00:19:46,485 --> 00:19:48,053
Johnson Space Center where a

10
00:19:48,120 --> 00:19:50,055
team of specialists is always

11
00:19:50,122 --> 00:19:51,657
keeping an eye on space its

12
00:19:51,723 --> 00:19:52,958
systems and working with the

13
00:19:53,025 --> 00:19:55,093
expedition 66 crew members as

14
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:56,962
they conduct science research on

15
00:19:57,029 --> 00:19:58,263
orbit and take care of their

16
00:19:58,330 --> 00:20:00,165
home in place.

Russian and German crewmates

19
00:20:04,469 --> 00:20:05,938
have been busy this week getting

20
00:20:06,004 --> 00:20:08,240
the newest members settled in on

21
00:20:08,307 --> 00:20:09,875
orbit and down to the business

22
00:20:09,942 --> 00:20:11,510
of an experiment operations

23
00:20:11,577 --> 00:20:14,980
while packing up a cargo stick

24
00:20:15,047 --> 00:20:16,648
that will be departing this

25
00:20:16,715 --> 00:20:20,285
weekend.

26
00:20:20,352 --> 00:20:22,521
>> Welcome.

27
00:20:22,588 --> 00:20:24,890
The space station has seven

28
00:20:24,957 --> 00:20:27,125
inhabitants hard at work once

29
00:20:27,192 --> 00:20:34,099
against on November 11th, they

30
00:20:34,166 --> 00:20:35,500
arrived at the international

31
00:20:35,567 --> 00:20:39,538
space station.

32
00:20:39,605 --> 00:20:41,473
They launched on the tenth which

33
00:20:41,540 --> 00:20:42,507
is two days after the

34
00:20:42,574 --> 00:20:44,710
counterparts returned home and

35
00:20:44,776 --> 00:20:48,313
leaving to the landing and the

36
00:20:48,380 --> 00:20:49,915
match they will live and work

37
00:20:49,982 --> 00:20:52,317
aboard the laboratory six months

38
00:20:52,384 --> 00:20:53,952
and to keep up with their

39
00:20:54,019 --> 00:20:56,188
mission follow them on Twitter,

40
00:20:56,254 --> 00:21:00,058
Instagram and Facebook.

41
00:21:00,125 --> 00:21:01,660
And now it is time to get down

42
00:21:01,727 --> 00:21:03,562
to business, one of the major

43
00:21:03,629 --> 00:21:06,531
areas on the space station is on

44
00:21:06,598 --> 00:21:07,866
the guide which is one of the

45
00:21:07,933 --> 00:21:10,769
first experiment to the

46
00:21:10,836 --> 00:21:15,073
environment.

47
00:21:15,140 --> 00:21:19,044
They look at the effects on the

48
00:21:19,111 --> 00:21:21,613
muscle system and how astronauts

49
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:23,782
ability to interpret motion and

50
00:21:23,849 --> 00:21:25,584
distance is affected by the

51
00:21:25,651 --> 00:21:27,386
environment.

52
00:21:27,452 --> 00:21:28,453
They help us to better

53
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,023
understand and mitigate issues

54
00:21:31,089 --> 00:21:33,325
and also provide insight on how

55
00:21:33,392 --> 00:21:35,394
to improve similar situations

56
00:21:35,460 --> 00:21:38,897
for those on earth.

57
00:21:38,964 --> 00:21:40,632
Now, they are scheduled to

58
00:21:40,699 --> 00:21:43,869
depart on November 20th.

59
00:21:43,935 --> 00:21:46,238
They will arrive with a thousand

60
00:21:46,304 --> 00:21:48,907
supplies of hardware and other

61
00:21:48,974 --> 00:21:53,879
cargo over three months ago,

62
00:21:53,945 --> 00:21:57,416
they named this after Allison

63
00:21:57,482 --> 00:21:58,450
which is the first

64
00:21:58,517 --> 00:22:00,686
Asian-American astronaut the

65
00:22:00,752 --> 00:22:05,390
command this inside and have a

66
00:22:05,457 --> 00:22:07,025
reentry into the Earth's

67
00:22:07,092 --> 00:22:10,295
atmosphere after release, the

68
00:22:10,362 --> 00:22:13,899
experiment which will show

69
00:22:13,965 --> 00:22:17,102
detection of reentry.

70
00:22:17,169 --> 00:22:18,704
Lyme coverage of the departure

71
00:22:18,770 --> 00:22:22,574
is at 10:45 Eastern time.

72
00:22:22,641 --> 00:22:24,876
That is all today, we will see

73
00:22:24,943 --> 00:22:33,118
you next week.

74
00:22:33,185 --> 00:22:35,020
>> A new set of astronauts has

75
00:22:35,087 --> 00:22:37,389
kicked off the six month mission

76
00:22:37,456 --> 00:22:43,195
on the space station and they

77
00:22:43,261 --> 00:22:44,996
describe their plans for science

78
00:22:45,063 --> 00:22:47,065
research and advancements in the

79
00:22:47,132 --> 00:22:49,701
commercial use of space while

80
00:22:49,768 --> 00:22:51,369
the preparation for humans to

81
00:22:51,436 --> 00:22:57,309
explore the moon in a few years.

82
00:22:57,375 --> 00:23:01,880
>> I am a missions specialist.

83
00:23:01,947 --> 00:23:05,317
>> I am a mission specialist.

84
00:23:05,383 --> 00:23:07,185
>> My name is Tom and I am the

85
00:23:07,252 --> 00:23:09,354
pilot.

86
00:23:09,421 --> 00:23:11,523
>> I am the commander to the

87
00:23:11,590 --> 00:23:26,705
international space station.

88
00:23:26,772 --> 00:23:29,374
The crew three mission has one

89
00:23:29,441 --> 00:23:32,744
the commercial to the space

90
00:23:32,811 --> 00:23:34,713
station we are working on the

91
00:23:34,780 --> 00:23:36,414
international space station

92
00:23:36,481 --> 00:23:39,317
around six months do lots of

93
00:23:39,384 --> 00:23:41,620
experiments and science and this

94
00:23:41,686 --> 00:23:43,655
is one of our newest ways to get

95
00:23:43,722 --> 00:23:44,656
there.

96
00:23:44,723 --> 00:23:49,861
There has been the space shuttle

97
00:23:49,928 --> 00:23:52,063
for the space station and now

98
00:23:52,130 --> 00:23:54,733
the crew Dragon is taking human

99
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:56,535
beings there so we've partnered

100
00:23:56,601 --> 00:23:59,070
with them in the program which

101
00:23:59,137 --> 00:24:00,939
design and build and operate a

102
00:24:01,006 --> 00:24:02,607
vehicle that takes us and

103
00:24:02,674 --> 00:24:05,043
transports us so that we could

104
00:24:05,110 --> 00:24:08,180
contribute to what we are doing

105
00:24:08,246 --> 00:24:09,648
out there.

106
00:24:09,714 --> 00:24:12,284
>> It is exciting to be on a new

107
00:24:12,350 --> 00:24:15,020
space station and what I am

108
00:24:15,086 --> 00:24:16,788
looking forward to is flying

109
00:24:16,855 --> 00:24:18,256
with three people who have not

110
00:24:18,323 --> 00:24:20,525
flown in space before it is a

111
00:24:20,592 --> 00:24:22,894
unique crew it is operational

112
00:24:22,961 --> 00:24:25,063
sounding already so when I try

113
00:24:25,130 --> 00:24:27,332
to do is, if there aren't any

114
00:24:27,399 --> 00:24:28,633
gaps in their knowledge of how

115
00:24:28,700 --> 00:24:31,169
they feel or operate or zero

116
00:24:31,236 --> 00:24:32,904
gravity what it will be like and

117
00:24:32,971 --> 00:24:34,406
how that may challenge our

118
00:24:34,472 --> 00:24:36,074
expectations for what we could

119
00:24:36,141 --> 00:24:39,878
get done, you really feel like

120
00:24:39,945 --> 00:24:41,913
you have become a resident of

121
00:24:41,980 --> 00:24:45,050
space a resident of this.

122
00:24:45,116 --> 00:24:46,651
And you start to feel like you

123
00:24:46,718 --> 00:24:48,486
are getting into the idea of how

124
00:24:48,553 --> 00:24:50,989
this works and every day is

125
00:24:51,056 --> 00:24:52,324
problem-solving you have to

126
00:24:52,390 --> 00:24:54,960
figure out where to put your

127
00:24:55,026 --> 00:24:57,462
pencil and drink if you have it.

128
00:24:57,529 --> 00:24:59,798
Because 10,000 times a day you

129
00:24:59,865 --> 00:25:01,333
are resolving problems and then

130
00:25:01,399 --> 00:25:02,434
you feel like you could really

131
00:25:02,500 --> 00:25:05,070
be efficient and, get a lot of

132
00:25:05,136 --> 00:25:06,738
work done there is a lot of work

133
00:25:06,805 --> 00:25:09,507
to get done on this right now.

134
00:25:09,574 --> 00:25:10,942
>> We spend a lot of time

135
00:25:11,009 --> 00:25:13,078
training this is a dynamic phase

136
00:25:13,144 --> 00:25:15,614
but it is such a tiny fraction

137
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:17,682
of the whole.is to go there and

138
00:25:17,749 --> 00:25:19,384
to do some incredible work up

139
00:25:19,451 --> 00:25:22,320
there, so our time is spent

140
00:25:22,387 --> 00:25:23,655
keeping the space station

141
00:25:23,722 --> 00:25:26,124
healthy and we have another 20

142
00:25:26,191 --> 00:25:28,193
years, a lot of systems need

143
00:25:28,260 --> 00:25:29,928
maintenance and upgrades and

144
00:25:29,995 --> 00:25:31,897
operators keep them working well

145
00:25:31,963 --> 00:25:34,032
but we also do some incredible.

146
00:25:34,099 --> 00:25:34,900
>> Science it is National

147
00:25:34,966 --> 00:25:38,470
Laboratory around the earth and

148
00:25:38,536 --> 00:25:41,373
it is a unique environment.

149
00:25:41,439 --> 00:25:43,308
>> Once we arrived, we have

150
00:25:43,375 --> 00:25:46,211
another experiment.

151
00:25:46,278 --> 00:25:48,380
My focus will be lots of

152
00:25:48,446 --> 00:25:51,449
experiment in this domain and

153
00:25:51,516 --> 00:25:53,218
also life science is very

154
00:25:53,285 --> 00:25:54,552
important.

155
00:25:54,619 --> 00:25:56,221
There is all kinds of research

156
00:25:56,288 --> 00:25:58,056
going on the leads to these

157
00:25:58,123 --> 00:25:59,891
fundamental changes in how we

158
00:25:59,958 --> 00:26:02,394
understand how our world works

159
00:26:02,460 --> 00:26:04,996
that is the experiments which

160
00:26:05,063 --> 00:26:06,364
lead us to the science and

161
00:26:06,431 --> 00:26:08,366
discoveries that push our

162
00:26:08,433 --> 00:26:10,902
species further beyond and

163
00:26:10,969 --> 00:26:12,837
understand and operate even

164
00:26:12,904 --> 00:26:14,739
better.

165
00:26:14,806 --> 00:26:16,141
>> One of the great legacies of

166
00:26:16,207 --> 00:26:17,943
the space station is going to be

167
00:26:18,009 --> 00:26:19,244
science.

168
00:26:19,311 --> 00:26:20,512
Very importantly the

169
00:26:20,578 --> 00:26:24,015
cooperation.

170
00:26:24,082 --> 00:26:25,383
Certainly today the most

171
00:26:25,450 --> 00:26:27,752
prominent cooperation for

172
00:26:27,819 --> 00:26:30,588
exploration for survival, it is

173
00:26:30,655 --> 00:26:31,823
not for competition in the

174
00:26:31,890 --> 00:26:33,792
marketplace, it is just

175
00:26:33,858 --> 00:26:36,161
exploration.

176
00:26:36,227 --> 00:26:37,796
>> Now I think we are about to

177
00:26:37,862 --> 00:26:44,369
enter a new era of spaceflight,

178
00:26:44,436 --> 00:26:49,107
now, it is a commercial

179
00:26:49,174 --> 00:26:52,978
experiment.

180
00:26:53,044 --> 00:26:54,913
And they come to run their own

181
00:26:54,980 --> 00:26:58,850
science program, which is what

182
00:26:58,917 --> 00:27:02,620
they enjoy, and to convey this

183
00:27:02,687 --> 00:27:15,900
message the international space

184
00:27:15,967 --> 00:27:17,302
station's mission is to

185
00:27:17,369 --> 00:27:19,070
encourage commercialization of

186
00:27:19,137 --> 00:27:20,939
spaceflight and space research

187
00:27:21,006 --> 00:27:22,640
into serve as a science

188
00:27:22,707 --> 00:27:26,011
laboratory to support deep space

189
00:27:26,077 --> 00:27:27,812
and to promote international

190
00:27:27,879 --> 00:27:29,347
cooperation.

191
00:27:29,414 --> 00:27:30,982
All of these Google's come

192
00:27:31,049 --> 00:27:32,384
together when the station is

193
00:27:32,450 --> 00:27:34,586
used as a launchpad for a series

194
00:27:34,652 --> 00:27:38,923
of small satellites known as the

195
00:27:38,990 --> 00:27:42,160
sack.

196
00:27:42,227 --> 00:27:49,401
Small satellites and discoveries

197
00:27:49,467 --> 00:27:52,971
presented by science of NASA.

198
00:27:53,038 --> 00:27:55,673
Remember the old adage things

199
00:27:55,740 --> 00:27:58,276
come in small packages, NASA has

200
00:27:58,343 --> 00:28:02,614
updated it in the form of cube.

201
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:04,482
Imagine a working satellite that

202
00:28:04,549 --> 00:28:06,418
is so small you could hold it in

203
00:28:06,484 --> 00:28:09,054
your hands just 4 inches or

204
00:28:09,120 --> 00:28:11,322
10 centimeters across they could

205
00:28:11,389 --> 00:28:13,591
be expanded incrementally disc

206
00:28:13,658 --> 00:28:16,127
pending on their objectives.

207
00:28:16,194 --> 00:28:19,030
Originally developed in 1999 by

208
00:28:19,097 --> 00:28:22,400
Cal poly and Stanford University

209
00:28:22,467 --> 00:28:24,969
for educational purposes, NASA

210
00:28:25,036 --> 00:28:26,371
has since used them for new

211
00:28:26,438 --> 00:28:28,506
science missions and to test new

212
00:28:28,573 --> 00:28:30,642
electronics, sensors and

213
00:28:30,708 --> 00:28:32,210
software which may be included

214
00:28:32,277 --> 00:28:34,779
on larger missions.

215
00:28:34,846 --> 00:28:36,781
The Chief technologist for the

216
00:28:36,848 --> 00:28:38,750
mission director says the

217
00:28:38,817 --> 00:28:40,652
ability to test new technology

218
00:28:40,718 --> 00:28:42,454
at a fraction of the cost of a

219
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,022
larger satellite makes them

220
00:28:44,089 --> 00:28:46,191
invaluable and it really opens

221
00:28:46,257 --> 00:28:48,960
your eyes to many possibilities.

222
00:28:49,027 --> 00:28:50,929
Just as eye-opening as the way

223
00:28:50,995 --> 00:28:52,530
they are quickly unlocking new

224
00:28:52,597 --> 00:28:54,532
scientific data.

225
00:28:54,599 --> 00:28:56,568
For example, while conventional

226
00:28:56,634 --> 00:28:58,369
satellites have long absorbed

227
00:28:58,436 --> 00:29:00,205
clouds in and provided estimates

228
00:29:00,271 --> 00:29:02,073
of the liquid precipitation they

229
00:29:02,140 --> 00:29:03,842
hold they have never observed

230
00:29:03,908 --> 00:29:05,643
the smaller ice particles that

231
00:29:05,710 --> 00:29:08,613
create enormous rain clouds.

232
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:10,248
It is known as an ice cube

233
00:29:10,315 --> 00:29:13,184
contains a new sub- millimeter

234
00:29:13,251 --> 00:29:15,887
radiometer they could make these

235
00:29:15,954 --> 00:29:17,722
measurements of the small frozen

236
00:29:17,789 --> 00:29:19,357
crystals that make up ice

237
00:29:19,424 --> 00:29:20,625
clouds.

238
00:29:20,692 --> 00:29:21,893
After being deployed from the

239
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:23,795
international space Center in

240
00:29:23,862 --> 00:29:26,631
May of 2017, they created a

241
00:29:26,698 --> 00:29:29,667
global map around the planet.

242
00:29:29,734 --> 00:29:31,302
Someday this technique may

243
00:29:31,369 --> 00:29:32,937
improve long range weather

244
00:29:33,004 --> 00:29:36,007
models and forecasts.

245
00:29:36,074 --> 00:29:38,543
A long way from Earth, Marco

246
00:29:38,610 --> 00:29:40,278
traveled to Mars and they are

247
00:29:40,345 --> 00:29:42,847
the only cubes so far to leave

248
00:29:42,914 --> 00:29:44,482
Earth's orbit with the mission

249
00:29:44,549 --> 00:29:49,487
was launched in 2018, they also

250
00:29:49,554 --> 00:29:51,389
began their seven month journey

251
00:29:51,456 --> 00:29:52,524
to Mars.

252
00:29:52,590 --> 00:29:53,491
And that now they have

253
00:29:53,558 --> 00:29:55,193
successfully landed on the red

254
00:29:55,260 --> 00:30:02,000
planet.

255
00:30:02,066 --> 00:30:02,800
.

256
00:30:02,867 --> 00:30:04,302
It was transmitted to the

257
00:30:04,369 --> 00:30:11,609
orbiter after this delay, they

258
00:30:11,676 --> 00:30:14,512
acted as a signal relay during

259
00:30:14,579 --> 00:30:16,681
this stage to allow

260
00:30:16,748 --> 00:30:22,487
communication according to

261
00:30:22,554 --> 00:30:24,088
Charles Norton the special

262
00:30:24,155 --> 00:30:29,527
advisor in another advantage of

263
00:30:29,594 --> 00:30:31,829
compact cubes is they allow for

264
00:30:31,896 --> 00:30:33,331
very focused scientific

265
00:30:33,398 --> 00:30:36,000
inquiries to take place.

266
00:30:36,067 --> 00:30:41,873
The miniature x-ray is a project

267
00:30:41,940 --> 00:30:43,441
using commercial laboratory

268
00:30:43,508 --> 00:30:46,945
detector in space it is a soft

269
00:30:47,011 --> 00:30:49,214
spectrum in the gap of energy

270
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:50,448
coverage between two other

271
00:30:50,515 --> 00:30:53,985
missions.

272
00:30:54,052 --> 00:30:57,188
This cap region is important

273
00:30:57,255 --> 00:31:00,258
with the Earth's atmosphere and

274
00:31:00,325 --> 00:31:01,392
particular interest for

275
00:31:01,459 --> 00:31:03,494
observations of solar flares and

276
00:31:03,561 --> 00:31:06,397
active regions.

277
00:31:06,464 --> 00:31:08,967
A considerate discovery with the

278
00:31:09,033 --> 00:31:11,402
origin of the universe itself,

279
00:31:11,469 --> 00:31:14,839
along mystery is where one third

280
00:31:14,906 --> 00:31:17,375
of the baryon acorn ordinary

281
00:31:17,442 --> 00:31:18,876
matter that existed during the

282
00:31:18,943 --> 00:31:20,678
early formation of the universe

283
00:31:20,745 --> 00:31:22,847
might be found today.

284
00:31:22,914 --> 00:31:24,482
Scientists suspect it lies in

285
00:31:24,549 --> 00:31:26,684
the very hot halos of gas that

286
00:31:26,751 --> 00:31:29,887
surround galaxies halos are ace

287
00:31:29,954 --> 00:31:32,023
that they will examine x-rays

288
00:31:32,090 --> 00:31:33,925
from oxygen atoms surrounding

289
00:31:33,992 --> 00:31:35,727
our Milky Way to determine how

290
00:31:35,793 --> 00:31:37,562
much missing matter may lie in

291
00:31:37,629 --> 00:31:40,565
the halo of our galaxy.

292
00:31:40,632 --> 00:31:42,600
While small in size, they have

293
00:31:42,667 --> 00:31:44,068
potential to make a big

294
00:31:44,135 --> 00:31:46,904
scientific impacts on earth in

295
00:31:46,971 --> 00:31:49,574
our solar system and deep into

296
00:31:49,641 --> 00:31:55,346
the universe.

297
00:31:55,413 --> 00:31:57,582
For more about other missions,

298
00:31:57,649 --> 00:32:02,387
big and small visit our website.

299
00:32:02,453 --> 00:32:04,122
One thing we already learned

300
00:32:04,188 --> 00:32:06,057
about supporting human beings in

301
00:32:06,124 --> 00:32:08,326
space on long missions is that

302
00:32:08,393 --> 00:32:10,028
they have to exercise to fight

303
00:32:10,094 --> 00:32:11,696
off negative effects of the

304
00:32:11,763 --> 00:32:13,164
weightless environment in the

305
00:32:13,231 --> 00:32:14,632
international space station has

306
00:32:14,699 --> 00:32:16,334
been the proving ground for a

307
00:32:16,401 --> 00:32:18,002
number of systems to accomplish

308
00:32:18,069 --> 00:32:19,470
that goal.

309
00:32:19,537 --> 00:32:22,707
In this, the astronaut gives us

310
00:32:22,774 --> 00:32:25,176
a rapidfire display of exercises

311
00:32:25,243 --> 00:32:27,812
which could be done in just-with

312
00:32:27,879 --> 00:32:32,583
just one piece of equipment.

313
00:32:32,650 --> 00:32:33,785
>> Today we are going to talk

314
00:32:33,851 --> 00:32:35,620
about exercising in space we

315
00:32:35,687 --> 00:32:36,988
have three different devices

316
00:32:37,055 --> 00:32:38,289
right here and I will talk about

317
00:32:38,356 --> 00:32:39,557
one of them.

318
00:32:39,624 --> 00:32:41,359
We cannot lift weights is a we

319
00:32:41,426 --> 00:32:44,762
have exercise and this protects

320
00:32:44,829 --> 00:32:48,466
the experiments which are

321
00:32:48,533 --> 00:32:51,736
sensitive to vibrations so this

322
00:32:51,803 --> 00:32:53,571
is very cool as you move it

323
00:32:53,638 --> 00:32:55,640
isolates any vibrations away

324
00:32:55,707 --> 00:32:57,775
from the structure and protects

325
00:32:57,842 --> 00:33:00,078
the science so we work out two

326
00:33:00,144 --> 00:33:02,146
hours every day to maintain our

327
00:33:02,213 --> 00:33:05,783
muscle and bone mass.

328
00:33:05,850 --> 00:33:18,162
So here are my squats.

329
00:33:18,229 --> 00:33:25,370
The raises.

330
00:33:25,436 --> 00:33:44,122
The lift.

331
00:33:44,188 --> 00:33:49,127
Bench.

332
00:33:49,193 --> 00:34:05,743
Military press.

333
00:34:05,810 --> 00:34:20,958
Tricep extensions.

334
00:34:21,025 --> 00:34:26,964
Curls.

335
00:34:27,031 --> 00:34:33,137
Form extensions.

336
00:34:33,204 --> 00:34:34,439
Do you know what the best part

337
00:34:34,505 --> 00:34:36,941
of exercises in space is, the

338
00:34:37,008 --> 00:34:50,855
view.

339
00:34:50,922 --> 00:34:51,923
the structure of the

340
00:34:51,989 --> 00:34:53,324
international space station

341
00:34:53,391 --> 00:34:57,428
relies on these which withstands

342
00:34:57,495 --> 00:34:59,464
horses that they could counter

343
00:34:59,530 --> 00:35:02,233
in orbit, in this demonstration

344
00:35:02,300 --> 00:35:03,968
video, they explained the

345
00:35:04,035 --> 00:35:05,770
significance of these resilient

346
00:35:05,837 --> 00:35:07,338
structures in the different

347
00:35:07,405 --> 00:35:09,140
forces they are up against in

348
00:35:09,207 --> 00:35:30,294
zero gravity.

349
00:35:30,361 --> 00:35:31,496
Welcome aboard the space

350
00:35:31,562 --> 00:35:33,798
station, today we will talk

351
00:35:33,865 --> 00:35:38,836
about the space station.

352
00:35:38,903 --> 00:35:40,638
This is about 100 meters from

353
00:35:40,705 --> 00:35:42,573
side to side.

354
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:43,975
This is part of the whole

355
00:35:44,041 --> 00:35:46,210
integrated structure.

356
00:35:46,277 --> 00:35:48,379
They are used to support the

357
00:35:48,446 --> 00:35:49,947
array panel which provides

358
00:35:50,014 --> 00:35:51,749
energy for us and radiators

359
00:35:51,816 --> 00:35:53,551
which get rid of heat that

360
00:35:53,618 --> 00:35:54,819
builds up inside of the space

361
00:35:54,886 --> 00:35:57,421
senator, this involves triangles

362
00:35:57,488 --> 00:35:59,156
and beams which could be seen on

363
00:35:59,223 --> 00:36:00,291
earth in structures like

364
00:36:00,358 --> 00:36:01,726
bridges.

365
00:36:01,792 --> 00:36:03,261
Why triangle?

366
00:36:03,327 --> 00:36:04,795
Because this is the unique

367
00:36:04,862 --> 00:36:11,202
properties triangles are more

368
00:36:11,269 --> 00:36:13,237
rigid because they have fewer

369
00:36:13,304 --> 00:36:14,405
joints.

370
00:36:14,472 --> 00:36:17,008
A larger number of shapes the

371
00:36:17,074 --> 00:36:19,143
more prone it is to be impacted

372
00:36:19,210 --> 00:36:20,978
by shear forces.

373
00:36:21,045 --> 00:36:22,346
I would like to talk a little

374
00:36:22,413 --> 00:36:23,748
bit about the forces which

375
00:36:23,814 --> 00:36:25,816
connect these.

376
00:36:25,883 --> 00:36:27,685
The first that I want to talk

377
00:36:27,752 --> 00:36:30,621
about is compression force, this

378
00:36:30,688 --> 00:36:32,857
is just like it sounds, two

379
00:36:32,924 --> 00:36:35,326
things coming together, so this

380
00:36:35,393 --> 00:36:37,461
compression, what do you think

381
00:36:37,528 --> 00:36:40,598
is going to happen?

382
00:36:40,665 --> 00:36:43,968
Let me go right here.

383
00:36:44,035 --> 00:36:51,175
You can see, right here, what

384
00:36:51,242 --> 00:36:52,677
you think the opposite force of

385
00:36:52,743 --> 00:36:56,647
compression is #yes this is

386
00:36:56,714 --> 00:36:59,216
extension force.

387
00:36:59,283 --> 00:37:01,385
This is what will help ritualize

388
00:37:01,452 --> 00:37:03,154
the segment and it also could

389
00:37:03,221 --> 00:37:05,156
potentially pull it apart.

390
00:37:05,222 --> 00:37:06,591
I will not pull apart this tape

391
00:37:06,657 --> 00:37:08,225
measure because we probably need

392
00:37:08,292 --> 00:37:09,627
it later for some work that we

393
00:37:09,694 --> 00:37:11,562
are going to do.

394
00:37:11,629 --> 00:37:13,931
If you work look carefully this

395
00:37:13,998 --> 00:37:15,800
is basically like a twisted

396
00:37:15,866 --> 00:37:18,669
force called torsion and when I

397
00:37:18,736 --> 00:37:21,539
let go of this tape measure, you

398
00:37:21,606 --> 00:37:24,542
see what starts to happen, you

399
00:37:24,609 --> 00:37:26,477
start to see because the center

400
00:37:26,544 --> 00:37:28,779
is actually right here, where

401
00:37:28,846 --> 00:37:30,081
most of this tape measure is

402
00:37:30,147 --> 00:37:32,383
located, and when I let it go

403
00:37:32,450 --> 00:37:34,118
the tape measure its self starts

404
00:37:34,185 --> 00:37:40,324
to twist just a little bit.

405
00:37:40,391 --> 00:37:42,860
Now this could occur at a single

406
00:37:42,927 --> 00:37:46,197
point where to closing forces

407
00:37:46,263 --> 00:37:48,566
work on a single point.

408
00:37:48,633 --> 00:37:49,967
Just like on the Earth's

409
00:37:50,034 --> 00:37:51,335
surface, think about

410
00:37:51,402 --> 00:37:53,304
earthquakes, you could have a

411
00:37:53,371 --> 00:37:55,940
quake on a fault line which is

412
00:37:56,007 --> 00:37:57,875
when side moves up being forced

413
00:37:57,942 --> 00:37:59,577
off while the other side is

414
00:37:59,644 --> 00:38:03,981
moving downward, that for his is

415
00:38:04,048 --> 00:38:05,783
called the sheer force, and we

416
00:38:05,850 --> 00:38:08,986
could have that happen on our

417
00:38:09,053 --> 00:38:13,190
segment, something like this.

418
00:38:13,257 --> 00:38:14,825
One thing to think about is

419
00:38:14,892 --> 00:38:17,395
where these courses come from?

420
00:38:17,461 --> 00:38:18,996
When force even though we are

421
00:38:19,063 --> 00:38:22,533
right here in the atmosphere, we

422
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:27,038
have this atmosphere which is in

423
00:38:27,104 --> 00:38:29,740
the part of force on the trust

424
00:38:29,807 --> 00:38:31,909
segment in another I hinted at

425
00:38:31,976 --> 00:38:35,312
is we are up your exercising and

426
00:38:35,379 --> 00:38:36,681
moving heavy pieces of

427
00:38:36,747 --> 00:38:38,082
equipment.

428
00:38:38,149 --> 00:38:39,583
So we have an amazing

429
00:38:39,650 --> 00:38:41,252
engineering team on the ground

430
00:38:41,318 --> 00:38:43,854
and we have specific discipline

431
00:38:43,921 --> 00:38:45,723
in the job is to monitor all the

432
00:38:45,790 --> 00:38:47,158
forces on the international

433
00:38:47,224 --> 00:38:49,627
space station, they keep track

434
00:38:49,694 --> 00:38:51,162
of all of those forces I talked

435
00:38:51,228 --> 00:38:52,530
about and where they are coming

436
00:38:52,596 --> 00:38:55,232
from, and even things that the

437
00:38:55,299 --> 00:38:57,334
crew is doing at the space then

438
00:38:57,401 --> 00:38:59,537
station, and to make sure that

439
00:38:59,603 --> 00:39:01,972
they are significant enough to

440
00:39:02,039 --> 00:39:03,941
cause any damage to this living

441
00:39:04,008 --> 00:39:06,410
space which we have up here.

442
00:39:06,477 --> 00:39:08,012
Thank you so much for joining me

443
00:39:08,079 --> 00:39:09,947
today, we will see you next

444
00:39:10,014 --> 00:39:10,715
time.

445
00:39:10,781 --> 00:39:35,806
So long.

446
00:39:35,873 --> 00:39:38,109
One key to a successful long

447
00:39:38,175 --> 00:39:40,010
space journey is the ability to

448
00:39:40,077 --> 00:39:42,379
provide fuel for your engine and

449
00:39:42,446 --> 00:39:44,715
oxygen for your humans in the

450
00:39:44,782 --> 00:39:46,350
international space station has

451
00:39:46,417 --> 00:39:48,085
been home to many demonstrations

452
00:39:48,152 --> 00:39:50,154
of technologies designed to

453
00:39:50,221 --> 00:39:52,156
provide those critical supplies,

454
00:39:52,223 --> 00:39:54,959
previously, the exploration and

455
00:39:55,025 --> 00:39:56,694
in space services projects

456
00:39:56,761 --> 00:39:58,996
division at the goddard center

457
00:39:59,063 --> 00:40:00,931
showed as the first two versions

458
00:40:00,998 --> 00:40:04,101
of that refueling mission and in

459
00:40:04,168 --> 00:40:08,806
this, they focus on our RM

460
00:40:08,873 --> 00:40:13,377
three.

461
00:40:13,444 --> 00:40:16,981
Fourth generation now the red

462
00:40:17,047 --> 00:40:18,849
planet is within reach but how

463
00:40:18,916 --> 00:40:20,351
do we get there?

464
00:40:20,417 --> 00:40:22,019
At the key is in the details and

465
00:40:22,086 --> 00:40:23,687
in the technology.

466
00:40:23,754 --> 00:40:25,489
First and foremost, you need

467
00:40:25,556 --> 00:40:27,591
fuel this is not only true for

468
00:40:27,658 --> 00:40:29,627
getting to Mars before any form

469
00:40:29,693 --> 00:40:31,629
of exploration.

470
00:40:31,695 --> 00:40:33,597
Being able to replenish fuel in

471
00:40:33,664 --> 00:40:35,866
a journey means these amounts

472
00:40:35,933 --> 00:40:37,735
are not needed up front prenup

473
00:40:37,802 --> 00:40:38,969
space for other important

474
00:40:39,036 --> 00:40:44,341
things, enters the missions.

475
00:40:44,408 --> 00:40:46,410
This demonstration at the

476
00:40:46,477 --> 00:40:48,412
international space station in

477
00:40:48,479 --> 00:40:50,748
2018 has helped us to develop

478
00:40:50,815 --> 00:40:52,016
tools and techniques to

479
00:40:52,082 --> 00:41:13,003
replenish this in space.

480
00:41:13,070 --> 00:41:14,638
This has never been done before

481
00:41:14,705 --> 00:41:16,407
in space.

482
00:41:16,473 --> 00:41:19,577
These fluids can be used as

483
00:41:19,643 --> 00:41:21,846
life-support systems.

484
00:41:21,912 --> 00:41:23,647
Being able to replenish these

485
00:41:23,714 --> 00:41:25,583
fluids that run out otherwise

486
00:41:25,649 --> 00:41:27,284
known as consumable is an

487
00:41:27,351 --> 00:41:28,686
important part of the

488
00:41:28,752 --> 00:41:33,190
exploration map.

489
00:41:33,257 --> 00:41:35,059
This will land the first woman

490
00:41:35,125 --> 00:41:39,163
in the next man the moon.

491
00:41:39,230 --> 00:41:46,136
This has never been done before.

492
00:41:46,203 --> 00:41:49,440
First, we sent that have three

493
00:41:49,506 --> 00:42:00,985
main tools to the base center.

494
00:42:01,051 --> 00:42:01,652
.

495
00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:03,087
I took a small part in the

496
00:42:03,153 --> 00:42:06,290
refueling mission, and my job

497
00:42:06,357 --> 00:42:09,593
was to unload the components of

498
00:42:09,660 --> 00:42:13,130
the actual unit from our

499
00:42:13,197 --> 00:42:14,932
visiting vehicles and we took it

500
00:42:14,999 --> 00:42:17,801
into our Japanese module where

501
00:42:17,868 --> 00:42:20,371
we have an airlock and rape side

502
00:42:20,437 --> 00:42:22,139
that airlock we unpacked all of

503
00:42:22,206 --> 00:42:24,308
the boxes much like you would a

504
00:42:24,375 --> 00:42:27,478
piece of furniture so we

505
00:42:27,544 --> 00:42:28,846
unpacked all of that and we did

506
00:42:28,913 --> 00:42:30,047
that check out and we got

507
00:42:30,114 --> 00:42:32,216
everything assembled and we

508
00:42:32,283 --> 00:42:36,720
placed it into the airlock and

509
00:42:36,787 --> 00:42:37,755
then we put it outside of the

510
00:42:37,821 --> 00:42:40,691
international station so our

511
00:42:40,758 --> 00:42:43,460
involvement was the physical

512
00:42:43,527 --> 00:42:45,262
final assembly of the actual

513
00:42:45,329 --> 00:42:48,065
components.

514
00:42:48,132 --> 00:42:50,434
>> This was lifted to the space

515
00:42:50,501 --> 00:42:52,036
station on the company's 16th

516
00:42:52,102 --> 00:42:55,239
commercial submission and

517
00:42:55,306 --> 00:42:58,175
installed on the outside of the

518
00:42:58,242 --> 00:42:59,243
station.

519
00:42:59,310 --> 00:43:02,947
Dexter picked up the tools and

520
00:43:03,013 --> 00:43:05,449
put them on the payload.

521
00:43:05,516 --> 00:43:07,251
The ground operations team is

522
00:43:07,318 --> 00:43:09,219
now ready to begin operating the

523
00:43:09,286 --> 00:43:10,654
three tools to test how they

524
00:43:10,721 --> 00:43:11,789
work in space.

525
00:43:11,855 --> 00:43:14,391
For the first set of operations

526
00:43:14,458 --> 00:43:17,227
conducted in August of 2019,

527
00:43:17,294 --> 00:43:19,663
Dexter used one of the tools to

528
00:43:19,730 --> 00:43:22,399
prepare the modules interface to

529
00:43:22,466 --> 00:43:24,401
transfer the fuel.

530
00:43:24,468 --> 00:43:26,270
The second set of operations was

531
00:43:26,337 --> 00:43:29,773
then conducted in 2020 for

532
00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:31,875
these, they use the remaining

533
00:43:31,942 --> 00:43:34,812
tools to insert a hose and or

534
00:43:34,878 --> 00:43:37,214
open port in a nether inspection

535
00:43:37,281 --> 00:43:39,016
camel simultaneously to verify

536
00:43:39,083 --> 00:43:41,618
the position in the inside of

537
00:43:41,685 --> 00:43:43,487
the tubing.

538
00:43:43,554 --> 00:43:44,788
This marked the first time that

539
00:43:44,855 --> 00:43:46,890
they had tools in both arms

540
00:43:46,957 --> 00:43:48,125
working the same tasks

541
00:43:48,192 --> 00:43:50,194
simultaneously, these

542
00:43:50,260 --> 00:43:53,731
demonstrations at him from-added

543
00:43:53,797 --> 00:43:55,232
information on the storage in

544
00:43:55,299 --> 00:43:57,801
transferring project in space.

545
00:43:57,868 --> 00:44:00,137
It is currently still on station

546
00:44:00,204 --> 00:44:01,672
where it will conduct a final

547
00:44:01,739 --> 00:44:04,808
set of operation in mid- 2022.

548
00:44:04,875 --> 00:44:07,378
But getting to the mous moon and

549
00:44:07,444 --> 00:44:08,612
beyond fluids will be used as

550
00:44:08,679 --> 00:44:10,080
propellants to maintain

551
00:44:10,147 --> 00:44:13,283
life-support for astronauts.

552
00:44:13,350 --> 00:44:14,685
The atmosphere is made up of

553
00:44:14,752 --> 00:44:16,787
carbon dioxide which could be

554
00:44:16,854 --> 00:44:18,889
converted to liquid oxygen a

555
00:44:18,956 --> 00:44:20,591
type of fluid that could be used

556
00:44:20,657 --> 00:44:21,725
both as propellants propellent

557
00:44:21,792 --> 00:44:23,360
in breathing.

558
00:44:23,427 --> 00:44:25,262
Astronauts may be able to

559
00:44:25,329 --> 00:44:27,364
replenish their oxygen supply

560
00:44:27,431 --> 00:44:29,099
using compounds found in the

561
00:44:29,166 --> 00:44:30,834
atmosphere.

562
00:44:30,901 --> 00:44:33,303
A tool on the rover called Mars

563
00:44:33,370 --> 00:44:37,074
oxygen utilization experiment is

564
00:44:37,141 --> 00:44:38,675
sent to demonstrate the first

565
00:44:38,742 --> 00:44:40,144
ever conversion of the carbon

566
00:44:40,210 --> 00:44:42,579
dioxide into oxygen which is

567
00:44:42,646 --> 00:44:43,881
another important piece of the

568
00:44:43,947 --> 00:44:44,982
puzzle.

569
00:44:45,049 --> 00:44:47,184
In order to make a day stained

570
00:44:47,251 --> 00:44:50,020
presents a reality, humans and

571
00:44:50,087 --> 00:44:51,422
robots have to work together

572
00:44:51,488 --> 00:44:53,223
using technology like those

573
00:44:53,290 --> 00:44:56,226
developed.

574
00:44:56,293 --> 00:44:58,896
>> A lot of people ask about job

575
00:44:58,962 --> 00:45:02,733
is it to explore human-to ask

576
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:04,435
for outer space is a humans or

577
00:45:04,501 --> 00:45:06,470
robots in I think it is teamwork

578
00:45:06,537 --> 00:45:08,739
between the two and our

579
00:45:08,806 --> 00:45:11,442
exploration is not complete or

580
00:45:11,508 --> 00:45:15,546
possible without both.

581
00:45:15,612 --> 00:45:18,082
So, robots go further in a less

582
00:45:18,148 --> 00:45:21,418
expensive and they can go longer

583
00:45:21,485 --> 00:45:23,353
times they do not require

584
00:45:23,420 --> 00:45:24,755
maintenance you do not have to

585
00:45:24,822 --> 00:45:26,690
feed and care for them like you

586
00:45:26,757 --> 00:45:28,926
do if you send me back to space,

587
00:45:28,992 --> 00:45:40,971
so, the space telescope, humans

588
00:45:41,038 --> 00:45:42,673
do not have the capability to do

589
00:45:42,739 --> 00:45:43,874
this.

590
00:45:43,941 --> 00:45:45,509
There's something very important

591
00:45:45,576 --> 00:45:46,944
about humans wanting to know

592
00:45:47,010 --> 00:45:49,480
what it is like to be there.

593
00:45:49,546 --> 00:45:50,881
It is not enough for humans to

594
00:45:50,948 --> 00:45:53,617
take a picture of Mount Everest

595
00:45:53,684 --> 00:45:54,785
and said that is what it looks

596
00:45:54,852 --> 00:45:57,621
like the human condition is we

597
00:45:57,688 --> 00:45:59,857
want to explore we are born to

598
00:45:59,923 --> 00:46:01,525
say what if and what is beyond

599
00:46:01,592 --> 00:46:03,127
what we know.

600
00:46:03,193 --> 00:46:04,461
And what is it like to be there

601
00:46:04,528 --> 00:46:06,864
and so, the human side of space

602
00:46:06,930 --> 00:46:09,700
exploration first of all it is

603
00:46:09,766 --> 00:46:12,903
closer to earth, we have not

604
00:46:12,970 --> 00:46:15,506
sent humans as far as we have

605
00:46:15,572 --> 00:46:18,108
sent robotic probes.

606
00:46:18,175 --> 00:46:19,710
But they both have different.

607
00:46:19,776 --> 00:46:20,944
The cities.

608
00:46:21,011 --> 00:46:22,846
12 they are calling women

609
00:46:22,913 --> 00:46:25,415
explorers and it is a step

610
00:46:25,482 --> 00:46:26,917
towards helping NASA to enter

611
00:46:26,984 --> 00:46:28,385
that call.

612
00:46:28,452 --> 00:46:29,820
Although it sounds complex the

613
00:46:29,887 --> 00:46:31,688
idea is simple, having that I

614
00:46:31,755 --> 00:46:33,457
built ability to refuel will

615
00:46:33,524 --> 00:46:35,325
allow them to embark on further

616
00:46:35,392 --> 00:46:36,960
journeys to explore the depths

617
00:46:37,027 --> 00:46:44,101
of our solar system.

618
00:46:44,168 --> 00:46:45,502
Do you want another look at any

619
00:46:45,569 --> 00:46:46,637
anyone any one of the stories we

620
00:46:46,703 --> 00:46:48,305
showed you today.

621
00:46:48,372 --> 00:46:50,574
Find them all on YouTube and

622
00:46:50,641 --> 00:46:52,609
Facebook at those addresses on

623
00:46:52,676 --> 00:46:55,646
the screen.

624
00:46:55,712 --> 00:46:57,114
And there are different features

625
00:46:57,181 --> 00:46:59,183
on the variety of topics.

626
00:46:59,249 --> 00:47:00,450
To look around.

627
00:47:00,517 --> 00:47:01,985
If you are looking for a good

628
00:47:02,052 --> 00:47:04,421
conversation about spaceflight,

629
00:47:04,488 --> 00:47:06,723
check out Houston, we have a

630
00:47:06,790 --> 00:47:08,725
podcast of our show about all

631
00:47:08,792 --> 00:47:10,994
aspects of human spaceflight and

632
00:47:11,061 --> 00:47:14,064
masses explorations, today we

633
00:47:14,131 --> 00:47:15,265
have a great conversation

634
00:47:15,332 --> 00:47:17,034
previewing the science plan for

635
00:47:17,100 --> 00:47:20,204
expedition 66, in the talk with

636
00:47:20,270 --> 00:47:24,808
me in the the research lead.
