houston discovery 52 00:02:33,190 --> 00:02:32,400 i think the legacy of the space shuttle 53 00:02:35,110 --> 00:02:33,200 is 54 00:02:38,070 --> 00:02:35,120 it showed us that we could really work 55 00:02:40,470 --> 00:02:38,080 in space you know we the space shuttle 56 00:02:43,190 --> 00:02:40,480 has done an unbelievable variety of 57 00:02:47,670 --> 00:02:45,430 the first foothold beyond earth will be 58 00:02:49,990 --> 00:02:47,680 the international space station an 59 00:02:51,990 --> 00:02:50,000 orbital laboratory that is re-energized 60 00:02:54,070 --> 00:02:52,000 in the agency's new direction 61 00:02:55,670 --> 00:02:54,080 space station is an amazing platform 62 00:02:57,910 --> 00:02:55,680 because you can do experiments there 63 00:03:00,149 --> 00:02:57,920 that can't be done anywhere else at 64 00:03:02,309 --> 00:03:00,159 houston this is patient space to ground 65 00:03:04,550 --> 00:03:02,319 to for fly around there's little doubt 66 00:03:07,110 --> 00:03:04,560 that the space station has probably been 67 00:03:08,790 --> 00:03:07,120 the largest civilian 68 00:03:11,030 --> 00:03:08,800 international cooperative science and 69 00:03:14,149 -->

in the next decade you're going to 85 00:03:49,350 --> 00:03:46,879 see a broad 86 00:03:50,789 --> 00:03:49,360 use of the space station by non-nasa 87 00:03:52,470 --> 00:03:50,799 organizations 88 00:03:54,149 --> 00:03:52,480 and those uses are going to revolve 89 00:03:55,910 --> 00:03:54,159 around national needs and things like 90 00:03:58,309 --> 00:03:55,920 public health 91 00:04:00,070 --> 00:03:58,319 energy and environmental applications i 92 00:04:02,149 --> 00:04:00,080 think if you if you look at the model 93 00:04:03,589 --> 00:04:02,159 kind of a low earth orbit we're going to 94 00:04:05,190 --> 00:04:03,599 try to make that more commercial let 95 00:04:07,270 --> 00:04:05,200 more commercial companies handle that 96 00:04:09,509 --> 00:04:07,280 business and then nasa will focus more 97 00:04:11,910 --> 00:04:09,519 beyond low earth orbit we will prepare 98 00:04:13,830 --> 00:04:11,920 astronauts for longer trips in space 99 00:04:15,990 --> 00:04:13,840 while
