00:00I come alive when I'm in orbit.
00:05It's like my being should be in space.
00:10Some people are born to be cowboys and ride a horse.
00:14I'm born to ride a rocket and be in space.
00:18And there is NASA astronaut Don Pettit flying in to the International Space Station.
00:23Science of Opportunity happens on Earth. It happens anywhere.
00:30There are scientists, engineers, ubergeeks that are tasked with doing some programmatic work in a laboratory.
00:39And because you are there and you can, you get an idea.
00:44It's not on the script. It's not part of the program.
00:47But you get an idea.
00:49So the science of opportunity happens anywhere.
00:52There are people thinking about advancing our knowledge.
00:57And the same thing happens on space station.
01:01Wow.
01:03That's good.
01:05And then that rogue drone just came in from some place and then it went someplace.
01:10Whoa. Look at that.
01:15I have been working with ice.
01:18I'm freezing and thawing these crystals and looking at the front between the different crystals.
01:26The kind of research we do on space station is research where gravity has a major factor in the equation.
01:37Looking at Earth's horizon and our atmosphere on edge is truly a unique sight.
01:47You can also point your camera more zenith and you could look at Milky Way structures.
01:54Images from space help tell the story to people on Earth that don't have the opportunity to go into space.
02:07So the photographs help complete the story of what it means for human beings to expand into space and expand into this frontier.
02:19I'm given that more and more.
02:20But there are more than that, of future dreams.
02:21I've been feeling the best for you to participate in the next tier.
02:22Moon.
02:23I'm given a third tier.
02:25Thanks for your life.
02:26On the other tier.
02:27There are two tiers.
02:28Two tiers.
02:29I'd like the opportunity to come to the next tier.
02:30One tier.
02:31Amen.
