1 00:01:04,879 --> 00:01:06,630 columbia houston simo on air to ground 2 00:01:06,630 --> 00:01:06,640 columbia houston simo on air to ground 3 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:13,190 columbia houston simo on air to ground one and two when you're ready 4 00:01:13,190 --> 00:01:13,200 5 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:15,510 we're ready 6 00:01:15,510 --> 00:01:15,520 we're ready 7 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,749 we're ready dr jim the mmt 8 00:01:17,749 --> 00:01:17,759 dr jim the mmt 9 00:01:17,759 --> 00:01:20,149 dr jim the mmt had all players in on the meeting 10 00:01:20,149 --> 00:01:20,159 had all players in on the meeting 11 00:01:20,159 --> 00:01:22,070 had all players in on the meeting right through from the factory and the 12 00:01:22,070 --> 00:01:22,080 right through from the factory and the 13 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,950 right through from the factory and the consensus is they just do not understand 14 00:01:24,950 --> 00:01:24,960 consensus is they just do not understand 15 00:01:24,960 --> 00:01:28,149 consensus is they just do not understand the behavior of fuel cell 2 16 00:01:28,149 --> 00:01:28,159 the behavior of fuel cell 2 17 00:01:28,159 --> 00:01:29,910 the behavior of fuel cell 2 even though your folks efforts have done 18 00:01:29,910 --> 00:01:29,920 even though your folks efforts have done 19 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:31,990 even though your folks efforts have done a good job towards stabilizing the 20 00:01:31,990 --> 00:01:32,000 a good job towards stabilizing the 21 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,030 a good job towards stabilizing the problem it's significantly out of family 22 00:01:35,030 --> 00:01:35,040 problem it's significantly out of family 23 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:36,630 problem it's significantly out of family and so 24 00:01:36,630 --> 00:01:36,640 and so 25 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:37,590 and so it will 26 00:01:37,590 --> 00:01:37,600 it will 27 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:39,030 it will shorten the mission 28 00:01:39,030 --> 00:01:39,040 shorten the mission 29 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,590 shorten the mission and we're looking at a tig 30 00:01:41,590 --> 00:01:41,600 and we're looking at a tig 31 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:43,749 and we're looking at a tig on tuesday for us down here that's in an 32 00:01:43,749 --> 00:01:43,759 on tuesday for us down here that's in an 33 00:01:43,759 --> 00:01:45,190 on tuesday for us down here that's in an met 34 00:01:45,190 --> 00:01:45,200 met 35 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:46,550 met of 3 36 00:01:46,550 --> 00:01:46,560 of 3 37 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:47,990 of 3 22 38 00:01:47,990 --> 00:01:48,000 22 39 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,749 22 14. 40 00:01:49,749 --> 00:01:49,759 14. 41 00:01:49,759 --> 00:01:51,190 14. and of course we're looking at the 42 00:01:51,190 --> 00:01:51,200 and of course we're looking at the 43 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,069 and of course we're looking at the various types of entries looking at 44 00:01:54,069 --> 00:01:54,079 various types of entries looking at 45 00:01:54,079 --> 00:01:56,550 various types of entries looking at procedures to reduce the load loss to 46 00:01:56,550 --> 00:01:56,560 procedures to reduce the load loss to 47 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,550 procedures to reduce the load loss to one fuel cell type procedures and we'll 48 00:01:58,550 --> 00:01:58,560 one fuel cell type procedures and we'll 49 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,230 one fuel cell type procedures and we'll be discussing those over the next couple 50 00:02:00,230 --> 00:02:00,240 be discussing those over the next couple 51 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:05,670 be discussing those over the next couple hours 52 00:02:05,670 --> 00:02:05,680 53 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:07,350 okay that's certainly disappointed but 54 00:02:07,350 --> 00:02:07,360 okay that's certainly disappointed but 55 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:08,869 okay that's certainly disappointed but we know you guys put your best effort 56 00:02:08,869 --> 00:02:08,879 we know you guys put your best effort 57 00:02:08,879 --> 00:02:10,229 we know you guys put your best effort forward and you're doing the right thing 58 00:02:10,229 --> 00:02:10,239 forward and you're doing the right thing 59 00:02:10,239 --> 00:02:12,229 forward and you're doing the right thing and we appreciate all the work that's 60 00:02:12,229 --> 00:02:12,239 and we appreciate all the work that's 61 00:02:12,239 --> 00:02:14,869 and we appreciate all the work that's going into that 3 2 14. 62 00:02:14,869 --> 00:02:14,879 going into that 3 2 14. 63 00:02:14,879 --> 00:02:16,790 going into that 3 2 14. and i imagine between now and then we'll 64 00:02:16,790 --> 00:02:16,800 and i imagine between now and then we'll 65 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:18,070 and i imagine between now and then we'll keep marching forward with as much 66 00:02:18,070 --> 00:02:18,080 keep marching forward with as much 67 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,070 keep marching forward with as much science as we can 68 00:02:20,070 --> 00:02:20,080 science as we can 69 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:21,589 science as we can exactly right if you could continue with 70 00:02:21,589 --> 00:02:21,599 exactly right if you could continue with 71 00:02:21,599 --> 00:02:23,910 exactly right if you could continue with the nominal timeline for now for uh 72 00:02:23,910 --> 00:02:23,920 the nominal timeline for now for uh 73 00:02:23,920 --> 00:02:26,309 the nominal timeline for now for uh completing as much science as possible 74 00:02:26,309 --> 00:02:26,319 completing as much science as possible 75 00:02:26,319 --> 00:02:27,670 completing as much science as possible and we've pretty much worked up the 76 00:02:27,670 --> 00:02:27,680 and we've pretty much worked up the 77 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,390 and we've pretty much worked up the procedure to reduce the load and looking 78 00:02:30,390 --> 00:02:30,400 procedure to reduce the load and looking 79 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,229 procedure to reduce the load and looking at potentially eventually safe in a fuel 80 00:02:32,229 --> 00:02:32,239 at potentially eventually safe in a fuel 81 00:02:32,239 --> 00:02:33,750 at potentially eventually safe in a fuel cell but we haven't made that decision 82 00:02:33,750 --> 00:02:33,760 cell but we haven't made that decision 83 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:34,550 cell but we haven't made that decision yet 84 00:02:34,550 --> 00:02:34,560 yet 85 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,390 yet we'll have words for you shortly 86 00:02:36,390 --> 00:02:36,400 we'll have words for you shortly 87 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,110 we'll have words for you shortly if you would like a face to face with 88 00:02:39,110 --> 00:02:39,120 if you would like a face to face with 89 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:40,470 if you would like a face to face with some of the players down here we can 90 00:02:40,470 --> 00:02:40,480 some of the players down here we can 91 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:47,750 some of the players down here we can easily set up an oca video conference 92 00:02:47,750 --> 00:02:47,760 93 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:49,830 yeah that would probably be helpful 94 00:02:49,830 --> 00:02:49,840 yeah that would probably be helpful 95 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,110 yeah that would probably be helpful maybe uh after you've gone through uh 96 00:02:53,110 --> 00:02:53,120 maybe uh after you've gone through uh 97 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,030 maybe uh after you've gone through uh your procedures and worked out your plan 98 00:02:55,030 --> 00:02:55,040 your procedures and worked out your plan 99 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,150 your procedures and worked out your plan and then we can have a face to face 100 00:02:58,150 --> 00:02:58,160 and then we can have a face to face 101 00:02:58,160 --> 00:02:59,430 and then we can have a face to face okay we'll pick a time in the next 102 00:02:59,430 --> 00:02:59,440 okay we'll pick a time in the next 103 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,070 okay we'll pick a time in the next little while here 104 00:03:02,070 --> 00:03:02,080 little while here 105 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,470 little while here questions for you hello from rockford 106 00:03:04,470 --> 00:03:04,480 questions for you hello from rockford 107 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,309 questions for you hello from rockford among the experiments you're conducting 108 00:03:06,309 --> 00:03:06,319 among the experiments you're conducting 109 00:03:06,319 --> 00:03:09,110 among the experiments you're conducting you're lighting as many as 200 small 110 00:03:09,110 --> 00:03:09,120 you're lighting as many as 200 small 111 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,110 you're lighting as many as 200 small fires to study plans in space does this 112 00:03:11,110 --> 00:03:11,120 fires to study plans in space does this 113 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:21,190 fires to study plans in space does this make you nervous at all 114 00:03:21,190 --> 00:03:21,200 115 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:22,790 one of the things that we work very hard 116 00:03:22,790 --> 00:03:22,800 one of the things that we work very hard 117 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,229 one of the things that we work very hard on the space shuttle program is to be 118 00:03:24,229 --> 00:03:24,239 on the space shuttle program is to be 119 00:03:24,239 --> 00:03:26,710 on the space shuttle program is to be safe we have a safety panel in 120 00:03:26,710 --> 00:03:26,720 safe we have a safety panel in 121 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:27,990 safe we have a safety panel in both at kennedy space center we have 122 00:03:27,990 --> 00:03:28,000 both at kennedy space center we have 123 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:29,910 both at kennedy space center we have safety troops we have safety folks at 124 00:03:29,910 --> 00:03:29,920 safety troops we have safety folks at 125 00:03:29,920 --> 00:03:31,270 safety troops we have safety folks at johnson space center they all worked 126 00:03:31,270 --> 00:03:31,280 johnson space center they all worked 127 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:32,470 johnson space center they all worked very hard to make sure all of our 128 00:03:32,470 --> 00:03:32,480 very hard to make sure all of our 129 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:33,830 very hard to make sure all of our payloads are safe 130 00:03:33,830 --> 00:03:33,840 payloads are safe 131 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:35,750 payloads are safe the combustions on experiments on this 132 00:03:35,750 --> 00:03:35,760 the combustions on experiments on this 133 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,830 the combustions on experiments on this fight of course that extra attention is 134 00:03:37,830 --> 00:03:37,840 fight of course that extra attention is 135 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,430 fight of course that extra attention is one of the reasons why it's taken this 136 00:03:39,430 --> 00:03:39,440 one of the reasons why it's taken this 137 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,270 one of the reasons why it's taken this long to fly rockslide's combustion 138 00:03:41,270 --> 00:03:41,280 long to fly rockslide's combustion 139 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,589 long to fly rockslide's combustion experiments because in order to give the 140 00:03:43,589 --> 00:03:43,599 experiments because in order to give the 141 00:03:43,599 --> 00:03:45,270 experiments because in order to give the science investigators the access they 142 00:03:45,270 --> 00:03:45,280 science investigators the access they 143 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:46,869 science investigators the access they need to run experiments yet still have 144 00:03:46,869 --> 00:03:46,879 need to run experiments yet still have 145 00:03:46,879 --> 00:03:49,110 need to run experiments yet still have the experiments be safe with a very 146 00:03:49,110 --> 00:03:49,120 the experiments be safe with a very 147 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,190 the experiments be safe with a very difficult design issue and we've been 148 00:03:51,190 --> 00:03:51,200 difficult design issue and we've been 149 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,110 difficult design issue and we've been involved in the last stage of that price 150 00:03:53,110 --> 00:03:53,120 involved in the last stage of that price 151 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:54,710 involved in the last stage of that price of process and know that they work very 152 00:03:54,710 --> 00:03:54,720 of process and know that they work very 153 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:55,670 of process and know that they work very hard and 154 00:03:55,670 --> 00:03:55,680 hard and 155 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:56,949 hard and feel completely safe with the 156 00:03:56,949 --> 00:03:56,959 feel completely safe with the 157 00:03:56,959 --> 00:04:02,390 feel completely safe with the experiments we have on board 158 00:04:02,390 --> 00:04:02,400 159 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,710 thank you roger crouch you have managed 160 00:04:04,710 --> 00:04:04,720 thank you roger crouch you have managed 161 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:06,630 thank you roger crouch you have managed missions from the ground but never been 162 00:04:06,630 --> 00:04:06,640 missions from the ground but never been 163 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:08,869 missions from the ground but never been on a flight as we show our viewers some 164 00:04:08,869 --> 00:04:08,879 on a flight as we show our viewers some 165 00:04:08,879 --> 00:04:11,270 on a flight as we show our viewers some pictures of yesterday's lunch describe 166 00:04:11,270 --> 00:04:11,280 pictures of yesterday's lunch describe 167 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,509 pictures of yesterday's lunch describe for us what it felt like and was it what 168 00:04:13,509 --> 00:04:13,519 for us what it felt like and was it what 169 00:04:13,519 --> 00:04:18,789 for us what it felt like and was it what you expected 170 00:04:18,789 --> 00:04:18,799 171 00:04:18,799 --> 00:04:20,710 well it 172 00:04:20,710 --> 00:04:20,720 well it 173 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,870 well it wasn't quite what i expected i expected 174 00:04:22,870 --> 00:04:22,880 wasn't quite what i expected i expected 175 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:24,870 wasn't quite what i expected i expected the first two minutes to be real real 176 00:04:24,870 --> 00:04:24,880 the first two minutes to be real real 177 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:26,710 the first two minutes to be real real take a real long time because the solid 178 00:04:26,710 --> 00:04:26,720 take a real long time because the solid 179 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,870 take a real long time because the solid rocket boosters were the things that 180 00:04:28,870 --> 00:04:28,880 rocket boosters were the things that 181 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,629 rocket boosters were the things that really give you a lot of trust in fact 182 00:04:30,629 --> 00:04:30,639 really give you a lot of trust in fact 183 00:04:30,639 --> 00:04:32,550 really give you a lot of trust in fact though the first two minutes were over 184 00:04:32,550 --> 00:04:32,560 though the first two minutes were over 185 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,629 though the first two minutes were over in about like 20 seconds it seemed to me 186 00:04:34,629 --> 00:04:34,639 in about like 20 seconds it seemed to me 187 00:04:34,639 --> 00:04:36,870 in about like 20 seconds it seemed to me like we were all on the mid deck down 188 00:04:36,870 --> 00:04:36,880 like we were all on the mid deck down 189 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:37,830 like we were all on the mid deck down below 190 00:04:37,830 --> 00:04:37,840 below 191 00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:40,310 below uh doing high fives and shaking hands 192 00:04:40,310 --> 00:04:40,320 uh doing high fives and shaking hands 193 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:41,830 uh doing high fives and shaking hands with each other and after we got to the 194 00:04:41,830 --> 00:04:41,840 with each other and after we got to the 195 00:04:41,840 --> 00:04:43,830 with each other and after we got to the 50 mile limit the commander announced 196 00:04:43,830 --> 00:04:43,840 50 mile limit the commander announced 197 00:04:43,840 --> 00:04:46,070 50 mile limit the commander announced that we were truly in space from an 198 00:04:46,070 --> 00:04:46,080 that we were truly in space from an 199 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,230 that we were truly in space from an astronaut point of view and we were just 200 00:04:48,230 --> 00:04:48,240 astronaut point of view and we were just 201 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,710 astronaut point of view and we were just so elated it was like i guess a little 202 00:04:50,710 --> 00:04:50,720 so elated it was like i guess a little 203 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,390 so elated it was like i guess a little child maybe just screaming and hollering 204 00:04:52,390 --> 00:04:52,400 child maybe just screaming and hollering 205 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:53,830 child maybe just screaming and hollering

211 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:01,749 many of our viewers would like to know 212 00:05:01,749 --> 00:05:01,759 many of our viewers would like to know 213 00:05:01,759 --> 00:05:04,070 many of our viewers would like to know what it's like to be weightless in space 214 00:05:04,070 --> 00:05:04,080 what it's like to be weightless in space 215 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:05,749 what it's like to be weightless in space describe for us what that's like and 216 00:05:05,749 --> 00:05:05,759 describe for us what that's like and 217 00:05:05,759 --> 00:05:11,830 describe for us what that's like and what problems it can pose for you 218 00:05:11,830 --> 00:05:11,840 219 00:05:11,840 --> 00:05:13,909 one of the fun things with flying with 220 00:05:13,909 --> 00:05:13,919 one of the fun things with flying with 221 00:05:13,919 --> 00:05:15,510 one of the fun things with flying with rookies like roger and gregory and 222 00:05:15,510 --> 00:05:15,520 rookies like roger and gregory and 223 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,430 rookies like roger and gregory and tara's other palette specialist is they 224 00:05:17,430 --> 00:05:17,440 tara's other palette specialist is they 225 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:18,790 tara's other palette specialist is they say all the things that you remember 226 00:05:18,790 --> 00:05:18,800 say all the things that you remember 227 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:20,790 say all the things that you remember happened on the first flight both roger 228 00:05:20,790 --> 00:05:20,800 happened on the first flight both roger 229 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:21,990 happened on the first flight both roger and greg have been talking about how 230 00:05:21,990 --> 00:05:22,000 and greg have been talking about how 231 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:23,189 and greg have been talking about how they feel like they're hanging upside 232 00:05:23,189 --> 00:05:23,199 they feel like they're hanging upside 233 00:05:23,199 --> 00:05:25,909 they feel like they're hanging upside down all the time which is true because 234 00:05:25,909 --> 00:05:25,919 down all the time which is true because 235 00:05:25,919 --> 00:05:28,310 down all the time which is true because the fluid tip causes the liquid that's 236 00:05:28,310 --> 00:05:28,320 the fluid tip causes the liquid that's 237 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:29,990 the fluid tip causes the liquid that's normally pulled in your feet to shift up 238 00:05:29,990 --> 00:05:30,000 normally pulled in your feet to shift up 239 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,749 normally pulled in your feet to shift up into your head and it feels like you're 240 00:05:31,749 --> 00:05:31,759 into your head and it feels like you're 241 00:05:31,759 --> 00:05:33,110 into your head and it feels like you're hanging upside down all the time there's 242 00:05:33,110 --> 00:05:33,120 hanging upside down all the time there's 243 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:34,310 hanging upside down all the time there's a lot of things like that that sort of 244 00:05:34,310 --> 00:05:34,320 a lot of things like that that sort of 245 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:35,990 a lot of things like that that sort of catch you by surprise 246 00:05:35,990 --> 00:05:36,000 catch you by surprise 247 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:37,670 catch you by surprise but we've flown a lot of missions now 248 00:05:37,670 --> 00:05:37,680 but we've flown a lot of missions now 249 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,150 but we've flown a lot of missions now where the 83 third space shuttle mission 250 00:05:40,150 --> 00:05:40,160 where the 83 third space shuttle mission 251 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:41,430 where the 83 third space shuttle mission and we've had a lot of experience with 252 00:05:41,430 --> 00:05:41,440 and we've had a lot of experience with 253 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:42,790 and we've had a lot of experience with how to counteract those symptoms and how 254 00:05:42,790 --> 00:05:42,800 how to counteract those symptoms and how 255 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:44,310 how to counteract those symptoms and how to prepare yourself pre-flight and 256 00:05:44,310 --> 00:05:44,320 to prepare yourself pre-flight and 257 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:45,990 to prepare yourself pre-flight and in-flight like drinking lots of fluids 258 00:05:45,990 --> 00:05:46,000 in-flight like drinking lots of fluids 259 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,150 in-flight like drinking lots of fluids and eating lots of high-fiber foods or 260 00:05:48,150 --> 00:05:48,160 and eating lots of high-fiber foods or 261 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,150 and eating lots of high-fiber foods or taking other fiber supplements etc so 262 00:05:50,150 --> 00:05:50,160 taking other fiber supplements etc so 263 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:51,830 taking other fiber supplements etc so we've got a pretty good plan for how to 264 00:05:51,830 --> 00:05:51,840 we've got a pretty good plan for how to 265 00:05:51,840 --> 00:05:53,350 we've got a pretty good plan for how to make sure that we can perform at full 266 00:05:53,350 --> 00:05:53,360 make sure that we can perform at full 267 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,310 make sure that we can perform at full efficiency while we're up here 268 00:05:56,310 --> 00:05:56,320 efficiency while we're up here 269 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,070 efficiency while we're up here i guess the other thing that 270 00:05:58,070 --> 00:05:58,080 i guess the other thing that 271 00:05:58,080 --> 00:05:59,670 i guess the other thing that that you feel the vision is it's just 272 00:05:59,670 --> 00:05:59,680 that you feel the vision is it's just 273 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,749 that you feel the vision is it's just fun to float around in space it's just 274 00:06:01,749 --> 00:06:01,759 fun to float around in space it's just 275 00:06:01,759 --> 00:06:04,710 fun to float around in space it's just fun everything you do is tremendously 276 00:06:04,710 --> 00:06:04,720 fun everything you do is tremendously 277 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,870 fun everything you do is tremendously enjoyable because you're completely free 278 00:06:06,870 --> 00:06:06,880 enjoyable because you're completely free 279 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:08,710 enjoyable because you're completely free to float it's like your little kid in 280 00:06:08,710 --> 00:06:08,720 to float it's like your little kid in 281 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:10,950 to float it's like your little kid in some kind of peter pan movie or 282 00:06:10,950 --> 00:06:10,960 some kind of peter pan movie or 283 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,550 some kind of peter pan movie or something like that 284 00:06:14,550 --> 00:06:14,560 285 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,550 the the comet hellbop of course is 286 00:06:16,550 --> 00:06:16,560 the the comet hellbop of course is 287 00:06:16,560 -->

00:06:44,639 --> 00:06:46,710 imagine that the last time human eyes saw that comet was when they were 312 00:06:46,710 --> 00:06:46,720 saw that comet was when they were 313 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:48,790 saw that comet was when they were building the great pyramids 4 000 years 314 00:06:48,790 --> 00:06:48,800 building the great pyramids 4 000 years 315 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:49,830 building the great pyramids 4 000 years ago 316 00:06:49,830 --> 00:06:49,840 ago 317 00:06:49,840 --> 00:06:51,749 ago and uh it really makes us feel special 318 00:06:51,749 --> 00:06:51,759 and uh

earth in a spaceship 321 00:06:54,319 --> 00:06:56,070 to be orbiting the earth in a spaceship looking at the earth and the comet in 322 00:06:56,070 --> 00:06:56,080 looking at the earth and the comet in 323 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,070 looking at the earth and the comet in the same glance 324 00:06:58,070 --> 00:06:58,080 the same glance 325 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,469 the same glance it

00:07:10,230 certain that that'll involve uh colonization of space and we're real 336 00:07:10,230 --> 00:07:10,240 colonization of space and we're real 337 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:11,350 colonization of space and we're real proud to be 338 00:07:11,350 --> 00:07:11,360 proud to be 339 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:13,510 proud to be part of the baby steps we're taking in 340 00:07:13,510 --> 00:07:13,520 part of the baby steps we're taking in 341 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,430 part of the baby steps we're taking in that direction 342 00:07:15,430 --> 00:07:15,440 that direction 343 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,029 that direction we're wondering you know what would be 344 00:07:17,029 --> 00:07:17,039 we're wondering you know what would be 345 00:07:17,039 --> 00:07:19,350 we're wondering you know what would be seeing you go up in space more often and 346 00:07:19,350 --> 00:07:19,360 seeing you go up in space more often and 347 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,029 seeing you go up in space more often and seeing you on television do you think 348 00:07:21,029 --> 00:07:21,039 seeing you on television do you think 349 00:07:21,039 --> 00:07:23,110 seeing you on television do you think americans still the same enthusiasm for 350 00:07:23,110 --> 00:07:23,120 americans still the same enthusiasm for 351 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:29,110 americans still the same enthusiasm for this they had years ago 352 00:07:29,110 --> 00:07:29,120 353 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:30,230 well one of the things that i was 354 00:07:30,230 --> 00:07:30,240 well one of the things that i was 355 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:31,909 well one of the things that i was privileged to do during the training was 356 00:07:31,909 --> 00:07:31,919 privileged to do during the training was 357 00:07:31,919 --> 00:07:33,670 privileged to do during the training was to go to a lot of elementary schools and 358 00:07:33,670 --> 00:07:33,680 to go to a lot of elementary schools and 359 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,350 to go to a lot of elementary schools and talk to the children there 360 00:07:35,350 --> 00:07:35,360 talk to the children there 361 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,029 talk to the children there and i do believe that there's a certain 362 00:07:37,029 --> 00:07:37,039 and i do believe that there's a certain 363 00:07:37,039 --> 00:07:39,350 and i do believe that there's a certain lethargy in a lot of 364 00:07:39,350 --> 00:07:39,360 lethargy in a lot of 365 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,350 lethargy in a lot of the adults in america about the interest 366 00:07:41,350 --> 00:07:41,360 the adults in america about the interest 367 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,270 the adults in america about the interest in the space program but when you talk 368 00:07:43,270 --> 00:07:43,280 in the space program but when you talk 369 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,749 in the space program but when you talk to kids and you talk to them about space 370 00:07:45,749 --> 00:07:45,759 to kids and you talk to them about space 371 00:07:45,759 --> 00:07:47,670 to kids and you talk to them about space and their minds start to expand you can 372 00:07:47,670 --> 00:07:47,680 and their minds start to expand you can 373 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,510 and their minds start to expand you can just see the energy within the room and 374 00:07:49,510 --> 00:07:49,520 just see the energy within the room and 375 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,749 just see the energy within the room and it's an incredible energy that these 376 00:07:51,749 --> 00:07:51,759 it's an incredible energy that these 377 00:07:51,759 --> 00:07:53,670 it's an incredible energy that these kids generate just in their thought 378 00:07:53,670 --> 00:07:53,680 kids generate just in their thought 379 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,909 kids generate just in their thought processes about going to space and about 380 00:07:55,909 --> 00:07:55,919 processes about going to space and about 381 00:07:55,919 --> 00:07:58,150 processes about going to space and about the space program so i think there's a 382 00:07:58,150 --> 00:07:58,160 the space program so i think there's a 383 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,230 the space program so i think there's a lot of enthusiasm there and maybe people 384 00:08:00,230 --> 00:08:00,240 lot of enthusiasm there and maybe people 385 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:01,350 lot of enthusiasm there and maybe people just 386 00:08:01,350 --> 00:08:01,360 just 387 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,029 just are at a younger age when they're really 388 00:08:03,029 --> 00:08:03,039 are at a younger age when they're really 389 00:08:03,039 --> 00:08:05,350 are at a younger age when they're really feeling it so much the people in the 390 00:08:05,350 --> 00:08:05,360 feeling it so much the people in the 391 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,189 feeling it so much the people in the older age maybe have 392 00:08:07,189 --> 00:08:07,199 older age maybe have 393 00:08:07,199 --> 00:08:37,430 older age maybe have other worries too much right now 394 00:08:37,430 --> 00:08:37,440 395 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,509 okay good heads up and i'll give you the 396 00:08:39,509 --> 00:08:39,519 okay good heads up and i'll give you the 397 00:08:39,519 --> 00:11:16,790 okay good heads up and i'll give you the statuses as i push through these steps 398 00:11:16,790 --> 00:11:16,800 399 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,590 okay that's

though is 461 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,470 though is we've made the decision down here to go 462 00:14:46,470 --> 00:14:46,480 we've made the decision down here to go 463 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,910 we've made the decision down here to go ahead and save fuel cell 2. 464 00:14:49,910 --> 00:14:49,920 ahead and save fuel cell 2. 465 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:52,150 ahead and save fuel cell 2. first however we have a number of power 466 00:14:52,150 --> 00:14:52,160 first however we have a number of power 467 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,790 first however we have a number of power down steps that are will involve both 468 00:14:54,790 --> 00:14:54,800 down steps that are will involve both 469 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:56,949 down steps that are will involve both orbiter and payload equipment for you to 470 00:14:56,949 --> 00:14:56,959 orbiter and payload equipment for you to 471 00:14:56,959 --> 00:14:59,110 orbiter and payload equipment for you to perform and we've come up with some 472 00:14:59,110 --> 00:14:59,120 perform and we've come up with some 473 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:02,550 perform and we've come up with some priorities so we're just going to talk 474 00:15:02,550 --> 00:15:02,560 priorities so we're just going to talk 475 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,389 priorities so we're just going to talk talk you through it a few steps at a 476 00:15:04,389 --> 00:15:04,399 talk you through it a few steps at a 477 00:15:04,399 --> 00:15:05,430 talk you through it a few steps at a time 478 00:15:05,430 --> 00:15:05,440 time 479 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:06,790
