1
00:00:04,820 --> 00:00:03,169
well thank you Marie I know there's a

2
00:00:07,190 --> 00:00:04,830
lot of disappointment today the weather

3
00:00:09,350 --> 00:00:07,200
got us but I also want to say this was

4
00:00:11,870 --> 00:00:09,360
really it was a great day for NASA it

5
00:00:14,390 --> 00:00:11,880
was a great day for SpaceX I think our

6
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:14,400
teams worked together in a really

7
00:00:20,630 --> 00:00:17,850
impressive way making good decisions all

8
00:00:23,450 --> 00:00:20,640
along so here in this particular case we

9
00:00:25,340 --> 00:00:23,460
had just simply too much electricity in

10
00:00:27,109 --> 00:00:25,350
the atmosphere there wasn't really a

11
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:27,119
lightning storm or anything like that

12
00:00:31,669 --> 00:00:29,130
but there was a concern that if we did

13
00:00:34,250 --> 00:00:31,679
launch it could actually trigger

14
00:00:34,970 --> 00:00:34,260
lightning and so we made the right

15
00:00:36,830 --> 00:00:34,980
decision

16
00:00:39,380 --> 00:00:36,840
we had the parameter set ahead of time

17
00:00:42,110 --> 00:00:39,390
the team's work together and in the end

18
00:00:44,420 --> 00:00:42,120
the right decision was made I will tell

19
00:00:45,709 --> 00:00:44,430
you I've done a lot of interviews over

20
00:00:47,990 --> 00:00:45,719
the last two days and in those

21
00:00:50,930 --> 00:00:48,000
interviews I get asked over and over

22
00:00:52,670 --> 00:00:50,940
again is there undue pressure here

23
00:00:54,470 --> 00:00:52,680
people say to me with all of the

24
00:00:57,229 --> 00:00:54,480
attention of the world on this launch

25
00:01:00,229 --> 00:00:57,239
with all of the VIPs coming are you

26
00:01:03,860 --> 00:01:00,239
gonna feel pressure on this launch and I

27
00:01:06,289 --> 00:01:03,870
will tell you I I've told you know our

28
00:01:08,719 --> 00:01:06,299
teams under no circumstances should

29
00:01:11,929 --> 00:01:08,729
anybody feel pressure if we are not

30
00:01:15,140 --> 00:01:11,939
ready to go we simply do not go and I

31
00:01:17,030 --> 00:01:15,150
will tell you I am proud so proud of our

32
00:01:19,700 --> 00:01:17,040
teams working together to make the right

33
00:01:22,370 --> 00:01:19,710
decision in this particular case we have

34
00:01:24,770 --> 00:01:22,380
a lot to look forward to in just a few

35
00:01:27,380 --> 00:01:24,780
short days on Saturday Saturday

36
00:01:28,100 --> 00:01:27,390
afternoon we're gonna do it again here's

37
00:01:30,830 --> 00:01:28,110
what we know

38
00:01:33,109 --> 00:01:30,840
we are gonna launch American astronauts

39
00:01:35,990 --> 00:01:33,119
on American Rockets from American soil

40
00:01:37,730 --> 00:01:36,000
we're gonna do that we're very close I

41
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:37,740
also want to say that this was an

42
00:01:43,700 --> 00:01:41,610
important milestone just today we did a

43
00:01:46,340 --> 00:01:43,710
wet dress rehearsal we haven't done a

44
00:01:49,039 --> 00:01:46,350
wet dress rehearsal with our astronauts

45
00:01:51,109 --> 00:01:49,049
full gear before we've done a dry dress

46
00:01:54,679 --> 00:01:51,119
rehearsal now we've done a dress a wet

47
00:01:57,319 --> 00:01:54,689
dress so we learn a lot every time we do

48
00:01:59,270 --> 00:01:57,329
these things this is no different and we

49
00:02:01,999 --> 00:01:59,280
get a lot of great data from from doing

50
00:02:04,730 --> 00:02:02,009
what we just did so today was a good day

51
00:02:05,450 --> 00:02:04,740
for NASA it was a good day for for

52
00:02:08,089 --> 00:02:05,460
SpaceX

53
00:02:10,580 --> 00:02:08,099
and we've got a lot to look forward to

54
00:02:13,430 --> 00:02:10,590
so I want to say congratulations to both

55
00:02:13,970 --> 00:02:13,440
of the teams and let's go let's go get

56
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:13,980
