1 00:00:13,930 --> 00:00:12,070 this week at NASA July eleventh is the 2 00:00:16,750 --> 00:00:13,940 new targeted launch date for space 3 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:16,760 shuttle Endeavour on the sts-127 mission 4 00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:19,010 to the international space station by 5 00:00:23,679 --> 00:00:21,650 then NASA managers hope to know what 6 00:00:25,990 --> 00:00:23,689 caused the leak in the shuttles excess 7 00:00:28,420 --> 00:00:26,000 hydrogen venting system that twice 8 00:00:30,460 --> 00:00:28,430 delayed endeavours launch we'll go work 9 00:00:33,610 --> 00:00:30,470 this problem and once we get it fixed 10 00:00:35,950 --> 00:00:33,620 and we're confident that we have a 11 00:00:37,630 --> 00:00:35,960 solution that's that's going to work and 12 00:00:40,060 --> 00:00:37,640 allow us to go fly safely then we'll 13 00:00:42,310 --> 00:00:40,070 proceed forward no one will be happier 14 00:00:45,310 --> 00:00:42,320 to proceed than first-time flyer Chris 15 00:00:47,830 --> 00:00:45,320 Cassidy the York Maine native and US 16 00:00:49,900 --> 00:00:47,840 Navy SEAL sees this mission as the next 17 00:00:51,910 --> 00:00:49,910 step in NASA's ultimate return to 18 00:00:55,300 --> 00:00:51,920 regions first explored by the Apollo 19 00:00:58,810 --> 00:00:55,310 astronauts 40 years ago I think I'm in a 20 00:01:00,850 --> 00:00:58,820 fortunate position as a new astronaut to 21 00:01:03,100 --> 00:01:00,860 be part of a shuttle crew now and maybe 22 00:01:06,569 --> 00:01:03,110 a space station true in my mid career 23 00:01:09,340 --> 00:01:06,579 and the tail end of my career hopefully 24 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:09,350 an exploration mission to the to the 25 00:01:17,309 --> 00:01:10,969 moon so it's a very exciting for me 26 00:01:20,649 --> 00:01:17,319 personally 21 main engine ignition and 27 00:01:23,679 --> 00:01:20,659 liftoff of the Atlas 5 rocket with el 28 00:01:26,349 --> 00:01:23,689 rol across America's first step of a 29 00:01:28,149 --> 00:01:26,359 lasting return to the moon on their way 30 00:01:30,489 --> 00:01:28,159 to the moon now are the lunar 31 00:01:32,289 --> 00:01:30,499 reconnaissance orbiter lro and it's 32 00:01:34,389 --> 00:01:32,299 travel partner the lunar crater 33 00:01:36,999 --> 00:01:34,399 observation and sensing satellite l 34 00:01:39,340 --> 00:01:37,009 cross there in about three to four 35 00:01:41,349 --> 00:01:39,350 months the spent cent or upper stage 36 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:41,359 rocket about the size of a small bus 37 00:01:47,050 --> 00:01:43,850 will crash into a permanently shadowed 38 00:01:49,239 --> 00:01:47,060 polar crater l Cross will then fly into 39 00:01:51,580 --> 00:01:49,249 the resultant plume of dust to measure 40 00:01:54,639 --> 00:01:51,590 mineral content and possible evidence of 41 00:01:57,399 --> 00:01:54,649 water ice before it to collides with the 42 00:01:59,109 --> 00:01:57,409 lunar surface in the late 90s two 43 00:02:02,019 --> 00:01:59,119 different missions around the moon 44 00:02:04,510 --> 00:02:02,029 actually found that there may be water 45 00:02:06,429 --> 00:02:04,520 ice present on the moon needs to be 46 00:02:09,070 --> 00:02:06,439 confirmed and so the l cross mission is 47 00:02:12,370 --> 00:02:09,080 all about confirming if indeed there is 48 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:12,380 stare meanwhile LRO's multi-year 49 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:14,210 orbiting mission will give NASA the 50 00:02:18,670 --> 00:02:16,370 tools to identify lunar landing sites 51 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:18,680 and potential resources measure 52 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:23,090 radiation and try out new technology hey 53 00:02:26,620 --> 00:02:24,770 I'm Mike above and I'm Kevin frizzled 54 00:02:29,140 --> 00:02:26,630 and we're the producers of NASA 360 55 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:29,150 producers Michael Bilbo and Kevin 56 00:02:34,210 --> 00:02:31,610 craigsville savored their Emmy win at 57

00:03:51,370 --> 00:03:49,520 award scholarships and internships to 80 00:03:53,860 --> 00:03:51,380 students pursuing degrees in science 81 00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:53,870 technology engineering and mathematics 82 00:03:59,500 --> 00:03:58,010 the STEM fields the average GPA for the 83 00:04:03,790 --> 00:03:59,510 students that we selected for this 84 00:04:06,190 --> 00:04:03,800 cohort is about 3.85 and that's that's 85 00:04:08,380 --> 00:04:06,200 very good for those hard sciences so we 86 00:04:10,150 --> 00:04:08,390 think that we are getting the best and 87 00:04:12,610 --> 00:04:10,160 the brightest students involved in this 88 00:04:14,350 --> 00:04:12,620 project among the 39 colleges and 89 00:04:16,990 --> 00:04:14,360 universities represented by must 90
