1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:02:15,370 I 2 00:02:15,370 --> 00:02:15,380 3 00:02:15,380 --> 00:02:21,650 you 4 00:02:21,650 --> 00:02:21,660 5 00:02:21,660 --> 00:02:23,790 that gives you sort of a quick rundown 6 00:02:23,790 --> 00:02:23,800 that gives you sort of a quick rundown 7 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:28,200 that gives you sort of a quick rundown on the payload and what we anticipate to 8 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:28,210 on the payload and what we anticipate to 9 00:02:28,210 --> 00:02:35,850 on the payload and what we anticipate to happen this morning this vehicle those 10 00:02:35,850 --> 00:02:35,860 happen this morning this vehicle those 11 00:02:35,860 --> 00:02:37,350 happen this morning this vehicle those of you they haven't seen it before it 12 00:02:37,350 --> 00:02:37,360 of you they haven't seen it before it 13 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,100 of you they haven't seen it before it gets off the rail very fast it's not 14 00:02:41,100 --> 00:02:41,110 gets off the rail very fast it's not 15 00:02:41,110 --> 00:02:44,130 gets off the rail very fast it's not quite like watching a liquid one of the 16 00:02:44,130 --> 00:02:44,140 quite like watching a liquid one of the 17 00:02:44,140 --> 00:02:47,570 quite like watching a liquid one of the NASA launches that sort of climb out 18 00:02:47,570 --> 00:02:47,580 NASA launches that sort of climb out 19 00:02:47,580 --> 00:02:50,820 NASA launches that sort of climb out reasonably slowly this this one gets off 20 00:02:50,820 --> 00:02:50,830 reasonably slowly this this one gets off 21 00:02:50,830 --> 00:02:52,740 reasonably slowly this this one gets off like a missile because that's what the 22 00:02:52,740 --> 00:02:52,750 like a missile because that's what the 23 00:02:52,750 --> 00:02:56,430 like a missile because that's what the first stage basically is you'll see the 24 00:02:56,430 --> 00:02:56,440 first stage basically is you'll see the 25 00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:01,080 first stage basically is you'll see the first stage put out the order of six 26 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:01,090 first stage put out the order of six 27 00:03:01,090 --> 00:03:04,230 first stage put out the order of six seconds then you'll see our coast face 28 00:03:04,230 --> 00:03:04,240 seconds then you'll see our coast face 29 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:08,130 seconds then you'll see our coast face and then you will see the second stage 30 00:03:08,130 --> 00:03:08,140 and then you will see the second stage 31 00:03:08,140 --> 00:03:13,910 and then you will see the second stage ignite after we have reached the right 32 00:03:13,910 --> 00:03:13,920 ignite after we have reached the right 33 00:03:13,920 --> 00:03:18,150 ignite after we have reached the right dynamic pressures to do that the 34 00:03:18,150 --> 00:03:18,160 dynamic pressures to do that the 35 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,400 dynamic pressures to do that the sustainer motor or second stage is a 36 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:20,410 sustainer motor or second stage is a 37 00:03:20,410 --> 00:03:22,979 sustainer motor or second stage is a fairly long long time so you'll see that 38 00:03:22,979 --> 00:03:22,989 fairly long long time so you'll see that 39 00:03:22,989 --> 00:03:26,460 fairly long long time so you'll see that climb out as as the plume of the vehicle 40 00:03:26,460 --> 00:03:26,470 climb out as as the plume of the vehicle 41 00:03:26,470 --> 00:03:29,580 climb out as as the plume of the vehicle claims out through any wind shears don't 42 00:03:29,580 --> 00:03:29,590 claims out through any wind shears don't 43 00:03:29,590 --> 00:03:31,229 claims out through any wind shears don't don't think there are too many today 44 00:03:31,229 --> 00:03:31,239 don't think there are too many today 45 00:03:31,239 --> 00:03:33,810 don't think there are too many today you'll see the plume sort of scatter 46 00:03:33,810 --> 00:03:33,820 you'll see the plume sort of scatter 47 00:03:33,820 --> 00:03:35,550 you'll see the plume sort of scatter around a little bit that's not the 48 00:03:35,550 --> 00:03:35,560 around a little bit that's not the 49 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,590 around a little bit that's not the vehicle maneuvering like that the 50 00:03:37,590 --> 00:03:37,600 vehicle maneuvering like that the 51 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,750 vehicle maneuvering like that the vehicle hopefully is going straight down 52 00:03:39,750 --> 00:03:39,760 vehicle hopefully is going straight down 53 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,820 vehicle hopefully is going straight down range so that's just the plume being 54 00:03:41,820 --> 00:03:41,830 range so that's just the plume being 55 00:03:41,830 --> 00:03:45,900 range so that's just the plume being hashed about when you who is doing the 56 00:03:45,900 --> 00:03:45,910 hashed about when you who is doing the 57 00:03:45,910 --> 00:03:50,970 hashed about when you who is doing the count for us she give us the plus count 58 00:03:50,970 --> 00:03:50,980 count for us she give us the plus count 59 00:03:50,980 --> 00:03:55,620 count for us she give us the plus count and a T plus 12 seconds Asuma announce 60 00:03:55,620 --> 00:03:55,630 and a T plus 12 seconds Asuma announce 61 00:03:55,630 --> 00:03:58,800 and a T plus 12 seconds Asuma announce second stage ignition that's an analogy 62 00:03:58,800 --> 00:03:58,810 second stage ignition that's an analogy 63 00:03:58,810 --> 00:04:02,340 second stage ignition that's an analogy of three point seven five miles and then 64 00:04:02,340 --> 00:04:02,350 of three point seven five miles and then 65 00:04:02,350 --> 00:04:05,490 of three point seven five miles and then I'd be a plus count t plus 18 that will 66 00:04:05,490 --> 00:04:05,500 I'd be a plus count t plus 18 that will 67 00:04:05,500 --> 00:04:09,210 I'd be a plus count t plus 18 that will hear that means the end of the s 19 68 00:04:09,210 --> 00:04:09,220 hear that means the end of the s 19 69 00:04:09,220 --> 00:04:11,640 hear that means the end of the s 19 boosts guidance system that occurs at 70 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:11,650 boosts guidance system that occurs at 71 00:04:11,650 --> 00:04:15,750 boosts guidance system that occurs at about six miles altitude t plus 44 is 72 00:04:15,750 --> 00:04:15,760 about six miles altitude t plus 44 is 73 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,270 about six miles altitude t plus 44 is the max count that's the end of the 74 00:04:18,270 --> 00:04:18,280 the max count that's the end of the 75 00:04:18,280 --> 00:04:21,390 the max count that's the end of the second stage ignition like a second 76 00:04:21,390 --> 00:04:21,400 second stage ignition like a second 77 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,150 second stage ignition like a second stage burn and that's about 30 miles 78 00:04:24,150 --> 00:04:24,160 stage burn and that's about 30 miles 79 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:29,279 stage burn and that's about 30 miles altitude t plus 52 we have the payload d 80 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:29,289 altitude t plus 52 we have the payload d 81 00:04:29,289 --> 00:04:30,550 altitude t plus 52 we have the payload d spend that means the 82 00:04:30,550 --> 00:04:30,560 spend that means the 83 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,520 spend that means the yeah vehicle that were spinning up due 84 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:33,530 yeah vehicle that were spinning up due 85 00:04:33,530 --> 00:04:36,310 yeah vehicle that were spinning up due to the bin ken hangul set in to give us 86 00:04:36,310 --> 00:04:36,320 to the bin ken hangul set in to give us 87 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,159 to the bin ken hangul set in to give us a spin stabilized vehicle we have of 88 00:04:39,159 --> 00:04:39,169 a spin stabilized vehicle we have of 89 00:04:39,169 --> 00:04:41,800 a spin stabilized vehicle we have of that we call a yo-yo d spin which is 90 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:41,810 that we call a yo-yo d spin which is 91 00:04:41,810 --> 00:04:43,450 that we call a yo-yo d spin which is simply some weights that come out on 92 00:04:43,450 --> 00:04:43,460 simply some weights that come out on 93 00:04:43,460 --> 00:04:47,650 simply some weights that come out on long wires much like a a ice skater puts 94 00:04:47,650 --> 00:04:47,660 long wires much like a a ice skater puts 95 00:04:47,660 --> 00:04:50,950 long wires much like a a ice skater puts our arms out to stop the spin when she 96 00:04:50,950 --> 00:04:50,960 our arms out to stop the spin when she 97 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:52,930 our arms out to stop the spin when she spent it on the ice it changes the 98 00:04:52,930 --> 00:04:52,940 spent it on the ice it changes the 99 00:04:52,940 --> 00:04:55,390 spent it on the ice it changes the moment of inertia in technical terms and 100 00:04:55,390 --> 00:04:55,400 moment of inertia in technical terms and 101 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,520 moment of inertia in technical terms and then as she puts our arms down she'll 102 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:57,530 then as she puts our arms down she'll 103 00:04:57,530 --> 00:05:00,460 then as she puts our arms down she'll spend up but we will put this D spend yo 104 00:05:00,460 --> 00:05:00,470 spend up but we will put this D spend yo 105 00:05:00,470 --> 00:05:02,680 spend up but we will put this D spend yo yo D spin system out and that 106 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:02,690 yo D spin system out and that 107 00:05:02,690 --> 00:05:04,480 yo D spin system out and that essentially takes all the spin right out 108 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:04,490 essentially takes all the spin right out 109 00:05:04,490 --> 00:05:07,330 essentially takes all the spin right out of the vehicle to make us ready to enter 110 00:05:07,330 --> 00:05:07,340 of the vehicle to make us ready to enter 111 00:05:07,340 --> 00:05:09,520 of the vehicle to make us ready to enter the microgravity condition for the 112 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:09,530 the microgravity condition for the 113 00:05:09,530 --> 00:05:14,200 the microgravity condition for the experiments we will get a pair of 114 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:14,210 experiments we will get a pair of 115 00:05:14,210 --> 00:05:17,620 experiments we will get a pair of separation at t + 58 that's a 48 116 00:05:17,620 --> 00:05:17,630 separation at t + 58 that's a 48 117 00:05:17,630 --> 00:05:19,840 separation at t + 58 that's a 48 nautical miles or excuse me not nautical 118 00:05:19,840 --> 00:05:19,850 nautical miles or excuse me not nautical 119 00:05:19,850 --> 00:05:23,050 nautical miles or excuse me not nautical miles miles t plus 7 affair we have the 120 00:05:23,050 --> 00:05:23,060 miles miles t plus 7 affair we have the 121 00:05:23,060 --> 00:05:25,330 miles miles t plus 7 affair we have the beginning of the microgravity period and 122 00:05:25,330 --> 00:05:25,340 beginning of the microgravity period and 123 00:05:25,340 --> 00:05:29,260 beginning of the microgravity period and at t-plus two hundred ninety seconds we 124 00:05:29,260 --> 00:05:29,270 at t-plus two hundred ninety seconds we 125 00:05:29,270 --> 00:05:33,190 at t-plus two hundred ninety seconds we have a pudgy which is actually 198 miles 126 00:05:33,190 --> 00:05:33,200 have a pudgy which is actually 198 miles 127 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,830 have a pudgy which is actually 198 miles for this mission but close enough to 128 00:05:35,830 --> 00:05:35,840 for this mission but close enough to 129 00:05:35,840 --> 00:05:40,330 for this mission but close enough to turn about 200 miles out you t plus 5 06 130 00:05:40,330 --> 00:05:40,340 turn about 200 miles out you t plus 5 06 131 00:05:40,340 --> 00:05:44,260 turn about 200 miles out you t plus 5 06 seconds the end of microgravity at 68 132 00:05:44,260 --> 00:05:44,270 seconds the end of

00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,100 secretion or changes in hormone response while these might be quite unimportant 300 00:10:57,100 --> 00:10:57,110 while these might be quite unimportant 301 00:10:57,110 --> 00:10:58,990 while these might be quite unimportant one really doesn't know the importance 302 00:10:58,990 --> 00:10:59,000 one really doesn't know the importance 303 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:00,850 one really doesn't know the importance of these over some long-term experience 304 00:11:00,850 --> 00:11:00,860 of these over some long-term experience 305 00:11:00,860 --> 00:11:03,430 of these over some long-term experience in the microgravity arena the other 306 00:11:03,430 --> 00:11:03,440 in the microgravity arena the other 307 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,530 in the microgravity arena the other intriguing part is these problems that 308 00:11:05,530 --> 00:11:05,540 intriguing part is these problems that 309 00:11:05,540 --> 00:11:07,210 intriguing part is these problems that are seen in microgravity are also very 310 00:11:07,210 --> 00:11:07,220 are seen in microgravity are also very 311 00:11:07,220 --> 00:11:09,370 are seen in microgravity are also very clearly related in our minds at least 312 00:11:09,370 --> 00:11:09,380 clearly related in our minds at least 313 00:11:09,380 --> 00:11:11,740 clearly related in our minds at least two general unsolved Aziz states on 314 00:11:11,740 --> 00:11:11,750 two general unsolved Aziz states on 315 00:11:11,750 --> 00:11:13,960 two general unsolved Aziz states on earth such as cystic fibrosis diabetes 316 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:13,970 earth such as cystic fibrosis diabetes 317 00:11:13,970 --> 00:11:15,940 earth such as cystic fibrosis diabetes and so forth so the question for us 318 00:11:15,940 --> 00:11:15,950 and so forth so the question for us 319 00:11:15,950 --> 00:11:17,830 and so forth so the question for us became one of can we get double money 320 00:11:17,830 --> 00:11:17,840 became one of can we get double money 321 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:19,960 became one of can we get double money out of our experiments here where we can 322 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:19,970 out of our experiments here where we can 323 00:11:19,970 --> 00:11:21,760 out of our experiments here where we can use micro gravity as a test tube in 324 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:21,770 use micro gravity as a test tube in 325 00:11:21,770 --> 00:11:23,380 use micro gravity as a test tube in order to learn something about these 326 00:11:23,380 --> 00:11:23,390 order to learn something about these 327 00:11:23,390 --> 00:11:25,840 order to learn something about these important diseases in order to do that 328 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:25,850 important diseases in order to do that 329 00:11:25,850 --> 00:11:27,250 important diseases in order to do that we have to sample a microgravity 330 00:11:27,250 --> 00:11:27,260 we have to sample a microgravity 331 00:11:27,260 --> 00:11:29,080 we have to sample a microgravity experience we have to learn something 332 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:29,090 experience we have to learn something 333 00:11:29,090 --> 00:11:31,450 experience we have to learn something then about the behavior of cells in this 334 00:11:31,450 --> 00:11:31,460 then about the behavior of cells in this 335 00:11:31,460 --> 00:11:33,670 then about the behavior of cells in this situation this is why we've constructed 336 00:11:33,670 --> 00:11:33,680 situation this is why we've constructed 337 00:11:33,680 --> 00:11:35,890 situation this is why we've constructed what we call the Penn State

is what we'll be flying in the concert pre-flight but we pick the 366 00:12:06,580 --> 00:12:06,590 concert pre-flight but we pick the 367 00:12:06,590 --> 00:12:09,210 concert pre-flight but we pick the chameleon skin and tadpole skin problem 368 00:12:09,210 --> 00:12:09,220 chameleon skin and tadpole skin problem 369 00:12:09,220 --> 00:12:11,350 chameleon skin and tadpole skin problem basically everyone seemed the color 370 00:12:11,350 --> 00:12:11,360 basically everyone seemed the color 371 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,420 basically everyone seemed the color change it occurs in chameleons they've 372 00:12:13,420 --> 00:12:13,430 change it occurs in chameleons they've 373 00:12:13,430 --> 00:12:15,220 change it occurs in chameleons they've may have seen the spot changes that 374 00:12:15,220 --> 00:12:15,230 may have seen the spot changes that 375 00:12:15,230 --> 00:12:18,310 may have seen the spot changes that occur in tadpoles these color changes 376 00:12:18,310 --> 00:12:18,320 occur in tadpoles these color changes 377 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,500 occur in tadpoles these color changes although they are very many are very 378 00:12:20,500 --> 00:12:20,510 although they are very many are very 379 00:12:20,510 --> 00:12:23,080 although they are very many are very similar in overall respects to much more 380 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:23,090 similar in overall respects to much more 381 00:12:23,090 --> 00:12:26,500 similar in overall respects to much more complex processes involved in humans now 382 00:12:26,500 --> 00:12:26,510 complex processes involved in humans now 383 00:12:26,510 --> 00:12:28,090 complex processes involved in humans now the value of these systems are the 384 00:12:28,090 --> 00:12:28,100 the value of these systems are the 385 00:12:28,100 --> 00:12:30,190 the value of these systems are the tissues are very robust they're easy for 386 00:12:30,190 --> 00:12:30,200 tissues are very robust they're easy for 387 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:31,840 tissues are very robust they're easy for us to prepare and we can do meaningful 388 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:31,850 us to prepare and we can do meaningful 389 00:12:31,850 --> 00:12:33,130 us to prepare and we can do meaningful experiments in this particular 390 00:12:33,130 --> 00:12:33,140 experiments in this particular 391 00:12:33,140 --> 00:12:35,110 experiments in this particular environment so what we're setting up 392 00:12:35,110 --> 00:12:35,120 environment so what we're setting up 393 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:37,810 environment so what we're setting up here is to test proof of principle the 394 00:12:37,810 --> 00:12:37,820 here is to test proof of principle the 395 00:12:37,820 --> 00:12:39,580 here is to test proof of principle the question we're trying to ask then is 396 00:12:39,580 --> 00:12:39,590 question we're trying to ask then is 397 00:12:39,590 --> 00:12:42,340 question we're trying to ask then is some place over 6.5 billion years of 398 00:12:42,340 --> 00:12:42,350 some place over 6.5 billion years of 399 00:12:42,350 --> 00:12:44,650 some place over 6.5 billion years of evolution cells have learned to handle 400 00:12:44,650 --> 00:12:44,660 evolution cells have learned to handle 401 00:12:44,660 --> 00:12:47,170 evolution cells have learned to handle gravity as a settling force within them 402 00:12:47,170 --> 00:12:47,180 gravity as a settling force within them 403 00:12:47,180 --> 00:12:50,350 gravity as a settling force within them and I've I have made use of that we 404 00:12:50,350 --> 00:12:50,360 and I've I have made use of that we 405 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:50,940 and I've I have made use of that we believe for 406 00:12:50,940 --> 00:12:50,950 believe for 407 00:12:50,950 --> 00:12:52,980 believe for other processes that are involved we're 408 00:12:52,980 --> 00:12:52,990 other processes that are involved we're 409 00:12:52,990 --> 00:12:55,200 other processes that are involved we're trying to ask simple questions like when 410 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:55,210 trying to ask simple questions like when 411 00:12:55,210 --> 00:12:57,360 trying to ask simple questions like when the chameleon kin goes into space and if 412 00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:57,370 the chameleon kin goes into space and if 413 00:12:57,370 --> 00:12:58,440 the chameleon kin goes into space and if it's challenged with an appropriate 414 00:12:58,440 --> 00:12:58,450 it's challenged with an appropriate 415 00:12:58,450 --> 00:13:00,900 it's challenged with an appropriate hormone does it change color in a manner 416 00:13:00,900 --> 00:13:00,910 hormone does it change color in a manner 417 00:13:00,910 --> 00:13:03,150 hormone does it change color in a manner that one would predict this is the 418 00:13:03,150 --> 00:13:03,160 that one would predict this is the 419 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:09,120 that one would predict this is the spirit that we're going to follow as the 420 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:09,130 spirit that we're going to follow as the 421 00:13:09,130 --> 00:13:11,780 spirit that we're going to follow as the payload integrators for consort three 422 00:13:11,780 --> 00:13:11,790 payload integrators for consort three 423 00:13:11,790 --> 00:13:14,120 payload integrators for consort three mcdonnell douglas has a number of 424 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:14,130 mcdonnell douglas has a number of 425 00:13:14,130 --> 00:13:17,550 mcdonnell douglas has a number of responsibilities we've worked on this 426 00:13:17,550 --> 00:13:17,560 responsibilities we've worked on this 427 00:13:17,560 --> 00:13:20,430 responsibilities we've worked on this particular payload for four months most 428 00:13:20,430 --> 00:13:20,440 particular payload for four months most 429 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,770 particular payload for four months most of that in Huntsville beginning with the 430 00:13:22,770 --> 00:13:22,780 of that in Huntsville beginning with the 431 00:13:22,780 --> 00:13:25,650 of that in Huntsville beginning with the understanding and the implementation of 432 00:13:25,650 --> 00:13:25,660 understanding and the implementation of 433 00:13:25,660 --> 00:13:28,110 understanding and the implementation of the experiment package requirements and 434 00:13:28,110 --> 00:13:28,120 the experiment package requirements and 435 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,710 the experiment package requirements and the build up and check out in integrated 436 00:13:31,710 --> 00:13:31,720 the build up and check out in integrated 437 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,410 the build up and check out in integrated testing of each of the experiments in 438 00:13:34,410 --> 00:13:34,420 testing of each of the experiments in 439 00:13:34,420 --> 00:13:37,410 testing of each of the experiments in the payload there are 12 experiments in 440 00:13:37,410 --> 00:13:37,420 the payload there are 12 experiments in 441 00:13:37,420 --> 00:13:39,300 the payload there are 12 experiments in there and several other pieces of 442 00:13:39,300 --> 00:13:39,310 there and several other pieces of 443 00:13:39,310 --> 00:13:42,600 there and several other pieces of supporting hardware accelerometers power 444 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:42,610 supporting hardware accelerometers power 445 00:13:42,610 --> 00:13:45,300 supporting hardware accelerometers power supplies power distribution systems 446 00:13:45,300 --> 00:13:45,310 supplies power distribution systems 447 00:13:45,310 --> 00:13:49,110 supplies power distribution systems computers accelerometers all these 448 00:13:49,110 --> 00:13:49,120 computers accelerometers all these 449 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,780 computers accelerometers all these things have to work together one hundred 450 00:13:51,780 --> 00:13:51,790 things have to work together one hundred 451 00:13:51,790 --> 00:13:54,860 things have to work together one hundred percent to to conduct the mission and 452 00:13:54,860 --> 00:13:54,870 percent to to conduct the mission and 453 00:13:54,870 --> 00:14:02,180 percent to to conduct the mission and our job is to see that that happens 454 00:14:02,180 --> 00:14:02,190 455 00:14:02,190 --> 00:14:18,810 seemed duty well 456 00:14:18,810 --> 00:14:18,820 457 00:14:18,820 --> 00:14:21,490 like it beats probably kept you up to 458 00:14:21,490 --> 00:14:21,500 like it beats probably kept you up to 459 00:14:21,500 --> 00:14:23,410 like it beats probably kept you up to speed on what's happened here I don't 460 00:14:23,410 --> 00:14:23,420 speed on what's happened here I don't 461 00:14:23,420 --> 00:14:26,560 speed on what's happened here I don't know exactly we had a couple small 462 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:26,570 know exactly we had a couple small 463 00:14:26,570 --> 00:14:28,420 know exactly we had a couple small problems down Eric courts may have 10 464 00:14:28,420 --> 00:14:28,430 problems down Eric courts may have 10 465 00:14:28,430 --> 00:14:29,860 problems down Eric courts may have 10 minute old at the end which is a rage 466 00:14:29,860 --> 00:14:29,870 minute old at the end which is a rage 467 00:14:29,870 --> 00:14:32,740 minute old at the end which is a rage problem the radar went down and we 468 00:14:32,740 --> 00:14:32,750 problem the radar went down and we 469 00:14:32,750 --> 00:14:34,509 problem the radar went down and we finally got an alternate radar online 470 00:14:34,509 --> 00:14:34,519 finally got an alternate radar online 471 00:14:34,519 --> 00:14:39,610 finally got an alternate radar online and went ahead we also had a gyro 472 00:14:39,610 --> 00:14:39,620 and went ahead we also had a gyro 473 00:14:39,620 --> 00:14:44,920 and went ahead we also had a gyro problem again and we had a noise signal 474 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:44,930 problem again and we had a noise signal 475 00:14:44,930 --> 00:14:47,680 problem again and we had a noise signal at her pitch gyro and we scratched her 476 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:47,690 at her pitch gyro and we scratched her 477 00:14:47,690 --> 00:14:49,150 at her pitch gyro and we scratched her head pretty hard there for a while to 478 00:14:49,150 --> 00:14:49,160 head pretty hard there for a while to 479 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,069 head pretty hard there for a while to whether we should scrub or not mark 480 00:14:51,069 --> 00:14:51,079 whether we should scrub or not mark 481 00:14:51,079 --> 00:14:54,069 whether we should scrub or not mark ended up talking to the factory guys we 482 00:14:54,069 --> 00:14:54,079 ended up talking to the factory guys we 483 00:14:54,079 --> 00:14:55,720 ended up talking to the factory guys we consulted with NASA and finally 484 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:55,730 consulted with NASA and finally 485 00:14:55,730 --> 00:14:58,540 consulted with NASA and finally concluded that we could fly safely we 486 00:14:58,540 --> 00:14:58,550 concluded that we could fly safely we 487 00:14:58,550 --> 00:15:01,420 concluded that we could fly safely we did so all in all it looks like it's a 488 00:15:01,420 --> 00:15:01,430 did so all in all it looks like it's a 489 00:15:01,430 --> 00:15:02,500 did so all in all it looks like it's a good flight we don't know of any 490 00:15:02,500 --> 00:15:02,510 good flight we don't know of any 491 00:15:02,510 --> 00:15:04,300 good flight we don't know of any anomalies during flight at this point 492 00:15:04,300 --> 00:15:04,310 anomalies during flight at this point 493 00:15:04,310 --> 00:15:07,000 anomalies during flight at this point the vehicle and it bring the sand up 494 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:07,010 the vehicle and it bring the sand up 495 00:15:07,010 --> 00:15:09,819 the vehicle and it bring the sand up there should be an excellent shape we 496 00:15:09,819 --> 00:15:09,829 there should be an excellent shape we 497 00:15:09,829 --> 00:15:11,889 there should be an excellent shape we believe that the D eyes got all of the 498 00:15:11,889 --> 00:15:11,899 believe that the D eyes got all of the 499 00:15:11,899 --> 00:15:15,430 believe that the D eyes got all of the data that they were looking for I think 500 00:15:15,430 --> 00:15:15,440 data that they were looking for I think 501 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,079 data that they were looking for I think there's indications one experiment may 502 00:15:17,079 --> 00:15:17,089 there's indications one experiment may 503 00:15:17,089 --> 00:15:19,750 there's indications one experiment may have malfunction a little bit but at 504 00:15:19,750 --> 00:15:19,760 have malfunction a little bit but at 505 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,220 have malfunction a little bit but at least everything flew exactly the way 506 00:15:21,220 --> 00:15:21,230 least everything flew exactly the way 507 00:15:21,230 --> 00:15:23,860 least everything flew exactly the way it's supposed to fly so at this point 508 00:15:23,860 --> 00:15:23,870 it's supposed to fly so at this point 509 00:15:23,870 --> 00:15:27,020 it's supposed to fly so at this point we're very happy 510 00:15:27,020 --> 00:15:27,030 we're very happy 511 00:15:27,030 --> 00:15:29,330 we're very happy move it Hannah's rocket companies that 512 00:15:29,330 --> 00:15:29,340 move it Hannah's rocket companies that 513 00:15:29,340 --> 00:15:39,740 move it Hannah's rocket companies that one more time they they have to limit 514 00:15:39,740 --> 00:15:39,750 one more time they they have to limit 515 00:15:39,750 --> 00:15:41,690 one more time they they have to limit three on the number of their experiments 516 00:15:41,690 --> 00:15:41,700 three on the number of their experiments 517 00:15:41,700 --> 00:15:43,160 three on the number of their experiments some of them they don't get the data on 518 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:43,170 some of them they don't get the data on 519 00:15:43,170 --> 00:15:46,520 some of them they don't get the data on till a land but there are some functions 520 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:46,530 till a land but there are some functions 521 00:15:46,530 --> 00:15:49,430 till a land but there are some functions that show up on a telemetry believe this 522 00:15:49,430 --> 00:15:49,440 that show up on a telemetry believe this 523 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:53,090 that show up on a telemetry believe this was a foam experiment but I'd rather not 524 00:15:53,090 --> 00:15:53,100 was a foam experiment but I'd rather not 525 00:15:53,100 --> 00:15:56,590 was a foam experiment but I'd rather not speak to that actually Fran wessling ER 526 00:15:56,590 --> 00:15:56,600 speak to that actually Fran wessling ER 527 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,720 speak to that actually Fran wessling ER dr. Len twister one of the people should 528 00:15:59,720 --> 00:15:59,730 dr. Len twister one of the people should 529 00:15:59,730 --> 00:16:01,130 dr. Len twister one of the people should discuss that if we're really not 530 00:16:01,130 --> 00:16:01,140 discuss that if we're really not 531 00:16:01,140 --> 00:16:06,430 discuss that if we're really not qualified to speak on her behalf on it 532 00:16:06,430 --> 00:16:06,440 533 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,800 far as we know everything went just fine 534 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:08,810 far as we know everything went just fine 535 00:16:08,810 --> 00:16:12,410 far as we know everything went just fine the attitude stayed we only had three 536 00:16:12,410 --> 00:16:12,420 the attitude stayed we only had three 537 00:16:12,420 --> 00:16:13,970 the attitude stayed we only had three thrusters fire during the whole 538 00:16:13,970 --> 00:16:13,980 thrusters fire during the whole 539 00:16:13,980 --> 00:16:15,950 thrusters fire during the whole zero-gravity period so that should have 540 00:16:15,950 --> 00:16:15,960 zero-gravity period so that should have 541 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:20,390 zero-gravity period so that should have got some excellent gravity which is the 542 00:16:20,390 --> 00:16:20,400 got some excellent gravity which is the 543 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:26,110 got some excellent gravity which is the purpose of the flight of course 544 00:16:26,110 --> 00:16:26,120 545 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,889 bird 546 00:16:28,889 --> 00:16:28,899 547 00:16:28,899 -->

00:16:46,089 orbital flights 10 orbitals there's a 557 00:16:46,089 --> 00:16:48,840 orbital flights 10 orbitals there's a Air Force proposal coming out here and 558 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:48,850 Air Force proposal coming out here and 559 00:16:48,850 --> 00:16:51,590 Air Force proposal coming out here and within the month for another 40 flights 560 00:16:51,590 --> 00:16:51,600 within the month for another 40 flights 561 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,540 within the month for another 40 flights we're working on some these are all 562 00:16:54,540 --> 00:16:54,550 we're working on some these are all 563 00:16:54,550 --> 00:16:58,319 we're working on some these are all orbital also we're working on a number 564 00:16:58,319 --> 00:16:58,329 orbital also we're working on a number 565 00:16:58,329 --> 00:17:00,629 orbital also we're working on a number of programs that involves suborbital 566 00:17:00,629 --> 00:17:00,639 of programs that involves suborbital 567 00:17:00,639 --> 00:17:03,389 of programs that involves suborbital such as you saw here today so we've got 568 00:17:03,389 --> 00:17:03,399 such as you saw here today so we've got 569 00:17:03,399 --> 00:17:06,120 such as you saw here today so we've got a lot of stuff out there ahead of us and 570 00:17:06,120 --> 00:17:06,130 a lot of stuff out there ahead of us and 571 00:17:06,130 --> 00:17:07,529 a lot of stuff out there ahead of us and we're working God and they're very 572 00:17:07,529 --> 00:17:07,539 we're working God and they're very 573 00:17:07,539 --> 00:17:08,819 we're working God and they're very confident that we're going to end up 574 00:17:08,819 --> 00:17:08,829 confident that we're going to end up 575 00:17:08,829 --> 00:17:13,760 confident that we're going to end up doing 576 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:13,770 577 00:17:13,770 --> 00:17:16,280 we got we got more proposals and we can 578 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:16,290 we got we got more proposals and we can 579 00:17:16,290 --> 00:17:18,050 we got we got more proposals and we can handle her between new and launches but 580 00:17:18,050 --> 00:17:18,060 handle her between new and launches but 581 00:17:18,060 --> 00:17:19,850 handle her between new and launches but that's a nice problem to have we don't 582 00:17:19,850 --> 00:17:19,860 that's a nice problem to have we don't 583 00:17:19,860 --> 00:17:28,290 that's a nice problem to have we don't object to that at all 584 00:17:28,290 --> 00:17:28,300 585 00:17:28,300 --> 00:17:30,360 well yeah today's right certainly 586 00:17:30,360 --> 00:17:30,370 well yeah today's right certainly 587 00:17:30,370 --> 00:17:32,130 well yeah today's right certainly anytime you have a success it's 588 00:17:32,130 --> 00:17:32,140 anytime you have a success it's 589 00:17:32,140 --> 00:17:38,370 anytime you have a success it's obviously helpful it's I guess if you 590 00:17:38,370 --> 00:17:38,380 obviously helpful it's I guess if you 591 00:17:38,380 --> 00:17:39,780 obviously helpful it's I guess if you fail is prone to give you a more 592 00:17:39,780 --> 00:17:39,790 fail is prone to give you a more 593 00:17:39,790 --> 00:17:41,580 fail is prone to give you a more negative than a success is to give you 594 00:17:41,580 --> 00:17:41,590 negative than a success is to give you 595 00:17:41,590 --> 00:17:44,520 negative than a success is to give you positive unfortunately but there was 596 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:44,530 positive unfortunately but there was 597 00:17:44,530 --> 00:17:47,610 positive unfortunately but there was obviously a big help to us we think 598 00:17:47,610 --> 00:17:47,620 obviously a big help to us we think 599 00:17:47,620 --> 00:17:48,930 obviously a big help to us we think everybody in the industry actually to 600 00:17:48,930 --> 00:17:48,940 everybody in the industry actually to 601 00:17:48,940 --> 00:17:51,270 everybody in the industry actually to have a success it doesn't help anybody 602 00:17:51,270 --> 00:17:51,280 have a success it doesn't help anybody 603 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,910 have a success it doesn't help anybody missed industry for anybody to fail so 604 00:17:53,910 --> 00:17:53,920 missed industry for anybody to fail so 605 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,430 missed industry for anybody to fail so we're happy to see anybody succeed and 606 00:17:56,430 --> 00:17:56,440 we're happy to see anybody succeed and 607 00:17:56,440 --> 00:18:17,440 we're happy to see anybody succeed and of course special when we do 608 00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:17,450 609 00:18:17,450 --> 00:18:24,279 well we don't get too tense we've been 610 00:18:24,279 --> 00:18:24,289 well we don't get too tense we've been 611 00:18:24,289 --> 00:18:25,539 well we don't get too tense we've been involved in a lot of them here with that 612 00:18:25,539 --> 00:18:25,549 involved in a lot of them here with that 613 00:18:25,549 --> 00:18:28,629 involved in a lot of them here with that guy's line item songs your unmanned the 614 00:18:28,629 --> 00:18:28,639 guy's line item songs your unmanned the 615 00:18:28,639 --> 00:18:30,700 guy's line item songs your unmanned the worst that can happen you know it's not 616 00:18:30,700 --> 00:18:30,710 worst that can happen you know it's not 617 00:18:30,710 --> 00:18:35,409 worst that can happen you know it's not too bad but now that we were we were not 618 00:18:35,409 --> 00:18:35,419 too bad but now that we were we were not 619 00:18:35,419 --> 00:18:38,519 too bad but now that we were we were not tense but we had a you know some serious 620 00:18:38,519 --> 00:18:38,529 tense but we had a you know some serious 621 00:18:38,529 --> 00:18:40,450 tense but we had a you know some serious discussions there about whether we 622 00:18:40,450 --> 00:18:40,460 discussions there about whether we 623 00:18:40,460 --> 00:18:42,639 discussions there about whether we should or shouldn't until we got more 624 00:18:42,639 --> 00:18:42,649 should or shouldn't until we got more 625 00:18:42,649 --> 00:18:45,430 should or shouldn't until we got more data but we were a little bit concerned 626 00:18:45,430 --> 00:18:45,440 data but we were a little bit concerned 627 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,139 data but we were a little bit concerned there we might in fact after scrub and 628 00:18:47,139 --> 00:18:47,149 there we might in fact after scrub and 629 00:18:47,149 --> 00:18:48,700 there we might in fact after scrub and if we did we were looking at anywhere 630 00:18:48,700 --> 00:18:48,710 if we did we were looking at anywhere 631 00:18:48,710 --> 00:18:51,789 if we did we were looking at anywhere from two to six days of slippage so we 632 00:18:51,789 --> 00:18:51,799 from two to six days of slippage so we 633 00:18:51,799 --> 00:18:53,950 from two to six days of slippage so we were happy we didn't have to do that but 634 00:18:53,950 --> 00:18:53,960 were happy we didn't have to do that but 635 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:55,240 were happy we didn't have to do that but on the other hand we weren't about to do 636 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:55,250 on the other hand we weren't about to do 637 00:18:55,250 --> 00:18:56,470 on the other hand we weren't about to do anything dumb we wanted to be very 638 00:18:56,470 --> 00:18:56,480 anything dumb we wanted to be very 639 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,289 anything dumb we wanted to be very confident that it was going to go good 640 00:18:58,289 --> 00:18:58,299 confident that it was going to go good 641 00:18:58,299 --> 00:19:00,820 confident that it was going to go good before we went to that final three 642 00:19:00,820 --> 00:19:00,830 before we went to that final three 643 00:19:00,830 --> 00:19:10,000 before we went to that final three minutes of the count 644 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:10,010 645 00:19:10,010 --> 00:19:11,770 been very frustrating and then at this 646 00:19:11,770 --> 00:19:11,780 been very frustrating and then at this 647 00:19:11,780 --> 00:19:13,350 been very frustrating and then at this point really 648 00:19:13,350 --> 00:19:13,360 point really 649 00:19:13,360 --> 00:19:15,150 point really well you're right but the last one 650 00:19:15,150 --> 00:19:15,160 well you're right but the last one 651 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,310 well you're right but the last one wasn't was a kind of a weird thing I 652 00:19:17,310 --> 00:19:17,320 wasn't was a kind of a weird thing I 653 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:21,140 wasn't was a kind of a weird thing I guess in this business you know you 654 00:19:21,140 --> 00:19:21,150 655 00:19:21,150 --> 00:19:23,520 apply a lot of skill and cunning is 656 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:23,530 apply a lot of skill and cunning is 657 00:19:23,530 --> 00:19:25,020 apply a lot of skill and cunning is right choice of words and do the best 658 00:19:25,020 --> 00:19:25,030 right choice of words and do the best 659 00:19:25,030 --> 00:19:28,919 right choice of words and do the best you can but Brazil is that one percent 660 00:19:28,919 --> 00:19:28,929 you can but Brazil is that one percent 661 00:19:28,929 --> 00:19:31,049 you can but Brazil is that one percent or two out there that's pure luck and 662 00:19:31,049 --> 00:19:31,059 or two out there that's pure luck and 663 00:19:31,059 --> 00:19:34,320 or two out there that's pure luck and once in a while you have bad luck and it 664 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:34,330 once in a while you have bad luck and it 665 00:19:34,330 --> 00:19:35,880 once in a while you have bad luck and it happens to everybody in the business and 666 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:35,890 happens to everybody in the business and 667 00:19:35,890 --> 00:19:37,410 happens to everybody in the business and this is just a case where I think 668 00:19:37,410 --> 00:19:37,420 this is just a case where I think 669 00:19:37,420 --> 00:19:38,880 this is just a case where I think everybody had done everything he could 670 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:38,890 everybody had done everything he could 671 00:19:38,890 --> 00:19:41,340 everybody had done everything he could reasonably expect them to do the same 672 00:19:41,340 --> 00:19:41,350 reasonably expect them to do the same 673 00:19:41,350 --> 00:19:43,080 reasonably expect them to do the same system and flowing a number of times and 674 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:43,090 system and flowing a number of times and 675 00:19:43,090 --> 00:19:44,700 system and flowing a number of times and exactly that configuration we just 676 00:19:44,700 --> 00:19:44,710 exactly that configuration we just 677 00:19:44,710 --> 00:19:47,700 exactly that configuration we just happened to get bit by so it was an 678 00:19:47,700 --> 00:19:47,710 happened to get bit by so it was an 679 00:19:47,710 --> 00:19:49,650 happened to get bit by so it was an accident air waiting in somebody we just 680 00:19:49,650 --> 00:19:49,660 accident air waiting in somebody we just 681 00:19:49,660 --> 00:19:52,110 accident air waiting in somebody we just run fortunate rather frustrating part of 682 00:19:52,110 --> 00:19:52,120 run fortunate rather frustrating part of 683 00:19:52,120 --> 00:19:53,520 run fortunate rather frustrating part of that one of course is we're only half a 684 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:53,530 that one of course is we're only half a 685 00:19:53,530 --> 00:19:55,110 that one of course is we're only half a second away from a successful flight 686 00:19:55,110 --> 00:19:55,120 second away from a successful flight 687 00:19:55,120 --> 00:19:57,450 second away from a successful flight we'd have kept flying one half second 688 00:19:57,450 --> 00:19:57,460 we'd have kept flying one half second 689 00:19:57,460 --> 00:19:58,740 we'd have kept flying one half second more in the last night we'd had a good 690 00:19:58,740 --> 00:19:58,750 more in the last night we'd had a good 691 00:19:58,750 --> 00:20:01,260 more in the last night we'd had a good flight just like this one so you'll just 692 00:20:01,260 --> 00:20:01,270 flight just like this one so you'll just 693 00:20:01,270 --> 00:20:03,240 flight just like this one so you'll just die closer doing successful failure in 694 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:03,250 die closer doing successful failure in 695 00:20:03,250 --> 00:20:08,980 die closer doing successful failure in this business 696 00:20:08,980 --> 00:20:08,990 697 00:20:08,990 --> 00:20:13,450 yes it is that's yeah the hardware we 698 00:20:13,450 --> 00:20:13,460 yes it is that's yeah the hardware we 699 00:20:13,460 --> 00:20:16,090 yes it is that's yeah the hardware we use the the guidance package and the 700 00:20:16,090 --> 00:20:16,100 use the the guidance package and the 701 00:20:16,100 --> 00:20:18,640 use the the guidance package and the recovery system are reused to refurbish 702 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:18,650 recovery system are reused to refurbish 703 00:20:18,650 --> 00:20:21,880 recovery system are reused to refurbish at the factory in this system we flew 704 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:21,890 at the factory in this system we flew 705 00:20:21,890 --> 00:20:23,740 at the factory in this system we flew today i believe is our third flight 706 00:20:23,740 --> 00:20:23,750 today i believe is our third flight 707 00:20:23,750 --> 00:20:30,770 today i believe is our third flight we've flown that hard work so 708 00:20:30,770 --> 00:20:30,780 709 00:20:30,780 --> 00:20:32,930 no I think we're not concerned about 710 00:20:32,930 --> 00:20:32,940 no I think we're not concerned about 711 00:20:32,940 --> 00:20:35,300 no I think we're not concerned about worrying things out if that's a sense to 712 00:20:35,300 --> 00:20:35,310 worrying things out if that's a sense to 713 00:20:35,310 --> 00:20:37,580 worrying things out if that's a sense to your question no that's always possible 714 00:20:37,580 --> 00:20:37,590 your question no that's always possible 715 00:20:37,590 --> 00:20:40,970 your question no that's always possible but now we send it back to the factory 716 00:20:40,970 --> 00:20:40,980 but now we send it back to the factory 717 00:20:40,980 --> 00:20:43,510 but now we send it back to the factory get it refurbished Andhra verified and 718 00:20:43,510 --> 00:20:43,520 get it refurbished Andhra verified and 719 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,790 get it refurbished Andhra verified and this basically comes out as new new 720 00:20:46,790 --> 00:20:46,800 this basically comes out as new new 721 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:48,290 this basically comes out as new new equipment from a functional point of 722 00:20:48,290 --> 00:20:48,300 equipment from a functional point of 723 00:20:48,300 --> 00:20:56,630 equipment from a functional point of view yes it does you bet yep 724 00:20:56,630 --> 00:20:56,640 725 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,200 actually we only missed about two miles 726 00:20:59,200 --> 00:20:59,210 actually we only missed about two miles 727 00:20:59,210 --> 00:21:02,450 actually we only missed about two miles worst mark mark daniel has got the exact 728 00:21:02,450 --> 00:21:02,460 worst mark mark daniel has got the exact 729 00:21:02,460 --> 00:21:05,390 worst mark mark daniel has got the exact number but i believe we we were targeted 730 00:21:05,390 --> 00:21:05,400 number but i believe we we were targeted 731 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,840 number but i believe we we were targeted for 52 miles and we we landed it about 732 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:08,850 for 52 miles and we we landed it about 733 00:21:08,850 --> 00:21:13,040 for 52 miles and we we landed it about 54 so this is well within the limits 734 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:13,050 54 so this is well within the limits 735 00:21:13,050 --> 00:21:16,220 54 so this is well within the limits he'd expected Marc Marquez running 736 00:21:16,220 --> 00:21:16,230 he'd expected Marc Marquez running 737 00:21:16,230 --> 00:21:19,580 he'd expected Marc Marquez running continual wind checks and launching 738 00:21:19,580 --> 00:21:19,590 continual wind checks and launching 739 00:21:19,590 --> 00:21:21,530 continual wind checks and launching settings throughout the count and he 740 00:21:21,530 --> 00:21:21,540 settings throughout the count and he 741 00:21:21,540 --> 00:21:23,510 settings throughout the count and he gave him the last one mark you want a 742 00:21:23,510 --> 00:21:23,520 gave him the last one mark you want a 743 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,750 gave him the last one mark you want a quarter a second here's our program 744 00:21:26,750 --> 00:21:26,760 quarter a second here's our program 745 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:28,430 quarter a second here's our program manager mark Daniels he's the guy that 746 00:21:28,430 --> 00:21:28,440 manager mark Daniels he's the guy that 747 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:32,330 manager mark Daniels he's the guy that really made this work and they were 748 00:21:32,330 --> 00:21:32,340 really made this work and they were 749 00:21:32,340 --> 00:21:34,040 really made this work and they were wondering how we did on the impact 750 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:34,050 wondering how we did on the impact 751 00:21:34,050 --> 00:21:37,190 wondering how we did on the impact royalty to predictions well we were 752 00:21:37,190 --> 00:21:37,200 royalty to predictions well we were 753 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:39,410 royalty to predictions well we were right on the money with our impact 754 00:21:39,410 --> 00:21:39,420 right on the money with our impact 755 00:21:39,420 --> 00:21:42,320 right on the money with our impact predictions we were predicting about 50 756 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:42,330 predictions we were predicting about 50 757 00:21:42,330 --> 00:21:46,190 predictions we were predicting about 50 miles north of here and six miles west 758 00:21:46,190 --> 00:21:46,200 miles north of here and six miles west 759 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:51,440 miles north of here and six miles west and we impacted 54 north and 11 west so 760 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:51,450 and we impacted 54 north and 11 west so 761 00:21:51,450 --> 00:21:53,560 and we impacted 54 north and 11 west so that's about as close as you can get to 762 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:53,570 that's about as close as you can get to 763 00:21:53,570 --> 00:22:00,240 that's about as close as you can get to being on the money 764 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:00,250 765 00:22:00,250 --> 00:22:03,150 that's correct 54 miles north of the 766 00:22:03,150 --> 00:22:03,160 that's correct 54 miles north of the 767 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:08,340 that's correct 54 miles north of the launcher so we were about as happy as I 768 00:22:08,340 --> 00:22:08,350 launcher so we were about as happy as I 769 00:22:08,350 --> 00:22:10,110 launcher so we were about as happy as I think you can get with everything that 770 00:22:10,110 --> 00:22:10,120 think you can get with everything that 771 00:22:10,120 --> 00:22:12,390 think you can get with everything that all the systems and the performance 772 00:22:12,390 --> 00:22:12,400 all the systems and the performance 773 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:19,440 all the systems and the performance today it's a signal coming through on 774 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:19,450 today it's a signal coming through on 775 00:22:19,450 --> 00:22:21,990 today it's a signal coming through on the TM electronic noise the wiper arm 776 00:22:21,990 --> 00:22:22,000 the TM electronic noise the wiper arm 777 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:26,550 the TM electronic noise the wiper arm that goes against the gyro itself we 778 00:22:26,550 --> 00:22:26,560 that goes against the gyro itself we 779 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:28,500 that goes against the gyro itself we think there was some contamination error 780 00:22:28,500 --> 00:22:28,510 think there was some contamination error 781 00:22:28,510 --> 00:22:31,410 think there was some contamination error on that and so it was interrupting the 782 00:22:31,410 --> 00:22:31,420 on that and so it was interrupting the 783 00:22:31,420 --> 00:22:33,810 on that and so it was interrupting the electrical signal and this would have 784 00:22:33,810 --> 00:22:33,820 electrical signal and this would have 785 00:22:33,820 --> 00:22:35,910 electrical signal and this would have given you a feedback into the servos 786 00:22:35,910 --> 00:22:35,920 given you a feedback into the servos 787 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,010 given you a feedback into the servos which would be its represent herself as 788 00:22:38,010 --> 00:22:38,020 which would be its represent herself as 789 00:22:38,020 --> 00:22:40,230 which would be its represent herself as a chatter in a control system we 790 00:22:40,230 --> 00:22:40,240 a chatter in a control system we 791 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,390 a chatter in a control system we concluded that even if it had in fact 792 00:22:42,390 --> 00:22:42,400 concluded that even if it had in fact 793 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,310 concluded that even if it had in fact happened in flight it probably would not 794 00:22:44,310 --> 00:22:44,320 happened in flight it probably would not 795 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:46,140 happened in flight it probably would not have reacted into the vehicle we'd had 796 00:22:46,140 --> 00:22:46,150 have reacted into the vehicle we'd had 797 00:22:46,150 --> 00:22:49,560 have reacted into the vehicle we'd had enough filtering an electronic system 798 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:49,570 enough filtering an electronic system 799 00:22:49,570 --> 00:22:51,510 enough filtering an electronic system plus dynamic damping in the vehicle 800 00:22:51,510 --> 00:22:51,520 plus dynamic damping in the vehicle 801 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,580 plus dynamic damping in the vehicle itself that it would have not been a 802 00:22:53,580 --> 00:22:53,590 itself that it would have not been a 803 00:22:53,590 --> 00:22:55,920 itself that it would have not been a problem that is you can imagine we're 804 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:55,930 problem that is you can imagine we're 805 00:22:55,930 --> 00:22:57,510 problem that is you can imagine we're pretty conservative at this point and we 806 00:22:57,510 --> 00:22:57,520 pretty conservative at this point and we 807 00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:59,670 pretty conservative at this point and we weren't going to gamble do we convince 808 00:22:59,670 --> 00:22:59,680 weren't going to gamble do we convince 809 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:01,200 weren't going to gamble do we convince ourselves that it was really not a 810 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:01,210 ourselves that it was really not a 811 00:23:01,210 --> 00:23:13,700 ourselves that it was really not a problem 812 00:23:13,700 --> 00:23:13,710 813 00:23:13,710 --> 00:23:16,650 yeah the question about how this relates 814 00:23:16,650 --> 00:23:16,660 yeah the question about how this relates 815 00:23:16,660 --> 00:23:19,140 yeah the question about how this relates to the orbital flight actually takes the 816 00:23:19,140 --> 00:23:19,150 to the orbital flight actually takes the 817 00:23:19,150 --> 00:23:21,570 to the orbital flight actually takes the same kind of a team exactly it we have 818 00:23:21,570 --> 00:23:21,580 same kind of a team exactly it we have 819 00:23:21,580 --> 00:23:24,240 same kind of a team exactly it we have different players but the difference 820 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:24,250 different players but the difference 821 00:23:24,250 --> 00:23:25,860 different players but the difference between an orbital flight and this one 822 00:23:25,860 --> 00:23:25,870 between an orbital flight and this one 823 00:23:25,870 --> 00:23:28,350 between an orbital flight and this one from the mission preparation and the 824 00:23:28,350 --> 00:23:28,360 from the mission preparation and the 825 00:23:28,360 --> 00:23:30,270 from the mission preparation and the launch is very very similar there's not 826 00:23:30,270 --> 00:23:30,280 launch is very very similar there's not 827 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:32,400 launch is very very similar there's not a lot of difference really almost no 828 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:32,410 a lot of difference really almost no 829 00:23:32,410 --> 00:23:34,100 a lot of difference really almost no more people involved as a matter of fact 830 00:23:34,100 --> 00:23:34,110 more people involved as a matter of fact 831 00:23:34,110 --> 00:23:36,630 more people involved as a matter of fact the only difference is instead of going 832 00:23:36,630 --> 00:23:36,640 the only difference is instead of going 833 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:38,250 the only difference is instead of going up and coming down we go to the same 834 00:23:38,250 --> 00:23:38,260 up and coming down we go to the same 835 00:23:38,260 --> 00:23:40,920 up and coming down we go to the same altitude and keep going in fact most 836 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:40,930 altitude and keep going in fact most 837 00:23:40,930 --> 00:23:42,450 altitude and keep going in fact most orbital flights won't even go that high 838 00:23:42,450 --> 00:23:42,460 orbital flights won't even go that high 839 00:23:42,460 --> 00:23:44,370 orbital flights won't even go that high you know you flatten out and you just 840 00:23:44,370 --> 00:23:44,380 you know you flatten out and you just 841 00:23:44,380 --> 00:23:46,320 you know you flatten out and you just use the interview to accelerate orbital 842 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:46,330 use the interview to accelerate orbital 843 00:23:46,330 --> 00:23:51,570 use the interview to accelerate orbital velocity 844 00:23:51,570 --> 00:23:51,580 845 00:23:51,580 --> 00:23:56,830 the NASA contracts are set for a mid 93 846 00:23:56,830 --> 00:23:56,840 the NASA contracts are set for a mid 93 847 00:23:56,840 --> 00:24:00,310 the NASA contracts are set for a mid 93 first launch the Air Force is fall of 92 848 00:24:00,310 --> 00:24:00,320 first launch the Air Force is fall of 92 849 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,860 first launch the Air Force is fall of 92 and a couple other programs that could 850 00:24:02,860 --> 00:24:02,870 and a couple other programs that could 851 00:24:02,870 --> 00:24:08,049 and a couple other programs that could be in the middle e92 time frame probably 852 00:24:08,049 --> 00:24:08,059 be in the middle e92 time frame probably 853 00:24:08,059 --> 00:24:18,460 be in the middle e92 time frame probably nothing in 91 854 00:24:18,460 --> 00:24:18,470 855 00:24:18,470 --> 00:24:21,260 well we feel very good about it we've 856 00:24:21,260 --> 00:24:21,270 well we feel very good about it we've 857 00:24:21,270 --> 00:24:23,150 well we feel very good about it we've felt since day one and we have an 858 00:24:23,150 --> 00:24:23,160 felt since day one and we have an 859 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,880 felt since day one and we have an excellent orbital launch system we 860 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:25,890 excellent orbital launch system we 861 00:24:25,890 --> 00:24:27,529 excellent orbital launch system we believe it's the best one the country's 862 00:24:27,529 --> 00:24:27,539 believe it's the best one the country's 863 00:24:27,539 --> 00:24:29,090 believe it's the best one the country's got of course we're a little prejudiced 864 00:24:29,090 --> 00:24:29,100 got of course we're a little prejudiced 865 00:24:29,100 --> 00:24:31,580 got of course we're a little prejudiced will admit but it's based on highly 866 00:24:31,580 --> 00:24:31,590 will admit but it's based on highly 867 00:24:31,590 --> 00:24:35,810 will admit but it's based on highly reliable components and we are able to 868 00:24:35,810 --> 00:24:35,820 reliable components and we are able to 869 00:24:35,820 --> 00:24:38,330 reliable components and we are able to ensure the insurance companies looked at 870 00:24:38,330 --> 00:24:38,340 ensure the insurance companies looked at 871 00:24:38,340 --> 00:24:40,460 ensure the insurance companies looked at it and set our premiums and we've got 872 00:24:40,460 --> 00:24:40,470 it and set our premiums and we've got 873 00:24:40,470 --> 00:24:42,020 it and set our premiums and we've got about as low premium there's anybody in 874 00:24:42,020 --> 00:24:42,030 about as low premium there's anybody in 875 00:24:42,030 --> 00:24:44,180 about as low premium there's anybody in the country so we think that's a vote of 876 00:24:44,180 --> 00:24:44,190 the country so we think that's a vote of 877 00:24:44,190 --> 00:24:47,060 the country so we think that's a vote of confidence in our system so we think we 878 00:24:47,060 --> 00:24:47,070 confidence in our system so we think we 879 00:24:47,070 --> 00:24:48,830 confidence in our system so we think we got an outstanding system there we just 880 00:24:48,830 --> 00:24:48,840 got an outstanding system there we just 881 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:50,270 got an outstanding system there we just hope to have the opportunity to go use 882 00:24:50,270 --> 00:24:50,280 hope to have the opportunity to go use 883 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:54,919 hope to have the opportunity to go use it I think dr. Lundqvist from the 884 00:24:54,919 --> 00:24:54,929 it I think dr. Lundqvist from the 885 00:24:54,929 --> 00:24:56,960 it I think dr. Lundqvist from the university of alabama's is here and 886 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:56,970 university of alabama's is here and 887 00:24:56,970 --> 00:24:58,610 university of alabama's is here and there were some earlier questions about 888 00:24:58,610 --> 00:24:58,620 there were some earlier questions about 889 00:24:58,620 --> 00:25:00,380 there were some earlier questions about the payload and easy he's the guy to 890 00:25:00,380 --> 00:25:00,390 the payload and easy he's the guy to 891 00:25:00,390 --> 00:25:02,840 the payload and easy he's the guy to talk to those so there's anybody have 892 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:02,850 talk to those so there's anybody have 893 00:25:02,850 --> 00:25:04,640 talk to those so there's anybody have anything else on a launch vehicle I'll 894 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:04,650 anything else on a launch vehicle I'll 895 00:25:04,650 --> 00:25:06,020 anything else on a launch vehicle I'll answer it otherwise we should turn it 896 00:25:06,020 --> 00:25:06,030 answer it otherwise we should turn it 897 00:25:06,030 --> 00:25:10,520 answer it otherwise we should turn it over to him okay well thank you we're 898 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:10,530 over to him okay well thank you we're 899 00:25:10,530 --> 00:25:11,930 over to him okay well thank you we're happy you're all here to watch it and 900 00:25:11,930 --> 00:25:11,940 happy you're all here to watch it and 901 00:25:11,940 --> 00:25:19,869 happy you're all here to watch it and then got a dick 902 00:25:19,869 --> 00:25:19,879 903 00:25:19,879 --> 00:25:22,479 I'm Chuck Lundqvist from the university 904 00:25:22,479 --> 00:25:22,489 I'm Chuck Lundqvist from the university 905 00:25:22,489 --> 00:25:25,629 I'm Chuck Lundqvist from the university of alabama in huntsville the consortium 906 00:25:25,629 --> 00:25:25,639 of alabama in huntsville the consortium 907 00:25:25,639 --> 00:25:29,799 of alabama in huntsville the consortium for materials development in space let 908 00:25:29,799 --> 00:25:29,809 for materials development in space let 909 00:25:29,809 --> 00:25:33,219 for materials development in space let me begin by congratulating deep and SSI 910 00:25:33,219 --> 00:25:33,229 me begin by congratulating deep and SSI 911 00:25:33,229 --> 00:25:36,849 me begin by congratulating deep and SSI on a great flight we got the kind of 912 00:25:36,849 --> 00:25:36,859 on a great flight we got the kind of 913 00:25:36,859 --> 00:25:41,649 on a great flight we got the kind of ride we wanted and are now awaiting the 914 00:25:41,649 --> 00:25:41,659 ride we wanted and are now awaiting the 915 00:25:41,659 --> 00:25:44,680 ride we wanted and are now awaiting the recovery of the payload obviously it 916 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:44,690 recovery of the payload obviously it 917 00:25:44,690 --> 00:25:46,719 recovery of the payload obviously it came down on parachute and we don't have 918 00:25:46,719 --> 00:25:46,729 came down on parachute and we don't have 919 00:25:46,729 --> 00:25:49,359 came down on parachute and we don't have a report yet from the helicopter having 920 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:49,369 a report yet from the helicopter having 921 00:25:49,369 --> 00:25:52,389 a report yet from the helicopter having reached the site so i can't tell you 922 00:25:52,389 --> 00:25:52,399 reached the site so i can't tell you 923 00:25:52,399 --> 00:25:54,819 reached the site so i can't tell you exactly what form the payload is in but 924 00:25:54,819 --> 00:25:54,829 exactly what form the payload is in but 925 00:25:54,829 --> 00:25:57,639 exactly what form the payload is in but came down well on parachutes so there's 926 00:25:57,639 --> 00:25:57,649 came down well on parachutes so there's 927 00:25:57,649 --> 00:26:00,599 came down well on parachutes so there's every reason to believe that it's a 928 00:26:00,599 --> 00:26:00,609 every reason to believe that it's a 929 00:26:00,609 --> 00:26:04,719 every reason to believe that it's a successful recovery the recovery will be 930 00:26:04,719 --> 00:26:04,729 successful recovery the recovery will be 931 00:26:04,729 --> 00:26:12,700 successful recovery the recovery will be taking place probably right now 932 00:26:12,700 --> 00:26:12,710 933 00:26:12,710 --> 00:26:15,630 with regard to any of the specific 934 00:26:15,630 --> 00:26:15,640 with regard to any of the specific 935 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,980 with regard to any of the specific experiments it's too early to make any 936 00:26:17,980 --> 00:26:17,990 experiments it's too early to make any 937 00:26:17,990 --> 00:26:22,389 experiments it's too early to make any kind of a diagnosis from the telemetry 938 00:26:22,389 --> 00:26:22,399 kind of a diagnosis from the telemetry 939 00:26:22,399 --> 00:26:25,510 kind of a diagnosis from the telemetry we can tell that the timer's that 940 00:26:25,510 --> 00:26:25,520 we can tell that the timer's that 941 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:27,909 we can tell that the timer's that operated the different instruments 942 00:26:27,909 --> 00:26:27,919 operated the different instruments 943 00:26:27,919 --> 00:26:31,110 operated the different instruments worked and so the 12 experiments were 944 00:26:31,110 --> 00:26:31,120 worked and so the 12 experiments were 945 00:26:31,120 --> 00:26:34,690 worked and so the 12 experiments were working one one way or another and until 946 00:26:34,690 --> 00:26:34,700 working one one way or another and until 947 00:26:34,700 --> 00:26:38,139 working one one way or another and until we looked at the individual equipment 948 00:26:38,139 --> 00:26:38,149 we looked at the individual equipment 949 00:26:38,149 --> 00:26:40,960 we looked at the individual equipment when it gets back and do more detailed 950 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:40,970 when it gets back and do more detailed 951 00:26:40,970 --> 00:26:43,240 when it gets back and do more detailed analysis it's just premature to say 952 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:43,250 analysis it's just premature to say 953 00:26:43,250 --> 00:26:51,470 analysis it's just premature to say anything about any of the experiments 954 00:26:51,470 --> 00:26:51,480 955 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:56,240 the the one message or one bit of 956 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:56,250 the the one message or one bit of 957 00:26:56,250 --> 00:26:58,790 the the one message or one bit of indication was a temperature measurement 958 00:26:58,790 --> 00:26:58,800 indication was a temperature measurement 959 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:00,470 indication was a temperature measurement but there could be other interpretations 960 00:27:00,470 --> 00:27:00,480 but there could be other interpretations 961 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:04,910 but there could be other interpretations of that do so I I'd say it's premature 962 00:27:04,910 --> 00:27:04,920 of that do so I I'd say it's premature 963 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,610 of that do so I I'd say it's premature to make any kind of a diagnosis on any 964 00:27:07,610 --> 00:27:07,620 to make any kind of a diagnosis on any 965 00:27:07,620 --> 00:27:09,980 to make any kind of a diagnosis on any of the experiments we we don't really 966 00:27:09,980 --> 00:27:09,990 of the experiments we we don't really 967 00:27:09,990 --> 00:27:12,620 of the experiments we we don't really know anything about any of them 968 00:27:12,620 --> 00:27:12,630 know anything about any of them 969 00:27:12,630 --> 00:27:15,980 know anything about any of them specifically we know that the general 970 00:27:15,980 --> 00:27:15,990 specifically we know that the general 971 00:27:15,990 --> 00:27:18,110 specifically we know that the general apparatus worked within the payload we 972 00:27:18,110 --> 00:27:18,120 apparatus worked within the payload we 973 00:27:18,120 --> 00:27:20,930 apparatus worked within the payload we see that on the telemetry but just much 974 00:27:20,930 --> 00:27:20,940 see that on the telemetry but just much 975 00:27:20,940 --> 00:27:27,270 see that on the telemetry but just much too early to go beyond that 976 00:27:27,270 --> 00:27:27,280 977 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:29,580 questions 978 00:27:29,580 --> 00:27:29,590 questions 979 00:27:29,590 --> 00:27:32,070 questions let me again say that we're just very 980 00:27:32,070 --> 00:27:32,080 let me again say that we're just very 981 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,130 let me again say that we're just very pleased with the flight that SSI 982 00:27:35,130 --> 00:27:35,140 pleased with the flight that SSI 983 00:27:35,140 --> 00:27:39,690 pleased with the flight that SSI provided perfect day for it went went 984 00:27:39,690 --> 00:27:39,700 provided perfect day for it went went 985 00:27:39,700 --> 00:27:42,720 provided perfect day for it went went very well and we now have to analyze the 986 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:42,730 very well and we now have to analyze the 987 00:27:42,730 --> 00:27:45,360 very well and we now have to analyze the results from the individual experiments 988 00:27:45,360 --> 00:27:45,370 results from the individual experiments 989 00:27:45,370 --> 00:27:49,380 results from the individual experiments to see what results we got but I'm very 990 00:27:49,380 --> 00:27:49,390 to see what results we got but I'm very 991 00:27:49,390 --> 00:27:52,230 to see what results we got but I'm very optimistic that it was a very successful 992 00:27:52,230 --> 00:27:52,240 optimistic that it was a very successful 993 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:54,900 optimistic that it was a very successful flight
