♪ WELCOME TO SPACE TO GROUND.
THIS WEEK THE SPACE STATION CREW
IS PREPARING FOR ARRIVAL OF THE
CARGO DRAGON.
DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS
OF SATURDAY, AUGUST28th, A
SPACEX DRAGON SPACECRAFT WILL
LAUNCH FROM FLORIDA CARRYING
SUPPLIES AND RESEARCH
EXPERIMENTS TO THE INTERNATIONAL
SPACE STATION.
YOU CAN WATCH THE LAUNCH LIVE ON
NASA TV, NASA. GOV AND THE NASA
A.M.
LAUNCH OF THE CARGO DRAGON
INDEED SCHEDULED TO TAKE PLACE
AT 3:37A.M. EASTERN.
THE ARRIVAL OF THE SPACE STATION
ON SUNDAY, MORE EXCITING SCIENCE
IS EN ROUTE TO THE ORBITING LAB
TO RUN THE NEW ROBOTIC ARM IS
ARRIVING ON DRAGON BUT WORKING
INSIDE OF THIS SPACE STATION.
THE F1 ROBOTIC ARM WILL PERFORM
ACTIVITIES SUCH AS PUSHING
BUTTONS AND PLUGGING IN CABLES
THE TESTS CAN HELP IN THE
DEVELOPMENT OF ROBOTS TO SUPPORT
FUTURE CREW ACTIVITIES AND WILL
TESTING AVAILABLE LENS THAT
ATTACHES TO A MOBILE DEVICE SUCH
AS THE TABLET OR SMARTPHONE TO
CAPTURE IMAGES THE RETINAL
DIAGNOSTIC INVESTIGATION AND TO
VALIDATE THAT COULD BE A USEFUL
TOOL IN THE FIELD OF
TELEMEDICINE BOTH IN SPACE
EXPLORATION AND REMOTE AREAS ON
EARTH.
THE 15 NASA EXPERIMENT WILL
ANALYZE THE EFFECTS OF THE HARSH
ENVIRONMENT OF SPACE ON
CONCRETE, FIBERGLASS, SOLAR CELL
AND MORE AND ONGOING SERIES OF

SEPTEMBER3rd AGAIN ON
THURSDAY SEPTEMBER9th TO
PROGRAM THE RUSSIAN MODULE FOR
SCIENCE OPERATIONS.
THE NEW MODULE WILL SERVE NOT
ONLY AS SCIENCE FACILITY BUT AS
A DOCKING PORT AND AIRLINE FOR
FUTURE SPACEWALKS.
AND THAT SPACE TO GROUND FOR

WATCHING AND WE'LL SEE YOU NEXT
WEEK.
>> THE EXPEDITION 65 CREWMEMBERS
ARE PREPARED TO SEE A NEW
SHIPMENT OF SUPPLIES ARRIVE AT
THEIR DOOR VERY SOON ONBOARD THE
23rd CARGO DRAGON SPACECRAFT
FROM SPACEX.
PACKED IN THERE AMONG FOOD,
OTHER PERSONAL SUPPLIES FOR THE
ASTRONAUTS, ARE THE MATERIALS
FOR DOZENS OF NEW SCIENCE
EXPERIMENTS.
HERE IS A QUICK LOOK AT SOME OF
WHAT IS ONBOARD.
♪
♪ ♪
♪
♪ THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE
STATION HOST EXPERIMENTS IN A
WHOLE RANGE OF SCIENTIFIC
DISCIPLINES.
LIKE WHAT?
WELL, THERE ARE EXPERIMENTS THAT
ARE JUSTS ABOUT TO LAUNCH, AND
INVESTIGATIONS IN MANY CLASSIC
SCIENTIFIC DISCIPLINES.
THERE ARE ALSO THINGS LIKE
RESEARCH INTO USING 3D PRINTING
TECHNOLOGY TO MANUFACTURER
BIOLOGICAL MATERIALS IN
MICROGRAVITY WHICH WOULD ALLOW
CELL GROWTH IN 3 DIMENSIONS.
CUTTING-EDGE BIO MANUFACTURING
ABOARD THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE
STATION.
PRESENTED BY SCIENCE AT NASA.
MOST LIKELY YOU ARE AWARE OF 3D
PRINTING WHICH ALLOWS YOU TO
DESIGN PRODUCE A VARIETY OF
PURPOSES.
BUT WHAT IF YOU COULD USE THAT
SAME TECHNOLOGY MANUFACTURER
BIOLOGICAL MATERIALS.
LIKE NEW TISSUE OR BLOOD
VESSELS.
WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF 3D BIO
MANUFACTURING.
A CUTTING EDGE PRACTICE ON EARTH
THAT IS BEING TESTED ABOARD THE
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION OR
ISS.
DR.MIKE ROBERTS DEPUTY CHIEF
SCIENTIST THAT HE U.S. NATIONAL
LABORATORY EXPLAINS WHY THE
SPACE STATION IS CRITICAL TO BY
HE OH MANUFACTURING FUTURE.
WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GROW CELLS
IN A LAB FOR WELL OVER A
CENTURY.
BUT BEFORE THAT GROWTH TO TWO
DIMENSIONS.
CELLS CAN GROW OUTWARD BUT NOT
UP AND DOWN LOOK THEY DONE THE
HUMAN BODY.
ALSO, LAB CELLS ARE OFTEN IN
CONTACT WITH THE GLASS OR
PLASTIC THAT CONTAINS THEM.
BUT ABOARD THE SPACE STAKES OUR
PERSON,S WILL BE CONDUCTED IN
MICROGRAVITY THAT ALLOWS TO
BUILD THE CELL NODDLES WITHOUT
BEING CONFINED TO THE BOTTOM.
DISH OR UNABLE TO GROW IN
CONTACT WITH LOTS OF OTHER
CELLS.
BIO MANUFACTURING THE ABILITY TO
SOME DAY GROW A VIABLE HUMAN
ORGAN.
ORGANS COMPOSED OF TISSUE
INTERSECTED BY BLOOD VESSELS
MOST ORGANS AND THICKER TISSUES
A RICH COMPLEX NETWORK OF BLOOD
RES SELLS THAT REMOVE WASTES ARE
THE LIVING CELLS THAT MAKE UP
THE TISSUE.
WE CURRENTLY LOOK THE ABILITY
AND TOOLS TO THE HIGHLY BRANCHED
LIVING KNELT WORKS OF RES SELLS
INSIDE OF LAYERS OF BE SHOOS ON
EARTH.
ANOTHER MEDICAL ADVANTAGE OF
MANUFACTURING PARTS UNDESERVED
SPACE IS THE POTENTIAL TO BY
PASS THE BODY'S IMMUNE SYSTEM.
TODAY OREGON TRANSPLANTS FROM
GONE DONORS ARE PRONE TO
REJECTION BECAUSE THE PATIENT'S
BODY PERCEIVES THE NEW ORGAN AND
THEIR IMMUNE SYSTEM TRIES TO
ATTACK IT BUT WITH THE ABILITY
TO GROW IN SPACE, A PERSON COULD
CONCEIVABLY HAVE THEIR OWN CELLS
USED TO MAKE THEIR NEW OREGON
WHICH MAY AVOID THE BODY'S
REJECTION.
THREE DIFFERENT TYPES OF BIO
MANUFACTURING WILL BE TESTED
ABOARD THE SPACE STAKES.
TWO OF THEM PERFORM IN A MANNER
SIMILAR TO A STANDARD 3D PRINTER
AND EXTRUDE HE'LL CELLS IN
LAYERS TO BUILD TISSUE.
THE THIRD TYPE USES POWERFUL
MAGNETS TO POSITION THE CELLS IN
PLACE.
EACH OF THESE THREE DIFFERENT
APPROACHES TO BUY OH PRINTING IN
MICROGRAVITY WILL BE AVAILABLE
TO MEDICAL RESEARCHES SEEKING TO
BETTER UNDERSTAND HOW TO
ENGINEER TISSUE AND ORGANS FOR
USE IN REPAIRING INJURY AND
KILLING DISEASE ON EARTH.
AS DR.ROBERTS NOTE THE 3D
PRINTERS REPRESENT CUTTING EDGE
TECHNOLOGIES THAT COULD CLEARLY
BENEFIT HEALTH OUTCOME ON EARTH
AND THE ABILITY TO MANUFACTURER
A FULLY FUNCTIONING HUMAN ORGAN
WILL TAKE TIME AND MAYBE A
DECADE ARMOR.
BUT THE KNOWLEDGE WILL ACQUIRE
TO GET THERE WILL ALSO CREATE
INTERN BENEFITS AS WE LEARN MORE
ABOUT THE GENERATION IN SPACE
AND THE APPLICATION TO HUMANS ON
EARTH.

>> ON THIS SUBJECT, ROBOTICS
TECHNOLOGY THAT WAS ORIGINALLY
DEVELOPED ANOTHER INTERNATIONAL
SPACE STATION HAS FUND WAY TO
HELP HUMANS HERE ON EARTHEN
OPERATING ROOM.
BUT THE COMPANY THAT DEVELOPED
AND BUILT THOUGH SPACE STATION'S
ROBOTIC ARM HAS WORKED A MEDICAL
DEVICE MANUFACTURER TO CREATE AN
AUTO MATTED ROBOTIC ARM THAT
TRACKS THE MOVEMENTS OF THE
TOOLS TO HELP EXPEDITE BRAIN AND
SPINAL SURGERY.
>> THE SPACE STATION IS THE MOST
FANTASTIC VEHICLE EVER BUILT.
IT IS THE ONE-OF-A-KIND
LABORATORY FORWARDING ABOUT
250MILES ABOVE THE EARTH.
WE FORM EXPERIMENTS ON THE
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION.
WE CAN DO SCIENCE.
CAN LEARN HOW TO DO THINGS OUT
OF THIS WORLD AND THE RESULT
WILL HELP BENEFIT THE PEOPLE ON
THE GROUND.
SO NOT ONLY THAT, WE ARE ALL
SEEING BENEFIT OF HOW WE
ASSEMBLE THE SPACE STATION, SO
THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION
AND THE DESIGN WOULD ESSENTIALLY
DESIGN LIKE A LEGO TOY.
LOTS OF BIG PIECES.
ONLY PIECES ARE THE SIZE OF A
CITY BUS AND WE NEEDED A WAY OF
MA NIP LAYING OR MOVING THESE
BIG PIECES AND VERY PRECISELY
PUTTING THEM TOGETHER.
CANADA WORKED WITH THE
CONTRACTOR WHICH IS MDA WAN THAT
COMPANY CAME UP WITH A DESIGN TO
MEET THE NEEDS OF THE
INTERNATIONAL STATION THE
SOLUTION TO THAT WAS USING THE
LARGE ROBOTIC ARM AND THAT
SYSTEM ENDED UP BEING CANARDARM2
AND MOVE AROUND THE SPACE
STATION AND GRAB PAYLOADS, MOVE
THEM TO WHERE THEY NEEDED TO BE
SO THE SPACE STATION COULD BE
ASSEMBLED.
CUE NOT HAVE BUILT A VEHICLE
LOOK THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE
STATION WITHOUT ROBOTIC SYSTEM
LIKE THIS.
IT IS WHEN WE STARTED TALKING TO
THEM.
KNOWING THEY HAVE DONE THIS
BEFORE IN SPACE, WE THOUGHT WILL
IT BE EASY FOR THEM TO BRING
THAT EXPERIENCE AND THAT
TECHNOLOGY TO THE FOR THAT ROW
SURGICAL AREA AND HELP WITH US
THE MEDICAL ROBOTIC WORKED TO
CREATE DRIVE.
DRIVE IS A ROBOT MOUNTED TO A
BASE THAT HOLDS A SURGICAL
CAMERAL THAT COULD BE
AUTOMATICALLY POSITION TO ANY
SURGICAL INSTRUMENT THAT IS
TRACKED BY THE SYSTEM.
IT FOLLOWS SPEEDS UP EFFICIENCY
AND ALSO USING THE DRIVE SYSTEM
ALLOWS TO HAVE SHORTER SURGICAL
TIMES WHICH MEANS SHORTER
RECOVERY TIMES FOR PAIN SH AND
ALSO BETTER ANOTHER HOSPITAL AND
THE PATIENT.
WHAT THOUGH ROBOT DOES FOR US IT
ALLOWS TO IT DO IT SAFER AND CAN
DO IT BETTER OPERATION.
THE SOFTWARE THAT RUNS ALL THE
DRIVE SYSTEMS IS DIRECTLY
DERIVED FROM THE SOFTWARE THAT
RUNS THE CANARD WERE A 2 ON THE
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION.
THOUGH ROBOTICS WORK ALONGSIDE
OF THE ASTRONAUTS TO ENHANCE
WHAT THEY DO SO THAT CONNECTION
IS VERY DIRECT.
RIGHT NOW, PROBABLY THE MOST
USED SYSTEM THAT WE COULD SEE
YOU SAY IS DERIVED FROM THE
THINGS WE DID ON THE SPACE
STATION AND WE ARE PROUD OF IT.
>> I HAVE SIGN THE BEFORE.
WE HAVE SEEN IT ON THE SPACE
STATIONS BUT NEVER PUT THE TWO
TOGETHER AND I HAVE THE SAME ARM
SOMETIME NOW.
I THINK EVERYBODY HAS THIS DREAM
OF HOW ROBOTICS ARE GOING TO
BECOME MER AND MORE PART OF
EVERY DAY LIFE.
THE THINGS THAT WE DO WITH
ROBOTICS ON THE SPACE STATION IS
PUSHING THOSE DREAMS FOR WAR.
WE EVOLVE THE SYSTEM.
WE GAIN THE KNOWLEDGE.
WE GAIN THE EXPERIENCE.
THE EXPERTISE, SO THIS IS THE
UNEXPECTED BENEFITS WE GET OUT
OF DOING A PROGRAM LIKE THE
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION.
>> THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE
STATION IS NOT THOUGH ONLY NASA
MISSION THAT IS GETTING A
BENEFIT FOR THOSE STUCK ON THE
PLANET.
RIGHT NOW, THERE ARE NASA
MISSIONS MEASURING WATER LEVEL
IN OUR SOIL AND ACCESSING THE
IMPACT GRAVITY HAS ON THOSE
WATER LEVELS.
ALL OF WHICH GENERATES DATA FROM
SPACE THAT CONTRIBUTES TO
PRODUCTION ON THE GROUND.
OUR COLLEAGUES FROM NASA'S
GODDARD SPACEFLIGHT CENTER HAVE
A LOOK AT WHAT NASA HAS TO DO
WITH IRRIGATION FOR AGRICULTURE
AND THEREFORE THE CREATION OF
SNACKS.
>> WELCOME TO SNACK TIME.
[DOG BARKING]
>> OK.
WELCOME TO SNACK TIME WITH NASA.
I AM YOUR HOST AND THIS IS MY
DOG AND WE LOVE CHEESE.
SO THIS PAST YEAR AT HOME WE
APPRECIATED THE LITTLE THINGS
LIVE.
AGAIN, ONE OF THOSE THING FOR US
IS A NICE BIG CHEESE SOURCE
TODAY I WILL SHOW YOU HOW I LIKE
TO PREPARE MY OWN AND WHERE NASA
ACTUALLY SIT ON THE BOARD AND
MANY PEOPLE DON'T KNOW THAT NASA
HAS A LOT TO DO WITH THE FOOD ON
YOUR PLATE SO HIGH LIABILITY
SOME OF THE FOODS NASA HELPS
GROW USING DATA FROM SPACE.
NOW, WHEN YOU THINK OF NASA AND
DAIRY ESPECIALLY, YOU MAY THINK
OF FREEZE DRIED ICE CREAM BUT
THE CONNECTION ACTUALLY GOES A
LOT DEEPER.
SO WHY A CHARACTER AND CHEESE
BOARD?
WHEN WE ARE TALKING ABOUT FOOD.
IT ALL COMES DOWN TO WATER.
CORN, SOY, ALFALFA, IT ALL NEEDS
WATER TO GROW WHETHER IT IS
BEING FED TO HUMANS OR DAIRY
COWS SO WHEN FARMERS ARE BETTER
PREPARED FOR WATER SHORTAGE IN
ADVANCE THEY CAN MAKE MORE OF A
DECISION LIKE GROW, HOW TO
IRRIGATE THEM, WHERE AND WHAT TO
FEED THEIR LIVESTOCK SO HERE TO
HELP US SEE THE CONNECTION
BETWEEN THE SPACE, IS MATT NASA
SCIENTISTS AND HOW IS IT GOING?
>> HI, HOW ARE YOU? AGO THAT
THANKS FOR HAVING ME.
GOOD.
THANKS FOR BEING HERE.
WHILE I ATTEMPT TO CUBE CHEESE,
CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT NASA HAS TO
DO WITH IRRIGATION FOR
AGRICULTURE?
>> ABSOLUTELY.
SO AGRICULTURE REQUIRES A NICE
WET SOIL FOR GROWING CROPS AND
HOW WELL THE CROPS ARE GOING TO
GROW AND BETTER IDEA OF HOW MUCH
WATER THERE IS IN THE SOIL SO WE
ARE COMING UP WITH BETTER WAYS
FOR MONITORING SOIL WETNESS FROM
SPACE AND ONE OF THE WAYS WE DO
THIS IS BY USING NASA SASS
SATELLITE WHICH IS ACRONYM THAT
ACTUALLY MEASURES THE WETNESS
IN THE TOP OF THE SOIL WORLDWIDE
AND EVERY DAY AND IN THIS
INFORMATION IS VITAL FOR
UNDERSTANDING HOW MUCH WATER IS
AVAILABLE FOR THE PLANTS, HOW
MUCH WATER IS NEEDED FOR
IRRIGATING THE CROPS AND USUAL
FOR FARMERS AND LAND MANAGER AND
OTHERS AND ALSO USING FOR
MONITORING DROUGHT.
ANOTHER MISSION THAT NASA HAS IS
CALLED GRACE WHICH IS ANOTHER
ACRONYM AND GRACE IS REALLY
INCREDIBLE BECAUSE IT USES
MEASUREMENTS OF EARTH'S GRAVITY
FIELD TO UNDERSTAND THE AMOUNT
OF WATER ON AND IN THE LAND
SURFACE SO WE CAN MEASURE THINGS
LOOK THE AMOUNT OF WATER IN THE
UNDERGROUND AQUIFERS DEEP
UNDERGROUND AND THIS IS VITALLY
IMPORTANT BECAUSE GROUNDWATER
ITS ONE OF THE MAIN SOURCES OF
WATER FOR AGRICULTURE AND ALSO A
SOURCE OF WATER FOR PEOPLE WHOLE
HAVE WELLS IN THE BACKYARD LOOK
DOW SO WHEN I TURN ON THE FAUCET
ON THAT IS GROUNDWATER COMING
OUT.
IN FACT ABOUT HALF OF THE
PRODUCE THAT WE EAT WE HAVE
GROUND WATT TIER THANK FOR THAT
BECAUSE IT IS USED FOR THAT MUCH
IRRIGATION THAT INCLUDES THINGS
LIKE THOUGH WHEAT IN YOUR
CHARACTERS, SOY, FRUITS AND
VEGETABLES ON THE PLAT, HE ET
CETERA SO ALL THE THINGS NASA IS
DOING ARE CONTRIBUTING TO THE
UNDERSTANDING OF THE WATER
AVAILABILITY THAT IS CRITICAL
FOR IRRIGATING ALL OF THESE
CROPS.
INTERESTING.
>> AND A GOOD REMINDER THAT THE
CHEESE BOARD NEEDS DRESSING UP
SO I HAVE WHAT I BELIEVE TO BE
THE MOST UNDER RATED PART OF A
CHEESE BOARD WHICH ARE CARROTS
AND OLIVES.
YEAH.
THOUGH ARE PRETTY WATER
INTENSIVE CROPS.
AND THEY ARE GROWN TO CENTRAL
VALLEY WHICH IS SOMEPLACE WHERE
PROPER WATER MANAGEMENT ITS
CRITICAL AND I SEE YOU HAVE
GRAPES THERE, TOO.
SPEAKING OF GRAPES, NASA HAS
ONGOING PROJECT WITH THE U.S.
END DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
WHERE WE ARE USING DATA FROM
LAND SAT SATELLITES ALONG WITH
MULTIPLE OTHER SPACE AND GROUND
BASED OBSERVATION SOURCES AND
ADVANCED COMPUTER MODELS TO HELP
SCHEDULE IRRIGATION ANOTHER
VINEYARD AND AIRPORT PRESERVE
THE PRESS SOUS RESOURCE AND
WATER IS PRECIOUS IN CALIFORNIA
AND WRAP THERE IS ONGOING
DROUGHT RIGHT NOW AS WELL AS
MOST OF THE AMERICAN WEST.
WE USE DATA FROM MULTIPLE SALT
LIGHTS TO MONITOR DROUGHT AND
THIS HELPS THE END USERS LOOK
THE FARMER AND THE RANCHERS AND
OTHERS THAT ARE INTERESTED IN
AGRICULTURE TO BETTER PREPARE
FOR DRUG AND TO BETTER PLAN HOW
TO MET GATE THE EFFECTS OF
DROUGHT AND DROUGHTS ARE EVEN
MORE IMPORTANT IN THE FUTURE WE
BELIEVE WITH CLIMATE CHANGE AND
LIKELY THAT IN SOME PARTS OF THE
WORLD, DROUGHTS ARE GOING TO
BECOME MORE FREQUENT AND MOREEN
TENSE AND IT IS POSSIBLE THAT
THE DRY PART PARTS OF THE WORD
WITH DRY THAT IS WHERE NASA
COMES IN AND HELPING WITH UNTIL
THE ONLY THE CURRENT MONITORING
DROUGHT BUT THE FORECASTING OF
CURRENT DROUGHT AND THEN
PREDICTIONS OF HOW CLIMATE IS
GOING TO CHANGE IN THE FUTURE
AND HOW IT WILL AFFECT THE WATER
RESOURCE.
WELL, IT LOOKS LIKE THE CHEESE
BOARD IS DONE, BE WHAT DO YOU
THINK INTO I THINK IT LOOKS
DELICIOUS.
CAN'T WAIT TO START MY OWN
LUNCH.
THANKS SO MUCH FOR HAVING ME.
>> THANKS FOR JOINING ME.
THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR WATCHING.
I HOPE YOU LEARNED A LOT.
I KNOW I DID.
I HOPE THIS WAS NOT TOO CHEESY
FOR YOU.
ON ADDITION TO BEING THE
HANDS-ON FOR SCIENCE RESEARCH
DONE IN SPACE, THE INTERNATIONAL
SPACE STATION'S CREWMEMBERS USE
SOME OF THE TIME TO SHARE THE
EXPERIENCE OF BEING IN SPACE AND
TO HELP STUDENTS LEARN ABOUT
SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS AS THEY
STUDY SCIENCE TECHNOLOGY AND
ANIMAL.
FOR EXAMPLE, ASTRONAUTS SCOTT
TINGLE PUT TOGETHER THIS
DEMONSTRATION VIDEO ABOUT THE
IMPORTANCE OF NUTRITION FOR MEN
AND WOMEN WHOM ARE OF THIS
PLANET IF NOT ON IT AT THE
MOMENT.
>> HELLO.
WELCOME TO THE INTERNATIONAL
SPACE STATION.
MY NAME IS SCOTT DINGLE HERE ON
THE SPACE STATION, WE LIVE IN A
MICROGRAVITY ENVIRONMENT WITH
MAKES IT A UNIQUE EX PEE.
STAY HEALTHY WE HAVE TO MAINTAIN
NUTRITIOUS DIE LET LIKE WEE BACK
ON EARTH.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THE FOOD
AND DRINKS TO CHECK OUT THE MEAL
PREPARATION AREA.
DURING LONG DURATION
SPACEFLIGHTS WITH VERY TO MAKE
SURE WE RECEIVE ENOUGH ENERGY
PROTEINS AND VITAMINS OUR FOOD
REPS CAREFULLY PREPARE, TEST,
PACKAGE EVERYTHING.
WE COMBINE ALL OF THIS EXCELLENT
NUTRITION WEDGES SER SIGHS TO
ENSURE OUR BODIES STAY HEALTHY
AND STRONG WHILE WE ARE HERE.
WE'LL THREE SQUARE MEALS A DAY
LIKE WE DO ON ETHER AND MAYBE
THROW IN A SNACK OR TWO.
ONE OF THE MOST FAVORITE FOODS
TO EAT ARE NATURAL RAISINS.
HERE ON SPACE STATION WE HAVE TO
KEEP OUR CALORIES UP TO WE WANT
TO GET OUR WORK DONE AND THE
CARBOHYDRATES IN THE RAISIN HELP
AND THEY ARE KIND OF FUN TO EAT,
TOO.
HOW DO WE STAY HYDRATED WITH
THESE SPECIAL POUCHES.
THEY ARE FILLED WITH WATER AND
WE HAVE A STRAW THAT USES A
ONE-WAY VALVE THAT PREVENTS
WATER FROM FLOATING OUT WHILE WE
ARE NOT DRINK ARE FIT TO.
HERE IS A LIQUID DRINK.
A TROPICAL PUNCH FOR THE DAY.
I LOVE DRINKING FLUID ON THE
STATION.
HEAR ON STATION WE HAVE A FEW
PREP AREA.
WE HAVE PLACE TO GET FRESH WATER
FOR US TO DRINK OR TO PUT IN OUR
REHYDRATABLE FOOD AND ANOTHER
ONE TO PUT FOOD IN AND PICK OUT
SOME OF THE FAVORITE FOODS,
CHICKEN FAJITA FOR ME, PUT IT IN
THE CLOSE THE DOOR, AND TUSH IT
ON.
IN 15 MINUTES, I WILL HAVE A
WARM MEAL.
THANKS FOR EXPLORING A LITTLE
NUTRITION WITH ME.
WILL SEND YOU BACK TO EARTH SO
YOU CAN CREATE YOUR OWN
ASTRONAUT MENUS.
SEE YOU AGAIN SOON.

REALLY GOT TO SOAK INTO THE VIEW
WAS IN THE CUPOLA ON THE

THE PERSPECTIVE JUMPS AT YOU AND
CHALLENGES YOU IN MULTIPLE WAYS,
I THINK IT EVOKES, YOU KNOW, ALL
OF THESE DIFFERENT SENSATIONS.
THE LARGEST EMOTION THAT I WOULD
FEEL OUT OF IT, I FELT THIS
CONNECTION.
ALL OF HUMANITY IS HERE ON THIS
GLOBE.
YOU REALIZED JUST HOW SPECIAL
THE PLACE WE ARE IS.
AND YOU FEEL THAT CONNECTION.
AND WHEN YOU SEE THE IMPACTS
THAT WE CAN HAVE ON THE LAND, IT

WE ALSO LIVE HERE ON EARTH
TOGETHER.
AND NEED WORK TOGETHER TO MAKE
SURE THE EARTH STAYS AS PRISTINE

DURING THE THIRD EVA, I CAN
REMEMBER, WE WERE WORKING ON THE

SO I FINISH THAT YOU TAX, SO TO
CATCH MY BREATH, I PROPPED
MYSELF UP ON THE FRONT OF THE

4:00 IN THE MORNING.
WILL GO DOWN THE CUPOLA.
WILL DRINK MY COFFEE AND STARE
AT THE STARS.
AND THERE IS JUST SO MANY.
THE LONGER YOU STAIR.
THE MORE YOU SEE.
START WITH THE BIG BRIGHT ONES
UNTIL YOUR EYES START TO ADJUST
TO THE DARK THEN OPEN UP A
LITTLE BIT MORE AND WHEN YOUR
EYES OPEN UP A LITTLE BIT MORE.
YOU SEE ALL OF THE SMALLER
LITTLE STARS THEN ONCE THEY OPEN
UP ENOUGH.
THEN YOU CAN START TOT SEE ALL
OF THIS CLOUDY STRUCTURES AND
YOU REALIZE THAT THE DEP TONIGHT
OF WHAT IS OUT THERE I CAN ONLY
SEE THE TIP CHEF ICEBERG SO IT
DEFINITELY PUTS YOU IN YOUR
PLACE AND IN TERMS OF YOU KNOW,
HOW BIG AM I, HOW BIG ARE WE AS
HUMANITY SITTING HERE ON EARTH.
BEING ABLE TO BE LAG AT THE
EARTH FROM THAT VAN PAGE POINT
ANT SEE MYSELF AS PART OF
SOMETHING SO SMALL IN THE GREAT
COSMOS BUT ALSO PART OF
SOMETHING SO LARGE AS THE EARTH
THAT IS BELOW ME MADE ME REALIZE

I MAY BE ONE SMALL INDIVIDUAL
THAT IS PART OF HUMANITY HERE ON

IMPACT BUT STILL BE SOMETHING
VERY SMALL.
THAT BALANCE OF PERSPECTIVE HAS
GIVEN ME A SENSE OF EMPOWERMENT
THAT I HOPE THAT EVERYBODY CAN
