00:00:16,110 --> 00:00:13,450
Science Institute and as we do every

5
00:00:18,300 --> 00:00:16,120
week we have another great hangout plan

6
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:18,310

00:00:23,220 --> 00:00:21,370
Sea Air and Space Museum in New York to

8
00:00:25,080 --> 00:00:23,230
talk about their Hubble at 25 exhibit

9
00:00:26,460 --> 00:00:25,090

so we're going to ask him a few

13
00:00:33,090 --> 00:00:31,180

14
00:00:35,399 --> 00:00:33,100
but before I get to this let me

question and also allows you guys to

34
00:01:18,300 --> 00:01:16,060
upvote different questions if there's

35
00:01:20,039 --> 00:01:18,310
something that's really popular we can

36
00:01:21,389 --> 00:01:20,049
select that there will time stamp it on

37
00:01:25,469 --> 00:01:21,399
YouTube for those that are watching us

38
00:01:27,300 --> 00:01:25,479
later also we are on Twitter so we are

39
00:01:29,669 --> 00:01:27,310
using the hashtag hubble hang out and

40
00:01:32,580 --> 00:01:29,679
I'm also looking at the hashtag Hubble

41
00:01:35,370 --> 00:01:32,590
25 since this is a merging of the two

42
00:01:37,050 --> 00:01:35,380
for our 25th anniversary celebration so

43
00:01:38,599 --> 00:01:37,060
we will be going back and forth i'll be

44
00:01:41,190 --> 00:01:38,609
live tweeting from the Hubble telescope

45
00:01:43,529 --> 00:01:41,200
account so we look forward to those

46
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:43,539
questions awesome thank you Scott and

47
00:01:47,099 --> 00:01:45,490
yes i'll be reading the questions or

48
00:01:49,050 --> 00:01:47,109
comments mostly to the Q&A app and the

49
00:01:50,399 --> 00:01:49,060
common tracker on the youtube page but

50
00:01:52,469 --> 00:01:50,409
scott will also let us know about all

51
00:01:53,819 --> 00:01:52,479
those other and things so don't make me

52
00:01:55,109 --> 00:01:53,829
climb into the internet i think i'm

53
00:01:58,919 --> 00:01:55,119
gaining too much weight for that these

54
00:02:02,489 --> 00:01:58,929
days yeah so just let's get to today's

55
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:02,499
get to today's guest the Hubble Space

56
00:02:07,859 --> 00:02:05,890
Telescope has been in orbit now for 25

57
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:07,869
years and any of you who know anything

58
00:02:13,650 --> 00:02:11,170
about numbers knows that the number 25

59
00:02:17,100 --> 00:02:13,660
is way way better than the number

60
00:02:19,020 --> 00:02:17,110
for we have this tendency when when even

61
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:19,030
numbers rolled around to commemorate

62
00:02:25,260 --> 00:02:22,210
them we celebrate them and we want to

63
00:02:28,770 --> 00:02:25,270
and we are no exception and among the

64
00:02:30,540 --> 00:02:28,780
first people to celebrate the 25th year

65
00:02:33,020 --> 00:02:30,550
of the hubble space telescope in orbit

66
00:02:35,850 --> 00:02:33,030
it was launched in april of nineteen

67
00:02:38,220 --> 00:02:35,860
ninety and we're coming up quickly on

68
00:02:40,140 --> 00:02:38,230
that on that anniversary the people at

69
00:02:43,070 --> 00:02:40,150
the Intrepid Sea Air and Space Museum

70
00:02:46,110 --> 00:02:43,080
have opened an exhibit called Hubble at

71
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:46,120
25 and they're here to tell us about

72
00:02:49,260 --> 00:02:47,530
what they've got going and a little bit

73
00:02:51,630 --> 00:02:49,270
about the museum itself while to talk

74
00:02:55,100 --> 00:02:51,640
about it we have Eric beim he's the

75
00:02:58,860 --> 00:02:55,110
curator of aviation there at the at the

76
00:03:00,510 --> 00:02:58,870
Museum i also have Jerry bay hall she's

77
00:03:02,670 --> 00:03:00,520
the education manager there she is

78
00:03:04,050 --> 00:03:02,680
dealing with the stem she has stem

79
00:03:06,180 --> 00:03:04,060
projects and stuff she's going to tell

80
00:03:08,550 --> 00:03:06,190
us about as well as astronaut Mike

81
00:03:10,590 --> 00:03:08,560
Massimino even know him as estro mike on

82
00:03:13,290 --> 00:03:10,600
twitter he's actually been to Hubble

83
00:03:14,730 --> 00:03:13,300
touched it done things to it and then

84
00:03:16,170 --> 00:03:14,740
came back down again and he's going to

85
00:03:18,630 --> 00:03:16,180
tell us about some of his experiences

86
00:03:20,790 --> 00:03:18,640
there as well but let me go back so Eric

87
00:03:23,070 --> 00:03:20,800
let me start with you tell us a little

88
00:03:24,990 --> 00:03:23,080
bit give us a bird's-eye view of what

89
00:03:26,940 --> 00:03:25,000
the exhibit is as well as tell us a

90
00:03:28,740 --> 00:03:26,950
little bit about the intrepid museum so

91
00:03:30,300 --> 00:03:28,750
oh well the intrepid is just like the

92
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:30,310
greatest place in the world of work I

93
00:03:34,260 --> 00:03:31,690
mean this is an aircraft carrier that

94
00:03:36,180 --> 00:03:34,270
served through World War two the space

95
00:03:37,650 --> 00:03:36,190
race we recovered us got carpenters

96
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:37,660
mission and also recovered the first

97
00:03:42,030 --> 00:03:39,730
Gemini mission with the young and

98
00:03:44,850 --> 00:03:42,040
gruesome so a lot of space history here

99
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:44,860
already and then we got enterprise so we

100
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:46,810
were always looking for space things to

101
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:49,570
do and every summer we do with space and

102
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:51,130
science fest and we bring the astronauts

103
00:03:55,170 --> 00:03:53,650
out here as many as NASA let us have and

104
00:03:56,699 --> 00:03:55,180
I think it was hit up a mic here a

105
00:03:58,920 --> 00:03:56,709
couple of years ago and he put a little

106
00:04:01,020 --> 00:03:58,930
bug in our ear about that even number

107
00:04:02,250 --> 00:04:01,030
that 25 coming up for hobbles so we

108
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:02,260
really started thinking hard about that

109
00:04:07,590 --> 00:04:06,130
and that just kind of kicked it off so

110
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:07,600
Scott showing us a sort of an overview

111
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:10,690
of what the exhibit looks like at the at

112
00:04:13,949 --> 00:04:12,250
the intrepid my keg why don't you tell

113
00:04:16,830 --> 00:04:13,959
us a little bit about how did you get

114
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:16,840
involved what's your role here well Tony

115
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:20,650
I've been really lucky to get a chance

116
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:24,490
to contribute to this I am now i look at

117
00:04:29,220 --> 00:04:25,690
the astronaut program

118
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:29,230
and NASA back in July and now teaching

119
00:04:33,810 --> 00:04:31,570
at Columbia my faculty member there and

120
00:04:36,150 --> 00:04:33,820
i'm also an advisor here at the intrepid

121
00:04:37,380 --> 00:04:36,160
museum so i'm in new york city because

122
00:04:40,410 --> 00:04:37,390
were the opportunity do a lot of cool

123
00:04:44,850 --> 00:04:40,420
things including participate in this in

124
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:44,860
this exhibit so as my job as advisor I

125
00:04:50,250 --> 00:04:46,650
got to work with Eric and the team here

126
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:50,260
in trying to determine what we would

127
00:04:56,220 --> 00:04:52,210
like to have to show people here at the

128
00:05:00,330 --> 00:04:56,230
Museum so what artifacts would be would

129
00:05:03,450 --> 00:05:00,340
be interesting some of the tools that we

130
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:03,460
use in orbit or actually on display it's

131
00:05:07,310 --> 00:05:05,170
very personal a couple of our flown

132
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:07,320
items I flew a home plate in space on

133
00:05:13,350 --> 00:05:11,530
sts-125 from shea stadium for from New

134
00:05:15,150 --> 00:05:13,360
York City for the Mets we have that home

135
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:15,160
plate here we have a basketball that was

136
00:05:20,910 --> 00:05:17,530
used by Edwin Hubble the actual hubble

137
00:05:22,170 --> 00:05:20,920
hubble guy Hubble the dude was was from

138
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:22,180
the University of Chicago and played

139
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:23,410
basketball there wasn't just an

140
00:05:27,630 --> 00:05:24,970
astronomer we have a basketball that

141
00:05:29,580 --> 00:05:27,640
that that he played played with in a

142
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:29,590
game and he actually beat I think you'd

143
00:05:33,470 --> 00:05:31,570
betta Indiana was a very low-scoring

144
00:05:35,370 --> 00:05:33,480
game it was back on the old days

145
00:05:36,780 --> 00:05:35,380
basketballs and a bouncing ball back

146
00:05:39,750 --> 00:05:36,790
then but we have that kind of fun stuff

147
00:05:42,060 --> 00:05:39,760
but we also have some history about the

148
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:42,070
Hubble itself it didn't work as well as

149
00:05:44,790 --> 00:05:43,570
they would have liked there was problems

150
00:05:46,620 --> 00:05:44,800
with the optics and there's a story

151
00:05:48,690 --> 00:05:46,630
there how it was fixed and how the

152
00:05:52,110 --> 00:05:48,700
instruments work my favorite part of the

153
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:52,120
exhibit is and inside in the back of the

154
00:05:56,310 --> 00:05:54,970
exhibit we have I say incitement whole

155
00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:56,320
things inside we got to go into the

156
00:06:00,480 --> 00:05:57,610
exhibit and go to the back there's a

157
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:00,490
special video room with footage from our

158
00:06:03,780 --> 00:06:01,810
training in the neutral buoyancy

159
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:03,790
laboratory which is our big pool that we

160
00:06:08,610 --> 00:06:06,130
practice our space walks in and it

161
00:06:10,860 --> 00:06:08,620
exactly it's not a big screen it's got

162
00:06:13,260 --> 00:06:10,870
the sounds behind it that we had in a

163
00:06:14,790 --> 00:06:13,270
pool and it reminds me so much of what

164
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:14,800
those training days were like all those

165
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:17,890
days that we spent over training over in

166
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:19,450
the in the big pool at the neutral

167
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:21,490
buoyancy laboratory so it's me it's very

168
00:06:25,050 --> 00:06:23,650
very personal to chose the stuff we use

169
00:06:27,390 --> 00:06:25,060
and it tells the story of the telescope

170
00:06:30,510 --> 00:06:27,400
but also of the crews and the science

171
00:06:33,030 --> 00:06:30,520
and it's I well you know I contributed

172
00:06:34,860 --> 00:06:33,040
through its own bias but I do I feel

173
00:06:36,270 --> 00:06:34,870
great yeah I want to go I want to get

174
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:36,280
back to a lot of your experiences on the

175
00:06:38,500 --> 00:06:37,450
shuttle and working there specifically

176
00:06:39,850 --> 00:06:38,510
working on the Hubble

177
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:39,860
I'm gonna get my do the exhibit itself a

178
00:06:44,050 --> 00:06:41,930
little bit with Eric when did it open

179
00:06:45,580 --> 00:06:44,060
when did it start and for how long will

180
00:06:47,620 --> 00:06:45,590
it be available for the public to come

181
00:06:49,750 --> 00:06:47,630
look at well we just opened it this

182
00:06:51,190 --> 00:06:49,760
october october twenty third and we're

183
00:06:53,980 --> 00:06:51,200
going to keep it over for almost 11

184
00:06:56,590 --> 00:06:53,990
months until mid-september of 2015 so

185
00:06:58,810 --> 00:06:56,600
we'll be open and right through the

186
00:07:02,800 --> 00:06:58,820
anniversary of the launch anniversary in

187
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:02,810
april so goes along with the exhibit are

188
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:04,490
a lot of programming we've already had a

189
00:07:08,830 --> 00:07:06,050
couple programs and these are evening

190
00:07:11,620 --> 00:07:08,840
programs but some other programs coming

191
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:11,630
up just kind of a concept we like to do

192
00:07:15,970 --> 00:07:14,090
kari and her team have all these

193
00:07:18,430 --> 00:07:15,980
educational programs for the kids or in

194
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:18,440
a day but the adult programming at night

195
00:07:22,660 --> 00:07:20,090
or the family programming at night is

196
00:07:24,850 --> 00:07:22,670
about big part of it so as i mentioned

197
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:24,860
at the top of the of the Hangout the

198
00:07:29,830 --> 00:07:27,530
Hubble has been up for 25 years and it's

199
00:07:32,050 --> 00:07:29,840
been circling over our heads not looking

200
00:07:34,030 --> 00:07:32,060
down at us but looking up at the outer

201
00:07:36,550 --> 00:07:34,040
reaches of the solar system and our

202
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:36,560
galaxy and the universe and I think it

203
00:07:42,220 --> 00:07:39,170
is more than any other scientific

204
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:42,230
instrument has given us with its

205
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:44,090
glimpses of the heavens it's given us

206
00:07:49,260 --> 00:07:47,810
more a perspective on our place in the

207
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:49,270
universe than I think any other

208
00:07:52,660 --> 00:07:51,290
telescope has ever done and I've often

209
00:07:54,820 --> 00:07:52,670
said and I don't think I'm overstating

210
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:54,830
and when I say this is that the Hubble

211
00:07:58,570 --> 00:07:56,570
Space Telescope in my opinion is the

212
00:08:00,880 --> 00:07:58,580
most single most important instrument

213
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:00,890
ever built and because of that because

214
00:08:05,470 --> 00:08:03,050
of its what it has shown us and taught

215
00:08:08,710 --> 00:08:05,480
us about the universe so Jerry when you

216
00:08:11,020 --> 00:08:08,720
are designing some of the education

217
00:08:14,140 --> 00:08:11,030
programs that go along with the exhibit

218
00:08:15,730 --> 00:08:14,150
and are you seeing any of that sense of

219
00:08:18,310 --> 00:08:15,740
wonder among the students you're

220
00:08:21,310 --> 00:08:18,320
teaching with this is it is the is the

221
00:08:22,780 --> 00:08:21,320
exhibit conveying that sort of sense of

222
00:08:25,330 --> 00:08:22,790
wonder that Hubble has always been

223
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:25,340
famous for I think absolutely especially

224
00:08:30,670 --> 00:08:27,410
for the younger kids who have grown up

225
00:08:32,290 --> 00:08:30,680
with a lot of these images and and they

226
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:32,300
recognize them and they might see them

227
00:08:37,900 --> 00:08:34,370
in you know popular culture and then to

228
00:08:40,450 --> 00:08:37,910
see these huge images underneath the

229
00:08:43,030 --> 00:08:40,460
Space Shuttle that we have it really

230
00:08:45,940 --> 00:08:43,040
does bring them to the science and

231
00:08:48,100 --> 00:08:45,950
technology that has made it possible

232
00:08:51,070 --> 00:08:48,110
they finally understand why it's

233
00:08:52,490 --> 00:08:51,080
important to have the telescope there up

234
00:08:54,500 --> 00:08:52,500
above the Earth's atmosphere

235
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:54,510
here and what it can do it really is

236
00:08:58,400 --> 00:08:57,090
amazing for them so tell us a little

237
00:09:00,410 --> 00:08:58,410
about some of the programs you've

238
00:09:02,780 --> 00:09:00,420
designed what are what specifically are

239
00:09:04,910 --> 00:09:02,790
you teaching kids and at jet what

240
00:09:07,550 --> 00:09:04,920
general age range are you targeting um

241
00:09:10,820 --> 00:09:07,560
we're actually we've been trying to

242
00:09:13,790 --> 00:09:10,830
target k through 12 hosts the whole

243
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:13,800
Schmeer I mean the K through the K

244
00:09:18,890 --> 00:09:15,330
through tues I admit are a little

245
00:09:21,260 --> 00:09:18,900
difficult but the exhibit is designed so

246
00:09:23,870 --> 00:09:21,270
well around stem science technology

247
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:23,880
engineering math that you can really

248
00:09:29,210 --> 00:09:26,490
target and focus the different age

249
00:09:30,590 --> 00:09:29,220
groups so for the little ones we

250
00:09:33,710 --> 00:09:30,600
actually lost you're invested in a

251
00:09:35,390 --> 00:09:33,720
portable planetarium um so was it a star

252
00:09:38,150 --> 00:09:35,400
lab I used to have one of them ah it is

253
00:09:39,470 --> 00:09:38,160
it did you tell us oh okay they've got

254
00:09:41,030 --> 00:09:39,480
the UH they've grown a lot i love those

255
00:09:45,290 --> 00:09:41,040
things those those those inflatable

256
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:45,300
things you walk away yeah yes oh you

257
00:09:51,020 --> 00:09:47,370
know for K through 2 kids who've never

258
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:51,030
been in one of those we show them images

259
00:09:56,900 --> 00:09:53,250
that are taken with Hubble inside the

260
00:09:59,090 --> 00:09:56,910
planetarium specifically at and we look

261
00:10:02,720 --> 00:09:59,100
at constellations and specifically stars

262
00:10:03,980 --> 00:10:02,730
in Orion and Ursa Major and then we take

263
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:03,990
them out of the planetarium and they get

264
00:10:09,590 --> 00:10:06,330
to create their own star story so you

265
00:10:10,970 --> 00:10:09,600
know we bring it down to a level for the

266
00:10:12,950 --> 00:10:10,980
caves or tues that are it's really

267
00:10:16,850 --> 00:10:12,960
accessible and then we show them where

268
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:16,860
those pictures came from and for the the

269
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:18,210
upper grades we talk about the

270
00:10:23,270 --> 00:10:20,850
spectrometers we look at um discreet

271
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:23,280
gases through fractal lenses it's

272
00:10:26,810 --> 00:10:25,170
actually really fun and then we talk

273
00:10:28,460 --> 00:10:26,820
about galaxy shapes the shapes of

274
00:10:31,970 --> 00:10:28,470
different galaxies and we actually do an

275
00:10:33,890 --> 00:10:31,980
art project so we bring together the

276
00:10:36,140 --> 00:10:33,900
science and then the art because these

277
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:36,150
really are beautiful photographs when

278
00:10:41,420 --> 00:10:38,370
you get right down to it so it's been a

279
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:41,430
lot of fun and it certainly has been a

280
00:10:46,130 --> 00:10:44,010
way to get our education kind of

281
00:10:50,870 --> 00:10:46,140
creative juices flowing it's been really

282
00:10:51,950 --> 00:10:50,880
wonderful so imma do you have to are all

283
00:10:54,590 --> 00:10:51,960
of your activities centered around

284
00:10:56,420 --> 00:10:54,600
things at the museum itself or let's say

285
00:10:57,770 --> 00:10:56,430
I'm a teacher can I contact you and

286
00:10:59,480 --> 00:10:57,780
would you have some activities maybe I

287
00:11:01,190 --> 00:10:59,490
can't go to the museum but maybe do you

288
00:11:04,310 --> 00:11:01,200
have some things maybe I could do in my

289
00:11:06,140 --> 00:11:04,320
classroom absolutely I mean we can

290
00:11:09,050 --> 00:11:06,150
design certain programs 40

291
00:11:12,680 --> 00:11:09,060
we have the capabilities obviously to

292
00:11:13,730 --> 00:11:12,690
beam into classrooms for certain and

293
00:11:16,780 --> 00:11:13,740
then there are a lot of other resources

294
00:11:22,310 --> 00:11:16,790
that were happy to connect people with

295
00:11:23,810 --> 00:11:22,320
so the so the one because it's

296
00:11:25,460 --> 00:11:23,820
underneath the enterprise and the

297
00:11:27,980 --> 00:11:25,470
enterprise for those who don't know the

298
00:11:30,380 --> 00:11:27,990
Space Shuttle enterprise is was not an

299
00:11:32,450 --> 00:11:30,390
actual working fully working space

300
00:11:34,850 --> 00:11:32,460
station or space straddle it was one of

301
00:11:36,560 --> 00:11:34,860
those that they used to test fly to make

302
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:36,570
sure they could land it I remember we

303
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:39,290
was was a John Young to float the fluid

304
00:11:44,180 --> 00:11:42,810
Eric that that they glided the the

305
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:44,190
enterprise down in its first flight

306
00:11:48,110 --> 00:11:46,530
actually Fred Hayes on the first fret Oh

307
00:11:50,300 --> 00:11:48,120
was Fred hey sorry thank you for reading

308
00:11:52,340 --> 00:11:50,310
right Chad when young was the first

309
00:11:53,870 --> 00:11:52,350
commander of the space shuttle oh that's

310
00:11:57,260 --> 00:11:53,880
right that's what you think so the real

311
00:11:58,910 --> 00:11:57,270
first if sts-1 yes yes when John Young

312
00:12:00,470 --> 00:11:58,920
was the commander that's right and

313
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:00,480
Robert Robert Crippen went with him so

314
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:02,970
yeah yeah okay I right I got confused so

315
00:12:06,050 --> 00:12:04,770
but this this didn't have rocket engines

316
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:06,060
on it was just a sort of a

317
00:12:10,940 --> 00:12:08,490
proof-of-concept can we glide and land

318
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:10,950
this thing right Eric it was but it was

319
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:13,410
built as a spaceship structurally it was

320
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:16,770
all there it was okay of course yeah

321
00:12:21,230 --> 00:12:19,890
we've had the designation ov 101 the 100

322
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:21,240
series was supposed to be the orbital

323
00:12:27,110 --> 00:12:24,330
vehicles though it was built to be

324
00:12:29,060 --> 00:12:27,120
eventually converted into an orbital

325
00:12:30,950 --> 00:12:29,070
vehicle you know that has to change

326
00:12:32,300 --> 00:12:30,960
their mind later on because i think the

327
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:32,310
structure was a little heavy was going

328
00:12:37,670 --> 00:12:35,250
to be expensive to take the photons off

329
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:37,680
put real tiles on it and the engines and

330
00:12:43,070 --> 00:12:41,010
all the other systems and just uh guess

331
00:12:45,050 --> 00:12:43,080
they were moving forward each kenichi

332
00:12:47,150 --> 00:12:45,060
vehicle was lighter in weight as they

333
00:12:48,890 --> 00:12:47,160
were building them to sew and which is

334
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:48,900
really important for hauling pay load up

335
00:12:52,550 --> 00:12:50,850
was that because materials just got

336
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:52,560
better or they got smarter at building

337
00:12:55,700 --> 00:12:54,330
space shuttles in offer both things I've

338
00:12:58,790 --> 00:12:55,710
talked to engineer and I heard it's been

339
00:13:01,010 --> 00:12:58,800
materials and just structurally it's

340
00:13:03,830 --> 00:13:01,020
heavy when did you get it reminded

341
00:13:07,550 --> 00:13:03,840
remind me when you got enterprise two

342
00:13:12,560 --> 00:13:07,560
thousand eleven no twelve she tells I'm

343
00:13:14,870 --> 00:13:12,570
sorry oh yeah we were don't get so mad

344
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:14,880
when I do that to her I promise by yeah

345
00:13:17,290 --> 00:13:16,770
I know I'm gonna work yeah I'm putting

346
00:13:22,150 --> 00:13:17,300
her on

347
00:13:24,340 --> 00:13:22,160
rewarded and in my spring 2011 okay fine

348
00:13:26,710 --> 00:13:24,350
that's good enough we were still flying

349
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:26,720
real space shuttles game at me Thank You

350
00:13:30,250 --> 00:13:28,490
those are l12 but we were still flying

351
00:13:32,350 --> 00:13:30,260
to space shells in space in two thousand

352
00:13:35,560 --> 00:13:32,360
right so a year later they went through

353
00:13:37,509 --> 00:13:35,570
the museum's yeah 2012 so did so Jerry

354
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:37,519
you you got you give these students sort

355
00:13:42,100 --> 00:13:40,010
of a sense of just you know having the

356
00:13:43,900 --> 00:13:42,110
enterprise there helps you give them a

357
00:13:46,780 --> 00:13:43,910
sense of just how big Hubble was right

358
00:13:48,639 --> 00:13:46,790
yeah it is I mean and it's such right

359
00:13:50,470 --> 00:13:48,649
now it's such a fantastic connection to

360
00:13:52,420 --> 00:13:50,480
make because if you I don't know if

361
00:13:54,340 --> 00:13:52,430
we've got the shot of the exhibit again

362
00:13:56,650 --> 00:13:54,350
the exhibit it's set up like we said

363
00:13:59,139 --> 00:13:56,660
right underneath the shuttle so you can

364
00:14:01,509 --> 00:13:59,149
stand there with your group look up at

365
00:14:03,730 --> 00:14:01,519
the payload area of the shuttle and say

366
00:14:06,130 --> 00:14:03,740
it was designed to fit in that pelo

367
00:14:07,630 --> 00:14:06,140
because we have a decent sized model of

368
00:14:09,670 --> 00:14:07,640
it right now but for a lot of kids who

369
00:14:12,670 --> 00:14:09,680
don't understand scale and how large

370
00:14:14,560 --> 00:14:12,680
actually you know things are to show

371
00:14:16,990 --> 00:14:14,570
them yeah I fit inside that payload it's

372
00:14:19,210 --> 00:14:17,000
about the same size as a large school

373
00:14:20,980 --> 00:14:19,220
bus it's really easy to make those real

374
00:14:23,710 --> 00:14:20,990
life connections which is what we try to

375
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:23,720
do with all our programming here on the

376
00:14:28,090 --> 00:14:26,570
ship yeah I vogue everybody always says

377
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:28,100
that the Hubble Space Telescope is the

378
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:30,050
size of a school bus and while that you

379
00:14:33,340 --> 00:14:31,490
know you say that and you can imagine a

380
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:33,350
school bus when you really actually see

381
00:14:38,740 --> 00:14:37,010
it it's pretty darn big so Mike you went

382
00:14:41,290 --> 00:14:38,750
up and you you went up and actually

383
00:14:43,030 --> 00:14:41,300
touch this thing how were you impressed

384
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:43,040
by how large it was what were some of

385
00:14:47,590 --> 00:14:44,690
your first thoughts for going up there

386
00:14:49,449 --> 00:14:47,600
yeah we yeah so that when you when you

387
00:14:51,610 --> 00:14:49,459
Ronnie I never saw the telescope before

388
00:14:55,030 --> 00:14:51,620
was launched I was launched in 1990 I

389
00:14:58,050 --> 00:14:55,040
became an astronaut 96 and started

390
00:15:00,610 --> 00:14:58,060
training for the flight more or less and

391
00:15:04,389 --> 00:15:00,620
in two thousand to fly my first flight

392
00:15:07,329 --> 00:15:04,399
to flood in 2002 and so when you running

393
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:07,339
with Hubble it starts out and you wake

394
00:15:11,079 --> 00:15:09,050
up more or less on the third day your

395
00:15:13,150 --> 00:15:11,089
third space space flight a flight day

396
00:15:15,639 --> 00:15:13,160
three is when we did our rendezvous

397
00:15:17,650 --> 00:15:15,649
vision so you see it on the hall right

398
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:17,660
away at now and say the rise but out

399
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:19,970
there in space somewhere as it looks

400
00:15:23,740 --> 00:15:22,130
like a star that keeps getting brighter

401
00:15:26,710 --> 00:15:23,750
and brighter as you get close to it as

402
00:15:28,210 --> 00:15:26,720
hours go by and then it starts to take

403
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:28,220
the shape of a telescope as you get

404
00:15:39,940 --> 00:15:37,329
oops uh-oh you got accidentally muted

405
00:15:45,519 --> 00:15:39,950
Mike can you a mute yourself my weekend

406
00:15:47,259 --> 00:15:45,529
are you okay right so um so I don't know

407
00:15:49,389 --> 00:15:47,269
where you were but as a I was saying how

408
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:49,399
the trouble starts out as a star yeah

409
00:15:54,310 --> 00:15:52,490
yeah it's bigger and bigger and in as

410
00:15:55,990 --> 00:15:54,320
you get close to it its arse you start

411
00:15:57,310 --> 00:15:56,000
seeing like a little telescope and it

412
00:15:59,290 --> 00:15:57,320
gets bigger and bigger and bigger and

413
00:16:01,030 --> 00:15:59,300
then it's like you recognize this Hubble

414
00:16:02,980 --> 00:16:01,040
and you can't close to an crap would

415
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:02,990
pull in a pail of day but it's it's

416
00:16:07,630 --> 00:16:04,730
really big I mean it's nowhere near as

417
00:16:09,370 --> 00:16:07,640
big as a space station but it's pretty

418
00:16:12,220 --> 00:16:09,380
impressive when you when you come up and

419
00:16:14,259 --> 00:16:12,230
see this thing after your gift in space

420
00:16:16,060 --> 00:16:14,269
for a few days and then you hit the mark

421
00:16:18,430 --> 00:16:16,070
and you're right there next to it well

422
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:18,440
so because of its size and the way you

423
00:16:21,850 --> 00:16:19,850
have to approach it with the space

424
00:16:23,500 --> 00:16:21,860
shuttle is there any worry that if

425
00:16:25,210 --> 00:16:23,510
you're not getting it just something I

426
00:16:26,860 --> 00:16:25,220
mean I don't know exactly how you grab

427
00:16:29,199 --> 00:16:26,870
on to it but was there is any worry

428
00:16:31,420 --> 00:16:29,209
about you know going at it too quickly

429
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:31,430
or maybe spinning it by accident maybe

430
00:16:35,740 --> 00:16:33,170
is there any danger is is it massive

431
00:16:37,780 --> 00:16:35,750
enough to sort of get there tells the

432
00:16:39,790 --> 00:16:37,790
telescope and the space station in kind

433
00:16:41,530 --> 00:16:39,800
of a role or some kind of the space show

434
00:16:43,030 --> 00:16:41,540
are you space shuttle space shuttle

435
00:16:46,030 --> 00:16:43,040
forgive me yeah you could all about you

436
00:16:50,050 --> 00:16:46,040
can do all kinds of bad things I'm

437
00:16:53,019 --> 00:16:50,060
really concerned about hitting it you go

438
00:16:55,540 --> 00:16:53,029
ahead I'm fast you're going 17,500 miles

439
00:16:57,730 --> 00:16:55,550
an hour and so is the telescope so

440
00:16:59,860 --> 00:16:57,740
you're flying in formation at 17,500

441
00:17:02,769 --> 00:16:59,870
miles an hour which is really fast and

442
00:17:05,350 --> 00:17:02,779
in the commander we all work together

443
00:17:07,360 --> 00:17:05,360
but it's primarily to commander in my

444
00:17:09,579 --> 00:17:07,370
flight Scott Altman who flies the

445
00:17:12,010 --> 00:17:09,589
shuttle manually up to within a couple

446
00:17:14,020 --> 00:17:12,020
inches of the telescope and the way we

447
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:14,030
grabbed it is with the robot on there's

448
00:17:17,290 --> 00:17:15,890
to grapple fixtures on Hubble the

449
00:17:21,100 --> 00:17:17,300
primary one is when we've always used

450
00:17:22,630 --> 00:17:21,110
and he gets it such that the target of

451
00:17:24,909 --> 00:17:22,640
that grapple fixture that we're going to

452
00:17:27,850 --> 00:17:24,919
grab with the robot arm is centered in

453
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:27,860
the camera of the of the of the arm of

454
00:17:33,490 --> 00:17:31,730
the manipulator arm so that the robot

455
00:17:35,830 --> 00:17:33,500
operate their own operator just has to

456
00:17:37,210 --> 00:17:35,840
kind of push in and go get the telescope

457
00:17:39,700 --> 00:17:37,220
but its orbital mechanics and rates

458
00:17:41,340 --> 00:17:39,710
going on so if you wait long enough with

459
00:17:43,810 --> 00:17:41,350
more than just a few seconds really

460
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:43,820
you'll start seeing mismatch he's trying

461
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:44,450
to match

462
00:17:50,019 --> 00:17:46,970
perfectly the attitude of the grapple

463
00:17:52,330 --> 00:17:50,029
fixture with the position of the robot

464
00:17:54,399 --> 00:17:52,340
arm and then turn it over to the the arm

465
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:54,409
operator to go in and grapple the

466
00:17:57,820 --> 00:17:56,090
telescope but it you've got to act

467
00:17:59,620 --> 00:17:57,830
pretty quickly you also don't want to

468
00:18:03,279 --> 00:17:59,630
bang it if you knock it it's a free

469
00:18:04,750 --> 00:18:03,289
flyer that's bad get off spinning yeah I

470
00:18:07,269 --> 00:18:04,760
mean all kinds of bad things can happen

471
00:18:11,350 --> 00:18:07,279
so no pressure nice put a lot of

472
00:18:14,529 --> 00:18:11,360
pressure in practice a lot in order to

473
00:18:16,419 --> 00:18:14,539
do that I am effort but but uh yeah

474
00:18:18,850 --> 00:18:16,429
megan macarthur on my second flight you

475
00:18:20,950 --> 00:18:18,860
is the first rookie to ever be entrusted

476
00:18:23,409 --> 00:18:20,960
with with the job of the way the

477
00:18:25,750 --> 00:18:23,419
telescope does you good night that's why

478
00:18:27,340 --> 00:18:25,760
that's probably bad day I will say on

479
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:27,350
behalf of the mission and all the people

480
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:29,690
at Space Telescope we sit in the

481
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:32,210
auditorium and in front of our TVs and

482
00:18:38,529 --> 00:18:34,970
computers and we hold our breaths that

483
00:18:40,450 --> 00:18:38,539
whole procedure is like oh my gosh

484
00:18:43,870 --> 00:18:40,460
anyway we're with you we're with you

485
00:18:45,310 --> 00:18:43,880
thank you that was a big mission to you

486
00:18:47,500 --> 00:18:45,320
did a lot of stuff to this to the

487
00:18:50,289 --> 00:18:47,510
telescope I mean one of the reasons that

488
00:18:53,259 --> 00:18:50,299
Hubble has been up there for 25 years

489
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:53,269
able to do what it does is because of

490
00:18:58,509 --> 00:18:55,730
this design capability of going up there

491
00:19:00,250 --> 00:18:58,519
grabbing on to it and opening up hatches

492
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:00,260
and pulling things out and pulling and

493
00:19:04,090 --> 00:19:02,090
putting other things in and you guys

494
00:19:06,039 --> 00:19:04,100
basically made an almost an entirely too

495
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:06,049
new telescope out there didn't you yeah

496
00:19:09,399 --> 00:19:07,730
every one of the science instruments so

497
00:19:11,649 --> 00:19:09,409
there was five servicing missions and

498
00:19:13,330 --> 00:19:11,659
over the course of the of the servicing

499
00:19:16,180 --> 00:19:13,340
missions each scientific instrument was

500
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:16,190
replaced new batteries we put on my left

501
00:19:19,570 --> 00:19:17,330
my second floor you put in new batteries

502
00:19:21,009 --> 00:19:19,580
the solar rays will replace twice the

503
00:19:23,289 --> 00:19:21,019
wide field camera itself one of the

504
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:23,299
sites of engagements is on a virgin

505
00:19:28,090 --> 00:19:26,090
three of that the right gyroscopes have

506
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:28,100
been replaced three times we just put

507
00:19:32,049 --> 00:19:29,450
those in the last time the most of the

508
00:19:35,289 --> 00:19:32,059
newest instead of a new power control

509
00:19:37,269 --> 00:19:35,299
unit new computer yeah so you can

510
00:19:39,580 --> 00:19:37,279
replace stuff the parts that were out so

511
00:19:41,590 --> 00:19:39,590
you replace those and every time you

512
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:41,600
replace an instrument or even though the

513
00:19:46,539 --> 00:19:43,570
component parts liking the gyroscopes

514
00:19:49,060 --> 00:19:46,549
the use the latest technology so as

515
00:19:51,549 --> 00:19:49,070
technology advanced you were able to put

516
00:19:53,590 --> 00:19:51,559
the new stuff in inside the telescope so

517
00:19:56,110 --> 00:19:53,600
and on my second mission it wasn't just

518
00:19:58,130 --> 00:19:56,120
replacing stuff it was fixing things we

519
00:20:00,710 --> 00:19:58,140
took two instruments that were that were

520
00:20:02,870 --> 00:20:00,720
broken and we show semesta the exhibit

521
00:20:04,910 --> 00:20:02,880
they had a power supply failure of the

522
00:20:07,370 --> 00:20:04,920
advanced camera for surveys and on a

523
00:20:08,900 --> 00:20:07,380
space telescope imaging spectrograph but

524
00:20:11,090 --> 00:20:08,910
we had to open those instruments up kind

525
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:11,100
of performed surgery on orbit that put

526
00:20:15,230 --> 00:20:13,770
new power supplies in yourself that was

527
00:20:18,290 --> 00:20:15,240
a little bit different because it wasn't

528
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:18,300
just removing in replace it was going

529
00:20:22,700 --> 00:20:20,250
and get inside of the instrument it was

530
00:20:25,630 --> 00:20:22,710
never intended to be worked on and take

531
00:20:28,970 --> 00:20:25,640
stuff out and put new Stephanie so um

532
00:20:32,150 --> 00:20:28,980
but but the the telescope did not leave

533
00:20:34,700 --> 00:20:32,160
unscathed did it Mike hey you kind of

534
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:34,710
broke it I'm here yeah we did yeah so

535
00:20:38,090 --> 00:20:36,570
gotta pee I really bringing the

536
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:38,100
telescope's all right I have pulled the

537
00:20:42,550 --> 00:20:40,290
handle you brought Hubble Space

538
00:20:45,290 --> 00:20:42,560
Telescope you're the man who broke it

539
00:20:47,150 --> 00:20:45,300
all right sure so I we gonna fool the

540
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:47,160
internal I pulled a handrail off of an

541
00:20:51,590 --> 00:20:49,290
instrument yep so what's the story there

542
00:20:53,450 --> 00:20:51,600
you had to it just you will turn well

543
00:20:55,910 --> 00:20:53,460
during one of the during one of the

544
00:20:58,580 --> 00:20:55,920
repairs for the space telescope imaging

545
00:21:00,290 --> 00:20:58,590
spectrograph we had to remove a handrail

546
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:00,300
and where they get to the access panel

547
00:21:07,010 --> 00:21:03,450
to remove that panel had that panel

548
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:07,020
itself had a hundred and i had a hundred

549
00:21:11,630 --> 00:21:09,570
and thirteen screws there were four

550
00:21:13,190 --> 00:21:11,640
screws on the handrail three of the

551
00:21:14,990 --> 00:21:13,200
screws came off the handrail but one was

552
00:21:17,300 --> 00:21:15,000
when it come off I kinda get the handle

553
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:17,310
out of a way to get to the access panel

554
00:21:21,260 --> 00:21:19,170
to get access to the access panel and

555
00:21:22,670 --> 00:21:21,270
after about an hour and a half the

556
00:21:24,830 --> 00:21:22,680
clever idea came to see better just

557
00:21:27,770 --> 00:21:24,840
ripped the handrail off we were supposed

558
00:21:29,270 --> 00:21:27,780
to remove it with by taking out all four

559
00:21:31,370 --> 00:21:29,280
screws were only three came out so I had

560
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:31,380
to rip the thing off so in truth yeah I

561
00:21:36,530 --> 00:21:33,090
did rip it off but it was had come off

562
00:21:38,350 --> 00:21:36,540
anyone okay Hague so I wish there's

563
00:21:40,820 --> 00:21:38,360
actually lane if you can make that

564
00:21:43,430 --> 00:21:40,830
thumbnail big there's the actual handle

565
00:21:46,820 --> 00:21:43,440
that at the exhibit exhibit has an angle

566
00:21:48,020 --> 00:21:46,830
so every piece is that's right glass of

567
00:21:51,410 --> 00:21:48,030
the exhibit and that's still on the

568
00:21:53,750 --> 00:21:51,420
telescope great thing was that after

569
00:21:56,180 --> 00:21:53,760
that the project actually published the

570
00:21:59,330 --> 00:21:56,190
shuttle gyros when Mike did that and it

571
00:22:05,740 --> 00:21:59,340
shows that the gyros won't like this the

572
00:22:08,740 --> 00:22:05,750
trace of it wow they're like oh wow

573
00:22:10,390 --> 00:22:08,750
come off so this is one of the things

574
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:10,400
you can see exhibit if you guys go to

575
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:12,650
the exhibit itself Eric maybe you could

576
00:22:15,700 --> 00:22:13,850
describe a little bit of some of the

577
00:22:17,500 --> 00:22:15,710
things and if Kimberly you can pan

578
00:22:18,970 --> 00:22:17,510
around a little bit maybe you could just

579
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:18,980
kind of just show us a little bit of

580
00:22:23,530 --> 00:22:20,930
overview of what's what's going on there

581
00:22:27,940 --> 00:22:23,540
what are we looking at Kimberly don't

582
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:27,950
make a sick slowly so the exhibit if you

583
00:22:32,050 --> 00:22:29,930
look at my title aviation curator i'm

584
00:22:33,730 --> 00:22:32,060
not really a space guy though I'm an

585
00:22:35,140 --> 00:22:33,740
enthusiast but it was fun to sit down

586
00:22:37,090 --> 00:22:35,150
with Mike and then start picking his

587
00:22:40,710 --> 00:22:37,100
brain to see what a clean piece of paper

588
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:40,720
where this can go and I'm very much into

589
00:22:45,220 --> 00:22:43,010
here at the intrepid really were here

590
00:22:47,380 --> 00:22:45,230
for the human aspect of it you know

591
00:22:49,660 --> 00:22:47,390
there's people that flew these airplanes

592
00:22:51,820 --> 00:22:49,670
and sailed in the ship and and fix this

593
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:51,830
wonderful machine so we really wanted to

594
00:22:56,530 --> 00:22:53,690
make sure that we we touched the human

595
00:22:58,660 --> 00:22:56,540
component so am I completely understood

596
00:23:00,610 --> 00:22:58,670
that he was like i'll use these tools

597
00:23:02,770 --> 00:23:00,620
and here are people that helped us

598
00:23:05,170 --> 00:23:02,780
design these tool so he put me in

599
00:23:07,660 --> 00:23:05,180
contact with great people like Joe

600
00:23:11,470 --> 00:23:07,670
Maguire Justin Cassidy and then sepi

601
00:23:13,710 --> 00:23:11,480
down near Goddard uh and then uh from

602
00:23:16,660 --> 00:23:13,720
there he was like you need to talk to

603
00:23:18,460 --> 00:23:16,670
this person at Goddard and I gotta send

604
00:23:22,030 --> 00:23:18,470
a little shout-out to jinja letak who

605
00:23:24,970 --> 00:23:22,040
really he he made it all happen and we

606
00:23:27,550 --> 00:23:24,980
have you know like eight tools and the

607
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:27,560
handle the actual flown tools on display

608
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:30,650
uh Mike also suggested a few people at

609
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:32,570
the Space Telescope Science Institute so

610
00:23:36,670 --> 00:23:35,210
shoutouts the plan Frank and Zolt out

611
00:23:40,420 --> 00:23:36,680

wonderful people and it just was just

615
00:23:50,350 --> 00:23:47,780
this was a joy this exhibit was a joy to

616
00:23:52,270 --> 00:23:50,360
put together I can be showing some of

617
00:23:53,940 --> 00:23:52,280
the tools and if you look at waiver we

618
00:23:57,190 --> 00:23:53,950
put them in cases they're insecure

619
00:23:59,500 --> 00:23:57,200
acrylic cases you can see him from all

620
00:24:02,050 --> 00:23:59,510
sides they're beautiful those are big

621
00:24:03,850 --> 00:24:02,060
cases right and another shout out here

622
00:24:06,370 --> 00:24:03,860
tomorrow exhibit designer in-house here

623
00:24:07,930 --> 00:24:06,380
a crystal ants and for dis- wonderful

624
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:07,940
exhibit that's like it sits underneath

625
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:09,890
the shuttle if you when you're in these

626
00:24:15,669 --> 00:24:11,330
it and you look up you're going to see

627
00:24:17,950 --> 00:24:15,679
the belly of a enterprise so um and then

628
00:24:19,420 --> 00:24:17,960
there's all the images and so kimberly's

629
00:24:21,250 --> 00:24:19,430
give us a nice little walk around

630
00:24:23,170 --> 00:24:21,260
here just over there to the right is a

631
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:23,180
Mission Control we're trying to think of

632
00:24:29,500 --> 00:24:26,450
artistic ways to to show a lot of

633
00:24:32,770 --> 00:24:29,510
content we find that a lot of visitors

634
00:24:34,660 --> 00:24:32,780
don't have time to read you know big

635
00:24:38,140 --> 00:24:34,670
text panels kind of scare them away with

636
00:24:43,750 --> 00:24:38,150
iron yeah all right some of us just have

637
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:43,760
a DD I never read so I don't think you

638
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:46,610
mentioned the exhibit is real no it's

639
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:47,810
wrapped around stems kind of a

640
00:24:50,980 --> 00:24:49,010
no-brainer when you're dealing with an

641
00:24:53,350 --> 00:24:50,990
instrument like the Hubble it the

642
00:24:55,510 --> 00:24:53,360
science technology engineering and math

643
00:24:57,220 --> 00:24:55,520
it's all there but also the artistic

644
00:25:01,690 --> 00:24:57,230
elements and Kimberly's gone perfectly

645
00:25:03,850 --> 00:25:01,700
into our NBL lab so this is what we call

646
00:25:05,770 --> 00:25:03,860
an immersive experience you'll get

647
00:25:08,890 --> 00:25:05,780
inside and see the water effects and

648
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:08,900
this was a whole lot of fun getting some

649
00:25:12,940 --> 00:25:11,570
film clips from Johnston and folks at

650
00:25:16,930 --> 00:25:12,950
jen's were very helpful there's some

651
00:25:21,210 --> 00:25:16,940
people just finish so do you have not

652
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:21,220
signed disclaimers there is a very large

653
00:25:25,660 --> 00:25:23,930
curved screen in this room and the water

654
00:25:27,310 --> 00:25:25,670
effects which and make people feel like

655
00:25:28,900 --> 00:25:27,320
they're in water actually a woman tell

656
00:25:31,930 --> 00:25:28,910
me she was getting a little seasick

657
00:25:34,360 --> 00:25:31,940
under there but this is the sts-125 in

658
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:34,370
training and it was great to bring Mike

659
00:25:38,740 --> 00:25:36,890
in there the first time and he sat on

660
00:25:41,380 --> 00:25:38,750
the floor we had a conference call with

661
00:25:43,360 --> 00:25:41,390
a news outlet uh gonna be interview over

662
00:25:45,250 --> 00:25:43,370
the phone we gotta get going and he sat

663
00:25:46,570 --> 00:25:45,260
on the floor like a little kid and it's

664
00:25:49,120 --> 00:25:46,580
like oh this is that and there's any

665
00:25:51,460 --> 00:25:49,130
just uh it's a loop thing it runs for

666
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:51,470
several minutes but he really enjoyed it

667
00:25:56,110 --> 00:25:53,690
it brought him back home to training it

668
00:25:57,820 --> 00:25:56,120
so it was really good to see that and I

669
00:25:59,170 --> 00:25:57,830
go in there and i watch the visitors and

670
00:26:00,880 --> 00:25:59,180
the visitors they're just enthralled and

671
00:26:03,700 --> 00:26:00,890
they have that's really great balloon

672
00:26:07,380 --> 00:26:03,710
it's like this mercenary place it's my

673
00:26:09,460 --> 00:26:07,390
new happy place no as I might stop there

674
00:26:11,620 --> 00:26:09,470
so Mike let me ask you about the real

675
00:26:13,270 --> 00:26:11,630
tank is the real tank a good subs is it

676
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:13,280
anything at all like being in space I

677
00:26:19,930 --> 00:26:15,890
mean it is it a good substitute or is it

678
00:26:22,570 --> 00:26:19,940
really not that the same how good is it

679
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:22,580
prepare you working it is uh the best

680
00:26:28,390 --> 00:26:25,490
place to train to do a spacewalk it is

681
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:28,400
it is great you know if we prepare she

682
00:26:32,890 --> 00:26:30,410
did very well to get ready to do your

683
00:26:34,360 --> 00:26:32,900
job though the mock-up

684
00:26:37,300 --> 00:26:34,370
working with the suit the teamwork part

685
00:26:39,370 --> 00:26:37,310
of it you practice there and there's

686
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:39,380
other places we practice as well as

687
00:26:43,510 --> 00:26:40,850
other parts of the trainings not just

688
00:26:47,590 --> 00:26:43,520
the pool but the pool is is by far the

689
00:26:49,750 --> 00:26:47,600
most beneficial place to practice your

690
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:49,760
space walks so it prepares you very well

691
00:26:54,580 --> 00:26:51,050
it doesn't prepare you for the view

692
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:54,590
around you so I'll different by oh damn

693
00:26:58,180 --> 00:26:56,450
it lag it but the way that work your

694
00:26:59,850 --> 00:26:58,190
procedure the choreography working with

695
00:27:01,450 --> 00:26:59,860
your teammates working with the suit

696
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:01,460
understanding how you're going to do

697
00:27:05,740 --> 00:27:03,650
things it is fantastic it is the best

698
00:27:07,870 --> 00:27:05,750
the best ability is a best place to get

699
00:27:09,190 --> 00:27:07,880
ready I have several hours of this film

700
00:27:12,100 --> 00:27:09,200
and we had a boil it down to several

701
00:27:13,750 --> 00:27:12,110
minutes on the watch but I didn't make

702
00:27:16,300 --> 00:27:13,760
sure that the little clip of Mike with

703
00:27:19,990 --> 00:27:16,310
the handle yeah comes on it is anyway

704
00:27:21,610 --> 00:27:20,000
yeah some diesel it so Jerry do you have

705
00:27:24,850 --> 00:27:21,620
a lot of do you get a lot of school

706
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:24,860
groups coming through here uh yeah what

707
00:27:28,120 --> 00:27:26,090
would you give us an estimate how many

708
00:27:29,950 --> 00:27:28,130
do they come through the school day or

709
00:27:31,660 --> 00:27:29,960
how do they yeah they come through the

710
00:27:35,700 --> 00:27:31,670
school day um just to give you an idea

711
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:35,710
over the year we see about 800 discrete

712
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:38,930
classes in gallery programs and

713
00:27:42,100 --> 00:27:40,490
workshops so either they come for 60

714
00:27:45,550 --> 00:27:42,110
minutes or 90 minutes so that's over the

715
00:27:47,830 --> 00:27:45,560
school year we see 800 and we've noticed

716
00:27:50,230 --> 00:27:47,840
that since we you know have the

717
00:27:52,780 --> 00:27:50,240
Enterprise here now and we have the

718
00:27:54,250 --> 00:27:52,790
exhibit and we've really been pushing

719
00:27:56,500 --> 00:27:54,260
these programs because people don't

720
00:27:58,510 --> 00:27:56,510
often know that we have this great thing

721
00:28:00,160 --> 00:27:58,520
on the back of our aircraft carrier

722
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:00,170
that's not what they immediately think

723
00:28:03,850 --> 00:28:01,850
of when they think of the intrepid and

724
00:28:08,500 --> 00:28:03,860
but we actually have been getting quite

725
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:08,510
a few bookings for the space programs as

726
00:28:15,700 --> 00:28:10,610
we call it and it's just it's a really

727
00:28:18,190 --> 00:28:15,710
great way to tie in our intrepid history

728
00:28:19,750 --> 00:28:18,200
with the space race to you know real

729
00:28:22,150 --> 00:28:19,760
life science that's going on today it

730
00:28:24,430 --> 00:28:22,160
just makes it so much more enriching for

731
00:28:26,850 --> 00:28:24,440
the kids who come here um and one of the

732
00:28:29,170 --> 00:28:26,860
things we focus on particularly is

733
00:28:32,170 --> 00:28:29,180
problem solving and this is a great way

734
00:28:34,270 --> 00:28:32,180
to show all the different ways that you

735
00:28:36,460 --> 00:28:34,280
have to solve problems with things that

736
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:36,470
you know go up in space and stay there

737
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:38,690
for a long periods of time it's been

738
00:28:42,670 --> 00:28:41,570
really wonderful so yeah if you want to

739
00:28:45,100 --> 00:28:42,680
book a program and you're in the

740
00:28:47,710 --> 00:28:45,110
tri-state area give me a call

741
00:28:51,580 --> 00:28:47,720
you did it you got you got you got your

742
00:28:52,930 --> 00:28:51,590
plug so what do they call the word give

743
00:28:54,850 --> 00:28:52,940
it you know does their specific number

744
00:28:56,250 --> 00:28:54,860
is it on the web page it's on our web

745
00:28:58,150 --> 00:28:56,260
page so you can just look under

746
00:29:00,240 --> 00:28:58,160
education and there's a number of

747
00:29:03,250 --> 00:29:00,250
different ways that you can book

748
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:03,260
different programs but specifically if

749
00:29:07,660 --> 00:29:05,330
you want to come for a Hubble program

750
00:29:09,820 --> 00:29:07,670
you would be calling my office here in

751
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:09,830
the education department I'm on the I

752
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:12,530
manage the school and teacher programs

753
00:29:17,890 --> 00:29:15,290
team and so we're we are really working

754
00:29:20,380 --> 00:29:17,900
with teachers to design very specific

755
00:29:22,090 --> 00:29:20,390
programs that work with the Hubble

756
00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:22,100
exhibit because it is a temporary

757
00:29:26,590 --> 00:29:24,770
exhibition it's not something that we're

758
00:29:28,150 --> 00:29:26,600
going to sadly be offering after next

759
00:29:30,580 --> 00:29:28,160
year so we really want to get people in

760
00:29:32,380 --> 00:29:30,590
here to see it as much as possible so so

761
00:29:34,630 --> 00:29:32,390
book your classes now that's an intrepid

762
00:29:36,580 --> 00:29:34,640
museum dot org and you have all of them

763
00:29:38,230 --> 00:29:36,590
there got a couple questions on the Q&A

764
00:29:40,750 --> 00:29:38,240
app I got one for you I think it's

765
00:29:43,539 --> 00:29:40,760
probably for mike patrick Calhoun is

766
00:29:47,770 --> 00:29:43,549
asking what did your boss say about you

767
00:29:56,020 --> 00:29:47,780
ripping the handle off um a fly off the

768
00:29:58,090 --> 00:29:56,030
handle i ah anybody else any other wise

769
00:30:01,900 --> 00:29:58,100
noise pranks there you go to let him

770
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:01,910
here for um no it says you say what am I

771
00:30:06,789 --> 00:30:04,730
bossy because they were pretty they were

772
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:06,799
our boss was pretty happy the chief

773
00:30:10,030 --> 00:30:08,090
astronaut it was mine you know they were

774
00:30:11,650 --> 00:30:10,040
just happy that we number one you get

775
00:30:15,340 --> 00:30:11,660
back alive and hang the mission was

776
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:15,350
accomplished so I think it was I think

777
00:30:18,490 --> 00:30:16,730
everyone was pretty happy that we can't

778
00:30:19,630 --> 00:30:18,500
would a solution that worked so they

779
00:30:21,700 --> 00:30:19,640
didn't care at all that I ripped the

780
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:21,710
thing off in fact that is uh it was

781
00:30:26,289 --> 00:30:24,410
actually showed how you can use some I

782
00:30:29,260 --> 00:30:26,299
guess some kind of primitive methods to

783
00:30:31,690 --> 00:30:29,270
do something really advanced in space it

784
00:30:32,890 --> 00:30:31,700
was very clever it was yeah wouldn't i

785
00:30:34,930 --> 00:30:32,900
think i'd still be thinking about how to

786
00:30:37,570 --> 00:30:34,940
solve that problem to say five years

787
00:30:39,130 --> 00:30:37,580
later oh not arrow kate anything charge

788
00:30:42,909 --> 00:30:39,140
me for the handrail or anything you let

789
00:30:44,710 --> 00:30:42,919
me go okay it's on a house it has the

790
00:30:47,650 --> 00:30:44,720
virtue of being a simple solution also

791
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:47,660
that's right okay Cecil Morgan is asking

792
00:30:53,230 --> 00:30:49,490
and I think I'll give this one to you

793
00:30:55,510 --> 00:30:53,240
Eric or if it's better for Jerry you let

794
00:30:57,840 --> 00:30:55,520
me know will the museum have an online

795
00:31:00,029 --> 00:30:57,850
version of the HST exhibit

796
00:31:03,690 --> 00:31:00,039
that is going to be for Eric because oh

797
00:31:04,980 --> 00:31:03,700
boy department at the moment we don't

798
00:31:07,650 --> 00:31:04,990
have that capability but it is

799
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:07,660
definitely on our radar and something we

800
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:09,370
want to do in the future when I said

801
00:31:13,049 --> 00:31:10,450
what would that be some kind of virtual

802
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:13,059
sort of walk through thing is that what

803
00:31:16,650 --> 00:31:14,530
is that what he would have in mind or

804
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:16,660
some kind of you know map out of the

805
00:31:21,390 --> 00:31:18,970
whole thing the old have the the high

806
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:21,400
points and interactive point that people

807
00:31:25,919 --> 00:31:24,010
can actually play with that would be the

808
00:31:28,890 --> 00:31:25,929
goal in the future yes I'm sure it's

809
00:31:30,919 --> 00:31:28,900
can't wait for ya it would be nice okay

810
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:30,929
Nathaniel a is this is also from Mike

811
00:31:43,350 --> 00:31:38,370
Nathaniel Sanchez Mike ! Lord angel !

812
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:43,360
any plans to return to star talk ah I

813
00:31:47,279 --> 00:31:45,010
don't know they haven't asked me lately

814
00:31:49,140 --> 00:31:47,289
so I'd be happy to go so I guess the

815
00:31:51,299 --> 00:31:49,150
answer to that is is that indeed all but

816
00:31:53,789 --> 00:31:51,309
sure I'll go back yeah that's at Cindy

817
00:31:56,250 --> 00:31:53,799
oh I'll ask him for you I'm friends with

818
00:31:58,820 --> 00:31:56,260
them so I'll do you a favor don't

don't know if he's still doing the show

833
00:32:37,620 --> 00:32:34,900
she's still doing her show is Nathaniel

834
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:37,630
assure you they're doing live shows are

835
00:32:41,909 --> 00:32:40,570
gonna be out here in LA okay so I'm

836
00:32:43,409 --> 00:32:41,919
gonna be out there with all right cool

837
00:32:46,169 --> 00:32:43,419

while but I'll get back there again it's

839
00:32:51,630 --> 00:32:50,110
always fun to you Neil yeah so a scott

840
00:32:52,950 --> 00:32:51,640
chapman and I'll and Carol i'll include

841
00:32:55,620 --> 00:32:52,960
you in this if you feel like answering

842
00:32:57,830 --> 00:32:55,630
it it's would there be any advantage to

843
00:33:00,659 --> 00:32:57,840
putting a telescope on the moon surface

844
00:33:02,430 --> 00:33:00,669
vs in Earth orbit sort of a general

845
00:33:04,140 --> 00:33:02,440
question not necessarily related to

846
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:04,150
Hubble so we have Hubble in orbit are

847
00:33:09,649 --> 00:33:06,010
there any advantages to putting one on

848
00:33:11,670 --> 00:33:09,659
the on the moon said the dark side it ok

849
00:33:14,670 --> 00:33:11,680
number one it's

850
00:33:18,780 --> 00:33:14,680
not dark side really hi you would get on

851
00:33:20,820 --> 00:33:18,790
this side that is right it is the side

852
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:20,830
that doesn't face the earth sometimes

853
00:33:26,870 --> 00:33:23,170
it's dark sometimes it's light and that

854
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:26,880
is one of them yeah yeah okay

855
00:33:32,220 --> 00:33:29,770
considerations is that there are extreme

856
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:32,230
temperature changes number two if you

857
00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:33,730
put it back there then you need

858
00:33:38,790 --> 00:33:35,770
something in orbit around the moon to

859
00:33:40,650 --> 00:33:38,800
transfer the data or you got to send

860
00:33:44,790 --> 00:33:40,660
people down there to get the data which

861
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:44,800
is kind of a throwback they have we have

862
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:47,170
talked with in our community about a

863
00:33:52,590 --> 00:33:49,810
radio telescope but again because the

864
00:33:54,180 --> 00:33:52,600
structure might be more tolerant of

865
00:33:56,370 --> 00:33:54,190
changes in temperature if you put

866
00:33:59,310 --> 00:33:56,380
something optical in there even even

867
00:34:01,080 --> 00:33:59,320
Hubble has a breathing mode because when

868
00:34:04,470 --> 00:34:01,090
it goes around the earth and it goes in

869
00:34:06,870 --> 00:34:04,480
and out of that thermal environment you

870
00:34:09,930 --> 00:34:06,880
know the telescope breathe so a radio

871
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:09,940
telescope might be less sensitive to

872
00:34:13,770 --> 00:34:12,010
that because you wouldn't really see

873
00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:13,780
those perturbations but again you have

874
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:15,490
the problem with you know building it

875
00:34:19,950 --> 00:34:17,650
back there what kind of facility you're

876
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:19,960
going to have it be great I mean a bit

877
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:22,570
wonderful autonomy but but logistically

878
00:34:28,770 --> 00:34:25,450
it might not be the smartest thing to do

879
00:34:31,530 --> 00:34:28,780
but we always chat about it i'm in the

880
00:34:33,780 --> 00:34:31,540
astronomical community okay so that got

881
00:34:36,630 --> 00:34:33,790
a good question thank you Scott um so

882
00:34:43,650 --> 00:34:36,640
the oh woot vanderheiden's is commenting

883
00:34:48,090 --> 00:34:43,660
he's tweeting Neil now so long ordeal

884
00:34:51,060 --> 00:34:48,100
hello yeah poor meal I'm sure um okay so

885
00:34:52,650 --> 00:34:51,070
uh Eric I just gotta ask and I don't

886
00:34:54,150 --> 00:34:52,660
know if you do that if I work there at

887
00:34:55,740 --> 00:34:54,160
the intrepid museum and I had an

888
00:35:02,360 --> 00:34:55,750
aircraft carrier do you guys ever go up

889
00:35:05,070 --> 00:35:02,370
on the deck and sing i'm on a boat I

890
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:05,080
come to work early every morning and I

891
00:35:09,630 --> 00:35:07,810
could and I do sick because this is just

892
00:35:12,780 --> 00:35:09,640
a remarkable place to you or you're

893
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:12,790
saying that song but I hasn't saying

894
00:35:17,310 --> 00:35:14,410
I've been here almost 10 years now and

895
00:35:19,620 --> 00:35:17,320
this is uh it's an accredited place that

896
00:35:21,420 --> 00:35:19,630
just did it's amazing well you gotta you

897
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:21,430
gotta listen to the song just to do a

898
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:22,810
google and i'm on a boat I think it's

899
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:24,850
t-pain or somebody's

900
00:35:29,130 --> 00:35:27,490
afraid that's not safe for work so we're

901
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:29,140
not gonna mention that on it yeah that's

902
00:35:35,940 --> 00:35:33,130
not safe so I just wondered if you do

903
00:35:37,650 --> 00:35:35,950
that okay so the in addition to the

904
00:35:39,810 --> 00:35:37,660
enterprise what other things you since

905
00:35:41,310 --> 00:35:39,820
you're the creator of aviation there's a

906
00:35:43,590 --> 00:35:41,320
lot of other interesting things that the

907
00:35:44,940 --> 00:35:43,600
at the museum as well right Eric oh boy

908
00:35:46,530 --> 00:35:44,950
we got some cool stuff here so our

909
00:35:51,380 --> 00:35:46,540
collection of aircraft range from a

910
00:35:53,610 --> 00:35:51,390
world war two torpedo bomber to an a 12

911
00:35:57,210 --> 00:35:53,620
project upskirt some people call the

912
00:35:58,950 --> 00:35:57,220
Blackbird the relative of the the sr-71

913
00:36:01,710 --> 00:35:58,960
and we even have a british airways

914
00:36:04,230 --> 00:36:01,720
concord here so there's 27 airplanes in

915
00:36:06,420 --> 00:36:04,240
total we also have a submarine here a

916
00:36:08,610 --> 00:36:06,430
guided missile submarine that has it's a

917
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:08,620
cold war-era submarine with a Regulus

918
00:36:12,870 --> 00:36:11,290
missile on it one of the things that's

919
00:36:14,850 --> 00:36:12,880
really great I right underneath our

920
00:36:16,590 --> 00:36:14,860
enterprise towards the back end the way

921
00:36:19,410 --> 00:36:16,600
from where the Hubble exhibit is we have

922
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:19,420
a store use games an actual phones

923
00:36:25,110 --> 00:36:22,290
capsule yes so that was donated to us by

924
00:36:27,870 --> 00:36:25,120
Greg Olsen who I think he was the third

925
00:36:29,610 --> 00:36:27,880
participant that went up to the ISS with

926
00:36:32,460 --> 00:36:29,620
the Russians and when he came back he

927
00:36:34,410 --> 00:36:32,470
brought his capsule home and we would

928
00:36:37,230 --> 00:36:34,420
really love having it here because it

929
00:36:39,180 --> 00:36:37,240
just shows a piece of tech not a lot

930
00:36:40,770 --> 00:36:39,190
Soyuz capsules on display here in the

931
00:36:43,980 --> 00:36:40,780
United States so it's great to have it

932
00:36:46,260 --> 00:36:43,990
here yeah that is awesome so is there

933
00:36:48,090 --> 00:36:46,270
any um so Mike one of the things I like

934
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:48,100
to do when I have people who you know

935
00:36:51,870 --> 00:36:50,770
have done some amazing like been an

936
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:51,880
astronaut I've been a scientist

937
00:36:54,330 --> 00:36:53,170
astronomer and things like that I've had

938
00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:54,340
Nobel Prize winners I've asked this

939
00:36:58,950 --> 00:36:56,890
question to what advice would you give

940
00:37:01,770 --> 00:36:58,960
to younger people who are just starting

941
00:37:03,720 --> 00:37:01,780
out let's say what is he I guess can you

942
00:37:05,790 --> 00:37:03,730
give us some sense of what the astronaut

943
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:05,800
corps is like now is there is it still

944
00:37:10,350 --> 00:37:07,450
possible to become an astronaut I know

945
00:37:11,790 --> 00:37:10,360
when NASA's got future plans what would

946
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:11,800
what advice would you give to somebody

947
00:37:17,550 --> 00:37:14,850
who wanted to become an astronaut oh

948
00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:17,560
yeah well NASA we just picked a group of

949
00:37:23,100 --> 00:37:20,050
a year ago we picked only eight new

950
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:23,110
astronauts a year ago so it's pretty

951
00:37:27,570 --> 00:37:25,330
competitive there's I think kind of over

952
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:27,580
6,000 applications you come to pick a

953
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:31,770
people 6,000 yeah something like that so

954
00:37:37,500 --> 00:37:34,810
it's a tough job to get anyone who gets

955
00:37:38,590 --> 00:37:37,510
to become an astronaut is well qualified

956
00:37:40,970 --> 00:37:38,600
but also

957
00:37:42,980 --> 00:37:40,980
fortunate because there's not that many

958
00:37:46,370 --> 00:37:42,990
spots but there's still that possibility

959
00:37:47,780 --> 00:37:46,380
I think now that we have some commercial

960
00:37:50,210 --> 00:37:47,790
companies are working with to provide

961
00:37:52,010 --> 00:37:50,220
law services of people to the

962
00:37:54,470 --> 00:37:52,020
international space station is going to

963
00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:54,480
be more seats and we're going to need

964
00:37:57,260 --> 00:37:55,890
more astronauts so I think that those

965
00:38:00,320 --> 00:37:57,270
numbers will increase that the class

966
00:38:02,450 --> 00:38:00,330
size that I was in back in 1996 we have

967
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:02,460
35 Americans so that was a pretty bit of

968
00:38:06,830 --> 00:38:04,650
class so depending on what the need is

969
00:38:08,210 --> 00:38:06,840
they look at that amount of new ass

970
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:08,220
rocity so I think that numbers going to

971
00:38:12,050 --> 00:38:09,930
start to increase again it went down I

972
00:38:13,490 --> 00:38:12,060
think it's gotten lower now I thinking

973
00:38:14,690 --> 00:38:13,500
next coming next few selections are

974
00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:14,700
going to see it starting to rise up

975
00:38:17,420 --> 00:38:16,050
again they're going to need more and

976
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:17,430
more people and though there is there is

977
00:38:21,020 --> 00:38:19,530
still a massively active astronaut corps

978
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:21,030
yeah of course yeah sorry to me I just

979
00:38:24,530 --> 00:38:22,890
think a granted everybody knows that but

980
00:38:26,420 --> 00:38:24,540
we'd but many people don't okay the

981
00:38:28,490 --> 00:38:26,430
London I mean I you know if to America's

982
00:38:30,170 --> 00:38:28,500
in space right now we got to Americans

983
00:38:33,950 --> 00:38:30,180
in space right now orbiting in the space

984
00:38:35,300 --> 00:38:33,960
station so so there's six people in

985
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:35,310
space right now to have more Americans

986
00:38:38,870 --> 00:38:37,290
so yeah if you're in if you're from

987
00:38:40,550 --> 00:38:38,880
other countries too or we have appealed

988
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:40,560
from Europe that shots from Europe

989
00:38:44,810 --> 00:38:42,690
Canada all around the world Japan and so

990
00:38:46,460 --> 00:38:44,820
on so just how wherever you are it might

991
00:38:48,620 --> 00:38:46,470
be listen to this if yours country of

992
00:38:50,450 --> 00:38:48,630
space program there's the opportunity to

993
00:38:52,460 --> 00:38:50,460
do that it uses a goal that's what I did

994
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:52,470
I mean it's unlike it was unlikely when

995
00:38:55,730 --> 00:38:53,970
I applied when I was dreaming about it

996
00:38:56,930 --> 00:38:55,740
but it's kind of the chances with zero

997
00:38:58,430 --> 00:38:56,940
if you don't know anything about it

998
00:39:00,950 --> 00:38:58,440
that's all the meth what you want to do

999
00:39:02,270 --> 00:39:00,960
that's just you know I was who dat who

1000
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:02,280
dat knew I was would be able to do it

1001
00:39:06,170 --> 00:39:04,530
but in any of my colleagues with a lady

1002
00:39:07,700 --> 00:39:06,180
the same story yeah so unlikely but

1003
00:39:09,950 --> 00:39:07,710
you're not going to do it unless you try

1004
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:09,960
so if so if people I want to do that

1005
00:39:13,490 --> 00:39:11,490
their students I want to do that kids I

1006
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:13,500
want to do that it's great um they're

1007
00:39:17,750 --> 00:39:15,570
still picking people from technical

1008
00:39:19,010 --> 00:39:17,760
background so that can be just about

1009
00:39:21,500 --> 00:39:19,020
anything I mean you mentioned

1010
00:39:23,540 --> 00:39:21,510
astronomers but we only have engineers

1011
00:39:28,670 --> 00:39:23,550
pilots medical doctors veterinarian

1012
00:39:30,500 --> 00:39:28,680
rippling and a geology these guys people

1013
00:39:34,250 --> 00:39:30,510
I flew with for example drew Wisel

1014
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:34,260
geologists magna carta an oceanographer

1015
00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:36,930
uh Rick lenihan I mentioned as a

1016
00:39:40,850 --> 00:39:39,090
veterinarian so there's there's lots of

1017
00:39:42,410 --> 00:39:40,860
different backgrounds and some of you

1018
00:39:43,940 --> 00:39:42,420
might not associate with space travel

1019
00:39:45,850 --> 00:39:43,950
you might think astronomer engineer a

1020
00:39:48,410 --> 00:39:45,860
pilot but just about anything

1021
00:39:50,720 --> 00:39:48,420
technically oriented medicine math

1022
00:39:52,210 --> 00:39:50,730
whatever it might be computers put it

1023
00:39:54,910 --> 00:39:52,220
makes you qualified you can see the list

1024
00:40:00,099 --> 00:39:54,920
these things on the website on the NHS

1025
00:40:01,540 --> 00:40:00,109
election website or that NASA so if you

1026
00:40:04,089 --> 00:40:01,550
want it if you want to do it yeah I mean

1027
00:40:06,370 --> 00:40:04,099
yeah it's unlikely maybe if that could

1028
00:40:09,310 --> 00:40:06,380
happen to me and if that's what your

1029
00:40:10,420 --> 00:40:09,320
dream is you gotta try again I think the

1030
00:40:12,070 --> 00:40:10,430
opportunity is always going to be there

1031
00:40:13,330 --> 00:40:12,080
for a long time I think it's very

1032
00:40:15,700 --> 00:40:13,340
exciting to is there may be other

1033
00:40:19,390 --> 00:40:15,710
opportunities with commercial companies

1034
00:40:21,670 --> 00:40:19,400
as companies like SpaceX and Virgin

1035
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:21,680
Galactic and these other companies had

1036
00:40:26,410 --> 00:40:24,290
to put people into space I think there's

1037
00:40:28,750 --> 00:40:26,420
going to be not only NASA government

1038
00:40:30,370 --> 00:40:28,760
astronauts like I was but I think

1039
00:40:31,750 --> 00:40:30,380
they'll also be astronauts working for

1040
00:40:34,180 --> 00:40:31,760
these other companies so I think there's

1041
00:40:35,470 --> 00:40:34,190
there's lots of opportunities coming up

1042
00:40:37,900 --> 00:40:35,480
for the for young people who are

1043
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:37,910
interested in flying into space and if

1044
00:40:43,930 --> 00:40:40,490
you have that dream you should do it you

1045
00:40:46,930 --> 00:40:43,940
should try you know do what you love but

1046
00:40:48,700 --> 00:40:46,940
keep an eye on on what your goal is you

1047
00:40:51,070 --> 00:40:48,710
know and again it could be whatever you

1048
00:40:53,530 --> 00:40:51,080
want I mean any technical field is a

1049
00:40:55,990 --> 00:40:53,540
qualifying feel so pick the field that

1050
00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:56,000
that you like if you couldn't be that's

1051
00:40:59,320 --> 00:40:57,410
not what would you want to do that's you

1052
00:41:01,120 --> 00:40:59,330
should do you need apply to be a

1053
00:41:02,050 --> 00:41:01,130
national at the same time well it sounds

1054
00:41:03,670 --> 00:41:02,060
to me like there would be kind of an

1055
00:41:05,650 --> 00:41:03,680
inherent bias though towards some

1056
00:41:08,589 --> 00:41:05,660
engineering fields if I might be more

1057
00:41:10,570 --> 00:41:08,599
likely to you know more of it more the

1058
00:41:12,220 --> 00:41:10,580
more spots open for an engineer type and

1059
00:41:13,930 --> 00:41:12,230
say maybe a science type or wood or is

1060
00:41:15,609 --> 00:41:13,940
that just not true well I mean you might

1061
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:15,619
uh might be true but guess what get some

1062
00:41:20,079 --> 00:41:17,170
you know if you look at a number of

1063
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:20,089
applications yeah there's probably more

1064
00:41:25,750 --> 00:41:23,690
you know there's it's you know what I

1065
00:41:28,570 --> 00:41:25,760
want to consider you do any love because

1066
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:28,580
i think i figured i picked someone from

1067
00:41:32,650 --> 00:41:30,770
the life sciences area or it's going to

1068
00:41:34,720 --> 00:41:32,660
be a smaller pool because maybe that's

1069
00:41:36,430 --> 00:41:34,730
less there's lots of Engineers right so

1070
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:36,440
it's going to that's a huge group i

1071
00:41:41,079 --> 00:41:39,050
reviewed applications this grew up

1072
00:41:43,180 --> 00:41:41,089
different for different selections that

1073
00:41:45,070 --> 00:41:43,190
we've had at nasa astronaut selection

1074
00:41:47,140 --> 00:41:45,080
and the you the biggest group is always

1075
00:41:48,579 --> 00:41:47,150
the engineers that doesn't mean you have

1076
00:41:50,650 --> 00:41:48,589
the greatest chance because if you're

1077
00:41:53,020 --> 00:41:50,660
they're going to pick five from that

1078
00:41:54,910 --> 00:41:53,030
group and there's a you know more so it

1079
00:41:56,050 --> 00:41:54,920
i don't think you can play numbers like

1080
00:41:57,849 --> 00:41:56,060
that i think that's not a good way to

1081
00:41:59,230 --> 00:41:57,859
look at it you should never pick your

1082
00:42:00,730 --> 00:41:59,240
career based on what you think is going

1083
00:42:02,620 --> 00:42:00,740
to make give you a chance to be an

1084
00:42:04,990 --> 00:42:02,630
astronaut do not do that that is a

1085
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:05,000
stupid thing to do don't pick don't pick

1086
00:42:06,590 --> 00:42:05,490
your career

1087
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:06,600
because I'm going to do this because I'm

1088
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:08,130
going to become an instrument pick your

1089
00:42:12,410 --> 00:42:10,530
career of what you want to do and apply

1090
00:42:14,390 --> 00:42:12,420
to be an astronaut myth that career if

1091
00:42:15,620 --> 00:42:14,400
you have a love for medicine and you

1092
00:42:17,930 --> 00:42:15,630
think we'll have a better chance to be

1093
00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:17,940
an astronaut if I my engineer don't do

1094
00:42:23,690 --> 00:42:20,970
that become a medical doc that's great

1095
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:23,700
it is going to you know I it's not only

1096
00:42:26,990 --> 00:42:25,290
going to give you a good career in case

1097
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:27,000
you don't become an astronaut but I

1098
00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:28,650
think it gives you the best chance of

1099
00:42:31,550 --> 00:42:30,090
becoming an astronaut that's great

1100
00:42:33,260 --> 00:42:31,560
advice you're going to want to get into

1101
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:33,270
a situation where you become a finalist

1102
00:42:36,770 --> 00:42:34,650
and you're in at an interview and

1103
00:42:38,090 --> 00:42:36,780
they're going to ask you why did you do

1104
00:42:40,310 --> 00:42:38,100
this if you said well the only reason I

1105
00:42:41,900 --> 00:42:40,320
became an engineer was because you know

1106
00:42:42,980 --> 00:42:41,910
you could lie i guess but if the truth

1107
00:42:44,510 --> 00:42:42,990
of it is the only reason you became an

1108
00:42:45,770 --> 00:42:44,520
edema to become an answer that's fine

1109
00:42:46,790 --> 00:42:45,780
that's such a good idea you should

1110
00:42:47,900 --> 00:42:46,800
become an engineer because that's what

1111
00:42:49,010 --> 00:42:47,910
you want to study to become a medical

1112
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:49,020
doctor because that's what you want to

1113
00:42:54,470 --> 00:42:51,930
do or whatever it might be and and if

1114
00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:54,480
you're if you do the best you can at

1115
00:42:57,080 --> 00:42:56,130
that profession you love what you do

1116
00:42:58,609 --> 00:42:57,090
that gives you the best chance of

1117
00:43:00,290 --> 00:42:58,619
becoming a national but also in your

1118
00:43:03,260 --> 00:43:00,300
point on being the best of the best are

1119
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:03,270
usually selected if you are really happy

1120
00:43:06,350 --> 00:43:04,530
and passionate about you're doing that's

1121
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:06,360
much more likely to be the case perfect

1122
00:43:10,130 --> 00:43:08,850
Odessa I that's a new set in a few words

1123
00:43:12,740 --> 00:43:10,140
for what I've been trying to psyche as

1124
00:43:14,270 --> 00:43:12,750
10 minutes do what you're passionate

1125
00:43:15,950 --> 00:43:14,280
about and you're going to do good at it

1126
00:43:17,090 --> 00:43:15,960
and you're going to shine and you when

1127
00:43:19,190 --> 00:43:17,100
you get and talk to people without

1128
00:43:21,410 --> 00:43:19,200
you'll be happy and that's the kind of

1129
00:43:24,170 --> 00:43:21,420
people that they choose Kimberly has a

know it's on your website but just

1195
00:46:12,620 --> 00:46:08,609
briefly how do you get to the intrepid

1196
00:46:16,489 --> 00:46:12,630

00:46:24,229 --> 00:46:22,380
problem with you there okay ya know you

get on the subway and the closest subway

1201
00:46:29,749 --> 00:46:27,150
stop here we go is the AC e at

1202
00:46:31,990 --> 00:46:29,759
forty-second Street over square times

1203
00:46:34,030 --> 00:46:32,000
square and then I can either choose

1204
00:46:37,530 --> 00:46:34,040
walk down lovely 42nd avenue for about

1205
00:46:40,180 --> 00:46:37,540
15-20 minutes or you can take the m42

1206
00:46:43,690 --> 00:46:40,190
crosstown uh the right direction you

1207
00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:43,700
have to go west yes yes good you're in

1208
00:46:48,310 --> 00:46:44,690
Time Square its can be a little

1209
00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:48,320
discombobulating but yeah it's lovely

1210
00:46:52,900 --> 00:46:49,610

1212
00:46:58,470 --> 00:46:55,970
by the way if you go around new years I

1213
00:47:02,290 --> 00:46:58,480
heard today that there might be a big

1214
00:47:04,570 --> 00:47:02,300
Hubble image in Times Square really so I

1215
00:47:05,950 --> 00:47:04,580
think so I think somebody's working on

1216
00:47:07,210 --> 00:47:05,960
that so that'd be nice you can go look

1217
00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:07,220
at the Hubble image and then you can

1218
00:47:12,970 --> 00:47:10,130
walk down to the museum no that's

1219
00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:12,980
against e1a a question earlier i'm

1220
00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:14,570
trying to find it but it was asking

1221
00:47:19,860 --> 00:47:16,610
about the intrepid for those that aren't

1222
00:47:22,270 --> 00:47:19,870
