1 00:00:05,190 --> 00:00:02,950 well hello everybody welcome inside 2 00:00:07,349 --> 00:00:05,200 mission control we're welcoming the east 3 00:00:09,509 --> 00:00:07,359 paulding middle school students in 4 00:00:11,589 --> 00:00:09,519 dallas georgia we we know you guys are 5 00:00:13,430 --> 00:00:11,599 outside atlanta and i'm 6 00:00:16,070 --> 00:00:13,440 very pleased to have heather paul with 7 00:00:18,070 --> 00:00:16,080 me she is a mechanical engineer she 8 00:00:19,109 --> 00:00:18,080 graduated from high school in atlanta so 9 00:00:21,590 --> 00:00:19,119 she's 10 00:00:23,269 --> 00:00:21,600 very familiar with that area 11 00:00:25,750 --> 00:00:23,279 she currently is a crew and thermal 12 00:00:26,950 --> 00:00:25,760 systems division 13 00:00:28,470 --> 00:00:26,960 engineer 14 00:00:30,310 --> 00:00:28,480 here at the johnson space center and 15 00:00:32,470 --> 00:00:30,320 you're inside mission control where the 16 00:00:34,389 --> 00:00:32,480 flight control team oversees all the 17 00:00:36,470 --> 00:00:34,399 operations of the international space 18 00:00:37,830 --> 00:00:36,480 station we are very pleased to have you 19 00:00:40,630 --> 00:00:37,840 guys with us 20 00:00:42,869 --> 00:00:40,640 today uh me and heather and she's gonna 21 00:00:45,990 --> 00:00:42,879 handle all the hard questions that you 22 00:00:47,830 --> 00:00:46,000 guys may have for us and michael and 23 00:00:50,069 --> 00:00:47,840 i guess april leachman you're the 24 00:00:55,670 --> 00:00:50,079 teacher for these students so we're 25 00:01:00,950 --> 00:00:58,709 hello my name is and my question is if 26 00:01:03,110 --> 00:01:00,960 we ever live on the moon how we transfer 27 00:01:05,030 --> 00:01:03,120 oxygen 28 00:01:06,710 --> 00:01:05,040 clark that is a very very important 29 00:01:08,469 --> 00:01:06,720 question to think about because the moon 30 00:01:10,550 --> 00:01:08,479 doesn't have an atmosphere so we would 31 00:01:13,990 --> 00:01:10,560 have to provide our own oxygen for the 32 00:01:15,830 --> 00:01:14,000 astronauts to live and we may bring some 33 00:01:17,590 --> 00:01:15,840 of the oxygen with us but most likely if 34 00:01:19,270 --> 00:01:17,600 we're looking at living on the moon for 35 00:01:20,950 --> 00:01:19,280 a longer period of time than we did in 36 00:01:23,590 --> 00:01:20,960 the apollo days we're going to have to 37 00:01:25,270 --> 00:01:23,600 figure out a way to generate that oxygen 38 00:01:27,429 --> 00:01:25,280 so that is something that our engineers 39 00:01:29,670 --> 00:01:27,439 are working on right now in fact and not 40 00:01:31,749 --> 00:01:29,680 only generating the oxygen but recycling 41 00:01:33,510 --> 00:01:31,759 the oxygen that we use you know we 42 00:01:35,670 --> 00:01:33,520 breathe in oxygen we breathe out carbon 43 00:01:38,630 --> 00:01:35,680 dioxide so how could you recycle the 44 00:01:40,710 --> 00:01:38,640 oxygen out of your exhale and make sure 45 00:01:42,950 --> 00:01:40,720 that you pull the oxygen molecules in 46 00:01:45,429 --> 00:01:42,960 and maybe even generate oxygen from the 47 00:01:51,109 --> 00:01:45,439 carbon dioxide molecules great question 48 00:01:56,149 --> 00:01:53,749 hello my name is seth grenin and will we 49 00:01:58,550 --> 00:01:56,159 ever be able to walk on the moon or walk 50 00:02:00,389 --> 00:01:58,560 on the i'll walk on mars 51 00:02:03,109 --> 00:02:00,399 seth you know that's a question i often 52 00:02:05,109 --> 00:02:03,119 ask and we are working on our spacesuits 53 00:02:07,109 --> 00:02:05,119 and our vehicles and our robots and 54 00:02:09,430 --> 00:02:07,119 rovers to get us there and to work on 55 00:02:11,190 --> 00:02:09,440 the surface of mars as far as when that 56 00:02:12,550 --> 00:02:11,200 will happen you know it's it's a 57 00:02:14,949 --> 00:02:12,560 challenge to get there it's a lot 58 00:02:16,710 --> 00:02:14,959 further away than the moon the moon only 59 00:02:18,470 --> 00:02:16,720 took us about two to three days to get 60 00:02:20,390 --> 00:02:18,480 there to get to do our work 61 00:02:21,910 --> 00:02:20,400 mars is a lot further away so it could 62 00:02:24,070 --> 00:02:21,920 take us anywhere from three to six 63 00:02:25,750 --> 00:02:24,080 months to get there so you gotta let our 64 00:02:27,510 --> 00:02:25,760 engineers work hard on that new vehicle 65 00:02:29,270 --> 00:02:27,520 we're developing in our new suits and 66 00:02:31,509 --> 00:02:29,280 rovers and robots and then hopefully 67 00:02:35,030 --> 00:02:31,519 maybe you maybe your classmates will get 68 00:02:37,030 --> 00:02:35,040 to either work with us here to 69 00:02:41,589 --> 00:02:37,040 be in mission control center or even fly 70 00:02:41,599 --> 00:02:44,630 thank you 71 00:02:50,309 --> 00:02:46,630 hello my name is riley rossen and my 72 00:02:52,550 --> 00:02:50,319 question is aren't you ever worried that 73 00:02:55,350 --> 00:02:52,560 from the rockets the fuel that it will 74 00:02:57,350 --> 00:02:55,360 pollute outer space 75 00:02:59,990 --> 00:02:57,360 i see that's a very environmental 76 00:03:02,149 --> 00:03:00,000 question absolutely and we do a lot to 77 00:03:03,589 --> 00:03:02,159 really make sure that we understand 78 00:03:05,430 --> 00:03:03,599 where everything 79 00:03:08,070 --> 00:03:05,440 that we put out of our vehicles goes 80 00:03:10,869 --> 00:03:08,080 whether it's our rocket fuel or even our 81 00:03:13,509 --> 00:03:10,879 trash um or other things like that so 82 00:03:14,869 --> 00:03:13,519 we're very very aware of what kinds of 83 00:03:17,110 --> 00:03:14,879 things we're putting out into the 84 00:03:21,110 --> 00:03:17,120 atmosphere or in the case of space the 85 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,470 thank you 86 00:03:29,030 --> 00:03:26,949 my name is brandon cuda my question is 87 00:03:33,589 --> 00:03:29,040 can you like tell the 88 00:03:34,789 --> 00:03:33,599 of what the weather would be like on 89 00:03:36,630 --> 00:03:34,799 earth 90 00:03:38,869 --> 00:03:36,640 absolutely and in fact if you watch the 91 00:03:41,670 --> 00:03:38,879 news and you learn about you know storm 92 00:03:43,750 --> 00:03:41,680 systems whether it's rain or snow 93 00:03:45,190 --> 00:03:43,760 all of those that information is coming 94 00:03:47,509 --> 00:03:45,200 from our satellites that we have 95 00:03:49,910 --> 00:03:47,519 positioned around our planet 96 00:03:52,710 --> 00:03:49,920 in part thanks to our space space 97 00:03:53,990 --> 00:03:52,720 shuttle and space missions and so you 98 00:03:56,229 --> 00:03:54,000 know a lot of what we're doing in our 99 00:03:58,070 --> 00:03:56,239 space program is not only to go explore 100 00:04:01,190 --> 00:03:58,080 places like the moon or mars or even an 101 00:04:03,670 --> 00:04:01,200 asteroid but a huge influence is to make 102 00:04:05,509 --> 00:04:03,680 sure that we are affecting and 103 00:04:07,270 --> 00:04:05,519 benefiting life here on earth and that's 104 00:04:10,470 --> 00:04:07,280 through monitoring the weather and 105 00:04:11,910 --> 00:04:10,480 keeping everyone informed 106 00:04:14,309 --> 00:04:11,920 okay thank you 107 00:04:17,189 --> 00:04:14,319 great question 108 00:04:19,830 --> 00:04:17,199 hello my name is devin spain and i want 109 00:04:22,230 --> 00:04:19,840 to know how you assure that the uh the 110 00:04:24,629 --> 00:04:22,240 astronauts have enough oxygen to survive 111 00:04:26,150 --> 00:04:24,639 in space yeah great question excellent 112 00:04:27,590 --> 00:04:26,160 you know i'm loving these life support 113 00:04:29,590 --> 00:04:27,600 questions because that's a lot of what 114 00:04:32,070 --> 00:04:29,600 i've focused my engineering career on is 115 00:04:34,629 --> 00:04:32,080 making sure the astronauts have not only 116 00:04:36,629 --> 00:04:34,639 enough oxygen but good clean breathing 117 00:04:38,230 --> 00:04:36,639 oxygen to keep our astronauts alive so 118 00:04:40,629 --> 00:04:38,240 they can do all of their work and 119 00:04:43,270 --> 00:04:40,639 science on board the space station so we 120 00:04:45,189 --> 00:04:43,280 bring up oxygen with us when we fly but 121 00:04:47,510 --> 00:04:45,199 then we also can generate oxygen and we 122 00:04:49,670 --> 00:04:47,520 recycle that oxygen as well our 123 00:04:51,510 --> 00:04:49,680 spacesuits have oxygen tanks so it's 124 00:04:53,510 --> 00:04:51,520 kind of like your own portable breathing 125 00:04:54,390 --> 00:04:53,520 apparatus inside of the life support 126 00:04:56,390 --> 00:04:54,400 system 127 00:04:59,749 --> 00:04:56,400 and then we have adequate oxygen onboard 128 00:04:59,759 --> 00:05:03,270 thank you 129 00:05:08,390 --> 00:05:05,510 my name is patrick huntington 130 00:05:11,749 --> 00:05:08,400 and if is nasa competitive with any 131 00:05:13,189 --> 00:05:11,759 other space programs if so who are they 132 00:05:15,670 --> 00:05:13,199 good question well back in the day 133 00:05:17,990 --> 00:05:15,680 patrick we were actually in a space race 134 00:05:20,230 --> 00:05:18,000 with what are now our partners um the 135 00:05:22,710 --> 00:05:20,240 russians so a long time ago we were 136 00:05:25,430 --> 00:05:22,720 under more of a competition but nowadays 137 00:05:27,670 --> 00:05:25,440 it's really about all about teamwork we 138 00:05:29,189 --> 00:05:27,680 have 16 international partners in 139 00:05:31,590 --> 00:05:29,199 working on the international space 140 00:05:33,430 --> 00:05:31,600 station and it's more important to think 141 00:05:35,510 --> 00:05:33,440 about how we can work together instead 142 00:05:37,110 --> 00:05:35,520 of competing against each other and we 143 00:05:39,029 --> 00:05:37,120 not only have our international partners 144 00:05:41,270 --> 00:05:39,039 for space station but we've now branched 145 00:05:43,270 --> 00:05:41,280 out to our industry partners you know we 146 00:05:45,189 --> 00:05:43,280 just launched the cygnus so that is a 147 00:05:47,510 --> 00:05:45,199 great example of one of our new 148 00:05:49,110 --> 00:05:47,520 commercial spacecraft that is going to 149 00:05:51,590 --> 00:05:49,120 connect with our space station in just a 150 00:05:55,110 --> 00:05:51,600 few days 151 00:06:01,350 --> 00:05:58,230 my name is neil jackson and i don't know 152 00:06:03,670 --> 00:06:01,360 what rocket fuel is made of 153 00:06:05,189 --> 00:06:03,680 what rocket fuels neil what rocket fuel 154 00:06:07,350 --> 00:06:05,199 is made of well that depends on the 155 00:06:09,830 --> 00:06:07,360 rocket i suppose you know 156 00:06:11,590 --> 00:06:09,840 our space shuttle had solid propellant 157 00:06:14,070 --> 00:06:11,600 as well as liquid and i don't know the 158 00:06:15,749 --> 00:06:14,080 exact formulation because that is not my 159 00:06:17,510 --> 00:06:15,759 area of expertise 160 00:06:18,950 --> 00:06:17,520 but really when you think about where 161 00:06:20,629 --> 00:06:18,960 you're going in space that's going to 162 00:06:22,150 --> 00:06:20,639 determine what kind of propellant you 163 00:06:24,469 --> 00:06:22,160 would use so if you're going into low 164 00:06:26,150 --> 00:06:24,479 earth orbit you probably don't need as 165 00:06:27,990 --> 00:06:26,160 much as you would need if you were going 166 00:06:29,189 --> 00:06:28,000 to a place like the moon or even further 167 00:06:32,710 --> 00:06:29,199 like mars 168 00:06:37,430 --> 00:06:35,590 cute 169 00:06:39,430 --> 00:06:37,440 hello my name is connor pitts and my 170 00:06:42,150 --> 00:06:39,440 question is what is your plan to put 171 00:06:43,749 --> 00:06:42,160 people back on space 172 00:06:45,590 --> 00:06:43,759 well connor we have people in space 173 00:06:47,270 --> 00:06:45,600 right now on board the international 174 00:06:49,430 --> 00:06:47,280 space station living up there for about 175 00:06:51,270 --> 00:06:49,440 six months at a time and we just 176 00:06:53,029 --> 00:06:51,280 recently um 177 00:06:54,790 --> 00:06:53,039 selected our first astronaut and 178 00:06:56,950 --> 00:06:54,800 cosmonaut who are going to live on board 179 00:06:59,589 --> 00:06:56,960 the space station for one year 180 00:07:01,430 --> 00:06:59,599 continuously so we have people up there 181 00:07:03,830 --> 00:07:01,440 pretty much 24 hours a day seven days a 182 00:07:05,749 --> 00:07:03,840 week right now now as far as looking to 183 00:07:07,430 --> 00:07:05,759 our next destinations we're trying to 184 00:07:09,029 --> 00:07:07,440 figure out if we want to go back to the 185 00:07:11,510 --> 00:07:09,039 moon which would be pretty cool in my 186 00:07:13,110 --> 00:07:11,520 opinion or maybe even go and find an 187 00:07:15,589 --> 00:07:13,120 asteroid and bring it back closer to 188 00:07:18,790 --> 00:07:15,599 earth so we could study it or eventually 189 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,309 thank you 190 00:07:27,430 --> 00:07:24,950 my name is olivia rozika and my question 191 00:07:29,589 --> 00:07:27,440 is what materials are in the present-day 192 00:07:31,510 --> 00:07:29,599 spacesuits 193 00:07:33,350 --> 00:07:31,520 excellent question and there's several 194 00:07:35,270 --> 00:07:33,360 different layers in our spacesuit and 195 00:07:36,469 --> 00:07:35,280 all of those layers are important 196 00:07:38,070 --> 00:07:36,479 because 197 00:07:40,469 --> 00:07:38,080 they make sure that the astronaut stays 198 00:07:42,230 --> 00:07:40,479 alive inside of the suit as well as 199 00:07:44,550 --> 00:07:42,240 thermally protected 200 00:07:47,029 --> 00:07:44,560 so we first have a layer that kind of 201 00:07:49,430 --> 00:07:47,039 acts not as flexible as a balloon but a 202 00:07:51,189 --> 00:07:49,440 balloon when you inflate it with air it 203 00:07:53,189 --> 00:07:51,199 holds that air and especially if you tie 204 00:07:55,189 --> 00:07:53,199 it up really tight well because we 205 00:07:57,430 --> 00:07:55,199 essentially inflate our spacesuit with 206 00:07:59,990 --> 00:07:57,440 oxygen you need a layer a pressure layer 207 00:08:01,830 --> 00:08:00,000 that's going to hold that oxygen in 208 00:08:03,430 --> 00:08:01,840 but once you inflate a balloon it tends 209 00:08:04,710 --> 00:08:03,440 to get kind of rigid and it wants to 210 00:08:07,029 --> 00:08:04,720 stay in the shape that it's been 211 00:08:09,589 --> 00:08:07,039 designed to be the spacesuit is no 212 00:08:11,029 --> 00:08:09,599 different so then the second layer is 213 00:08:13,029 --> 00:08:11,039 what we call a restraint layer and it's 214 00:08:15,110 --> 00:08:13,039 made out of dacron which is found in a 215 00:08:16,790 --> 00:08:15,120 lot of camping equipment it's a very 216 00:08:19,430 --> 00:08:16,800 nice lightweight 217 00:08:21,510 --> 00:08:19,440 flexible somewhat flexible material and 218 00:08:23,670 --> 00:08:21,520 we can sew that material to make the 219 00:08:25,830 --> 00:08:23,680 spacesuit into more of a human shape and 220 00:08:27,270 --> 00:08:25,840 that's what's going to hold that bladder 221 00:08:28,869 --> 00:08:27,280 that pressure layer 222 00:08:31,670 --> 00:08:28,879 in and make sure it doesn't over 223 00:08:33,909 --> 00:08:31,680 pressurize and then we have a multi 224 00:08:35,750 --> 00:08:33,919 multi-layer garment that first starts 225 00:08:37,750 --> 00:08:35,760 off with neoprene and if any of you are 226 00:08:39,829 --> 00:08:37,760 interested in scuba diving you would 227 00:08:41,350 --> 00:08:39,839 wear a wetsuit that's primarily made out 228 00:08:43,430 --> 00:08:41,360 of neoprene to make sure that you stay 229 00:08:45,910 --> 00:08:43,440 nice and warm especially as you go 230 00:08:47,430 --> 00:08:45,920 deeper into the water environment we 231 00:08:49,509 --> 00:08:47,440 have neoprene in the spacesuit for the 232 00:08:52,150 --> 00:08:49,519 same reason to keep our astronauts 233 00:08:54,710 --> 00:08:52,160 comfortable inside then we have multiple 234 00:08:56,550 --> 00:08:54,720 layers of a really shiny material called 235 00:08:58,630 --> 00:08:56,560 mylar and if you've ever gotten a happy 236 00:09:00,389 --> 00:08:58,640 birthday balloon from a grocery store 237 00:09:02,150 --> 00:09:00,399 one of those shiny ones that's typically 238 00:09:03,829 --> 00:09:02,160 made of a thicker mylar than what we 239 00:09:06,310 --> 00:09:03,839 have in the spacesuit 240 00:09:07,829 --> 00:09:06,320 or here in texas every day and summer we 241 00:09:09,590 --> 00:09:07,839 have to put up those sun shields in the 242 00:09:11,430 --> 00:09:09,600 car otherwise the car gets really hot 243 00:09:13,030 --> 00:09:11,440 well mine is made out of mylar so i 244 00:09:14,550 --> 00:09:13,040 always think about that hey cool i'm in 245 00:09:16,150 --> 00:09:14,560 a spacesuit right now 246 00:09:18,710 --> 00:09:16,160 and then the outer garment that's white 247 00:09:20,470 --> 00:09:18,720 is actually a combination of materials 248 00:09:23,190 --> 00:09:20,480 nomex which is in a lot of our 249 00:09:25,269 --> 00:09:23,200 firefighter suits kevlar which is in 250 00:09:27,910 --> 00:09:25,279 bulletproof vests and then a little bit 251 00:09:29,829 --> 00:09:27,920 of teflon as well so a lot of really 252 00:09:31,990 --> 00:09:29,839 common materials that we use here on 253 00:09:35,990 --> 00:09:32,000 earth we've developed into a garment 254 00:09:42,710 --> 00:09:37,190 thank you 255 00:09:46,070 --> 00:09:44,630 hi my name is hannah vandermae and my 256 00:09:48,310 --> 00:09:46,080 question is 257 00:09:51,110 --> 00:09:48,320 what what is what's the farthest planet 258 00:09:52,949 --> 00:09:51,120 that nasa's been to 259 00:09:55,110 --> 00:09:52,959 excellent question well the farthest 260 00:09:56,870 --> 00:09:55,120 that we've been with humans 261 00:09:58,070 --> 00:09:56,880 is to the moon and that's not really a 262 00:09:59,910 --> 00:09:58,080 planet 263 00:10:01,750 --> 00:09:59,920 but of course we've got our rovers on 264 00:10:03,670 --> 00:10:01,760 mars right now and we've got a lot of 265 00:10:05,910 --> 00:10:03,680 different vehicles that are out there 266 00:10:08,230 --> 00:10:05,920 exploring space even beyond and i think 267 00:10:10,710 --> 00:10:08,240 one recently just even went beyond our 268 00:10:12,630 --> 00:10:10,720 solar system yeah voyager 1. that's 269 00:10:14,310 --> 00:10:12,640 right voyager 1 is out there collecting 270 00:10:17,990 --> 00:10:14,320 great information for our scientists and 271 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,430 thank you 272 00:10:26,550 --> 00:10:23,509 hi my name is drew patterson i was going 273 00:10:28,150 --> 00:10:26,560 to ask how many degrees have you earned 274 00:10:32,550 --> 00:10:28,160 all right drew well that is a great 275 00:10:34,790 --> 00:10:32,560 question i started a long answer 276 00:10:37,269 --> 00:10:34,800 i started off at auburn university in 277 00:10:39,590 --> 00:10:37,279 alabama and i studied mechanical 278 00:10:41,910 --> 00:10:39,600 engineering and spanish so i have two 279 00:10:43,430 --> 00:10:41,920 undergraduate degrees and during that 280 00:10:45,190 --> 00:10:43,440 time i actually was also a student 281 00:10:47,430 --> 00:10:45,200 working at nasa so it was a great way to 282 00:10:48,710 --> 00:10:47,440 kind of get some work experience in to 283 00:10:50,230 --> 00:10:48,720 try to figure out 284 00:10:52,790 --> 00:10:50,240 what type of engineering work i'd want 285 00:10:54,710 --> 00:10:52,800 to do when i eventually got hired here i 286 00:10:56,870 --> 00:10:54,720 then went to the university of texas at 287 00:10:58,710 --> 00:10:56,880 austin to continue my mechanical 288 00:11:01,030 --> 00:10:58,720 engineering studies and i got a master's 289 00:11:02,949 --> 00:11:01,040 degree there then i joined the nasa 290 00:11:04,550 --> 00:11:02,959 workforce and a few years afterwards i 291 00:11:06,389 --> 00:11:04,560 realized that i just was not done with 292 00:11:08,710 --> 00:11:06,399 my education and i went to the 293 00:11:10,870 --> 00:11:08,720 university of houston clear lake and got 294 00:11:12,470 --> 00:11:10,880 a master's degree in fitness and human 295 00:11:15,110 --> 00:11:12,480 performance to really get a better 296 00:11:17,590 --> 00:11:15,120 understanding of how the human body 297 00:11:19,190 --> 00:11:17,600 works when we're under exercise and i've 298 00:11:21,750 --> 00:11:19,200 spent a long time working with our 299 00:11:23,590 --> 00:11:21,760 spacesuit team and we talk about working 300 00:11:25,829 --> 00:11:23,600 in the spacesuit is really about six to 301 00:11:27,670 --> 00:11:25,839 eight hours of exercise so thinking 302 00:11:29,110 --> 00:11:27,680 about how to prepare enough oxygen for 303 00:11:31,350 --> 00:11:29,120 them to breathe you have to understand 304 00:11:33,750 --> 00:11:31,360 how that exercise affects your heart 305 00:11:35,509 --> 00:11:33,760 rate your your lung capacity 306 00:11:37,829 --> 00:11:35,519 i think that's a 307 00:11:40,069 --> 00:11:37,839 that's a really good example of how your 308 00:11:41,430 --> 00:11:40,079 education can continue even after you 309 00:11:42,790 --> 00:11:41,440 finish school i know you're probably 310 00:11:44,150 --> 00:11:42,800 thinking right now i don't want to go to 311 00:11:44,949 --> 00:11:44,160 school anymore 312 00:11:47,269 --> 00:11:44,959 but 313 00:11:49,829 --> 00:11:47,279 you may want to once you've gotten out 314 00:11:51,590 --> 00:11:49,839 and and you started working and you say 315 00:11:53,910 --> 00:11:51,600 there's so much more that i want to 316 00:11:55,509 --> 00:11:53,920 learn and heather's a perfect example of 317 00:11:58,069 --> 00:11:55,519 someone who 318 00:12:00,629 --> 00:11:58,079 continues to want to learn even after 319 00:12:02,790 --> 00:12:00,639 being a professional and working 320 00:12:04,550 --> 00:12:02,800 you know after school and so 321 00:12:06,629 --> 00:12:04,560 that's a really good question and you 322 00:12:08,710 --> 00:12:06,639 guys don't don't feel like you stop at 323 00:12:10,949 --> 00:12:08,720 high school or college 324 00:12:17,269 --> 00:12:10,959 you can you can keep learning even after 325 00:12:22,870 --> 00:12:19,910 hello my name hello my name is leon and 326 00:12:25,670 --> 00:12:22,880 yuki my question is how many gallons of 327 00:12:28,790 --> 00:12:25,680 field does it take to launch the rocket 328 00:12:32,870 --> 00:12:30,790 man this is a toughy i don't know i'd 329 00:12:34,550 --> 00:12:32,880 have to go and look that up 330 00:12:36,710 --> 00:12:34,560 yeah the uh 331 00:12:39,509 --> 00:12:36,720 i know that the uh the space shuttle 332 00:12:41,990 --> 00:12:39,519 which we just retired obviously the um 333 00:12:45,910 --> 00:12:42,000 it's about a half a million gallons of 334 00:12:48,790 --> 00:12:45,920 uh propellant oxygen and and hydrogen 335 00:12:51,350 --> 00:12:48,800 uh that's required to uh to get a space 336 00:12:53,990 --> 00:12:51,360 shuttle into orbit and and the moon 337 00:12:55,590 --> 00:12:54,000 rockets uh back in the late 60s and 338 00:12:57,910 --> 00:12:55,600 early 70s was 339 00:12:59,750 --> 00:12:57,920 even more than that um 340 00:13:01,990 --> 00:12:59,760 remembering that the atmosphere is very 341 00:13:03,829 --> 00:13:02,000 thick and the hardest part of of a 342 00:13:06,389 --> 00:13:03,839 rocket launch is actually the first two 343 00:13:08,470 --> 00:13:06,399 minutes or so once you get past that you 344 00:13:10,150 --> 00:13:08,480 get into the thin part of the atmosphere 345 00:13:11,910 --> 00:13:10,160 the vehicle's engines are start 346 00:13:13,670 --> 00:13:11,920 accelerating the vehicle because the 347 00:13:16,150 --> 00:13:13,680 atmosphere is so thin and suddenly you 348 00:13:18,870 --> 00:13:16,160 get to a point where you're almost 349 00:13:20,230 --> 00:13:18,880 out of the atmosphere completely and so 350 00:13:22,069 --> 00:13:20,240 you don't need as much propellant to 351 00:13:24,870 --> 00:13:22,079 move around once you're in space but you 352 00:13:27,190 --> 00:13:24,880 still require it to move uh but that's a 353 00:13:29,430 --> 00:13:27,200 great question it is takes a great deal 354 00:13:32,230 --> 00:13:29,440 of propellant to break earth's gravity 355 00:13:35,110 --> 00:13:32,240 and so living in space and and moving 356 00:13:36,870 --> 00:13:35,120 from space to further deeper space 357 00:13:39,269 --> 00:13:36,880 you know may eventually be the way to go 358 00:13:40,550 --> 00:13:39,279 and and and produce propellant depots in 359 00:13:42,710 --> 00:13:40,560 space where you 360 00:13:44,230 --> 00:13:42,720 refuel like a gas station and then go 361 00:13:45,910 --> 00:13:44,240 further because you don't you might not 362 00:13:47,509 --> 00:13:45,920 need as much out there that's a great 363 00:13:50,470 --> 00:13:47,519 question really great and that really 364 00:13:53,110 --> 00:13:50,480 relies a lot on orbital mechanics too 365 00:13:55,509 --> 00:13:53,120 understanding how if you can do a loop 366 00:13:57,750 --> 00:13:55,519 or two around a planet like earth or 367 00:14:00,069 --> 00:13:57,760 maybe even around the moon you can use 368 00:14:01,990 --> 00:14:00,079 that gravitational pull to essentially 369 00:14:04,150 --> 00:14:02,000 slingshot your vehicle so maybe you 370 00:14:06,389 --> 00:14:04,160 don't need as much propellant the more 371 00:14:08,710 --> 00:14:06,399 propellant you have on launch 372 00:14:10,949 --> 00:14:08,720 the heavier your vehicle is the harder 373 00:14:12,550 --> 00:14:10,959 it is to really get up into space so our 374 00:14:14,230 --> 00:14:12,560 engineers and our scientists are really 375 00:14:16,310 --> 00:14:14,240 smart about looking at all the different 376 00:14:18,470 --> 00:14:16,320 options for if we want to go from earth 377 00:14:23,750 --> 00:14:18,480 to a destination what's going to be the 378 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,990 thanks 379 00:14:32,389 --> 00:14:30,069 hi my name is kennedy and i was 380 00:14:35,269 --> 00:14:32,399 wondering how long did you stay in 381 00:14:37,829 --> 00:14:35,279 college to have this job 382 00:14:40,389 --> 00:14:37,839 good question kennedy well i was at 383 00:14:42,310 --> 00:14:40,399 auburn university for a total of about 384 00:14:44,389 --> 00:14:42,320 four and a half years that's my time 385 00:14:46,790 --> 00:14:44,399 that i was actually at school 386 00:14:48,629 --> 00:14:46,800 but i was also taking some time to do a 387 00:14:51,670 --> 00:14:48,639 semester at school and then a semester 388 00:14:54,310 --> 00:14:51,680 at nasa so it took me probably about 389 00:14:56,870 --> 00:14:54,320 seven years total to get through 390 00:14:58,550 --> 00:14:56,880 my school as well as my work experience 391 00:15:00,150 --> 00:14:58,560 and i decided to extend out my work 392 00:15:02,389 --> 00:15:00,160 experience a little bit because i just 393 00:15:04,310 --> 00:15:02,399 loved so much working here and it really 394 00:15:06,230 --> 00:15:04,320 helped me to understand 395 00:15:07,670 --> 00:15:06,240 what all of that those theories and 396 00:15:09,750 --> 00:15:07,680 those homework projects that i had to 397 00:15:11,350 --> 00:15:09,760 learn at school how to apply them to 398 00:15:13,189 --> 00:15:11,360 really cool stuff that could fly in 399 00:15:14,949 --> 00:15:13,199 space so i thought it was an important 400 00:15:17,110 --> 00:15:14,959 thing for me to really 401 00:15:18,710 --> 00:15:17,120 do my research here at nasa too to 402 00:15:21,110 --> 00:15:18,720 figure out where i would best fit in and 403 00:15:22,870 --> 00:15:21,120 what i wanted to do with my career then 404 00:15:24,629 --> 00:15:22,880 my graduate degree took me about two 405 00:15:26,629 --> 00:15:24,639 years and even then i was still 406 00:15:35,670 --> 00:15:26,639 alternating between a semester at school 407 00:15:39,670 --> 00:15:38,230 hi my name is danny what is the favorite 408 00:15:41,990 --> 00:15:39,680 part what is your favorite part of your 409 00:15:45,990 --> 00:15:44,150 oh danny wow i wish i could answer 410 00:15:47,749 --> 00:15:46,000 several things you know i think one of 411 00:15:50,150 --> 00:15:47,759 the favorite things that i think about 412 00:15:52,550 --> 00:15:50,160 when i get to work here is working with 413 00:15:53,990 --> 00:15:52,560 this great team of people it's really 414 00:15:55,269 --> 00:15:54,000 all about teamwork here when you look at 415 00:15:56,870 --> 00:15:55,279 the mission control center i mean 416 00:15:59,430 --> 00:15:56,880 there's several people here that are all 417 00:16:02,150 --> 00:15:59,440 working together as a team to make sure 418 00:16:03,670 --> 00:16:02,160 astronauts are living successfully and 419 00:16:05,990 --> 00:16:03,680 working on board the space station and 420 00:16:07,509 --> 00:16:06,000 even behind the scenes we have rooms 421 00:16:09,509 --> 00:16:07,519 full of people that are supporting each 422 00:16:11,670 --> 00:16:09,519 person here in mission control and then 423 00:16:13,749 --> 00:16:11,680 engineers and scientists all across 424 00:16:15,350 --> 00:16:13,759 johnson space center all across the 425 00:16:16,790 --> 00:16:15,360 united states at our different nasa 426 00:16:18,470 --> 00:16:16,800 centers and just 427 00:16:20,629 --> 00:16:18,480 the amount of teamwork and effort and 428 00:16:22,629 --> 00:16:20,639 communication it's just amazing to be a 429 00:16:23,990 --> 00:16:22,639 part of and then the other thing i like 430 00:16:25,749 --> 00:16:24,000 to think about with my engineering 431 00:16:27,990 --> 00:16:25,759 career is i really see myself as a 432 00:16:30,710 --> 00:16:28,000 problem solver so if you like solving 433 00:16:32,790 --> 00:16:30,720 puzzles whether it's sudoku a crossword 434 00:16:34,230 --> 00:16:32,800 or putting a jigsaw puzzle together 435 00:16:36,389 --> 00:16:34,240 that's really the heart and the essence 436 00:16:38,470 --> 00:16:36,399 of engineering is being willing to look 437 00:16:40,470 --> 00:16:38,480 at a problem and see it as a creative 438 00:16:42,629 --> 00:16:40,480 challenge and how can you overcome that 439 00:16:50,550 --> 00:16:42,639 and fix that problem so i like to say 440 00:16:54,550 --> 00:16:52,710 hi my name is abby and i was wondering 441 00:16:56,710 --> 00:16:54,560 about how old you were when you decided 442 00:16:58,550 --> 00:16:56,720 she wanted to become an engineer 443 00:17:01,189 --> 00:16:58,560 that's a great question that's a great 444 00:17:03,269 --> 00:17:01,199 question abby i was interested in space 445 00:17:05,189 --> 00:17:03,279 from a very very young age but when i 446 00:17:07,750 --> 00:17:05,199 decided i wanted to become an engineer 447 00:17:10,309 --> 00:17:07,760 was probably about your age i started 448 00:17:11,829 --> 00:17:10,319 realizing that to be an astronaut you 449 00:17:13,429 --> 00:17:11,839 could go down a couple of different 450 00:17:15,510 --> 00:17:13,439 different career paths and one of them 451 00:17:17,750 --> 00:17:15,520 was engineering and the benefit with 452 00:17:19,429 --> 00:17:17,760 going into engineering was that if i 453 00:17:21,909 --> 00:17:19,439 didn't end up getting selected to be an 454 00:17:23,510 --> 00:17:21,919 astronaut i could do what's really a 455 00:17:24,710 --> 00:17:23,520 very close second which is be an 456 00:17:26,549 --> 00:17:24,720 engineer 457 00:17:27,909 --> 00:17:26,559 that works and trains the astronauts and 458 00:17:30,150 --> 00:17:27,919 develops the the hardware that the 459 00:17:31,909 --> 00:17:30,160 astronauts get to use in space and in 460 00:17:33,669 --> 00:17:31,919 fact a lot of the training that our 461 00:17:35,590 --> 00:17:33,679 astronauts go through our engineers have 462 00:17:37,430 --> 00:17:35,600 to do as well especially when you're 463 00:17:38,710 --> 00:17:37,440 thinking about a spacesuit design or 464 00:17:40,070 --> 00:17:38,720 some hardware that the astronauts are 465 00:17:41,830 --> 00:17:40,080 going to use 466 00:17:43,750 --> 00:17:41,840 our engineers have to be familiar with 467 00:17:45,350 --> 00:17:43,760 working with that same equipment so that 468 00:17:47,990 --> 00:17:45,360 if there is something that happens in 469 00:17:50,630 --> 00:17:48,000 space we can replicate it or simulate it 470 00:17:52,390 --> 00:17:50,640 here on earth so really being an 471 00:17:54,549 --> 00:17:52,400 engineer for nasa is something that i 472 00:17:56,390 --> 00:17:54,559 thought about a long time ago i didn't 473 00:17:58,070 --> 00:17:56,400 know which kind of engineer i wanted to 474 00:17:59,909 --> 00:17:58,080 be but once i started looking at 475 00:18:02,230 --> 00:17:59,919 colleges i realized that mechanical 476 00:18:03,830 --> 00:18:02,240 engineering was the way to go because of 477 00:18:05,750 --> 00:18:03,840 all of the different opportunities the 478 00:18:07,510 --> 00:18:05,760 really foundational aspects of 479 00:18:08,230 --> 00:18:07,520 mechanical engineering would allow me to 480 00:18:12,870 --> 00:18:08,240 do 481 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:17,830 thank you 482 00:18:23,590 --> 00:18:20,470 hi my name is bonnie and i was wondering 483 00:18:26,310 --> 00:18:23,600 what qualifications do you need to be 484 00:18:28,470 --> 00:18:26,320 a engineer nasa 485 00:18:30,470 --> 00:18:28,480 excellent question well you first of all 486 00:18:32,630 --> 00:18:30,480 have to go to college and study some 487 00:18:34,310 --> 00:18:32,640 kind of a technical degree typically 488 00:18:36,230 --> 00:18:34,320 engineering 489 00:18:37,430 --> 00:18:36,240 and get your bachelor of science degree 490 00:18:39,990 --> 00:18:37,440 in engineering and that can be 491 00:18:42,470 --> 00:18:40,000 mechanical chemical electrical computer 492 00:18:44,950 --> 00:18:42,480 industrial i work with so many different 493 00:18:47,190 --> 00:18:44,960 types of engineers and really realizing 494 00:18:48,789 --> 00:18:47,200 that you may not even need to do that 495 00:18:51,350 --> 00:18:48,799 kind of engineering ultimately because 496 00:18:54,950 --> 00:18:51,360 really we have to be able to kind of 497 00:18:56,789 --> 00:18:54,960 merge into other aspects of engineering 498 00:18:58,630 --> 00:18:56,799 so a minimum i would say is a bachelor 499 00:19:00,310 --> 00:18:58,640 of science degree now some of our 500 00:19:02,950 --> 00:19:00,320 engineers like me choose to go on and 501 00:19:04,710 --> 00:19:02,960 get a master's but it's not required we 502 00:19:06,310 --> 00:19:04,720 also like to make sure that you have 503 00:19:08,630 --> 00:19:06,320 some work experience so if you're 504 00:19:10,549 --> 00:19:08,640 interested in engineering start looking 505 00:19:12,230 --> 00:19:10,559 at opportunities for internships whether 506 00:19:14,230 --> 00:19:12,240 it's here at nasa which of course i 507 00:19:16,470 --> 00:19:14,240 highly recommend or with one of our 508 00:19:17,990 --> 00:19:16,480 contract partners or one of our 509 00:19:19,750 --> 00:19:18,000 commercial partners there's a lot of 510 00:19:22,310 --> 00:19:19,760 opportunities out there to get that work 511 00:19:26,630 --> 00:19:22,320 experience 512 00:19:31,909 --> 00:19:29,750 um hello my name is angelica santiago my 513 00:19:34,549 --> 00:19:31,919 question is how does a person sleep in 514 00:19:38,230 --> 00:19:36,630 a very important aspect of living in 515 00:19:40,630 --> 00:19:38,240 space you got to make sure that you get 516 00:19:42,230 --> 00:19:40,640 enough rest we have crew quarters where 517 00:19:43,830 --> 00:19:42,240 the astronauts basically can kind of 518 00:19:45,350 --> 00:19:43,840 close themselves up in their own little 519 00:19:46,950 --> 00:19:45,360 personal space 520 00:19:48,150 --> 00:19:46,960 and really what they sleep in is 521 00:19:50,390 --> 00:19:48,160 something that looks a lot like a 522 00:19:52,870 --> 00:19:50,400 sleeping bag they climb into it their 523 00:19:55,270 --> 00:19:52,880 legs go in and one of the more 524 00:19:56,710 --> 00:19:55,280 interesting things that the astronauts 525 00:19:59,190 --> 00:19:56,720 have shared with me about sleeping in 526 00:20:01,590 --> 00:19:59,200 space is that they miss that sensation 527 00:20:04,070 --> 00:20:01,600 of resting their head on a pillow so we 528 00:20:06,149 --> 00:20:04,080 had to design a head strap that would go 529 00:20:07,909 --> 00:20:06,159 across the astronaut's head to tilt 530 00:20:09,830 --> 00:20:07,919 their head back and then rest on the 531 00:20:11,590 --> 00:20:09,840 back of their sleeping bag essentially 532 00:20:13,830 --> 00:20:11,600 to give them that feeling 533 00:20:15,750 --> 00:20:13,840 of sleeping and a lot of times our 534 00:20:17,669 --> 00:20:15,760 astronauts can choose or not choose to 535 00:20:19,350 --> 00:20:17,679 restrain their arms so sometimes if you 536 00:20:20,789 --> 00:20:19,360 see astronauts sleeping in space their 537 00:20:22,870 --> 00:20:20,799 arms have risen up and they look a 538 00:20:24,310 --> 00:20:22,880 little bit like a mummy just in time for 539 00:20:25,990 --> 00:20:24,320 halloween 540 00:20:28,149 --> 00:20:26,000 but i've heard it's very comfortable to 541 00:20:29,510 --> 00:20:28,159 sleep in space and really we work our 542 00:20:31,190 --> 00:20:29,520 astronauts pretty hard and they do a lot 543 00:20:34,310 --> 00:20:31,200 of great work for us so by the time they 544 00:20:42,070 --> 00:20:34,320 get to lay down or float and sleep 545 00:20:45,270 --> 00:20:44,070 hi my name is sophia morgan and i'm 546 00:20:48,950 --> 00:20:45,280 wondering 547 00:20:50,950 --> 00:20:48,960 why did you decide to be part of nasa 548 00:20:52,710 --> 00:20:50,960 excellent excellent question 549 00:20:53,990 --> 00:20:52,720 well back when i was about your age and 550 00:20:56,470 --> 00:20:54,000 i started looking at the different 551 00:20:58,149 --> 00:20:56,480 career options that were out there i was 552 00:20:59,990 --> 00:20:58,159 so interested i was already tied into 553 00:21:00,870 --> 00:21:00,000 what nasa was doing 554 00:21:05,029 --> 00:21:00,880 through 555 00:21:06,789 --> 00:21:05,039 and i really just decided that to be an 556 00:21:08,630 --> 00:21:06,799 astronaut or even an engineer working in 557 00:21:09,510 --> 00:21:08,640 the space program nasa was the place to 558 00:21:11,750 --> 00:21:09,520 be 559 00:21:13,830 --> 00:21:11,760 nowadays there's even more opportunities 560 00:21:15,510 --> 00:21:13,840 of course nasa is really at the 561 00:21:17,110 --> 00:21:15,520 forefront of working with our 562 00:21:18,870 --> 00:21:17,120 international space station and looking 563 00:21:20,789 --> 00:21:18,880 at future technologies but there are a 564 00:21:23,110 --> 00:21:20,799 lot of contractor partners that we work 565 00:21:24,390 --> 00:21:23,120 with that offer a similar experience and 566 00:21:26,630 --> 00:21:24,400 we have all of our international 567 00:21:28,149 --> 00:21:26,640 partners so really the opportunities are 568 00:21:30,310 --> 00:21:28,159 even greater for you guys that are 569 00:21:35,669 --> 00:21:30,320 interested in working for the space 570 00:21:38,789 --> 00:21:37,270 hi my name is emily rogers and i was 571 00:21:40,470 --> 00:21:38,799 wondering if you were working on any new 572 00:21:42,549 --> 00:21:40,480 spacesuits 573 00:21:45,350 --> 00:21:42,559 hey emily well i love that t-shirt so 574 00:21:47,750 --> 00:21:45,360 war eagle to you absolutely we are 575 00:21:49,350 --> 00:21:47,760 working on new suits right now and we're 576 00:21:51,029 --> 00:21:49,360 trying to make our suits kind of 577 00:21:52,390 --> 00:21:51,039 multi-purpose because we don't know yet 578 00:21:54,470 --> 00:21:52,400 where we're going 579 00:21:56,230 --> 00:21:54,480 but we're really focusing a lot on a 580 00:21:58,390 --> 00:21:56,240 suit to work with our new 581 00:22:00,230 --> 00:21:58,400 orion vehicle and it's going to look 582 00:22:01,909 --> 00:22:00,240 kind of like the suit that we wore when 583 00:22:03,430 --> 00:22:01,919 our astronauts launched and landed in 584 00:22:05,350 --> 00:22:03,440 the space shuttle the bright orange 585 00:22:07,350 --> 00:22:05,360 advanced crew escape suit 586 00:22:08,230 --> 00:22:07,360 we're working on modifications to that 587 00:22:10,549 --> 00:22:08,240 to 588 00:22:13,110 --> 00:22:10,559 work with the requirements for our our 589 00:22:16,070 --> 00:22:13,120 orion program and then we've got our 590 00:22:18,149 --> 00:22:16,080 engineers off working on a surface suit 591 00:22:20,070 --> 00:22:18,159 as well something that's going to be a 592 00:22:22,310 --> 00:22:20,080 definite upgrade from what we used on 593 00:22:23,750 --> 00:22:22,320 the moon much more mobile hopefully 594 00:22:25,510 --> 00:22:23,760 lighter weight and hopefully more 595 00:22:28,230 --> 00:22:25,520 efficient with the life support system 596 00:22:30,310 --> 00:22:28,240 so maybe we can stay out longer or wear 597 00:22:31,669 --> 00:22:30,320 less weight on our back so stay tuned 598 00:22:33,830 --> 00:22:31,679 and maybe hopefully you can join our 599 00:22:37,029 --> 00:22:33,840 team as well 600 00:22:41,510 --> 00:22:39,270 hi i'm jaleja pay and i was wondering 601 00:22:43,990 --> 00:22:41,520 what happened if an astronaut gets it 602 00:22:45,909 --> 00:22:44,000 can i go home early 603 00:22:49,110 --> 00:22:45,919 a very a very important thing to think 604 00:22:50,310 --> 00:22:49,120 about now our astronauts are trained in 605 00:22:51,990 --> 00:22:50,320 a little bit of medicine so they can 606 00:22:53,669 --> 00:22:52,000 kind of help each other and we have some 607 00:22:55,510 --> 00:22:53,679 certain medications up there if they get 608 00:22:57,270 --> 00:22:55,520 a little under the weather if they 609 00:22:59,669 --> 00:22:57,280 became really serious we'd have to 610 00:23:01,510 --> 00:22:59,679 evaluate how to get them back home but 611 00:23:03,270 --> 00:23:01,520 really our astronauts are very very well 612 00:23:05,590 --> 00:23:03,280 trained to take care of themselves in 613 00:23:08,149 --> 00:23:05,600 space we also have a flight doctor that 614 00:23:09,430 --> 00:23:08,159 is here in mission control that monitors 615 00:23:11,110 --> 00:23:09,440 the crew health and make sure that 616 00:23:13,029 --> 00:23:11,120 they're feeling well enough to stay up 617 00:23:15,430 --> 00:23:13,039 there and do the job 618 00:23:18,549 --> 00:23:15,440 and if it's really an emergency they do 619 00:23:20,390 --> 00:23:18,559 have their spacecraft that's always 620 00:23:24,230 --> 00:23:20,400 at the space station so they can come 621 00:23:26,230 --> 00:23:24,240 home in an emergency fairly quickly 622 00:23:28,549 --> 00:23:26,240 great question 623 00:23:30,870 --> 00:23:28,559 thank you 624 00:23:33,190 --> 00:23:30,880 hi my name is madison essen and i was 625 00:23:34,950 --> 00:23:33,200 wondering what have you learned from the 626 00:23:37,669 --> 00:23:34,960 voyager 1 now it's out of our solar 627 00:23:39,270 --> 00:23:37,679 system 628 00:23:40,950 --> 00:23:39,280 that's an excellent question you know i 629 00:23:42,710 --> 00:23:40,960 think we're excited to see what we 630 00:23:45,110 --> 00:23:42,720 learned from voyager 1. i think it just 631 00:23:46,710 --> 00:23:45,120 left not too long ago so we have a 632 00:23:49,669 --> 00:23:46,720 little bit of time to figure out what 633 00:23:51,990 --> 00:23:49,679 we're going to see next 634 00:23:54,149 --> 00:23:52,000 so hopefully stay tuned to the nasa.gov 635 00:23:55,669 --> 00:23:54,159 website and we'll keep you guys informed 636 00:23:57,269 --> 00:23:55,679 and the other great program that

improvement we've got the 640 00:24:05,190 --> 00:24:03,039 fantastic hubble space telescope up 641 00:24:07,110 --> 00:24:05,200 right now but james webb is going to let 642 00:24:09,350 --> 00:24:07,120 us see even further 643 00:24:11,350 --> 00:24:09,360 out there to see what's going on so 644 00:24:13,430 --> 00:24:11,360 there's a lot of really exciting things 645 00:24:15,190 --> 00:24:13,440 going on in the space program right now 646 00:24:17,029 --> 00:24:15,200 i'm so excited you guys prepared these 647 00:24:19,269 --> 00:24:17,039 amazing questions and i really do hope
