  • Hey it's me Destin

  • welcome back to Smarter Every Day.

  • I want to be an astronaut

  • so I love taking tours of the International Space Station online.

  • But there's a problem.

  • Every time I do this I can't get my bearings.

  • It's like without gravity my main reference frame has been stolen from me

  • and I can't tell up from down and I get turned around

  • and I'm just confused.

  • Scott Kelly just took command of the International Space Station

  • as part of his one year tour.

  • But before he left he took just a couple of minutes to walk me around

  • one on one inside the mock up at Houston.

  • Immediately after taking this tour with Scott Kelly

  • I now know the International Space Station to a whole new level.

  • I know where I am in relation to where they sleep

  • or where they draw blood

  • or get ready for space walks

  • or where they poop

  • or where they store the experiments.

  • I know all that stuff now,

  • just from seeing a video on the space station

  • and I really enjoy it.

  • I'm going to take you on the exact same tour that I took with Scott

  • only I've made it better.

  • In the bottom left part of the screen

  • I'm going to include a video game style radar

  • so that you know exactly what module you're in

  • what your position is

  • and what your orientation is.

  • You're gonna be the white dot

  • and Scott Kelly is the red dot.

  • In the bottom right hand part of the screen

  • I'm gonna add annotation links here

  • so that if at any point you want to go up on orbit

  • and see what it's like in orbit,

  • you can do that.

  • Just click the annotation.

  • I'll also leave links in the video description.

  • OK you ready?

  • The International Space Station is big

  • so try not to fast forward.

  • If you can watch this whole thing at one go

  • you won't get disoriented.

  • We're gonna start exactly where Scott Kelly's

  • space craft docked to the ISS

  • and we're gonna let him walk us all the way through

  • to the Japanese module.

  • Let's get Smarter Every Day.

  • OK we're in the ISS.

  • This is where you dock?

  • - Yeah so this is the Russian segment and a much higher fidelity mock up

  • in Russia, but there's a module that comes out of the top of the space station

  • here called MRM2. My Soyuz will dock to that.

  • The other Soyuz's are docked in other parts of the Russian segment.

  • That's the service module down here.

  • This is the FGB.

  • It's a Russian built module but the United States owns it.

  • It's mostly for cargo stowage.

  • - That's a lot of carpet. Is it a fire hazard?

  • - It is linked for velcro and stuff but ah..

  • - Gotcha.

  • Alright.

  • - But ah..

  • Yeah we're walking from the aft part of the space station forward.

  • And here is the front part of the Russian segment

  • where we'll be going into the US segment,

  • we'll go outside first.

  • - So we're going into.. is it Unity is the first module?

  • - Yeah Node 1.

  • - OK

  • - Although it's interesting the crew members don't

  • really refer to them by those names like Unity and Destiny,

  • we'll say Node 1..

  • - Got it.

  • - And ah.. Laboratory module.

  • But this is node 1.

  • This is kind of a,

  • as the name describes it's an adjoining module for other things but,

  • this is kind of where the crew members on the US segment eat

  • and the Russians will eat here sometimes

  • we'll have a galley rack here to fill your drink bags,

  • little refrigerator things, food warmers.

  • - Got it.

  • - Over there is node 3.

  • Very important..

  • - That's where the cupola is right?

  • - Yeah the cupola's in there,

  • we can run in there real quick.

  • - Yeah.

  • This is where you're gonna take all the photos

  • that you're gonna send back to us right?

  • - Yeah a lot of them we take them from here.

  • There's also a window in the US lab module

  • that's pretty good and the Russians have some good

  • windows for Earth observations

  • but the cupola's down here

  • so there'll be the Earth.

  • This is our exercise device

  • or low fidelity mock up of it,

  • for resistive exercise.

  • - I just realized,

  • the bathroom is right beside the cupola.

  • - Yeah so the cupola, this exercise device,

  • the toilet on the US segment

  • and our treadmill are all within a few feet of one another

  • and they're all at different orientations so someone

  • running on the wall,

  • someone using the bathroom in this orientation,

  • and sideways on the ARED makes for a pretty interesting picture.

  • - Yeah. So one thing I didn't realize is that when we're taking these

  • beautiful images of Earth that people on Earth can relate to so well,

  • you're probably smelling what just went down over here.

  • - It's not that smelly.

  • - That's good. That's good.

  • That's pretty awesome.

  • So this is, this sounds like the most fun segment.

  • - Yes this module is very important

  • and it's also important because it's got a lot of the life support systems in here.

  • Oxygen generating system that converts water into Oxygen on the US segment.

  • Um, it has the processor that converts our urine into water.

  • It also has one of our carbon dioxide removal assemblies which kind of

  • filters the carbon dioxide out of the air.

  • - Do you guys still use lithium hydroxide?

  • - We do that as a backup

  • so if these two things,

  • the one here and the one in the lab,

  • a similar piece of hardware,

  • if they didn't work eventually we'd have to

  • use lithium hydroxide.

  • The Russian segment has a Vozdukh but that can't support six people

  • so at some point you'd be using the lithium hydroxide cannisters.

  • - Sweet.

  • - Hopefully we'd just get them fixed.

  • - Good deal.

  • - Through this little hole here

  • the hatch is closed but..

  • Someone probably had training here..

  • That would be the airlock where you would do

  • US space walks from.

  • - Got it.

  • - And then go into the US laboratory module.

  • - I notice that node right there has,

  • it seems like the most space,

  • it's the most spacious you can move around.

  • - Yeah you know in space though we have a lot more hardware in here.

  • - Got it.

  • - Than we do in these mock ups.

  • But this is the US laboratory module.

  • Also has some life support equipment inside.

  • It's kind of like the main module of the space station,

  • kind of like the bridge of the ship if you could have that kind of analogy.

  • We can fly the robot arm from here.

  • And also fly it in the cupola.

  • Then we have a lot of science racks

  • so we do a lot of the US science in here.

  • The glove box,

  • we have a minus eighty degree laboratory freezer,

  • we have three of these on board

  • but these are for some of our science..

  • - That's where you like snip off pieces of yourself and stick them in there kind of thing right?

  • - Yeah there's human samples go in there,

  • other science samples.

  • The other two of these are in the Japanese module.

  • This is where robonaut lives.

  • And then as you go into..

  • still going further forward,

  • we have node two.

  • This is where a lot of our visiting vehicles dock.

  • The shuttle docked forward.

  • The HTV or Cygnus or Space X dragon vehicle

  • dock to the bottom or the top.

  • It's also where our,

  • forward and top will be where the US crewed vehicles will be

  • at some point.

  • We live in here,

  • we sleep in here.

  • So three of the crew members sleep in the US,

  • or four of the crew members sleep in the US segment.

  • The three..

  • - You'll have one here as well right?

  • - Yeah the coffin is on the floor,

  • we call it.

  • When you float by it looks like someone sleeping in a coffin.

  • If you want to get in there,

  • I'll film you in there.

  • - Oh sure.

  • So this is..

  • Is this gonna be your bunk?

  • - Actually it is.

  • So I'll be in the port side.

  • It's pretty spacious.

  • - It is, it's pretty good.

  • I notice there's some sound dampening in here as well.

  • Can I see this real quick?

  • - Absolutely.

  • - So is this, I assume this one ethernet jack is your connection to the ground?

  • You have two.. You'll have two computers in here.

  • It provides power and data,

  • so you'll have a..

  • One what's called a CSL laptop

  • that gives you some kind of intermittent internet connectivity

  • and also another computer where you have your email

  • and other applications that you use.

  • But you'll have a lot of personal items in here,

  • your sleeping bag will be on the wall.

  • So you kinda sleep in here floating.

  • It's actually not bad, you know.

  • In micro gravity it's not a bad bedroom.

  • - Yeah it actually sounds kind of cosy.

  • I like the sound dampening.

  • - So going further forward

  • the Columbus module which is the ESA science module,

  • so we do a lot of science in here.

  • Also have some stowage in this module.

  • This module's unique on the space station.

  • - Am I allowed to walk in here?

  • - Absolutely.

  • - I notice you've got.. You'll have racks on the ground and the ceiling so..

  • - Yeah we utilize all the space

  • so a lot of science racks.

  • A lot of our human research is done in here.

  • We draw a lot of the blood samples in here,

  • ultrasounds are done in here.

  • Here's a mock up, actually a picture, it's not really a mock up,

  • of where our ultrasound hardware is hooked into.

  • We have a centrifuge for

  • centrifuging our blood

  • before we put it in the freezer.

  • We have some other gas analyzers and systems

  • that provide certain gas compositions for some of the experiments.

  • - Real quick dumb question.

  • When you're looking back,

  • that's the JAXA Kibo node in front of us right?

  • So when you're looking down here after you've been spinning around

  • in here doing science, how do you orient yourself,

  • there is no down so do you think along the axis of the space station?

  • Does that become your datum?

  • - Most of the modules are kind of oriented in the same way.

  • - I notice the words always point a certain way.

  • - Yeah so usually the lights are on top and the labels

  • are in kind of this orientation

  • so you generally live in this kind of,

  • "this is the floor and this is the ceiling"

  • based on the lighting and how the labels are written.

  • However in some modules like the PMM

  • it's clocked differently so you go in there you've got to spin around.

  • It takes a little while for your gyro to engage

  • but.. you know people are used to lighting from above

  • so it's really generally the lighting that describes

  • or sets the orientation.

  • - Yeah so some little haptic clues.

  • I don't even know if that's the word but I know what you're saying.

  • - So this is JAXA we're going into?

  • - Yeah so this is the JPM.

  • The Japanese Pressurized Module.

  • One of the other science modules we have.

  • We do a lot of science in here as well.

  • Different science racks.

  • This isn't really a good mock up of how this looks on the inside.

  • We don't.. when we have our science training

  • we generally don't do it in here.

  • We have a facility that'll have a almost fully functional

  • mock up of the science rack we have so..

  • - Got it.

  • - this is just more for like emergency..

  • - So these racks are modular right?

  • You can just pop them out?

  • - Yeah we can move them in and out,

  • bring them up on HTV or some of the other cargo vehicles.

  • - Got it.

  • - And as we go further forward

  • the Japanese part of the space station

  • has a robot arm with an exposed facility outside

  • that allows us to move science payloads..

  • - That's the back porch, isn't it.

  • - The porch.. the side porch.

  • - Oh is it. Gotcha.

  • - And then they have an airlock.

  • We can also move stuff in and out.

  • You can't put people in here but you can put hardware in here

  • to get it in and out of the space station.

  • - That's nice.

  • - And then a big closet up overhead.

  • - That's just where you throw all the junk.

  • - Yeah.

  • - Yeah, well thank you for your time.

  • I know you've gotta go, go to Russia.

  • - My pleasure.

  • - Be safe, and..

  • - Let's walk out this way and we can walk around.

  • - Sure.

  • Alright. So I'm Destin.

  • You're getting Smarter Every Day.

  • Thank you very much for Scott Kelly's time.

  • You're like a national asset at this point

  • so it's a big deal that we got this tour.

  • So have a good one. Bye.

  • So there you go.

  • Anytime from now on you see a video from

  • the International Space Station

  • I hope you know where you are in relation

  • to where everything else on the station is.

  • It's really cool, I enjoy it,

  • I really hope you do too.

  • I want to say thank you to the patrons who support

  • Smarter Every Day on Patreon.

  • In this particular video

  • not only did you pay for my flight out there,

  • but that little radar thing in the bottom corner,

  • you made that happen.

  • It's really complicated.

  • We had to motion track my camera position relative to a wire frame

  • of the space station for every single second of the video.

  • There's no way I could have done that on my own

  • and you patrons made that happen.

  • So if youre interested in supporting cool stuff like that in the future,

  • patreon.com/smartereveryday

  • I'll leave a link in the video description.

  • I hope this added value to your life.

  • If so, please consider subscribing.

  • If that ain't your thing, no big deal.

  • I'm Destin,

  • you're getting Smarter Every Day,

  • have a good one.

  • Are there reaction wheels on station?

  • - Yes.. no, well not reaction weels..

  • - Control moment gyros.

  • - Control moment gyros and only..

  • - Did we just become best friends?

  • - And only an engineer would know the difference.

  • - Did we just become best friends?

  • - We just became best friends.

  • - [laughs] Yes.

  • - And the neat thing is, once you become this level of best friends,

  • now you can sit and talk about the advantages and disadvantages

  • of reaction wheels versus control moment gyros.

  • - After karate in the garage of course, right?

  • - Yes.

  • - [laughs] I just had that conversation with Don Pettit.

Hey it's me Destin
