Joe Rogan Experience #1425 - Garrett Reisman
Garrett Reisman explains adaptation to space, spacewalk training, a repair solved through thermal expansion and living in an underwater habitat. Selected opening-caption coverage of a February 2020 interview. Spaceflight forecasts are historical, not current status reports.
Executive Summary (TL;DR)
Garrett Reisman describes life in orbit through details that often disappear from grand stories about exploration: weakened balance on return, changed taste, food storage, restrictive suits and the effort of using one's hands. He explains how practice and suit adjustments helped him become qualified for demanding spacewalks, then recounts a connector problem solved by using temperature differences. Underwater habitat stories highlight isolation and the inability to leave instantly during an emergency. The available conversation later considers why the shuttle was retired and the hopes for commercial crew flights. Selected coverage only: the supplied English captions stop during discussion of launch-abort hardware; later parts of the episode are not covered. Physiological statements and operational stories are Reisman's account, not medical or diving instructions. Vehicle schedules and industry descriptions belong to February 2020 and are not presented as current facts. Original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RG5pXTpLBI .
