00:04:56,295 --> 00:04:57,563
STORED AT A CONSTANT TEMPERATURE

192
00:04:57,563 --> 00:04:58,698
TO ENSURE THE HYDROGELS

193
00:04:58,698 --> 00:05:00,233
STAY INTACT, IT'S ONE OF

194
00:05:00,233 --> 00:05:01,701
THE FIRST ITEMS THAT ASTRONAUTS

195
00:05:01,701 --> 00:05:03,903
MUST REMOVE FROM DRAGON.

196
00:05:03,903 --> 00:05:05,338
THEN WITH THE EXPERIMENT FINALLY

197
00:05:05,338 --> 00:05:06,873
ABOARD THE SPACE STATION,

198
00:05:06,873 --> 00:05:07,807
IT'S TIME TO CONDUCT

199
00:05:07,807 --> 00:05:09,409
SCIENCE IN MICROGRAVITY.

200
00:05:12,912 --> 00:05:14,180
>> THIS WAS FANTASTIC FOR ME.

201
00:05:14,180 --> 00:05:15,248
THIS IS WHAT I DO.

202
00:05:15,248 --> 00:05:16,282
THIS MEANS A LOT TO ME

203
00:05:16,282 --> 00:05:17,750
AS A CLINICIAN.

204
00:05:17,750 --> 00:05:19,619
AND SO IT WAS REALLY NEAT TO

205
00:05:19,619 --> 00:05:20,386
BE ABLE TO PERFORM THAT

206
00:05:20,386 --> 00:05:22,522
SORT OF SCIENCE ON STATION.

207
00:05:22,522 --> 00:05:24,390
>> SUBMISSION 1002 IS LOADED.
