  • Duct tape!

  • is it me or is there something at 2:05.Top part.it looks like a ufo or could be the hubble parts.

  • Would being that high above the earth be fucking terrifying?

  • Typical man ... the solar panel won't fold up so they just throw it out in space. It's not bad enough that earth is filled with man's crap, now we're going into an infinite void and polluting that also. We must be so proud.

  • sooo they just used some duct tape to shut the door?

  • these astronauts have a kind of inspiring genius.

  • 2:13

    Hehe, reminds me of the iron rod in the Simpsons episod "Deep space Homer" ... It's all about improvisation up there.

  • haha nice

  • i would love to be a astronught, not spelt rite i know, but the trouble is i hate flying an am not very keen on heights so i would have to conclude this is not the perfect job for me, mabee i will just polish the space ship, mind how would i do the top cos they are very big you know, mabee a mop on the end of a stick an a powerfull hose pipe could do the job. i shall send my job app to nasa the moment i finish ramabling.

  • Sorry but if you really wanted to be one, you could at least spell it right. :)

  • being sick in space would be so horrible!

  • Yea, I wouldn't want vomit flying around while I'm sleeping, lol.

  • Comment removed

  • You're sick. Get some help.

  • dont worry slazar thats just how us 12- 14

    year olds talk these days trust me he isent 18 yet hes just a JKer

  • when was the first longest walk in history ?

  • superman is real cuz a comic book says so - by your logic...

  • religious freak!

  • The beginning and ending were too loud!

  • I want to go to space and have pizza

  • Astronauts have the best job in the world lol!

  • I dream of going to space one day.

  • i wouldn't what whould it be like 2 poop in space it pull the Poo out of u...eeeeew

  • Maybe, but "unofficial experiments" have proved that sex in space is much, much better. Any position, even acrobatic Kama Sutra poses are easy in space, no need to bother with who is on top, men last much longer without the pesky gravity, their down time between sessions is shorter. All that makes for great sex for both the man & the woman.

  • You poop down a tube, if you're peeing in space I think it would freaking hurt, cause it's sucking like a vacuum. lol

  • To bad that will never happen. Unless you already have an in at birth?

  • You and I both, my friend.

  • @rixille

    i did too when i was a kid... but somehow i grew up to be a chicken, now I'm scared when i really think about going to space....

  • and thats fastenating how? it didnt warp the stupid man sat on it...idiot lol

  • How does Zero gravity warp metal?

  • I'm guessing that gravity exerts certain forces on the piece, holding it in a certain position. If you take away the gravity, it is no longer held in that position, hence the warping.

  • probably cuz the materials were made in the presence of gravity so when there was no gravity along with extreme changes in temperature and vacuum it got warped. maybe hehe

  • the metal is made in our atmosphere so when the metal is in space the particals are warped

  • I had sex in the back seat of the Hubble when I was a mere young lad. WOOPDIEDOOOH :)

  • The Practice Pool should be scientifically designed so that it can truly represent space. i.e. without Earth's Gravity Force. Why is it so hard for Modern Science to create a Zero Gravity on Earth ? Anyone with this answer, I would love to know.

  • Gravity isn't fully understood yet. there's just no way, unless you're in freefall (google "Vomit Comet")

  • How about a pool filled with some kind of chemical that would float the Astronaut ? would that solve some of the G. problem ?

  • thats what the NBT is for....Neutral Bouyancy Tank. It's still the same gravity, dense things sink, but the astronauts are neutrally bouyant.

  • Thank you. I guess true G. will stay on this earth and there is nothing we can do about it.

  • I'm afraid so. This is a fundamental physics issue that no one has been able to "turn off."

    If it were so simple, It would very drastically cut down costs of getting things to orbit. (Rocket motors aint cheap!)

  • this is so interesting... sometimes u just overlook these astraunuts and thinking that they have an odd job but if u come to realize what they are doing, they are like living heroes in our generation.

  • could't agree more.

  • Hubble is like an old friend to these guys, I'm so jealous, but I love the videos!

  • Awesome

  • We have people writing about 'being left behind' on earth at the end of time so that we are now virtually walking in space makes one think It is more of a probility of being left behind than a possibility Kind of scary

  • They used blu tak?

  • whoa didn't knew working on 0 gravity would be so hard.

    I love to learn.

  • It's going to be awesome if they got loose from the panels. They'll be drifting into space. Lol.

    I agree. Use duct tape. It works for everything.

  • just as well that you have mega intelligent people for astranuts. if it had been me i would have said "fuck it".

  • bubble trouble!

  • i love this channel. ^-^

  • that is some scary shit. if they got cut loose from the connecting cable then they would either float of into space for eternity of come flying into the earths atmosphere at thousands of miles per hour and been atomised.also whilst they were fixing hubble, its amazing to thin that they were travelling at over 20 thousand miles an hour. thanks again NG :)

  • thanks NG !!!

  • PLUS ONE!

  • Good job guys, keep up the good work!

  • Oh, NG give me that Naked Science...

  • love it!

  • NG is amazing:)

  • wow, that is insane. 7 hours in space? I was thinking they were about to use some duct tape though. just kinda duck tape the doors shut.

  • yey duck tape!

  • National Geographic is pretty awesome, but I so prefer it when they touch on more taboo subjects and other cultures.

  • yall? are you like southern or something? bad comment, 20 thumbs down to you, YadaYadaguy.

  • National Geographic is the best
