00:00:04,490 --> 00:00:02,750
good morning space fans and race

2
00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:04,500
enthusiasts or is it the other way

3
00:00:08,870 --> 00:00:06,930
around we enjoy saying that here because

4
00:00:11,419 --> 00:00:08,880
it's not very often we get to do so we

5
00:00:14,060 --> 00:00:11,429

00:00:18,730 --> 00:00:16,500
and Rocket Center in Huntsville Alabama

8
00:00:22,550 --> 00:00:18,740
this is of course the home to Space Camp

9
00:00:24,230 --> 00:00:22,560
aviation challenge two great programs

10
00:00:26,740 --> 00:00:24,240
down here that help teach kids and

11
00:00:29,089 --> 00:00:26,750
students about even some adults about

12
00:00:31,370 --> 00:00:29,099
aeronautics and astronautics but of

13
00:00:33,170 --> 00:00:31,380
course this is also home to the Welcome

00:00:46,430 --> 00:00:43,800
day one as students and student teams

20
00:00:49,220 --> 00:00:46,440
from across the world came here to

21
00:00:52,310 --> 00:00:49,230
Huntsville Alabama to take their shot at

22
00:00:54,290 --> 00:00:52,320
running their own moon buggies across

23
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:54,300
the course here at the Space and Rocket

24
00:00:58,849 --> 00:00:57,090
Center we had a great turnout nearly 90

25
00:01:00,470 --> 00:00:58,859
teams have joined us once again from

26
00:01:03,260 --> 00:01:00,480

including India Germany Italy Russia

30
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:11,250
even the United Arab Emirates fielded a

31
00:01:15,260 --> 00:01:13,650
team for this year's event and we're

32
00:01:16,399 --> 00:01:15,270

my broadcast partner Lori Meggs who is

36
00:01:25,550 --> 00:01:23,369
at the start / finish line / underneath

37
00:01:26,780 --> 00:01:25,560
the space shuttle a full mock-up of the

38
00:01:29,960 --> 00:01:26,790
space shuttle just one of the great

39
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:29,970
great installations here at the US Space

40
00:01:35,450 --> 00:01:33,210
and Rocket Center the race has outpaced

41
00:01:37,550 --> 00:01:35,460
its own previous record last year we had

42
00:01:39,980 --> 00:01:37,560
more than 70 teams take the course over

43
00:01:41,899 --> 00:01:39,990
two days and we look set to beat that

44
00:01:44,210 --> 00:01:41,909
number by a fair margin this year looks

45
00:01:45,620 --> 00:01:44,220
to be quite an event as you can see the

46
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:45,630
first buggy going through the final

47
00:01:50,780 --> 00:01:47,610

much as we had mentioned the teams are

60
00:02:24,310 --> 00:02:21,560
going to be running an order from the

61
00:02:26,710 --> 00:02:24,320
way they finished last year and last

62
00:02:29,470 --> 00:02:26,720
year team number one Taylor Aguilar

63
00:02:31,810 --> 00:02:29,480
moral vocational high school from Puerto

64
00:02:34,780 --> 00:02:31,820
Rico where our overall winners they were

65
00:02:36,670 --> 00:02:34,790
new to the moon buggy race in 2010 but

66
00:02:39,790 --> 00:02:36,680
their buggies achieved seventh and ninth

67
00:02:42,510 --> 00:02:39,800
place among all racers and in 2011 they

68
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:42,520
took the top two spots teams one and two

69
00:02:46,810 --> 00:02:44,810
came in first and second in the high

70
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:46,820
school division team one finished the

71
00:02:51,310 --> 00:02:49,370
course in three minutes and 18 seconds

72
00:02:53,980 --> 00:02:51,320
last year and right now they are the

73
00:02:56,530 --> 00:02:53,990
time to beat at an unofficial time of 3

74
00:02:59,620 --> 00:02:56,540
minutes and 24 seconds that they said

75
00:03:02,530 --> 00:02:59,630
yesterday and they are off the first

76
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:02,540
buggy is underway in day 2 of the 19th

77
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:05,090
great moon buggy race going underneath

78
00:03:10,780 --> 00:03:08,810
the Pathfinder shuttle already headed up

79
00:03:13,300 --> 00:03:10,790
now that first Hill taking that second

80
00:03:14,949 --> 00:03:13,310
obstacle at 18 seconds in that is

81
00:03:16,930 --> 00:03:14,959
already a great mark we've seen that

82
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:16,940
most of the leaders we're able to press

83
00:03:21,970 --> 00:03:18,890
that hill at about 20 seconds so they've

84
00:03:23,830 --> 00:03:21,980
done so already over obstacles 3 & 4

85
00:03:27,790 --> 00:03:23,840
this is the difficult part we call it

86
00:03:29,949 --> 00:03:27,800
lunatic curve yes lots of moon and space

87
00:03:31,390 --> 00:03:29,959
puns you'll see here today as I take

88
00:03:33,070 --> 00:03:31,400
that turn it used to be a much more

89
00:03:34,660 --> 00:03:33,080
vicious turn will explain to you more

90
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:34,670
about that a little bit later they've

91
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:36,530
tried to even it out so some of the

92
00:03:40,870 --> 00:03:38,450
racers have us have a safer time of it

93
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:40,880
safety being one of the main concerns

94
00:03:44,949 --> 00:03:42,890
here at the great moon buggy race they

95
00:03:46,750 --> 00:03:44,959
are just flying through this course less

96
00:03:48,820 --> 00:03:46,760
than one minute in once again we said

97
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:48,830
the oh that could be a penalty though

98
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:50,330
every time you hit a cone and swing a

99
00:03:54,250 --> 00:03:52,130
little bit too far to the rope that is

100
00:03:56,039 --> 00:03:54,260
considered a penalty amid anem finish

101
00:03:58,930 --> 00:03:56,049
with one of welcome a very special guest

102
00:04:00,729 --> 00:03:58,940
Charlie Bolden is here it's not often

103
00:04:02,250 --> 00:04:00,739
that we get celebrities I'm not a

104
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:02,260
similar

105
00:04:07,289 --> 00:04:04,330
jolly well done course the administrator

106
00:04:08,490 --> 00:04:07,299
for the for NASA joining us and thanks

107
00:04:09,690 --> 00:04:08,500
very much for making the trip and it's

108
00:04:11,789 --> 00:04:09,700
good to see Dondria I've been trying to

109
00:04:13,319 --> 00:04:11,799
get here for years and so it this is my

110
00:04:14,940 --> 00:04:13,329
first time ever seeing this and it's

111
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:14,950
incredible we're glad you brought the

112
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:15,970
good weather with you too though I wish

113
00:04:19,620 --> 00:04:17,650
I could say I did but I'm glad the

114
00:04:21,180 --> 00:04:19,630
weather is good so did you get a chance

115
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:21,190
to look along a pit road to see some of

116
00:04:23,879 --> 00:04:22,330
the some of the buggies that they've

117
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:23,889
been that they've been building I did we

118
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:25,210
came out a little bit earlier so I had a

119
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:27,130
chance first of all to go meet the folk

120
00:04:30,150 --> 00:04:28,810
in pit row some of you know some of the

121
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:30,160
marshal folk and some of the engineers

122
00:04:34,020 --> 00:04:31,810
from out in town that was really good

123
00:04:35,610 --> 00:04:34,030
and asked them a little bit about what

124
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:35,620
kinds of malfunctions they see and

125
00:04:39,210 --> 00:04:37,090
everything and then kind of had a chance

126
00:04:41,189 --> 00:04:39,220
to meet some of the teams fortunately

127
00:04:43,409 --> 00:04:41,199
met the team from Puerto Rico they're

128
00:04:45,210 --> 00:04:43,419
pretty impressive to tell you and and

129
00:04:47,610 --> 00:04:45,220
then met the team from Jupiter the

130
00:04:49,980 --> 00:04:47,620
second their second bug you didn't fare

131
00:04:52,950 --> 00:04:49,990
too well that's so I hope I didn't jinx

132
00:04:54,180 --> 00:04:52,960
me but it's been really good and I look

133
00:04:55,770 --> 00:04:54,190
forward to meeting some more the teams

134
00:04:57,180 --> 00:04:55,780
as we go through that's pretty good

135
00:04:59,279 --> 00:04:57,190
stuff got to see a lot of amazing

136
00:05:00,600 --> 00:04:59,289
ingenuity with these so we did one of

137
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:00,610
the things that I did want to ask you

138
00:05:04,230 --> 00:05:02,289
Charlie this morning was you've had an

139
00:05:05,969 --> 00:05:04,240
opportunity to take a look around and as

140
00:05:07,770 --> 00:05:05,979
you spend more of your day here one of

141
00:05:10,110 --> 00:05:07,780
the things that we try to focus on with

142
00:05:12,150 --> 00:05:10,120
the education aspect of this is the

143
00:05:14,250 --> 00:05:12,160
working together as units working

144
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:14,260
together as teams and then also working

145
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:18,010
together with everyone as a larger group

146
00:05:22,500 --> 00:05:19,930
here at the competitions because you get

147
00:05:23,909 --> 00:05:22,510
to meet other people on the course and

148
00:05:26,129 --> 00:05:23,919
you get to learn by what other people do

149
00:05:28,950 --> 00:05:26,139
and and how does that translate back to

150
00:05:30,270 --> 00:05:28,960
what NASA does it's exactly what I try

151
00:05:31,950 --> 00:05:30,280
to tell people all the time people ask

152
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:31,960
me a lot you know what puts the most

153
00:05:36,689 --> 00:05:34,210
memorable thing from from the your time

154
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:36,699
in NASA meaning what was the best thing

155
00:05:39,719 --> 00:05:38,050
that happened while you were fine and

156
00:05:41,510 --> 00:05:39,729
then I have to tell him it wasn't my

157
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:41,520
last night it was you know

158
00:05:45,140 --> 00:05:43,289
everyone on my floor missions were

159
00:05:47,330 --> 00:05:45,150
thrilling I read the one that I

160
00:05:49,570 --> 00:05:47,340
cherished the most was my last when I

161
00:05:52,100 --> 00:05:49,580
had Sergei krikalev and Vladimir t talk

162
00:05:54,050 --> 00:05:52,110
two Russian cosmonauts who brought their

163
00:05:55,399 --> 00:05:54,060
families who you know we trained

164
00:05:57,490 --> 00:05:55,409
together for two years and we have been

165
00:06:00,290 --> 00:05:57,500
friends ever since now back in 1994

166
00:06:01,790 --> 00:06:00,300
these kids are doing exactly that you

167
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:01,800
know they they meet kids from other

168
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:03,210
countries from other schools from other

169
00:06:07,999 --> 00:06:05,849
parts of the country and they have a 24

170
00:06:09,950 --> 00:06:08,009
hour period of time 48 hours to get to

171
00:06:12,619 --> 00:06:09,960
know them my hope is that they didn't

172
00:06:14,899 --> 00:06:12,629
really go visit them in Milan down and

173
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:14,909
that's what we 12 you can sit in the

174
00:06:19,670 --> 00:06:17,610
hood international cooperation is really

175
00:06:21,140 --> 00:06:19,680
big it's really important we can't do

176
00:06:22,939 --> 00:06:21,150
the exploration that we want to do in

177
00:06:24,740 --> 00:06:22,949
the future without having international

178
00:06:26,930 --> 00:06:24,750
partners to do that and they're they're

179
00:06:28,010 --> 00:06:26,940
seeing that firsthand so what do you

180
00:06:29,540 --> 00:06:28,020
hope that some of the kids get out of

181
00:06:31,339 --> 00:06:29,550
this event even they're only here for a

182
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:31,349
short period of time I hope they I hope

183
00:06:34,610 --> 00:06:32,610
they enjoy Huntsville and want to come

184
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:34,620
back and I don't know whether they get a

185
00:06:37,820 --> 00:06:36,210
chance to tour Marshall and I haven't

186
00:06:39,890 --> 00:06:37,830
had a chance to see whether whether we

187
00:06:41,899 --> 00:06:39,900
give them that benefit but if we don't

188
00:06:43,129 --> 00:06:41,909
then maybe it entices them to come back

189
00:06:45,409 --> 00:06:43,139
because we need a lot of them to come

190
00:06:47,870 --> 00:06:45,419
here and be engineers so that's that's

191
00:06:52,100 --> 00:06:47,880
one thing I hope the other thing I hope

192
00:06:55,309 --> 00:06:52,110
you know huntsville's a typical southern

193
00:06:57,860 --> 00:06:55,319
town in its hospitality and so it's a

194
00:06:59,570 --> 00:06:57,870
great place for people to come to us to

195
00:07:00,610 --> 00:06:59,580
get a good flavor for who we are and

196
00:07:03,129 --> 00:07:00,620
what we are

197
00:07:04,810 --> 00:07:03,139
and so I'm hoping also that they'll go

198
00:07:06,490 --> 00:07:04,820
away from here having had just a

199
00:07:08,140 --> 00:07:06,500
tremendous positive experience in the

200
00:07:10,540 --> 00:07:08,150
United States and want to come back

201
00:07:12,159 --> 00:07:10,550
again it's wonderful to see that

202
00:07:15,010 --> 00:07:12,169
emphasis that what we've been putting on

203
00:07:17,050 --> 00:07:15,020
so much on this stem disciplines as yet

204
00:07:18,909 --> 00:07:17,060
there there goes Jupiter high school

205
00:07:21,219 --> 00:07:18,919
algebra high school this is Arab high

206
00:07:22,810 --> 00:07:21,229
school team number two trekking on three

207
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:22,820
let's see how their time not even two

208
00:07:27,129 --> 00:07:25,490
minutes just yet so really quickly that

209
00:07:28,300 --> 00:07:27,139
we put such a great emphasis on these

210
00:07:29,590 --> 00:07:28,310
stem disciplines and I think that's a

211
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:29,600
wonderful thing to see them put them and

212
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:32,330
to see how they realize how these are

213
00:07:36,370 --> 00:07:34,490
using everyday in everyday experiences I

214
00:07:37,930 --> 00:07:36,380
think it's great you know I was asking a

215
00:07:39,700 --> 00:07:37,940
couple of the teams what kind of

216
00:07:42,340 --> 00:07:39,710
criteria do they have new atomic size

217
00:07:44,740 --> 00:07:42,350
and we all other kinds of stuff but

218
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:44,750
they've had to as I've said before it

219
00:07:48,250 --> 00:07:46,010
they've had to spend some time

220
00:07:49,330 --> 00:07:48,260
understand to understand what the

221
00:07:51,490 --> 00:07:49,340
teachers tell them in the classroom

222
00:07:53,500 --> 00:07:51,500
because when you start building

223
00:07:55,390 --> 00:07:53,510
something like this you know theory is

224
00:07:57,640 --> 00:07:55,400
one thing but now to put it into

225
00:07:59,260 --> 00:07:57,650
practice and that's there they're

226
00:08:00,670 --> 00:07:59,270
perfect candidates for becoming

227
00:08:03,189 --> 00:08:00,680
astronauts in one of these days heaven

228
00:08:04,540 --> 00:08:03,199
having to make repairs on the fly those

229
00:08:06,610 --> 00:08:04,550
kinds of things that's what happens in a

230
00:08:09,190 --> 00:08:06,620
typical faith flag you know things don't

231
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:09,200
always go right and so you you don't you

232
00:08:12,279 --> 00:08:10,610
can't take it back to the factory you

233
00:08:14,050 --> 00:08:12,289
got to fix it on the fly and that's what

234
00:08:15,310 --> 00:08:14,060
they learn how to do out here Charlie

235
00:08:16,540 --> 00:08:15,320
thanks very much for taking the time as

236
00:08:20,140 --> 00:08:16,550

team number two now pressing the top of

256
00:09:04,060 --> 00:09:02,390
the hill

257
00:09:05,740 --> 00:09:04,070
making a pretty good pace he may not

258
00:09:07,390 --> 00:09:05,750
exactly be able to finish towards the

259
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:07,400
top of it but they're doing very well so

260
00:09:11,980 --> 00:09:10,730
far one of the lizard one of the team

261
00:09:13,810 --> 00:09:11,990
members every Arab high school

262
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:13,820
journalists now you are from Europe yes

263
00:09:17,860 --> 00:09:15,650
yes I'm actually sponsoring spots were

264
00:09:20,830 --> 00:09:17,870
okay as I say you were a very tall

265
00:09:22,210 --> 00:09:20,840
student yes sir they're doing good today

266
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:22,220
I think we've had some pretty good times

267
00:09:26,680 --> 00:09:24,530
our first buggies in first places right

268
00:09:28,300 --> 00:09:26,690
now so I saw their unofficial time get

269
00:09:29,890 --> 00:09:28,310
was that based on the assembly time as

270
00:09:31,660 --> 00:09:29,900
well yes sir it was yesterday's running

271
00:09:33,370 --> 00:09:31,670
this assembly time were first place so

272
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:33,380
far that's fantastic you got to be proud

273
00:09:35,980 --> 00:09:34,490
of your kids he has her I'm very

274
00:09:37,590 --> 00:09:35,990
probably put a lot of work into it they

275
00:09:39,220 --> 00:09:37,600
work hard no they did all of our

276
00:09:40,390 --> 00:09:39,230
modifications we have our own machine

277
00:09:42,670 --> 00:09:40,400
shop where they did their own work is

278
00:09:43,930 --> 00:09:42,680
really practice hard it's not very often

279
00:09:45,490 --> 00:09:43,940
that you see a high school team that is

280
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:45,500
able to do they do the welding as well

281
00:09:48,940 --> 00:09:47,450
yes sir we do we send it down our I shop

282
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:48,950
the students with Oliver oil and we try

283
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:51,650
to make them as responsible as on every

284
00:09:59,380 --> 00:09:55,970
part of it making that sharp right hand

285
00:10:00,670 --> 00:09:59,390
turn on obstacle number six they get

286
00:10:06,700 --> 00:10:00,680
enough momentum coming out of that term

287
00:10:10,930 --> 00:10:06,710
no they did not how lucky we walked his

288
00:10:13,810 --> 00:10:10,940
way over those ridges this is a

289
00:10:15,670 --> 00:10:13,820
technique that we hadn't seen much is it

290
00:10:18,220 --> 00:10:15,680
looks like they are kind of walking the

291
00:10:19,630 --> 00:10:18,230
vehicle trying to get one one of the

292
00:10:21,250 --> 00:10:19,640
wheels over one of the ridges and then

293
00:10:25,079 --> 00:10:21,260
get the other one over and then continue

294
00:10:31,019 --> 00:10:26,790
so I had to continue to push their way

295
00:10:35,019 --> 00:10:31,029
through now obstacle number five they're

296
00:10:42,980 --> 00:10:37,129
time to pick up some speed as they hit

297
00:10:48,380 --> 00:10:42,990
obstacle number 60 that's a little not

298
00:10:51,350 --> 00:10:50,240
however once again it looks like they're

299
00:11:05,990 --> 00:10:51,360
going to be able to muscle their way

300
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:08,270
no penalties an obstacle number six that

301
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:19,470
fortunately i'll need to pick up the

302
00:11:23,250 --> 00:11:21,010
pace we're not sure if the front driver

303
00:11:26,580 --> 00:11:23,260
looks like he stopped penalty it is

304
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:26,590
possible his chain is broken or has come

305
00:11:43,490 --> 00:11:50,290
probably

306
00:11:54,340 --> 00:11:51,700
going to see me is going to take a

307
00:11:57,930 --> 00:11:54,350
moment to try to fix the fix the chain

308
00:12:25,660 --> 00:11:57,940
or he's just going to have to push

309
00:12:29,030 --> 00:12:27,950
now both riders have come off the ball

310
00:12:36,650 --> 00:12:29,040
you to try to see if they can push the

311
00:12:36,660 --> 00:12:48,000
because I guess

312
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:50,170
alright having cleared that one let's

313
00:12:57,879 --> 00:12:52,850
see how they decide to handle the

314
00:12:59,530 --> 00:12:57,889
the tight turn there so you've got the

315
00:13:01,960 --> 00:12:59,540
male rider who's decided to go ahead and

316
00:13:16,420 --> 00:13:01,970
push on the back side of it while the

317
00:13:20,980 --> 00:13:18,710
barony throb school number nine and

318
00:13:25,970 --> 00:13:20,990
starting on off school number ten

319
00:13:38,249 --> 00:13:25,980
getting through that one as well get

320
00:13:44,099 --> 00:13:40,139
worth having definitely having to do it

321
00:13:45,929 --> 00:13:44,109
the hard way by pushing it but they are

322
00:13:48,599 --> 00:13:45,939
showing some intestinal fortitude for

323
00:13:53,369 --> 00:13:48,609
doing so five and a half minutes gone

324
00:13:56,939 --> 00:13:53,379
now in their 10 minute run as I enter

325
00:14:18,550 --> 00:13:56,949
the crater around the lunar excursion

326
00:14:25,220 --> 00:14:21,440
just passing six minutes now as purdue

327
00:14:31,150 --> 00:14:25,230
university calumet team to leaves the

328
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:33,650
team number 63 now trying to decide how

329
00:14:37,250 --> 00:14:34,890
much further they're going to be able to

330
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:37,260
make it there at five minutes and 40

331
00:14:40,940 --> 00:14:38,730
seconds as they approach obstacle number

332
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:40,950
nine so let's head on down to the

333
00:14:45,530 --> 00:14:42,570
starting line to see who's next on the

334
00:14:47,449 --> 00:14:45,540
block Laurie oh it's Jennifer accuse me

335
00:14:50,650 --> 00:14:47,459
I'm sorry Jennifer it's okay it's like

336
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:50,660
77 degrees down here on the concrete

337
00:14:57,380 --> 00:14:53,850
everyone's roasting even though it's

338
00:15:00,590 --> 00:14:57,390
really not that warm for April anyway up

339
00:15:03,970 --> 00:15:00,600
at the starting line is Ohio State and

340
00:15:06,949 --> 00:15:03,980
we have our first driver Lori and beachy

341
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:06,959
alrighty and our second driver is Ben

342
00:15:11,180 --> 00:15:08,850
Harris and then how did you guys do

343
00:15:12,410 --> 00:15:11,190
yesterday we had quite a few technical

344
00:15:14,300 --> 00:15:12,420
difficulties didn't quite make it

345
00:15:17,030 --> 00:15:14,310
through I'm glad that you can laugh at

346
00:15:19,670 --> 00:15:17,040
that today um what exactly went wrong

347
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:19,680
can you tell us well or what how many

348
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:21,690
things went wrong a ton of stuff went

349
00:15:26,389 --> 00:15:23,250
wrong but will fell off and that was it

350
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:26,399
so that sort of took you out yep that

351
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:28,050
was the end okay so more positive

352
00:15:32,870 --> 00:15:29,850
thinking today of course of course of

353
00:15:34,730 --> 00:15:32,880
course we're gonna make how long does it

354
00:15:37,699 --> 00:15:34,740
take you generally to build a buggy like

355
00:15:40,250 --> 00:15:37,709
this um this one we just kind of revamp

356
00:15:42,490 --> 00:15:40,260
from last year so I don't really have a

357
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:42,500
good time frame I mean we worked on it I

358
00:15:52,940 --> 00:15:48,450
don't know a lot how many people are on

359
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:52,950
your team there's 10 of us okay and all

360
00:15:56,329 --> 00:15:54,450
right is that part of a class that you

361
00:15:58,940 --> 00:15:56,339
have at school or is it just an

362
00:16:00,980 --> 00:15:58,950
after-school activity after school so

363
00:16:03,470 --> 00:16:00,990
