boris morakot of his interview coming up. well for the next question what mr merkel thank you very much for being with us today marks five hundred is your idea of your courage and on its close to its completion the experimenting members are about to walk out of this chamber or whatever how does it feel it's been seventeen months are you nervous. coming home and of course i'm anxious as we are more anxious than when they just walked in now we're looking forward to the end of the experiment of course such extensive isolation will require the crew to spend some time in rehabilitation will be hard work for us to analyze the results but the very fact of

a team managed to stay the course is a source of delight and that of. the ground must be from the very start there has been much controversy over marse five hundred especially among professionals when i mean yes people say that you can become a formula one driver by spending a year and i have any driver see these ordinary people who don't know much about the experiment are likely to ask was the purpose of spending fifty million dollars to isolate six able bodied men from the rest of the world are seventeen month old sister. of course for the purpose is as follows the experiment has been designed to define the limits of human capacities like a mission to mars is an idea that's been on people's minds for at least fifty years feasible projects of flights to the red planet were developed his early as in the one nine hundred sixty s. then space exploration took a different course but the beginning of the twenty first century was again marked by growing interest in flights beyond the orbit flights to other planets it will

put space. science on a new level in terms of technologies knowledge and extended limits of human capacities that work on the international space station is viewed as a preparation for interplanetary voyages and from. here the experiment is supposed to stretch the limits of human capacities so does it give you any specific answers like one can hear in those first three mars who will be the tinier to step onto its surface. with regular cars as a friend of mine once said it's not even the first step we've only lifted off to take that first step before we decide on the equipment that we used in a flight to mars we first need to have an understanding of the limits of the human body his psychological and physiological capacities secondly we need to decide on the amount of resources to be taken along on the way our life support system will operate during such long missions and communications between the crew and the earth

will be a different ballgame in over two flights much of the work rests on the shoulders of the specialists on the ground and interplanetary mission is also characterized by autonomy independence you can't turn back it's a totally different situation and without testing and identifying the primary elements the life support system the volume of the resources needed the human capacities it's difficult to make plans even on and initial design of a future spacecraft research in human capacities should go before the design of a spacecraft though our scientists are quite active in with designing new vehicles for this is an experimental facility it can serve as a model or give us the data on the real science that we needed for a real flight anyway a mission to mars will most likely consist of four crew not six or more the mission will need to cut the amount of resources that we've taken aboard. that was from problem the thing is that the crew members know that in any case of emergency scientists can interfere at any point unlike in space and solve the problem in

a way that would be different to space conditions so does this fact evaluate the scope of the experiment was more than. a dozen although this is a major factor on a real trip you realize that you're away and you cannot make a u. turn even if you wanted to that you will take the road back only after you've reached that goal in contrast the crew locked up here is fully aware that they're not far away from the center of moscow it's very hard to imitate this factor but what we can imitate is the isolation from the outside world although at the same time we seek to keep some form of interaction between the crew and the world because it's a kind of psychological support one of the limitations we've introduced was the ban on direct real time voice contacts and the digital exchange of information was allowed that limitation lasted for four hundred twenty days and when the voice calls were allowed again their faces grew much brighter it raised their mood

a lot before that they led a very isolated life of course like on any space mission they sought ways to vent their dissatisfaction they made friends with the ground control dispatches they had friends and maybe even enemies but in principle this project was marked by a high level of isolation would appear on the lead in a let's go to. what were the crew motivated what can encourage a person to stay away from their relatives and friends for seventeen months is not really as likes to march the experiment one make them world famous and proud to be the first to land a nurse that would go along with their stall bit of magnifica grouper there's a profession called a test engineer and i think i can only count myself as part of this group it's the people who are always one step ahead of what's actually going on in space or in the case of an emergency so they're just enthusiasm. helping mankind to move forward not just in the fuse iesus incident months is a pretty long period of life but it's really

a loan for me too i'm among those who have been affected. but there surely had enough money for that when you know this is no big money in my view is it a secret you know it's not cream you know we've promised to pay three million roubles we've agreed that the amount of compensation for the europeans and russians will be roughly the same when the chinese agency employs different criteria anyway the point i would like to underline is that it's an international crew they've been many concerns that they would split into groups according to the language the chinese member is a representative of a totally different culture and ancient culture because there was a report saying that three months before they experienced statue and ending think kuhn members stopped writing letters is it true and if yes what are the reasons even the very avid writers even though they have an opportunity to make voice calls at least with ground control they still bright letters and write

a lot. today never separating. because they are never there was a moment which was during a shared jeweled emergency blackout when any means of communication was cut off they didn't have access to any information it only lasted a week but you know the interesting thing about it was that they didn't complain they said they even liked it it's so quiet they worked in an autonomous mode they had instructions on how to behave and plan of action and then what do they usually read it he just said these are long messages what's in the reputable for information channels to transmit medical data in-house information scientific information accumulated for research and experiments and the space crews private correspondence i learned that one person on the team is writing a book i'm not sure what is to become of it but nevertheless and it's a book about the experiment. yes the book is about the experiment excerpts of the crew's new books get published and this is what distinguishes europeans from the

representatives of russian culture they used to describing their experience in the blogs and on live journal pages and rather naturally these publications generate massive response the writers get a lot of informational response walk away from this report so the europeans get some feedback from the public great. republican performer exactly the public sends their messages to us first and we redirect them to the crude work of there are two sides to this is a positive and a negative one if the message contains some distressing reports it may trigger a negative reaction. here for the us presence with look at a means to the crew members or see if they even know about the war in libya they know that it's nami almost right there in japan or do you screen the information that's coming to them or no. prob there would be no global catastrophes or a major concern to them for example the news of the explosion adama dead of

international airport in moscow was not delivered to them immediately at some point so i had to break the news myself in a video address and they were mad at us because we had not informed malia despite the sadness of such reports they should be delivered on time withholding information can trigger a negative reaction. because he will don't get any sunlight in the given up on their favorite occupations at some time now what kind of psychological impact is it has zero risk that. kind of psychological follow up later. with thinking no but i'm not sure about the consequences but i do know that a person needs social rehabilitation after such experiments because he practically drops out of his every day life according to a long time i remember one case when a man was afraid of crossing the street after taking part in a long term experiment such things happen they were too. back to normal later of course and even cross the street running in inappropriate places all i want to say

is that such experience always leaves traces of a person gets used to living in a capsule is like a stereotype and it goes changes everything is planned for him by other people though the crew over the opportunity to take their own decisions or introduce changes from time to time but all the same we really know what we will be doing in a week's time in real life and then everything proceeds according to plan we used but was putting my from. any of the crew surprises you personally in what we. knew you. yes the chinese participants surprised me i was surprised by the smoothness with which he joined the team he stablish good stable relations with every crew member there were always certain tensions between people you can't help it but he made really huge progress in the course of the experiment it was always visible and he became a professional for the russian participants surprised me too in

a way i should say we made the right choices when forming the crew when there was absolutely no dictator among participants no self-proclaimed commander they base their relations on consensus when you can talk and reach an agreement even if something has gone wrong and someone is dissatisfied it's important to be able to put the common cause and interests of this small group of people prior to your own feelings and ambitions. has anyone from them have a chance of taking a part in his remarks. it's a question of time or we don't know when it happens i know it's a silly question to ask of national but still been exposed to so many movies about mars missions that it has become almost an obsession to colonize when do you think we will finally make it to inhabit mars is not the same thing as to perform one space trip to mars to start with the first trip you can't colonize mars without first landing on it it is technically viable there are a number of projects in our design is all working on them but whether we fly to

mars or not depends on two things this space flight should be authorized and international cooperation should be established because it won't be the congressman to one single nation or group of people but rather of the entire global community. was it an intentional decision to leave the hole in. it no it was not intentional moreover we had applications from women candidates and in one of their preliminary tests we even had a female commander there are two things that can account for the absence of women on the team we did not make a point of the candidate sex or make distinctions between men and women of what we looked at the level of proficiency character traits the ability to work on a team and many other qualities of the woman as we. know there are different women but personally i would be sorry to put a woman in such conditions because a man can break his daily routine much more easily than a woman it applies to his private life family and even the professional career

and these are the headlines this morning saying read to scar struggles to do don't buy is sent off as his side that helped with golden rule by tribes and support in the champions league. while we're now although his his hundred goal to send the spanish team through to the last sixteen. and cruising in croatia to remain unbeaten in basketball surely after an easy win. stop the champions league where to mantis go where else would go a stroll by traps and spore in turkey last night strikers to do done by was sent off after a second yellow card the result leaves the army man second in the group just ahead of traps in spore on goal difference from four points behind leaders in thailand. short of a place in the stage. said afterwards he felt his side created the chances to take three points even when they went down to ten men but they will be without suspended to do their next match against lille elsewhere real madrid reached the last sixteen

of the competition after it to know when that leon's christiane are now low scoring both to reach as hundred golmaal started for the club since moving day in two thousand and nine reale have one hundred percent record in the group and still haven't conceded a goal of five points behind in the second after their rations denominate grab but reality. says there's still work to be done. when we create so many chances and don't score. is betraying you but we continue to try and didn't. choose to continue to clean well and finally what happened happened i think in the end of the formants was very good on a difficult pitch against a team which tried to give everything. now we've achieved your objectives we have to hold on to the top police in the group. meanwhile move to the top of going to see after that so you know when the over remaining minnows galati antonio valencia getting the first ball the second with a known goal christians are gates writes ferguson's men then leave the group on

goal difference from benfica. barsel and united boss was happy with the night's work. when it was going to be important to was that was the position because of drawing the first two matches. think that. is that. very very good more city goals which is an important factor the more because. because of all the criticism in terms of defending. so these are things for us through three games a little with are we going to go with i think is a step forward for us. by munich stay on top of group after three it's a win at home to not play germany striker mario gomez for the first half hat trick although both sides were changed to ten men in the second half. and finds holes out

by taking up double four kings punch to city a second in that group after three no win as villareal and i looking forward to a team that. now we have a good chance and we know that. we would be in naples where probably. would be very odd that was important that we i don't feel that these two really play very well. after the first go probably was easier but it. was really important. the turn of the europa league tonight where rubin take on spurs and is than with the two time russian champions needing a result to keep alive their hopes of reaching the next round they are third in their group a point behind pirates and three behind leaders tottenham and with only two games left rubin can't afford to let those gaps get any bigger but there is unlikely to make any changes to the side through with at the weekend with these. valdes

a cigarette after ten minutes the muscovites were twenty two thirteen up last night thanks to the episode under the cover lanka who eventually chipped in for fourteen points and after half an hour that lead had stretched to sixty seven thirty five. also in good form top scoring with fifteen points in getting on the end of this breakaway keeping control riding to the ending croatia recalled their third victory from three games and that puts them in charge and close to sealing a nearly top. sixteen sport cases grabbed me while i have yet to win. in other games last night caleb league group with three wins from three themselves after their victory over at n.p.r. also with one hundred percent regular are wanted for charity c.n.n. . where union limpia got there the winning group the second pro called seven hundred sixty two to score danny green unstoppable in that one to twenty three points. now the new spirit is of all nobody is in

a race against time to be fit for russia's fed cup final against the czech republic this weekend the world number seven is struggling with a shoulder injury the end of a long season constantine for top off as the. the fed cup final is the last tournament in the women season was a busy month for russia's top players when i know it is a bit in three vans for deep during a season accumulate and lead to injuries but the twenty seven year old grand slam winner hopes to be fit to play but he. has got some problems with my shoulder they had a cameo i'm going to have some rehabilitation i think everyone's got some interest after such a tight season we still have a few days before the start of the final and i will try my best to be in top form and it seems like money you could really ankle was surprised as everyone else when she was selected for the fed cup final however the twenty four year old showed an

impressive improvement in her game after a relatively disappointing start to the season. had a salad and then i was a citizen and i even got to that particular differ some rest so i am fully recovered and back to training i was surprised when i was called up for the finals but the captain said the team needs me and i can't dissipate russia in the czech republic have played each other four times and there is nothing between the teams the czechs were crowned five times with their last final in one thousand nine hundred eight where czechoslovakia defeated the soviet union the previous encounter was in two thousand and one when russia won two one and russia's captain showed me that the issue of state the chances for the crown a level to michelle is before the start of the compay and we were considered to be the favorites but now i suppose our chances are fifty fifty we will be under pressure because of that and it would be easier for us to play. the czech republic is led by informed be at a computer i was just one of the w t a championship having two left handed players

world number two crito up and looters are forty two on the roaster can become a serious advantage for the visitors as well as double stock where the bishop and the czechs don't consider themselves as they are on the docks for the tight. it's the. homan i know that i'm number one in the team so it's a little oppression remembering it still but still we have a great team it's difficult definitely for both of the teams and. yeah i feel. a little advantage on our side. the fed cup final between russia and the czech republic will keep call from certainly the olympians kurian in moscow which has already hosted the two thousand and three decider with russia one playing there this time the crown will extract nothing between three for their favorites on home soil. and funny fresh from claiming gold spigots prize of two million dollars rory mcilroy wants to continue his winning ways in shanghai uniform
