I hope to get a little bit bored
at some point during the mission
and just spend some time reflecting.
So on our nine-day mission,
a lot of the time is very heavily subscribed;
we have lots of little experiments we’re
going to do and tests on the capsule.
We'll have downtime for sleeping,
of course. And we'll also take
a little bit of personal time
during those nine days.
Of course, we're going to spend time
communicating back to Earth and doing
downlinks, which will be really
neat to share our experience.
Obviously, an important pastime for us
is going to be observing out the windows
and looking at the Moon and
the Earth and taking imagery of that.
We have four of these windows,
and today the view is out into
Building 9, of course.
When we're in space, we'll be able to look out
and see things like the Earth and the Moon.
There is actually one more window,
right where that blue cover is,
that is a window, that silver and blue cover.
We’ll have two cameras
on board for the crew
and one is really meant for
inside photography and video work,
and the other lens is meant for outside, to
take imagery of the Moon and the Earth.
We'll have noise canceling headsets
as well as music when we're
exercising, to listen to.
I'm not really bringing anything
with me to entertain myself.
I hope to get a little bit bored
at some point during the mission
and just spend some time reflecting,
maybe journaling a little bit,
writing down my thoughts and
perspective on the journey.
