5:32 am
a lady with what i see school for carbonate port, backwards thank same. you have something that might give me a port to me. got dor today, the status of last week on your snow krinski pix data, which it is said to jeff. so i use the menu to run that even don't can be coma loosened. and the couple of somebody mp community that they call a left and you know, it is all like suppose to the start up, the keys affected the door only out of that too. i didn't need it with us. that's clear but, but that was the wouldn't just leaving it right. nobody for whether you do a full facility at them during the summer because i see a reason why we should show credits on much but he did. we cannot create world was it was the was a, as any business with us,
5:33 am
if you will. the dish is getting there at kistin opened to chicago, and i wished him a to passed after littleton, donald protestant, when one of the 11 i see thing up was the experience itself. i, i mean the nuts and bolts of it, the training, et cetera, that, that wasn't too difficult. so in that sense, it was underwhelming and i bought up the experience of being up there and looking at the planet that was quite out of the ordinary air. and it did doesn't leave, you was ready back full plan then. now, when you return back that way, when you look at the kale for a response, you get because of it before i compared to today,
5:34 am
space flight was still a bit of a novelty or so. and especially in india and india because we never had any activity like that so. so that was to, for girls of so people generally reacted so much to the image which was built up there. and there was only one tv channel at that time so. so in effect, her space came into the drawing room. so for our indians and that we made quite an impact with them. so as a result of that, the adulation and all was some the one was where he, unprepared for so bad. so that was the difficult part, but then again, if you look at it as a, as, as a professional, like i said, ah, the flight itself, the professional part of it somehow was not challenging enough. i would say primarily because a lot of control resort was done by the computers and there we were bigger test fi
5:35 am
left. we were in a fight a valid before that. but we are used to more hands on control. so it affected was like waiting to see what happens. so you are just a curious anoka of during the transit. yeah, it did take us something to adapt to 0 gravity that took some doing because you can't replicate bug i the exact conditions on ground. therefore, you're not trained for that, so you fail of learning on the job. so that was i would say the segment that was a bit challenger, but otherwise back or did you choose to participate in the program? how difficult was the competition and why do you think that you were chosen her? i tell you of anybody, anybody. and i think we were probably about
5:36 am
a 1000000000 at that time. if you had us, anybody, anybody would of wanted to go because it was, it was such an wellness, call it and out of the world experience her. so who won't want a piece of that action? uh huh. but to be quite frank. oh i never ever dreamed. it wasn't one of my dreams . of course i dreamt of being a fighter pilot and i became one luckily. have but never ever thought of going into space because our country never had a manned space program. so it would have been should title to just even think about . so i never thought about her, but oh, it was ours was a different i think our flight was before it's time. or even now of we are just prepared, a babs next year. we'll be sending our own now indian astronauts a border
5:37 am
e bay indian launchers using indian technology. so we're talking about what happened 40 years earlier. so, so really speaking from, from my a planning standpoint of israel was really not ready to get into this part or for expiration is so was just busy with the satellite program. so, but because that then soviet russia, well wondered if i was, i have beneficiary of the cold war, i would say, because there was competition going on between america and russia. and russia wanted to, wanted the world to know that india is with them in their can. so they offered that flight to india. and i it's so like i said was not keen. and then mrs. gandy offered the flight to the the air force and ready gladly and in air
5:38 am
force grabbed. and then the, the soviet said that it would be better if we could get a test pilot because there wasn't any time left. the elections were on the gonna. so so, so i happened to be a young at that time, relatively happened to be fit because i was always an outdoorsy kind of a person in. and i happened to re lucky her to be the right guy at the right place of the right time. so could you tell us a bit about your grass, so we are to colleagues, your interactions with them? the grooves were, i mean they were like, like a via does anywhere in the world. we have a special bond. so in that sense that done, i was the only guy doing the 1st flight. there were 3 of us, the other 2 eulu militia than good. now this circle of
5:39 am
a boss where i had already flown into space. so there was that sense of comfort with them and um, can i the, i think all in all it was i, it was already a truthful interaction, a very good, the mentoring. and there was no problem whatsoever. where was the so you steam beast and where we were trained, we did our training in o outside moscow. that star city does the unit ga gonna lead space sir facility the training facility and our that's where we trend. ellen, we moved to by conner from where the launch to miss. so the final part of the training, just prior to the launch, the practiced, ah, the last minute things like docking, if it won't go well them how to we are still managed to retrieve ah,
5:40 am
the space way to sell. because if you can dockwood the laboratory, then you can do any experiments. so, so that's what all the training was in moscow out of moscow. joe's and he got out of that star city. do you remember your fears? if any, in the process or preparing for your 1st flight, i was an experienced just by that. by the time i was cynic plan, i would say that her all. i won't even sail military of yet us olivia to us. her reconcile with the prospect of it bigger, riskier profession than what everybody thinks, dor today, i would say that crossing a road where this traffic is equally to ski. barbara being a riskier profession. some are we all of us professionals of come to cummings by then. so there was no fear at battle level and not. and the way i
5:41 am
processed the fact that i would not be in control. and that my destiny is going to be shaped by a computer. ah, it'll shoot, i have to worry. and so therefore, i just took it in my straight. okay. if it works, it works, it doesn't work, but then i was not the 1st guy going up so many had been there before me and, and then they returned to. so, i mean, i really wasn't worried that on i was an observer. what are your 1st thoughts when you realized that you were actually in faith? it was an absolutely stunning. no. of course, by that time, i would say gotten, went up in the c early sixty's and the americans followed thereafter. so there was a lot of material already in the media in terms of photographs and things. so why
5:42 am
really knew what, what to expect. and they were color photographs, but when you actually go up there and the experience, the, or i would say the environment to go, you're floating all the time. some the, you're not used to that and, and the visuals are absolutely stunning. and it's, you know, in a very impactful way, at the scale on which things are and i, i would say that that gives you a, a wider perspective of your own existence. no. and therefore, you start, you will return as somebody who was a lot more mindful about the fact that there is no other place now, which is as comfortable as planet earth. and therefore, oh, we really needs to look after that and not to we need to take care of the
5:43 am
sources and use them frugally and not do what we are doing because we are systematically, i think you do agreed a deal to our so quarter development. but we are exhausting the limited resources which planet earth has got an bab. therefore you come back with a with a changed perspective in that sense. how long will you in face for we went up in the saw us. we've talked with the ssl, you were transferred to the side, you saw a tunnel which was formed due to the coupling of her. so use of the solute and we lived in the solute which essentially is a steel cylinder, much smaller, smaller than this. oh. and then that's it, me worked there for so it was in that confined space. we stayed for 8 or days,
5:44 am
but that's no great shakes because the word record is $400.00 plus days. so. so i said it's a wonderful place to wizard, but a difficult place to work in i would say everything keeps flying because there's no gravity. so all your a da asks you have to do it sequentially. so you can't let things keep it on the table. i mean, everything would be flying off the table. so one by one, you go to do those stocks and it takes a lot longer. you need a lot more patience, julie de not more diligence. but that's, this is something which you pick up and you learn on the job really curious to know what you eat in space to watch for good faith. we had to choose between 80 dishes now, and i of course said that it, it could be laid out like a, like a buffet on. so you had to go to the larder and select whatever you wanted. and
5:45 am
that is a whole you way of eating. there we go, it and in fact, even the way the food was prepared, ah, like rice was prepared and in a manner such that the grains would stick to each other so that they don't fly about and 0 gravity. so you had to gov. piece out with your spoon and put it in their mouth. so they were non registered and dishes. they were you know, while we were under training, we were introduced or different kinds of foods. and that's when they found out who was fond of worked and they used to make sure that when that crew goes up, those dishes are available. those thing in the tins and bread zen with honey and stuff in her, it was lovely. and yet at least my appetite increases. i, i over it, i the, i felt the need for more mustard. you know,
5:46 am
because because of taste buds gonna come alive. i saw it was, it was nice. there's no problem at all. so did you do any sort of special exercises to stay fit out there? now you do because i'm, when i believe that when you're not using muscles and remember the hot is also a muscle. it tends to get d condition when you're in 0 gravity. so because nothing with so exercises you don't do so you have to find ways to load your body either from a cardiovascular standpoint, all from her, from the, from the, for the muscle tone to return. so you, you do a good of dynamic tension. you do the bit of running or cycling her over there just so that you get, give yourself a cardiovascular massage. and so there are techniques and that's how you will skin
5:47 am
. so i have for the, for more than former days. now let's see how, what solutions that come up with when you actually walk to the more known and other planets. you spoke to the den, prime minister off india in better are gone from there. what did she say to you? well, but she got off her lead the questions richer, i would say the arrest of the observers in our country were keen to know the answers off so. so naturally the question, one of the questions was, she congratulated all of us for having completed our training and having a successful launch. and they law of course, the inevitable question as to how india looks from space. so. so one have to describe that. in fact, i would say that i did try my best to share that experience because
5:48 am
one of the programs from orbit was when i was given a video camera and i took it around the spur salute 7 and through the windows showed them how the earth looks it was my attempt to share the lovely visuals with my countrymen. would you likes to return to space? i would yes. ah, i would. what i would like to return as a tourist. reason being that her space is such a inexpensive activity that when i was there last, each minute of the space flight was one, had to do something or the other to make the flight productive. so there was no time really to press your nose against the window and look at the world. go by. so i don't mind going back again. but as a tourist, back in the deep did you have any astronaut for all models? of like i said this, this fell out of the blue into my lap and all of us,
5:49 am
of course, you do that govern was a, was a, the one who started it on. and then he was entered in there and that was created quite a splash. so these were household names, utica gutter, and allen shepherd and all these guys are a little solely later that when one was actually in this game, one cells that one realised the degree of difficulty. that is there. for example, we're in star city or met icons like well and in that that a school i like leon of and then you found out that the kind of stuff they did, they did it for the world 1st time love went out into open space for an extra curricular activity. now the association of space explorers. you guys like roost mccandless, you read about john young. i mean, these were real heroes. you know,
5:50 am
the, because mccandless was untethered. he was, he was flaying floating next to the shuttle without any dinner and her. and he was trying out the man maneuvering unit so, so there were a lot of role models. but before i actually went, these are i was or names, but you didn't really know what exactly they did. do you believe in existence, off life, outside of faith in aliens? perhaps the happy doors have to look out. yeah, i think we got a heads living on this planet. but because there are guys number here of people who are really greedy, who don't bother about her about either the environment for, for personal gain, people who don't her share. oh, where do you want to take all of this?
5:51 am
it all. so we're revising, misunderstood the concept of our firm to living and exclusive lifestyle. those business off, oh, rallying under a flag and her protecting your borders. and when, when all of us have a common destiny, actually you know, and we are interdependent on each other so. so conflict for profit. oh, i mean this was a brilliant concept except when it comes to the way india looks at it all. the inclusiveness now our, our culture is, is different as we look at the world as one family. so should doctors the difference talking about aliens, other intelligences? i think it's typically arrogant of us. you once to think that we are the only
5:52 am
intelligent life in this was universe. it is just that our sense of distance is limited to oh, whatever we are used to live and science hasn't really yet opened all the doors. we really don't know how we can change dimensions. we don't know what lies on the other side of a black old. maybe there are other universes that other civilizations just that we haven't made contact. but to take steps in the army, will me guys if really lever that special? would we behave the ravia behaving? is my question and my dog, and therefore i think that has to be alien life more reward than us. and in fact, i look forward to that kind of her contact her. i've been a, i believe font of science fiction. and her, the stopping has been covered wildly or by science fiction movies my books. and it
5:53 am
resonates with me. do you believe in the next 50 years the thor will be able to open a settlement outside of art on another planet. maybe? yeah, we, we, from a techno logical standpoint we will be able to open, but wherever we are willing to drive anything from it or on, on a, on a, on a happiness scale. i have my doubt of dramatically because i your, your leaving buttered eyes and going into a desolated here trying to rebut of another butter does. whenever it actual fact a you have not been able to sustain the battery as you are in so, so i would say technologically it will be you will be capable of doing that. but i
5:54 am
would rather that i some kind of regulation comes in me because our track record hasn't been very good at all. so there's not weren't building a far off hill when you have better as right here. so let's practice sustainability on planet earth 1st. before we move out, otherwise we are going to after us or de loser, wherever we go in our solar system. i move, we go to get our act right. we go to see what we've done. we must realize what is the end use off of technology. we've never bothered about that is for the atom and we have made nuclear bombs yet. oh oh, it's time to get off this belt of fur, shall we say development technology, local development, and ask ourselves some hard questions and get our act rate. before we move out, if you were offered to colonize on the planets without the possibility of coming
5:55 am
back to light, would you take up that offer? yeah, i would, i would do that with the, with a different set of rules. i would do that. i mean, here we already have the united nation office or for outer space affairs, which has got oh, was in 2020 document which stalks off the a fall to space being for the greater good of human kind by we don't see any results on the ground so, so, you know, you got all there has to be alignment awful, vision. before we start achieving that, risen if we are going to continue all in the same way. then all we are doing is exporting conflict from planner to us into all to space. so therefore i need, we need to be, i believe you need to be a lot more circumspect. and i think, oh, countries like india, countries like russia really who we have a different world view. we have a different l o, clock to space we,
5:56 am
we talk off cooperation. oh, we talk or share of data or whereas sir, the western hemisphere. no, because of the economic model they're following. it's all about profit and profit is all about exclusion or not inclusion. so, so there are a lot of complex things to be taken care of. so yes, sir, i would encourage because ultimately, the factors, the human race is at risk of some asteroids comes and hits us. and we do not have a copy of her gentleman anywhere else. so so yes, we do need a backup plan, but not as chaotic as, as we have now. and we need people to invest more in, in the future of human kind and which has to be enclosed antarctic schools. ah,
5:57 am
i think in the south there is a much, a clear understanding of the causes meeting up to this crisis. even though the best in position is that it is an approval i think that will miss out understand that this is part of the u. s. lead to best strategy for the can team and a fresh fungal pathway to the containment of china. ah fuck it with the quote issue, just a good asshole sheet to work on your book. you books from which manually would you
5:58 am
allow what you see is not a strip of denial for you more you need to put ecology. yeah. hold on. just a minute. when you react well, then you put the fluids medium. i didn't know what i actually spoke. i did it when you are a stick with to mr. she was i wish him to lead you. who is this little boy at the tone, please? yeah, it's no, it's no rude you, but as it will, you can lose this money still to with that i know that
5:59 am
i can i those numbers of national with that slow out, make them get the water neutral to ship them yet from facia viciously by the same with what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy even foundation, let it be an arms race who is on very dramatic development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult time time to sit down and talk
6:00 am
with a lot of marapoo visits. the recently incorporated russian territories up the loot against republic and her song, the region 2 here in the military updates directly from the commanders of local force. it also had on the program this our, the nation's leader, also hale's aid, high level of snap naval drill company in the pacific. at ortiz, correspondence isn't bad, but the russian fleet, which is being held on high alert to test it readiness, made soaring tensions with water where they can go on.
