in everything that's going on at wallops

103
00:04:24,230 --> 00:04:21,759
i think it was a good a good opportunity

for him to come in and kind of tour the

105
00:04:27,590 --> 00:04:26,080
facilities we have here and just just

106
00:04:31,350 --> 00:04:27,600
see what all

107
00:04:35,030 --> 00:04:33,749
just wonder where what it means and

108
00:04:36,390 --> 00:04:35,040
where it is and

109
00:04:37,830 --> 00:04:36,400
it's really interesting

110
00:04:40,550 --> 00:04:37,840
what's getting the attention of

111
00:04:42,629 --> 00:04:40,560
passers-by in baltimore's inner harbor

112
00:04:44,629 --> 00:04:42,639
is a unique art exhibit

113
00:04:46,790 --> 00:04:44,639
that's literally lighting up this

114
00:04:49,270 --> 00:04:46,800
tourist destination it's like a laser

115
00:04:51,350 --> 00:04:49,280
show yeah i really didn't know i had no

116
00:04:52,870 --> 00:04:51,360
idea what somebody was fascinating or

117
00:04:55,189 --> 00:04:52,880
scientific at all

118
00:04:56,790 --> 00:04:55,199
but it is science the green line

119
00:04:58,790 --> 00:04:56,800
represents the different kinds of

120
00:05:01,510 --> 00:04:58,800
information nasa's hubble space

121
00:05:02,950 --> 00:05:01,520
telescope gets when it looks out into

122
00:05:05,510 --> 00:05:02,960
the cosmos

123
00:05:07,430 --> 00:05:05,520
the real true physics that allow

124
00:05:09,830 --> 00:05:07,440
astronomers to understand what the

125
00:05:12,710 --> 00:05:09,840
object is all about we learn about the

126
00:05:15,350 --> 00:05:12,720
temperature the physical conditions we

127
00:05:17,110 --> 00:05:15,360
learn about their distance after decades

128
00:05:20,070 --> 00:05:17,120
of seeing the beautiful pictures from

129
00:05:23,590 --> 00:05:20,080
hubble artist tim roth wanted to shine a

130
00:05:26,870 --> 00:05:23,600
new light on the 21 year old newsmaker

131
00:05:29,749 --> 00:05:26,880
this is the job of art is really not to

132
00:05:31,270 --> 00:05:29,759
explain immediately is more really to

133
00:05:33,749 --> 00:05:31,280
to puzzle people

134
00:05:35,270 --> 00:05:33,759
so so the people are standing there and

135
00:05:38,870 --> 00:05:35,280
saying oh

136
00:05:41,350 --> 00:05:38,880
what's that so the people get interested

137
00:05:43,350 --> 00:05:41,360
while roth knows many who walk by think

138
00:05:46,310 --> 00:05:43,360
the display on the wall of the maryland

139
00:05:48,870 --> 00:05:46,320
science center looks like a heartbeat he

140
00:05:52,870 --> 00:05:48,880
says it is in a way but it's the

141
00:05:55,189 --> 00:05:52,880
heartbeat of the universe

142
00:05:57,430 --> 00:05:55,199
i just want to say that we are we're all

143
00:05:59,110 --> 00:05:57,440
big space nuts we're all

144
00:06:00,870 --> 00:05:59,120
one the space

145
00:06:01,909 --> 00:06:00,880
program to continue

146
00:06:06,150 --> 00:06:01,919

space station

154
00:06:22,309 --> 00:06:20,080
the guys here don't believe you're

155
00:06:25,990 --> 00:06:22,319
actually in space so can you prove it to

156
00:06:30,070 --> 00:06:28,070
we believe you

157
00:06:32,150 --> 00:06:30,080
that's amazing

163
00:06:45,749 --> 00:06:43,039
corresponded while guerin lived on the

164
00:06:47,909 --> 00:06:45,759

space center's 50th anniversary

169
00:07:03,749 --> 00:07:01,840
continues it was 1961 when nasa

170
00:07:05,430 --> 00:07:03,759
announced its plans to build a rocket

171
00:07:06,629 --> 00:07:05,440
engine test facility in south

172
00:07:09,110 --> 00:07:06,639

173
00:07:11,909 --> 00:07:09,120
stennis's rich history and role in the

174
00:07:13,990 --> 00:07:11,919

rocket ship and go to mars

179
00:07:23,909 --> 00:07:22,400
they're going to have the satisfaction

180
00:07:25,909 --> 00:07:23,919
and their granddad is going to be able

to tell them i'm comfortable with what

182
00:07:29,029 --> 00:07:27,919
you're about to do i know the engines

183
00:07:30,710 --> 00:07:29,039
are going to be good because they've

184
00:07:31,990 --> 00:07:30,720
been through stennis and they've been

185
00:07:33,589 --> 00:07:32,000
through the state of mississippi so

186
00:07:35,830 --> 00:07:33,599

former employees and contractors joined

191
00:07:47,589 --> 00:07:45,599
current employees in sharing experiences

192
00:07:49,670 --> 00:07:47,599
and contributions that have played a

193
00:07:52,150 --> 00:07:49,680
vital role in the center's development

194
00:07:55,029 --> 00:07:52,160
this this whole workforce doesn't matter

195
00:07:57,670 --> 00:07:55,039
what badge you wore or who you were

196
00:07:59,670 --> 00:07:57,680
was a can-do outfit

197
00:08:01,990 --> 00:07:59,680
there was nothing that you couldn't take

198
00:08:07,350 --> 00:08:02,000
on and wouldn't take home

199
00:08:09,270 --> 00:08:08,309
three

200
00:08:12,390 --> 00:08:09,280
two

201
00:08:15,029 --> 00:08:12,400
one we have ignition and liftoff

202
00:08:16,869 --> 00:08:15,039
of a delta ii rocket carrying nasa on an

203
00:08:20,950 --> 00:08:16,879
odyssey back to mars

204
00:08:23,990 --> 00:08:20,960
ten years ago on march 24 2001 the

205
00:08:25,990 --> 00:08:24,000
odyssey spacecraft reached mars to study

206
00:08:28,469 --> 00:08:26,000
and map the elemental composition of the

207
00:08:30,869 --> 00:08:28,479
martian surface and evaluate the red

208
00:08:32,630 --> 00:08:30,879
planet's radiation environment

209
00:08:34,790 --> 00:08:32,640
odyssey also has served as a

210
00:08:37,350 --> 00:08:34,800
communication relay for most of the data

211
00:08:40,469 --> 00:08:37,360
sent home by the phoenix lander and the

212
00:08:41,990 --> 00:08:40,479
mars rovers spirit and opportunity it

213
00:08:43,909 --> 00:08:42,000
also became the middle link for

214
00:08:47,190 --> 00:08:43,919
continuous observation of martian

215
00:08:49,910 --> 00:08:47,200
weather by nasa's mars global surveyor

216
00:08:53,269 --> 00:08:49,920
and the mars reconnaissance orbiter in

217
00:08:57,430 --> 00:08:53,279
2010 odyssey became the longest serving

218
00:09:02,389 --> 00:08:59,990
and five years later nasa released the

219
00:09:04,949 --> 00:09:02,399
solar terrestrial relations observatory

220
00:09:08,230 --> 00:09:04,959
into the heavens to stereographically

221
00:09:10,630 --> 00:09:08,240
image the sun and its emissions the two

222
00:09:14,310 --> 00:09:10,640
identical space-based observatories

223
00:09:16,630 --> 00:09:14,320
stereo a and stereo b orbit the sun one

224
00:09:19,110 --> 00:09:16,640
ahead of the earth the other trailing

225
00:09:20,790 --> 00:09:19,120
this dual perspective allows scientists

226
00:09:23,509 --> 00:09:20,800
to better see the structure and

227
00:09:26,470 --> 00:09:23,519
evolution of solar storms as they move

228
00:09:29,030 --> 00:09:26,480
from the sun into space

229
00:09:31,269 --> 00:09:29,040
and that's this week at nasa for more on
