00:01Well good morning and good afternoon wherever you are from the International
00:05Space Station on behalf of all of Expedition 73 we are thrilled to have
00:10you join us today for two very special ceremonies here on board. The first thing
00:15we're going to do is start off with a farewell from our crew crew 10 who will
00:20be departing here shortly from the space station at the completion of our mission
00:23and then we'll hand over to the ISS commander currently Takuyo Nishi who
00:29will initiate the change of command ceremony for ISS command to Sergei
00:33Ryukov so to start off crew 10 wanted to say farewell to everybody and as we
00:41complete our mission on space station we really want to lead with gratitude for
00:46the absolute privilege of getting to live and work aboard this amazing
00:50International Space Station all of us are keenly aware that we may never get to
00:54do this again and we've been very pensive over the last days of
00:59understanding what we have all got to be a part of and we know that there's some
01:03tumultuous times on earth and there's some people that are going through
01:07struggles all over all around and we want this mission our mission to be a
01:13reminder of what people can do when we work together when we explore together the
01:20foundations of this mission were laid long before any of us got here this is a
01:25short snapshot in time today in our mission but the International Space Station
01:30this international mission that has been going on for almost 25 years was made
01:35possible by visionaries who years before believed in something this massive I
01:42truly believe that this is one of the biggest feats of cooperation that humans
01:47have ever accomplished it takes people from every country all around the world
01:51every single day showing up to support this mission to make it happen and really
01:56we just get to be we had the privilege of getting to be here for a short period of
02:00that time but if we think back to 40 years ago when this idea was conceived and
02:05the international partnerships started to come together the atmosphere and the
02:11climate politically was very similar to what it is now it there's a lot of
02:15people that would say that's not going to be possible but all it took was
02:19visionaries from all around the world to work together to have a mustard seed of
02:23faith that something like this could be done when we work together crew 10 has had
02:30the absolute privilege of working here for the last four months and we have so
02:33much gratitude for all of the ground teams that showed up every day to make this
02:37possible we truly are very humbled to wreck it to represent humanity and we
02:45hope that we can be a reminder to others of the goodness and humanity and what we
02:50really can accomplish when we work together so for all my friends and family
02:57purse on a personal note friends and family I will see you soon without your
03:02support I could never do this every single day so thank you very much and we'll
03:06see you back soon on the greatest planet in the solar system we've checked we'll
03:11go back to earth here shortly I'm going to pass it off to crew 10 pilot Nicole Ayers

03:26Space Station I'm reflecting with a heart full of gratitude I think that it's
03:33been an amazing experience I'm grateful for the the ground team that put together
03:39this beautiful place that we call home without all of the flight controllers on
03:44the ground and the massive support system that we have across the entire world this

03:53world for everything you do grateful to our 73s crewmates you guys made it a blast up

05:19ground specialists all the workers engineers and scientists all over the world who made this flight
05:26possible not only this one but all the space flights without them we won't be here and I wish that
05:34it will
05:35continue this way for long long time thank you
05:43uh да на такое подсказывает что по-русски тоже было бы неплохо пару слов сказать ну скажу тоже самое
05:51очень рад провести здесь это чудесное время с такими чудесными людьми большое спасибо наземным всем
06:02services, starting from workers and end with constructors, those who made this
06:09flight possible. Thank you very much to all for your work and for the fact that you
06:16can do such great and great things as these flights and all the other
06:29следующие. So as I mentioned, as Anne mentioned, this is a combination of farewell and also the
06:37change of command ceremony. So my speech is going to be the, might be a little bit longer than the
06:42other folks. And it is hard to believe that it is time for us to go home. And it's a
06:50bittersweet
06:51moment to say goodbye to the rest of Expedition 73. And it's been a great time with my crewmates
06:58and also working with the highly professional teams on the ground. I'd like to take this
07:05opportunity to thank all the agencies, flight controllers and instructors and all the other
07:13folks on the ground who support ISS mission. And I would especially like to recognize
07:20our lead Houston flight director, Nicole McElroy, who demonstrated her excellent leadership and she
07:30made our mission so productive despite some changes in the incremental traffic plan. So Nicole, thank you
07:40so much for your dedication to our increment. And I am also very thankful to my crewmates for making my
07:49days
07:49here joyful. Anna, you did a great job in leading USEVA 93 and facilitating the action for mission. Those two
08:01events are the highlights of the first half of Expedition 73. And Nicole, your enthusiasm has had a very
08:12positive effect on all of us and on the mission. And Kirill, having a crew member who has a great
08:22sense of
08:23humor like you means a lot. So you are such a delightful person. And Johnny, you are one of the
08:31most diligent
08:32people I've ever met. So I have 100% trust in you as the next US segment lead. And Alexei,
08:41it was always my
08:43pleasure to talk with you. You are always smiling and you're always joking. So I love to spend time with
08:52you.
08:52So thank you so much for your friendship. And Sergei, as the segment leads, we talked a lot and always
09:01helped each other. So without your help, it would have been much more challenging to be the commander of
09:09the ISS. So thank you very much. And Zeena, Mike and Kimia, Alexei, I wish we could spend more time
09:18together. But you are in good hands. So I'm sure the second half of Expedition 73 will be even better.
09:27And we there are so many things we have we don't have here, but there are so many things we
09:36can only
09:37get here. And the time I spend with you guys is definitely one of those things. So really appreciate
09:44it. And crew 10 is now leaving, but the science will continue here because this place is the outpost
09:54for human beings to advance our technology and to explore further. So now I am very happy to hand over
10:04the command of the ISS to you, Sergei.
10:34Dear friends, dear colleagues, taking responsibility for station commanding. I am full of expression and I would like to
10:49to note that our Expedition 73 took place on an anniversary year. We together celebrated 15th anniversary
11:05of first joint international space flight, Apollo-Soyuz, and first handshake in space.
11:12We are going to celebrate 25th anniversary of international space station flight in man boat.
11:23And history shows that in our beautiful planet, people unfortunately cannot
11:35understand each other anytime. But in space, we can cooperate effectively.
11:45And I'm so thank you, everybody, for this nice four months together. And I wish you have a safe trip
11:59home.
12:02And I would like to say that we will continue the program. We will do it as productive and
12:12fun and safe as possible. And have a safe trip. Expedition 73, go forward. Godspeed. Thank you.
12:34Dear friends and colleagues, I am.
12:38My command of the station.
12:40I would like to mention that our expedition is on the holiday season,
12:46which we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the plane plane,
12:54which we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the plane plane of Apollo,
12:55the first plane of the plane plane in the cosmos.
12:56We are going to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the International Space Station in the pilot mode.
13:08Unfortunately, people on Earth can't often understand each other.
13:14But 50 years of history shows that our cooperation in космос can be effective and productive.
13:26We thank our friends, who spent these amazing 4 months on orbit.
13:35We wish them a good return home.
13:37We try to make the remaining part of the expediation of the maximum effective, interesting, safe and safe.
