1
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:15,960
This is me,
Luca Parmitano, as a child.

2
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,120
Flying has always been my passion.

3
00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:21,960
SICILY, ITALY
1980

4
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,880
I think we all desire what we see.

5
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,680
I grew up with cartoons,

6
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,520
American ones,
but especially Japanese

7
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:07,480
about space, robots and great
explorations in this accessible universe.

8
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:11,320
While in the real world,

9
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:15,480
the first Space Shuttle missions

10
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,840
were being broadcast on TV.

11
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:21,360
Time!

12
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,800
One of
my earliest memories

13
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,440
is being asked
what I wanted to be when I grew up,

14
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,320
and, as a child, I said: an astronaut.

15
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:42,960
I said it with the same spirit a child
today says: Superman or Batman.

16
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,000
It was the same idea.

17
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,560
But that idea

18
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:56,360
of a job that is unique, wonderful,
fun, adventuresome,

19
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,840
has stayed with me all my life.

20
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:05,160
As years passed,
I became more humble, modest,

21
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:09,800
but at present I am the only Italian
who has walked in space,

22
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,480
the first to command
the International Space Station.

23
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,400
A child growing up in Sicily,

24
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:24,640
somewhat the outskirts
of Italy and Europe,

25
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,640
grows up far from
the reality of space technology.

26
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,640
In Sicily there are no structures

27
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:34,280
that connect you to the aerospace world.

28
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,200
So, I drew away from the idea.

29
00:02:38,920 --> 00:02:45,600
I was brought close to the idea of flying
when I was an adolescent.

30
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:53,400
That's when the path began taking shape

31
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:57,040
which, 30 years later, led me to wear

32
00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,120
a spacesuit for the first time.

33
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,520
I went to Russia in 2010
for the first time.

34
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,080
I have a special tie to this country.

35
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:28,320
Russia started training
military personnel in 1960

36
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:32,080
and has sent 120 cosmonauts into space.

37
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:33,840
The first man...

38
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,320
and the first woman.

39
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,880
The city of stars...

40
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,760
The first group
of cosmonaut candidates

41
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,000
arrived in Moscow to start training,

42
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:23,840
but in July 1960
the unit was moved here,

43
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,400
15 miles from Moscow.

44
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,800
A top secret area.

45
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:37,600
It's a closed military area
surrounded by walls and a gate, it still exists,

46
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:43,560
and was built for
the Soviet Union Cosmonaut Program

47
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,680
in the late 1950s, early 1960s.

48
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,960
The first selection of cosmonauts
lived and trained here,

49
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:55,160
among whom Yuri Gagarin, Titov,

50
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,160
Aleksej Leonov and so on.

51
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,720
In the last ten years,
since I became an astronaut,

52
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,040
I've seen continuous change.

53
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,960
I arrived here in the winter of 2010.

54
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:19,640
There was no supermarket,
there was one Soviet-style shopping mall

55
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,280
with very little to buy.

56
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:27,920
You had to leave Star City
and go to a nearby city.

57
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,040
It furnishes much more now,

58
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:40,800
but the original atmosphere of Star City
has almost been lost,

59
00:05:40,840 --> 00:05:46,400
what I remember of my first years,
my travels and training here in Russia.

60
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:59,720
We're entering via a service gate
because a cosmonaut just re-entered.

61
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,720
The building is in two parts,
one is isolated, for quarantine,

62
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,440
and one for the others living here.

63
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:12,720
This is the "Prophylactoryum",
another historic building in Star City.

64
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,520
This is the hall on the third floor,

65
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,720
the floor for European astronauts.

66
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:33,360
All European astronauts
have lived in these rooms,

67
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,160
at various times in their training.

68
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:43,600
The first time I came here,
nearly ten years ago, I had room 31,

69
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,160
this time I preferred number 34,

70
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:51,600
because it's closer to the coffee machine
and the bed is more comfortable.

71
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:01,320
Yuri Gagarin was the first man
in space and he departed alone.

72
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:05,440
Now there are three of us leaving:
me, Italian and European,

73
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:09,920
Alexander Skvortsov,
a Russian cosmonaut

74
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:13,520
and Andrew, called Drew,
an American from NASA.

75
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:18,080
This strengthens the friendship
and cooperation already among us on Earth.

76
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:24,920
This statue of Yuri Gagarin
hides a flower behind his back.

77
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,160
Yuri Gagarin is this great hero
in the USSR

78
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,840
in the 1960s he was the first man
to fly in space,

79
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,600
but his nature remained
that of a man on Earth

80
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:40,520
with a flower symbolizing
the odors, tastes, colors of the Earth

81
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,200
which he saw from space
for the first time.

82
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:47,800
I never thought
I'd become so long-winded over time.

83
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,760
Andrew, help me out!

84
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:57,160
Mister, Doctor,
Colonel Andrew Morgan, called Drew,

85
00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:03,240
will be my second-in-command during Expedition 61,
when I take command of the Station.

86
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:08,320
We've known each other since 2013,
working together during these years,

87
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,360
but, during this last year and a half,

88
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:16,480
we've trained together
in the United States, Japan, in Europe,

89
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,840
underwater,
hours and hours of work together.

90
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,160
So, when we leave on July 20th,

91
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,480
I think we'll have a really good time.

92
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,960
Yes, I agree.

93
00:08:38,560 --> 00:08:41,200
I should have brought my guitar, man.

94
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,080
Ladies and gentlemen...

95
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:50,360
# Superman!
La la la la, Superman! #

96
00:08:52,840 --> 00:09:01,280
# Superman!
La la la la, Superman! La la la la, Superman! #

97
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,200
According to Russian tradition,
after the training phase

98
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:32,200
begins the theoretical phase
which ends with practical exams.

99
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,080
There are two phases to the exams:

100
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:40,600
the commander and the pilot of the Soyuz

101
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:45,240
must take individual exams
before a commission

102
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:49,280
to show they are able
to intervene manually in the phases

103
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:53,760
of flight with the Soyuz
that are most complex, dangerous.

104
00:09:54,360 --> 00:10:00,920
The first is the approach, the second
is contact with the Station, the docking,

105
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,520
and the third is the re-enter phase.

106
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:19,240
It is tradition
to sign a large book after the exam,

107
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,320
in Gagarin's office.

108
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,080
Everything here is exactly as it was
on the date and time of his death

109
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:30,800
on March 27, 1968,
at just 34 years of age.

110
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,480
Let's go. It's our bus.

111
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:03,120
Before leaving, every astronaut
lays a carnation at the Kremlin wall

112
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,800
where Yuri Gagarin's tomb is.

113
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,880
It's a tradition
and a mandatory gesture.

114
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:58,400
These days are the last with my family
before our departure.

115
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,800
Then I will enter quarantine
and be able to see them

116
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,800
only through a window,
however, at a distance.

117
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,600
Being a father...

118
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,720
should be a full time job

119
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:21,160
and for which no training exists.

120
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:26,040
We start from zero
and the moment our children are born,

121
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:30,440
we must already be professionals
and take the situation in hand.

122
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:36,080
There can be no training,
because each child is a different world.

123
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:41,600
It's normal that distance creates stress.

124
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:44,800
In my experience, the only way

125
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:49,360
to relate to our children,
to maintain that relationship,

126
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:53,080
is open communication from the start,

127
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:58,120
to help them see that to stand by them,
physical presence isn't necessary.

128
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,200
Loving one's own children means

129
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,040
giving them the certainty

130
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,600
of your being there for them
when they need you,

131
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:12,640
creating a virtual place

132
00:13:12,680 --> 00:13:15,360
in which to take refuge at anytime.

133
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,160
Sure, it's the hardest thing to do.

134
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:24,240
My role as a father
is to give them the map,

135
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,440
the means to be able
to realize their dreams.

136
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:31,400
My task will be to urge them on,
encourage them,

137
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:35,280
give support, offer a hand,
but not give the direction.

138
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,040
I miss everything about Italy.

139
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:45,080
I left Sicily at 16 to go to America,

140
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:49,120
right after that
I entered the Air Force Academy.

141
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,960
I left Italy definitively
in 2007 for France,

142
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,040
then Germany and finally,
the United States.

143
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,560
I feel the distance.

144
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:06,440
I miss the Sicilian sea
with its scents, its colors,

145
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:11,560
but I'm the result
of the life choice I made

146
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,680
and so, I don't stand here reflecting

147
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,880
and complaining.

148
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,160
When I go into space, I fly!

149
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,560
And I'm going to America!

150
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:43,360
The Americans went to the moon,
I want to go to America.

151
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,000
That's what I said as a child
and so it was.

152
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:57,520
When I first arrived in America,
I was still in high school.

153
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:02,120
Now my daughters study here and I work,
have worked, at NASA

154
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,320
here in Texas.

155
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:18,280
Today what we're gonna do
is a quick shakeout run.

156
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:22,600
- What this will do is keep your body lose.
- Alright. Let's do this.

157
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:29,640
To be Ironman still winning the title
is fantastic.

158
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:34,920
For those active in this sport,
the Ironman Triathlon is a unique event.

159
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:36,600
Hi, everybody!

160
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,640
- How are things?
- Fine. Hot?

161
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:46,080
Hoof!

162
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:55,320
I decided to prepare
for Ironman while I was still in orbit, in 2013.

163
00:15:55,360 --> 00:16:00,480
There's physical deterioration after a mission,
and a long rehabilitation period.

164
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:04,240
I wanted to show it could be done
within a year after returning to Earth.

165
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:18,520
Who could have guessed
that for sport, I'd have swum 2.4 miles,

166
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:22,160
biked 112 miles
and ended with a marathon?

167
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:27,920
Here I calculate the time
for a full race.

168
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:38,600
I'll describe a typical lunch.
It really is my typical lunch.

169
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,600
I don't know if other athletes do this diet.
I don't think so.

170
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,680
One measure of nuts,

171
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:47,640
I think they're called Brazil nuts,

172
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,520
pumpkins seeds, two measures.

173
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:57,200
I hope Italian food-lovers
and international chefs aren't aghast,

174
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,080
but this is my lunch.

175
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:03,600
My eating habits have changed
through the years and will again.

176
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:25,480
The launch is one year away,
I'm ending the theoretical part of my training,

177
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,520
now, at last, the practical part begins.

178
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:45,040
A spacesuit is called an EMU,
Extravehicular Mobility Unit.

179
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,480
It's comprised of about
18 thousand parts.

180
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,440
The outside layer is puncture resistant,

181
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:08,240
it protects from extreme changes
in temperature, solar radiation

182
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:13,200
and micrometeorites, that travel
more than 27 miles per hour.

183
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:16,520
And I'd add:
what a hole without it!

184
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:21,080
A spacesuit is
the most expensive attire in the world,

185
00:19:21,120 --> 00:19:23,840
it costs about 15 million dollars.

186
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:30,520
Among the materials used for the outside
are: nylon, neoprene and Gore-Tex.

187
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:34,280
Underneath we wear a special garment

188
00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,240
that is called LCVG,
Liquid Cooling and Venting Garment,

189
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:42,920
covered in cooling tubes
to the length of about 300 feet.

190
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:48,560
And we use cooled water
to maintain a constant body temperature

191
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:52,560
during extra-vehicular activity,
or EVA.

192
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:59,080
A spacesuit permits
the dispersion of body heat,

193
00:19:59,120 --> 00:20:02,560
the controlling of connections,
and the communications needed

194
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,520
to monitor the state of health
of the astronaut.

195
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:11,520
We also wear adult absorbent pads
to accumulate urine.

196
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,560
I didn't wear diapers
as a child

197
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:18,400
but I had to wear them in space
at 42 years of age!

198
00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:35,640
The spacesuit weighs
about 308 pounds here on Earth.

199
00:20:38,360 --> 00:20:41,680
Training has saved my life many times,

200
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:46,560
both as a pilot and during my second EVA,

201
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,520
when the spacesuit had a failure.

202
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,520
- Action!
- Yes!

203
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,120
Food tastes the same in space,

204
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,360
but it's the way it's eaten
that can be galactic!

205
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:12,440
It's like a rainbow of colors in here!

206
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,280
Space food is no different
than food on Earth.

207
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,320
To take it into space,
it must be pre-cooked

208
00:21:18,360 --> 00:21:22,200
or ready-to-eat, maybe adding water.

209
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,120
Ready?

210
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:37,880
- Say it.
- Three... two... one!

211
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,160
Oh!

212
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,400
Well, we guess we do.

213
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:01,240
Good morning!

214
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,440
NASA trainers call them "Acers",

215
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:10,560
it's an acronym to indicate

216
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:15,080
they're both exercisers and trainers
of our physiological recovery.

217
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,280
In space, muscles atrophy

218
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:26,680
and there are problems of osteoporosis
due to the lack of vitamin D

219
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:30,520
given the impossibility
of being in the open air.

220
00:22:38,360 --> 00:22:43,600
All astronauts do 2.5 hours
of mandatory physical activity

221
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:48,240
to avoid muscle complications
caused by microgravity.

222
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:02,600
There's also
a galactic vision... in all senses.

223
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:14,440
With less gravity,
the body tends to lengthen.

224
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,640
I think I lengthened almost 2 inches.

225
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,600
Training in the pool
is one of my favorites.

226
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:57,760
It puts you close to space conditions
while still on Earth.

227
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:13,040
Dressing seems
very complicated on Earth,

228
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:16,840
in orbit it is too,
but for different reasons.

229
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:21,440
Here, it's a problem
of gravity and dimensions.

230
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,760
In orbit it's harder to get inside

231
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:29,920
because we can't push ourselves
into the spacesuit,

232
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:36,080
so, in a certain sense, although it's different,
it's realistic for when we're in orbit.

233
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:56,480
The pool at NASA
is one of the largest in the world.

234
00:24:56,520 --> 00:25:02,080
202 feet long, 101 feet wide
and 40 feet deep.

235
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:11,440
Under the water is a partial replica
of the International Space Station.

236
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:15,720
The advantage of working underwater
is that the spacesuit is,

237
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,080
as far as possible, in neutral balance.

238
00:25:18,120 --> 00:25:21,680
This allows us
to get familiar with the spacesuit,

239
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,160
which would normally weigh
hundreds of pounds,

240
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,640
without the exertion
of this weight on you.

241
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:32,960
What we need to understand
when we work in the pool

242
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:36,200
is the exertion, frustration

243
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:40,400
of working in a very strenuous,
pressurized environment

244
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:43,240
in which movement is limited.

245
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:49,840
It's a full-scale, 360-degree training,
with similarities and diversities,

246
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:53,200
but, in general,
it's an extraordinary training.

247
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:58,600
The only type of training
that teaches the use of a spacesuit.

248
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:06,160
And you cut out a little bit...

249
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:10,880
A spacesuit is
totally isolated, pressurized.

250
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,560
The pressurization gives
an atmosphere inside the spacesuit,

251
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,080
when in extra-vehicular activity
or underwater,

252
00:26:17,120 --> 00:26:20,520
so not to be crushed
by the pressure of the water.

253
00:26:21,360 --> 00:26:26,080
From a physical standpoint, it's one
of our most complex training drills

254
00:26:26,120 --> 00:26:32,160
because it's like doing endurance sport activity,
therefore, long duration.

255
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,760
We spend six hours underwater,
more than seven inside the spacesuit,

256
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:39,400
including pressurization,
dressing and so on.

257
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:42,240
It's exhausting,

258
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:48,360
we can't eat,
we have only half a quart of water

259
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:51,320
and all movement is extremely tiring.

260
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:57,520
My hands are white, this is due to
the pressure of the spacesuit.

261
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:02,080
My nails are a bit ruined
because of the pressure of the gloves.

262
00:27:02,120 --> 00:27:05,520
The spacesuit
is adapted to each astronaut,

263
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:10,400
but it's not tailor-made,
so there are some constrictions.

264
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:17,200
# La la la la, Superman! #

265
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:22,240
# La la la la, Superman!
La la la la! #

266
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,600
We begin with the wet suit,
the number-slot belt.

267
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,520
We go over the checklist.

268
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,520
Okay, we're good to go.

269
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:42,520
The Ironman Triathlon
started in Hawaii.

270
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:47,040
It was born in Honolulu
as the result of a bet.

271
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:52,760
Some athletes were chatting
about which sport,

272
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:57,720
which athlete,
had the greatest endurance.

273
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,560
"Let's have a race
in which we combine all three!"

274
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:08,520
One of them said: "The one who wins
will be called Ironman".

275
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:19,800
And now to bed early,
wake-up is before dawn.

276
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,960
At 5:30 I have to be there.

277
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:28,160
# La la la la, Superman! #
Superman!

278
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,360
It's 6:40.

279
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:43,080
I'm about to head to the starting area,
my heat starts at 7:15.

280
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:48,040
I got up at 4:30 for breakfast.

281
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:51,280
I prepared my emplacement

282
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:55,640
with my shoes and helmet for the bike,
and my running shoes.

283
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:57,960
We'll be starting soon.

284
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:57,280
JAXA, JAPAN

285
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:02,360
This is JAXA,
the Japanese Space Agency.

286
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:13,360
- Thanks very much. I'm Maria. - Yeah?
- Yeah! - How are you?

287
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:18,120
All the astronauts
tasked to the International Space Station

288
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:20,960
must do a training period here

289
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:25,160
which varies according to
the type of training necessary

290
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:29,040
and the level
of professionalism required.

291
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:35,240
You pass from a basic level, "user",

292
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:37,360
to a middle level, "operator"

293
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:41,240
and then to a higher level,
"specialist".

294
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:47,520
Good point! Yeah, good point.
No doubt, yeah. The entrance.

295
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:53,080
On my first mission, Volare,
in 2013, I was at the "user" level,

296
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:57,960
so I came only once,
for about a week.

297
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:03,880
This time, with Expedition 60-61,
I am at the "operator" level.

298
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,880
This is my first week of training,

299
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:11,720
there will be another
in the second phase of training,

300
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:14,360
about six months before departure.

301
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:21,320
There is a mock-up of "kibo",
in the Japanese lab,

302
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:25,760
the logistics part and the robot arm.

303
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:27,000
So this is...

304
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:29,720
Lazy back then.
It's a solution we have...

305
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:33,680
In the next few days
I will train and use these elements,

306
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:37,600
both to resolve emergencies

307
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:42,000
and to do routine work
in the normal phases of utilization.

308
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:50,840
The Japanese lab "kibo"

309
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:55,640
is the largest and most modern module
of the International Space Station.

310
00:32:55,680 --> 00:33:00,440
It is very well-lighted, well-made
and has several unique characteristics.

311
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:12,200
Besides, I've always loved
Japanese cartoons and robots.

312
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:15,960
Good morning.

313
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:30,760
- It's fish.
- Yeah.

314
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:35,200
The sushi train's begun, time to eat.

315
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,920
To know a culture,
you need to identify

316
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:15,040
with all the phases of a person's life,

317
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:16,800
including entertainment.

318
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:27,040
Kenji explained a tradition
for all those who approach the temple.

319
00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:33,240
You're presenting yourself
before the god or gods

320
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:39,640
and you must purify your hands and mouth
with the pure water of the fountain.

321
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:56,720
It's a little like fortune cookies,

322
00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:03,800
by making a small offering,
you can fish a note to foresee the future.

323
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:06,560
Let's see what Kenji-San
reads on my note.

324
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:16,320
He told me I must
be careful on my travels,

325
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,960
something regarding flames or fire.

326
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,240
So, I'd better prepare
for a fire emergency on board.

327
00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:33,760
Fear is not weakness,
the opposite, in fear courage is shown.

328
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:38,200
Fear is a tool that allows us to survive.

329
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:21,440
Baikonur in Kazakhstan
was the world's first launching site.

330
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,920
BAIKONUR, KAZAKHSTAN

331
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:31,920
It was built by the Soviet Union
and is now under Russian administration.

332
00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,960
It remained secret for years!

333
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:52,960
From here departed Sputnik,
the first artificial satellite,

334
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,280
on October 4, 1957.

335
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:02,640
From here departed
the first manned launch, in 1961.

336
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:12,240
From here departed the first woman
in space, Valentina Tereshkova, in 1963.

337
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:21,040
From here I departed
and am about to depart again.

338
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:35,880
From here departed Laika, the first dog
in space, dying after only a few hours.

339
00:37:40,240 --> 00:37:43,400
The cosmodrome observes strict criteria:

340
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:48,360
4,163 square miles
in the heart of the Kazakh Steppa,

341
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:51,480
built in a secret, deserted place.

342
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:13,520
The Baikonur base is equipped
for the departure of space vehicles

343
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:16,240
both with or without a human crew.

344
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:06,160
Although there is
no clear distinction

345
00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:08,120
between the atmosphere and outer space,

346
00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:11,600
there is an imaginary line,
called the Kármán line,

347
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:14,000
at 62 miles from the surface.

348
00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:19,160
Scientists say the Earth's atmosphere
encounters outer space at that point.

349
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:29,880
At Baikonur, many traditions
and superstitions are respected.

350
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:32,760
The blessing of the rocket
is one of these.

351
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:06,080
This town
was built in the desert

352
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:09,000
as support for the workers
at the Center.

353
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:15,840
It attained city status only in 1966.

354
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:41,800
Here Gagarin spent
his last night before going into space.

355
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:47,760
They say there was security to prevent escape
due to an eventual reconsideration,

356
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,040
but it never happened.

357
00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:57,200
In the next room were doctors
responsible for checking his health.

358
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:25,160
Here, the first machines began,

359
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,680
older-generation flight systems,

360
00:42:27,720 --> 00:42:32,080
but solid and functional,
improved launch after launch.

361
00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:00,400
My isolation wing.

362
00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:18,680
I'm climbing the stairs
to the area where the astronauts live

363
00:43:18,720 --> 00:43:21,120
during their quarantine.

364
00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:26,360
This is the common area
we've made into a small snack bar.

365
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:29,120
It's the first time we've used this area.

366
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:33,000
Here we can relax

367
00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:37,160
when we're not involved
in lessons or training.

368
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:41,720
These are our rooms, they're brand new,

369
00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:46,480
they were realized
expressly for my expedition,

370
00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:49,160
my crew and I
were the first to occupy them.

371
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:52,840
This is my room, number 304.

372
00:43:56,720 --> 00:43:59,840
About twenty days ago
I attained the rank of colonel,

373
00:43:59,880 --> 00:44:05,800
but I couldn't have a ceremony
to validate my promotion in rank.

374
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:08,440
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.

375
00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:22,520
Whoever leaves Earth from here
must first plant a tree.

376
00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:27,840
To date, there have been 227 of us,
even Gagarin did.

377
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:36,200
One day,
6 hours and 24 minutes till departure.

378
00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:49,360
This is the last good-bye to my family,

379
00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:54,360
I'm behind the window
and they're here waving to me.

380
00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:55,960
- Hi!
- Hi.

381
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:01,760
The next time I'll be in my spacesuit.

382
00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:04,520
- Hi.
- Hi!

383
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:15,680
We've very close to departure.

384
00:45:15,720 --> 00:45:19,160
We're ready,
an entirely new adventure is starting.

385
00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:34,160
During the first radio call,
you have to say something more than "hi".

386
00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:39,080
You can even say, "Hi Dad".
That would be good.

387
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:43,360
The boots are Prada.

388
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:50,640
These boots are not made for walking.

389
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,480
They are like size 55.

390
00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:59,080
Cause they go on top of the spacesuit.

391
00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:06,720
And we only use them once, from here to the bus
and from the bus to the rocket. And that's it.

392
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:08,480
So...

393
00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:38,800
Go for it!

394
00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:41,320
Great Luca! Go Luca!

395
00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:15,280
It's a moment
of great emotion for everyone.

396
00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:19,080
Maybe the greatest emotion
is that of a father

397
00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:22,520
who cannot hug his daughters.

398
00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:53,600
I was the first Italian
to walk in space.

399
00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:55,760
To date, I hold the European record:

400
00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:59,560
33 hours and 9 minutes of space walk.

401
00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:11,880
I'm the only one to have done
a concert from space

402
00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:15,520
and to have played records
for a party above Earth.

403
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:24,520
Under my command there was
the first Arab astronaut in orbit.

404
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:33,280
Under my command there was
the first space walk made solely by women.

405
00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:36,800
October 18 will remain in history.

406
00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:48,920
I hold the record
for European extra-vehicular activity, six.

407
00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:16,640
Space is the metaphor
of a story of successes and hard work,

408
00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:20,560
the symbol of humanity's desire
to exceed itself.

409
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:24,120
The world must go on,

410
00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:26,200
it must go beyond.

411
00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:36,720
Commander Parmitano
is an extraordinary person.

412
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:37,960
Hi, ya all!

413
00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:40,760
Parmitano for Italians

414
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:43,480
is a wonderful example.

415
00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:46,720
# Clappin' hands,
dancin' people in the stands. #

416
00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:50,480
I'd never heard of
a singing astronaut.

417
00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:51,720
But he kept perfect time.

418
00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:55,800
# I don't get bored,
no I don't get bored... #

419
00:51:55,840 --> 00:52:00,320
There are women you can't dance with.
What about sex in orbit?
