and to david and to the whole team at

79
00:03:02,229 --> 00:02:59,599
the international space station on the

80
00:03:04,949 --> 00:03:02,239
on the successful docking

81
00:03:06,229 --> 00:03:04,959
of the crew driven dragon spacecraft

82
00:03:08,309 --> 00:03:06,239
this was a

83
00:03:10,630 --> 00:03:08,319
a great week it was inspiring to see the

84
00:03:13,990 --> 00:03:10,640
launch it was actually more inspiring

85
00:03:16,630 --> 00:03:14,000
uh to see the docking and to see you all

86
00:03:17,910 --> 00:03:16,640
open that door uh and and float into

87
00:03:22,070 --> 00:03:17,920
that

88
00:03:23,350 --> 00:03:22,080
we'll we'll very soon have american

89
00:03:24,949 --> 00:03:23,360
astronauts

90
00:03:26,229 --> 00:03:24,959
arriving at the international space

91
00:03:28,710 --> 00:03:26,239
station

92
00:03:30,869 --> 00:03:28,720
in the same vehicle we think

93
00:03:32,309 --> 00:03:30,879
it was a great moment people around the

94
00:03:33,430 --> 00:03:32,319
nation and frankly around the world

95
00:03:34,630 --> 00:03:33,440
watch

96
00:03:36,309 --> 00:03:34,640
with great interest and we just

97
00:03:38,470 --> 00:03:36,319
congratulate you all

98
00:03:41,990 --> 00:03:38,480
uh for your service and for helping to

99
00:03:43,990 --> 00:03:42,000
bring that important moment about

100
00:03:44,710 --> 00:03:44,000
but uh lieutenant colonel mclean i was

101
00:03:48,149 --> 00:03:44,720
just

102
00:03:49,270 --> 00:03:48,159
kind of wonder what was it like for you

103
00:03:51,110 --> 00:03:49,280
to watch

104
00:03:53,030 --> 00:03:51,120
the arrival of the crew dragon tell me

105
00:03:55,990 --> 00:03:53,040
about

106
00:03:57,350 --> 00:03:56,000
that experience and tell me tell me what

107
00:04:01,589 --> 00:03:57,360
it means

108
00:04:03,509 --> 00:04:01,599
program to see

109
00:04:05,429 --> 00:04:03,519
american rockets that can carry american

110
00:04:07,110 --> 00:04:05,439
astronauts back into space once again

111
00:04:11,910 --> 00:04:07,120
taking to the air and to uh to the

112
00:04:15,589 --> 00:04:13,670
mr vice president it's an honor to speak

113
00:04:18,069 --> 00:04:15,599
with you this evening uh and to everyone

114
00:04:20,629 --> 00:04:18,079
else gathered uh they are i can tell you

115
00:04:22,390 --> 00:04:20,639
that uh witnessing the dragon docking up

116
00:04:23,909 --> 00:04:22,400
here on the international space station

117
00:04:26,150 --> 00:04:23,919
i think for uh for both of us for our

118
00:04:27,670 --> 00:04:26,160
whole crew uh was a real honor we feel

119
00:04:28,950 --> 00:04:27,680
very privileged to have been a part of

120
00:04:30,150 --> 00:04:28,960
it

121
00:04:32,150 --> 00:04:30,160
much like

122
00:04:34,469 --> 00:04:32,160
a lot of my experiences in space flight

123
00:04:36,310 --> 00:04:34,479
there's an intersection of the practical

124
00:04:39,110 --> 00:04:36,320
and the magical

125
00:04:40,950 --> 00:04:39,120
and uh and the stocking was no different

126
00:04:42,870 --> 00:04:40,960
you know we had a task to do

127
00:04:44,710 --> 00:04:42,880
we were we were on the on the machines

128
00:04:46,469 --> 00:04:44,720
and we were monitoring you know ranges

129
00:04:48,230 --> 00:04:46,479
and rates and system health

130
00:04:49,990 --> 00:04:48,240
but in the back of our mind you know we

131
00:04:53,110 --> 00:04:50,000
got up that morning and throughout the

132
00:04:55,110 --> 00:04:53,120
day we knew how significant it was

133
00:04:56,550 --> 00:04:55,120
and how important it was

134
00:04:59,189 --> 00:04:56,560
really for the whole history of space

135
00:05:00,469 --> 00:04:59,199
flight it i i said it before it is a new

136
00:05:02,550 --> 00:05:00,479
era and

137
00:05:05,189 --> 00:05:02,560
we knew this cognitively a few years ago

138
00:05:07,590 --> 00:05:05,199
that that we were on the cusp of amazing

139
00:05:10,230 --> 00:05:07,600
feats in space exploration and that

140
00:05:11,830 --> 00:05:10,240
momentum is building and this stocking

141
00:05:13,270 --> 00:05:11,840
was was something i'll never forget and

142
00:05:15,189 --> 00:05:13,280
that i just really feel privileged to

143
00:05:17,189 --> 00:05:15,199
have a front row seat to

144
00:05:23,350 --> 00:05:17,199
i think we are changing the face of

145
00:05:27,590 --> 00:05:25,270
uh did it give you greater confidence

146
00:05:29,590 --> 00:05:27,600
that uh there weren't any pilots uh in

147
00:05:32,070 --> 00:05:29,600
the seats or were there uh

148
00:05:33,189 --> 00:05:32,080
were there some anxious moments uh

149
00:05:33,990 --> 00:05:33,199
that uh

150
00:05:39,110 --> 00:05:34,000
uh

151
00:05:43,510 --> 00:05:39,120
just wonder i wonder how that felt being

152
00:05:48,230 --> 00:05:46,310
well sir being a military pilot and uh

153
00:05:50,469 --> 00:05:48,240
and watching the transition to unmanned

154
00:05:53,189 --> 00:05:50,479
aerial vehicles over the last few years

155
00:05:55,110 --> 00:05:53,199
you know i got to put my pitch in that

156
00:05:57,110 --> 00:05:55,120
every vehicle that flies should have a

157
00:05:58,790 --> 00:05:57,120
pilot in it

158
00:06:00,309 --> 00:05:58,800
that being said i think ripley's doing a

159
00:06:02,150 --> 00:06:00,319
great job in there

160
00:06:04,150 --> 00:06:02,160
obviously she's she's taken a lot of

161
00:06:06,230 --> 00:06:04,160
data that's very important to secure the

162
00:06:07,590 --> 00:06:06,240
safety of our astronauts who hopefully

163
00:06:09,350 --> 00:06:07,600
by

164
00:06:11,670 --> 00:06:09,360
here in a few months we'll we'll get to

165
00:06:14,070 --> 00:06:11,680
ride in this vehicle

166
00:06:15,749 --> 00:06:14,080
as far as you know our experiences with

167
00:06:17,270 --> 00:06:15,759
the docking what was different is you

168
00:06:18,950 --> 00:06:17,280
know normally a vehicle comes close and

169
00:06:20,390 --> 00:06:18,960
we grapple it with robotic arm we bring

170
00:06:22,070 --> 00:06:20,400
it in and so there's a level of safety

171
00:06:23,510 --> 00:06:22,080
there and and this one was a little bit

172
00:06:25,990 --> 00:06:23,520
different um

173
00:06:28,230 --> 00:06:26,000
however uh the teams the training was

174
00:06:29,670 --> 00:06:28,240
was fantastic the safety measures were

175
00:06:31,110 --> 00:06:29,680
redundant and

176
00:06:33,110 --> 00:06:31,120
and we certainly know what actions to

177
00:06:34,870 --> 00:06:33,120
take should anything off nominal happen

178
00:06:40,870 --> 00:06:34,880
but of course it was a beautiful

179
00:06:44,790 --> 00:06:42,390
it really was

180
00:06:46,390 --> 00:06:44,800
a job well done and

181
00:06:48,950 --> 00:06:46,400
i commend you and the whole team at the

182
00:06:50,870 --> 00:06:48,960
international space station

183
00:06:53,110 --> 00:06:50,880
to our canadian partner

184
00:06:54,390 --> 00:06:53,120
david sanjok any any of your reflections

185
00:06:56,150 --> 00:06:54,400
seeing in a

186
00:06:57,909 --> 00:06:56,160
american spacecraft making its way to

187
00:06:59,589 --> 00:06:57,919
the international space station

188
00:07:01,110 --> 00:06:59,599
expanding our capability to take

189
00:07:03,029 --> 00:07:01,120
advantage of

190
00:07:04,550 --> 00:07:03,039
not only that platform

191
00:07:08,070 --> 00:07:04,560
but

192
00:07:12,550 --> 00:07:08,080
to continue to extend human exploration

193
00:07:16,469 --> 00:07:14,469
yes uh thank you for the question mr

194
00:07:18,870 --> 00:07:16,479
vice president it's quite a privilege to

195
00:07:21,749 --> 00:07:18,880
be here for this uh these historic days

196
00:07:24,469 --> 00:07:21,759
uh and uh i must say it is it was moving

197
00:07:26,950 --> 00:07:24,479
to see like the birth of a new a new

198
00:07:28,710 --> 00:07:26,960
tool for exploration uh for the next

199
00:07:31,749 --> 00:07:28,720
generation of space explorers that will

200
00:07:34,309 --> 00:07:31,759
come after us and this is really the

201
00:07:36,309 --> 00:07:34,319
opening of a of a new of a new era as we

202
00:07:38,870 --> 00:07:36,319
like to hear and i think it's true and

203
00:07:40,710 --> 00:07:38,880
it was uh as a you know as a member of

204
00:07:42,309 --> 00:07:40,720
the international partnership that is

205
00:07:44,950 --> 00:07:42,319
following america's lead and this these

206
00:07:47,110 --> 00:07:44,960
new endeavors uh it is uh

207
00:07:49,990 --> 00:07:47,120
it is always kind of um can i say this

208
00:07:53,270 --> 00:07:50,000
it is it's it's moving and kind of

209
00:07:54,869 --> 00:07:53,280
exhilarating to to witness the might and

210
00:07:56,790 --> 00:07:54,879
the the drive

211
00:08:00,390 --> 00:07:56,800
that has always been behind nasa's

212
00:08:02,390 --> 00:08:00,400
determination to explore further and uh

213
00:08:04,230 --> 00:08:02,400
we're very privileged to be part of this

214
00:08:06,070 --> 00:08:04,240
coalition and i am

215
00:08:07,990 --> 00:08:06,080
i'm sure that generations to come will

216
00:08:10,150 --> 00:08:08,000
see a growing and growing international

217
00:08:12,070 --> 00:08:10,160
collaboration because that is the gem of

218
00:08:14,309 --> 00:08:12,080
human spaceflight in my mind is that it

219
00:08:16,710 --> 00:08:14,319
brings all humanity together towards a

220
00:08:18,150 --> 00:08:16,720
common goal and we get to see that what

221
00:08:20,309 --> 00:08:18,160
made the differences between us are

222
00:08:22,230 --> 00:08:20,319
important but not as important as what

223
00:08:28,629 --> 00:08:22,240
drives us to work together towards a

224
00:08:33,430 --> 00:08:30,629
well david thank you for those uh those

225
00:08:36,230 --> 00:08:33,440
wonderful sentiments and uh

226
00:08:38,389 --> 00:08:36,240
and and i i can assure you that uh we

227
00:08:40,949 --> 00:08:38,399
are renewing to use your phrase the

228
00:08:43,430 --> 00:08:40,959
might and drive behind nasa

229
00:08:45,269 --> 00:08:43,440
every day and we're grateful

230
00:08:47,509 --> 00:08:45,279
we're grateful for the partnership that

231
00:08:48,949 --> 00:08:47,519
we enjoy with canada and

232
00:08:50,710 --> 00:08:48,959
so many countries

233
00:08:52,470 --> 00:08:50,720
around the world

234
00:08:54,230 --> 00:08:52,480
and i don't want to lose the connection

235
00:08:55,509 --> 00:08:54,240
that happens to me on my cell phone from

236
00:08:56,550 --> 00:08:55,519
time to time

237
00:08:57,750 --> 00:08:56,560
and i know it's a little more

238
00:09:00,389 --> 00:08:57,760
challenging

239
00:09:02,230 --> 00:09:00,399
at this distance but i know you have an

240
00:09:04,310 --> 00:09:02,240
important spacewalk coming up later this

241
00:09:05,670 --> 00:09:04,320
month i understand that is going to be

242
00:09:06,829 --> 00:09:05,680
the first all

243
00:09:09,910 --> 00:09:06,839
female

244
00:09:14,470 --> 00:09:09,920
eva in history can you talk to us about

245
00:09:19,990 --> 00:09:16,870
yes sir we have a series of three space

246
00:09:23,190 --> 00:09:20,000
walks occurring at the end of march and

247
00:09:25,350 --> 00:09:23,200
out of the four us os crew

248
00:09:27,269 --> 00:09:25,360
the three americans and david

249
00:09:29,030 --> 00:09:27,279
we will each get a chance to step

250
00:09:30,470 --> 00:09:29,040
outside and do some repairs outside the

251
00:09:32,470 --> 00:09:30,480
space station

252
00:09:34,230 --> 00:09:32,480
david and i have been preparing for a

253
00:09:35,670 --> 00:09:34,240
few weeks now and

254
00:09:38,070 --> 00:09:35,680
and getting the suits ready to get the

255
00:09:39,750 --> 00:09:38,080
systems ready studying the procedures

256
00:09:41,910 --> 00:09:39,760
and and getting the team ready as you

257
00:09:43,509 --> 00:09:41,920
know uh the other half of our team will

258
00:09:44,949 --> 00:09:43,519
not arrive until about a week before the

259
00:09:46,949 --> 00:09:44,959
spacewalks

260
00:09:49,910 --> 00:09:46,959
so a lot of technical preparations to

261
00:09:51,590 --> 00:09:49,920
make sure everything is ready uh but the

262
00:09:53,910 --> 00:09:51,600
you know the space station's been up

263
00:09:56,150 --> 00:09:53,920
here for for 20 years and it's time to

264
00:10:03,990 --> 00:09:56,160
do some upgrades on the outside and we

265
00:10:10,790 --> 00:10:06,710
well uh listen i i will let you go uh

266
00:10:12,230 --> 00:10:10,800
congratulations uh again uh to you uh

267
00:10:13,910 --> 00:10:12,240
uh uh

268
00:10:15,350 --> 00:10:13,920
lieutenant colonel mclean we couldn't be

269
00:10:18,150 --> 00:10:15,360
more proud of you

270
00:10:20,150 --> 00:10:18,160
couldn't be more proud of our entire

271
00:10:23,110 --> 00:10:20,160
astronaut corps

272
00:10:24,790 --> 00:10:23,120
and david thank you again for

273
00:10:26,790 --> 00:10:24,800
taking a few moments with us and for

274
00:10:28,310 --> 00:10:26,800
your service to your country and and to

275
00:10:30,069 --> 00:10:28,320
the mission on the international space

276
00:10:32,069 --> 00:10:30,079
station

277
00:10:34,150 --> 00:10:32,079
it it has been an exciting and an

278
00:10:36,230 --> 00:10:34,160
inspiring week uh

279
00:10:38,790 --> 00:10:36,240
uh to see the uh not only the launch of

280
00:10:40,470 --> 00:10:38,800
the crew dragon but uh the uh the

281
00:10:43,509 --> 00:10:40,480
successful docking at the international

282
00:10:46,389 --> 00:10:43,519
space station and uh uh i can assure you

283
00:10:48,230 --> 00:10:46,399
we've got a busy year ahead of us and

284
00:10:49,990 --> 00:10:48,240
it's going to be a year where we

285
00:10:53,030 --> 00:10:50,000
continue to see

286
00:10:55,190 --> 00:10:53,040
evidence of america's renewed commitment

287
00:10:57,750 --> 00:10:55,200
to leadership in space and to advancing

288
00:10:59,670 --> 00:10:57,760
human exploration in space

289
00:11:00,710 --> 00:10:59,680
and and you're a part of that great

290
00:11:03,269 --> 00:11:00,720
tradition

291
00:11:05,190 --> 00:11:03,279
um uh david you're part of a great

292
00:11:08,710 --> 00:11:05,200
international partnership and we just

293
00:11:11,990 --> 00:11:08,720
commend we commend you all uh for uh the

294
00:11:14,710 --> 00:11:12,000
success of this mission and uh

295
00:11:17,590 --> 00:11:14,720
we wish you uh god's blessings

296
00:11:19,829 --> 00:11:17,600
in the days ahead as you as you serve up

297
00:11:21,829 --> 00:11:19,839
in the vast expanse of space on the

298
00:11:25,829 --> 00:11:21,839
international space station thank you so

299
00:11:28,949 --> 00:11:27,350
and thank you mr vice president we

300
00:11:30,550 --> 00:11:28,959
certainly can feel your support and we

301
00:11:32,230 --> 00:11:30,560
know we're in good hands with the

302
00:11:38,710 --> 00:11:32,240
national space council so thank you for

303
00:11:41,269 --> 00:11:39,829
great

304
00:11:43,190 --> 00:11:41,279
thank you both

305
00:11:45,269 --> 00:11:43,200
thank you mr vice president

306
00:11:47,750 --> 00:11:45,279
so as they said

307
00:11:49,829 --> 00:11:47,760
it's a new era in human space flight and

308
00:11:51,350 --> 00:11:49,839
of course the technology

309
00:11:54,710 --> 00:11:51,360
is a piece of it

310
00:11:57,350 --> 00:11:54,720
a bigger piece is really a precedent

311
00:11:59,750 --> 00:11:57,360
that you set about a year ago at the

312
00:12:01,030 --> 00:11:59,760
space symposium when you talked about

313
00:12:03,910 --> 00:12:01,040
nasa

314
00:12:05,350 --> 00:12:03,920
being a tenant and not the landlord in

315
00:12:06,230 --> 00:12:05,360
low earth orbit

316
00:12:08,230 --> 00:12:06,240
so

317
00:12:10,870 --> 00:12:08,240
the new era is not just the technology

318
00:12:13,670 --> 00:12:10,880
the new era is the new concept that nasa

319
00:12:15,670 --> 00:12:13,680
can be one customer of many customers in

320
00:12:17,350 --> 00:12:15,680
low earth orbit where there is a robust

321
00:12:18,949 --> 00:12:17,360
commercial marketplace

322
00:12:21,590 --> 00:12:18,959
and at the same time we can have

323
00:12:23,430 --> 00:12:21,600
numerous providers that are competing on

324
00:12:26,150 --> 00:12:23,440
cost and innovation

325
00:12:28,150 --> 00:12:26,160
driving down cost increasing access to

326
00:12:30,550 --> 00:12:28,160
space and right now we're doing that

327
00:12:32,069 --> 00:12:30,560
with launch but in the coming days

328
00:12:33,430 --> 00:12:32,079
it's not just going to be launched in

329
00:12:35,590 --> 00:12:33,440
the coming days it's going to be the

330
00:12:37,269 --> 00:12:35,600
entire architecture in low earth orbit

331
00:12:40,230 --> 00:12:37,279
the international space station has

332
00:12:43,030 --> 00:12:40,240
proven all of the amazing capabilities

333
00:12:45,509 --> 00:12:43,040
that we can receive from a microgravity

334
00:12:46,389 --> 00:12:45,519
environment and from a space environment

335
00:12:47,990 --> 00:12:46,399
and

336
00:12:50,150 --> 00:12:48,000
when we talk about the future we're

337
00:12:52,230 --> 00:12:50,160
talking about the future where

338
00:12:54,069 --> 00:12:52,240
there could be multiple commercial space

339
00:12:56,069 --> 00:12:54,079
stations in low earth orbit and we're

340
00:12:57,990 --> 00:12:56,079
moving rapidly towards that vision that

341
00:13:00,230 --> 00:12:58,000
you established last year

342
00:13:01,350 --> 00:13:00,240
at the space symposium where we are in

343
00:13:03,430 --> 00:13:01,360
essence

344
00:13:06,710 --> 00:13:03,440
a tenant and not the landlord driving

345
00:13:08,870 --> 00:13:06,720
down cost increasing access then using

346
00:13:11,430 --> 00:13:08,880
the money that you have so graciously

347
00:13:13,430 --> 00:13:11,440
give us given us in the budget request

348
00:13:15,350 --> 00:13:13,440
you and the president

349
00:13:16,629 --> 00:13:15,360
increasing our budget so that we can go

350
00:13:21,350 --> 00:13:16,639
to the moon

351
00:13:23,670 --> 00:13:21,360
time go sustainably so this uh i think

352
00:13:26,069 --> 00:13:23,680
david said it just right and of course

353
00:13:28,310 --> 00:13:26,079
said it as well this is a new era in

354
00:13:29,910 --> 00:13:28,320
human space flight and your vision and

355
00:13:31,910 --> 00:13:29,920
leadership the vision leadership of the

356
00:13:34,550 --> 00:13:31,920
