>> STATION, THIS IS HOUSTON.
ARE YOU READY FOR THE EVENT?
>> HOUSTON, THIS IS STATION.
I AM READY FOR THE EVENT.
>> ESA, THIS IS MISSION CONTROL
HOUSTON.
PLEASE CALL THE STATION FOR
VOICE CHECK.
>> STATION, THIS F HOW DO YOU
HEAR ME?
>> I HAVE YOU LOUD AND CLEAR.
WELCOME.
>> GLAD TO SEE YOU HEAR.
IT IS ALWAYS REALLY FINE TO SEE
YOUR SMILING PRESENCE ABOARD THE
SPACE STATION.
WE ARE IN NAPLES IN THE
BEAUTIFUL AUDITORIUM OF THE CITY
OF SCIENCE WITH STUDENTS AND
PROFESSORS WHO ARE IMPASSIONED
WITH THE SPACE.
SO WE ARE HERE ON THEIR BEHALF
AND TO WELCOME.
AND WARMTh AND AFFECTIONATE
GREETING TO YOU.
WELCOME ABOARD TO ALL OF YOU WHO
ARE FOLLOWING US FROM THERE IN
THE CITY OF SCIENCE AND ALL OF
THE OTHER PERSONS WHO ARE WITH
US AND STREAMING AND PLEASURE TO
HAVE THIS DIALOGUE WITH YOU.
I AM IMMEDIATELY GOING TO ALLOW
THE STUDENTS TO ASK YOU
QUESTIONS.
HELLO.
WHAT STUDDED DIS AND SPECIAL
EYES OR WORK EXPERIENCE NEEDED
TO HAVE A CAREER SIMILAR TO
YOURS?
HELLO.
WELL, LET'S SAY THAT I THANK THE
FOUNDATIONS OF MY TRAINING ARE
FREE.
ONE IS THE TRAINING AND
SCIENTIFIC TRAINING AND
SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL AND
ENGINEERING AND YOU CAN STUDY IN
SOME AREA LIKE THAT SO YOU CAN
WORK AND ENGINEERING AND AND/OR
SCIENCE AND ALSO TOOK A TRAINING
COURSE AS A MILITARY PILOT,
LET'S SAY, THAT ENABLES US TO
PUT IN TERMS OF THE WORK
EXPERIENCE SO ANYONE WHO WANTS
TO CERTAINLY FOLLOW A SIMILAR
COURSE AND ALSO THE
POSSIBILITIES TO ENGAGE IN WORK
WITH EXPERIENCE AND WE DO, FOR
EXAMPLE, ENGAGE IN THE PROLONGED
PERIODS OF RESEARCH AND EXTREME
CONDITIONS SUCH AS THE BASIS
SUCH AS THE COLLEAGUE ALEXANDER
AND ALSO INTERNATIONAL
EXPERIENCE THE CUSTOM OF WORKING
WITH OTHER PEOPLE FROM OTHER
COUNTRIES AND LANGUAGES.
>> HELLO.
HELLO TO EVERYBODY.
I WOULD LIKE TO ASK YOU-- WILL
SPACE EXPLORATION MAKE
INTERPLANETARY SOCIETY OR WILL
REMAIN EARTH?
>> THAT IS SOMETHING THAT GOES
INTO SCIENCE FICTION.
I DON'T THINK IT WOULD HAVE ANY
CONFIDENCE THAT NOTED TO BE ABLE
TO ANSWER CLEARLY AS TO WHAT THE
FUTURE WILL BRING AND GREAT
THINGS ARE POSSIBLE AND WE SHALL
SEE WHAT THE FUTURE BRINGS US.
>> HERE IN NAPLES I WOULD LIKE
TO KNOW WHETHER-- I WOULD LIKE
TO KNOW WHETHER ASTRONAUTS WHO
WHEN THEY RETURN TO EARTH FORGET
THEY ARE SUBJECT TO
GRAVITATIONAL PULL AND LIKE TO
KNOW WHETHER THEY FOR EXAMPLE
AND DROP OBJECTS THEY ARE
HOLDING AND GETTING AND STILL
FLOATING IN THE AIR AND THINKING
IT WOULD BE STILL FLOATING IN
THE AIR.
AND I CAME CLOSE AFTER A FEW
HOURS AND NOTICED THE DOCTOR WHO
HAD BEEN MONITORING AND SHE MET
ME AND ARRIVED AND BRIDGET WITH
HER NAME AND GAVE ME TELEPHONE
TO MAKE THE CALL HOME AND PUT IT
DOESN'T AND MADE JEST DURE THAT
YOU DO AND LET THE OBJECT BE
TRANSMITTED TO SENSELESS AND
EXTENDED MY HAND AND THE LAST
SECOND I DID NOT RELEASE THE
TELEPHONE AND DID NOT LET IT
FALL.
>> HELLO.
>> THEY TAUGHT US THAT
IMPORTANT TO PRODUCE FOOD AND TO
REGENERATE AIR AND WATER AND TOP
GIVE 2:00 PSYCHOLOGICAL COMFORT
TOT THE CREW.
IF CUE MY QUESTION IS: IF CUBE
GIVEN THE POSSIBILITY TO LOOK
AFTER A PLAN RIGHT NOW, WOULD
WITH YOU PREFER ONE THAT YOU
COULD GROW AND EAT IT ALL OR
PARTLY SUCH AS LETTUCE,
TOMATOES, CARROT OR WOULD YOU
RATHER A FLOWER FOR DAYS SUCH AS
THE PRIMROSE AND THE TULIP, THE
VIOLET.
LET'S SAY REALLY DON'T HAVE THE
GREEN THUMB, WAY SO LIKE A PLANT
WOULDN'T NEED A LOT OF CARE, BUT
I WOULD BE ABLE TO GROW
SUCCESSFULLY AND IF I HAD TO
CHOICE, I WOULD SAY, I DON'T
KNOW.
IS VERY BEAUTIFUL TO HAVE A PLAN
SET TO ADMIRE SO LET'S SAY I
WOULD NOT WAVE THE BEAUTY OF A
FLOWER WITH IN FAVOR OF LETTUCE
BUT ON THE OTHER HAND, I TO LOVE
TOMATOES VERY MUCH SO MAYBE I
CHOOSE TOMATOES.
MAY YOU CHOOSE THEM.
>> A TAPE, HE WE KNOW THAT
STUDENTS LEARN BETTER IN THE
LABORATORY ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO
ARE HAVING PROBLEMS.
>> THANK YOU FOR THE WORK THAT
DO YOU AS TEACHERS WHICH I
ADMIRE VERY, VERY MUCH AND
ABSOLUTELY YES, I THINK THAT
PARTICULAR SCIENCE SHOULD BE
TAUGHT THROUGH LABORATORY-BASED
COURSES BUT SOMETIMES, WE TAKE
LEARN SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE AND
WE CAN VALIDATE THEM HOWEVER IN
A BOOK AND ALSO GIVE THEM TO THE
BOYS AND GIRLS TO STUDY THEM AND
IT WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE THOSE
GO JOINTLY WITH COURSES THAT
ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY TO HELP
HUMANITY AND TO HAVE THEM, HAVE
AN IDEA OF HOW UT IS AND SCIENCE
TO DEVELOP IMAGINE AND INTEREST
AND THE SERVICE TO HUMANITY AND
GET WITH THE INTERESTING TO
FOLLOW AND TO LEARN WHAT THREATS
OF KNOWLEDGE BROUGHT US TO THE
KNOWLEDGE THAT WE HAVE REFLECTED
IN BOOKS THEN TO TRANSMIT TO
THEM, THAT THE PROCESS IS
UNFINISHED AND NOT THAT WE KNOW
EVERYTHING AND BY ANY MEANS.
GREAT THRILLING COURSE THAT IS
FOLLOWED.
>> HELLO, SAMANTHA.
THIS IS FROM ANTONIO.
IMAGINE ANY EXPLORATION
CHALLENGE TO HIDE
COUNTERMEASURES YOU SHOULD FEAR
AND HOW DO YOU MAINTAIN CONTROL
HAS THERE BEEN A TIME WHEN YOU
COULD NOT GO AND WHAT IS THE
MOST DIFFICULT SITUATION YOU
EVER FACED ON A SPACE MISSION.
HOW IS IT HANDLING INDIANA.
>> THESE ARE SO MANY QUESTIONS.
AND EACH ONE OF THEM WOULD NEED
TO BE IN-DEPTH AND I THINK THAT
EVERYBODY IN OUR MIND, WE
UNCONSCIOUSLY ENGAGED IN RISKS
EVALUATIONS AND WE FACE THOSE
RISKS THAT WE CHOOSE TO FACE AND
WHICH ONES ARE BENEFICIAL THAT
ARE ALSO PART OF OUR IDENTITY
AND SO WE ARE NOT INCLINED TO
DISCUSS THOSE AND FOR EXAMPLE TO
GO TO SPACE TO BECOME AN
ASTRONAUT IS THE FUNDAMENTAL
PART OF MY IDENTITY AND IT IS A
WAY WHICH AM BUILT MY IDENTITY
THEN THEREFORE, IT IS NOT
SOMETHING THAT I AM GOING TO BE
PLACED ANDY! IN DISCUSSION
WITHIN MYSELF SO LET'S SAY, WHEN
I EVALUATION RISKS
UNCONSCIOUSLY, THE BENEFITS ARE
MUCH GREETER THAN THE RISKS
COULD BE.
AND THEREFORE, I DON'T KNOW WHAT
I OFTEN DO 3:00 AND FOR EXAMPLE,
IF SOMETHING CAN HAPPEN, I THINK
OF THE WORST THINGS THAT COULD
HAPPEN.
THERE FORMER I GO AHEAD AND PULL
FORWARD.
THIS IS FROM FRANCISCO.
WE HAVE BEEN HEARING ABOUT SPACE
TOURISM AND GIVING PEOPLE THE
CHANCE FOR PEOPLE TO LIVE IN
ORBIT FOR FEW DAYS KNOWING ALL
THE DIFFICULTIES INVOLVED IN
SPACE TRAVEL WITH REGARD NEEDED
AND ENVIRONMENTAL
SUSTAINABILITY.
DO YOU THINK IT WILL BE POSSIBLE
TO MAKE SPACE A TOURIST
DESTINATION?
>> YES, I THINK SO.
>> I THINK THAT CONDITIONS WILL
BE SUITABLE CONDITIONS AND WILL
BE CREATED AND A COMPLEX,
SOMEWHAT OF A COMPLICATED
ENVIRONMENT AND PLACE TO BE IN.
WE ASTRONAUTS OF COURSE HAVE A
LOT OF FACES AND AWARE OF THE
COMPLEXITY OF THE ENVIRONMENT IN
WHICH WE FIND OURSELVES AND ONE
CAN DEVELOP A PLATFORM COULD BE
UTILIZED FOR TOURISM IF WE WERE
TO USE THIS NAME TO BRING
PLEASURE TO THOSE AND WOULD
COULD DEVELOP IT IN THAT REGARD
SUITABLE FOR THAT ENDEAVOR FOR
LEISURE TRAVELERS WHICH WIN SOME
WAY OR THE OTHER PERHAPS WOULD
WITH NO NOT BE SO DIFFERENT WHAT
FROM WHAT WE ARE DOING NOW AND
FOR PEOPLE YOU GO TO EXOTIC
LOCATION WHO LIVE OUT THE SPIRIT
OF ADVENTURE AND A LOT OF THESE
TO DO AT THIS TIME THAN IT USED
TO BE IN THE FUTURE IT WOULD BE
A DEVELOP THAT WOULD MAKE SPACE
TOURISM VIABLE OPTION.
I WOULD LIKE TO SAY DO THE
PHYSICAL PREDISPOSITIONS OR
MENTAL ABILITIES AND IRON WILL
AND RESILIENCE.
WAS AS DIFFICULT FAR WOMAN TO BE
ACCEPTED IN THE, WOG WORLD THAT
IS CONSIDERED MORE FOR MEN BY
MANY PEOPLE.
WELL, HELLO.
IN TERMS OF PHYSICAL CONDITIONS
AND DEMANDS AND ALL SORTS OF
CONDITIONS OF DEGRADATION OF
HEALTH THAT ASTRONAUTS ARE
FORCED TO FACE WITH EVEN IF WE
TALK ABOUT THE PREVIOUSLY
INCREASED ACCESS OF SPACE AS
ASTRONAUTS HAVE ASTRONAUT AND
RECRUITMENT PROGRAM FOR PEOPLE
WITH DISABILITIES AND THESE
STRINGENT CONDITIONS REGARDING
HEALTH LITTLE BY LITTLE WE THINK
WILL BE OVERCOME OR REDUCED.
FOR THE TIME BEING, THESE ARE
IN TERMS OF YOU ARE WORK BE
WHERE WE THINK THERE IS A
RELAUNCHING.
WE NEED REMAIN IN GOOD HEALTH
AND GOOD PHYSICAL SHAPE
CONDITION SO WE CAN LEARN THINGS
INCLUDING KNOWLEDGE AND
COMPENSATORY AND WHAT IS EVEN
MORE IMPORTANT AND REFERS TO
EVERYTHING IN TERMS OF
PSYCHOLOGY, AND THE TEAM WORK
AND SHARE AND THE LIVING SPACES
ON A 24-HOUR BASIS.
>> HELLO.
EVERYBODY.
MY QUESTION IS, SAMANTHA, YOU
ARE A PATRIOT.
IN ORDER TO BE CARRIED AWAY BY
DREAMS, YOUR FACE IN THE BOOKS
AND WILL BE WITH IN THE HISTORY
BOOKS.
HOW DOES THIS ALL MAKE YOU FEEL?
DO YOU FEEL RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL
OF THIS ADMIRATION AND TRUST
THAT SOMEBODY PLACED IN YOU?
HOW MUCH DOES THIS GIVE TO YOU
PUSH YOURSELF FURTHER AS MODERN
DAY?
I WOULD LIKE TO ENCOURAGE A
CAUTION BECAUSE IT IS RISKY TO
PUT PEOPLE ON TOO HIGH OF A
PEDESTAL AND SO I THINK, I HAVE
DONE SOME THINGS WELL IN LIFE,
BUT AT THE SAME TIME, I AM A
HUMAN BEING LIKE EVERYBODY WITH
DEFECTS AND LIMITATIONS THEN I
THINK IT IS ALWAYS IMPORTANT
WHEN WE LOOK AT PERSON AND THERE
ARE MANY PEOPLE I ADMIRE TO
REMEMBER THIS TRUTH ALSO THAT
EVERY HUMAN BEING HAS SHADOWY
AREAS AND WE ALWAYS TRY TO LEARN
FROM PEOPLE WE ADMIRE TO SEE IF
WE CAN PERHAPS TRY TO IMITATE OR
TO BE INSPIRED WITHOUT THINKING
THAT WE ARE PERCENTS WHO ARE
IDOLS FOR EXAMPLE THEN I THINK
IT IS IMPORTANT TO MAINTAIN THIS
PERSPECTIVE BECAUSE OTHERWISE,
THERE IS A RISK OF THINKING THAT
PEOPLE WHO ARE FAR AWAY WHO ARE
TELEVISION IN BROOKS SOMEHOW
THESE ARE PERSONS WHO ARE
PERFECT 3:00 AND THIS PERHAPS
JUST MAKES US UNDER VALUED THE
THEM INTO WE ACTUALLY MEET IN
REAL LIFE FACE-TO-FACE FROM
WHICH WE CAN LEARN A LOT AS WELL
BECAUSE THEY ARE PERSONS BUT
SINCE WE HAVE MODEL, IDEAL MODEL
OF PEOPLE WHO WE DON'T KNOW AND
THE PEOPLE WE DO KNOW AS RESULT
SEEMS TO BE LESS SEASONED AND
SO, SIGNED ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO
LOOK FOR OUR OWN HEROES WITHIN
PEOPLE TO ADMIRE ALSO WITHIN THE
EVERYDAY LIFE AND FACE-TO-FACE
RELATIONSHIPS.
VERY OFTEN IN MY LIFE WHEN
PEOPLE ASKED ME WHAT I WAS STUDY
AND ANSWERED AEROSPACE
ENGINEERING.
SOME OF THEM LOOKED AT ME
WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN SPACE THAT
YOU ARE GOING SOMEWHERE ELSE FOR
NOTHING AS MUCH AS TRIED TO
ARGUE THAT WINDOWS NOT EXCLUDE
THE OTHER, I AM NOT THE ONE
ASKING YOU WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO
THE PEOPLE WHY WHY IS IT BOTHER
INVESTING IN SAYS NO WELL, THE
SPACE ENVIRONMENT TAKE OVER ALL
INCLUDES I AM THE PROFESSION
THAT ARE OPEN TOP STUDENTS AND
THE SPACE RELATIONSHIP AND VERY
VAST FIELD TO INCLUDE SO MANY
ASPECTS SUCH AS HAVING DIRECT
IMPACT ON THE LIFE ON EARTH AND
ALSO, ALSO, IN PARTICULAR, FOR
THE MANAGEMENT OF REGRET MAJOR
PROBLEMS OF AN ETHICAL NATURE
AND CLIMATE CHANGE FOR EXAMPLE
AND THESE REFER TO AS, OF
COURSE, WE ARE AS TO ULTIMATE
ABILITY TO SOLVE ALL OF THESE
STRICTLY THROUGH RESEARCH BUT
APPROACHES AND RESEARCH ADDED
VAULT VAL U TO COUNTRIES AND
INDUSTRY AND TO KEEP IT IN THE
VAN GUARD AND SO I THINK MONEY
THAT HAS INVESTED IN SPACE IS
NOT MONEY THAT APPEARS TO SPACE
AND BUT IT IS MONEY THAT IS
WITHIN OUR ECONOMY AND WITHIN
OUR SOCIETY AND OUR GENERAL
KNOWLEDGE OF LIFE ON IN
PARTICULAR AND HUMAN EXPLORATION
OF SPACE AND THE OBJECTION ONCE
UPON A TIME WAS THE DESIRE TO
EXPLORE OUR SOLAR SYSTEM AND
THIS IS SOMETHING THIS IS SORT
OF A NICHE THAT MAKES USES A
DREAM THAT ALSO IMPORTANT TO, IT
MAKES US DREAM.
AND IMPORTANT ON THAT SENSE AND
1,000 PROBLEMS WE HAVE TO FACE
AND PROBLEMS CERTAINLY MORE
IMPORTANT HOWEVER WE SHOULD NOT
FORGET, I THINK, THE THINGS THAT
MAKE US DREAM.
THANK VERY MUCH.
WE HAVE TIME FAR LAST QUESTION.
HELLO.
WHAT ARE THE FIRST SENSATIONS
EMOTIONS THE FIRST THOUGHTS
THAT WHEN YOU REALIZE ON THE
LAUNCHPAD YOU ARE ABOUT TO LEAVE
FOR SPACEFLIGHT.
IT HAS SYMBOLIC VALUE BECAUSE
THAT MOMENT OF CLOSING AND THERE
IS THE END OF THE ENTIRE
TRAINING AND PREPARATION THE
COURSE OF EVERYTHING THAT WE
HAVE BEEN DOING PRETTY MUCH OUR
LIVES IN THE BEGINNING AND THIS
ADVENTURE OF THE MONTHS IN SPACE
THAT ARE ABOUT TO BEGIN TO
TRANSFORM US INTO
EXTRATERRESTRIAL HUMANS AND VERY
INTENSE EXPERIENCE OF BEING A
PART OF A TEAM AND THEN OPEN UP
TO A GREAT SENSE OF PREGNANCY
GREAT SIGNIFICANCE.
THANK YOU.
THE NAPLES THANKS YOU AND
GREETS.
THANKS ALL.
A GREETING TO YOU IN NAPLES,
NAPOLI AND TO ALL OF THOSE WHO
HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING US ON
STREAMING AND THEN, BANE, ALSO,
GREETINGS.
BYE.
BYE, SAMANTHA.
>> STATION, THIS IS HOUSTON ACR.
THAT CONCLUDES THE EVENT.

PARTICIPANTS FROM ESA.
STATION WE ARE NOW RESUMING
