2
00:00:16,820 --> 00:00:15,690
so I always as a kid I never would have

3
00:00:18,230 --> 00:00:16,830
told anybody that I wanted to be an

4
00:00:20,150 --> 00:00:18,240
astronaut my attitude about that was

5
00:00:22,310 --> 00:00:20,160
like saying I want to be spider-man or I

6
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:22,320
want to be a superhero I always thought

7
00:00:27,079 --> 00:00:24,570
that working in NASA would be amazing

8
00:00:29,630 --> 00:00:27,089
because I my physics background the

9
00:00:31,009 --> 00:00:29,640
photography you see from space and the

10
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:31,019
knowledge that we're kind of pushing the

11
00:00:35,390 --> 00:00:33,810
limits with our space program all those

12
00:00:36,530 --> 00:00:35,400
things made NASA seem very appealing to

13
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:36,540
me the fact that I got to be an

14
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:38,970
astronaut was is gravy and now my

15
00:00:42,530 --> 00:00:40,530
attitude about actually being a National

16
00:00:43,820 --> 00:00:42,540
actually getting to go to space that's

17
00:00:45,260 --> 00:00:43,830
all just in case I keep getting these

18
00:00:50,590 --> 00:00:45,270
bonus deals that are even better and

19
00:00:56,470 --> 00:00:52,390
the thing about physics that I really

20
00:00:59,410 --> 00:00:56,480
like is it takes what we know figures

21
00:01:01,450 --> 00:00:59,420
out a mathematical model for it and then

22
00:01:03,460 --> 00:01:01,460
you can use that to try to get to what

23
00:01:06,910 --> 00:01:03,470
we don't know and theorize about things

24
00:01:08,950 --> 00:01:06,920
it helps us imagine things that we can't

25
00:01:11,410 --> 00:01:08,960
even sometimes use instruments yet to

26
00:01:14,380 --> 00:01:11,420
detect and then science follows up with

27
00:01:17,140 --> 00:01:14,390
that to try to do experiments and try to

28
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:17,150
test theories and come up with so

29
00:01:20,530 --> 00:01:18,890
certainly being able to contribute to

30
00:01:23,260 --> 00:01:20,540
science a Space Station is all about

31
00:01:26,290 --> 00:01:23,270
science it's helping NASA further

32
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:26,300
exploration goals I really think we have

33
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:27,170
to keep exploring

34
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:29,810
most of our nation's background involves

35
00:01:32,980 --> 00:01:30,890
people leaving what they were

36
00:01:34,540 --> 00:01:32,990
comfortable with and coming to a place

37
00:01:36,130 --> 00:01:34,550
that was new and different and very

38
00:01:38,490 --> 00:01:36,140
risky so I think it's part of our

39
00:01:40,389 --> 00:01:38,500
national character to want to explore

40
00:01:42,310 --> 00:01:40,399
dedicating those resources to this

41
00:01:46,210 --> 00:01:42,320
peaceful endeavor that could actually

42
00:01:51,010 --> 00:01:46,220
help out all of humanity my name is Mark
