00:00just a reminder about this view this is coming from a GoPro camera mounted on
00:04the tip of one of Orion's four solar arrays each solar array has a camera
00:09mounted on it and the bandwidth is limited due to we have a crew on board
00:14and this is our first flight of crew aboard the Orion spacecraft so having a
00:19crew means we have to have an environmental control and life support
00:22system there's a lot of data around a lot of data to bring down for the crew
00:29members to keep us up-to-date on everything happening aboard the
00:33spacecraft so we have to share our bandwidth when it comes to imagery and
00:37data
00:41Houston integrity for SITREP first of all I'll just talk about the experience that
00:49I had during Victor in my observation time it was an incredible experience we
00:55definitely noted how much more you can see with the zoom lens even though we
01:00have a great visible eye image there's just a lot of texture that just pops right
01:07out at you when you can zoom in so almost just using it like a telescope the camera
01:11lens we really enjoyed our discussion time that was a great innovation on the
01:15lunar targeting plan we were both able to describe a lot more kind of with slow I
01:22would say when we were talking to each other and it was also we sort of were
01:27able to bounce ideas off of each other and come to new conclusions we had I think a
01:33very successful talking through of some contacts between different color areas
01:37both in the mare and in the highlands and we identified some really unique
01:42texture areas as well at one point towards the end of the images of my time in
01:50window three I just had an overwhelming sense of being moved by looking at the
01:55moon it lasted just a second or two and I actually couldn't even make it happen
02:00again but something just drew me in suddenly to the lunar landscape and it
02:06became real and the truth is the moon really is its own unit body in the universe
02:14it's not just a poster in the sky that goes by it is a real place and it when we
02:21have that perspective and we compare it to our home of the earth it just reminds us
02:26how much we have in common everything we need the earth provides and that in and of
02:31itself is somewhat of a miracle and one that you can't truly know until you've had
02:37the perspective and of the other I'll switch into some logistics stuff the Peltors both their
02:46batteries stopped providing the active listening but we we have verified they are
02:51still recording and so we are able to have discussion time and hear outside our recordings
02:58by just moving the ear cup off of the ear other than that everything is working well technically
03:03and we've been able to find all our targets and we're having a really great time
03:10thanks Christina we copy those logistics for the Peltors and also thanks for bringing us into the
03:17cabin with you with that description
03:21that call from Capcom Jenny Gibbons CSA astronaut and Artemis 2 crew back up to the crew aboard Orion
03:28letting them know that they will need to remove the window shroud they had placed on
03:32window four they initially placed that shroud there to block out some of the light from
03:37the earth it was extremely bright coming in the cabin and interfering with some of
03:42their viewing opportunities out at the moon this was a request from ground teams to
03:52ensure that they are protecting other systems and the crew has been offered the
03:56opportunity to use something else to cover the window meanwhile Reed Wiseman and Jeremy Hansen continue with
04:08their lunar flyby observations they have just looked at glushko crater that's about when we heard that call
04:15down from Christina cook with that description of everything she had been seeing during her her observation period and what
04:24she was seeing at that time
04:27the science team asked this crew to take centered images of the entire crater and their ray system in one
04:34frame
04:38they're also interested in knowing the brightness texture and extent of glushko's rays and how they differ in the mare
04:45or that sea area versus the highlands
04:52glushko is considered a young lunar crater and these observations can help understand material properties of those craters
05:04science integrity first I wanted to start off with connecting with what Christina said that it was very moving to
05:11look out the window
05:12so I had the unfortunate sequence to start looking out the window and then moved to the long lens and
05:21it was hard to speak looking through the zoom
05:26because I went straight where Christina went and I was walking around down there on the surface climbing and off
05:32-roading on that amazing terrain
05:35I also want to underscore something that she said as we continue to explore when we actually do go down
05:41there to the surface I know for safety reasons
05:43that we would never send someone alone but I just want to really emphasize how important the discussion time was
05:49when we started to talk
05:50we not only got better science discussion we got better human connection and so doing this as a pair we
05:57just learn and grow together
05:59and that's just super important so thank you for adding that to this plan
06:03Reed just passed me a note that the oriental basin angular ring has a similar albedo to the center but
06:11a different color
06:11it has more brownish tones in it and he said it's very distinct now that he's been staring at it
06:20Victor thank you you got a cheer from science there and we all just went on that moonwalk with you
06:28so
06:29highlighting how important it is to talk about these things
06:31I also want to let you know that we have Deanna Glover with us in the viewing gallery she's all
06:37smiles
06:45well you just got a bunch of cheers up here hey babe
06:49I love you from the moon
06:53we love that we got a hey babe too and we also have one of your lovely daughters here
06:58watching you guys work
06:59thank you guys for doing that and for supporting them through this
07:11and to all of you Genesis, Maya, Joya, and Corinne I love you and Deanna I love you I'm glad
07:17you get to be there
07:19we've had some really sweet words from the crew members aboard Orion today as their families have been able to
07:24filter in and out of the viewing room
07:26here at Artemis Mission Control at Johnson Space Center in Houston
07:30Victor Glover also giving a great science sit rep and just a description of how it must
07:36feel if you were down on the lunar surface while he was looking through that 80 to 400 millimeter zoom
07:41lens
07:43he also expressed how important it was
07:46to be able to talk through that real time
07:48with Christina cook and stress the importance of that on future missions
07:52that it not only made their discussions better but also more human
07:55we start eerily不erem
07:56there we
07:56are
07:56still working
07:56that
07:57is
