00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:10,470
this week at nasa

2
00:00:16,950 --> 00:00:14,470
juno is on schedule and on budget nasa's

3
00:00:19,429 --> 00:00:16,960
upcoming juno mission to jupiter was

4
00:00:21,510 --> 00:00:19,439
previewed by scientists and engineers at

5
00:00:23,830 --> 00:00:21,520
the kennedy space center news briefing

6
00:00:26,470 --> 00:00:23,840
the size of juno is about 11 and a half

7
00:00:28,950 --> 00:00:26,480
feet tall about 11 and a half feet wide

8
00:00:31,269 --> 00:00:28,960
the diameter of the circle is about 80

9
00:00:34,310 --> 00:00:31,279
feet in diameter we're the first ones to

10
00:00:37,430 --> 00:00:34,320
go out that far to to jupiter's distance

11
00:00:39,590 --> 00:00:37,440
solar powered juno's goal is to improve

12
00:00:42,389 --> 00:00:39,600
our understanding of our solar system's

13
00:00:45,110 --> 00:00:42,399
beginnings by revealing data about the

14
00:00:47,190 --> 00:00:45,120
gas giant's evolution juno will get

15
00:00:50,229 --> 00:00:47,200
closer to jupiter than any other

16
00:00:52,709 --> 00:00:50,239
spacecraft to provide detailed images

17
00:00:54,229 --> 00:00:52,719
and the first glimpse of its poles what

18
00:00:56,549 --> 00:00:54,239
we're really after is discovering the

19
00:00:58,709 --> 00:00:56,559
recipe for making planets and we're back

20
00:01:01,110 --> 00:00:58,719
at the first step of making sure we have

21
00:01:03,430 --> 00:01:01,120
all the ingredients in that recipe

22
00:01:04,869 --> 00:01:03,440
juno is scheduled to launch august 5th

23
00:01:06,789 --> 00:01:04,879
from the cape canaveral air force

24
00:01:08,870 --> 00:01:06,799
station in florida

25
00:01:11,109 --> 00:01:08,880
juno is really the first in a whole

26
00:01:12,710 --> 00:01:11,119
series of planetary science missions

27
00:01:15,429 --> 00:01:12,720
that are beginning

28
00:01:17,749 --> 00:01:15,439
juneau will launch in early august we'll

29
00:01:19,749 --> 00:01:17,759
have grail going to the moon in

30
00:01:24,950 --> 00:01:19,759
september and then we'll launch the mars

31
00:01:29,190 --> 00:01:26,870
with the recent selection of the gale

32
00:01:31,670 --> 00:01:29,200
crater as its landing site on the red

33
00:01:33,990 --> 00:01:31,680
planet the mars science laboratory

34
00:01:36,390 --> 00:01:34,000
mission is now one step closer to its

35
00:01:39,190 --> 00:01:36,400
scheduled launch this november

36
00:01:41,830 --> 00:01:39,200
nasa's next mars rover car sized

37
00:01:43,990 --> 00:01:41,840
curiosity would land in august of next

38
00:01:46,310 --> 00:01:44,000
year at the foot of a giant layered

39
00:01:48,550 --> 00:01:46,320
mountain inside gale there is this

40
00:01:50,550 --> 00:01:48,560
enormous stack five kilometers thick of

41
00:01:52,550 --> 00:01:50,560
layered material which represents the

42
00:01:53,910 --> 00:01:52,560
opportunity to literally read chapters

43
00:01:56,069 --> 00:01:53,920
in a book of the history of past

44
00:01:58,630 --> 00:01:56,079
deposition on mars during a prime

45
00:02:00,069 --> 00:01:58,640
mission lasting one martian year nearly

46
00:02:02,709 --> 00:02:00,079
two earth years

47
00:02:05,109 --> 00:02:02,719
researchers will use the rover's tools

48
00:02:07,590 --> 00:02:05,119
to study whether the landing region had

49
00:02:10,150 --> 00:02:07,600
favorable environmental conditions for

50
00:02:12,790 --> 00:02:10,160
supporting microbial life and for

51
00:02:22,630 --> 00:02:12,800
preserving clues about whether life ever

52
00:02:27,070 --> 00:02:24,550
with this plaque hanging ceremony at

53
00:02:29,830 --> 00:02:27,080
mission control in houston the

54
00:02:32,070 --> 00:02:29,840
sts-135 crew that completed the final

55
00:02:34,229 --> 00:02:32,080
space shuttle mission aboard atlantis

56
00:02:36,949 --> 00:02:34,239
paid tribute to flight controllers at

57
00:02:39,190 --> 00:02:36,959
the johnson space center who supervised

58
00:02:41,190 --> 00:02:39,200
its 13-day mission a chance to allow

59
00:02:43,990 --> 00:02:41,200
everyone to take it all in commander

60
00:02:46,550 --> 00:02:44,000
chris ferguson pilot doug hurley and

61
00:02:48,790 --> 00:02:46,560
mission specialists sandy magnus and rex

62
00:02:50,710 --> 00:02:48,800
walnut took part in the traditional

63
00:02:53,030 --> 00:02:50,720
ceremony that span both the

64
00:02:55,030 --> 00:02:53,040
international space station and space

65
00:02:56,470 --> 00:02:55,040
shuttle flight control room that's right

66
00:02:58,309 --> 00:02:56,480
you know every time we go flying we take

67
00:03:01,350 --> 00:02:58,319
a little piece of you with us and we

68
00:03:02,550 --> 00:03:01,360
hopefully maybe just brought you along a

69
00:03:04,309 --> 00:03:02,560
little bit more on this flight if you

70
00:03:07,350 --> 00:03:04,319
think about a year ago this flight

71
00:03:09,430 --> 00:03:07,360
didn't even exist it was the sts 335

72
00:03:11,910 --> 00:03:09,440
rescue mission and uh really it was just

73
00:03:14,229 --> 00:03:11,920
a gleam in mike safradini's eyes back

74
00:03:16,550 --> 00:03:14,239
then and uh and then here we are fast

75
00:03:18,550 --> 00:03:16,560
forward through 12 incredibly busy

76
00:03:21,350 --> 00:03:18,560
months of preparation and look at what

77
00:03:23,830 --> 00:03:21,360
we accomplished we never lost focus you

78
00:03:25,830 --> 00:03:23,840
never lost heart you never lost your

79
00:03:27,990 --> 00:03:25,840
morale you never lost the discipline

80
00:03:29,430 --> 00:03:28,000
with which we have been taught to come

81
00:03:31,350 --> 00:03:29,440
into this room and all of the

82
00:03:33,589 --> 00:03:31,360
surrounding rooms

83
00:03:34,710 --> 00:03:33,599
to do what we do

84
00:03:36,789 --> 00:03:34,720
and for that

85
00:03:38,070 --> 00:03:36,799
i think you all deserve to be commended

86
00:03:42,390 --> 00:03:38,080
so let's give yourselves a round of

87
00:03:46,070 --> 00:03:44,470
what we are trying to do in this

88
00:03:48,550 --> 00:03:46,080
administration

89
00:03:49,589 --> 00:03:48,560
is return nasa to that more classical

90
00:03:53,589 --> 00:03:49,599
role

91
00:03:56,229 --> 00:03:53,599

center

97
00:04:09,350 --> 00:04:07,040
new space allows entrepreneurs investors

98
00:04:12,070 --> 00:04:09,360
scientists engineers regulators and

99
00:04:15,030 --> 00:04:12,080
space policy leaders to discuss the

100
00:04:17,270 --> 00:04:15,040
opening of space to human settlement

101
00:04:19,830 --> 00:04:17,280
the theme of this year's three-day forum

102
00:04:22,550 --> 00:04:19,840
the next big thing focused on the

103
00:04:24,950 --> 00:04:22,560
emerging commercial space industry these

104
00:04:27,430 --> 00:04:24,960
are people who believe in what we do who

105
00:04:30,390 --> 00:04:27,440
believe that nasa is the government's

106
00:04:33,909 --> 00:04:30,400
part of the advancement of humanity into

107
00:04:35,670 --> 00:04:33,919
space and of course we want to

108
00:04:38,469 --> 00:04:35,680
help communicate with them about the

109
00:04:41,430 --> 00:04:38,479
things we're doing so that they can

110
00:04:44,310 --> 00:04:41,440
take that further it's great to be here

111
00:04:46,710 --> 00:04:44,320
while it ends garver also sat down for

112
00:04:48,629 --> 00:04:46,720

118
00:05:02,150 --> 00:04:59,840
workplace barriers she's had to overcome

119
00:05:08,790 --> 00:05:02,160
and advice for those working to achieve

120
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:16,550
they

121
00:05:20,950 --> 00:05:18,390
the kennedy space center teamed up with

122
00:05:24,390 --> 00:05:20,960

00:05:43,990 --> 00:05:41,759
country to the program that would be an

129
00:05:46,150 --> 00:05:44,000
awesome program for her nasa has been

130
00:05:48,310 --> 00:05:46,160
working with local state and federal

131
00:05:50,629 --> 00:05:48,320
officials to provide future planning and

132
00:05:52,870 --> 00:05:50,639
placement assistance for non-civil

133
00:05:55,189 --> 00:05:52,880
servant contractors who work to support

134
00:05:56,390 --> 00:05:55,199
the space shuttle program which will end

135
00:05:58,790 --> 00:05:56,400
next month

136
00:06:01,510 --> 00:05:58,800
nasa's human resources office has also

education this is the fourth consecutive

152
00:06:41,270 --> 00:06:39,280
year that students scholars and fellows

153
00:06:43,590 --> 00:06:41,280
have studied aeronautics and related

154
00:06:45,189 --> 00:06:43,600
fields in summer internships guided by

00:06:47,270 --> 00:06:45,199
nasa professionals

156
00:06:49,430 --> 00:06:47,280
both programs attempt to foster new

157
00:06:51,990 --> 00:06:49,440
generations of highly skilled scientists

158
00:06:54,070 --> 00:06:52,000
and engineers critical to the future of

159
00:06:55,029 --> 00:06:54,080
the nation's aeronautics industry it's

160

awesome

161
00:06:58,790 --> 00:06:56,560
this summer has definitely given me the

162
00:07:01,589 --> 00:06:58,800
opportunity to see a lot of different

163
00:07:03,110 --> 00:07:01,599
aspects of aeronautics research and be a

164
00:07:05,350 --> 00:07:03,120
part of something i never thought that i

165
00:07:08,629 --> 00:07:05,360
would

166
00:07:11,510 --> 00:07:08,639

180
00:07:40,309 --> 00:07:38,240
does the ultraviolet and infrared light

181
00:07:43,430 --> 00:07:40,319
affect what you see behind your eyelids

182
00:07:45,909 --> 00:07:43,440
