 for Biorack we have a good view of Spacehab and Elena 014 step 12 that actually needs to be started about 10 minutes before the timer goes off so that you are at the appropriate sub step which is sub step 10 when the timer goes off and we copy I want to give you a little tour of mirror I'm Jerry Leninger of course and I'm in the base block where you see most of the pictures that come out of mirror the table where we all gather to eat when the time is available got quite a bit of gear have a little sleep cabin over this way and Charlie's going to have a hard time flying with all the cords so but he's going to do the best job he can given the circumstance but inside the sleep cabin there's also a little window that you can look out with good earth observation sleeping bags sitting right here this just happens to be the commander's sleep station and he's got a little mirror he's got some personal pictures pens patches mirror 23 patch for example decorating his walls got a CD player little tape players to relax and take life easy so this way the commander normally sleeps we have interesting this is actually a little tool area where you can pull the table down and do some pretty heavy pounding it's a good solid steel surface and comes in very handy when you're doing repair work that one of the air generating systems is here and also the CO2 cleaning system is here as long as they with a blocked rednessy which takes out contaminants in the air and all those run in this module and this is also a module where we're having some cooling leak problems and we did some repairs where we cut to and basically block them off with some plugs and as you can see it's very difficult to work the area has to get cleared we had to totally clear it for about four weeks looking for the leak and it's very very difficult to work back here we're able to find one leak but we still have some problems so Mike's gonna have his hands full working back here finding the leak is one thing and then getting access to the leak is a different ballgame by the way the fire I guess is kind of interesting people heard about the fire the fire was basically in this region here with the flame shooting across this way and therefore as you can see where the camera is is basically where I was at and we had one other body in front of me I was passing the fire extinguisher but we only get one person in here like the fire because of the flame location and at that time the other Soyuz was on the other side where progress is now so you can see it would have been very difficult to get through the flame itself to get to the one of the rescue vehicles and it was very difficult to fight the fire because you could only give one body close enough to the fire itself visibility in here was basically no visibility and where Charlie is with the camera right now it was you could sort of see your fingers if you looked hard so it was very very dense smoke and interesting experience something you don't want to repeat a course but fire in space is a different sort of entity then fire down on the earth is what I learned through that experience well you're hearing right now is the the system right over here which is the CO2 cleaning system and a ventilator right next to it the ventilators aimed at it because one of the repairs that we did right here which is of course interesting and commander facilities here and facility says hello to everybody doing a little work at the command post that is a scope down here a couple CRT tubes enters a lot of different commands in this area and over here is actually your signal is that yeah or your panel that gives you all of your caution and warning alarms fire extinguishers are here and they're located there at every module final piece of gear and the things that I think pretty much saved our lives of these oxygen breathing devices and during the fire of course that had to go on quickly so they're located in nice location and we've been resupplied and everything's in place on the last progress this is my little corner at the moment for the greenhouse experiment greenhouse will show you in a minute it's in another module called the crystal module but when we grow these basically we're trying to grow plants over a period of a month cycle from one seed planting through a pollination through a flowering and then through harvest of the seeds and then a replanting of the seeds I hope to do this with special as it can be bought engineer on this flight and do this over a period of about 90 days three cycles this is a glove box that came from Ames and we'll use this glove box to do all the very fiddly tricky operations of the seeds and the fixations with chemicals the major part of my experiment put on the outside of the station it's a sprawling station when you're doing an EVA it's not like being inside the the concave surface of the payload bay and instead it's convex the whole way you feel like you're falling the entire time it feels like the space station itself is falling to the point of free falling parachuting it gives you that sensation pretty much the whole time throughout and when it gets dark you definitely don't want to be moving on the surface when it gets dark that instant you are basically blind until your eyes adjust maybe three or four minutes later than you start seeing some of the form of the space station but when I say it gets dark it gets dark to the point where I've never seen dark as dark as the instant the sun sets and you're out there on the outside of the space station falling even in the dark it feels like you're falling for some reason on the surface of the space station it is also very crowded with experiments with solar sensors and of course with the big solar arrays and at many times I was fairly trapped and could not go one way or another the handrail in front of me had an experiment attached that was maybe a meter or two across and so there were no options to go anywhere so on the surface getting from point A to point B was not a straight line by any means there was a lot of dead ends along the way and at one point actually to find our way back to the to the hatch to come back in Vasili and I both pushed off as far as we could try to get a broader perspective because you have just like I feel right now you have things all around you you can't see the big view you're kind of the trees and you can't see the forest and this is a Soyuz rescue vehicle right now and the hatch is right here so it's a tight squeeze I'll just demonstrate getting in but it's not a easy way to get in this little vehicle and right now I am in the the round ball that you normally see the living section okay this table very nice soft Velcro and I found this the most effective place to do work if I had surface sampling or air sampling I'd organize my work right here put everything in nice order and then fly to the place where I had to do the sampling and Johnny I want to show you here is part of a tea house freezer unit which we pulled out yesterday because builds up ice around it and if you can look down here on the floor this thing is just soaking with water and I've been using Jerry's old exercise equipment and underwear which I expect he's going to throw away I hope he does I've been using it to wipe up all the water on this on this freezer unit water everywhere is a problem and it does collect in the strangest places generally over here Jerry and I have been kind of Jerry's been using this area as a wash area while we've been doing our handover and he's probably going to clean out this side I just been living on this side of it as a general principle I think the goal is to reduce how much water we use and how much wet towels we leave around because of the water problem convincing on pipes everywhere so I'm going to try and minimize all of the wet towels as you all know John and Shannon worked quite a lot with the greenhouse it's called spet in Russian and I'm going to be working with this on this with special as you can as I say we're doing a seed to seed experiment which has never been done before in space taking basically rapeseed it's related to broccoli and growing down over a cycle of 30 to 40 days three times we hope during my mission and this is where Shannon and John did their harvesting right now you can just see loose pieces floating around I have a massive bag that I'm going to be unpacking and organizing to set this up again with a new gas exchanger and new root modules that fit in the lower part of this orange rare as they call it or greenhouse Mike I've come up on an ideal of the tight spaces that we work in so when Mike's doing this experiment with Sasha they're going to be stacked up like this a lot of times and a lot of old gear and that's why we really appreciate all the efforts of the people on the ground to get here out of here and I for example EDLS on the late call this morning it's a great call we got another locker open so great work we'll appreciate it for about out of time I just want to thank you all for your attention and I hope you've got a feel for the space station as we flew you through it it's a pretty pleasant place to live when you can get a space to look like this Robert just like to say that this is a great day for us a little bit sad of course because a thrilling flight is coming to an end and we're gonna have to separate the vehicles here tomorrow morning and that'll be a bit of sweet memory for us we've had a great time getting Mike ready to take over the place and fill the big shoes that Jerry's left behind here with a lot of progress being made on board we've had a great progress towards making things work better for our joint science program and we're happy that we were able to pull it this is Marsha Dunn of the Associated of Press again for a Dr. Leninger I'm wondering do you plan to try to walk off the shuttle upon landing or would you just prefer to be carried off as your predecessor was and do you think that curtailment of exercise about a month ago is going to affect your rehabilitation? Marsha I've been working very hard since that time and we've had we've solved that problem with the CO2 and so I've been able to exercise very strongly every day I've got Carlos over here who's a Marine and I'm gonna have him yelling my ear to get up and walk so I plan on walking off the orbiter. This is Irene Brown with EPI also for Dr. Leninger I'm knowing what you know about life on mirror would you repeat the experience and is there anything that you would bring with you if you were going up for a second time? A fantastic experience we've met all our goals accomplished all the tasks spent a tough time and when you get through something like that a major adventure major exploration we still have a critical phase to go to the re-entry of course but when I get back on earth any adventure like that where you come close to pushing the envelope and survive it's a great adventure and in retrospect I have no regrets whatsoever something I would have brought is just more plain old photographs of my family and when progress resupply vehicles came up that was the best gift I had is pictures of my son. This is James Mates from ITN of London Michael Ful what do you think of the physical condition of mirror now that you've seen it and do you have any worries about spending the next four months or so up there? The first question is basically the condition of mirrors is one of varied newness or oldness depending on where you are the place where we are right now the base block was launched 10-13 years ago and the new elements were launched only a year ago so as you go around the space station you find some things that are really quite quite old they've had to be replaced one or two three four times and in other places where it looks brand spanking new. As for my worries I don't really have many right now the thing which we have to concentrate on is how the the systems of the mirror will work and I'm going to be helping Sasha here on my right and the city commander on the left over there basically with some of the repairs and some of the basic operations of this station but as long as we keep working hard with the ground and we keep the supplies coming we can keep maintaining these things. Could you outline the possible problems that you think might arise and the steps that you have taken in advance or how you will cope with them when they do arise? I think probably the biggest problem that's being worked continuously now by by by asking the the soup the control center in Moscow is that of a cooling system and there's a number of different cooling loops that carry cooling refrigeration fluid around the station and some of those have leaks and there's one outstanding remaining leak just behind us actually behind the flag here in a compartment called front and Sasha and Vasily especially will be working on the pipes there to try and isolate that leak. However the systems that depend on that that cooling system particularly the system that squads the carbon dioxide from the air now have other means of getting rid of their heat I mean in particular using directed airflow so there are always workarounds being found and I have some faith in the ingenuity of both us here on the station and the people on the ground to keep these things going. Did you discover unsafe dangerous parts or systems of the space station and for how many years do you think the security of mere can be guaranteed? I think that's the hardest part or the most difficult part of all this it's very hard to predict the future of mechanical systems the main thing to do is maintain them to the best of your ability to replace parts when you can and we did the best we could over the last four and a half months to get the station back into good shape I anticipate that we will have problems in the future and then Michael be challenging my crewmates will be challenging the future as far as how long it can last depends on how much you're willing to keep preparing and how often you get the right parts up here and also building in maybe a little redundancy to some of the systems if one system fails you back it up with other systems and other means to provide what you need oxygen for example. We'd just like to say to the control center and all the folks in phase one all around the Johnson Space Center at Kennedy Space Center and all of NASA colleagues in Russia European Space Agency and the soup in Moscow everyone that has participated in this a giant team has put together a very very successful mission it was a privilege for us to be out executing it for you as you planned it did superbly and we're really proud to have been able to be part of it. Hi Charlie this is Phil and it's really great to look up with the screen here and see all you guys together you know it takes a lot of months to put one of these together and get a lot of folks here glad to see the final result and this picture on the screen right here is really heart warming for everybody you guys have done a fantastic job up there. The silly and Sasha who become our wonderful friends they've let us share their wonderful home and we thank them very much for that and with that in mind we'd like to leave them a small gift from us. It's a t-shirt one for each of them with our game of our shuttle and our crew patch. The silly. Thank you very much and also one for Sasha a momentum you can remember our flight. And also from phase one the phase one folks would like to leave there thanks also with the crew of here. It's a phase one show representing our program which has been so successful. Houston Rossi is ready to close the hatch and we wished him well at a great flight and it's kind of sorry to see them close the hatch on ourselves here but we're sure they're gonna do great.
