1 00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:13,120 These rockets do not come fully assembled. When the pieces arrive here by boat, by barge, by\h\h 2 00:00:13,120 --> 00:00:16,080 train and by car, we're then in charge\h\h 3 00:00:16,080 --> 00:00:19,774 of the transportation of how it gets from point A to point B.\h\h 4 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:27,520 Structural and mechanical engineering-wise, we're\h\h 5 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,618 in charge of whenever you mate it and stack it. 6 00:00:30,618 --> 00:00:31,785 It's the first time we're putting it together. 7 00:00:32,191 --> 00:00:33,615 Ready to do it. 8 00:00:33,785 --> 00:00:35,470 Let's put her up. 9 00:00:35,470 --> 00:00:43,486 It’s a system that uses solid rocket motors, so I’m expecting to feel that roar and trembling in my chest. 10 00:00:43,643 --> 00:00:46,753 Just like shuttle, but actually bigger solid rocket motors 11 00:00:46,753 --> 00:00:48,634 in that we have one more segment. 12 00:00:48,634 --> 00:00:54,640 It's my second time around. I was shuttle, so this is pretty cool to see it happen once again. \h 13 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,640 Everybody is a professional. 14 00:00:58,350 --> 00:01:03,858 And when it comes time for everbody to come together, everybody knows what they’re doing. 15 00:01:12,244 --> 00:01:17,429 So from here at the RPSF, we'll move to the VAB for processing boosters there. 16 00:01:17,429 --> 00:01:22,000 and stacking the rest of the segments on top of the aft assembly that you see here. 17 00:01:22,406 --> 00:01:26,545 Once we get into the VAB, we’ll start our stack on the mobile launcher platform. 18 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:31,920 I can't wait until we get over to the VAB\h because that means we are one step closer\h\h 19 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,960 to our goal and that's to get boots on the Moon\h\h 20 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,305 and Mars and beyond. 21 00:01:40,582 --> 00:01:42,844 We're explorers baby!
