1
00:00:14,549 --> 00:00:13,110
i certainly

2
00:00:15,669 --> 00:00:14,559
look at how we progress just in my

3
00:00:17,590 --> 00:00:15,679
lifetime

4
00:00:19,750 --> 00:00:17,600
and just been amazed at what humans can

5
00:00:29,589 --> 00:00:19,760
do in space and the exploration out

6
00:00:35,510 --> 00:00:31,910
i mean literally the physical excitement

7
00:00:37,990 --> 00:00:35,520
that you can get doing something that is

8
00:00:39,830 --> 00:00:38,000
new and hasn't been done how can we do

9
00:00:41,590 --> 00:00:39,840
this and share it with the world and

10
00:00:43,830 --> 00:00:41,600
open up opportunities for other people

11
00:00:45,110 --> 00:00:43,840
when we were doing the cave expedition

12
00:00:48,069 --> 00:00:45,120
and we were going out into parts of the

13
00:00:49,910 --> 00:00:48,079
cave and literally mapping out the cave

14
00:00:51,430 --> 00:00:49,920
that had not been mapped before i mean

15
00:00:53,430 --> 00:00:51,440
every day you got woke up excited what

16
00:00:57,029 --> 00:00:53,440
are we going to find today and the the

17
00:00:58,389 --> 00:00:57,039
beauty in the cave was just astounding

18
00:01:00,950 --> 00:00:58,399
it was like another planet because it's

19
00:01:02,549 --> 00:01:00,960
nothing you had ever seen before it was

20
00:01:03,750 --> 00:01:02,559
very much like being in space in that

21
00:01:05,429 --> 00:01:03,760
the temperature was always the same the

22
00:01:07,109 --> 00:01:05,439
humidity was always the same you never

23
00:01:09,190 --> 00:01:07,119
knew what time it was because it's

24
00:01:12,230 --> 00:01:09,200
always dark so you had a lot of really

25
00:01:13,990 --> 00:01:12,240
good analogs to space flight the

26
00:01:16,149 --> 00:01:14,000
aquanaut opportunity in the aquarius

27
00:01:17,910 --> 00:01:16,159
habitat off the coast of florida

28
00:01:19,749 --> 00:01:17,920
was another one we were down under water

29
00:01:21,429 --> 00:01:19,759
for a week where we're doing simulated

30
00:01:22,630 --> 00:01:21,439
space walks with hard head diving we're

31
00:01:24,870 --> 00:01:22,640
out there for you know four or five

32
00:01:26,870 --> 00:01:24,880
hours and working with a misumlated

33
00:01:28,789 --> 00:01:26,880
mission control we're doing time delay

34
00:01:29,830 --> 00:01:28,799
like we would if we were on mars and so

35
00:01:31,670 --> 00:01:29,840
working through those types of things

36
00:01:33,749 --> 00:01:31,680
was really a neat part of the mission

37
00:01:35,830 --> 00:01:33,759
and so if we can send astronauts to do

38
00:01:37,910 --> 00:01:35,840
training like that then they've done

39
00:01:39,350 --> 00:01:37,920
this extreme environment that extreme

40
00:01:41,030 --> 00:01:39,360
environment so when they get to space

41
00:01:43,590 --> 00:01:41,040
it's not the first time and they're

42
00:01:45,590 --> 00:01:43,600
overwhelmed it's just another extreme

43
00:01:49,429 --> 00:01:45,600
environment they're able to participate

44
00:01:51,250 --> 00:01:49,439
in and to just train to expect extreme

45
00:01:53,590 --> 00:01:51,260
and just cope with it when it happens

46
00:01:54,950 --> 00:01:53,600

i'm randy bresnik and i'm fortunate

48
00:02:09,749 --> 00:01:58,240
