OUR MOBILITY WET.

00:01:33,660 --> 00:01:37,163
DEVELOPED AND PLANS MADE, BUT

44
00:01:37,230 --> 00:01:38,231
THE GOVERNMENT SIMPLY COULD NOT

00:01:38,298 --> 00:01:39,232
DO IT ALONE.

46
00:01:39,299 --> 00:01:40,633
NOTHING MATERIALIZED.

WE IN THIS ROOM KNOW THAT THIS

71
00:02:39,192 --> 00:02:42,061
IS THE BEGINNING.

72
00:02:42,128 --> 00:02:44,397
NEIL AND BUZZ ALD RUN.

73
00:02:44,464 --> 00:02:46,966
IF HE WAS HERE HE'D TELL YOU

74
00:02:47,033 --> 00:02:52,272
BUZZ ALDRIN IS BUZZ ALDRIN.

75
00:02:52,338 --> 00:02:57,210
AFTER 66 YEARS AFTER LEWIS AND

76
00:02:57,277 --> 00:02:59,812
CLARK EXPEDITION WE BUILT THE

77
00:02:59,879 --> 00:03:00,246
RAILROAD.

78
00:03:00,246 --> 00:03:02,515
IT TOOK 66 YEARS.

79
00:03:02,582 --> 00:03:05,818
49 YEARS AFTER APOLLO 11, IT'S

80
00:03:05,885 --> 00:03:08,054
TIME TO BUILD OUR OWN RAILROAD.

81
00:03:08,121 --> 00:03:10,823
LIKE THEN, WE NEED TO ENABLE

82
00:03:10,890 --> 00:03:12,692
PUBLIC FUNDS TO SUPPORT PRIVATE

83
00:03:12,759 --> 00:03:15,328
EQUITY AND BONDS TO DELIVER MORE

84
00:03:15,395 --> 00:03:15,795

85
00:03:15,795 --> 00:03:17,764
ECONOMIC GROWTH AND SOLIDIFY

86
00:03:17,830 --> 00:03:20,667
AMERICAN LEADERSHIP IN SPACE,

87
00:03:20,733 --> 00:03:22,235
SCIENCE AND DISCOVERY.

88
00:03:22,302 --> 00:03:24,704
I'M FORTUNATE THAT MY TIME COMES

89
00:03:24,771 --> 00:03:29,142
ON THE HEELS OF MICHAEL GRIFFIN,

90
00:03:29,208 --> 00:03:32,412
CHARLIE BOLDEN WHO ENVISIONED

91
00:03:32,478 --> 00:03:34,480
AND ADVANCED THE ORBIT.

92
00:03:34,547 --> 00:03:36,015
LOWERING THE COST AND INCREASING

93
00:03:36,082 --> 00:03:37,417
THE ACCESS TO SPACE.

94
00:03:37,483 --> 00:03:40,153
THE MODEL CAN BE EXTENDED TO AND

95
00:03:40,219 --> 00:03:42,555
AROUND THE ROOM AND DEEPER INTO

96
00:03:42,622 --> 00:03:44,524
SPACE, INCLUDING MARS.

97
00:03:44,591 --> 00:03:45,992
MOVING INTO THE PRESENT.

98
00:03:46,059 --> 00:03:48,494
SATURDAY, WE LUGED INSIGHT TO

99
00:03:48,561 --> 00:03:48,895
MARS.

100
00:03:48,895 --> 00:03:51,831
THIS WAS A GOVERNMENT LANDER

101
00:03:51,898 --> 00:03:54,300
BUILT BY AMERICAN INDUSTRY WITH

102
00:03:54,367 --> 00:03:56,402
INTERNATIONAL PARTNERS, LAUNCHED

103
00:03:56,469 --> 00:03:59,439
ON A COMMERCIALLY PROCURED

104
00:03:59,505 --> 00:04:02,675
ULA ROCKET FROM AN AIR FORCE

105
00:04:02,742 --> 00:04:05,511
BASE.
>> THIS IS, IN FACT, EVIDENCE

106
00:04:05,578 --> 00:04:07,213
THAT WE ARE BUILDING THE

107
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:07,647
RAILROAD.

108
00:04:07,647 --> 00:04:10,450
TIE BY TIE, STAKE BY STAKE.

109
00:04:10,516 --> 00:04:11,784
INSIGHT WILL HELP US UNDERSTAND

110
00:04:11,851 --> 00:04:14,554
THE HISTORY OF MARS.

111
00:04:14,621 --> 00:04:16,856
SO WE CAN BETTER UNDERSTAND OUR

112
00:04:16,923 --> 00:04:17,924
OWN PLANET.

113
00:04:17,991 --> 00:04:21,794
SOME PEOPLE ONLINE MAY NOT BE

114
00:04:21,861 --> 00:04:22,195
AWARE.

115
00:04:22,195 --> 00:04:23,296
THERE ARE PROBABLY YOUNG FOLKS

116
00:04:23,363 --> 00:04:24,130
LISTENING TODAY.

117
00:04:24,197 --> 00:04:27,266
MARS USED TO HAVE A VAST OCEAN.

118
00:04:27,333 --> 00:04:30,970
TWO-THIRDS OF MARS HAD AN OCEAN.

119
00:04:31,037 --> 00:04:33,706
A MAGNETOSPHERE TO PROTECT IT.

120
00:04:33,773 --> 00:04:36,409
AT SOME POINT IN THE PAST MARS

121
00:04:36,476 --> 00:04:36,843
CHANGED.

122
00:04:36,843 --> 00:04:37,710
WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT

123
00:04:37,777 --> 00:04:38,745
CAUSED THAT.

124
00:04:38,811 --> 00:04:42,048
WHAT IS THE HISTORY SO WE CAN

125
00:04:42,115 --> 00:04:43,583
BETTER UNDERSTAND OUR OWN

126
00:04:43,650 --> 00:04:43,983
PLANET.

127
00:04:43,983 --> 00:04:47,387
SINCE THIS IS THE HUMAN TO MARS

128
00:04:47,453 --> 00:04:48,421
SUMMIT.

129
00:04:48,488 --> 00:04:50,390
INSIGHT HELPS TO UNDERSTAND RISK

130
00:04:50,456 --> 00:04:51,290
TO MUSEUM.

131
00:04:51,357 --> 00:04:54,260
MARS IS CLOSER TO THE ASTEROID

132
00:04:54,327 --> 00:04:54,661
BELT.

133
00:04:54,661 --> 00:04:56,696
IT HAS ITS OWN MEDIA SHOWERS.

134
00:04:56,763 --> 00:04:59,332
AND A LESS THICK ATMOSPHERE

135
00:04:59,399 --> 00:05:02,335
MEANS THERE'S MORE DANGER SHOULD

136
00:05:02,402 --> 00:05:05,304
HUMANS - WHEN HUMANS GETS TO

137
00:05:05,371 --> 00:05:05,738
MARS.

138
00:05:05,738 --> 00:05:08,508
MARS HAS MARS QUAKES AND VOOL

139
00:05:08,574 --> 00:05:08,908
CANOES.

140
00:05:08,908 --> 00:05:11,444
>> INSIGHT IS BETTER GOING TO

141
00:05:11,511 --> 00:05:13,112
UNDERSTAND THE RISK TO HUMANS.

142
00:05:13,179 --> 00:05:15,715
WHEN WE GO WE'LL BE BETTERED

143
00:05:15,782 --> 00:05:16,783
INFORMED AND PREPARE.

144
00:05:16,849 --> 00:05:20,219
AS MANY OF YOU KNOW, A FEW DAYS

145
00:05:20,286 --> 00:05:23,389
AGO MANY RELEASED A DRAFT RSP TO

146
00:05:23,456 --> 00:05:26,793
HELP US DELIVER PAYLOADS TO THE

147
00:05:26,859 --> 00:05:27,193
MOON.

148
00:05:27,193 --> 00:05:29,929
SOME OF YOU ARE CONCERNED, IF I

149
00:05:29,996 --> 00:05:31,764
SHOULD SAY SOME OF YOU ARE

150
00:05:31,831 --> 00:05:33,232
CONCERNED THAT THE FOCUS IN THE

151
00:05:33,299 --> 00:05:36,202
COMING YEARS IS THE MOON, DON'T

152
00:05:36,269 --> 00:05:38,104
BE.
THE PRESIDENT'S VISION

153
00:05:38,171 --> 00:05:42,008
EMPHASISED THAT OUR EXPLORATION

154
00:05:42,075 --> 00:05:44,877
CAMPAIGN WILL ESTABLISH AMERICAN

155
00:05:44,944 --> 00:05:47,413
LEADERSHIP IN THE EXCLAMATION OF

156
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:47,947
MARS.

157
00:05:47,947 --> 00:05:49,382
WE ARE DOING THE MOON AND MARS

158
00:05:49,449 --> 00:05:51,684
IN TANDEM AND THE MISSIONS ARE

159
00:05:51,751 --> 00:05:53,152
SUPPORTIVE OF EACH OTHER.

160
00:05:53,219 --> 00:05:54,787
OUR RETURN TO THE SURFACE OF THE

161
00:05:54,854 --> 00:05:57,890
MOON WILL ALLOW US TO IMPROVE

162
00:05:57,957 --> 00:05:59,492
AND ADVANCE TECHNOLOGIES THAT

163
00:05:59,559 --> 00:06:01,994
WILL FEED FORWARD TO MARS.

164
00:06:02,061 --> 00:06:05,064
PRECISION LANDING SYSTEMS.

165
00:06:05,131 --> 00:06:06,065
ORBITAL HABITATION.

166
00:06:06,132 --> 00:06:08,935
SURFACE HABITATION AND MOBILITY.

167
00:06:09,001 --> 00:06:10,436
LONG DURATION LIFE SUPPORT.

168
00:06:10,503 --> 00:06:11,871

171
00:06:16,442 --> 00:06:18,177
WHILE THESE LUNAR EFFORTS ARE

172
00:06:18,244 --> 00:06:20,113
UNDER WAY, WE ARE PREPARING FOR

173
00:06:20,179 --> 00:06:21,347

MOXY.

179
00:06:32,158 --> 00:06:34,460
IT WILL DEMONSTRATE FOR THE

180
00:06:34,527 --> 00:06:36,629
FIRST TIME OUR ABILITY TO

00:07:02,622 --> 00:07:04,157
MISSIONS TO DEEP SPACE.

192
00:07:04,223 --> 00:07:06,726
THIS IS WHY WE NEED A THRIVING

193
00:07:06,793 --> 00:07:08,694
LEO ECONOMY EXPANDING DEEPER

194
00:07:08,761 --> 00:07:11,197
INTO SPACE, AND WE NEED A

195
00:07:11,264 --> 00:07:14,867
GOVERNMENT BACKBONE TO EXPLORE

196
00:07:14,934 --> 00:07:17,170
WHERE AN ECONOMY DOESN'T YET

197
00:07:17,236 --> 00:07:17,637
ECONOMIST.

198
00:07:17,637 --> 00:07:20,740
WE NEED THE SPACE SYSTEM AND THE

199
00:07:20,807 --> 00:07:22,208
ORION CREW VEHICLE.

200
00:07:22,275 --> 00:07:24,911
WE NEED A THRIVING INDUSTRIAL

201
00:07:24,977 --> 00:07:28,247
BASE, AND A WORLDWIDE COALITION

202
00:07:28,314 --> 00:07:29,749
FOCUSED ON THE GOAL AND

203
00:07:29,816 --> 00:07:32,084
SUSTAINING IT BY INSPIRING THE

204
00:07:32,151 --> 00:07:33,252
NEXT GENERATION.

THE HUMAN TO MARS SUMMIT.

206
00:07:38,591 --> 00:07:41,794
SERVES AS PART OF IT.

207
00:07:41,861 --> 00:07:44,497
I SAW THE MASSIVE IMPACT THAT

208
00:07:44,564 --> 00:07:46,399
THE WORK OF THE SPACE COMMUNITY

209
00:07:46,465 --> 00:07:49,135
HAS, ON INSPIRING CHILDREN AND

210
00:07:49,202 --> 00:07:49,769

00:07:52,939 --> 00:07:53,940
INTERESTED IN SCIENCE DISCOVERY

214
00:07:54,006 --> 00:07:55,775
AND EXPLORATION.

215
00:07:55,842 --> 00:07:57,510
THIS SUMMIT IS CRITICAL.

216
00:07:57,577 --> 00:08:00,179
WE NOT ONLY NEED ALL OF YOU IN

217

219
00:08:04,784 --> 00:08:06,219
GROUPS AND PASSIONS THAT ARE

220
00:08:06,285 --> 00:08:08,788
TIED TO IT.

221
00:08:08,855 --> 00:08:12,758
WE NEED THE NEXT GENERATION.

222
00:08:12,825 --> 00:08:16,796
THOMAS JEFFERSON'S DESIRE TO

223
00:08:16,863 --> 00:08:19,131

224
00:08:19,198 --> 00:08:22,268

228
00:08:29,375 --> 00:08:31,210
MAKING SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERIES.

229
00:08:31,277 --> 00:08:34,247
THIS MOTIVATED THOMAS JEFFERSON

230
00:08:34,313 --> 00:08:36,482
TO LEAD AMERICA TOWARDS SCIENCE,

231
00:08:36,549 --> 00:08:38,017
DISCOVERY AND EXPLORATION

232
00:08:38,084 --> 00:08:40,386
