I hoped to one day until he mentioned you can't if you have a propensity for kidney stones. Now I hope reincarnation is real so I have a better chance next time around.
@@bleh6232 Yup. Mike James Massimino is his full name. Check his Wikipedia en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Massimino, he's one of my childhood idols and was also on the Big Bang Theory if I remember correctly.
The chances of getting kidney stones rises when you have low water retention/low urine outflow, calcium loss, and heavy sodium rich foods. Three for three in space. If you already have a predisposition for kidney stones on earth, you're gonna have a bad time in space.
Astronauts are truly the best of the best. Athletes, scientists, and explorers all rolled into one. What a crazy life to be so gifted in so many areas.
I like how he's talking about these topics like he's briefing us on what to expect when we go to space. Sadly I'm not going to space. But I'll gladly listen to you explain it.
So you're telling me there's someone out there with the job title Astronaut Doctor. You throw cowboy at the end and every 10 year old would consider you a god
I’d love one on entertainment. Books, music, movies, that kind of thing. Downtime, if they play games or something. What a normal day is like depending on the job you’re there for.
This really went in depth. I've watched many videos about astronauts explaing things in space and the experience as a whole but this video and questions towards him were really good and he knew the answers to all of them which he probably should know but I was still surprised. Really good video!!!
This guy seems really... Down to earth.... In all seriousness, he sounds like he would have some awesome stories and he makes me want to be an astronaut, even though I’m sure it wouldn’t be the job for me. I love these vids.
Imagine if the military gave the same care to a soldiers mental health as nasa gives. If you see mental health professionals in the military (army) you are looked at as weak or crazy. Trust is lost among peers. It sucked. Loved my job.
I'm in no condition to be approved to visit Space any time soon, however these videos have been absolutely fascinating! Thank you for all you have done Mr. Massimino and everyone involved in the exploration of Space!
I'm disappointed, but not surprised that during the mental health section, he didn't mention the time when NASA pushed a Skylab crew to beyond their breaking point, and they got so burned out that they mutineered and shut off communications with the ground, just so they could get some rest.
This is a myth that you're repeating. There was no mutiny - this was debunked. The communications were merely shut off in error. That said, the crew did experience fatigue and mental health was an issue.
It's crazy how so many things and actions are more complex and as a result take more time to do in space. It's a wonder how they manage to do so much stuff in a day. The fact that they are able to do all the things they need to in order to stay alive in space AND also perform things like scientific experiments or spacecraft maintenance is amazing. And then to do it day after day. Wow.
Its kind of tricky. Menstruation is the same in space as it is on earth but it is not convenient to take tampons up there. Also, the waste disposal system in ISS is not designed to deal with blood. So a lot of astronauts prefer taking birth control. But again packing the amount of birth control pills required for a mission requires a lot of space not to mention the mass of all those pills. Hence, so far one of the better methods of stopping ones period while on a mission is to go for an IUD or some other form of hormone releasing implant/injection to avoid all the logistical problems.
@@nopee4509 I could have fit 6 months worth of my tiny birth control pills in a single aspirin bottle, so I'm not sure about the requiring-a-lot-of-space part....
I worked on one of the treadmills on the ISS. What some astronauts didn't realize was that we could tell when the device was being used...even when an astronaut claimed they were using it when, in fact, they didn't.
I remember hearing about Sunny Williams doing a triathlon while she was up there -- the stationary bike, the treadmill, and the ARED where they had her doing stuff that mimicked swimming. And I think she ran in the Boston Marathon while she was up there once, too -- had a bib and everything.
@@keepitahunnid7133 for a few hours Terra firma felt like it was a boat rocking in the sea! Took a day to get my sea leggs, an hour to get land leggs. As an astronaut I can imagine there are so many things to get use to in space but they recover quickly back on Earth. Muscle memory
Very interesting getting all of these questions answered. It is truly amazing. And these men and women need to be so mentally strong to go through thi. Wow..
I think what will be imperative for long term space travel and self reliance will be Rotating Rings and such to simulate gravity at least partially in one section of a spacecraft where you could then potentially do surgery if necessary.
Couple of question Mike if you read this: 1) Can one still snore in zero-G? 2) Everything aside, do you personally hate the effect of gravity and that feeling of grounding pressure on your body when you come back to earth? Or you actually like it and miss it?
He’s wearing the same suit in all of them. They almost certainly recorded like a hour or more and cut it up into smaller chunks. Channels like these try to keep the videos shorter, plus they can get more ad revenue by chopping them up.
This is probably the hardest problem to overcome for a Mars mission. With elastics you can keep your bone and muscles in shape but there are problems with blood flow and digestion when you have a lack of weight. I think artificial gravity is a must for a Mars mission. Also they should figure out a way to do a zero G surgery for Mars because you can not depend on the artificial gravity being there.
I want to listen to this guy talk more. All of these Wired vids with him are great.
agreeeed, he must be a great professor
his voice warm me

It's pretty cool, like an audiovisual reminder that your're now talking about space stuff.

Oh hey I saw this guy at the Intrepid a few times
I get the impression that things are different in space.
Spiffyriffic like the impression that it is all a ridiculous lie that goes back to ancient Babylon and Jewish/eastern mysticism.
What gave you that impression...
joy jones crack probably
Donnie Joe No... the entire concept of outer space and evolution of man begin in Jewish mystical texts such as the Kabbalah. It’s all a religion, see?
K Clark no
I’ve never had a kidney stone, not had the desire to go to space. Now I’m terrified of getting a kidney stone in space.
your pepe would burn
As we all are now
The chances of getting kidney stones rises when you have low water retention/low urine outflow, calcium loss, and heavy sodium rich foods. Three for three in space. If you already have a predisposition for kidney stones on earth, you're gonna have a bad time in space.
Also, kidney stones are deceptive. A stone implies a smooth, round river rock. An actual kidney stone looks like and feels like an urchin.
Had them. I'm disqualified.
Still waiting for my "in space it's different" shirt.

This was the dude that climbed INSIDE the Hubble to fix it when its lense was messed up. 👍
Story Musgrave?? Massamino didn't fly to Hubble until the 3rd service/repair mission.
How many more things can this guy talk about? I feel like he's covered every single topic about space ha.
next: how space is different in space
I felt that on his 3rd video
I’d love one on entertainment. Books, music, movies, that kind of thing. Downtime, if they play games or something. What a normal day is like depending on the job you’re there for.
Victor Chang The only thing he hasn’t discussed is his involvement in deluding millions of gullible people into believing they are in space.

Mike Massimino - my favourite astronaut
in space.... it's different
**dramatic light change**
🌕🌔🌘🌑🌒🌖🌕
me sitting here listening to him talk which makes me want to be an astronaut but i know i wouldn’t get past the first mental health check
...and I'd fail the physical before I even got to speak to a doctor!
This guy seems really...
Down to earth....
In all seriousness, he sounds like he would have some awesome stories and he makes me want to be an astronaut, even though I’m sure it wouldn’t be the job for me. I love these vids.
In space you can set world lifting records!
But sometimes... its different

Shift lighting
That sucks
If you're weak minded, why join the armed forces?
@@noahshaultz1730 maybe because mental illnesses dont make you weak minded?

They should send you up straight up instead of going out to see where you would explode with the rocket as it hits the FIRMAMENT...
Massimino: *it's different in space*
Me: :0
Mike Massimino. The psychological support I didn't know i needed.

I'm disappointed, but not surprised that during the mental health section, he didn't mention the time when NASA pushed a Skylab crew to beyond their breaking point, and they got so burned out that they mutineered and shut off communications with the ground, just so they could get some rest.
That was in the 70s, and I bet that that incident helped them understand the importance of mental health
French leave. Good on them
According to a couple sources, it seems that wasn't entirely the case:
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skylab_4
This is a myth that you're repeating. There was no mutiny - this was debunked. The communications were merely shut off in error. That said, the crew did experience fatigue and mental health was an issue.

I'd love to have him as my dad. he seems pretty cool.
Like the way he keeps saying “in space” and “on earth”
May I ask, why?
I want to know how women would deal with periods in space. Or are they given birth control to stop it?

Really interesting series. Mike Massimino does a great job on these videos.
Not gonna lie, that lighting change has the same energy as Vsauce’s “or is it?”
