SpaceX Polaris Dawn Crew Attempts First-Ever Private Spacewalk | SpaceX LIVE | Polaris Dawn Mission

Jared it's about 12 feet long so it's like about double double the length of what you guys have so so it's Dual Purpose right it's it's providing them the the air and the cooling that they need while they're out on the spacewalk uh but it's also providing that safety piece right so that if uh if something should happen they should slip or um that that they're not going to go floating off into space with the Emu uh that we use on the space station we actually you know all of those consumables are a part of the suit itself and we have a separate safety tether that the first thing we do when we open that hatch and we go out is is we hook up that safety tether and it's an 85 foot reel that uh as you're moving around it it goes out with you to again protect for that crazy moment when maybe uh an emergency happens and you come off station how how hard was it to manage all of those tethers I feel like every time I watch it like there's no way in heck that this thing isn't getting snagged on something no you're absolutely right because everything and and you talked earlier about making sure there was no loose items in the cockpit right because when you open that that hatch uh things are going to want to float away if they're not tied down or stored or anything like that so when we go out on a space walk not only do we keep us Tethered to the spacecraft but any tool any part that we take out with us also has to be tethered and it can be quite a challenge to manage all you'll open up a bag and there's there's 10 pieces of Hardware in there with 10 different tethers and they get all tangled up and and it can really be pretty challenging it's important though um we simplified that a little bit for this Mission um we actually basically built in that tether into the umbilical one of which you can see actually they floating uh under Jared's right arm so not only does that Pro provide airf flow and comms and uh all the normal connections that we have in the in the umbilicals but we also added that that strength uh to provide that protection yeah and and the managing of that tether is extremely important because you know as they go out if it can get tangled up and you actually see s they're kind of moving around right it's it's very easy in in this environment where you're floating Dragon Eva off you complete are in position for Eva ni cop C position but you saw Sarah kind of move the tether out of the way and the part of that is that's actually impacting you go to command box push a talk all seats and so this will this will be one of the unique things about the spacewalk today it'll it'll feel familiar if you've ever if you watched some of Mike space walks uh the crew is going to go over to what's called vet set go the come check dv1 come Che ev2 com Che support one com Che support two com Che space copies all good coms all four [Music] crew so essentially now all of our crew are on open mics they can all talk and hear each other and they can talk to the ground and so you're going to hear a lot more chatter start to pick up uh once we start the pressurization you're going to hear almost like a sound that's just the air starting to flow into their suits um how how loud does it get inside your suit it it actually is quite loud that air flow is just constantly which is a good thing right because not only is it providing you the oxygen but it's also helping get rid of that CO2 that you're breathing out so you want that air flow uh to be constantly going and and so you always are hearing that fan uh that that's uh making that happen and so that is is certainly pretty important and the Box thing I got to say you know it's nice that you don't have to push a button when you're outside there to to talk drag SpaceX we about 90 seconds from E initiation got some fist bumps going on yeah and we just heard we're about 90 seconds from Eva initiation so we should see them get the go to close their visors and then they're going to open up one of the O2 valves on on their suits to start the suit Purge and that's going to be the official start of our space walk today so we're we'll get through the the final goes and then we'll see those visors get closed oxygen start flowing and we'll be off I love how everyone looks so calm and collected right now I think that's a a a great visualization of just all the extensive training that they've gone through to get to this point this has been years in the making um I'm sure they're excited uh but everyone's focused it it is an interesting time right now right because one of the hardest parts I always found about Dragon SpaceX SpaceX is go for spacewalk operations report advisor down ready for secondary O2 flow initiation and crew is go for space verify your bers are closed [Music] secondary O2 is [Laughter] [Music] open and that you are go for the ev1 is go ev2 is G support one is go support two is go Dragon Space X initiating secondary O2 and with that news our Eva has begun so so you're you're going to hear referred to as primary and secondary O2 primary is going to be that primary flow of oxygen to pressurize secondary is largely putting oxygen into their suits to help with cooling but secondary is the first one we turn on and so our O2 flow timer has started Eva start at 3:12 a.m. Pacific I'll do the math on UTC in a little bit so this first this first operation or this first step in the operation is a suit Purge so inside their suit obviously when the visor is still open it's still a nitrox environment it's the same as the cabin uh and since they're going to be at a lower pressure then what you can basically live at with with oxygen levels um they're going to be on pure O2 they're going to be a 100% oxygen environment and I mean you guys were kind of in the same thing and it's it's because like your suit can't you can't move a suit around at 14.7 PSI can you maybe you can they like no that would be pretty that'd be pretty tough to do and and as we talked about earlier that's why that Mobility is so important because uh when that suit is pressurized like that it it can be challenging to move around absolutely so here on your screen we can see the polaron crew now with their visors down the Eva has begun we are beginning to flow that uh O2 through now we will of course bring these views to you as we have them but due to ground coverage they do come in and out here and there um but every moment that we can we will certainly be sharing these with you um I also wanted to point out quickly that the the the window near kids feet was so much brighter than it was uh just even five minutes ago we're going to be seeing that uh in start contrast as soon as we get uh the Eva or with the hatch open and ev1 out there yeah it's kind of interesting you you you mention that because as you're going around the earth as fast as you are right in in 30 minutes or 45 minutes or so you can be passing in and out of that sun and and going into Shadow and and so that brings its challenges as as well because the temperature um can change pretty drastically just in those transitions from night to to Daylight and and so there's a there's a it's an interesting moment when you're passing through uh through that time that's actually one of uh the reasons that the visors have this new coating on them different than when you wore the a similar helmet um that coding actually helps to insulate the individual inside the suit so when they're looking at the Sun Dragon SpaceX a reminder after the initiation of primary O2 flow ev1 ev2 will need to adjust Vox threshold low following primary O2 flow initiation May one copies maybe two copies Dragon SpaceX secondary flow Purge complete close secondary O2 valves and Report ready for suit pressurization ev1 Clos ev2 Clos report one Clos report two closed X Dragon is ready for SE pressurization initiating primary O2 this is normal this is with the airflow coming through uh the crew members on Vox meaning uh that their the microphone is on the whole time so Sarah and Jared are going to be adjusting their audio levels um as this flow continues to to help regulate that yeah the the the Vox will kind of attenuate so it'll it'll sound like this now but as we get through The Space Walk it'll kind of come down and you'll just hear voices a little bit more clearly uh their their voices are actually going to change too like did that did that happen to you did that throw you Mike the first time you heard it absolutely did yeah CU you're you're you're talking and you're going who is that right yeah you don't realize how how much different it can sound um your voice can sound in that lower pressure environment yeah speaking of lower pressure we can uh we can see the pressure changing there with the Telemetry in the bottom le- hand side of the screen so we can see that suit pressure going up um and we're able to keep tabs there um as well with the dragon pressure so Dragon uh on the far left Circle that's the pressure within the cabin and then suit obviously that's the pressure within the suits so we'll be actually be able to and I think we've kind of been able to see it already um that these suits will inflate a little bit um look a little different and we were talking about the the visors before so when they're in the sunlight that coating will help keep them cool and not overheat them and then when they're in Shadow it'll help keep them warm so uh and it's also like your sunglasses as well yeah right serves that purpose all right so at this moment the suits are getting their primary pressurization this takes about three and a half minutes a little bit less and then we're going to go through those actual suit leak checks I the crew will probably get a reminder they have to stay really still when we do those leak checks and I always was kind of wondering like why the the heck and like if you if you bend your arms you're actually going to start you know changing the volume inside the suit that'll cause pressure spikes and so that's right got to stay really still yep and then after after we get through the leak checks we're going to go through kind of that final pre-breathe uh where they're going to hang out in that 100% O2 environment just to continue purging all of that excess nitrogen um St complete secondary FL on E1 open one open bar two open and right there they they finished the purge and they did a quick uh reinitiation of that secondary flow check second one [Applause] these handles that we see Jared holding on to these were one of the additions uh or uh customizations for this mission that we talked about earlier support one cont we got you all right copy got [Music] the dragon X begin check evaluation and Che so once again that background noise is expected um that is the microphones and the flow of air uh within the suits so we're trying to stay quiet to uh along with you listen in on what the crew coms uh are as they go through um we're also uh going to get views in and out as we mentioned before due to uh ground station coverage and it is it is a little bit tough to hear we just heard though that we got four good leak checks on their suits and now they're going to be in this final suited preb so again this is going to last about 19 or so minutes uh and this is just to do kind of that final get all of the excess nitrogen out um and we started pre- breed just two two hours after they got on orbit just like you know gradually lowering the pressure and I mean preb that that's something that kind of evolved over time with the space station where where were we when you were doing your space was yeah so we were past the kind of the camp out phase of free breathe um that's how we used to do it and it's very similar to what what the polaron crew has been doing over the last couple of days we'd actually have uh astr Nots stay inside the crew lock overnight at a lower pressure just like they did when they first got on orbit now we've moved on to we do it the day of it still is a long day we start start about six hours prior to going out the door uh but it's not two days prior it's worth noting uh along the lines of training and how the crew prepared for this mission that all four of our Polaris Dawn crew members uh and some additional Polaris and SpaceX crew members actually went into um a a vacuum chamber and tested these suits out and spent uh a bit of time at lower pressure just to help learn what that feels like and get used to it well and I think the other thing that's important about that is it's real right it's it's the first time that you're in that suit and it's actually a vacuum around you right and there's just something mentally that I think is important to put people through those moments before you actually have to experience the first time in space yep we we saw some of the unique ways we train the crew for this and I mean training for space station space boox I'm still really upset I never got in the pool that looks like one of the coolest like parts of being an astronaut is like not being in space but just doing some of this training yeah Dan I I I tell you I can still remember the first time I stuck my head underwater not in the in the suit but in the for diving but you can hear the calms of of everything that's going on through the water water like that and it just gives me goosebumps to think think about that it was a really neat environment but it looks like these guys had a pretty neat way to train as well with the uh the the harness that would hoist them up and out and and all that that's that's pretty impressive yeah um we definitely created some rigorous uh new training for the best we could simulate an Eva while still on Earth um with hoists and uh you know it was um it was a lot of fun to watch them train on board with cameras in three minutes so our court just called up we'll get we'll get views back on board in about three minutes as Kate talked about earlier we're using ground stations for our video coverage all of our communication with the astronauts are through tedris so tracking a data relay satellites so we have we'll have constant audio but that video we need those ground stations but right now they're just they're in that pre-breathe uh that final pre-b still we started our space walk about 13 minutes ago when we initiated O2 flow to the suits the time was 3:12 a.m. Pacific 12 10:12 UTC I did some quick map took me took me 13 minutes to do it but I did it um so we're once they're through this pre-breathe we're going to start getting into some really exciting parts of the Space Walk and and then after after we get to the free breathe we're going to get to cabin vent so you know what's what's going through your head when you're like man it's happening the A's going out it's really happening it's happening yeah I I I tell you it is a long process to get to this point right they've been prepping for this for two days right and and one of the hardest things I found about the space walks is the waiting hurry up and wait hurry up and wait right you are so ready to to go out and to do this Mission and and to go out that hatch and it just takes time and I think that's one of the things you talked about my fifth versus my first your fifth you kind of understand how long it's going to take you have a better appreciation for how long it's going to take and so you literally find yourself in these moments when when you're kind of waiting through this pre-breathe or you're waiting for the airlock to depressurize just kind of find yourself just floating there kind of zoning out trying to keep yourself calm and relaxed and and until that moment when it's it's game it's game time yeah now just a quick mention we about a minute out until we uh get those views back uh inside the cabin um The View that we had previously was our Dragon tracker which uh if you you want to see where Dragon is you can actually look that up as well um we have it on our website spacex.com follow- Dragon um but yeah just as a reminder uh our our crew they are in their designated or well Jared's not but um the yeah um our our crew members basically Sarah and kid have switched their seats for the Eva um we saw we last time we were able to see inside the cabin we saw Jared awaiting um to open the hatch so he wasn't in his Commander seat but uh Sarah is now sitting in Scott's pilot seat also known as seat three um and then Anna is on the far left side and Scott is on the oh yeah we can see it there on the far on the far right side um and also just a reminder uh their their call signs for these Eva operations um Anna being support two kid being support one and then Sarah being ev2 and Jared ev1 representing uh that Jared will exit first uh do his activities which include just some Mobility testing of the suit uh and then Sarah will go out and perform the exact same uh testing once Jared comes in um meanwhile uh kid and Anna will function as the eyes and ears uh they will be performing uh their own uh list of operations during uh or their own list of tasks during the Eva so while Sarah and Jared are going to be the one ones that are you know partially egressing the capsule once that uh forward uh door is open uh kid and uh Anna will also be performing an Eva in their own right that's right and we talked about it earlier first time four people exposed to the vacuum of space like that's there's a lot of first in this that's going to be a really cool first not just for us and dragon um but we are going to be getting views back really soon we're again just in that final pre-bed step right now and then we're going to start venting uh venting Dragon down to near vacuum so we're going to have a couple of different valves that are going to open up and the atmosphere inside dragon is going to start going overboard out into the vacuum of space now the crew the ground they can control they can pause that cabin venting if they need to uh we can pause and resume the most likely reason is for ear Equalization is again you're you're going through a lot of pressure changes anytime you do a space walk and so if you've ever flown on an airplane and your ears popped you've experienced just a little bit of what they might be going through right now uh once we start cabin venting if we terminate or abort that the spacewalk during that venting we cannot start again we talked a little bit earlier about how consumables are like the thing that really drives you uh and for us we don't have a great big airlock with this with you know a full station worth of oxygen and stuff like that um so [Music] T1 go copy initiating car that is great news so that breathing of incre that pre-breathe where they were breathing increased oxygen we just heard that uh they're good they all all four crew members gave to go uh so now we're going to vent the cabin yeah in in total this will [Music] take in total this will take about 8 minutes and you can this the graphics you see in your screen that's live Telemetry everybody so you can see the pressure inside Dragon starting to tick down you're going to see the sup pressure tick down as well is what we're really trying to maintain is a pressure differential and so with these suits we're going to be hovering right around five or so you might see about 4.9 to 5.1 5.2 um it'll be about 4.9 and then we'll probably see it go up a little bit uh when they reinitiate the secondary flow yeah Dan and you talked about that about five PSIs with the suit will be we're actually a little bit lower in the Emu yeah and so we've talked a lot about Mobility that difference between we're at 4.2 and they're going to be at five it can actually make quite a bit of difference just in how hard it can be to move the suit around Etc yeah this crew got to and that's something we can simulate you know on in a vacuum chamber or even just uh in 14.7 you can you can simulate that that differential pressure getting call from the crew they're they're monitoring along1 good we're gonna hear that kind of we're g to hear that chorus pretty frequently where you do those kind of frequent most like check-ins and I know you guys did something kind of similar where like you'd have to pause and you know check your gloves that kind of stuff we we did I I will tell you one of the interesting things watching this uh live right now the difference is how quickly the depressurization is happening here versus uh what my experience was and and so you talked about being able to clear your ears and all that you're not giving a lot of time for your you're not giving a lot of time for your your ears to adapt to that lower pressure so this this is seems pretty quick to me yeah break breaking new ground with this new suits new operations for everything we're at about 4.5 we're going to see that tick down it's going to get down to just under one and it's not going to go all the way down um and then what we'll actually see is we've got a capability to open the hatch automatically we've got a motor in it um but Jared's actually going to unlatch it and he's going to give it a little tug to kind of break the seal break any of the kind of the stion in the hatch itself and that's going to kind of take the capsule down to its final vent before Sarah who's at the displays she's going to command the hatch to actually open um yeah that's a good point and you know there's there will be slightly more pressure inside the capsule so really just helping PSI two pressures look good copy for so Jared really can't open the hatch all in one fluid motion so we will see him uh release that that pressure slightly um before being able to open it completely and I think one of the important things you guys I think had talked earlier about you put some more um restraint devices inside the capsule from when I flew on it and that's extremely important because there's going to be some force that Jared's going to have to be pulling down on and he needs to be able to Anchor his feet somehow um otherwise he's going to pull and it's not going to go anywhere and so the the new restraint devices in there we're going to see how important that's going to become here when he tries to open that hatch yeah yeah that's that's one of the things that's why we have Skywalker out there we've we've talked about how kind of similar to to Gemini when they were first kind of stressing their legs but important to remember we've got that 50 or 60 years of space flight history that we're able to draw these are new suits this is a new operation this is to you know work out all the Kinks and really test this for the first time but we're going into this a whole lot more information than they had back then we know you need handrails or it's gonna get real hard real quick that's right that's right yep we did we did also hear uh dragons moving into its uh its Eva orientation essentially we're going to point the trunk at the sun under 3 PSI I think it's also interesting you notice that the depressurization has slowed down a little bit right so as we get to this lower pressure it's it's just taking it longer for that remaining little bit of air to to uh go out through the vents and ev1 come check E1 mad and clear mad and clear well also hear the Vox starting to adjust its levels that that flow of oxygen has not stopped but the microphone's kind of adjusted and it's getting a little bit clearer and yeah keep keep an ear out you might hear their voices start to like tener down a little bit I do think that's a an important Point Dan that how important Comm is yeah right and and when it's compromised a little bit just by that extra air flow and the Vox not keeping up with it right away uh how challenging it was just to hear those calls and they can be some pretty important calls so course Comm is is just critical we can see Dragon capsule now approaching close to two psia like Dan mentioned earlier that's going to get to just under one it's incredible to think that uh you know the Dragon capsule in all of its power and glory and awesomeness the the new capsule is around their bodies right that that is what is going to protect them um from the vacuum of space and uh you know just seeing how even though it's puffed up and we know that it's uh you know holding that pressure it still looks so cool for lack of a better word yeah you really have four Min spa or spaceships in there PSI guess that means we have four aliens in there too that's right Dragon SpaceX one PSI from hatch operating pressure we have a tedris Handover in 2 minutes we are going to wait until after the tedris Handover to command in Hatch over prep one [Music] copy yeah I think you heard that the the teed's hand over so there's going to be a a period of time there where they're out of con and we're at it's kind of interesting because we're at a very critical phase as well and so you want to make sure you have all the data and uh and the ability to talk to the astronauts before you actually take that next critical step we see it well we're seeing that pressure continue to take down Dragon originally designed to be able to still operate in a vacuum that was some of the emergency situations I know you trained for Mike we did make some modifications to this one uh to essentially turn Dragon into a functional airlock um we added some additional uh vent paths um we do use like some of the same ones that you guys use to like pressurize the vestibule and stuff like that um that are actually in the hatch but we've got it we've got an extra one in there to be able to essentially do that deess as quickly as we did uh but we're going to we're going to see that get down to a little under one and then we're going to see Jared kind of jump into action he's going to unlatch the hatch and then he's going to give it a little pull to break the initial stion and then we're going to be able to uh see 1.5 psia all seits look good one cop now that's one thing to note that while we have been progressing through this pretty quickly we did have the capability to pause if any of the four crew members needed to uh you know take a moment to you know let their ears um come to equilibrium or just kind of get comfortable again um we did have that option but everything has been going really well so far we haven't had uh to to pause cabin venting and if you're just tuning in heck of a time to do it we're about a little under 28 minutes into the uh into the spacewalk today which again that started when we started flowing O2 to the suits of these crew members that was at 312 Pacific 1012 UTC we just heard that dragon's now in its Eva attitude [Music] complete so again we've got we've got dragon's trunk pointing towards the sun onard watching through the cross that was SpaceX core Arthur baralt just letting the crew know uh that where the cameras are on inside and uh basically which camera is is looking at them it's it's so fun to hear Arthur's voice because he was actually a part of our mission as well in fact Arthur was an intern started out as an intern when we were first uh starting the training and and so now to see him as a as a core and uh is is pretty neat very similar to Sarah who also started as an intern yes yeah right we're coming up on one PSI you might see you saw the light change a little bit through that window as we're in our Eva position trunk facing the sun that's going to help us with thermal uh inside the capsule and on the cruise suits also going to make sure we're maintaining that that optimal pointing for communications with the tedris satellites once the hatch is open we're going to disable any of the Draco thrusters that point forward because you don't want thrusters firing off when gr MERS outside we're at one you can see the S pressure is ticked down too there's about 4.7 difference between the suit and the ambient cabin there in dragon that umbilical that you see there uh just to the side of Jared that will continue to flow the air into his suit as well as provide Telemetry and Communications connection that's also where we have the um safety harness built in as well so it's able to Dragon SpaceX cab pressure below hatch operating limit standby for transition to hatch open here we go Mike did you get to open the hatch I did yes yeah when you when you go out as Dragon SpaceX when hatch open prep and from to open hatch that is SpaceX copies Dragon you are go to open hatch go excited go to open the hatch Mike as you mentioned before that continuous communication as you can hear we do have a crowd Gathering outside of Mission Control uh here in hawthor in their excitement somebody dropped a cup we can see our commander Jared isaacman now turning the crank which allows the uh that top hatch to open we'll see him give it uh a pretty heavy uh1 hatch visually indic open space copies stand by should see him give that hatch a pretty strong jolt to release that stion hatch is now unlatched Mike talked about you see him getting his feet getting his feet set that's right and you'd ask if I got open in the hatch so when you go out a zv1 just like Jared here a zv1 that's that's typically the role for for you to open that hatch and guys have to draw straws fever it's exciting it is it's very exciting yeah now for those of you that have just recently joined as you can see we have successfully depressurized the Dragon capsule uh down to zero psia you see that in the bottom left hand side bottom left corner of your screen um our four polaron crew members um have uh gone through the uh O2 flow and we see Commander Jared um isaacman now standing by uh to open that top hatch the nose cone is already open it opened just shortly after uh the crew got into orbit uh so Dragon SpaceX Target pressure reached SPX I'm unting the hatch now Jared now opening Dragon resilience into space so we saw some motion on the hatch again he's just giving it kind of that initial tug and then Sarah gets to push the button to swing that hatch open [Applause] much more movement there on the forward hatch this supp be pretty exciting for Jared because that center part of dragon Space X that's a good brace we're gonna have you repeat the operation center of the hatch actually has a window the hatch is UN copy let give it another hatches several in turn copy we see it looking out that tiny window there in the forward hatch knowing he is going to have a much bigger window in just minutes Dragon Space X vent complete ev1 return to seat then E1 copy transitioning back under the play so again one of the reasons we had Jared do that was to Dragon SpaceX we're actually watching that hatch we're gonna have you repeat the last operation sounds like they're going to have repeat them one of the reasons we're doing that is just to kind of vent any of that residual atmosphere ev1 you are go for manual hatch open sounds like we got our first audit of the day as we said that we can open the hatch open the hatch we could open the hatch man we could open the hatch automatically or we could do it manually and so they just gave Jared the go to open that hatch manually so we we just went out of ground station reach so we'll get the views back we'll get the views back real shortly and then the the hatch will hatch open hopefully we see it yeah hopefully we see a hatch open hatch is open SpaceX copies hatch open that is fantastic news uh for those that1 I'm looking at the seals initial view looks pretty good I don't see any VES oration copy on hat report yeah that seal that you just heard him talking about it's such a important part for the end of the Eva right so that when they close that hatch again you get a good get a good seal can command [Applause] open it open there is our first view of the forward hatch wide open to space hat if you just jumped in we are 38 minutes into today's space walk and the hatch is open on Dragon first view from a helmet cam looking out Dragon Space X we see installed ev1 is go to continue that structure you see there is for copies we with you in your helmet C once again this helmet cam where we that structure we see is the the space walker this is Jared now egressing through the forward hatch of dragon resilience these are the first views of the first ever commercial space walk and at the bottom of the mobility progressing I have a feeling the crowd is about to go wild there stex back at home we all have a lot of work to do but from here work sure like a perfect world one I'm going to step into one singlehanded mobility demonstra Commander Jared Isaac now emerging one watching from the no up down left and right are three pitch and roller three y off are two switching single-handed operations are fine static and with Dynamic disturbance twitching to left hand up down left and right are three maybe a two pitch is a four low is a two Y into two so these are the suit Mobility checks that Jared single handed operations Dynamic and with

024 timer time SC check for in E1 all right than ja TV1 that's for the huge team effort that it took to get us to this point we know it's just to start and I'm transmission back in the vehicle and face at TV1 we taking a quick look here the hatch fields from what I can see so far they look pretty good copy on the hats and standby for transition read off reset [Applause] and E1 is [Applause] clear all right so Jared back inside uh we we heard him going through What's called the test Matrix uh it's basically just a bunch of Maneuvers using different hands using the foot Mobility calling out numbers right now though we're doing you just heard Cy Arthur call up three off reset so we didn't use any of the forward thrusters while Jared was out there we're re-enabling them putting us back in our perfect attitude before Sarah gets ready to go out the door fun thing to note it's still not a perfect vacuum inside a dragon is it's an open loop system so oxygen is kind of getting dumped into the cabin as this is going on so you got a higher pressure in Dragon than you have outside so we're not worried about truster pluming yeah now you mentioned Sarah um just like Jared she will have 10 to 15 minutes uh outside perform those same sets of Mobility tests as Jared uh like we heard the core do um with ev1 uh they will call out when there one minute remaining uhx attitude reset complete ev2 go for erress there is Sarah's clear to crew Che for Ev e1's good good good Ed is gonna go stand in the door and then step outside now this test Matrix that uh Jared just performed and the one that Sarah's about to perform they have both committed to memory um in order to execute these um we saw it being done pretty efficiently I can't believe how quickly that time went by Mike we were talking about how your Spice Box for hours and these guys only have 10 to 15 minutes and it just like that yeah it it can go pretty quick and uh but fortunately feels looks good I see a little bit of a bulge between 14 and 13 so you're hearing Sarah call out some more the seal check there as as she's exiting out appr SpaceX copies that report good pick so this was something we knew might happen um and between 28 and 27 copy the crew trained on exactly what to do in the scenario just pop it back in one final between 19 and 18 that might be best reated and hatch closer space X copies can you repeat the location complete between 19 and 18 all right copy I'll track that and uh ask again when you're engress cyq is theing with e super exciting to see this our fellow space xer yeah Sarah Gillis now about to make her space walk e one I'm G to hand this back to you like we mentioned Sarah will be performing the same uh set of Mobility tests uh so we will do the same uh try to stand by and listen to those PS I mean I said it before a lot of us work here CU we want to do this all right stepping into test Matrix one for single-handed Mobility really cool to see one of our on out there that's awesome and ev2 for awareness we're watching from the nosecon happy all I to say in all three transation AIS I'm having certainly cross cic movements forward back I am inducing a bit of a roll right and up down a bit of a tip but all right Super Ball rating at three now the three the four and P the three I the left man stepping into vertical translation copies and ev2 for awareness we tracking in Ingress time at O2 flow 59 minutes happy 59 minutes horizontal bar they definitely to thir and I'm adequately able to stabilize my body with single hand disturbance F right stepping into Mass reach do you have visual a firm we have visual on the nose cone copy from bar four to Bar two and top down and similar reach from bar two up to release that that pressure slightly um before being able to open it completely and I think one of the important things you guys I think had talked earlier about you put some more um restraint devices inside the capsule from when I flew on it and that's extremely important because there's going to be some force that Jared's going to have to be pulling down on and he needs to be able to Anchor his feet somehow um otherwise he's going to pull and it's not going to go anywhere and so the the new restraint devices in there we're going to see how important that's going to become here when he tries to open that hatch yeah yeah that's that's one of the things that's why we have Skywalker out there we've we've talked about how kind of similar to to Gemini when they were first kind of stressing their legs but important to remember we've got that 50 or 60 years of space flight history that we're able to draw these are new suits this is a new operation this is to you know work out all the Kinks and really test this for the first time but we're going into this with a whole lot more information than they had back then we know you need handrails it's G to get real hard real quick that's right that's right yep we did we did also hear uh dragons moving into its uh its Eva orientation essentially we're going to point the trunk at the sun under 3 PSI I think it's also interesting you notice that the Deep pressurization has slowed down a little bit right so as we get to this lower pressure it's it's just taking it longer for that remaining little bit of air to to uh go out through the vents an ev1 come Che you want mad Madar also hear the Box starting to adjust its levels that that flow of oxygen has not stopped but the microphone's kind of adjusted and it's getting a little bit clearer and yeah keep keep an ear out you might hear their voices start to like tener down a little bit I do think that's a an important Point Dan that how important Comm is yeah right and and when it's compromised a little bit just by that extra air flow and the Vox not keeping up with it right away uh how challenging it was just to hear those calls and they can be some pretty important calls so of course uh Comm is is just critical we can see Dragon capsule now approaching close to two psia like Dan mentioned earlier that's going to get to just under one it's incredible to think that uh you know the Dragon capsule in all of its power and glory and awesomeness the the new capsule is around their bodies right that that is what is going to protect them um from the vacuum of space and uh you know just seeing how even though it's puffed up and we know that it's uh you know holding that pressure it still looks so cool for lack of dead yeah you really have four mini SP or spaceships in there approaching CSI guess that means we have four aliens in there too that's right Dragon SpaceX S1 PSI from hatch operating pressure we have a tedris Handover in 2 minutes we are going to wait until after the teacher hand over to command in Hatch open prep one [Music] copy yeah I think you heard that the the teed's Handover so there's going to be a a short period of time there where they're out of Comm and we're at it's kind of interesting because we're at a very critical phase ah as well and so you want to make sure you have all the data and uh and the ability to talk to the astronauts before you actually take that next critical step we see it we're seeing that pressure continue to take down Dragon originally designed to be able to still operate in a vacuum that was some of the emergency situations I know you train for Mike we did make some modifications to this one uh to essentially turn Dragon into a functional airlock um we added some additional uh vent paths um we do use like some of the same ones that you guys used to like pressurize the vestibule and stuff like that um that are actually in the hatch but we've got a we've got an extra one in there to be able to essentially do that deess as quickly as we did but we're GNA we're going to see that get down to a little under one and then we're going to see Jared kind of jump into action he's gonna unlatch the hatch and then he's going to give it a little pull to break the initial stion and then we're going to be able to uh see Sarah psia s look good one cop it's one thing to note that while we have been progressing through this pretty quickly we did have the capability to pause if any of the four crew members needed to uh you know take a moment to you know let their ears um come to equilibrium or just kind of get comfortable again um we did have that option but everything has been going really well so far we haven't had uh to to pause cabin venting and if you're just tuning in heck of a time to do it we're about a little under 28 minutes into the uh into the spacewalk today which again that started when we started flowing O2 to the suits of these crew members that was at 312 Pacific 1012 UTC we just heard that dragons now in its Eva attitude complete [Music] so again we've got we've got dragon's trunk pointing towards the sun watching through the cross view that was SpaceX core Arthur baralt just letting the crew know uh that where the cameras are on inside and uh basically which camera is is looking at them it's it's so fun to hear Arthur's voice because he was actually a part of our as well in fact Arthur was an intern started out as an intern when we were first starting the training and and so now to see him as a as a core and uh is is pretty neat very similar to Sarah who also started as an intern yes yeah right we're coming up on one PSI you might see you saw the light change a a little bit through that window is we're in our Eva position trunk facing the sun that's going to help us with thermal uh inside the capsule and on the cruise suits also going to make sure we're maintaining that that optimal pointing for communications with the tedris satellites uh once the hatch is open we're going to disable any of the Draco thrusters that point forward is you know want thrusters firing off when a group members outside we're at one you can see the suit pressure is ticked down too there's about 4.7 difference between the suit and the ambient cabin there in dragon that umbilical that you see there uh just to the side of Jared that will continue to flow the air into his suit as well as provide Telemetry and Communications connection that's also where we have the um safety harness built in as well so it's able to SPX cab pressure below hatch operating limit standby for transition to hatch open prep here we go M did you get to open the hatch I did yes yeah when you when you go out as U hatch open Dragon SpaceX when hatch open prep confir CR to open [Music] hatch that is great space pleas Dragon you or go to open hatch excited go to open the Hat Mike as you mentioned before that continuous communication hand as you can hear we do have a crowd Gathering outside of Mission Control uh here in hawthor in their excitement somebody dropped a cup we can see our commander Jared isaacman now turning the crank which allows the uh that top hatch to open we'll see him give it uh a pretty heavy uh hatches Vis indicated St copies stand by should see him give that hatch a pretty strong jolt to release that [Music] stion hatch is now unlatched talked about you see him getting his feet getting his feet set that's right Dan You' ask if I got opene in the hatch so when you go out a zv1 just like Jared here is ev1 that's that's typically the role for for you is to open that hatch and guys have to draw straws fever it's exciting it is it's very exciting yeah now for those of you that have just recently joined as you can see we have successfully depressurized the Dragon capsule uh down to zero psia you see that in the bottom left hand side bottom left corner of your screen um our four polaron crew members um have uh gone through the uh O2 flow and we see Commander Jared um isaacman now standing by uh to open that top hatch the nose cone is already open it opened just shortly after uh the crew got into orbit uh so Dragon SpaceX Target pressure [Music] reached Space X the Hat now Jared now opening Dragon resilience into space so we saw some motion on the hatch again he's just giving it kind of that initial tug and then Sarah gets to push the button to swing that hatch [Applause] [Music] open much more movement there on the forward hatch this supp be pretty exciting for Jared because that Cent part of dragon Space X that's a good brace we're going to have you repeat the operation center of the hatch actually has a window the hatch is unated copy give it another hatch s in cop we see it looking out that tiny window there in the forward hatch knowing he is going to have a much bigger window in just minutes xent complete ev1 return to seat then e one copy transitioning back under the display so again one of the reasons we had Jared do that was to Dragon SpaceX we're actually watching that hatch we're going to have you repeat the last operation sounds like they're going to have repeat them one of the reasons we're doing that is just to kind of vent any of that residual atmosphere and ev1 you are go for manual hatch open sounds like we got our first audible of the day as we said that we can open the hatch open the hatch we could open the hatch man we could open the hatch automatically or we can do it manually and so they just gave Jared the go to open that hatch manually so we we just went out of ground station reach so we'll get the views back we'll get the views back real shortly uh and then the the hatch see hatch open hopefully we see it yeah hopefully we see a hat hatch is openex copies hatch open that is fantastic news uh for those that1 I'm looking at some seals initial view looks pretty good I don't see any VES oration copy on Hatch report yeah that seal that you just heard him talking about it's such a important part for the end of the Eva right so that when they close that hatch again you get a good get a good seal command openid open there is our first view of the forward hatch wide open if you just jumped in we are 38 minutes into today's spacewalk and the hatch is open on Dragon first view from a helmet cam looking out Dragon SpaceX we see installed ev1 is go to continue that structure you see there is transitioning back from the display space copies we with you in your helmet cam once again this helmet cam where we that structure we see is the the space walker this is Jared now egressing through the forward hatch of dragon resilience these are the first views of the first ever commercial spacewalk and at the bottom of the mobility is progressing I have a feeling the crowd is about to go wild [Music] there stex back at home we all have a lot of work to do but from here sure looks like a perfect Road one I'm going to step into one singlehanded mobility demonstration man Jared Isaac now emerging one watching from the no up down left and right are three kitchen roller three y two switching single-handed operations of fine static and with Dynamic disturbance switching to left hand up down left and right are three maybe a two ditch is a four roll is a two Y is two so these are the suit Mobility checks that Jared Isle operations Dynamic and with disturbance are all adequate test Matrix one complete HUD check 5.3 PSI 48% RH 33 deal 9 CSI Space X copies test Matrix one and hard read out SC off Jack e one good stepping into vertical translation we're going to start with the horizontal bars all right we're going to transition over to [Applause] Vertical I say vertical and horizontal are equally workable slightly favers horizontal I'm going to do a Max reach left hand's at the top of the mobility Aid at the midpoint you have good [Music] video we just lost our live video stand by one okay Switching over to MX three switching I'm holding up at the max any1 go ahead and continue the operation uh we'll let you know we're back on with live video that and for your awareness Max 3 48 and the mid next test Matrix 2 is complete C readout 5.3 PSI 33 decimal 9 Celsius 5% R copy test Matrix complete and hard read up stepping in test Matrix three three demonstration ev1 Space X for engress L go recommended Ingress time of 02 flow plus 4 7 minutes cyress time 4 S minutes and dragon we're back on live video fromon and space ac1 I would say the handsfree demonstration is very comparable for the trainer in terms of the foot restraint SpaceX copies and ev1 when you have time if you'd like to return to the reach demonstration uh we'll take a look at that with the live [Applause] video Happ that test Matrix 3 is complete the Hut read out is 5.3 PSI 47% R 33 deal a CSI and stepping back into max reach copy test Matrix see top of the mobility a and uh let's get a Quick Crew off check e want good good gold happy back okay uh Max reach whether it's left or right hand seems to be about the same prop the mobility Aid and then the mid copy we see Che up from the bottom any go back negative we got about 1 minute until ev1 Ingress [Music] minute it's gorgeous want red1 we're checking out your helmet cam now [Applause] I'm checking out your no and looks pretty good cop we're tur those see looking at [Applause] us all right we're coming up about that o24 timer time to check for inra d1's good good all right stay ja TV1 that's for the huge steam effort that it took to get us to this point we know it's just to start and I'm transitioning back in your vehicle [Applause] in Sp ev1 we taking a quick look here at the Hatfield what I can see so far they look pretty good copy on the hat shs and standby for transition to read off reset and ev1 is clear all right so Jered back inside uh we we heard him going through What's called the test Matrix uh it's basically just a bunch of Maneuvers using different hands using the foot Mobility progress calling out numbers right now though we're doing you just heard cop Arthur call up three off resets so we didn't use any of the forward thrusters while Jared was out there we're re-enabling them putting us back in our perfect attitude before Sarah gets ready to go out the door fun thing to note it's still not a perfect vacuum inside a dragon is it's an open loop system so oxygen is kind of getting dumped into the cabin as this is going on so you got a higher pressure in Dragon than you have outside so we're not worried about Thruster pluming yeah now you mentioned Sarah um just like Jared she will have 10 to 15 minutes uh outside perform those same sets of Mobility tests as Jared uh like we heard the core do um with ev1 uh they will call out when there's one minute remaining uhx attitude reset complete ev2 go for there is Sarah's clear to check for ev2 E e1's good 's good good good Ed is going to go stand in the door and then step outside now this test Matrix that uh Jared just performed and the one that Sarah's about to perform they have both committed to memory um in order to execute these um we saw it being done pretty efficiently I can't believe how quickly that time went by Mike we were talking about how your Spice Box for hours and these guys only have 10 to 15 minutes and it just like that yeah it it can go pretty quick and uh but fortunately feels look good I see a little bit of a bulge between 14 and 13 so you're hearing Sarah call out some more of the seal check there as as she's exiting outed SpaceX copies that report good fix so this was something we knew might happen um and between 28 and 27 copy the crew trained on exactly what to do in this scenario just pop it back in and one final between 19 and 18 it might be best re get hatch closer pleas X copies can you repeat the location between 19 and 18 all right copy I'll track that and uh ask again when you're in Cy D2 is proing with e super exciting to see this our fellow space xer yeah Sarah Gillis now about to make her Space Walk e one I'm going to hand this back to you like we mentioned Sarah will be performing the same uh set of Mobility tests uh so we will do the same uh try to stand by and listen to those PS [Music] I mean I said it before a lot of us work here CU we want to do this all right stepping into test Matrix one for singlehanded Mobility really cool to see one of our own out there that's awesome and ev2 for awareness we're watching from the nose gon copy all I would say in all three translation AES I'm having certainly cross purp movements forward back are anding the B ever roll left right and up down a bit of a titch but all keepable stting is three now the three and quick the three [Applause] than for for left man stepping into vertical translation SpaceX copies and ev2 for awareness we're tracking an Ingress time at O2 flow 59 minutes happy 59 minutes horizontal bars are definitely preferred and I'm notely able to stabilize my body with single and disturbances night stepping into M reach do you have visual a firm we have visual on the nose cone copy from bar four to Bar two from top down and similar reach from bar two up to Bar four SpaceX copies reach and it's one conce SE pressure 5.25 33.8 Celsius 37% humidity SpaceX copies H read out and test makers one complete 7 here two like we mentioned before views going in and out doing during EXC me due to those ground station uh coverage gaps yeah we we coms some of the same coms are through satellites but we've got ground stations for video on dragon as you can see in the tracker we just flew over on New Zealand we're about to go right over the middle of the Pacific no ground stations in the middle are actually pretty good we're hearing the voice of mission specialist Sarah Gillis our fellow space xer on her Space Walk got she got about a minute left and then she's gonna start heading inside and a little more work I can actually get between almost bar one and bar four on that stre space has copies and you could see the Earth dark and we flew into like an orbital and test to trying to combine them so we'll call that con pressure 5.27 38% humidity 33.7 Southwest copies Matrix complete and H out wel in to handre demo I'm able to engage and disengage my feet copy that D2 and once you are able to engage disengage we'll actually have you start Ingress we're just over 59 minutes o02 flow Cy that Che for Indo good good Cy coming on in all right and just like that Sarah's going to start making check those hatch seals again SpaceX copies on Striker plates and ev2 I have one more ask for the hatch if you can check out it as well when ready to [Music] copy ready copy copy and ev2 what I'll have you do is when you Ingress can you get eyes on the hatch handle mechanism and see if the handle has been stowed in the Do Not Stow uh window and report if you can see that check I think it's just outside copy just outside thank you just out out the range and for awareness I do see a couple of those same points folding again between 12 and 13 copy your go no mostly between 12 and 13 right now SpaceX copies at 12 if you can you're go to address those copy [Music] work these numbers being called out represent the location around yeah the location around the circular hatch just identifying where these bulges are so Sarah is now reting that not quite able to reach the bathroom so we'll proceed with clearing for hatch closure just like that we're already hearing about hatch closure it's incredible that these two Evas just in two blinks of the eyes are uh your screen that's live Telemetry everybody so you can see the pressure inside Dragon starting to tick down you're going to see the sup pressure tick down as well is what we're really trying to maintain is a pressure differential and so with these suits we're going to be hovering right around five or so you might see about 4.9 to 5.1 5.2 um it'll be about 4.9 and then we'll probably see it go up a little bit uh when they reinitiate the secondary flow that Dan and you talked about that about five PSIs with the suit will be we're actually a little bit lower in the Emu yeah and so we've talked a lot about Mobility that difference between we're at 4.2 and they're going to be at five it can actually make quite a bit of difference just in how hard it can be to move the suit around Etc yeah This Crew got to and that's something we can simulate you know on in a vacuum chamber or even just in 14.7 you can you can simulate that that differential pressure getting C from the crew they're they're monitoring along1 we're going to hear that kind of we're going to hear that chorus pretty frequently where you do those kind of frequent most like checkins and I know you guys did something kind of similar where like you wouldd have to pause and you know check your glov that kind of stuff we we did I I will tell you one of the interesting things watching this uh live right now the difference is how quickly the de pressurization is happening here versus uh what my experience was and and so you talked about being able to clear your ears and all that you're not giving a lot of time for your you're not giving a lot of time for your your ears to adap to that lower pressure so this this is seems pretty quick to me yeah break breaking new ground with this new suits new operations for everything we're at about 4.5 we're going to see that tick down it's going to get down to just under one and it's not going to go all the way down um and then what we'll actually see is we've got a capability to open the hatch automatically we've got a motor in it um but Jared's actually going to unlatch it and he's going to give it a little tug to kind of break the seal break this any of the kind of the stion in the hatch itself and that's going to kind of take the capsule down to its final vent before Sarah who's at the displays she's going to command the hatch to actually open um yeah that's a good point and you know there's there will be slightly more pressure inside capsule so really just helping PSI two pressures look good copy four so Jared really can't open the hatch all in one fluid motion so we will see him uh release that that pressure slightly um before being able to open it completely and I think one of the important things you guys I think it talked earlier about you put some more um restraint devices inside the capsule from when I flew on and that's extremely important because there's going to be some force that Jared's going to have to be pulling down on and he needs to be able to Anchor his feet somehow um otherwise he's going to pull and it's not going to go anywhere and so the the new restraint devices in there we're going to see how important that's going to become here when he tries to open that hatch yeah yeah that's that's one of the things that's why we have Skywalker out there we've we've talked about how kind of similar to to Gemini when they were first kind of stressing their legs but important to remember we've got that 50 or 60 years of space flight history that we're able to draw these are new suits this is a new operation this is to you know work out all the Kinks and really test this for the first time but we're going into this with a whole lot more information than they had back then we know you need handrails or it's gonna get real hard real quick that's right that's right yep we did we did also hear uh dragons moving into its uh it's Eva orientation essentially we're going to point the trunk at the sun under 3 PSI I think it's also interesting you notice that the de pressurization has slowed down a little bit right so as we get to this lower pressure it's it's just taking it longer for that remaining little bit of air to to uh go out through the vents an ev1 come check ev1 mad and clear mad and clear 12 also hear the Vox starting to adjust its levels that that flow of oxygen has not stopped but the microphone's kind of adjusted and it's getting a little bit clearer and yeah keep keep an ear out you might hear their voices start to like tener down a little bit I do think that's an important Point Dan that how important Comm is yeah right and and when it's compromised a little bit just by that extra air flow and the Vox not keeping up with it right away uh how challenging it was just to hear those calls and they can be some pretty important calls so of course uh Comm is is just critical we can see Dragon capsule now approaching close to two psia like Dan mentioned earlier that's going to get to just under one it's incredible to think that uh you know the Dragon capsule in all of its power and glory and awesomeness the the new capsule is around their bodies right that that is what is going to protect them um from the vacuum of space and uh you know just seeing how even though it's puffed up and we know that it's uh you know holding that pressure it still looks so cool for lack of a better word yeah you really have four Mini Spa or spaceships in there PSI guess that means we have four aliens in there too that's right Dragon SpaceX one PSI from hatch operating pressure we have a tedris Handover in 2 minutes we are going to wait until after the tedris Handover to command into Hatch open prep one copy and yeah I think you heard that the the teed's Handover so there's going to be a a short period of time there where they're out of Comm and we're at it's kind of interesting because we're at a very critical phase ah as well and so you want to make sure you have all the data and uh and the ability to talk to the astronauts before you actually take that next critical step see it well we're seeing that pressure continue to take down Dragon originally designed to be able to still operate in the vacuum that was some of the emergency situations I know you trained for Mike we did make some modifications to this one uh to essentially turn Dragon into a functional airlock um we added some additional uh vent paths um we do use like some of the same ones that you guys use to like pressurize the vestibule and stuff like that um that are actually in the but we've got a we've got an extra one in there to be able to essentially do that Dess as quickly as we did but we're going to we're going to see that get down to a little under one and then we're gonna see Jared kind of jump into action he's GNA unlatch the hatch and then he's going to give it a little pull to break the initial stion and then we're going to be able to uh see sarah5 csia all s look good one copy that's one thing to note that while we have been progressing through this pretty quickly we did have the capability to pause if any of the four crew members needed to uh you know take a moment to you know let their ears um come to equilibrium or just kind of get comfortable again um we did have that option but everything has been going really well so far we haven't had uh to to pause cabin venting and if you're just tuning in heck of a time to do it we're about a little under 28 minutes into the uh into the spacewalk today which again that started when we started flowing O2 to the suits of these crew members that was at 312 Pacific 1012 UTC we just heard that dragon's now in its Eva attitude [Music] complete so again we we've got dragon's trunk pointing towards the sun watching the cross that was SpaceX core Arthur baralt just letting the crew know uh that where cameras are on inside and uh basically which camera is is looking at them it's it's so fun to hear Arthur's voice because he was actually a part of our mission as well in fact Arthur was an intern started out as we were first starting the training and and so now to see him as a as a core and is is pretty neat very similar to Sarah who also started as an intern yes yeah right we're coming up on one PSI you might see you saw the light change a little bit through that window as we're in our Eva position trunk
