1 00:00:12,789 --> 00:00:10,549 in the future a group of adults will use 2 00:00:14,950 --> 00:00:12,799 their intellect their leadership and 3 00:00:17,189 --> 00:00:14,960 their innovations to shape the world 4 00:00:19,910 --> 00:00:17,199 they will use their talent to carry the 5 00:00:22,150 --> 00:00:19,920 human race to new levels of ingenuity 6 00:00:25,029 --> 00:00:22,160 today they have just completed their 7 00:00:34,310 --> 00:00:25,039 first mission the haas summer experience 8 00:00:38,869 --> 00:00:37,750 students were split up into groups red 9 00:00:39,830 --> 00:00:38,879 white 10 00:00:42,389 --> 00:00:39,840 blue 11 00:00:44,389 --> 00:00:42,399 and gray and the teams collaborated as a 12 00:00:47,750 --> 00:00:44,399 whole to plan a potential mission to 13 00:00:49,750 --> 00:00:47,760 promote the human exploration of mars 14 00:00:51,830 --> 00:00:49,760 as system manager i oversee our main 15 00:00:54,310 --> 00:00:51,840 subgroups and special projects i work 16 00:00:56,470 --> 00:00:54,320 closely with the point of contact to 17 00:00:58,470 --> 00:00:56,480 make sure that everyone is informed and 18 00:01:00,310 --> 00:00:58,480 things are going smoothly 19 00:01:02,229 --> 00:01:00,320 so my name is jose flores and i was a 20 00:01:03,029 --> 00:01:02,239 poc or the point of contact for the red 21 00:01:04,310 --> 00:01:03,039 team 22 00:01:06,070 --> 00:01:04,320 i controlled a lot of the aspects of 23 00:01:07,750 --> 00:01:06,080 communication for my team between you 24 00:01:09,590 --> 00:01:07,760 know between teams for my rent team to 25 00:01:11,670 --> 00:01:09,600 the blue team to the great team 26 00:01:13,190 --> 00:01:11,680 i am the system engineer for rational 27 00:01:15,190 --> 00:01:13,200 and risk assessments we will be 28 00:01:16,550 --> 00:01:15,200 researching about how likely the risk 29 00:01:18,950 --> 00:01:16,560 will occur 30 00:01:20,710 --> 00:01:18,960 how to fix the problem and how to 31 00:01:21,990 --> 00:01:20,720 minimize the risk during the journey 32 00:01:24,149 --> 00:01:22,000 tomorrow 33 00:01:25,670 --> 00:01:24,159 working with others currently my 34 00:01:27,749 --> 00:01:25,680 teammates and i are working and 35 00:01:30,469 --> 00:01:27,759 attempting to find the best way to 36 00:01:33,429 --> 00:01:30,479 travel to mars and by doing this i feel 37 00:01:35,109 --> 00:01:33,439 like i'm part of nasa and it feels 38 00:01:37,350 --> 00:01:35,119 amazing 39 00:01:39,270 --> 00:01:37,360 hi my name is arishi divale i am the 40 00:01:41,749 --> 00:01:39,280 system engineer for the interplanetary 41 00:01:43,510 --> 00:01:41,759 spacecraft design and red team 42 00:01:45,190 --> 00:01:43,520 currently we're trying to implement the 43 00:01:47,350 --> 00:01:45,200 vasmir 44 00:01:49,910 --> 00:01:47,360 rocket propulsion technology on our 45 00:01:51,910 --> 00:01:49,920 spacecraft 46 00:01:54,230 --> 00:01:51,920 students were given the opportunity to 47 00:01:57,350 --> 00:01:54,240 speak with nasa employees and cite them 48 00:01:58,709 --> 00:01:57,360 in their final presentation 49 00:02:00,389 --> 00:01:58,719 the most interesting thing i learned 50 00:02:02,469 --> 00:02:00,399 during the interview was how the 51 00:02:03,910 --> 00:02:02,479 vassamer engine the engine that we use 52 00:02:05,990 --> 00:02:03,920 that we chose 53 00:02:07,670 --> 00:02:06,000 uses constant propulsion to reach mars 54 00:02:09,430 --> 00:02:07,680 faster than a conventional rocket cam 55 00:02:11,430 --> 00:02:09,440 very slowly with it it's a very very 56 00:02:13,430 --> 00:02:11,440 efficient engine 57 00:02:16,150 --> 00:02:13,440 i played a large part in developing and 58 00:02:18,150 --> 00:02:16,160 building an nxt rover this rover is the 59 00:02:21,030 --> 00:02:18,160 nxt computer mounted on top of a 60 00:02:22,949 --> 00:02:21,040 four-wheel drive train and an arm we 61 00:02:25,430 --> 00:02:22,959 will use the arm drive train and a 62 00:02:27,670 --> 00:02:25,440 microphone to collect and identify rock 63 00:02:29,830 --> 00:02:27,680 and water samples in competition with 64 00:02:31,589 --> 00:02:29,840 three other teams 65 00:02:33,509 --> 00:02:31,599 i am the lunar prototyping and testing 66 00:02:35,110 --> 00:02:33,519 systems engineer i oversee all the 67 00:02:37,509 --> 00:02:35,120 research and development of primary and 68 00:02:39,430 --> 00:02:37,519 secondary systems on the lunar surface i 69 00:02:41,190 --> 00:02:39,440 find that communication is a vital tool 70 00:02:43,190 --> 00:02:41,200 needed for this position as well as for 71 00:02:45,270 --> 00:02:43,200 the team 72 00:02:47,350 --> 00:02:45,280 along with the final project students 73 00:02:49,350 --> 00:02:47,360 work together to complete challenges and 74 00:02:51,509 --> 00:02:49,360 innovation including the real-life 75 00:02:53,589 --> 00:02:51,519 struggle of planning financing and 76 00:03:06,710 --> 00:02:53,599 engineering a successful spacecraft 77 00:03:10,630 --> 00:03:08,309 throughout the week a number of 78 00:03:16,070 --> 00:03:10,640 experienced nasa employees presented 79 00:03:20,710 --> 00:03:18,070 i concentrated throughout my astronaut 80 00:03:23,030 --> 00:03:20,720 career and talking to young people about 81 00:03:25,430 --> 00:03:23,040 setting goals for themselves and working 82 00:03:27,430 --> 00:03:25,440 hard to achieve those goals 83 00:03:29,190 --> 00:03:27,440 you can't pursue a dream you can't 84 00:03:30,550 --> 00:03:29,200 achieve a dream if you don't have a 85 00:03:32,149 --> 00:03:30,560 dream 86 00:03:33,670 --> 00:03:32,159 and i personally think that everybody 87 00:03:35,589 --> 00:03:33,680 was put on the surface of the earth by 88 00:03:37,190 --> 00:03:35,599 god for a certain reason 89 00:03:39,110 --> 00:03:37,200 and that reason is something that you 90 00:03:40,550 --> 00:03:39,120 have to figure out what it is what are 91 00:03:42,390 --> 00:03:40,560 your likes what are your dislikes what 92 00:03:45,030 --> 00:03:42,400 are your talents what would you pay to 93 00:03:46,630 --> 00:03:45,040 do if you could do it 94 00:03:48,470 --> 00:03:46,640 the most important thing that we walk 95 00:03:50,470 --> 00:03:48,480 away with from this program is the 96 00:03:52,789 --> 00:03:50,480 skills we developed from working in a 97 00:03:54,630 --> 00:03:52,799 team we gained first-hand experience in 98 00:03:56,309 --> 00:03:54,640 the various aspects of teamwork which 99 00:03:58,229 --> 00:03:56,319 would be useful in many real world 100 00:04:00,630 --> 00:03:58,239 situations in the workplace especially 101 00:04:02,149 --> 00:04:00,640 if any of us choose to work at nasa 102 00:04:03,190 --> 00:04:02,159 where communication is the key to 103 00:04:04,710 --> 00:04:03,200 success 104 00:04:06,710 --> 00:04:04,720 all of our team members had to learn 105 00:04:08,550 --> 00:04:06,720 about dividing workloads maintaining an 106 00:04:10,309 --> 00:04:08,560 energetic attitude and communicating 107 00:04:12,149 --> 00:04:10,319 effectively to ensure the successful 108 00:04:13,990 --> 00:04:12,159 completion of our project 109 00:04:16,229 --> 00:04:14,000 students participating in the haas 110 00:04:18,069 --> 00:04:16,239 experience were not only given a glimpse 111 00:04:20,469 --> 00:04:18,079 of their role in the future of space 112 00:04:21,909 --> 00:04:20,479 exploration but were also reminded of 113 00:04:23,990 --> 00:04:21,919 the achievements of those who came 114 00:04:25,990 --> 00:04:24,000 before them with a complete tour of the 115 00:04:27,510 --> 00:04:26,000 johnson space center and a presentation 116 00:04:29,270 --> 00:04:27,520 by gene kranz 117 00:04:31,030 --> 00:04:29,280 mission control there's no such thing as 118 00:04:33,350 --> 00:04:31,040 a first team because once we launch 119 00:04:35,270 --> 00:04:33,360 everything must be capable of 120 00:04:37,590 --> 00:04:35,280 accomplishing the mission 121 00:04:39,510 --> 00:04:37,600 and finally one we must act alone and we 122 00:04:41,749 --> 00:04:39,520 know that time will come to each of us 123 00:04:43,670 --> 00:04:41,759 we are never alone because we know our 124 00:04:46,629 --> 00:04:43,680 team stands with us 125 00:04:47,830 --> 00:04:46,639 and our line of work failure is not an 126 00:04:50,230 --> 00:04:47,840 option 127 00:04:52,070 --> 00:04:50,240 very challenging but it's a marvelous 128 00:04:54,550 --> 00:04:52,080 way to live 129 00:04:56,790 --> 00:04:54,560 the future of space exploration is the
