OF ROOKIES, SATOSHI
IS THE ONLY LONG-TERM PERSON
FROM THE SOYUZ.
HAS ANY OF THE ROOKIES ON THE
MISSION BEEN GIVEN ADVICE ON
WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR AND
SATOSHI, ARE YOU HOLDING OUT ON
ANYTHING TO SEE IF THEY MESS UP
SO YOU CAN TELL THEM LIGHTLY HOW
TO CORRECT THAT ACTION.
THANK YOU.
>> WHAT A LOT OF VETERANS TOLD
ME, INCLUDING SOME OF MY OWN
CREW MATES, IT'S INTERESTING.
GOING THROUGH TRAINING WE DO
SIMPLE THINGS LIKE FOLD A PIECE
OF CLOTH AND I THINK OKAY, I'LL
FOLD THE CLOTH AND IT WILL TAKE
2 MINUTES.
TURNS OUT IF YOU DON'T HAVE
GRAVITY, HOW YOU POSITION
YOURSELVES - IT WILL TAKE TIME
TO LEARN HOW TO DO IN SPACE.
AND A LARGER LEVEL OF FOCUSSING
ON WHAT YOU DO EVERY DAY.
WE HAVE THINGS WE ARE DOING UP
THERE FROM CAPTURING THE
VEHICLES BS, SCIENCE EXPERIMENTS
TO PERFORMING SPACE WALKS AND
EXPERIMENTS ON OURSELVES AND
OTHER THINGS, AND TO FOCUS ON
WHAT YOU ARE DOING AT THE MOMENT
AND LASTLY NOT TO FORGET TO LOOK
OUT THE WIND.
>> FROM A PERSON'S POINT OF
VIEW, CREW MEMBERS ARE WELL
TRAINED AND PROFESSIONAL.
MICRO GRAVITY IS SPECIAL AND
UNIQUE, IT'S A NINE YORE THING,
NO -- MINOR THING.
SMALL VIS WAS AFTER IN SUGGESTS,
MOVE SLOWLY NOT ABRUPTLY, THAT
WOULD PUT YOU IN A BAD
SITUATION.
>> I'M FROM A DANISH NEWSPAPER
AND A QUESTION FOR ANDREAS
MOGENSEN.
[ SPEAKING ALTERNATE LANGUAGE ]
>>
[ SPEAKING ALTERNATE LANGUAGE ]
>>
[ SPEAKING ALTERNATE LANGUAGE ]
>>
[ SPEAKING ALTERNATE LANGUAGE ]
>> KEN KRAMER "SPACE UP CLOSE"
CONGRATULATIONS ON BEING THE
MOST INTERNATIONAL CREW AND GOOD
LUCK ON YOUR FLIGHT.
AS A SCIENTIST.
TELL US ABOUT ONE OR TWO SCIENCE
EXPERIMENTS THAT YOU WILL DO UP
THERE, AND IF ANY OF YOU WILL BE
DOING SPACE WALKS.
THANK YOU.
>> ONE OF THE INTERESTING
EXPERIMENTS I WILL BE DOING IS A
3D METAL PRINT EXPERIMENT THAT
ISSA IS LAUNCHING TO THE
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION.
3D METAL PRINT IS TECHNOLOGY
THAT COULD BE A GAME-CHANGER IN
THE FUTURE.
ON BOARD THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE
STATION, WE RECEIVE A LOT OF
CARGO VEHICLES CONTAINING
RESERVE PARTS, SPARE PARTS,
BECAUSE THINGS HAVE A TENDENCY
TO BREAKDOWN AND BE WARN OUT.
WE SPENT A LOT OF TIME REPLACING
AND REPAIRING ITEMS.
WHEN WE TRAVEL FURTHER INTO
SPACE, AS A FIRST STEP TO THE
MOON AND ONWARDS TO MARS, WE
NEED TO BE A LOT MORE
SELF-SUFFICIENT.
ONE OF THE WAYS TO DO THAT IS TO
SPRINT SPARE PARTS OR TOOLS IN
SPACE AND HOPEFULLY 3D METAL
PRINT IS A FIRST STEP TOWARDS
THAT.
>> WE HAVE TWO EXPERIMENTS IN
THE RUSSIAN SEGMENT,
PARTICULARLY BECAUSE THEY ARE
INTERESTING OR THEY ARE VERY
HARD.
INTERESTING FOR ME - THE MOST
INTERESTING IS TAKING QUAIL EGGS
AND SEEING HOW THEY DEVELOP IN
ZERO G AND GRAVITY, WE HAVE A
SPECIAL CHAMBER THAT ROTATES AND
MAINTAINS GRAVITY, SO YOU
COMPARE THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE
EGG AND WE CAN SEE IF IT'S THE
RADIATION OR THE RADIATION PLUS
AFFECTING THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE
EGG.
THE ONE THAT IS IT HARDEST, THAT
I SPENT HOURS DOING THAT IS
ULTRA SOUND EXPERIMENT WHERE ME
AND MY COLLEAGUES ARE DOING
ULTRASOUND TO EACH OTHER.
IT'S HARD.
I HAVE TO CATCH THE PARTICULAR
OREGON, AND WE DO IT MANY TIMES,
AFTER THREE DAYS, SEVEN DAYS, 2
MONTH, WE SEE HOW IT WORKS LONG
TERM.
AND FOLLOW IT HOW IT DEVELOPS
AND SEE HOW WE PREPARE OURSELVES
FOR LONG-TERM FLIGHT.
>> ONE OF THE THINGS WE CAN DO
UP THERE THAT IS INTERESTING AND
EXCITING AS SOMEONE THAT DOESN'T
HAVE A BACKGROUND AS A
SCIENTIST.
WHEN YOU LOOK AT CELL CULTURES
ON EARTH, BECAUSE WE DO HAVE THE
AFFECTS OF GRAVITY WHEN YOU DOME
A CELL CULTURE IT'S INFLUENTIAL.
IN SPACE YOU CAN GROW THE CELL
CULTURES IN A 3 DIMENSIONAL WAY
WHICH IS HOW OUR TISSUES ARE.
THAT IS SOMETHING THAT IS
INTERESTING AND HAS A LOT OF
APPLICATION FOR MEDICINE AND
SCIENCE AND INCREDIBLE TO THINK
WHO CAME UP WITH THAT.
>> I LOOK FORWARD TO PROTEIN
CRYSTALLIZATION EXPERIMENT.
WE CAN RETAIN BETTER QUALITY,
AFTER BRINGING IT BACK TO EARTH
AND ANALYZING IT, WE CAN KNOW
THE IT REACTION OF THE CRYSTALS,
IMAGINE A KEE HOLE, IMPOSING THE
DETAILED STRUCTURE OF THE
KEYHOLE USING A COMPUTER SYSTEM,
YOU CAN FIND A KEY THAT FITS TO
THE KEYHOLE.
WHICH IS A CANDIDATE FOR NEW
MEDICINE.
THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF
ACCELERATING NEW MEDICINE
DEVELOPMENT AND MAKE OUR LIFE ON
EARTH BETTER.
>> I'M JOHN MCGILL FROM WINN DOT
CONNECT AND THIS QUESTION IS FOR
THE COMMAND MOGHBEL.
>> WE TALKED IN HOUSTON, YOU
DECIDED WHETHER IT WAS A YO-YO
OR A GLIDER, HAVE YOU MADE A
DECISION.
>> DO YOU KNOW, I ENDED UP
BRINGING A DIFFERENT TOY THAT IS
ACTUALLY NEITHER OF THOSE, I
DON'T WANT TO REVEAL IT, I
BOUGHT IT AS A GIFT FOR MY CREW
MATES.
I'LL HAVE TO REVEAL IT IN SPACE.
>> I'M MELLINY FROM ISSA, A
QUESTION FOR ANDREAS MOGENSEN,
IF YOU CAN TELL US ABOUT SPECIAL
ITEMS YOU'LL BRING ON BOARD.
>> I SEE YOU BROUGHT ONE WITH
YOU, A DANISH CARTOON FIGURE IS
AN ITEM I'M BRINGING,
CHARACTERIZED BY BEING
INQUISITIVE EXPLORING THE WORLD
ON HIS SHIP WITH HIS FRIENDS.
I ARE CULTURAL ITS WITH ME FROM
DENMARK AND THE FAROE ISLANDS
AND GREEN LANDS, SORRY, AND I
WILL BE REVEALING THEM STEP BY
STEP THROUGHOUT THE MISSION.
>> THANK YOU.
>> HELLO, I'M CRAIG WITH "EARTH
SKY", AND FIRE QUESTION IS FOR
SATOSHI.
WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST DIFFERENCE
IN TRAINING COMPARED TO THE
PREVIOUS MISSION IN SOY US.
>> OKAY.
TO ME, ESSENTIALLY THE SAME, BUT
THE EMPHASIS IS MORE ON THE
THEORY OR HOW THINGS WORK, THE
SYSTEMS WORK.
AND RECORDING THE SYSTEM.
IT'S MORE ON THE SIDE.
BOTH WORK.
>> MY QUESTION IS IN JAPANESE
FOR SATOSHI FURUKAWA.
[ SPEAKING ALTERNATE LANGUAGE ]
>> LET ME TALK IN JAPANESE
BECAUSE HE ASKED IN JAPANESE.
[ SPEAKING ALTERNATE LANGUAGE ]
>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
>> WILL ROBINSON SMITH FOR SPACE
FLIGHT NOW.
MY QUESTION IS FOR JASMIN,
YOU'LL BEE JOINING WOODY AND
FRANK.
WHAT IS IT LIKE, THE TURTLE TAKE
OVER, AND WHAT ADVICE DID YOU
GET FROM CLASSMATES THAT HAVE
FLOWN AND COME BACK TO EARTH.
>> MOST PEOPLE KNOW BY THIS
POINT THE TURTLE CLERKS THE
GROUP OF CANDIDATES SELECTED IN
2017 IS CLOSE, I LIKE RAJAI'S
TURTLE TAKE OVER.
AND I'M EXCITED TO SEE FRANK AND
WOODY UP THERE, AND TO WELCOME
JOEL.
AND EVENTUALLY MATT DOMINIK AS
WELL.
WE HOPE TO CONTINUE THE TURTLE
TAKE OVER IN SPACE.
WE PASS ON SOME WORDS SAID.
BUT THE BIG THINGS ARE DON'T
FORGET TO BE IN THE MOMENT.
TO LOOK OUT THE WINDOW AND DON'T
FORGET TO TAKE THINGS ONE STEP
AT A TIME.
IT'S AN INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE
AND A LOT OF HARD WORK AT THE
SAME TIME.
THEY TRIED TO PREPARE ME FOR
THAT, AND PASS ON WORDS ON HOW
TO HANDLE BEING AWAY FROM MY
FAMILY, I'M EXCITES TO SEE THEM
ON ORBIT.
AND GREET THE OTHERS AS WELL.
>> I'M MARK STONE.
I'M KNOW THAT YOU HAVE WORKED
HARD TO GET WHERE YOU ARE, AND
FOR ALL OF YOU, IT'S THE
LIFELONG DROME TO GO ON A
MISSION LIKE THIS.
GIVEN THAT FROM A PERSONAL
STANDPOINT WHAT IS THE
HIGHLIGHT, THE PINNACLE FOR YOU.
IT'S HARD TO REST YOUR MIND,
IT'S NOT ONE, IT'S TWO.
WEIGHTLESSNESS FOR DAYS, HOURS.
WAKING UP AND KNOWING THAT YOU
THROW IT OUT.
THAT'S THE EMOTION.
LOOKING OUT AND SEEING THE
PLANET.
IT'S NOT ONE THING, IT'S TWO
THINGS, THAT'S HOW I IMAGINE IT
RIGHT NOW.
ONE OF THE BIGGEST THINGS THAT I
LOOK FORWARD TO IS LOOKING BACK
AT EARTH, IT'S A UNIQUE WAY TO
LOOK AT IT.
I DON'T KNOW THE FEELINGS OR THE
EMOTIONS.
FROM EVERY ASTRONAUT THAT
EXPERIENCES IT, IT HAS BEEN LIFE
CHANGING FOR THEM.
I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING IT FROM
THAT NEW PERSPECTIVE.
>> MY TWO CREW MATES MENTIONED
LOOKING DOWN AT THE EARTH.
I'LL MAKE A PLUG AT LOOKING OUT
AT THE UNIVERSE, THAT STRUCK ME
ON MY FIRST FLIGHT WAS SITTING
LOOKING AT THE NIGHT SKY, WHEN
WE WERE ON THE NIGHT SIDE OF THE
EARTH.
IF YOU GIVE YOUR EYES A FEW
SECONDS AND TURN OFF THE LIGHT
YOU SEE BILLIONS OF STARS AND IT
REMIND YOU HOW LARGE OUR
UNIVERSE IS AND HOW
INSIGNIFICANT WE ARE IN MANY
WAYS US AND THE EARTH IN THE COS
MARKS THAT IS EXCITING.
WHEN SOMETHING IS AS LARGE AS
THE UNIVERSE.
MUST MEAN THERE'S SO MANY
DISCOVERIES WAITING FOR US, AND
SO MANY POSSIBILITIES OUT THERE.
IT'S HARD TO DESCRIBE HOW BIG IT
LOOKS FROM THE INTERNATIONAL
SPACE STATION.
AND THAT MAKES ME EXCITED FOR
THE FUTURE.
BECAUSE I THINK EVEN THOUGH WE
HAVE BEEN EXPLORING SPACE FOR
50-60 YEARS, IN MANY WAYS, WE
HAVE JUST BEGUN AND THERE WERE
SO MANY EXCITING DISCOVERIES
WAITING FOR US.
>> FOR ME, BACK TO MICRO
GRAVITY, I BELIEVE THAT MY BODY
REMEMBERS THE MICRO GRAVITY
MODE.
HOPEFULLY MY BODY IS ACCUSTOMED
TO IT AND WORKS EFFICIENTLY.
>> THANK YOU I WISH YOU ALL
SUCCESS AND GOD SPEED.
>> THANK YOU.
I'M HUNTY.
A QUESTION FOR JASMIN, I KNOW
THIS HAPPENED BEFORE, HOW DOES
IT FEEL TO NOT ONLY FLY INTO
SPACE FOR THE FIRST TIME BUT
ALSO BEING A COMMANDER.
>> I VIEW MY ROLE AS COMMANDER,
I GET TO WORK WITH THESE THREE
INCREDIBLE GENTLEMEN.
SATOSHI HAS EXPERIENCED LONG
DURATION SPACE FLIGHT.
ANDY HAD A SPACE FLIGHT.
KONSTANTIN AND I GET TO DO THIS
FOR THE FIRST TIME.
NICE TO SHARE THAT EXPERIENCE
AND EXCITEMENT WITH.
FOR ME IT WAS AN HONOR.
I WAS EXCITED WHEN I FOUND THE
CREW WOULD BE FOUR DIFFERENT
NATIONS, IT RESONATED WITH ME
PERSONALLY.
I DIDN'T KNOW MY CREW MATES WELL
BEFORE ASSIGNED TOGETHER.
IT'S A SPECIAL BOND.
I'M HONORED TO SERVE AS A
COMMANDER, ESPECIALLY FOR MY
FIRST SPACE FLIGHT.
>> HI CREW, I'M FROM SPACE CAMP.
AND MY QUESTION IS WHAT PORTION
OF THE MISSIONS ARE YOU EXCITED
FOR, AND WHAT IS THE MOST
CHALLENGING.
>> WELL, I THINK IT'S
INTERESTING, IT'S HARD TO SAY
WHAT WILL BE THE MOMENT
CHALLENGING UNTIL WE ARE UP
THERE, SOMETHING I AM LOOKING
FORWARD TO IS GETTING TO DO A
SPACE WALK DURING THE
EXPEDITION, THAT, DURING
TRAINING HAS BEEN A CHANGING
ASPECT AND SOMETHING THAT MADE
ME FEEL SECURE WHEN I LEARNT HOW
TO WORK WITH THE SUIT, AND NOT
FIGHT IT.
SOMETHING I HOPE TO DO IS GO OUT
ON A SPACE WALK.
>> ENJOY THE RIDE.
>> THERE WE GO.
ALL THE TEEMS WE HAVE FOR --
TIMES WE HAVE FOR QUESTIONS FROM
THE MEDIA.
LAUNCH FOR CREW-7 IS TARGETED
FOR 3:49AM EASTERN ON FRIDAY,
AUGUST 25TH.
FROM THE LAUNCH CENTER.
LIVE COVERAGE 11.45 P.M. EASTERN
TIME.
