1
00:00:16,630 --> 00:00:14,549
we've come to this program with

2
00:00:18,230 --> 00:00:16,640
different backgrounds and different

3
00:00:20,550 --> 00:00:18,240
experiences

4
00:00:22,950 --> 00:00:20,560
we have a chance to build upon a new

5
00:00:24,870 --> 00:00:22,960
launch capability for america

6
00:00:26,390 --> 00:00:24,880
we're part of a partnership and part of

7
00:00:28,230 --> 00:00:26,400
the partnership is to have different

8
00:00:30,390 --> 00:00:28,240
abilities and so the united states

9
00:00:31,669 --> 00:00:30,400
having access is extremely important to

10
00:00:33,430 --> 00:00:31,679
the effort

11
00:00:35,510 --> 00:00:33,440
one of the things that really gave us

12
00:00:37,270 --> 00:00:35,520
the opportunity to to be ready for this

13
00:00:38,790 --> 00:00:37,280
is all those systems on the space

14
00:00:40,310 --> 00:00:38,800
station are on the space shuttle that we

15
00:00:42,229 --> 00:00:40,320
had to learn in order to be prepared for

16
00:00:44,470 --> 00:00:42,239
a space flight so it really has set us

17
00:00:53,430 --> 00:00:44,480
up for a mindset of learning new things

18
00:00:57,990 --> 00:00:55,510
we have a huge team here at nasa as well

19
00:00:59,830 --> 00:00:58,000
as the great teams at spacex and boeing

20
00:01:02,709 --> 00:00:59,840
that we'll work with to try to make this

21
00:01:04,149 --> 00:01:02,719
vehicle as safe as possible

22
00:01:06,070 --> 00:01:04,159
building that partnership that

23
00:01:07,670 --> 00:01:06,080
relationship where we are

24
00:01:09,429 --> 00:01:07,680
shoulder to shoulder with these

25
00:01:10,630 --> 00:01:09,439
companies as they build this vehicle is

26
00:01:12,390 --> 00:01:10,640
really going to be how we're

27
00:01:13,830 --> 00:01:12,400
instrumental in making sure the vehicles

28
00:01:15,749 --> 00:01:13,840
are ready for the first flights when the

29
00:01:17,350 --> 00:01:15,759
time comes

30
00:01:19,910 --> 00:01:17,360
i'm honored to get the opportunity to

31
00:01:21,749 --> 00:01:19,920
participate with this new group and to

32
00:01:24,789 --> 00:01:21,759
work with the team to get us onto this

33
00:01:27,109 --> 00:01:24,799
next era in space flight

34
00:01:29,590 --> 00:01:27,119
i remember when i launched from kennedy

35
00:01:31,830 --> 00:01:29,600
the first time on a u.s space shuttle

36
00:01:33,670 --> 00:01:31,840
and it was pretty amazing so i can only

37
00:01:36,469 --> 00:01:33,680
imagine what it's going to be like after

38
00:01:39,190 --> 00:01:36,479
this long period of time to get back on

39
00:01:41,670 --> 00:01:39,200
a spacecraft at kennedy and have all

40
00:01:43,270 --> 00:01:41,680
family and friends and people from all

41
00:01:44,789 --> 00:01:43,280
over the country watching that's going

42
00:01:46,550 --> 00:01:44,799
to be pretty special

43
00:01:48,630 --> 00:01:46,560
and so bringing back home will bring
