1 00:00:10,030 --> 00:00:07,360 one of our greatest challenges we face 2 00:00:12,129 --> 00:00:10,040 today is climate change and in order to 3 00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:12,139 mitigate it we need to understand our 4 00:00:15,689 --> 00:00:13,730 planet better 5 00:00:18,700 --> 00:00:15,699 NASA is committed to advancing 6 00:00:20,499 --> 00:00:18,710 technologies and innovation that will 7 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:20,509 bring solutions to address Earth's 8 00:00:26,620 --> 00:00:24,650 critical challenges the now famous image 9 00:00:28,569 --> 00:00:26,630 of the blue marble provides us all with 10 00:00:31,749 --> 00:00:28,579 the humbling epiphany that this tiny 11 00:00:34,150 --> 00:00:31,759 planet we share is our only home today 12 00:00:35,530 --> 00:00:34,160 at NASA we are continuing to provide the 13 00:00:38,470 --> 00:00:35,540 world with new ways to see and 14 00:00:40,869 --> 00:00:38,480 understand planet Earth at the NASA Ames 15 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:40,879 Research Center in California Silicon 16 00:00:45,310 --> 00:00:42,890 Valley an exciting new project is 17 00:00:48,610 --> 00:00:45,320 underway that I think of is the first 18 00:00:50,830 --> 00:00:48,620 lunar outpost on earth just as a lunar 19 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:50,840 outpost designed is optimized for unique 20 00:00:54,639 --> 00:00:52,850 environment of the moon this project 21 00:00:58,389 --> 00:00:54,649 will be tailored with unique location on 22 00:01:08,110 --> 00:00:58,399 earth we call it NASA's sustainability 23 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:20,880 me 24 00:01:24,700 --> 00:01:23,140 leadership is often that described as 25 00:01:26,980 --> 00:01:24,710 being taken to some place you would 26 00:01:28,810 --> 00:01:26,990 never have gotten on your own the kind 27 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:28,820 of leadership that NASA is exhibited in 28 00:01:34,540 --> 00:01:31,490 space is exactly the kind of leadership 29 00:01:36,250 --> 00:01:34,550 we need exhibited on the air the world 30 00:01:37,810 --> 00:01:36,260 needs a whole new way of thinking about 31 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:37,820 the way we design and make things 32 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:39,890 because the current designs are 33 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:41,930 destructive to the earth and its systems 34 00:01:46,540 --> 00:01:43,610 and we need new designs that are 35 00:01:48,670 --> 00:01:46,550 positive to the Earthman systems to 36 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:48,680 achieve this everything we use make and 37 00:01:53,260 --> 00:01:50,810 create needs to be optimized for the 38 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:53,270 place that exists this is what we call 39 00:01:58,270 --> 00:01:56,330 being native to place and if we look at 40 00:02:00,640 --> 00:01:58,280 the sustainability base it's a design 41 00:02:03,940 --> 00:02:00,650 that would fit exactly in its local 42 00:02:07,210 --> 00:02:03,950 climate with local culture for comfort 43 00:02:08,770 --> 00:02:07,220 for civility and for enhancement of 44 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:08,780 society 45 00:02:13,180 --> 00:02:10,490 farm 46 00:02:16,690 --> 00:02:13,190 this closed loop thinking that nASA has 47 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:16,700 to do it just as by nature in trying to 48 00:02:21,430 --> 00:02:19,610 sustain life outside of litter ecosystem 49 00:02:24,430 --> 00:02:21,440 was something that we actually try to 50 00:02:26,260 --> 00:02:24,440 employ back in our designs here on earth 51 00:02:29,290 --> 00:02:26,270 and so there's a wonderful wedding of 52 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:29,300 the NASA technologies and our approach 53 00:02:35,059 --> 00:02:31,850 to architecture and design and and 54 00:02:40,129 --> 00:02:37,699 our goal is to reduce energy demand 55 00:02:42,649 --> 00:02:40,139 through passive strategies and utilize 56 00:02:45,619 --> 00:02:42,659 solar and other systems to supply enough 57 00:02:49,190 --> 00:02:45,629 power so that the building will have net 58 00:02:52,099 --> 00:02:49,200 zero energy consumption it fits with the 59 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:52,109 idea of self-sufficiency goals of a 60 00:02:57,580 --> 00:02:55,530 lunar base from its innovative 61 00:03:00,319 --> 00:02:57,590 environmentally friendly materials and 62 00:03:02,690 --> 00:03:00,329 efficient design to its real-time 63 00:03:04,190 --> 00:03:02,700 intelligent control systems this 64 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:04,200 structure will exceed today's 65 00:03:08,980 --> 00:03:06,450 expectations for high-performance 66 00:03:11,620 --> 00:03:08,990 building 67 00:03:14,020 --> 00:03:11,630 we will take sensor technologies 68 00:03:16,300 --> 00:03:14,030 originally developed for NASA space 69 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:16,310 missions and incorporate them into the 70 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:19,490 new building a dynamic web connecting 71 00:03:25,180 --> 00:03:21,770 these sensors will continuously monitor 72 00:03:27,700 --> 00:03:25,190 all subsystems we are designing a system 73 00:03:29,980 --> 00:03:27,710 that could be likened to biofeedback for 74 00:03:34,350 --> 00:03:29,990 buildings this will truly be an 75 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:34,360 intelligent intuitive cognitive system 76 00:03:39,460 --> 00:03:37,250 today NASA and its partners are working 77 00:03:41,290 --> 00:03:39,470 to develop the tools that will redefine 78 00:03:43,810 --> 00:03:41,300 the way that we visualize and think 79 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:43,820 about our home planet projects such as 80 00:03:48,190 --> 00:03:46,010 Google Earth and our planetary skin 81 00:03:49,810 --> 00:03:48,200 partnership with Cisco represent 82 00:03:51,430 --> 00:03:49,820 technologies that can visualize and 83 00:03:53,770 --> 00:03:51,440 track changes to the environment from 84 00:03:56,980 --> 00:03:53,780 global to regional and down to 85 00:03:58,450 --> 00:03:56,990 neighborhood scales by linking the 86 00:04:00,910 --> 00:03:58,460 choices of an individual to the 87 00:04:03,010 --> 00:04:00,920 performance of a building to the energy 88 00:04:04,780 --> 00:04:03,020 consumption of a city to the carbon 89 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:04,790 footprint of a region we can better 90 00:04:09,970 --> 00:04:07,570 understand and manage climate change 91 00:04:12,340 --> 00:04:09,980 creating and testing new decision 92 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:12,350 support tools like these will be an 93 00:04:17,010 --> 00:04:13,850 essential component of the 94 00:04:20,410 --> 00:04:17,020 sustainability based project 95 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:20,420 just as the lunar landing on tranquility 96 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:23,330 base represented a giant leak during the 97 00:04:29,620 --> 00:04:26,690 space race so sustainability base will 98 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:29,630 stand as an icon symbolizing masses 99 00:04:35,710 --> 00:04:32,090 dedication to solving the environmental 100 00:04:37,660 --> 00:04:35,720 challenges we face on earth we are proud 101 00:04:41,070 --> 00:04:37,670 that this project will be unique 102 00:04:43,540 --> 00:04:41,080 developed in a way that only NASA can 103 00:04:46,050 --> 00:04:43,550 showcasing what can be accomplished 104 00:04:48,660 --> 00:04:46,060 today while serving as a living 105 00:04:51,100 --> 00:04:48,670 experimental platform for new 106 00:04:54,010 --> 00:04:51,110 energy-efficient technologies as they 107 00:04:56,140 --> 00:04:54,020 evolve in the future this effort will 108 00:04:58,300 --> 00:04:56,150 also serve as an engine for 109 00:05:00,400 --> 00:04:58,310 public-private partnerships to 110 00:05:04,030 --> 00:05:00,410 accelerate the development of earth 111 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:04,040 friendly innovations it's time for the
