1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:01:00,580 [Music] 2 00:01:03,979 --> 00:01:02,540 all right greetings once again and 3 00:01:06,170 --> 00:01:03,989 welcome back to our this week I'm Joshua 4 00:01:08,570 --> 00:01:06,180 Santora being joined by three amazing 5 00:01:11,690 --> 00:01:08,580 ladies who are helping to make the Orion 6 00:01:12,620 --> 00:01:11,700 program happen a reality ladies thanks 7 00:01:14,389 --> 00:01:12,630 for joining me I want to go and 8 00:01:15,020 --> 00:01:14,399 introduce you all first up Laura 9 00:01:19,070 --> 00:01:15,030 pullaiah 10 00:01:20,359 --> 00:01:19,080 is a test engineer for Orion she works 11 00:01:23,330 --> 00:01:20,369 at the Kennedy Space Center Laura how 12 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:23,340 are you I'm good and yourself 13 00:01:26,749 --> 00:01:24,810 I'm doing great hey can you tell us a 14 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:26,759 little bit about just really quickly 15 00:01:32,540 --> 00:01:28,530 what do you do for a Ryan at the Kennedy 16 00:01:35,090 --> 00:01:32,550 Space Center so out here I specifically 17 00:01:37,730 --> 00:01:35,100 focus on testing Orion at a system level 18 00:01:39,410 --> 00:01:37,740 and ensuring is qualified to meet the 19 00:01:41,630 --> 00:01:39,420 different experiments that is going to 20 00:01:44,690 --> 00:01:41,640 experience during launch mission and 21 00:01:46,820 --> 00:01:44,700 recovery I also work on testing Orion to 22 00:01:49,070 --> 00:01:46,830 ensure it meets those performance 23 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:49,080 expectations perfect per the design 24 00:01:55,490 --> 00:01:51,810 which is essentially like manufacturing 25 00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:55,500 company of a car vehicle in innocent in 26 00:02:00,020 --> 00:01:57,810 essence yeah that's awesome we wanted to 27 00:02:02,420 --> 00:02:00,030 use a car analogy today to help explain 28 00:02:04,730 --> 00:02:02,430 these roles because it is incredibly 29 00:02:06,380 --> 00:02:04,740 complex to build a spaceship because 30 00:02:08,630 --> 00:02:06,390 that's what we're talking about this is 31 00:02:10,069 --> 00:02:08,640 that spaceship recently departed this 32 00:02:11,930 --> 00:02:10,079 facility in Ohio to come back to the 33 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:11,940 Kennedy Space Center so we're excited to 34 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:14,250 have her back so next up we have Susan 35 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:14,970 beggarman 36 00:02:18,620 --> 00:02:17,250 Susan thank you for being here what is 37 00:02:22,069 --> 00:02:18,630 it that you do and you're at the Johnson 38 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:22,079 Space Center correct I am yes I'm at 39 00:02:26,630 --> 00:02:23,730 Johnson's being in there performance 40 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:26,640 throughout the mission so we basically 41 00:02:30,050 --> 00:02:28,170 take a human systems integration 42 00:02:32,930 --> 00:02:30,060 approach were involved from the very 43 00:02:35,479 --> 00:02:32,940 beginning from like the initial 44 00:02:37,009 --> 00:02:35,489 architectural and conceptual design 45 00:02:39,170 --> 00:02:37,019 decisions all the way through the 46 00:02:42,099 --> 00:02:39,180 detailed designs the certification of 47 00:02:44,330 --> 00:02:42,109 the vehicle and then we also help 48 00:02:46,910 --> 00:02:44,340 contribute to the training of the crew 49 00:02:49,250 --> 00:02:46,920 and the execution of the mission 50 00:02:51,229 --> 00:02:49,260 my group spans a wide variety of 51 00:02:53,210 --> 00:02:51,239 disciplines all focused on human health 52 00:02:56,660 --> 00:02:53,220 and performance so everything from human 53 00:02:57,530 --> 00:02:56,670 factors to medical operations radiation 54 00:03:01,250 --> 00:02:57,540 acoustics 55 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:01,260 food environmental health exercise crew 56 00:03:04,849 --> 00:03:02,970 countermeasures basically any of the 57 00:03:07,350 --> 00:03:04,859 things that are needed to keep the 58 00:03:10,260 --> 00:03:07,360 astronauts healthy happy and productive 59 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:10,270 while their entity so once where you sit 60 00:03:13,830 --> 00:03:12,130 in the car and be sure that you like the 61 00:03:16,050 --> 00:03:13,840 way it feels that you can reach all the 62 00:03:20,640 --> 00:03:16,060 controls that you're able to drive the 63 00:03:23,940 --> 00:03:20,650 car and that you basically are happy 64 00:03:25,890 --> 00:03:23,950 with the car itself that that's our 65 00:03:28,830 --> 00:03:25,900 focus is that interaction between the 66 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:28,840 astronaut and the hardware itself yeah 67 00:03:31,530 --> 00:03:29,410 awesome 68 00:03:32,990 --> 00:03:31,540 and then last up we have Lauren Bacall 69 00:03:34,890 --> 00:03:33,000 you're Lauren thanks for being here and 70 00:03:38,010 --> 00:03:34,900 you're at the Johnson Space Center as 71 00:03:40,740 --> 00:03:38,020 well correct yeah that's right Joshua 72 00:03:43,020 --> 00:03:40,750 I'm here at Johnson Space Center and I 73 00:03:46,650 --> 00:03:43,030 am the flight operations manager 74 00:03:48,540 --> 00:03:46,660 supporting the Orion program flight 75 00:03:50,610 --> 00:03:48,550 operations is responsible for planning 76 00:03:53,070 --> 00:03:50,620 the mission training the flight control 77 00:03:54,449 --> 00:03:53,080 team and the astronauts and flying the 78 00:03:57,150 --> 00:03:54,459 mission which means we command and 79 00:03:59,729 --> 00:03:57,160 control the Orion spacecraft from the 80 00:04:02,220 --> 00:03:59,739 Mission Control during the mission using 81 00:04:05,430 --> 00:04:02,230 the car analogy we are conducting 82 00:04:06,930 --> 00:04:05,440 training sort of similar to learning how 83 00:04:09,479 --> 00:04:06,940 to drive a car what you would learn in 84 00:04:11,670 --> 00:04:09,489 drivers education and then during the 85 00:04:13,500 --> 00:04:11,680 mission were the actual driver or the 86 00:04:15,420 --> 00:04:13,510 flight control team that's commanding 87 00:04:20,449 --> 00:04:15,430 and controlling the spacecraft during 88 00:04:22,650 --> 00:04:20,459 the mission alright so jumping right in 89 00:04:24,270 --> 00:04:22,660 if you have questions for these ladies 90 00:04:25,860 --> 00:04:24,280 you feel free to ask those live in the 91 00:04:27,870 --> 00:04:25,870 chat window subscribe to our channel 92 00:04:30,030 --> 00:04:27,880 well we have one more episode tomorrow 93 00:04:31,790 --> 00:04:30,040 for the rest of our miss week but let's 94 00:04:34,710 --> 00:04:31,800 go back Laura actually tell me about 95 00:04:36,659 --> 00:04:34,720 testing for Orion obviously there is a 96 00:04:39,090 --> 00:04:36,669 lot of systems thinking about sustaining 97 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:39,100 human life out in the vacuum of space so 98 00:04:48,540 --> 00:04:42,690 do you all do all of testing for brain 99 00:04:50,730 --> 00:04:48,550 yeah so kind of the day in the life in 100 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:50,740 order to implement a lot of this testing 101 00:04:54,450 --> 00:04:52,690 that we're doing there's a lot of 102 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:54,460 planning that's involved that you need 103 00:04:59,159 --> 00:04:57,010 to do first most of our days are working 104 00:05:01,020 --> 00:04:59,169 with our subject matter experts for the 105 00:05:03,510 --> 00:05:01,030 specific systems we're testing and 106 00:05:06,690 --> 00:05:03,520 creating those detailed plans and 107 00:05:09,270 --> 00:05:06,700 procedures and test profiles that we 108 00:05:11,610 --> 00:05:09,280 need to do to ensure that we don't harm 109 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:11,620 the vehicle in any way when our program 110 00:05:14,820 --> 00:05:13,450 has actually built another test article 111 00:05:17,790 --> 00:05:14,830 which is called the structural test 112 00:05:20,010 --> 00:05:17,800 article also known as the STA and we're 113 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:20,020 ever use that to perform a lot of ours 114 00:05:25,650 --> 00:05:23,289 some level qualification testing this 115 00:05:27,869 --> 00:05:25,660 was done in order to both save on time 116 00:05:31,050 --> 00:05:27,879 in work could do multiple testing at the 117 00:05:33,450 --> 00:05:31,060 in parallel and also lower the risk of 118 00:05:37,559 --> 00:05:33,460 causing damage to the flight article and 119 00:05:41,159 --> 00:05:37,569 I do have a video of one of the testing 120 00:05:46,170 --> 00:05:41,169 that we do with sta if you can bring 121 00:05:50,309 --> 00:05:46,180 that with that video up essentially this 122 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:50,319 is with the FDA us simulating before 123 00:05:54,180 --> 00:05:52,690 they cover being jettisoned in order to 124 00:05:56,550 --> 00:05:54,190 deploy the parachutes that we're going 125 00:05:58,170 --> 00:05:56,560 to be using for descent here we're 126 00:05:59,909 --> 00:05:58,180 really looking for those vehicle 127 00:06:02,490 --> 00:05:59,919 responses and seeing if there's any 128 00:06:04,290 --> 00:06:02,500 negative impacts of the vehicle and we 129 00:06:06,149 --> 00:06:04,300 are using the sta instead of the fly 130 00:06:08,610 --> 00:06:06,159 article because if there are any 131 00:06:09,990 --> 00:06:08,620 negative responses we're not harming the 132 00:06:14,370 --> 00:06:10,000 vehicle that's going to be going into 133 00:06:16,770 --> 00:06:14,380 space alright and Susan tell me about 134 00:06:17,999 --> 00:06:16,780 your job what's what's exciting about it 135 00:06:20,820 --> 00:06:18,009 and what's challenging about it 136 00:06:25,350 --> 00:06:20,830 obviously making a spaceship ready for 137 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:25,360 humans is no small task right there's a 138 00:06:29,790 --> 00:06:28,090 lot of exciting parts of my job the 139 00:06:31,980 --> 00:06:29,800 really neat part of my job is the cause 140 00:06:34,140 --> 00:06:31,990 were so focused on the human integration 141 00:06:36,180 --> 00:06:34,150 into the vehicle the vast majority of 142 00:06:38,610 --> 00:06:36,190 our work does interact directly with the 143 00:06:39,899 --> 00:06:38,620 astronauts so we spend a lot of time 144 00:06:42,749 --> 00:06:39,909 working with them getting their input 145 00:06:45,779 --> 00:06:42,759 their experience and ensuring that the 146 00:06:47,909 --> 00:06:45,789 hardware design really meets their needs 147 00:06:49,879 --> 00:06:47,919 so it's it's a really fun and exciting 148 00:06:51,870 --> 00:06:49,889 job from an engineering integration 149 00:06:54,300 --> 00:06:51,880 perspective while still having a lot of 150 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:54,310 interaction with with the people that 151 00:06:58,980 --> 00:06:57,370 we're all focused on keeping safe it's 152 00:07:00,659 --> 00:06:58,990 also very rewarding because we feel like 153 00:07:02,070 --> 00:07:00,669 the decisions that were making the 154 00:07:03,719 --> 00:07:02,080 things that we're advocating for 155 00:07:06,059 --> 00:07:03,729 fighting for the things that we're 156 00:07:08,129 --> 00:07:06,069 testing are directly affecting the 157 00:07:09,330 --> 00:07:08,139 astronauts experience you see here on 158 00:07:11,700 --> 00:07:09,340 the screen some of the human-in-the-loop 159 00:07:14,070 --> 00:07:11,710 testing that we do this is a pretty 160 00:07:17,999 --> 00:07:14,080 common activity that we do where we 161 00:07:22,260 --> 00:07:18,009 bring astronauts into either a mock-up 162 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:22,270 or like a part path trainer and have 163 00:07:28,969 --> 00:07:24,610 them assess the design as the design 164 00:07:31,230 --> 00:07:28,979 progresses so that we can improve it and 165 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:31,240 enable them to be more productive in 166 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:37,920 awesome and so Lauren sorry about that 167 00:07:42,990 --> 00:07:40,810 coming back out so Lauren what does what 168 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:43,000 does it take to be a flight controller 169 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:46,330 obviously no small thing to train 170 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:48,130 astronauts I think a lot of times we 171 00:07:53,460 --> 00:07:50,650 think of astronauts as being one of the 172 00:07:56,070 --> 00:07:53,470 greatest most highly difficult jobs on 173 00:07:57,749 --> 00:07:56,080 earth or in space so what's that like to 174 00:08:01,050 --> 00:07:57,759 be the one to kind of help them learn 175 00:08:03,150 --> 00:08:01,060 what they do yeah thanks for that 176 00:08:04,980 --> 00:08:03,160 question not only to our flight 177 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:04,990 controllers helped to Train astronauts 178 00:08:09,689 --> 00:08:08,050 but we also support and command and 179 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:09,699 control the mission during the during 180 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:12,250 real time for Mission Control and the 181 00:08:16,499 --> 00:08:14,410 foundations of flight operations are the 182 00:08:18,210 --> 00:08:16,509 backbone of what it takes to be a flight 183 00:08:20,490 --> 00:08:18,220 controller for any human spaceflight 184 00:08:23,010 --> 00:08:20,500 mission including for Artemis missions 185 00:08:25,589 --> 00:08:23,020 these foundations establish a guideline 186 00:08:26,909 --> 00:08:25,599 for personal excellence and our flight 187 00:08:28,589 --> 00:08:26,919 controllers are demonstrating these 188 00:08:30,629 --> 00:08:28,599 every single day as they're supporting 189 00:08:32,909 --> 00:08:30,639 the mission both training the crew and 190 00:08:35,639 --> 00:08:32,919 from Mission Control and one I'd like to 191 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:35,649 talk about is competence being that 192 00:08:39,449 --> 00:08:37,330 there's no substitute for total 193 00:08:41,969 --> 00:08:39,459 preparation and complete dedication and 194 00:08:43,409 --> 00:08:41,979 I think that that sums up the impact of 195 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:43,419 what our flight controllers role is 196 00:08:47,340 --> 00:08:45,490 during the mission and the care that we 197 00:08:49,949 --> 00:08:47,350 take toward ensuring that our astronauts 198 00:08:51,300 --> 00:08:49,959 and our spacecraft state safe for 199 00:08:53,699 --> 00:08:51,310 Artemis missions we're currently 200 00:08:56,490 --> 00:08:53,709 simulating the various flight phases of 201 00:08:58,290 --> 00:08:56,500 the mission and all the conflicts tasks 202 00:09:00,300 --> 00:08:58,300 that we need the flight control team to 203 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:00,310 be ready to do to succeed during the 204 00:09:04,199 --> 00:09:02,170 mission and we practice all of the 205 00:09:06,150 --> 00:09:04,209 nominal that these are all of the 206 00:09:08,850 --> 00:09:06,160 expected activities and the off-nominal 207 00:09:10,889 --> 00:09:08,860 the unexpected scenarios that we think 208 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:10,899 could occur during the mission we 209 00:09:15,510 --> 00:09:12,610 practice working through the process of 210 00:09:17,370 --> 00:09:15,520 identifying failures troubleshooting the 211 00:09:20,579 --> 00:09:17,380 things that go wrong and then resolving 212 00:09:22,860 --> 00:09:20,589 the issues and we're also exerting all 213 00:09:24,290 --> 00:09:22,870 of the coordination that happens amongst 214 00:09:26,970 --> 00:09:24,300 the flight control team during these 215 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:26,980 simulations between them and the flight 216 00:09:31,380 --> 00:09:29,410 director and with the astronauts our 217 00:09:33,030 --> 00:09:31,390 goal is always to train like you fly 218 00:09:34,889 --> 00:09:33,040 that's something that we say a lot with 219 00:09:36,780 --> 00:09:34,899 the program and that's why these 220 00:09:39,150 --> 00:09:36,790 simulations are so important to our 221 00:09:40,829 --> 00:09:39,160 building the competence necessary that 222 00:09:44,790 --> 00:09:40,839 oath that the flight controllers will 223 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:44,800 need to support Artemis awesome cool so 224 00:09:47,389 --> 00:09:46,170 Laura I want to ask you 225 00:09:49,509 --> 00:09:47,399 about the integration to the space 226 00:09:52,129 --> 00:09:49,519 launch system obviously the Orion 227 00:09:53,540 --> 00:09:52,139 capsule holds the people but in order to 228 00:09:55,670 --> 00:09:53,550 get into space it needs the space launch 229 00:09:57,410 --> 00:09:55,680 system so what's that process been like 230 00:10:02,449 --> 00:09:57,420 to not only make it self-sustaining but 231 00:10:07,009 --> 00:10:02,459 also to work well with the rocket right 232 00:10:09,500 --> 00:10:07,019 so we've actually with our sta article 233 00:10:11,990 --> 00:10:09,510 that that we have we've we've gone 234 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:12,000 through and made it at the interface 235 00:10:17,660 --> 00:10:14,730 between the two and seeing what it takes 236 00:10:20,689 --> 00:10:17,670 to to perform that integration and also 237 00:10:22,639 --> 00:10:20,699 we've gone through modal testing which 238 00:10:25,850 --> 00:10:22,649 is where you're applying loads and seen 239 00:10:29,329 --> 00:10:25,860 at those interfaces what we're 240 00:10:31,069 --> 00:10:29,339 experiencing to ensure that there aren't 241 00:10:33,410 --> 00:10:31,079 going to be any issues when it comes for 242 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:33,420 the real-time day of launch how we 243 00:10:37,579 --> 00:10:35,250 actually integrate the vehicle is going 244 00:10:39,470 --> 00:10:37,589 to be out at the Kennedy Space Center we 245 00:10:41,990 --> 00:10:39,480 have our Vehicle Assembly Building which 246 00:10:44,060 --> 00:10:42,000 is also known as the VAB and this is 247 00:10:46,009 --> 00:10:44,070 where the launch vehicle SLS comes in 248 00:10:48,470 --> 00:10:46,019 with the rhein spacecraft and gets 249 00:10:51,560 --> 00:10:48,480 integrated at that interface and I think 250 00:10:55,069 --> 00:10:51,570 you have here's the mobile launcher and 251 00:10:57,860 --> 00:10:55,079 the the VAB there's also with the SLS 252 00:11:00,769 --> 00:10:57,870 the breakdown of the of the boosters 253 00:11:04,610 --> 00:11:00,779 core stage yeah this one of the booster 254 00:11:06,680 --> 00:11:04,620 core stage and you see the the Orion 255 00:11:08,389 --> 00:11:06,690 stage adaptor in the middle that's 256 00:11:12,019 --> 00:11:08,399 really where Orion's gonna integrate 257 00:11:13,579 --> 00:11:12,029 there and we have about 360 fasteners 258 00:11:15,199 --> 00:11:13,589 that we're going to use to make that 259 00:11:17,930 --> 00:11:15,209 interface and ensure it's a good 260 00:11:20,269 --> 00:11:17,940 connection and then once we stack it in 261 00:11:22,519 --> 00:11:20,279 that and create that integrated vehicle 262 00:11:25,069 --> 00:11:22,529 we'll go through a series of testing in 263 00:11:27,500 --> 00:11:25,079 the VAB and out at the pad to ensure it 264 00:11:29,569 --> 00:11:27,510 works together us end to end to end 265 00:11:31,189 --> 00:11:29,579 across that vehicle and once after all 266 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:31,199 that's completed then we'll roll out for 267 00:11:35,660 --> 00:11:32,970 launch awesome 268 00:11:38,150 --> 00:11:35,670 so Susan what is the what's the plan 269 00:11:42,470 --> 00:11:38,160 forward obviously the first flight 270 00:11:44,509 --> 00:11:42,480 Orion is called Artemis one so that'll 271 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:44,519 happen next year and that's actually an 272 00:11:48,620 --> 00:11:46,050 uncrewed flight like you mentioned 273 00:11:50,449 --> 00:11:48,630 that's to be sure all of our systems are 274 00:11:53,180 --> 00:11:50,459 in great working order and ready for us 275 00:11:55,939 --> 00:11:53,190 to be able to fly a crew safely then our 276 00:11:59,900 --> 00:11:55,949 first crewed flight is Artemis ooh so 277 00:12:02,060 --> 00:11:59,910 that'll be in the 2023 timeframe 278 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:02,070 we'll be flying four crew members around 279 00:12:07,010 --> 00:12:05,610 the moon and a lunar flyby flight and of 280 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:07,020 course we're turning them safely to 281 00:12:10,730 --> 00:12:08,610 earth and all of that is in preparation 282 00:12:13,910 --> 00:12:10,740 for Artemis 3 which will be the next 283 00:12:16,580 --> 00:12:13,920 flight which is the flight where we will 284 00:12:20,330 --> 00:12:16,590 be putting boots on the moon delivering 285 00:12:22,460 --> 00:12:20,340 the first woman and the next man back to 286 00:12:25,220 --> 00:12:22,470 the surface of the Moon and that should 287 00:12:27,020 --> 00:12:25,230 be in the 2024 timeframe super exciting 288 00:12:29,900 --> 00:12:27,030 so we're bad time here so Lauren last 289 00:12:31,910 --> 00:12:29,910 question for you what are the goals for 290 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:31,920 these future missions just as you all 291 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:34,770 are working on training the astronauts 292 00:12:38,330 --> 00:12:35,370 to be ready 293 00:12:40,370 --> 00:12:38,340 what's that vision for the activity of 294 00:12:46,010 --> 00:12:40,380 the astronauts as they go out to the 295 00:12:48,560 --> 00:12:46,020 moon and beyond yeah sure so when it 296 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:48,570 comes to training astronauts that's a 297 00:12:54,620 --> 00:12:50,250 really important part of what we're 298 00:12:56,300 --> 00:12:54,630 looking for to four to do and we develop 299 00:12:58,370 --> 00:12:56,310 special capabilities in all of our 300 00:13:00,560 --> 00:12:58,380 training facilities to mimic what it's 301 00:13:03,170 --> 00:13:00,570 like for the crew how it will be for 302 00:13:05,060 --> 00:13:03,180 them in space and depending on what kind 303 00:13:08,180 --> 00:13:05,070 of things are trying to Train we utilize 304 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:08,190 different facilities to do that so we 305 00:13:11,870 --> 00:13:10,170 have an Orion capsule mock-up that I 306 00:13:13,820 --> 00:13:11,880 think you had a picture of the crew 307 00:13:16,010 --> 00:13:13,830 inside and that's inside of our 308 00:13:18,170 --> 00:13:16,020 spaceflight vehicle mock-up facility and 309 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:18,180 we use that to train the current 310 00:13:21,170 --> 00:13:19,770 specific tasks that they're going to 311 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:21,180 need to do during the mission like 312 00:13:25,370 --> 00:13:23,850 student training in their entry suits 313 00:13:27,530 --> 00:13:25,380 that's a picture of those orange suits 314 00:13:29,150 --> 00:13:27,540 right there getting into the vehicle on 315 00:13:30,680 --> 00:13:29,160 launch day and getting out of their 316 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:30,690 slips and stowing them after the 317 00:13:34,190 --> 00:13:32,610 translunar injection burn that's the 318 00:13:36,410 --> 00:13:34,200 burn that's gonna take us to the moon 319 00:13:39,110 --> 00:13:36,420 flight operations also trains the 320 00:13:41,210 --> 00:13:39,120 astronauts in that same mock-up on 321 00:13:44,540 --> 00:13:41,220 housekeeping food preparation and 322 00:13:46,580 --> 00:13:44,550 exercise and that's where some of the 323 00:13:48,500 --> 00:13:46,590 roles of flight operations overlap with 324 00:13:50,870 --> 00:13:48,510 Susan's organization as we work together 325 00:13:52,370 --> 00:13:50,880 to make sure that all of that works for 326 00:13:54,860 --> 00:13:52,380 the crew and that they're safe doing all 327 00:13:58,340 --> 00:13:54,870 of those things and we're also 328 00:14:00,890 --> 00:13:58,350 developing a Orion crew station we're 329 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:00,900 gonna use that to help astronauts learn 330 00:14:05,330 --> 00:14:03,330 how to operate Orion specifically 331 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:05,340 training them to execute the procedures 332 00:14:10,310 --> 00:14:08,130 for navigation and maneuvers rendezvous 333 00:14:12,170 --> 00:14:10,320 and docking and the astronauts will 334 00:14:13,670 --> 00:14:12,180 interact with the flight software that 335 00:14:15,980 --> 00:14:13,680 works just like how 336 00:14:17,900 --> 00:14:15,990 it will on-the-fly beautiful we also 337 00:14:19,670 --> 00:14:17,910 will perform integrated training when 338 00:14:21,590 --> 00:14:19,680 the astronauts are in the crew station 339 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:21,600 with our flight control team running 340 00:14:26,150 --> 00:14:23,130 through those simulations that I talked 341 00:14:28,430 --> 00:14:26,160 about in an earlier question yeah so 342 00:14:30,740 --> 00:14:28,440 much to do obviously a lot of really 343 00:14:32,660 --> 00:14:30,750 interesting amazing things that have to 344 00:14:34,460 --> 00:14:32,670 happen kind of herelet heralding back to 345 00:14:36,079 --> 00:14:34,470 the Apollo program with a lot of those 346 00:14:38,210 --> 00:14:36,089 things you mentioned like translunar 347 00:14:40,790 --> 00:14:38,220 injections and docking and rendezvous 348 00:14:42,079 --> 00:14:40,800 those kinds of things on-orbit ladies I 349 00:14:43,579 --> 00:14:42,089 know you could talk for days on this 350 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:43,589 stuff appreciate you and all of your 351 00:14:46,639 --> 00:14:45,570 your work and your team's work but 352 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:46,649 that's all the time we have for today so 353 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:51,290 thanks for being here Thank You Joshua 354 00:14:56,210 --> 00:14:53,970 awesome this is gonna be it for us today 355 00:14:57,829 --> 00:14:56,220 check us out tomorrow for our final 356 00:14:59,960 --> 00:14:57,839 artemis week's show and i want to remind
