thank you very much, thanks, above all, for
the invitation and today we will talk in a world
where technology is the master
what are the importance of the
human relationship when one thinks about it
technology definitely and see one
space mission beautiful association of
ideas
it is almost as a consequence going into the
space is something that will remain for
some time something extremely
exciting from a personal point of view
but also highly technological think
just that in just over 8 minutes e
half must pass from zero altitude
speed 0 to over 400 km altitude
28 thousand kilometers per hour
when one looks at the cabin of the
shuttle as one sees it here inside
there are about 1300 different switches
and I can assure you that when one
takes off the preparation was
so repetitive and complete that it knows
exactly what it is for
switch and in which phase however
I often say that this is not just this
the photo of the shuttle’s cabin but it is
a photo of a small company because
contrary to what happens
inside the cabin of any one
commercial transport aircraft
I mean their normal plan that we
we take to go on vacation where the
pilot or the commander can
physically stretch a hand and
reach any switch that
there is on board a spacecraft
this is impossible, certainly not
it was possible for the shuttle and when
Apple look at us deploy certain systems
that could be controlled only by
commander who is left other than
only by the pilot who is on the right e
some only from the flight engineer who
she was sitting in the middle
then we are talking about relationships
of human dynamics that also in
highly technological missions
become predominant and in particular
if one were to think of three words that
describe how relationships are created
I would put it inside a crew
competence trust interdependence
well competence is easy because everyone
of their tasks and no one else is in
physically able to do them then
when one part must be
absolutely prepared for what
must to perform the tasks that are
been assigned
I said trust because I want to have
self-confidence in one’s own
ability to trust in people who
They are with you confidence in technology
which supports trust in the in the team
that you trust right in the team that you
control and interdependence because of
sure whatever you do on board in
any moment has an effect on
others then one immediately understands that if
think how good he is
go to the space alone beautiful the
when he finds himself inside
of the cabin for the first simulation yes
change your mind immediately because it’s impossible
carry out such a complex task
only and then work in a group and maybe
at the base of the work of an astronaut e
of the work of a crew of
flight and we all are in the Hague
human beings and we like to be put in
value for what we know how to do
on board
think that a spacecraft is on board
homework can go to launch a
satellite clean the bathroom and I give you a
range of course everyone would like
launch a satellite and no one would like to
clean the bathroom
but unfortunately it is not so there are
tasks as in any company e
because this is a company I said
before
here are some homework we say that maybe
more showy others less
and he is certainly in the commander of
board give the right one
the right balance between the members
of the crew of various gods
tasks and I flew several years ago
I am and I was sitting in the center like yes
see in this picture
when one leaves for space
surely he knows exactly what he has to do
do when to do it because to do it and how
do it because they’ve been made to repeat it
so many times that he comes out of it
hair tip though as in all
great adventures you need when you leave
and you still have to bring along
some pillars of priorities
brings you your own skills and the
his own enthusiasm
preparation but leave a little bit anyway
of free mind to accept what
we still do not know why for whom
wants the first time is still a
journey to the unknown starting
from the fact that not one does not even know
how he will feel from a point of view
physical once arrived in orbit
this is a picture taken on board during
the release of a satellite and when it is
there is a continuity in orbit
physics that is hardly experienced
on earth the bodies intersect there
I can assure you that level of
toleration to be extremely
high because the part that comes to
contact with you of your colleague certain
sometimes it is not even the noblest one
and the other thing we are used to
do when we work and work
especially if these schemes in the past
they gave us a hand and work for
schemes
Well I wanted to bring this picture
because what you see is called
globe box is a closed container
within which we set fire
at paper experiments turn on the acli
we lit you say why it is
important is important because when
you have to imagine in a closed environment if
there is a fire or depressurization is
extremely risky for the crew
but if I asked you how often
it happens unfortunately during the summer here
in Italy
in which direction the flames go when
there is fire in a wood and when
pull the wind you could answer
stupid question to the police headquarters in the evening
because the flames go in the same
wind direction
then one goes into a piece of fire orbit
of paper induces a flow of current
see that the daughters
they go in the direction exactly
contrary to that of the flow
this to say that when they apply
of the schemes and we tend to work for
schemes especially when these schemes
have given results in the past and
we must never forget about them
boundary conditions because these
are crucial to understand what is the
result that can give us this
scheme
obviously flying in space from one
personal point of view a great one
adventure
one sees the world from another
perspective you do not see the world like
a ball as we sometimes see
because that is seen from distances
next the moon which are 400,000 km
while in low Earth orbit you go to
400 kilometers, however, is already sufficient
to see the surface of the earth
continent size above all a
see this very small strip
blue that the atmosphere that keeps the
life on earth as we are
we know it’s a change of
perspective because a change of
colors that the most inconspicuous thing us
we are used to thinking of the blue sky
dark earth then one goes into orbit sees
that the sky is black and the earth is blue
from something that strikes the most
deep of the soul or some photos
because I could not leave without having
shown some photos of the earth seen
from space
modena will be somewhere from in
half this is turin and some photos
taken from space these are gods
dunes shooting offshore and on the coast
of Namibia in Southern Africa
western and then to understand the
change of perspective is not
understands and also gave from this picture
this is a photo of mount everest e
surely it makes a lot less impression
view from top to bottom that does not
from bottom to top change of
perspective is very important
especially in human relationships
we are in my personal experience I have
had to deal with a lot of managers
and I could divide them into two big ones
categories there are people who want
achieve goals by working with
of the people and managers they want
work with people for
reach the goals and the
difference according to me between passion and
pressure ordering someone to do
something or engage people
in a program with shared where they are
they can give the best of themselves and
the secret of working relationships
with some people it’s definitely at
basis of any project that can
have a minimum of success
in fact it is precisely the dimension of
these human relationships that make the
difference between a sustained success and
instead the failure the other thing mentioned
he could not help talking and about how
astronaut seats the earth from space
because it’s something that strikes
really in the deepest of ours
mind there are no arguments a day
today as pollution deforestation
droughts which are rational concepts that
we have to metabolize to look
to understand what they relate to then
one is lucky to go into space and
it does not take a rocket santis like
Americans say to understand this
here the Chad lake in Chad that once
it was so big and now it is reduced
at the center drought becomes an image
which is much more powerful than any
word same thing for pollution
what you see the west part of
China
what you see is called red basin
they are not clouds of steam at how clouds are
smog
there are hundreds of millions of people
burning fossil fuels
the first comment is okay this is the
China this is the Po Valley in
certain periods of the year
and this is the Amazon forest where
deforestation takes this outline
where a road where the trees come
cut were planned at the center
there are some things that I brought
behind from my space flight I have
also applied in other activities
professionals that is above all that
that whatever we do also
when we work with high technology
we must always have an open spirit
to accept the new that comes to us
and then many ask how it’s done for
try to reach excellence
everyone has their own mechanism for me
what worked and whatever
what did you always have a minimum
dissatisfaction because what
then
in the end it pushes you to the challenge
next to give the most of yourself
and why in any organization it has
a value highly certainly has a
excellence is excellent value
individual to improve
the organization because the others will you
they look and especially you can
modify and improve through the
leadership
the example and then anyway for any
team difficult to team if you
you want to fly and as this linus says
if you want to fly surrounded by eagles and
not of chickens thank you very much
