1
00:00:14,920 --> 00:01:06,950
um

2
00:01:11,270 --> 00:01:09,510
children have a real zeal for life and a

3
00:01:13,270 --> 00:01:11,280
curiosity to learn

4
00:01:15,510 --> 00:01:13,280
many young people have an incredible

5
00:01:17,990 --> 00:01:15,520
fascination and romance with airplanes

6
00:01:19,670 --> 00:01:18,000
and rocket ships in outer space

7
00:01:22,149 --> 00:01:19,680
the national aeronautics and space

8
00:01:23,749 --> 00:01:22,159
administration is directed by law

9
00:01:25,749 --> 00:01:23,759
to report to the public upon

10
00:01:28,789 --> 00:01:25,759
developments and peaceful uses

11
00:01:29,590 --> 00:01:28,799
and exploration of air and space for

12
00:01:31,670 --> 00:01:29,600
this reason

13
00:01:33,429 --> 00:01:31,680
every nasa field center has an office

14
00:01:35,670 --> 00:01:33,439
that works with the general public

15
00:01:37,510 --> 00:01:35,680
as well as educators to disseminate

16
00:01:40,149 --> 00:01:37,520
knowledge gained as a result

17
00:01:42,630 --> 00:01:40,159
of nasa's research efforts one of the

18
00:01:44,469 --> 00:01:42,640
ways that nasa works with educators

19
00:01:46,469 --> 00:01:44,479
is through our aerospace education

20
00:01:48,950 --> 00:01:46,479
workshop program

21
00:01:50,950 --> 00:01:48,960
these workshops are co-sponsored each

22
00:01:52,950 --> 00:01:50,960
year by universities

23
00:01:54,469 --> 00:01:52,960
colleges and school districts across the

24
00:01:56,149 --> 00:01:54,479
whole united states

25
00:01:57,590 --> 00:01:56,159
although the content of aerospace

26
00:01:59,749 --> 00:01:57,600
workshop varies

27
00:02:00,870 --> 00:01:59,759
often teachers are introduced into such

28
00:02:03,350 --> 00:02:00,880
topics as

29
00:02:05,109 --> 00:02:03,360
applications in scientific satellites

30
00:02:07,109 --> 00:02:05,119
principles of rocketry

31
00:02:09,029 --> 00:02:07,119
exploration of the solar system

32
00:02:09,910 --> 00:02:09,039
aeronautics manned space flight

33
00:02:13,110 --> 00:02:09,920
activities

34
00:02:15,270 --> 00:02:13,120
and the arts in space in addition

35
00:02:17,430 --> 00:02:15,280
teachers are often introduced to the

36
00:02:20,070 --> 00:02:17,440
uses of community resources

37
00:02:21,190 --> 00:02:20,080
such as a visit to the local airport

38
00:02:24,790 --> 00:02:21,200
planetarium

39
00:02:27,110 --> 00:02:24,800
weather bureau or aerospace industry

40
00:02:28,949 --> 00:02:27,120
hello my name is lynn bondurant chief of

41
00:02:31,670 --> 00:02:28,959
the public services office at the nasa

42
00:02:33,670 --> 00:02:31,680
lewis research center in cleveland ohio

43
00:02:35,589 --> 00:02:33,680
and it's my pleasure to be your host as

44
00:02:37,430 --> 00:02:35,599
you visit the 11th annual

45
00:02:39,589 --> 00:02:37,440
teachers workshop the sky is your

46
00:02:40,470 --> 00:02:39,599
classroom co-sponsored by baldwin

47
00:02:42,630 --> 00:02:40,480
wallace college

48
00:02:44,070 --> 00:02:42,640
kent state university and the lewis

49
00:02:45,589 --> 00:02:44,080
research center

50
00:02:47,589 --> 00:02:45,599
in the next few minutes you will be

51
00:02:49,350 --> 00:02:47,599
introduced into how model rockets are

52
00:02:50,470 --> 00:02:49,360
used to teach about the principles of

53
00:02:52,390 --> 00:02:50,480
rocketry

54
00:02:54,790 --> 00:02:52,400
how eggs are packaged to represent an

55
00:02:56,869 --> 00:02:54,800
astronaut landing on another planet

56
00:02:58,149 --> 00:02:56,879
and how a trip to the cleveland museum

57
00:03:00,070 --> 00:02:58,159
of natural history

58
00:03:01,190 --> 00:03:00,080
was used to introduce a telescope and

59
00:03:24,789 --> 00:03:01,200
planetarium

60
00:03:28,869 --> 00:03:26,470
hey nancy why are you taking the teacher

61
00:03:30,550 --> 00:03:28,879
workshop i'm taking it because i've

62
00:03:31,910 --> 00:03:30,560
heard so many wonderful things about it

63
00:03:33,430 --> 00:03:31,920
a lot of my friends have already taken

64
00:03:34,470 --> 00:03:33,440
the workshop and have highly recommended

65
00:03:36,149 --> 00:03:34,480
it to other teachers

66
00:03:37,589 --> 00:03:36,159
so that's why i'm taking it this summer

67
00:03:39,110 --> 00:03:37,599
i'm taking the teacher workshop

68
00:03:40,710 --> 00:03:39,120
primarily because i've heard good things

69
00:03:42,390 --> 00:03:40,720
about it and also what i'm hoping to get

70
00:03:44,470 --> 00:03:42,400
out of it is to

71
00:03:46,390 --> 00:03:44,480
get some ideas for things i can do in

72
00:03:48,229 --> 00:03:46,400
the classroom and also some ideas i can

73
00:03:51,430 --> 00:03:48,239
use to help other teachers in our system

74
00:03:54,470 --> 00:03:51,440
with it works out great thanks

75
00:03:58,789 --> 00:03:54,480
all right we want to do another activity

76
00:04:01,270 --> 00:03:58,799
and this one is one that

77
00:04:02,710 --> 00:04:01,280
i thoroughly enjoyed doing with teachers

78
00:04:05,270 --> 00:04:02,720
and students

79
00:04:06,070 --> 00:04:05,280
and i would love someday to be able to

80
00:04:09,750 --> 00:04:06,080
do it with

81
00:04:11,350 --> 00:04:09,760
the administration especially that

82
00:04:13,429 --> 00:04:11,360
person in that school

83
00:04:15,750 --> 00:04:13,439
who is in charge of talking on the

84
00:04:18,310 --> 00:04:15,760
squawk box all the time

85
00:04:19,189 --> 00:04:18,320
you know you catch three of the 15 words

86
00:04:20,469 --> 00:04:19,199
that they say

87
00:04:21,590 --> 00:04:20,479
and you try to put the three together

88
00:04:22,790 --> 00:04:21,600
and you don't have any idea what they're

89
00:04:24,870 --> 00:04:22,800
talking about

90
00:04:26,550 --> 00:04:24,880
so we're going to play a little game

91
00:04:28,150 --> 00:04:26,560
called communication

92
00:04:30,390 --> 00:04:28,160
and what we're going to do is that we're

93
00:04:33,030 --> 00:04:30,400
going to have some tracking stations

94
00:04:34,950 --> 00:04:33,040
which will be some of you people mike up

95
00:04:36,950 --> 00:04:34,960
behind the curtains here just around the

96
00:04:40,469 --> 00:04:36,960
corner

97
00:04:47,350 --> 00:04:40,479
is these same objects

98
00:04:54,830 --> 00:04:50,629
on top of it is

99
00:04:57,749 --> 00:04:54,840
a round shape

100
00:05:01,670 --> 00:04:57,759
with eight holes going around it

101
00:05:05,909 --> 00:05:04,710
this the center hole is perpendicular to

102
00:05:08,830 --> 00:05:05,919
the object

103
00:05:14,629 --> 00:05:08,840
the blue spoke is put in one of the side

104
00:05:17,990 --> 00:05:17,110
keep going perpendicular still above

105
00:05:20,950 --> 00:05:18,000
that straight

106
00:05:21,430 --> 00:05:20,960
up is a yellow spoke about two inches in

107
00:05:26,070 --> 00:05:21,440
length

108
00:05:33,350 --> 00:05:29,830
on top of that is a green

109
00:05:42,230 --> 00:05:33,360
fin shape stuck in

110
00:05:50,830 --> 00:05:44,790
time that you didn't get all the way

111
00:05:50,840 --> 00:06:03,749
yes

112
00:06:07,909 --> 00:06:05,990
okay bring it down and then take it and

113
00:06:08,390 --> 00:06:07,919
walk it along and take a look to see how

114
00:06:15,909 --> 00:06:08,400
well

115
00:06:20,629 --> 00:06:18,150
scientific and application satellites

116
00:06:22,950 --> 00:06:20,639
affect our lives daily

117
00:06:25,749 --> 00:06:22,960
we use communication satellites to tie

118
00:06:28,150 --> 00:06:25,759
the world closer together

119
00:06:30,469 --> 00:06:28,160
meteorological satellites to see weather

120
00:06:32,469 --> 00:06:30,479
on a global basis

121
00:06:33,990 --> 00:06:32,479
scientific satellites to monitor the

122
00:06:40,550 --> 00:06:34,000
earth and its atmosphere from

123
00:06:45,990 --> 00:06:43,189
a visit to the lewis research center

124
00:06:48,230 --> 00:06:46,000
provides an opportunity to see firsthand

125
00:06:50,309 --> 00:06:48,240
the facilities and equipment that have

126
00:07:00,830 --> 00:06:50,319
played a significant role

127
00:07:00,840 --> 00:07:14,830
research

128
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:33,110
so

129
00:07:36,629 --> 00:07:35,350
the first a in nasa stands for

130
00:07:38,950 --> 00:07:36,639
aeronautics

131
00:07:40,950 --> 00:07:38,960
in a workshop teachers construct model

132
00:07:42,070 --> 00:07:40,960
airplanes to learn about the principles

133
00:08:38,829 --> 00:07:42,080
of flight

134
00:08:38,839 --> 00:10:25,670
do

135
00:10:29,110 --> 00:10:27,750
the cowling which is the front part of

136
00:10:30,870 --> 00:10:29,120
the plane here

137
00:10:33,110 --> 00:10:30,880
and the propeller this has a three

138
00:10:34,150 --> 00:10:33,120
bladed propeller some have two blade

139
00:10:37,670 --> 00:10:34,160
props and

140
00:10:40,230 --> 00:10:37,680
this one has little electrical de-icing

141
00:10:43,430 --> 00:10:40,240
boots here so that if we get into ice

142
00:10:45,269 --> 00:10:43,440
we can turn this on and the heat

143
00:10:48,710 --> 00:10:45,279
in the boot itself will help to melt the

144
00:10:52,630 --> 00:10:48,720
ice off the spinner here

145
00:10:55,110 --> 00:10:52,640
causes the shape to be more streamlined

146
00:10:57,430 --> 00:10:55,120
so it reduces the resistance of the drag

147
00:10:58,710 --> 00:10:57,440
the nose gear of course retracts up into

148
00:11:01,190 --> 00:10:58,720
the fuselage

149
00:11:01,750 --> 00:11:01,200
we have a landing light here for a night

150
00:11:04,630 --> 00:11:01,760
flying

151
00:11:06,069 --> 00:11:04,640
or anytime around an airport environment

152
00:11:23,910 --> 00:11:06,079
and you want to turn the light on so

153
00:11:27,030 --> 00:11:26,470
one thing that you might not think about

154
00:11:29,350 --> 00:11:27,040
is

155
00:11:30,710 --> 00:11:29,360
the wright brothers are credited with

156
00:11:33,350 --> 00:11:30,720
the first successful

157
00:11:34,069 --> 00:11:33,360
heavier than their aircraft at the end

158
00:11:37,350 --> 00:11:34,079
of december

159
00:11:40,230 --> 00:11:37,360
now the

160
00:11:40,870 --> 00:11:40,240
europeans the english and the french did

161
00:11:43,110 --> 00:11:40,880
the most

162
00:11:45,350 --> 00:11:43,120
of developing early aircraft but the

163
00:11:48,389 --> 00:11:45,360
first aircraft was flown in europe

164
00:11:49,670 --> 00:11:48,399
it wasn't flown in europe until 1906. so

165
00:11:51,269 --> 00:11:49,680
you've got at least a two year

166
00:11:52,790 --> 00:11:51,279
difference there at the minimum

167
00:11:54,150 --> 00:11:52,800
between the first aircraft flown in the

168
00:11:54,629 --> 00:11:54,160
united states and the first one in

169
00:11:58,470 --> 00:11:54,639
europe

170
00:12:01,670 --> 00:11:58,480
but if you go to say like 1910 1911 1912

171
00:12:03,350 --> 00:12:01,680
most all the aircraft that were built

172
00:12:04,710 --> 00:12:03,360
and flying were built in europe

173
00:12:08,710 --> 00:12:04,720
and you have any idea why they were not

174
00:12:12,870 --> 00:12:10,310
it's mainly because the wright brothers

175
00:12:15,509 --> 00:12:12,880
were having a fight over their patent

176
00:12:17,030 --> 00:12:15,519
on the controllability the main person

177
00:12:18,470 --> 00:12:17,040
they were against was a guy by the name

178
00:12:19,990 --> 00:12:18,480
of glenn curtis

179
00:12:22,550 --> 00:12:20,000
and they had a big fight and it didn't

180
00:12:24,949 --> 00:12:22,560
end really until in the 1930s

181
00:12:25,829 --> 00:12:24,959
so we didn't develop many airplanes

182
00:12:28,150 --> 00:12:25,839
whenever

183
00:12:29,670 --> 00:12:28,160
curtis would build an airplane the

184
00:12:30,629 --> 00:12:29,680
rights would say he was infringing on

185
00:12:32,470 --> 00:12:30,639
their patent

186
00:12:33,590 --> 00:12:32,480
but now in england and france they

187
00:12:34,710 --> 00:12:33,600
really didn't care about the rights

188
00:12:35,990 --> 00:12:34,720
patents so they just went ahead and

189
00:12:37,670 --> 00:12:36,000
built airplanes

190
00:13:18,829 --> 00:12:37,680
hot air balloons this is how it started

191
00:13:18,839 --> 00:13:35,030
so

192
00:13:38,949 --> 00:13:36,629
that's the biggest difference between a

193
00:13:42,550 --> 00:13:38,959
planetarium and an observatory

194
00:13:42,790 --> 00:13:42,560
a lot of times uh teachers will mix them

195
00:13:44,230 --> 00:13:42,800
up

196
00:13:45,189 --> 00:13:44,240
people come into the planetarium for the

197
00:13:46,790 --> 00:13:45,199
first time and they'll say well what

198
00:13:48,550 --> 00:13:46,800
they do is they open the ceiling up

199
00:13:50,310 --> 00:13:48,560
and show you what the sky looks like

200
00:13:51,750 --> 00:13:50,320
well that doesn't happen in the

201
00:13:53,110 --> 00:13:51,760
planetarium that happens only in an

202
00:13:55,910 --> 00:13:53,120
observatory so there is

203
00:13:57,189 --> 00:13:55,920
a very distinct difference there is a

204
00:13:58,470 --> 00:13:57,199
machine of course in the middle of the

205
00:14:03,670 --> 00:13:58,480
room

206
00:14:07,430 --> 00:14:03,680
here and in this case its telescope

207
00:14:09,030 --> 00:14:07,440
here's the edge of the sun here's the

208
00:14:10,790 --> 00:14:09,040
the one edge of the sun i'm not sure if

209
00:14:11,430 --> 00:14:10,800
that's leading or the following edge i'd

210
00:14:13,590 --> 00:14:11,440
have to

211
00:14:14,710 --> 00:14:13,600
figure out the optics i believe that's

212
00:14:17,189 --> 00:14:14,720
probably the

213
00:14:20,949 --> 00:14:17,199
following edge there let me go across

214
00:14:56,829 --> 00:14:20,959
the disc here again there's those spots

215
00:15:15,110 --> 00:15:10,829
do

216
00:15:17,350 --> 00:15:15,120
the space telescope becomes operational

217
00:15:19,670 --> 00:15:17,360
we will be able to see 10 times farther

218
00:15:22,150 --> 00:15:19,680
into space than we can now

219
00:15:24,629 --> 00:15:22,160
we will be able to see objects 50 times

220
00:15:27,350 --> 00:15:24,639
fainter than we can from the earth

221
00:15:28,030 --> 00:15:27,360
we will increase our visible universe to

222
00:15:31,350 --> 00:15:28,040
a volume

223
00:15:33,509 --> 00:15:31,360
350 times what it is today

224
00:17:11,829 --> 00:15:33,519
think of the exciting discoveries that

225
00:17:15,270 --> 00:17:13,189
first of all the guys that flew in these

226
00:17:16,870 --> 00:17:15,280
flights were pretty small in statute

227
00:17:19,110 --> 00:17:16,880
remember in the apollo program in the

228
00:17:21,029 --> 00:17:19,120
early programs the astronaut could be no

229
00:17:22,789 --> 00:17:21,039
taller than 5 foot 11 and weigh no more

230
00:17:24,390 --> 00:17:22,799
than 175 pounds

231
00:17:26,309 --> 00:17:24,400
the reason that was because of the size

232
00:17:45,190 --> 00:17:26,319
of the spacecraft you know

233
00:17:48,870 --> 00:17:46,710
battle has it look looks good here

234
00:17:50,710 --> 00:17:48,880
flight good agreement okay who's that

235
00:17:54,230 --> 00:17:50,720
either that's once he looks good but

236
00:17:54,240 --> 00:18:26,830
okay we're going capcom let's get really

237
00:18:26,840 --> 00:19:36,830
do

238
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:50,830
so

239
00:20:16,789 --> 00:20:04,830
oh

240
00:20:40,549 --> 00:20:18,830
he's got one with rubber bands over

241
00:21:00,830 --> 00:20:43,590
anybody want a name oh no you want parts

242
00:21:04,390 --> 00:21:02,549
okay

243
00:21:06,310 --> 00:21:04,400
in the past few minutes you've seen just

244
00:21:07,029 --> 00:21:06,320
a portion of the activities that are

245
00:21:10,310 --> 00:21:07,039
carried out

246
00:21:13,110 --> 00:21:10,320
during the workshop sessions many other

247
00:21:14,070 --> 00:21:13,120
activities and stations are conducted to

248
00:21:16,630 --> 00:21:14,080
familiarize

249
00:21:18,710 --> 00:21:16,640
teachers with up-to-date information and

250
00:23:44,950 --> 00:21:18,720
provide an overview of air and space

251
00:23:48,710 --> 00:23:46,310
kevin why are you taking the air and

252
00:23:50,470 --> 00:23:48,720
space workshop here at louis well

253
00:23:52,070 --> 00:23:50,480
my wife took it last year and she had

254
00:23:53,190 --> 00:23:52,080
taken it about seven or eight years

255
00:23:55,669 --> 00:23:53,200
before so she's

256
00:23:57,029 --> 00:23:55,679
actually taking the same workshop twice

257
00:23:58,630 --> 00:23:57,039
and uh

258
00:23:59,990 --> 00:23:58,640
sitting at home and getting all the you

259
00:24:01,590 --> 00:24:00,000
know experience the stories of the

260
00:24:02,149 --> 00:24:01,600
experiences and the fun that she's had

261
00:24:05,430 --> 00:24:02,159
here

262
00:24:07,350 --> 00:24:05,440
i decided it was my turn uh i teach 9th

263
00:24:08,789 --> 00:24:07,360
graders science and

264
00:24:10,470 --> 00:24:08,799
in fact i would have taken it last year

265
00:24:11,750 --> 00:24:10,480
except someone had to stay home and and

266
00:24:13,909 --> 00:24:11,760
watch the kids so

267
00:24:14,789 --> 00:24:13,919
this is my year and my turn for the

268
00:24:16,149 --> 00:24:14,799
workshop

269
00:24:17,990 --> 00:24:16,159
so this year you get to share the

270
00:24:19,430 --> 00:24:18,000
stories with your wife right and she

271
00:24:20,549 --> 00:24:19,440
gets to stay home and take care of the

272
00:24:22,950 --> 00:24:20,559
kids so

273
00:24:23,830 --> 00:24:22,960
i'm really looking forward to a real fun

274
00:24:26,230 --> 00:24:23,840
experience

275
00:24:28,710 --> 00:24:26,240
well that's great thanks thank you well

276
00:24:30,390 --> 00:24:28,720
i am basically an english teacher

277
00:24:32,149 --> 00:24:30,400
but every year my students are allowed

278
00:24:33,909 --> 00:24:32,159
to do an in-depth study

279
00:24:37,110 --> 00:24:33,919
on any subject that they choose they

280
00:24:38,870 --> 00:24:37,120
contract to do this program on their own

281
00:24:41,190 --> 00:24:38,880
and so many of them in recent years have

282
00:24:43,190 --> 00:24:41,200
been interested in flying in space

283
00:24:45,350 --> 00:24:43,200
and it's something that i know so little

284
00:24:47,350 --> 00:24:45,360
about i thought this was an opportunity

285
00:24:48,549 --> 00:24:47,360
for me to learn that's great why do you

286
00:24:50,870 --> 00:24:48,559
think the students are so much

287
00:24:53,110 --> 00:24:50,880
interested in there in space

288
00:24:55,990 --> 00:24:53,120
well because it's coming thing and the

289
00:24:58,830 --> 00:24:56,000
possibility of living sometime

290
00:25:00,390 --> 00:24:58,840
on another planet you know is very

291
00:25:01,830 --> 00:25:00,400
feasible

292
00:25:04,230 --> 00:25:01,840
especially when you look back at all the

293
00:25:05,430 --> 00:25:04,240
other buck rogers things that we've had

294
00:25:07,029 --> 00:25:05,440
in the past

295
00:25:10,710 --> 00:25:07,039
so the dreams of yesterday really do

296
00:25:12,470 --> 00:25:10,720
become the realities of it exactly

297
00:25:14,149 --> 00:25:12,480
the future is where our young people

298
00:25:17,510 --> 00:25:14,159
will live

299
00:25:20,950 --> 00:25:17,520
we owe them the opportunity to dream

300
00:25:24,470 --> 00:25:20,960
to wonder to imagine

301
00:25:26,630 --> 00:25:24,480
to research and experiment who knows

302
00:25:29,029 --> 00:25:26,640
what experience will become a memorable

303
00:25:31,190 --> 00:25:29,039
moment in their young lives

304
00:26:07,510 --> 00:25:31,200
that possibly could change the course of

305
00:26:12,710 --> 00:26:09,669
teaching air and space concepts can

306
00:26:37,830 --> 00:26:12,720
motivate an excited young person

307
00:26:37,840 --> 00:27:18,830
you
