00:03:26,630 provide to the astronaut crew has an effect on their ability to 138 00:03:26,630 --> 00:03:26,640 has an effect on their ability to 139 00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:29,350 has an effect on their ability to perform critical mission tasks 140 00:03:29,350 --> 00:03:29,360 perform critical mission tasks 141 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,550 perform critical mission tasks you don't get a second chance in space 142 00:03:32,550 --> 00:03:32,560 you don't get a second chance in space 143 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,869 you don't get a second chance in space well it just said put myself in a 144 00:03:34,869 --> 00:03:34,879 well it just said put myself in a 145 00:03:34,879 --> 00:03:36,789 well it just said put myself in a position if i have to be the one that's 146 00:03:36,789 --> 00:03:36,799 position if i have to be the one that's 147 00:03:36,799 --> 00:03:38,550 position if i have to be the one that's going to have all of this thrust behind 148 00:03:38,550 --> 00:03:38,560 going to have all of this thrust behind 149 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:40,789 going to have all of this thrust behind me i would want to have the thing done 150 00:03:40,789 --> 00:03:40,799 me i would want to have the thing done 151 00:03:40,799 --> 00:03:41,589 me i would want to have the thing done right 152 00:03:41,589 --> 00:03:41,599 right 153 00:03:41,599 --> 00:03:44,710 right because uh one chance is all you have 154 00:03:44,710 --> 00:03:44,720 because uh one chance is all you have 155 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,550 because uh one chance is all you have safety is always a stress so that 156 00:03:46,550 --> 00:03:46,560 safety is always a stress so that 157 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,869 safety is always a stress so that everyone understands it that their lives 158 00:03:48,869 --> 00:03:48,879 everyone understands it that their lives 159 00:03:48,879 --> 00:03:51,270 everyone understands it that their lives and other lives depend on our safety and 160 00:03:51,270 --> 00:03:51,280 and other lives depend on our safety and 161 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,030 and other lives depend on our safety and the importance of making sure that we do 162 00:03:53,030 --> 00:03:53,040 the importance of making sure that we do 163 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,910 the importance of making sure that we do our job right the first time and safely 164 00:03:55,910 --> 00:03:55,920 our job right the first time and safely 165 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:57,830 our job right the first time and safely but carry a good load on our shoulders 166 00:03:57,830 --> 00:03:57,840 but carry a good load on our shoulders 167 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,390 but carry a good load on our shoulders you got to make sure that 168 00:04:00,390 --> 00:04:00,400 you got to make sure that 169 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:01,990 you got to make sure that the quality assurance that's involved in 170 00:04:01,990 --> 00:04:02,000 the quality assurance that's involved in 171 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,390 the quality assurance that's involved in this type of work 172 00:04:04,390 --> 00:04:04,400 this type of work 173 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:05,429 this type of work is 174 00:04:05,429 --> 00:04:05,439 is 175 00:04:05,439 --> 00:04:07,830 is correct and safe because when it once 176 00:04:07,830 --> 00:04:07,840 correct and safe because when it once 177 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,270 correct and safe because when it once they launch that 178 00:04:09,270 --> 00:04:09,280 they launch that 179 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:10,949 they launch that bird off if something's wrong there's no

00:04:36,550 --> 00:04:36,560 them to build a a good product and 201 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,430 them to build a a good product and and i think we are now it's checked 202 00:04:39,430 --> 00:04:39,440 and i think we are now it's checked 203 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,510 and i think we are now it's checked double checked triple checked before it 204 00:04:41,510 --> 00:04:41,520 double checked triple checked before it 205 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,070 double checked triple checked before it leaves here you know we work together 206 00:04:44,070 --> 00:04:44,080 leaves here you know we work together 207 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:45,830 leaves here you know we work together and 208 00:04:45,830 --> 00:04:45,840 and 209 00:04:45,840 --> 00:04:47,990 and make sure the job's done right the first 210 00:04:47,990 --> 00:04:48,000 make sure the job's done right the first 211 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:49,270 make sure the job's done right the first time 212 00:04:49,270 --> 00:04:49,280 time 213 00:04:49,280 --> 00:04:50,710 time throughout the history of the space 214 00:04:50,710 --> 00:04:50,720 throughout the history of the space 215 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,870 throughout the history of the space program the pursuit of quality has 216 00:04:52,870 --> 00:04:52,880 program the pursuit of quality has 217 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,350 program the pursuit of quality has taught us that as good as we are today 218 00:04:55,350 --> 00:04:55,360 taught us that as good as we are today 219 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,189 taught us that as good as we are today we must be better tomorrow 220 00:04:57,189 --> 00:04:57,199 we must be better tomorrow 221 00:04:57,199 --> 00:04:59,990 we must be better tomorrow not by a little but by a lot 222 00:04:59,990 --> 00:05:00,000 not by a little but by a lot 223 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,510 not by a little but by a lot perhaps the greatest lesson we have 224 00:05:01,510 --> 00:05:01,520 perhaps the greatest lesson we have 225 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,150 perhaps the greatest lesson we have learned is that the quality process 226 00:05:04,150 --> 00:05:04,160 learned is that the quality process 227 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:05,830 learned is that the quality process is continuous 228 00:05:05,830 --> 00:05:05,840 is continuous 229 00:05:05,840 --> 00:05:07,749 is continuous screw the next step let's do it better 230 00:05:07,749 --> 00:05:07,759 screw the next step let's do it better 231 00:05:07,759 --> 00:05:10,310 screw the next step let's do it better continuous improvement continue continue 232 00:05:10,310 --> 00:05:10,320 continuous improvement continue continue 233 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:11,510 continuous improvement continue continue to continue 234 00:05:11,510 --> 00:05:11,520 to continue 235 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:12,790 to continue that's something we have to just keep 236 00:05:12,790 --> 00:05:12,800 that's something we have to just keep 237 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,430 that's something we have to just keep preaching to ourselves over and over 238 00:05:15,430 --> 00:05:15,440 preaching to ourselves over and over 239 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,150 preaching to ourselves over and over we ask questions we won't we won't just 240 00:05:18,150 --> 00:05:18,160 we ask questions we won't we won't just 241 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,029 we ask questions we won't we won't just take it as it is we look at it we 242 00:05:21,029 --> 00:05:21,039 take it as it is we look at it we 243 00:05:21,039 --> 00:05:22,629 take it as it is we look at it we people come in and if they're not sure 244 00:05:22,629 --> 00:05:22,639 people come in and if they're not sure 245 00:05:22,639 --> 00:05:24,469 people come in and if they're not sure they'll ask questions before we may let 246 00:05:24,469 --> 00:05:24,479 they'll ask questions before we may let 247 00:05:24,479 --> 00:05:26,950 they'll ask questions before we may let it go now there's even at the slightest 248 00:05:26,950 --> 00:05:26,960 it go now there's even at the slightest 249 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:28,469 it go now there's even at the slightest thing they'll come up and ask a question 250 00:05:28,469 --> 00:05:28,479 thing they'll come up and ask a question 251 00:05:28,479 --> 00:05:30,629 thing they'll come up and ask a question about a piece of hardware maybe not 252 00:05:30,629 --> 00:05:30,639 about a piece of hardware maybe not 253 00:05:30,639 --> 00:05:31,990 about a piece of hardware maybe not perfect or 254 00:05:31,990 --> 00:05:32,000 perfect or 255 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,270 perfect or and that's what's really making the 256 00:05:33,270 --> 00:05:33,280 and that's what's really making the 257 00:05:33,280 --> 00:05:36,150 and that's what's really making the system a lot better that's really how 258 00:05:36,150 --> 00:05:36,160 system a lot better that's really how 259 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:37,990 system a lot better that's really how we're building better hardwares because 260 00:05:37,990 --> 00:05:38,000 we're building better hardwares because 261 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:39,909 we're building better hardwares because more people are involved more people are 262 00:05:39,909 --> 00:05:39,919 more people are involved more people are 263 00:05:39,919 --> 00:05:42,230 more people are involved more people are looking at it and more people 264 00:05:42,230 --> 00:05:42,240 looking at it and more people 265 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:43,909 looking at it and more people are sure that it's a good piece of 266 00:05:43,909 --> 00:05:43,919 are sure that it's a good piece of 267 00:05:43,919 --> 00:05:45,670 are sure that it's a good piece of hardware 268 00:05:45,670 --> 00:05:45,680 hardware 269 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,670 hardware america has long been the leader in 270 00:05:47,670 --> 00:05:47,680 america has long been the leader in 271 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,070 america has long been the leader in technological achievement and nowhere is 272 00:05:50,070 --> 00:05:50,080 technological achievement and nowhere is 273 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,310 technological achievement and nowhere is that technical leadership more visibly 274 00:05:52,310 --> 00:05:52,320 that technical leadership more visibly 275 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,390 that technical leadership more visibly displayed than here in the national air 276 00:05:54,390 --> 00:05:54,400 displayed than here in the national air 277 00:05:54,400 --> 00:06:09,909 displayed than here in the national air and space museum 278 00:06:09,909 --> 00:06:09,919 279 00:06:09,919 --> 00:06:11,909 but no matter how well a spacecraft is 280 00:06:11,909 --> 00:06:11,919 but no matter how well a spacecraft is 281 00:06:11,919 --> 00:06:12,790 but no matter how well a spacecraft is made 282 00:06:12,790 --> 00:06:12,800 made 283 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,189 made safety margins and manned space flight 284 00:06:15,189 --> 00:06:15,199 safety margins and manned space flight 285 00:06:15,199 --> 00:06:17,270 safety margins and manned space flight will always be small 286 00:06:17,270 --> 00:06:17,280 will always be small 287 00:06:17,280 --> 00:06:19,990 will always be small our challenge is to drive those risks to 288 00:06:19,990 --> 00:06:20,000 our challenge is to drive those risks to 289 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,150 our challenge is to drive those risks to as low a level as possible 290 00:06:22,150 --> 00:06:22,160 as low a level as possible 291 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,469 as low a level as possible the very least thing that uh may come up 292 00:06:24,469 --> 00:06:24,479 the very least thing that uh may come up 293 00:06:24,479 --> 00:06:28,070 the very least thing that uh may come up is a potential is looked at thoroughly 294 00:06:28,070 --> 00:06:28,080 is a potential is looked at thoroughly 295 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,510 is a potential is looked at thoroughly and whatever ends we have to go to as a 296 00:06:31,510 --> 00:06:31,520 and whatever ends we have to go to as a 297 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,350 and whatever ends we have to go to as a overall program not just us in our 298 00:06:33,350 --> 00:06:33,360 overall program not just us in our 299 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,029 overall program not just us in our contract but 300 00:06:35,029 --> 00:06:35,039 contract but 301 00:06:35,039 --> 00:06:36,950 contract but whoever's involved they go to that 302 00:06:36,950 --> 00:06:36,960 whoever's involved they go to that 303 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,749 whoever's involved they go to that length to assure that 304 00:06:39,749 --> 00:06:39,759 length to assure that 305 00:06:39,759 --> 00:06:42,070 length to assure that there is safety on that vehicle 306 00:06:42,070 --> 00:06:42,080 there is safety on that vehicle 307 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,150 there is safety on that vehicle this is a very unforgiving engine there 308 00:06:44,150 --> 00:06:44,160 this is a very unforgiving engine there 309 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,309 this is a very unforgiving engine there are very few components that are not 310 00:06:46,309 --> 00:06:46,319 are very few components that are not 311 00:06:46,319 --> 00:06:47,510 are very few components that are not critical 312 00:06:47,510 --> 00:06:47,520 critical 313 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,469 critical and it has worked well in the past and 314 00:06:50,469 --> 00:06:50,479 and it has worked well in the past and 315 00:06:50,479 --> 00:06:52,309 and it has worked well in the past and we'd like to keep it that way 316 00:06:52,309 --> 00:06:52,319 we'd like to keep it that way 317 00:06:52,319 --> 00:06:54,070 we'd like to keep it that way any time there's work done on the engine 318 00:06:54,070 --> 00:06:54,080 any time there's work done on the engine 319 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:55,510 any time there's work done on the engine there's a government 320 00:06:55,510 --> 00:06:55,520 there's a government 321 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,830 there's a government inspector here the extra set of eyes are 322 00:06:57,830 --> 00:06:57,840 inspector here the extra set of eyes are 323 00:06:57,840 --> 00:07:00,710 inspector here the extra set of eyes are just ensure that everything's done right 324 00:07:00,710 --> 00:07:00,720 just ensure that everything's done right 325 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,469 just ensure that everything's done right tolerance for arrow is 326 00:07:02,469 --> 00:07:02,479 tolerance for arrow is 327 00:07:02,479 --> 00:07:04,950 tolerance for arrow is almost zero here and that's why we have 328 00:07:04,950 --> 00:07:04,960 almost zero here and that's why we have 329 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:06,870 almost zero here and that's why we have so much quality 330 00:07:06,870 --> 00:07:06,880 so much quality 331 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:08,150 so much quality it's just 332 00:07:08,150 --> 00:07:08,160 it's just 333 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:09,430 it's just something that 334 00:07:09,430 --> 00:07:09,440 something that 335 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,909 something that where every detail has to be looked into 336 00:07:11,909 --> 00:07:11,919 where every detail has to be looked into 337 00:07:11,919 --> 00:07:14,710 where every detail has to be looked into there's just no compromises 338 00:07:14,710 --> 00:07:14,720 there's just no compromises 339 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,110 there's just no compromises you're at risk these people that ride 340 00:07:17,110 --> 00:07:17,120 you're at risk these people that ride 341 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,909 you're at risk these people that ride this vehicle are at risk 342 00:07:19,909 --> 00:07:19,919 this vehicle are at risk 343 00:07:19,919 --> 00:07:22,870 this vehicle are at risk it's just 100 percent all the way 344 00:07:22,870 --> 00:07:22,880 it's just 100 percent all the way 345 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:24,710 it's just 100 percent all the way if there was a failure in the safety 346 00:07:24,710 --> 00:07:24,720 if there was a failure in the safety 347 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:25,589 if there was a failure in the safety chain 348 00:07:25,589 --> 00:07:25,599 chain 349 00:07:25,599 --> 00:07:27,589 chain we could have an aborted mission or the 350 00:07:27,589 --> 00:07:27,599 we could have an aborted mission or the 351 00:07:27,599 --> 00:07:29,670 we could have an aborted mission or the possibility of loss of life and loss of 352 00:07:29,670 --> 00:07:29,680 possibility of loss of life and loss of 353 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:30,629 possibility of loss of life and loss of vehicle 354 00:07:30,629 --> 00:07:30,639 vehicle 355 00:07:30,639 --> 00:07:34,230 vehicle the chain is broken if i don't do my job 356 00:07:34,230 --> 00:07:34,240 the chain is broken if i don't do my job 357 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:35,830 the chain is broken if i don't do my job in many ways 358 00:07:35,830 --> 00:07:35,840 in many ways 359 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,150 in many ways leadership is the key to safety and 360 00:07:38,150 --> 00:07:38,160 leadership is the key to safety and 361 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,070 leadership is the key to safety and reliability 362 00:07:40,070 --> 00:07:40,080 reliability 363 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:41,670 reliability the management team assembled within 364 00:07:41,670 --> 00:07:41,680 the management team assembled within 365 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,550 the management team assembled within nasa and industry is one of the finest 366 00:07:44,550 --> 00:07:44,560 nasa and industry is one of the finest 367 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,710 nasa and industry is one of the finest anywhere 368 00:07:46,710 --> 00:07:46,720 anywhere 369 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:50,150 anywhere but only a strong and open relationship 370 00:07:50,150 --> 00:07:50,160 but only a strong and open relationship 371 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,710 but only a strong and open relationship between employees and management will 372 00:07:52,710 --> 00:07:52,720 between employees and management will 373 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,510 between employees and management will assure total quality 374 00:07:55,510 --> 00:07:55,520 assure total quality 375 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,029 assure total quality management does not have all of the 376 00:07:57,029 --> 00:07:57,039 management does not have all of the 377 00:07:57,039 --> 00:07:58,390 management does not have all of the answers 378 00:07:58,390 --> 00:07:58,400 answers 379 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,309 answers many of you have ideas about how your 380 00:08:00,309 --> 00:08:00,319 many of you have ideas about how

department we have a weekly safety meeting among 416 00:08:35,190 --> 00:08:35,200 we have a weekly safety meeting among 417 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,070 we have a weekly safety meeting among the crews and during that time we talk 418 00:08:38,070 --> 00:08:38,080 the crews and during that time we talk 419 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,949 the crews and during that time we talk about safety any problems any questions 420 00:08:40,949 --> 00:08:40,959 about safety any problems any questions 421 00:08:40,959 --> 00:08:43,269 about safety any problems any questions concerns anything are brought up and 422 00:08:43,269 --> 00:08:43,279 concerns anything are brought up and 423 00:08:43,279 --> 00:08:45,910 concerns anything are brought up and they're addressed and looked into 424 00:08:45,910 --> 00:08:45,920 they're addressed and looked into 425 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,150 they're addressed and looked into management has safety flow down 426 00:08:48,150 --> 00:08:48,160 management has safety flow down 427 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,110 management has safety flow down bulletins just every aspect of safety if 428 00:08:51,110 --> 00:08:51,120 bulletins just every aspect of safety if 429 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,190 bulletins just every aspect of safety if there is a problem somewhere and it's 430 00:08:53,190 --> 00:08:53,200 there is a problem somewhere and it's 431 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,910 there is a problem somewhere and it's brought up then management will send out 432 00:08:55,910 --> 00:08:55,920 brought up then management will send out 433 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,230 brought up then management will send out a bulletin the whole plant can see what 434 00:08:58,230 --> 00:08:58,240 a bulletin the whole plant can see what 435 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,470 a bulletin the whole plant can see what the safety problem was and that way 436 00:09:00,470 --> 00:09:00,480 the safety problem was and that way 437 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,190 the safety problem was and that way maybe that same safety problem can be 438 00:09:03,190 --> 00:09:03,200 maybe that same safety problem can be 439 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,389 maybe that same safety problem can be avoided to happen the next time around 440 00:09:06,389 --> 00:09:06,399 avoided to happen the next time around 441 00:09:06,399 --> 00:09:08,310 avoided to happen the next time around

i see it i'll tell you here on the back of my neck it just 534 00:10:42,230 --> 00:10:42,240 you here on the back of my neck it just 535 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,470 you here on the back of my neck it just raises up i get the willies i'm breaking 536 00:10:44,470 --> 00:10:44,480 raises up i get the willies i'm breaking 537 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:45,990 raises up i get the willies i'm breaking out in goosebumps now just thinking 538 00:10:45,990 --> 00:10:46,000 out in goosebumps now just thinking 539 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:49,110 out in goosebumps now just thinking about it i think it'll be just 540 00:10:49,110 --> 00:10:49,120 about it i think it'll be just 541 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:50,790 about it i think it'll be just like i say one of the highlights of my 542 00:10:50,790 --> 00:10:50,800 like i say one of the highlights of my 543 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,430 like i say one of the highlights of my life and something that would 544 00:10:53,430 --> 00:10:53,440 life and something that would 545 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:58,150 life and something that would will give me a memory forever 546 00:10:58,150 --> 00:10:58,160 547 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,870 the space shuttle

--> 00:11:02,320 in space 551 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,550 in space allowing us to explore the possibilities 552 00:11:04,550 --> 00:11:04,560 allowing us to explore the possibilities 553 00:11:04,560 --> 00:11:06,150 allowing us to explore the possibilities beyond the boundaries we have known 554 00:11:06,150 --> 00:11:06,160 beyond the boundaries we have known 555 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:07,829 beyond the boundaries we have known before 556 00:11:07,829 --> 00:11:07,839 before 557 00:11:07,839 --> 00:11:09,750 before space station freedom 558 00:11:09,750 --> 00:11:09,760 space station freedom 559 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,550 space station freedom flights to the lunar surface mars and 560 00:11:12,550 --> 00:11:12,560 flights to the lunar surface mars and 561 00:11:12,560 --> 00:11:14,150 flights to the lunar surface mars and beyond 562 00:11:14,150 --> 00:11:14,160 beyond 563 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,870 beyond all this depends ultimately on you 564 00:11:16,870 --> 00:11:16,880 all this depends ultimately on you 565 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,350 all this depends ultimately on you the challenge ahead is for each and 566 00:11:19,350 --> 00:11:19,360 the challenge ahead is for each and 567 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,310 the challenge ahead is for each and every one of you to do your job as if 568 00:11:22,310 --> 00:11:22,320 every one of you to do your job as if 569 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,310 every one of you to do your job as if you were going to don the suit 570 00:11:24,310 --> 00:11:24,320 you were going to don the suit 571 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:25,990 you were going to don the suit strap on the harness 572 00:11:25,990 --> 00:11:26,000 strap on the harness 573 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,790 strap on the harness and slip on the helmet and i don't think 574 00:11:28,790 --> 00:11:28,800 and slip on the helmet and i don't think 575 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:30,949 and slip on the helmet and i don't think the uh an astronaut that would come out 576 00:11:30,949 --> 00:11:30,959 the uh an astronaut that would come out 577 00:11:30,959 --> 00:11:32,949 the uh an astronaut that would come out to our facility and and question anyone 578 00:11:32,949 --> 00:11:32,959 to our facility and and question anyone 579 00:11:32,959 --> 00:11:34,389 to our facility and and question anyone that works in this plant 580 00:11:34,389 -->
