PREPARE FOR THE SPACEX CRS 12

24
00:01:03,062 --> 00:01:03,532
MISSION.

25
00:01:03,530 --> 00:01:06,600
WE HAVE LOADED THE DRAGON WITH

26
00:01:06,599 --> 00:01:10,069
6400 POUNDS OF CARGO, AND THAT

27
00:01:10,069 --> 00:01:11,439
IS HEADED TO OUR RESEARCH

28
00:01:11,438 --> 00:01:13,508
COMMUNITY AND OUR CONTINUED

29
00:01:13,506 --> 00:01:14,906
EXPANSION OF THE RESEARCH ON

30
00:01:14,908 --> 00:01:16,108
BOARD OF THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE

31
00:01:16,109 --> 00:01:16,609
STATION.

32
00:01:16,609 --> 00:01:18,709
SO WITH THE INTERNAL AND

33
00:01:18,711 --> 00:01:20,311
EXTERNAL PAYLOADS WE HAVE GOING

34
00:01:20,313 --> 00:01:22,113
UP, IT SETS OFF A NEW BAR FOR

35
00:01:22,115 --> 00:01:23,785
THE AMOUNT OF RESEARCH THAT

36
00:01:23,783 --> 00:01:26,153
WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO GET ONTO THE

37
00:01:26,152 --> 00:01:27,822
FLIGHT.

38
00:01:27,821 --> 00:01:29,351
PRIMARILY DRIVEN BECAUSE OF THE

39
00:01:29,355 --> 00:01:30,925
CONSUMER LEVELS ARE IN GOOD

40
00:01:30,924 --> 00:01:34,124
SHAPE.

41
00:01:34,127 --> 00:01:36,697
AND SO YOU KNOW, WHEN WE CAN, WE

42
00:01:36,696 --> 00:01:38,966
TRY TO DEDICATE AS MUCH AS WE

43
00:01:38,965 --> 00:01:41,535
CAN TO THE RESEARCH COMMUNITY,

44
00:01:41,534 --> 00:01:43,234
AND WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO PULL THAT

45
00:01:43,236 --> 00:01:46,106
OFF IN THIS MISSION.

46
00:01:46,105 --> 00:01:47,845
WE'VE BEEN PREPARING ALL OF THE

47
00:01:47,841 --> 00:01:50,311
RESEARCH AND THE LATE LOAD

48
00:01:50,310 --> 00:01:51,410
CATEGORIES FOR THE INTERNATIONAL

49
00:01:51,411 --> 00:01:51,941
SPACE STATION.

50
00:01:51,945 --> 00:01:53,845
I THINK WE'RE JUST ABOUT GETTING

51
00:01:53,847 --> 00:01:55,917
READY TO LOAD ALL OF OUR

52
00:01:55,915 --> 00:01:58,485
LATE-LOAD CARGO INTO DRAGON OUT

53
00:01:58,485 --> 00:01:59,115
TO PAD.

54
00:01:59,118 --> 00:02:00,858
THAT CAPABILITY IS JUST NOW

55
00:02:00,854 --> 00:02:02,454
STARTING, OR THAT TASK IS JUST

56
00:02:02,455 --> 00:02:03,085
NOW STARTING.

57
00:02:03,089 --> 00:02:05,389
THAT WILL ALL BE IN SUPPORT OF

58
00:02:05,391 --> 00:02:06,731
OVER 300 INVESTIGATIONS WE PLAN

59
00:02:06,726 --> 00:02:08,296
TO CONDUCT ON THE INTERNATIONAL

60
00:02:08,294 --> 00:02:10,034
SPACE STATION OVER THE NEXT SIX

61
00:02:10,029 --> 00:02:11,299
MONTHS.

62
00:02:11,297 --> 00:02:13,597
85 OF THOSE BRAND, SO VERY, VERY

63
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,300
EXCITING TIMES FOR OUR RESEARCH

64
00:02:15,301 --> 00:02:15,871
COMMUNITY.

65
00:02:15,869 --> 00:02:18,469
YOU KNOW, WITH THE EXTENSION OF

66
00:02:18,471 --> 00:02:20,571
PEGGY THAT GAVE US AN EXTRA CREW

67
00:02:20,573 --> 00:02:24,773
OF FOUR CREW MEMBERS ON THE US

68
00:02:24,777 --> 00:02:25,547
SIDE.

69
00:02:25,545 --> 00:02:27,515
AND THE CREW TIME HAS NOT BEEN A

70
00:02:27,514 --> 00:02:29,914
LIMITER IN THE AMOUNT OF

71
00:02:29,916 --> 00:02:31,586
RESEARCH WE CAN GET ON THE SPACE

72
00:02:31,584 --> 00:02:32,114
STATION.

73
00:02:32,118 --> 00:02:33,918
AS WE LOOKED A THE CREW SIDE

74
00:02:33,920 --> 00:02:36,690
WE'RE HOPING THAT CREW TIME

75
00:02:36,689 --> 00:02:38,089
CONSTRAINT THAT WE'VE ALWAYS

76
00:02:38,091 --> 00:02:39,421
BEEN LIVING WITH FOR THE PAST

77
00:02:39,425 --> 00:02:42,165
COUPLE OF YEARS OR SO, WILLEN

78
00:02:42,161 --> 00:02:43,901
MINIMIZED OR COMPLETELY

79
00:02:43,897 --> 00:02:44,527
ELIMINATED.

80
00:02:44,531 --> 00:02:45,731
WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT.

81
00:02:45,732 --> 00:02:47,302
ONE THING WITH THE LAUNCH

82
00:02:47,300 --> 00:02:48,770
TOMORROW, THIS IS GOING TO BE

83
00:02:48,768 --> 00:02:49,438
ONE ATTEMPT.

84
00:02:49,435 --> 00:02:53,105
WE COULD NOT--WE HAVE SOME OTHER

85
00:02:53,106 --> 00:02:56,146
ACTIVITIES GOING ON THE SPACE

86
00:02:56,142 --> 00:02:56,712
STATION.

87
00:02:56,709 --> 00:02:57,909
THE RUSSIANS HAVE AN EVA ON THE

88
00:02:57,911 --> 00:02:58,641
17TH.

89
00:02:58,645 --> 00:03:00,285
IF WE DON'T GET OFF TOMORROW AND

90
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,620
THEN LAUNCHED ON TUESDAY, OUR

91
00:03:02,615 --> 00:03:03,885
BERTHING DAY WITH BE THE SAME

92
00:03:03,883 --> 00:03:06,383
DAY AS THEIR EVA.

93
00:03:06,386 --> 00:03:08,626
AND SO WE WORKED IT OUT WITH THE

94
00:03:08,621 --> 00:03:10,021
RUSSIANS THAT WE'RE GOING TO

95
00:03:10,023 --> 00:03:11,663
DECONFLICT THAT.

96
00:03:11,658 --> 00:03:14,598
WE WOULD HOP OVER THAT NEXT--THE

97
00:03:14,594 --> 00:03:15,764
TUESDAY LAUNCH OPPORTUNITY.

98
00:03:15,762 --> 00:03:18,332
THEN THERE IS SOME ACTIVITY HERE

99
00:03:18,331 --> 00:03:21,231
WITH THE TEDRIS LAUNCH.

100
00:03:21,234 --> 00:03:22,774
AND THAT NEXT OPPORTUNITY WILL

101
00:03:22,769 --> 00:03:26,339
BE AROUND THE 19TH, 20TH TIME

102
00:03:26,339 --> 00:03:26,739
PERIOD.

103
00:03:26,739 --> 00:03:28,639
WE'LL HAVE TO WORK THAT OUT WITH

104
00:03:28,641 --> 00:03:30,181
ALL OF THE PARTIES INVOLVED.

105
00:03:30,176 --> 00:03:31,546
THAT'S KIND OF WHAT IT'S LOOKING

106
00:03:31,544 --> 00:03:32,644
LIKE RIGHT NOW.

107
00:03:32,645 --> 00:03:34,315
AND SO WE'LL HAVE MUCH MORE TO

108
00:03:34,314 --> 00:03:36,584
SAY ON THAT.

109
00:03:36,583 --> 00:03:39,123
HOPEFULLY WE'LL FIND THAT THE

110
00:03:39,118 --> 00:03:40,788
WEATHER COOPERATES TOMORROW, AND

111
00:03:40,787 --> 00:03:42,527
WE'LL GET OFF THE GROUND AND BE

112
00:03:42,522 --> 00:03:44,522
ON OUR WAY WITH NO CONFLICT.

113
00:03:44,524 --> 00:03:45,594
THAT'S PLAN ONE.

114
00:03:45,592 --> 00:03:48,532
OUR CREW IS TRAINED AND READY TO

115
00:03:48,528 --> 00:03:49,428
GO ON BOARD.

116
00:03:49,429 --> 00:03:52,729
JACK FISCHER PRIME ON THE ISS

117
00:03:52,732 --> 00:03:53,802
ARM CAPTURE.

118
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:55,300
THAT WILL OCCUR ON WEDNESDAY

119
00:03:55,301 --> 00:03:57,271
MORNING BRIGHT AND EARLY.

120
00:03:57,270 --> 00:04:01,440
AND THEN AS TYPICAL, WE MOVE

121
00:04:01,441 --> 00:04:03,241
THAT LATER.

122
00:04:03,242 --> 00:04:06,412
OUR PLANNED PATCH OPENING WILL

123
00:04:06,412 --> 00:04:08,052
OCCUR THE VERY NEXT DAY.

124
00:04:08,047 --> 00:04:09,987
ALTHOUGH I THINK THE CREW IS

125
00:04:09,983 --> 00:04:11,923
AWARE THAT THERE ARE FROZEN

126
00:04:11,918 --> 00:04:13,118
TREATS ON THIS PARTICULAR

127
00:04:13,119 --> 00:04:13,549
MISSION.

128
00:04:13,553 --> 00:04:15,053
I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED IF THEY

129
00:04:15,054 --> 00:04:17,054
WORK LONG IN THE DAY AND TRY TO

130
00:04:17,056 --> 00:04:22,826
ENJOY SOME WELL-DESERVED FROZEN

131
00:04:22,829 --> 00:04:24,199
ICE CREAM FOOD, FROZEN BARS THAT

132
00:04:24,197 --> 00:04:25,797
WE HAVE ON THE MISSION FOR THEM.

133
00:04:25,798 --> 00:04:28,298
WE'LL SEE HOW THAT PLAYS OUT.

134
00:04:28,301 --> 00:04:31,671
BUT WITH THAT CREW I CAN IMAGINE

135
00:04:31,671 --> 00:04:33,841
THEY WILL BE READY TO DO THAT.

136
00:04:33,840 --> 00:04:36,180
THE CREAM PAYLOAD IS IN THE

137
00:04:36,175 --> 00:04:37,245
TRUNK AND READY TO GO.

138
00:04:37,243 --> 00:04:38,583
IN THE FIRST COUPLE OF WEEKS OF

139
00:04:38,578 --> 00:04:39,878
THE MISSION WE'LL PULL THAT OUT

140
00:04:39,879 --> 00:04:41,119
WITH THE BIG ARM.

141
00:04:41,114 --> 00:04:45,054
THEN WE HAND THAT OFF TO THE

142
00:04:45,051 --> 00:04:48,621
JAPANESE SYSTEM, THE GEM ARM,

143
00:04:48,621 --> 00:04:51,291
AND THEN THEY'LL INSTALL THAT ON

144
00:04:51,290 --> 00:04:52,530
THE FACILITY.

145
00:04:52,525 --> 00:04:53,995
THAT'S WHERE CREAM WILL LIVE FOR

146
00:04:53,993 --> 00:04:55,433
THE NEXT SEVERAL YEARS AND

147
00:04:55,428 --> 00:04:57,968
CONDUCT THE RESEARCH IT PLANS TO

148
00:04:57,964 --> 00:04:58,534
DO.

149
00:04:58,531 --> 00:04:59,601
MISSION DURATION IS A LITTLE BIT

150
00:04:59,599 --> 00:05:01,299
OVER 30 DAYS, AND PRETTY MUCH

151
00:05:01,300 --> 00:05:04,070
NOWADAYS WE'VE LED THE RESEARCH

152
00:05:04,070 --> 00:05:06,310
SIDE DRIVE OUR MISSION DURATION.

153
00:05:06,305 --> 00:05:07,975
WE NEED MORE CONSTRAINTS WITH

154
00:05:07,974 --> 00:05:10,614
THE DRAGON, AND THIS WILL BE A

155
00:05:10,610 --> 00:05:12,410
LITTLE OVER A 30-DAY MISSION TO

156
00:05:12,412 --> 00:05:13,812
GET ALL THE RESEARCH DONE AND

157
00:05:13,813 --> 00:05:14,883
RETURNED HOME.

158
00:05:14,881 --> 00:05:18,551
OUR RETURN CARGO IS ALSO ALMOST

159
00:05:18,551 --> 00:05:19,521
EXTENSIVELY RESEARCH.

160
00:05:19,519 --> 00:05:20,919
SO WE'RE VERY, VERY PROUD OF

161
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:21,490
THAT.

162
00:05:21,487 --> 00:05:24,687
WE'VE WORKED IT OUT WITH SPACEX,

163
00:05:24,691 --> 00:05:26,761
WHEN DRAG SPLASHES DOWN, WE'LL

164
00:05:26,759 --> 00:05:28,559
GET THE DRAGON BACK TO THE PORT,

165
00:05:28,561 --> 00:05:30,201
AND WE'RE TURNING OVER SOME

166
00:05:30,196 --> 00:05:31,936
PORTION OF OUR EARLY-RETURN

167
00:05:31,931 --> 00:05:33,231
CARGO TO THE RESEARCH COMMUNITY

168
00:05:33,232 --> 00:05:34,532
RIGHT THERE AT PORT SO THEY CAN

169
00:05:34,534 --> 00:05:37,104
TAKE IT AND START THEIR

170
00:05:37,103 --> 00:05:37,833
IMMEDIATE ANALYSIS OF THE

171
00:05:37,837 --> 00:05:40,677
RESULTS THAT THEY HAVE FOUND.

172
00:05:40,673 --> 00:05:42,473
SO OVER ALL WE'RE LOOKING

173
00:05:42,475 --> 00:05:45,675
FORWARD TO A GREAT MISSION,

174
00:05:45,678 --> 00:05:47,918
AGAIN, WITH A QUICK HAND OVER TO

175
00:05:47,914 --> 00:05:49,244
THE RESEARCH COMMUNITY.

176
00:05:49,248 --> 00:05:52,488
WE'RE WORKING ON ONE ISSUE ON

177
00:05:52,485 --> 00:05:53,725
BOARD THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE

178
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:54,390
STATION.

179
00:05:54,387 --> 00:05:55,827
IT DOES NOT IMPACT THE FLIGHT,

180
00:05:55,822 --> 00:05:58,292
BUT IT WILL HELP US TURN UP OUR

181
00:05:58,291 --> 00:05:58,861
GAME.

182
00:05:58,858 --> 00:06:02,898
WE HAVE ANTENNAS, AND WE HAVE AN

183
00:06:02,895 --> 00:06:05,795
RPC, THE POWER--THE ANTENNA AND

184
00:06:05,798 --> 00:06:07,468
EQUIPMENT ITSELF ARE JUST FINE.

185
00:06:07,467 --> 00:06:09,267
WE HAVE A POWER CONTROL MODULE

186
00:06:09,268 --> 00:06:14,908
THAT HAS BEEN FINICKY OVER THE

187
00:06:14,907 --> 00:06:16,507
PAST COUPLE OF WEEKS.

188
00:06:16,509 --> 00:06:18,949
IT WILL STAY OPEN AFTER WE TRY

189
00:06:18,945 --> 00:06:20,345
TO CLOSE IT SEVERAL TIMES.

190
00:06:20,346 --> 00:06:22,146
IT WILL STAY CLOSED FOR FOUR OR

191
00:06:22,148 --> 00:06:24,018
FIVE DAYS AND THEN IT POPPED

192
00:06:24,016 --> 00:06:24,916
OPEN LAST NIGHT.

193
00:06:24,917 --> 00:06:27,917
WE DO LIKE TO HAVE TWO STREAMS

194
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:28,650
GOING INTO THE MISSION.

195
00:06:28,654 --> 00:06:31,824
WE HAVE THAT WITH THE KU BAND

196
00:06:31,824 --> 00:06:33,194
CAPABILITY AS WELL.

197
00:06:33,192 --> 00:06:35,262
SO FROM A REDUNDANCY ASPECT

198
00:06:35,261 --> 00:06:36,501
WE'RE JUST FINE FOR THIS

199
00:06:36,496 --> 00:06:37,726
MISSION, BUT IT IS SOMETHING

200
00:06:37,730 --> 00:06:43,270
THAT WE'LL LIKELY GET THE FPDM

201
00:06:43,269 --> 00:06:47,309
OUT AND GET THE LOCATION ON THE

202
00:06:47,306 --> 00:06:48,676
TRUSS, SWAP THAT POWER MODULE

203
00:06:48,674 --> 00:06:50,314
OUT AND BE ON OUR WAY.

204
00:06:50,309 --> 00:06:52,179
WE PLAN TO DO THAT ROBOTICALLY,

205
00:06:52,178 --> 00:06:54,548
AND WE'LL HAVE TO FIGURE OUT A

206
00:06:54,547 --> 00:06:55,817
TIME TO GO DO THAT.

207
00:06:55,815 --> 00:06:58,155
LOOKING AHEAD AS FAR AS OTHER

208
00:06:58,151 --> 00:07:03,661
MAJOR ACTIVITIES, THE RUSSIANS

209
00:07:03,656 --> 00:07:06,156
PLAN TO RETRIEVE SOME RESEARCH

210
00:07:06,159 --> 00:07:07,959
ON THEIR SEGMENT AS WELL AS

211
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,230
DEPLOYING FIVE SATELLITES WHILE

212
00:07:10,229 --> 00:07:12,369
THEY'RE OUT ON EVA.

213
00:07:12,365 --> 00:07:14,705
THEY'LL BE ABLE TO STUDY THOSE

214
00:07:14,700 --> 00:07:16,770
ADRIFT OVER BOARD, AND AS PART

215
00:07:16,769 --> 00:07:18,539
OF THEIR EXPERIMENT, AND LIKE I

216
00:07:18,538 --> 00:07:19,908
SAID THEY'RE GOING TO BE

217
00:07:19,906 --> 00:07:21,006
BRINGING IN OTHER RESEARCH FROM

218
00:07:21,007 --> 00:07:22,337
THE MISSION.

219
00:07:22,341 --> 00:07:25,141
PEGGY AND JACK, THE RETURN IS

220
00:07:25,144 --> 00:07:27,344
STILL PLANNED FOR SEPTEMBER 2ND.

221
00:07:27,346 --> 00:07:30,216
WE LOOK FORWARD TO GETTING THEM

222
00:07:30,216 --> 00:07:30,816
BACK.

223
00:07:30,817 --> 00:07:32,417
THE 52 S LAUNCH WITH MARK, JOE,

224
00:07:32,418 --> 00:07:33,418
AND ALEXANDER.

225
00:07:33,419 --> 00:07:35,219
EVERYTHING IS PROGRESSING WELL

226
00:07:35,221 --> 00:07:36,191
FOR THAT LAUNCH.

227
00:07:36,189 --> 00:07:37,989
AGAIN, WE'LL DIP DOWN TO A CREW

228
00:07:37,990 --> 00:07:39,630
OF THREE FOR A WHILE AND THEN

229
00:07:39,625 --> 00:07:45,795
RIGHT BACK UP TO FOUR U.S. CREW

230
00:07:45,798 --> 00:07:46,498
MEMBERS.

231
00:07:46,499 --> 00:07:48,169
SO AGAIN, THAT WILL REALLY HELP

232
00:07:48,167 --> 00:07:50,407
US OUT FROM THE RESEARCH GOING

233
00:07:50,403 --> 00:07:51,073
FORWARD.

234
00:07:51,070 --> 00:07:53,210
HAVING A CREW MEMBER WITH A FULL

235
00:07:53,206 --> 00:07:55,106
CREW ON BOARD THE INTERNATIONAL

236
00:07:55,107 --> 00:07:56,477
SPACE STATION.

237
00:07:56,475 --> 00:07:58,245
AND THEN WE HAVE PROGRESS LAUNCH

238
00:07:58,244 --> 00:08:00,344
ON OCTOBER 12TH.

239
00:08:00,346 --> 00:08:03,016
THE ORBITAL MISSION OF THE

240
00:08:03,015 --> 00:08:06,285
FLIGHT THAT WILL OCCUR ON

241
00:08:06,285 --> 00:08:07,455
NOVEMBER 10TH WE'RE PREPARING

242
00:08:07,453 --> 00:08:09,993
THE CARGO FOR THAT MISSION NOW.

243
00:08:09,989 --> 00:08:12,029
AND THE OTHER THING RECENTLY WE

244
00:08:12,024 --> 00:08:15,124
DECIDED TO PERFORM A TRIPLE EVA,

245
00:08:15,127 --> 00:08:17,497
AND SO THAT WILL OCCUR PROBABLY

246
00:08:17,496 --> 00:08:20,196
IN THE LATE OCTOBER, EARLY

247
00:08:20,199 --> 00:08:20,769
NOVEMBER.

248
00:08:20,766 --> 00:08:23,506
THE CONTENT OF THOSE EVAs ARE

249
00:08:23,502 --> 00:08:25,142
STILL BEING FINALIZED, BUT THE

250
00:08:25,137 --> 00:08:26,607
MAIN THING WE PLAN TO DO IS

251
00:08:26,606 --> 00:08:32,446
CHANGE OUT ON THE LATCHING END,

252
00:08:32,445 --> 00:08:35,015
WHICH IS WHERE IT'S THE BASINED.

253
00:08:35,014 --> 00:08:38,784
WE'LL SWAP IN ONE OF THOSE WITH

254
00:08:38,784 --> 00:08:43,294
ONE THAT IS SITTING OUT.

255
00:08:43,289 --> 00:08:46,689
SO WE PLAN TO SWAP THOSE TWO

256
00:08:46,692 --> 00:08:47,792
LATCHING DEFECTORS OUT.

257
00:08:47,793 --> 00:08:50,933
AND THEN BE BACK INTO A HEALTHY

258
00:08:50,930 --> 00:08:51,730
CONDITION.

259
00:08:51,731 --> 00:08:53,201
WHAT WE'RE SEE SOMETHING A

260
00:08:53,199 --> 00:08:55,069
LITTLE REFRAIN ON THE SNARE

261
00:08:55,067 --> 00:08:56,807
WIRES ASSOCIATED WITH THE

262
00:08:56,802 --> 00:08:59,342
LAUNCHING END DEFECTOR WHEN IT

263
00:08:59,338 --> 00:09:01,078
GRAPPLES OVER THE GRAPPLE PEN.

264
00:09:01,073 --> 00:09:02,573
WE HAVE PLENTY OF MARGIN AND

265
00:09:02,575 --> 00:09:03,915
PLENTY OF CAPABILITY LEFT.

266
00:09:03,910 --> 00:09:05,750
WE JUST WANT TO GET OUT AHEAD OF

267
00:09:05,745 --> 00:09:08,415
IT IN CASE WE SEE SOME INCREASED

268
00:09:08,414 --> 00:09:10,414
WEAR ON IT.

269
00:09:10,416 --> 00:09:11,486
AGAIN, IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE

270
00:09:11,484 --> 00:09:12,584
WANT TO TACKLE.

271
00:09:12,585 --> 00:09:15,685
AGAIN, WE HAVE THE CREW TIME AND

272
00:09:15,688 --> 00:09:18,828
THAT TIME PERIOD CREW WILL ALSO

273
00:09:18,824 --> 00:09:21,594
BE CHANGED WITH LIGHTS AND

274
00:09:21,594 --> 00:09:22,864
CAMERAS ON BOARD THE

275
00:09:22,862 --> 00:09:24,532
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION IN

276
00:09:24,530 --> 00:09:26,000
PREP FOR THE COMMERCIAL CREW

277
00:09:25,998 --> 00:09:27,438
VEHICLES THAT WILL BE ARRIVING.

278
00:09:27,433 --> 00:09:29,633
WE WANT TO GET THOSE IN GOOD

279
00:09:29,635 --> 00:09:30,535
SHAPE AS WELL.

280
00:09:30,536 --> 00:09:32,606
WE'LL BE CONDUCTING THOSE IN THE

281
00:09:32,605 --> 00:09:34,545
LATE OCTOBER TIME PERIOD.

282
00:09:34,540 --> 00:09:36,780
OTHER THAN THAT, THE ISS IS

283
00:09:36,776 --> 00:09:38,846
READY FOR THE CRS 12 MISSION.

284
00:09:38,844 --> 00:09:40,344
I THINK WE'LL KEEP OUR EYES ON

285
00:09:40,346 --> 00:09:41,786
THE WEATHER, NOT ONLY FOR

286
00:09:41,781 --> 00:09:43,821
TOMORROW BUT FOR THE LATE LOADS

287
00:09:43,816 --> 00:09:46,156
AND PAD ACTIVITIES AS SPACEX HAS

288
00:09:46,152 --> 00:09:47,622
TO DO TODAY.

289
00:09:47,620 --> 00:09:50,090
WE'RE READY TO RECEIVE DRAGON

290
00:09:50,089 --> 00:09:52,729
AND I'LL TURN IT OVER TO HANS

291
00:09:52,725 --> 00:09:54,765
FOR THE SPACEX STATUS ON THE

292
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:55,490
VEHICLE.

293
00:09:55,494 --> 00:09:56,194
>> THANK YOU, DAN.

294
00:09:56,195 --> 00:09:58,965
SO SPACEX IS READY TO GO, TOO.

295
00:09:58,965 --> 00:10:06,375
WE HAD A VERY GOOD TRY ON

296
00:10:06,372 --> 00:10:08,012
THURSDAY, AND ALL THE DATA WAS

297
00:10:08,007 --> 00:10:08,507
GOOD.

298
00:10:08,507 --> 00:10:09,907
SO WE'RE PROCEEDING AT THIS

299
00:10:09,909 --> 00:10:11,179
POINT IN TIME.

300
00:10:11,177 --> 00:10:16,187
WE'RE TARGETING A LAUNCH AT

301
00:10:16,182 --> 00:10:18,282
12:31 AND 37 SECONDS, THAT MIGHT

302
00:10:18,284 --> 00:10:19,784
SHIFT A COUPLE OF SECONDS, IN

303
00:10:19,785 --> 00:10:21,655
CASE YOU ASK.

304
00:10:21,654 --> 00:10:25,794
AND THEN WE'RE GOOD TO GO ON THE

305
00:10:25,791 --> 00:10:29,361
12TH CARGO MISSION FROM THIS

306
00:10:29,362 --> 00:10:32,032
LAUNCH SITE TO THE ISS.

307
00:10:32,031 --> 00:10:35,501
SO FIRST STAGE WILL TURN TO THE

308
00:10:35,501 --> 00:10:37,871
LANDING ZONE.

309
00:10:37,870 --> 00:10:40,640
LIKE THE LAST CS LAUNCH, IT'S

310
00:10:40,639 --> 00:10:42,739
SIMILAR.

311
00:10:42,742 --> 00:10:46,042
AND I HAVE SOME INTERESTING

312
00:10:46,045 --> 00:10:47,245
STATISTICS ON OUR LAUNCHES

313
00:10:47,246 --> 00:10:48,416
THERE.

314
00:10:48,414 --> 00:10:52,554
SO FAR WE HAVE ACTUALLY COMPETED

315
00:10:52,551 --> 00:10:54,221
37 MISSIONS SUCCESSFULLY OVER

316
00:10:54,220 --> 00:10:59,490
ALL, AND WE LANDED 13

317
00:10:59,492 --> 00:11:01,392
FIRST-STAGE BOOSTERS AT THIS

318
00:11:01,394 --> 00:11:01,864
TIME.

319
00:11:01,861 --> 00:11:04,731
EIGHT AT SEA, AND FIVE AT THE

320
00:11:04,730 --> 00:11:09,970
LANDING ZONE HERE IN

321
00:11:09,969 --> 00:11:10,799
CAPE CANAVERAL.

322
00:11:10,803 --> 00:11:11,573
WE HAVE A LOT OF SUCCESSFUL

323
00:11:11,570 --> 00:11:16,610
LANDINGS IN THE MEANTIME.

324
00:11:16,609 --> 00:11:23,119
WE STILL WILL ATTEMPT MANEUVER,

325
00:11:23,115 --> 00:11:26,885
MANEUVER--AUDACIOUS IS THE RIGHT

326
00:11:26,886 --> 00:11:27,886
WORD, MAYBE.

327
00:11:27,887 --> 00:11:32,827
YOU KNOW HOW LOOKS FOR THOSE

328
00:11:32,825 --> 00:11:33,895
FIRST-STAGE LANDINGS.

329
00:11:33,893 --> 00:11:35,323
THERE ARE A NUMBER OF FIRST

330
00:11:35,327 --> 00:11:37,097
STAGES THAT WE'RE REUSING MORE

331
00:11:37,096 --> 00:11:45,576
AND MORE.

332
00:11:45,571 --> 00:11:48,011
THE TRAJECTORY ON EVERYTHING IS

333
00:11:48,007 --> 00:11:51,647
VERY SIMILAR.

334
00:11:51,644 --> 00:11:53,584
I DON'T THINK YOU'LL SEE

335
00:11:53,579 --> 00:11:55,249
ANYTHING DIFFERENT.

336
00:11:55,247 --> 00:11:57,847
ONE DEPLOY DRAGON, IT WILL BE

337
00:11:57,850 --> 00:11:59,320
PHASING WITH THE INTERNATIONAL

338
00:11:59,318 --> 00:12:04,688
SPACE STATION, AND THE GRAPPLING

339
00:12:04,690 --> 00:12:08,490
IS GOING TO HAPPEN ON MONDAY

340
00:12:08,494 --> 00:12:10,764
MORNING IN THE EARLY MORNING

341
00:12:10,763 --> 00:12:11,763
HOURS HERE.

342
00:12:11,764 --> 00:12:14,604
AND EVEN EARLIER THAN THE

343
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:31,950
PACIFIC TIME.

344
00:12:31,951 --> 00:12:33,691
LAUNCHING ON MONDAY MORNING AND

345
00:12:33,686 --> 00:12:36,226
MONDAY AFTERNOON AND THEN

346
00:12:36,222 --> 00:12:41,092
WEDNESDAY MORNING.

347
00:12:41,093 --> 00:12:42,833
AND THEN DRAGON IS GOING TO BE

348
00:12:42,828 --> 00:12:45,168
THERE FOR ROUGHLY A MONTH.

349
00:12:45,164 --> 00:12:46,804
THAT'S THE TIME FRAME THAT CAN

350
00:12:46,799 --> 00:12:49,439
SHIFT AROUND A LITTLE BIT, AND

351
00:12:49,435 --> 00:12:54,275
IT WILL RETURN TO THE PACIFIC.

352
00:12:54,273 --> 00:12:56,413
WHILE THERE WE'LL GRAB IT AND

353
00:12:56,408 --> 00:12:59,148
BRING IT HOME TO THE BOARD.

354
00:12:59,145 --> 00:13:00,445
THAT'S FUNNY BECAUSE THAT WILL

355
00:13:00,446 --> 00:13:03,286
BE A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN A MILE

356
00:13:03,282 --> 00:13:04,882
AWAY FROM MY HOUSE WHEN THE

357
00:13:04,884 --> 00:13:05,984
UNLOADING HAPPENS.

358
00:13:05,985 --> 00:13:10,995
I CAN ALMOST SEE IT.

359
00:13:10,990 --> 00:13:13,490
AND THAT WILL BE HOPEFULLY

360
00:13:13,492 --> 00:13:14,362
ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL MISSION.

361
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,360
I WOULD LIKE TO THANK A COUPLE

362
00:13:16,362 --> 00:13:20,302
OF TEAMS AND FOLKS HERE AND

363
00:13:20,299 --> 00:13:22,569
PARTICULARLY THE SPACEX DRAGON

364
00:13:22,568 --> 00:13:25,538
TEAM AND SPACEX FALCON LINE

365
00:13:25,538 --> 00:13:26,168
TEAM.

366
00:13:26,172 --> 00:13:28,472
THEY'VE GOTTEN THE DRAGON READY

367
00:13:28,474 --> 00:13:30,144
AND THE LAUNCH PAD READY.

368
00:13:30,142 --> 00:13:31,482
THAT'S ALWAYS AWESOME WHEN IT

369
00:13:31,477 --> 00:13:32,477
COMES TOGETHER.

370
00:13:32,478 --> 00:13:34,178
AND THE DAYS BEFORE LAUNCH.

371
00:13:34,180 --> 00:13:38,480
THEN I WANT TO THANK THE

372
00:13:38,484 --> 00:13:40,984
45TH SPACE FOR THEIR SUPPORT.

373
00:13:40,986 --> 00:13:44,086
AND ESPECIALLY THE SUPPORT ON

374
00:13:44,089 --> 00:13:45,159
THE MONDAY LAUNCH.

375
00:13:45,157 --> 00:13:46,597
AND WORKING IN THE LAST COUPLE

376
00:13:46,592 --> 00:13:47,192
OF DAYS, TOO.

377

392
00:14:11,984 --> 00:14:13,384
IMPORTANT SCIENCE THAT THE

393
00:14:13,385 --> 00:14:15,185
DRAGON IS BRINGING TO THE ISS AS

394
00:14:15,187 --> 00:14:16,657
WELL AS THE WORK WE'RE DOING ON

395
00:14:16,655 --> 00:14:17,795
THE ISS.

396
00:14:17,790 --> 00:14:20,490
THE SPACEX, THE DRAGON BRINGS US

397
00:14:20,492 --> 00:14:23,092
A VARIETY OF PAYLOADS BOTH IN

398
00:14:23,095 --> 00:14:25,865
PRESSURIZED MODULE AND

399
00:14:25,864 --> 00:14:29,974
UNPRESSURIZED, AS WELL AS ALMOST

400
00:14:29,969 --> 00:14:34,569
AS IMPORTANTLY, BRINGING THE

401
00:14:34,573 --> 00:14:35,843
SCIENCE PROJECTS HOME.

402
00:14:35,841 --> 00:14:37,211
WE HAVE 800 POUNDS OF RESEARCH

403
00:14:37,209 --> 00:14:39,509
HARDWARE GOING UP.

404
00:14:39,511 --> 00:14:43,311
THAT DOES INCLUDE THE EXTERNAL

405
00:14:43,315 --> 00:14:44,045
PAYLOADS, AND THEY WERE

406
00:14:44,049 --> 00:14:45,789
RETURNING, IS 1200 KILOGRAMS OR

407
00:14:45,784 --> 00:14:48,724
CLOSE TO 2600 POUNDS.

408
00:14:48,721 --> 00:14:49,951
OVER TWO TONS OF RESEARCH

409
00:14:49,955 --> 00:14:52,595
HARDWARE COMING UP, AND ALMOST A

410
00:14:52,591 --> 00:14:53,761
TON COMING HOME.

411
00:14:53,759 --> 00:14:55,729
SO THE SPACE STATION IS AN

412
00:14:55,728 --> 00:14:57,768
INTERNATIONAL LABORATORY IN

413
00:14:57,763 --> 00:14:58,193
SPACE.

414
00:14:58,197 --> 00:14:59,267
IT'S MULTI DISCIPLINARY.

415
00:14:59,265 --> 00:15:00,535
AND MUCH DIFFERENT THAN A LOT OF

416
00:15:00,532 --> 00:15:01,902
LABS YOU WOULD FIND HERE ON THE

417
00:15:01,900 --> 00:15:03,800
GROUND, WHICH ARE FOCUSED ON ONE

418
00:15:03,802 --> 00:15:07,272
TYPE OF RESEARCH OR MAYBE VERY

419
00:15:07,273 --> 00:15:10,273
ONE SPECIFIC TYPE OF RESEARCH.

420
00:15:10,276 --> 00:15:12,376
WE'RE MULTI DISCIPLINARIES.

421
00:15:12,378 --> 00:15:17,318
WE CATEGORIZE OURSELVES IN SIX

422
00:15:17,316 --> 00:15:17,746
CATEGORIES.

423
00:15:17,750 --> 00:15:20,550
WE HAVE BIOLOGY, EARTH AND SPACE

424
00:15:20,552 --> 00:15:21,182
SCIENCE.

425
00:15:21,186 --> 00:15:22,256
TECHNOLOGY DEMONSTRATION AS WELL

426
00:15:22,254 --> 00:15:24,054
AS EDUCATION AND OUTREACH.

427
00:15:24,056 --> 00:15:25,856
AND AT ANY ONE TIME DURING THE

428
00:15:25,858 --> 00:15:26,758
COURSE OF THE YEAR WE HAVE

429
00:15:26,759 --> 00:15:28,059
HUNDREDS OF EXPERIMENTS GOING

430
00:15:28,060 --> 00:15:28,630
ON.

431
00:15:28,627 --> 00:15:31,227
RIGHT NOW I WOULD PUT THAT

432
00:15:31,230 --> 00:15:32,400
NUMBER SOMEWHERE AROUND 250.

433
00:15:32,398 --> 00:15:34,168
THE CREW DOESN'T OPERATE IN ALL

434
00:15:34,166 --> 00:15:34,796
THOSE.

435
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,740
A LOT OF THOSE ARE BEING

436
00:15:36,735 --> 00:15:39,735
OPERATED AUTONOMOUSLY FROM THE

437
00:15:39,738 --> 00:15:41,208
GROUND, AND IN A LOT OF CASES

438
00:15:41,206 --> 00:15:42,476
THE CREW ARE THE SUBJECTS, IN

439
00:15:42,474 --> 00:15:43,914
THE CASE OF HUMAN RESEARCH.

440
00:15:43,909 --> 00:15:46,249
TO DATE WITH THE ISS PROGRAM AND

441
00:15:46,245 --> 00:15:49,415
THE 16 OR SO, 17 YEARS WE'VE

442
00:15:49,415 --> 00:15:55,055
BEEN PERMANENTLY OCCUPIED WE'VE

443
00:15:55,054 --> 00:15:56,994
HAD 1700 EXPERIMENTS INCLUDING

444
00:15:56,989 --> 00:15:58,289
THE SHUTTLE MISSIONS THAT

445
00:15:58,290 --> 00:15:59,390
BROUGHT SCIENCE TO US.

446
00:15:59,391 --> 00:16:02,061
WE'VE HAD OVER 3300 DIFFERENT

447
00:16:02,061 --> 00:16:03,291
SCIENTISTS FROM AROUND THE WORLD

448
00:16:03,295 --> 00:16:04,895
PARTICIPATE, AND WE'RE SOMEWHERE

449
00:16:04,897 --> 00:16:06,197
AROUND 100 COUNTRIES THAT HAVE

450
00:16:06,198 --> 00:16:07,198
PARTICIPATED NOW.

451
00:16:07,199 --> 00:16:09,069
AND OUR GOALS WITH ISS RESEARCH

452
00:16:09,068 --> 00:16:11,508
ARE TO ADVANCE THE KNOWLEDGE OF

453
00:16:11,503 --> 00:16:12,873
THE NATURAL LIFE, THE NATURAL

454
00:16:12,871 --> 00:16:15,141
WORLD AROUND US TO ENABLE FUTURE

455
00:16:15,140 --> 00:16:16,410
SPACE EXPLORATION.

456
00:16:16,408 --> 00:16:18,978
WE'RE NOW EXPANDING THE

457
00:16:18,977 --> 00:16:20,947
COMMERCIAL MARKET IN ORBIT.OT

458
00:16:20,946 --> 00:16:22,646
NOT JUST COMMERCIAL COMPANIES

459
00:16:22,648 --> 00:16:23,978
LAUNCHING TO US, BUT PROVIDING

460
00:16:23,982 --> 00:16:26,052
HARDWARE AND PARTNERING WITH OUR

461
00:16:26,051 --> 00:16:27,591
SCIENTISTS, AND WE'RE WORKING TO

462
00:16:27,586 --> 00:16:29,386
IMPROVE OUR LIFE HERE ON EARTH.

463
00:16:29,388 --> 00:16:32,458
IF YOU--I'M NOT GOING TO TALK

464
00:16:32,458 --> 00:16:33,828
TOO MUCH ABOUT THE SCIENCE

465
00:16:33,826 --> 00:16:36,826
TODAY, AND I HOPE YOU COME BACKG

466
00:16:36,829 --> 00:16:38,869
3:30 EASTERN TIME. US,

467
00:16:38,864 --> 00:16:40,834
WE HAVE SCIENTISTS COMING TO

468
00:16:40,833 --> 00:16:43,233
TALK TO US FROM THE NASA SIDESI.

469
00:16:43,235 --> 00:16:44,575
AND THE LABORATORY SIDE.

470
00:16:44,570 --> 00:16:48,070
FIRST UP, YOU'LL SEE TWO

471
00:16:48,073 --> 00:16:50,673
SCIENTISTS FROM THE MICHAEL J.

472
00:16:50,676 --> 00:16:55,446
FOX FOUNDATION TALKING ABOUT

473
00:16:55,447 --> 00:16:57,087
PARKINSON'S DISEASE AND THEY'RE

474
00:16:57,082 --> 00:16:59,552
TALKING ABOUT A CRYSTAL

475
00:16:59,551 --> 00:17:02,321
RESPONSIBLE FOR PARKINSON'S

476
00:17:02,321 --> 00:17:03,021
DISEASE.

477
00:17:03,021 --> 00:17:05,021
AND THEY'RE HOPING TO GET A GOOD

478
00:17:05,023 --> 00:17:06,163
UNDERSTANDING OF THE STRUCTURE R

479
00:17:06,158 --> 00:17:07,758
OF THE CRYSTAL SO THEY CAN

480
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,160
UNDERSTAND THE PATHOLOGY OF THE

481
00:17:10,162 --> 00:17:11,602
PARKINSON'S DISEASE AS WELL AS

482
00:17:11,597 --> 00:17:13,367
POTENTIALLY DEVELOP THERAPIES

483
00:17:13,365 --> 00:17:14,405
FOR TREATING IT.

484
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,170
WE HAVE ANOTHER SCIENTIST WHO

485
00:17:16,168 --> 00:17:19,508
WILL BE TALKING ABOUT GROWING

486
00:17:19,505 --> 00:17:24,945
LUNG TISSUE IN SPACE BY STEERING

487
00:17:24,943 --> 00:17:26,283
CELLS TO GO INTO LUNG TISSUE.E.

488
00:17:26,278 --> 00:17:31,048
THEY HOPE TO GROW BIO-ENGINEERED

489
00:17:31,049 --> 00:17:32,249
TISSUES TO HELP US REPLACETIS

490
00:17:32,251 --> 00:17:34,221
ORGANS ON THE GROUND ANDD A

491
00:17:34,219 --> 00:17:36,489

00:17:36,488 --> 00:17:38,388
DAN MENTIONED THE CREAM ORG

493
00:17:38,390 --> 00:17:39,090
EXPERIMENT.

494
00:17:39,091 --> 00:17:42,331
WE CALL THIS THE ISS CREAM OR

495
00:17:42,327 --> 00:17:46,227
ICE CREAM COSMIC RAYS IS WHAT IS

496
00:17:46,231 --> 00:17:46,961
MEASURES.F T

497
00:17:46,965 --> 00:17:49,565
IT GOES OUTSIDE OF THE SPACE COC

498
00:17:49,568 --> 00:17:55,678
STATION AND IT WILL BE LAUNCHEDB

499
00:17:55,674 --> 00:17:57,774
EXTERNALLY IN THE TRUNK OF THE

500
00:17:57,776 --> 00:17:59,276
DRAGON AND INSTALLED ON THEIDE

501
00:17:59,278 --> 00:18:00,578
OUTSIDE OF THE SPACE STATION. G

502
00:18:00,579 --> 00:18:01,949
THIS IS A GOOD EXAMPLE OF USING

503
00:18:01,947 --> 00:18:02,147
ISS

504
00:18:02,147 --> 00:18:04,387
THE ISS AS A PLATFORM THAT ISADP

505
00:18:04,383 --> 00:18:06,253
ALREADY IN SPACE AND GIVES

506
00:18:06,251 --> 00:18:07,191
SERVICES.

507
00:18:07,186 --> 00:18:07,916
THE CREAM EXPERIMENT HAS BEEN

508
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:09,660
LAUNCHED SEVERAL TIMESIMNC OD SH

509
00:18:09,655 --> 00:18:11,325
ALTITUDE BALLOONS AND HAS BEENS.

510
00:18:11,323 --> 00:18:12,463
SUCCESSFUL THERE.

511
00:18:12,458 --> 00:18:13,858
THEY'RE ADAPTING THE INSTRUMENT

512
00:18:13,859 --> 00:18:15,529
TO PUT IT ON THE OUTSIDE OF THEI

513
00:18:15,527 --> 00:18:16,797
SPACE STATION. T

514
00:18:16,795 --> 00:18:19,835
WE PROVIDE POWER, DATA AND OTHE.

515
00:18:19,832 --> 00:18:21,772
SERVICES AS WELL AS A PLATFORM

516
00:18:21,767 --> 00:18:24,967
IN SPACE.

517
00:18:24,970 --> 00:18:29,780
NEXT WE'LL LOOK AT RODENTS ON

518
00:18:29,775 --> 00:18:32,575
ISS FOR 30 DAYS AND THEN BROUGHB

519
00:18:32,578 --> 00:18:35,078
HOME LIVE AND HOW THEY DEVELOPEL

520
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:36,780
IN SPACE. S

521
00:18:36,782 --> 00:18:40,182
RODENTS ARE MODEL ORGANISMS FOR

522
00:18:40,185 --> 00:18:40,885
US. F

523
00:18:40,886 --> 00:18:44,056
THEIR LIFE SPAN IS FASTER ON

524
00:18:44,056 --> 00:18:48,996
SPACE, AND WE'LL LOOK AT VISUAL

525
00:18:48,994 --> 00:18:53,294
IMPAIRMENT, THE FLUID SHIFT ANDN

526
00:18:53,298 --> 00:18:56,498
CRANIAL PRESSURE AS WELL AS BONE

527
00:18:56,502 --> 00:18:59,502
STRUCTURE, HIPS, KNEES, AND BONA

528
00:18:59,505 --> 00:19:00,105
JOINTS.

529
00:19:00,105 --> 00:19:02,645
YOU'LL HEAR ABOUT A MICRO

530
00:19:02,641 --> 00:19:04,041
SATELLITE, A DEMONSTRATION USING

531
00:19:04,042 --> 00:19:06,042
SATELLITE IN LOW ORBIT THAT IS

532
00:19:06,044 --> 00:19:08,644
ABLE TO BE COMMANDED ANDO

533
00:19:08,647 --> 00:19:09,887
REQUESTING IMAGERY FOR SOMEONE

534
00:19:09,882 --> 00:19:11,282
WHO IS ON THE GROUND. R

535
00:19:11,283 --> 00:19:13,383
AND THAT COMMUNICATION PATH DOES

536
00:19:13,385 --> 00:19:21,695
NOT NEED TO GO THROUGH THEOO E

537
00:19:21,693 --> 00:19:22,323
SATELLITE.

538
00:19:22,327 --> 00:19:23,767
THAT WILL HAVE GOOD APPLICATIONS

539
00:19:23,762 --> 00:19:24,962
ON THE GROUND FOR US.

540
00:19:24,963 --> 00:19:27,203
A FUN ONE THAT YOU'LL HEAR ABOUG

541
00:19:27,199 --> 00:19:30,199
IS FROM A GROUP OF BOY SCOUTS

542
00:19:30,202 --> 00:19:34,572
PARTNERING WITHRTNERING WITH NA,

543
00:19:34,573 --> 00:19:37,373
LOOKING AT CELL MUTATION AND HOW

544
00:19:37,376 --> 00:19:39,376
MICRO GRAVITY INCREASES THE RATE

545
00:19:39,378 --> 00:19:40,178
OF MUTATION.

546
00:19:40,178 --> 00:19:44,488
THERE IS GOOD STUFF COMING TO US

547
00:19:44,483 --> 00:19:48,083
FROM THE SPACEX DRAGON LAUNCH

548
00:19:48,086 --> 00:19:48,956
TOMORROW.

549
00:19:48,954 --> 00:19:52,654
THEY MENTIONED PEGGY WHITSON,

550
00:19:52,658 --> 00:19:56,058
HER STAY WAS EXTENDED BECAUSE OF

551
00:19:56,061 --> 00:19:57,361
HER AVAILABILITY ON THE SEAT.

552
00:19:57,362 --> 00:19:59,002
HER EXTENSION HAS BROUGHT US

553
00:19:58,997 --> 00:20:00,697
FOUR CREW MEMBERS THAN WE WERE

554
00:20:00,699 --> 00:20:02,599
EXPECTING, BUT WHAT THAT DOES IS

555
00:20:02,601 --> 00:20:05,341
THAT DOUBLES THE NUMBER OF CREW

556
00:20:05,337 --> 00:20:07,407
TIME THAT WE CAN GET FROM THE

557
00:20:07,406 --> 00:20:09,546
CREW TO DEVOTE TO SCIENCE.

558
00:20:09,541 --> 00:20:13,841
WE ALREADY HAD THE MEDICAL,

559
00:20:13,845 --> 00:20:15,485
MAINTENANCE COVERED, SO ALL THAT

560
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,680
TIME GOES OUR WAY, IT GOES TO

561
00:20:17,683 --> 00:20:18,613
SCIENCE.

562
00:20:18,617 --> 00:20:22,817
WITH THE LAUNCH OF SOYUS IN

563
00:20:22,821 --> 00:20:24,691
ACCEPT, THAT WILL CONTINUE

564
00:20:24,690 --> 00:20:26,830
HAVING FOUR US CREW MEMBERS.

565
00:20:26,825 --> 00:20:28,295
THAT ARRANGEMENT GOES THROUGH

566
00:20:28,293 --> 00:20:29,963
NEXT SUMMER, AND WE'RE LOOKING

567
00:20:29,962 --> 00:20:31,392
AHEAD TO THE TIME WHEN THE

568
00:20:31,396 --> 00:20:33,566
COMMERCIAL CREW PROGRAMS WILL BE

569
00:20:33,565 --> 00:20:34,805
BRINGING U.S. CREW MEMBERS FOR

570
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:35,430
US.

571
00:20:35,434 --> 00:20:36,764
SO PART OF THE MESSAGE THERE IS

572
00:20:36,768 --> 00:20:38,468
WE HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO DO THE

573
00:20:38,470 --> 00:20:40,010
THINGS THAT WE WANT TO DO ON

574
00:20:40,005 --> 00:20:40,435
STATION.

575
00:20:40,439 --> 00:20:43,479
IF YOU'RE A SCIENTIST WE WANT TO

576
00:20:43,475 --> 00:20:45,315
HEAR FROM YOU BECAUSE IT'S A

577
00:20:45,310 --> 00:20:47,880
GOOD TIME TO COME BACK AND WORK

578
00:20:47,879 --> 00:20:48,679
WITH US.

579
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,150
THERE ARE OTHER THINGS GOING ON

580
00:20:50,148 --> 00:20:51,348
WITH NASA AS WELL.

581
00:20:51,350 --> 00:20:52,750
YOU HEARD THAT THERE IS AN

582
00:20:52,751 --> 00:20:54,091
ECLIPSE HAPPENING A WEEK FROM

583
00:20:54,086 --> 00:20:54,716
MONDAY.

584
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,320
THE ISS CREW WILL SEE THAT

585
00:20:57,322 --> 00:20:58,392
ECLIPSE AS WELL.

586
00:20:58,390 --> 00:21:00,290
THEY'LL SEE IT FROM THREE

587
00:21:00,292 --> 00:21:01,492
CONSECUTIVE ORBITS.

588
00:21:01,493 --> 00:21:03,033
THE FIRST ORBIT THEY'LL BE

589
00:21:03,028 --> 00:21:04,498
FLYING OVER THE PACIFIC

590
00:21:04,496 --> 00:21:04,996
NORTHWEST.

591
00:21:04,997 --> 00:21:06,497
THE SHADOW WILL NOT BE ON THE

592
00:21:06,498 --> 00:21:09,368
GROUND YET, BUT THEY'LL SEE A

593
00:21:09,368 --> 00:21:11,368
SPANISH ECLIPSE AS THIS GO.

594
00:21:11,370 --> 00:21:13,870
THE SECOND ORBIT, THEY'LL BE

595
00:21:13,872 --> 00:21:15,242
GOING OVER CANADA AND THEY'LL BE

596
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:16,910
ABLE TO SEE THE SHADOW ON THE

597
00:21:16,908 --> 00:21:18,308
GROUND SOMEWHERE AROUND KENTUCKY

598
00:21:18,310 --> 00:21:19,180
AND TENNESSEE.

599
00:21:19,177 --> 00:21:22,817
AND THEN ON THE THIRD ORBIT

600
00:21:22,814 --> 00:21:24,484
THEY'LL SEE MOST OF THE ECLIPSE

601
00:21:24,483 --> 00:21:26,653
OF THEIR THREE PASSES, THAT WILL

602
00:21:26,652 --> 00:21:28,922
BE 85% THAT THEY'LL BE ABLE TO

603
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:29,520
SEE.

604
00:21:29,521 --> 00:21:31,891
THE CREW WILL HAVE SPECIAL

605
00:21:31,890 --> 00:21:33,090
FILTERS AND SPECIAL CAMERAS TO

606
00:21:33,091 --> 00:21:34,291
LOOK AT THE ECLIPSE.

607
00:21:34,292 --> 00:21:36,132
IF YOU'RE GOING TO LOOK AT THE

608
00:21:36,128 --> 00:21:37,428
ECLIPSE YOU SHOULD HAVE THOSE

609
00:21:37,429 --> 00:21:38,829
THINGS, TOO.

610
00:21:38,830 --> 00:21:43,300
THERE ARE TOOLS FOR VIEWING THE

611
00:21:43,301 --> 00:21:48,771
ECLIPSE.

612
00:21:48,774 --> 00:21:52,874
WE'RE HOPING FOR CLEAR SKIES AS

613
00:21:52,878 --> 00:21:58,788
WELL.

614
00:21:58,784 --> 00:22:00,584
9:33 LOOK WEST FOR SOMETHING

615
00:22:00,585 --> 00:22:02,025
THAT LOOKS LIKE AN APRIL OVER

616
00:22:02,020 --> 00:22:03,420
THE HORIZON.

617
00:22:03,422 --> 00:22:05,462
IT WILL GO STRAIGHT OVER HEAD

618
00:22:05,457 --> 00:22:08,557
AND THEN DISAPPEAR IN THE ISS

619
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,160
SUNSET 200 MILES ABOVE US.

620
00:22:10,162 --> 00:22:12,562
BACK TO THE PURPOSE, THE

621
00:22:12,564 --> 00:22:14,604
BRIEFING OF SPACEX DRAGON.

622
00:22:14,599 --> 00:22:17,599
WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT THE SCIENCE

623
00:22:17,602 --> 00:22:19,542
IT'S BRINGING AND THAT IT WILL

624
00:22:19,538 --> 00:22:21,238
BRING HOME FOR US AND WE'RE

625
00:22:21,239 --> 00:22:23,379
EXCITED ABOUT WHAT IS GOING ON,

626
00:22:23,375 --> 00:22:25,315
ON THE ISS AS WELL.

627
00:22:25,310 --> 00:22:27,110
>> WE HAVE THE WEATHER UPDATE

628
00:22:27,112 --> 00:22:31,452
FOR YOU.

629
00:22:31,450 --> 00:22:34,590
WINDS EXPECTED TO BE 10 MPH.

630
00:22:34,586 --> 00:22:35,586
TEMPERATURES 85 DEGREES.

631
00:22:35,587 --> 00:22:36,987
THE ONLY CONCERNS FOR LAUNCH

632
00:22:36,988 --> 00:22:41,398
TOMORROW ARE THE CUMULUS CLOUDS

633
00:22:41,393 --> 00:22:43,593
AND PRECIPITATION.

634
00:22:43,595 --> 00:22:46,665
WE'RE 70% GO FOR TOMORROW'S

635
00:22:46,665 --> 00:22:47,895
LAUNCH.

636
00:22:47,899 --> 00:22:50,099
WE'LL TAKE YOUR QUESTIONS, IF

637
00:22:50,102 --> 00:22:51,502
YOU WOULD PLEASE RAISE YOUR

638
00:22:51,503 --> 00:22:52,673
HAND, STATE YOUR NAME AND

639
00:22:52,671 --> 00:22:54,671
AFFILIATION AND TO WHOM YOU'RE

640
00:22:54,673 --> 00:22:56,143
DIRECTING YOUR QUESTION.

641
00:22:56,141 --> 00:22:57,711
WE'LL START IN THE FRONT WITH

642
00:22:57,709 --> 00:22:58,509
MARSHA.

643
00:22:58,510 --> 00:23:12,190
>> I THINK FOR YOU, DAN.

644
00:23:12,190 --> 00:23:14,260
PEGGY WHITSON'S STAY IN SPACE,

645
00:23:14,259 --> 00:23:15,959
HOW MUCH DOES THAT PUSH YOUR

646
00:23:15,961 --> 00:23:19,331
TIME IN SPACE, AND IS THE

647
00:23:19,331 --> 00:23:20,601
ONE-YEAR CREW STILL IN THE

648
00:23:20,599 --> 00:23:21,329
PICTURE?

649
00:23:21,333 --> 00:23:28,073
HOW DOES THAT ALL WORK?

650
00:23:28,073 --> 00:23:29,513
>> FROM AGREEMENT WITH OUR

651
00:23:29,508 --> 00:23:31,078
RUSSIAN COLLEAGUES, SO THOSE

652
00:23:31,076 --> 00:23:32,746
DISCUSSIONS ARE ONGOING.

653
00:23:32,744 --> 00:23:37,814
WE DON'T HAVE AGREEMENT.

654
00:23:37,816 --> 00:23:41,086
AND AS FAR AS PEGGY, YOU KNOW, I

655
00:23:41,086 --> 00:23:42,856
DON'T KNOW IF WE REALLY SET UP

656
00:23:42,854 --> 00:23:44,424
AN ADVANCE THE ONE-YEAR

657
00:23:44,422 --> 00:23:46,462
PROTOCOLS THAT WE'RE LOOKING TO

658
00:23:46,458 --> 00:23:47,128
DO.

659
00:23:47,125 --> 00:23:48,695
THE TEAMS HAVE BEEN ABLE TO

660
00:23:48,693 --> 00:23:50,833
ADAPT TO THOSE AS WE HAVE GONE

661
00:23:50,829 --> 00:23:52,569
FROM SIX MONTHS TO NINE MONTHS,

662
00:23:52,564 --> 00:23:55,364
AND MORE DATA POINTS ON THINGS

663
00:23:55,367 --> 00:23:58,967
LIKE BONE DENSITY AND ALL KINDS

664
00:23:58,970 --> 00:24:00,510
OF BIOLOGICAL SAMPLES BEING

665
00:24:00,505 --> 00:24:04,045
TAKEN THAT THE RESEARCH TEAMS,

666
00:24:04,042 --> 00:24:05,412
HUMAN RESEARCH TEAMS ON THE

667
00:24:05,410 --> 00:24:07,510
GROUND WILL BE ABLE TO ANALYZE

668
00:24:07,512 --> 00:24:08,812
WHEN SHE GETS BACK.

669
00:24:08,814 --> 00:24:09,844
PETE, ANYTHING ELSE?

670
00:24:09,848 --> 00:24:10,648
>> SURE.

671
00:24:10,649 --> 00:24:13,019
THIS IS A GOOD WINDFALL FOR US.

672
00:24:13,018 --> 00:24:16,088
PEGGY WAS ALREADY A SUSPECT IN

673
00:24:16,087 --> 00:24:17,227
THE FLUID SHIFT EXPERIMENT,

674
00:24:17,222 --> 00:24:19,422
WHICH WAS ONE OF THE KEY

675
00:24:19,424 --> 00:24:21,294
EXPERIMENTS THAT SCOTT KELLY AND

676
00:24:21,293 --> 00:24:22,093
KYLE DID.

677
00:24:22,093 --> 00:24:24,093
NOW WITH HER DURATION INCREASED,

678
00:24:24,095 --> 00:24:25,395
SHE'S ON THE SAME SKILL THAT

679
00:24:25,397 --> 00:24:25,997
THEY WERE.

680
00:24:25,997 --> 00:24:29,397
NOT QUITE AS LONG BUT WE'RE

681
00:24:29,401 --> 00:24:30,371
CONTINUING HER FLUID SHIFT

682
00:24:30,368 --> 00:24:30,968
SESSIONS.

683
00:24:30,969 --> 00:24:32,939
SHE'S ALSO CONTINUING SOME OF

684
00:24:32,938 --> 00:24:34,408
THE OTHER SCIENCE THAT APPLIED

685
00:24:34,406 --> 00:24:37,406
TO THE ONE-YEAR MISSION.

686
00:24:37,409 --> 00:24:41,309
BEHAVIOR, FOOD SURVEYS, ALL OF

687
00:24:41,313 --> 00:24:43,713
HER BIOMEDICAL DATA THAT

688
00:24:43,715 --> 00:24:44,885
BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH CAN BE

689
00:24:44,883 --> 00:24:45,813
APPLIED AS WELL.

690
00:24:45,817 --> 00:24:47,717
>> DO YOU HAVE TO HAVE A RUSSIAN

691
00:24:47,719 --> 00:24:48,859
PARTNER WITH THIS?

692
00:24:48,854 --> 00:24:51,124
COULD YOU SEND UP AN AMERICAN OR

693
00:24:51,122 --> 00:24:52,992
TWO AMERICANS OR AN EUROPEAN?

694
00:24:52,991 --> 00:24:56,291
WHY DO YOU NEED TO HAVE THE

695
00:24:56,294 --> 00:24:58,094
RUSSIANS SIGN OFF ON THIS?

696
00:24:58,096 --> 00:24:59,296
>> CERTAINLY DURING THE PERIOD

697
00:24:59,297 --> 00:25:01,867
OF SOYU THAT WOULD BE THE CASE.

698
00:25:01,867 --> 00:25:16,317
THAT'S HOW FAR WE'VE LOOKED.

699
00:25:16,314 --> 00:25:21,224
I DON'T KNOW IF WE HAVE DO IT

700
00:25:21,219 --> 00:25:22,889
SOLELY ON OUR SIDE.

701
00:25:22,888 --> 00:25:25,088
I WOULD SAY YES, BUT THERE IS

702
00:25:25,090 --> 00:25:27,030
NOTHING THAT WOULD PRECLUDE US

703
00:25:27,025 --> 00:25:30,295
FROM THAT REGARD.

704
00:25:30,295 --> 00:25:32,635
>> A QUESTION FOR HANS AND ONE

705
00:25:32,631 --> 00:25:33,561
FOR DAN.

706
00:25:33,565 --> 00:25:35,005
WITH ONE DAY IN THE WINDOW TO

707
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:36,470
STAND DOWN FOR A WEEK, CAN YOU

708
00:25:36,468 --> 00:25:38,468
TALK ABOUT WHAT THE TEAMS DID TO

709
00:25:38,470 --> 00:25:40,840
FIX THE COMPUTER ISSUE THAT

710
00:25:40,839 --> 00:25:44,579
STOPPED THE COUNT DOWN OF NINE

711
00:25:44,576 --> 00:25:46,076
SECONDS, TWICE.

712
00:25:46,077 --> 00:25:49,077
FOR DAN, IS IT THE SCIENCE

713
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:50,620
EXPERIMENT FOR DRAGON OR THE

714
00:25:50,615 --> 00:25:57,085
NEED TO CATALOG THE FLIGHTS, AND

715
00:25:57,088 --> 00:26:02,598
WHY CAN'T DRAGON LAUNCH AND

716
00:26:02,594 --> 00:26:15,874
LOITER BEHIND THEIST. BEHIND IS.

717
00:26:15,874 --> 00:26:17,374
>> THOSE COMPUTERS ARE GROUND

718
00:26:17,375 --> 00:26:20,115
COMPUTERS AND THEY WORK WITH

719
00:26:20,111 --> 00:26:21,081
CHECKS FOR VALUES.

720
00:26:21,079 --> 00:26:23,219
THOSE ARE THINGS THAT ARE EASY

721
00:26:23,214 --> 00:26:26,414
TO FIX.

722
00:26:26,418 --> 00:26:30,518
AND HAVE BEEN FIXED RIGHT AWAY

723
00:26:30,522 --> 00:26:32,722
AND TEST AGAIN.

724
00:26:32,724 --> 00:26:34,164
I DON'T ANTICIPATE THAT TO BE A

725
00:26:34,159 --> 00:26:34,789
PROBLEM.

726
00:26:34,793 --> 00:26:36,733
ALTHOUGH I SHOULDN'T REALLY SAY

727
00:26:36,728 --> 00:26:37,298
THIS.

728
00:26:37,295 --> 00:26:41,905
KNOCK ON WOOD.

729
00:26:41,900 --> 00:26:50,610
I THINK ITS 30%.

730
00:26:50,608 --> 00:26:52,278
BUT THOSE CHANGE, AND EVEN IF

731
00:26:52,277 --> 00:26:55,017
YOU STOP IN THAT 30% IT'S NOT

732
00:26:55,013 --> 00:26:55,483
GOOD.

733
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:56,820
HAVING SAID THAT, I THINK

734
00:26:56,815 --> 00:26:58,015
EVERYTHING ELSE LOOKS PRETTY

735
00:26:58,016 --> 00:27:19,406
GOOD.

736
00:27:19,404 --> 00:27:27,814
I'M OPTIMISTIC ABOUT THIS

737
00:27:27,812 --> 00:27:28,382
LAUNCH.

738
00:27:28,380 --> 00:27:30,320
AND WE'LL SEE HOW IT GOES.

739
00:27:30,315 --> 00:27:32,255
>> IF WE COULDN'T GET OFF

740
00:27:32,250 --> 00:27:33,550
TOMORROW, WE WOULD GO TO

741
00:27:33,551 --> 00:27:34,321
TUESDAY.

742
00:27:34,319 --> 00:27:36,119
AND THAT WOULD LINE IT UP ON THE

743
00:27:36,121 --> 00:27:37,251
RUSSIAN DAY.

744
00:27:37,255 --> 00:27:38,285
THAT'S THE OTHER QUESTION THAT

745
00:27:38,289 --> 00:27:40,989
WE PURSUED WITH OUR RUSSIAN

746
00:27:40,992 --> 00:27:41,592
COLLEAGUES.

747
00:27:41,593 --> 00:27:43,763
THEN THE RUSSIANS ON THAT DEPLOY

748
00:27:43,762 --> 00:27:46,302
FIVE SATELLITES, AND WE DO

749
00:27:46,297 --> 00:27:47,437
REQUIRE GOOD TRACKING ON THOSE

750
00:27:47,432 --> 00:27:51,472
SO WE KNOW WHERE TO FLY DRAGON

751
00:27:51,469 --> 00:27:55,469
AND HELP SPACEX FLY DRAGON TO

752
00:27:55,473 --> 00:27:56,713
THE ISS.

753
00:27:56,708 --> 00:27:58,778
THAT'S A BIG DEAL TO US.

754
00:27:58,777 --> 00:28:00,047
COULD WE LOITER?

755
00:28:00,045 --> 00:28:03,085
YES, AT THE EXPENSE OF LOSING

756
00:28:03,081 --> 00:28:03,781
RESEARCH.

757
00:28:03,782 --> 00:28:06,152
BECAUSE THERE ARE SAMPLES OF X

758
00:28:06,151 --> 00:28:10,391
AMOUNT OF HOURS BEFORE THEY'RE

759
00:28:10,388 --> 00:28:11,558
OFF-LOADED AND BROUGHT ON THE

760
00:28:11,556 --> 00:28:12,026
STATION.

761
00:28:12,023 --> 00:28:14,363
WE LOOK AT THOSE AS WELL.

762
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,799
THE LOITER DIDN'T CLOSE ON SOME

763
00:28:16,795 --> 00:28:19,665
OF THE RESEARCH PERIMETERS THAT

764
00:28:19,664 --> 00:28:20,434
WE HAD.

765
00:28:20,432 --> 00:28:21,802
THEN YOU GET PAST THAT.

766
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:25,200
YOU HAVE TEDRIS ON THE 18TH WITH

767
00:28:25,203 --> 00:28:27,303
A BACK-UP DAY ON THE 19TH.

768
00:28:27,305 --> 00:28:30,905
WHEN WE LOOK AT IT, AND AT LEAST

769
00:28:30,909 --> 00:28:32,779
FROM A COMPATIBILITY WITH THE

770
00:28:32,777 --> 00:28:33,507
STALKINGS THAT SEEMS TO PLAY

771
00:28:33,511 --> 00:28:34,111
OKAY.

772
00:28:34,112 --> 00:28:36,612
WHETHER WE CAN GET RAIN, SPACEX

773
00:28:36,614 --> 00:28:38,984
THERE ARE A LOT OF THINGS TO DO

774
00:28:38,983 --> 00:28:39,783
THERE.

775
00:28:39,784 --> 00:28:42,954
WE LOOK AT THOSE, AND THEY WERE

776
00:28:42,954 --> 00:28:50,964
EXCEPTIBLE DAYS.

777
00:28:50,962 --> 00:28:52,502
>> HAVE YOU STARTED PROCESSING

778
00:28:52,497 --> 00:28:54,337
THAT AND LEARNING ANYTHING FROM

779
00:28:54,332 --> 00:28:54,962
THAT.

780
00:28:54,966 --> 00:28:56,866
WOULD THERE EVER BE A TIME THAT

781
00:28:56,868 --> 00:28:59,938
YOU WOULD SEND THE SHIP OUT EVEN

782
00:28:59,938 --> 00:29:05,308
THOUGH YOU'RE LANDING ONLINE.

783
00:29:05,310 --> 00:29:06,910
>> I THINK THERE WAS THE ONE

784
00:29:06,911 --> 00:29:08,481
CASE THAT YOU JUST DESCRIBED.

785
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,180
WE LEARNED A LOT OVER THE LAST

786
00:29:11,182 --> 00:29:14,822
LENDING TEST, I WOULD SAY.

787
00:29:14,819 --> 00:29:28,299
AND WE WORKED ON THAT, TOO.

788
00:29:28,299 --> 00:29:30,139
I THINK WE STILL HAVE TO LEARN A

789
00:29:30,135 --> 00:29:32,605
LITTLE BIT TO ACTUALLY LAND

790
00:29:32,604 --> 00:29:33,204
THEM.

791
00:29:33,204 --> 00:29:34,804
AND WE COVER AND WE USE THEM AT

792
00:29:34,806 --> 00:29:38,146
THIS POINT IN TIME.

793
00:29:38,143 --> 00:29:43,453
BUT IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE WOULD

794
00:29:43,448 --> 00:29:45,888
OVER THE HAST COUPLE OF MONTHS.

795
00:29:45,884 --> 00:29:49,054
NOT ON THIS ONE.

796
00:29:49,053 --> 00:29:50,523
OBVIOUSLY, THIS DOESN'T HAVE A

797
00:29:50,522 --> 00:29:51,322
FAIRING.

798
00:29:51,322 --> 00:29:52,662
THE NEXT FAIRING MISSION IS THE

799
00:29:52,657 --> 00:29:55,097
ONE AFTER THAT, A AND I THINK IT

800
00:29:55,093 --> 00:30:06,173
HAS AN ATTEMPT.

801
00:30:06,171 --> 00:30:07,771
>> TWO QUESTIONS.

802
00:30:07,772 --> 00:30:09,172
ONE ABOUT CREAM, IF YOU CAN

803
00:30:09,174 --> 00:30:10,004
ANSWER IT.

804
00:30:10,008 --> 00:30:14,508
WHY IS IT ON THE JIM AND NOT ON

805
00:30:14,512 --> 00:30:18,212
THE TRUSS.

806
00:30:18,216 --> 00:30:23,086
AND CAN YOU GIVE US THE FIRST

807
00:30:23,087 --> 00:30:24,787
FLIGHT--WHEN MIGHT WE SEE A

808
00:30:24,789 --> 00:30:27,789
FIRST FLIGHT FROM PAD 40?

809
00:30:27,792 --> 00:30:30,292
>> I CAN TAKE A SHOT AT CREAM.

810
00:30:30,295 --> 00:30:32,435
FROM A SCIENCE ASPECT YOU MIGHT

811
00:30:32,430 --> 00:30:33,870
WANT TO CHIME IN AS WELL.

812
00:30:33,865 --> 00:30:37,665
BUT THE JAB KNEES FACILITY HAS

813
00:30:37,669 --> 00:30:39,809
AN ACCOMMODATION AS A COOLING

814
00:30:39,804 --> 00:30:41,144
BOOTH.

815
00:30:41,139 --> 00:30:44,539
AND THE SITES WE HAVE ON THE

816
00:30:44,542 --> 00:30:46,212
TRUSS SEGMENTS DON'T HAVE THAT,

817
00:30:46,211 --> 00:30:48,481
THE COLUMBUS EXTERNAL SITES

818
00:30:48,479 --> 00:30:50,279
DON'T HAVE THAT, SO THERE IS AN

819
00:30:50,281 --> 00:30:52,351
UNIQUE CAPABILITY ON EIGHT OF

820
00:30:52,350 --> 00:30:58,990
THE TEN FACILITY SITES WHERE IT

821
00:30:58,990 --> 00:31:04,860
PASSES FLUID TO ACT AS A COOLING

822
00:31:04,862 --> 00:31:05,492
AGENT.

823
00:31:05,496 --> 00:31:06,866
WHERE YOU GET THE TEMPERATURES

824
00:31:06,864 --> 00:31:21,744
UP.

825
00:31:21,746 --> 00:31:23,486
THE CREAM PAYLOAD IS TIED IN TO

826
00:31:23,481 --> 00:31:26,821
OUR MAIN RADIATOR SYSTEM TO GIVE

827
00:31:26,818 --> 00:31:29,958
THEM THEIR CAPABILITY TO GIVE

828
00:31:29,954 --> 00:31:31,894
PAYLOADS TO GET THE POWER AND

829
00:31:31,889 --> 00:31:33,789
FROM THE RESEARCH SIDE I'M NOT

830
00:31:33,791 --> 00:31:42,201
QUITE SURE.

831
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,140
>> CREAM NEEDS A WIDE SKY.

832
00:31:44,135 --> 00:31:46,605
THE GEM DOES A PRETTY GOOD JOB.

833
00:31:46,604 --> 00:31:51,544
THE ISS CREAM, AS OPPOSED TO

834
00:31:51,542 --> 00:31:55,612
BALLOON CREAM, THE SITE ON THE

835
00:31:55,613 --> 00:31:57,213
GEM THAT IT'S GOING DO HAS A

836
00:31:57,215 --> 00:32:00,055
DECENT VIEW, AND ALSO ONE OF THE

837
00:32:00,051 --> 00:32:02,621
FEW THAT CAN ACCOMMODATE THAT

838
00:32:02,620 --> 00:32:03,620
BIG OF A PAYLOAD.

839
00:32:03,621 --> 00:32:05,361
THAT HEAVY AND THAT LARGE.

840
00:32:05,356 --> 00:32:06,556
>> DO YOU MIND REPEATING THE

841
00:32:06,557 --> 00:32:07,187
QUESTION?

842
00:32:07,191 --> 00:32:11,501
>> CAN YOU GIVE US AN UPDATE ON

843
00:32:11,496 --> 00:32:14,836
PAD 39 A FOR FALCON AND REMOVING

844
00:32:14,832 --> 00:32:17,172
THE ISS AND PAD 40 GETTING THAT

845
00:32:17,168 --> 00:32:19,638
READY FOR THE FIRST FLIGHT OF

846
00:32:19,637 --> 00:32:21,577
FALCON FROM THERE, AND WHICH

847
00:32:21,572 --> 00:32:22,842
FLIGHT IT MIGHT BE?

848
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:29,180
>> SO I SHOULD HAVE DRIVEN BY 40

849
00:32:29,180 --> 00:32:30,050
THIS TIME.

850
00:32:30,048 --> 00:32:30,718
I DIDN'T.

851
00:32:30,715 --> 00:32:32,555
WE'RE MAKING GOOD PROGRESS BY

852
00:32:32,550 --> 00:32:33,050
40.

853
00:32:33,051 --> 00:32:35,321
IT HAS TO BE SCHEDULED SUCH

854
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:37,520
THERE IS NO DELAY FROM ONE PAD

855
00:32:37,522 --> 00:32:39,122
TO THE OTHER, OBVIOUSLY.

856
00:32:39,123 --> 00:32:41,423
AND THEN AS YOU POINTED OUT WE

857
00:32:41,426 --> 00:32:45,996
NEED TO ADD A COUPLE OF

858
00:32:45,997 --> 00:32:48,237
ADDITIONS THAT YOU ALREADY HAVE

859
00:32:48,232 --> 00:32:50,432
TO GET FALCON HEAVY READY.

860
00:32:50,435 --> 00:32:52,935
IN TERMS OF TIME FRAME, IT WILL

861
00:32:52,937 --> 00:32:55,107
BE FALL THAT YOU'LL SEE THIS

862
00:32:55,106 --> 00:33:00,046
HAPPEN, AND I--I DON'T THINK

863
00:33:00,044 --> 00:33:04,014
IT'S THE NEXT--IT MIGHT BE THE

864
00:33:04,015 --> 00:33:11,555
FIRST ONE FROM--I'M NOT SURE

865
00:33:11,556 --> 00:33:12,356
WHICH ONE.

866
00:33:12,357 --> 00:33:15,327
BUT IT HAS TO HAPPEN FROM FALL,

867
00:33:15,326 --> 00:33:17,696
OCTOBER, NOVEMBER TO GET READY

868
00:33:17,695 --> 00:33:20,765
FOR FALCON HEAVY AT THE SAME

869
00:33:20,765 --> 00:33:29,205
TIME.

870
00:33:29,207 --> 00:33:31,677
>> FOR HANS ARE YOU JUST AS

871
00:33:31,676 --> 00:33:37,086
GLAMMY ABOUT THE FALCON HEAVY AS

872
00:33:37,081 --> 00:33:43,151
ELON WAS?

873
00:33:43,154 --> 00:33:44,894
WHAT ARE THE CHALLENGES OF

874
00:33:44,889 --> 00:33:58,539
MAKING THAT ROCKET WORK?

875
00:33:58,536 --> 00:34:01,136
>> IT'S A BAGGY ROCKET, AND THE

876
00:34:01,139 --> 00:34:02,309
ACTUAL BOOST SEPARATION, YOU

877
00:34:02,306 --> 00:34:04,576
KNOW, IT'S REALLY GOING TO GO UP

878
00:34:04,575 --> 00:34:09,415
LIKE THE MODEL.

879
00:34:09,414 --> 00:34:12,114
I DON'T THINK THAT GLOOMY,

880
00:34:12,116 --> 00:34:12,616
FRANKLY.

881
00:34:12,617 --> 00:34:16,257
WE HAVE A GOOD SHOT AT IT,

882
00:34:16,254 --> 00:34:17,124
OBVIOUSLY.

883
00:34:17,121 --> 00:34:18,221
STILL TO LET PEOPLE KNOW THAT

884
00:34:18,222 --> 00:34:23,292
THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN

885
00:34:23,294 --> 00:34:25,434
THE OPERATION VEHICLE, A BIG

886
00:34:25,430 --> 00:34:26,660
MASSIVE ROCKET.

887
00:34:26,664 --> 00:34:29,764
IT'S TWO-THIRDS THE TRUST OF

888
00:34:29,767 --> 00:34:31,667
SOUTHERN 5, AND IT'S GOING TO BE

889
00:34:31,669 --> 00:34:34,239
THE BIGGEST OPERATIONAL ROCKET

890
00:34:34,238 --> 00:34:35,208
AT THAT POINT IN TIME.

891
00:34:35,206 --> 00:34:37,906
SO THERE ARE CERTAIN THINGS THAT

892
00:34:37,909 --> 00:34:42,509
ARE JUST UNKNOWN, UNCERTAIN, AND

893
00:34:42,513 --> 00:34:47,623
I THINK HE WANTS PEOPLE TO BE

894
00:34:47,618 --> 00:34:49,058
CAUTIOUS ON THIS PARTICULAR

895
00:34:49,053 --> 00:34:49,853
FLIGHT.

896
00:34:49,854 --> 00:34:51,054
THE FIRST FLIGHT.

897
00:34:51,055 --> 00:34:52,955
AND IT'S OFFENSE THAT THE

898
00:34:52,957 --> 00:34:55,097
ENGINEERS OF SPACE EX-WILL

899
00:34:55,092 --> 00:34:56,832
DOUBLE UP AND MAKE SURE THAT

900
00:34:56,828 --> 00:35:05,638
THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN, IT'S

901
00:35:05,636 --> 00:35:07,206
COMPLACENCY AND MAKING SURE THAT

902
00:35:07,205 --> 00:35:17,415
EVERYTHING IS DONE.

903
00:35:17,415 --> 00:35:18,415
>> STEPHEN.

904
00:35:18,416 --> 00:35:19,686
CLARK FROM SPACE FLIGHT NOW.

905
00:35:19,684 --> 00:35:22,854
ONE FOR HANS AND ONE FOR DAN.

906
00:35:22,854 --> 00:35:26,594
ARE YOU GOING TO INTRODUCE THE

907
00:35:26,591 --> 00:35:30,761
TITANIUM FINS FROM A FEW MONTHS

908
00:35:30,761 --> 00:35:31,331
BACK.

909
00:35:31,329 --> 00:35:35,969
AND FOR DAN, THE SPECIFIC DATE

910
00:35:35,967 --> 00:35:37,167
FOR SPLASH DOWN.

911
00:35:37,168 --> 00:35:42,378
IS THERE A DATE SET?

912
00:35:42,373 --> 00:35:43,003
THANKS.

913
00:35:43,007 --> 00:35:46,177
>> EVERY TEST, CERTAIN MATERIALS

914
00:35:46,177 --> 00:35:47,377
OF SOMETHING LIKE THAT, AND

915
00:35:47,378 --> 00:35:49,018
THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE THAT THIS

916
00:35:49,013 --> 00:35:50,143
IS ON THERE, TOO.

917
00:35:50,147 --> 00:35:51,517
I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY THE DETAILS

918
00:35:51,516 --> 00:35:57,356
ON THAT, THERE IS NOTHING

919
00:35:57,355 --> 00:36:01,855
MASSIVELY DIFFERENT ON THIS THAN

920
00:36:01,859 --> 00:36:03,259
FROM THE OTHER ONES.

921
00:36:03,261 --> 00:36:04,791
FROM THAT PERSPECTIVE, I DON'T

922
00:36:04,795 --> 00:36:10,505
HAVE THIS IN MY HEAD RIGHT NOW.

923
00:36:10,501 --> 00:36:11,801
>> MISSION DURATION, THE LAST I

924
00:36:11,802 --> 00:36:16,042
HEARD WAS 35 DAYS.

925
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:17,380
SO WE CAN'T DO THAT.

926
00:36:17,375 --> 00:36:20,515
I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT

927
00:36:20,511 --> 00:36:21,381
TRANSLATES INTO SEPTEMBER, 35

928
00:36:21,379 --> 00:36:24,579
DAYS PLUS LAUNCH IS WHERE WE'LL

929
00:36:24,582 --> 00:36:25,212
BE.

930
00:36:25,216 --> 00:36:29,756
>> FOR HANS, I NOTICED THE ISS,

931
00:36:29,754 --> 00:36:31,254
YOU'VE REALLY TAKEN THE ISS

932
00:36:31,255 --> 00:36:31,885
APART.

933
00:36:31,889 --> 00:36:33,529
WHAT IS THE SCHEDULE FOR THAT?

934
00:36:33,524 --> 00:36:34,824
WHEN DO YOU EXPECT THAT TO BE

935
00:36:34,825 --> 00:36:35,865
COMPLETELY DOWN?

936
00:36:35,860 --> 00:36:38,130
>> I WANT TO SAY THAT IT'S

937
00:36:38,129 --> 00:36:42,899
DRIVEN OF--THERE IS NOT A

938
00:36:42,900 --> 00:36:43,630
SCHEDULE.

939
00:36:43,634 --> 00:36:45,034
WE'LL TAKE IT CAREFULLY DOWN.

940
00:36:45,036 --> 00:36:46,466
WE HAVE TO CLOSE THE AREA WHEN

941
00:36:46,470 --> 00:36:48,740
WE WORK ON IT, AND WHILE WE'RE

942
00:36:48,739 --> 00:36:51,309
LAUNCHING THAT MAY NOT ALWAYS BE

943
00:36:51,309 --> 00:36:52,079
POSSIBLE.

944
00:36:52,076 --> 00:36:52,846
I DON'T THINK IT'S A TOP

945
00:36:52,843 --> 00:36:53,543
PRIORITY.

946
00:36:53,544 --> 00:36:55,314
AND EVERYTHING THAT WE TAKE DOWN

947
00:36:55,313 --> 00:36:57,613
GOES TO NASA, SO IT'S NOT

948
00:36:57,615 --> 00:36:59,715
SOMETHING THAT WE SELL FOR SCRAP

949
00:36:59,717 --> 00:37:00,647
OR ANYTHING.

950
00:37:00,651 --> 00:37:02,691
IT GOES BACK TO NASA.

951
00:37:02,687 --> 00:37:05,487
>> AND JUST LOOKED OUR FLIGHT

952
00:37:05,489 --> 00:37:05,959
PLAN.

953
00:37:05,957 --> 00:37:07,957
THERE IS A SPECIFIC DAY ON

954
00:37:07,959 --> 00:37:08,659
THERE.

955
00:37:08,659 --> 00:37:11,499
WHEN WE LAUNCH, WE'LL RETURN ON

956
00:37:11,495 --> 00:37:12,765
9/17.

957
00:37:12,763 --> 00:37:15,133
>> WE'LL TAKE ONE FROM THE FRONT

958
00:37:15,132 --> 00:37:17,032
OF THE ROOM AND THEN TO THE

959
00:37:17,034 --> 00:37:21,134
PHONE BRING.

960
00:37:21,138 --> 00:37:23,608
>> I HAVE SOME QUESTIONS ABOUT

961
00:37:23,608 --> 00:37:26,648
THE CSR 11 DRAGON.

962
00:37:26,644 --> 00:37:29,114
DID IT REALLY COST TO REFURBISH

963
00:37:29,113 --> 00:37:30,753
IT AS COMPARED TO BUILDING A

964
00:37:30,748 --> 00:37:32,788
BRAND NEW ONE?

965
00:37:32,783 --> 00:37:36,423
AND HOW ARE YOU MOVING FORWARD

966
00:37:36,420 --> 00:37:37,920
REFURBISHING OTHER DRAGONNINGS,

967
00:37:37,922 --> 00:37:39,862
AND WHEN IS THE FINAL FLIGHT OF

968
00:37:39,857 --> 00:37:44,057
THE FACTORY-FRESH V 1 DRAGGEN.

969
00:37:44,061 --> 00:37:47,101
>> THE CSR 11, IT DOESN'T COST

970
00:37:47,098 --> 00:37:49,138
AS MUCH TO REFURBISH AS TO BUILD

971
00:37:49,133 --> 00:37:49,963
IT NEW.

972
00:37:49,967 --> 00:37:52,167
THAT MUCH IS CLEAR.

973
00:37:52,169 --> 00:37:54,469
OTHERWISE, THAT WOULD BE VERY

974
00:37:54,472 --> 00:37:55,102
WRONG.

975
00:37:55,106 --> 00:37:59,976
AND YOU KNOW, THE TO REFURNISH

976
00:37:59,977 --> 00:38:01,877
IT IS MORE EXPENSIVE BECAUSE YOU

977
00:38:01,879 --> 00:38:04,149
NEED TO LOOK AT STUFF, MAKE A

978
00:38:04,148 --> 00:38:05,988
DECISION AND FIND OUT WHICH ARE

979
00:38:05,983 --> 00:38:07,453
CRITICAL COMPONENTS AND WHICH

980
00:38:07,451 --> 00:38:10,051
ARE CRITICAL FOR REFURBISHMENT,

981
00:38:10,054 --> 00:38:13,254
AND COMPONENTS THAT ARE NOT A

982
00:38:13,257 --> 00:38:16,357
TEST PRICE.

983
00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:19,230
SO OBVIOUSLY WE EXPECT THE

984
00:38:19,230 --> 00:38:20,600
REFURBISHMENT COST TO COME DOWN

985
00:38:20,598 --> 00:38:25,768
OVER TIME, AND TO BE A LOT MORE

986
00:38:25,770 --> 00:38:27,000
ADVANTAGEOUS THAN THIS

987
00:38:27,004 --> 00:38:29,844
PARTICULAR FIRST ONE, TOO, YEAH?

988
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:31,580
AND THEN REGARDING THE FUTURE

989
00:38:31,575 --> 00:38:33,315
DRAGS, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE

990
00:38:33,310 --> 00:38:34,750
TALK ABOUT WITH NASA RIGHT NOW.

991
00:38:34,745 --> 00:38:36,015
I DON'T THINK WE'VE SETTLED ON

992
00:38:36,013 --> 00:38:38,253
EVERYTHING HERE.

993
00:38:38,249 --> 00:38:40,119
AND SO OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF

994
00:38:40,117 --> 00:38:41,457
WEEKS, MONTHS, THAT'S SOMETHING

995
00:38:41,452 --> 00:38:42,992
THAT WE'LL DETERMINE.

996
00:38:42,987 --> 00:38:47,657
ON THE SPACEX SIDE IT WOULD BE

997
00:38:47,658 --> 00:38:49,698
GREAT TO DISASSEMBLE THE LAST

998
00:38:49,694 --> 00:38:53,494
NEW DRAGON 1, AND THEN FROM THEN

999
00:38:53,497 --> 00:38:55,137
ON WE REDUCE THEM.

1000
00:38:55,132 --> 00:38:56,932
THEY HAVE BEEN BUILT AND

1001
00:38:56,934 --> 00:38:58,234
DESIGNED OVER THE YEARS.

1002
00:38:58,235 --> 00:38:59,835
THERE IS NO QUESTION ABOUT THAT.

1003
00:38:59,837 --> 00:39:04,407
AND THAT IS SOMETHING THAT WE

1004
00:39:04,408 --> 00:39:05,778
ALWAYS STRIVE FOR TO USE PARTS

1005
00:39:05,776 --> 00:39:16,286
AGAIN, AND GET MORE OPERATIONAL.

1006
00:39:16,287 --> 00:39:17,517
>> WE HAVE MARK?

1007
00:39:17,521 --> 00:39:20,091
>> YES, HELLO, GOOD AFTERNOON.

1008
00:39:20,091 --> 00:39:22,361
MARK, AEROSPACE NEWS MEDIA.

1009
00:39:22,359 --> 00:39:25,929
ONCE AGAIN THANK YOU FOR YOUR

1010
00:39:25,930 --> 00:39:26,860
INFORMATIVE BRIEFING THIS

1011
00:39:26,864 --> 00:39:27,464
AFTERNOON.

1012
00:39:27,465 --> 00:39:30,735
A TWO-PART QUESTION FOR HANS.

1013
00:39:30,735 --> 00:39:32,905
HANS, CAN YOU TELL ME ON ANY

1014
00:39:32,903 --> 00:39:38,743
MISSION WHAT IS THE MAXIMUM

1015
00:39:38,743 --> 00:39:39,473
PAYLOAD CAPACITY IN POUNDS IN

1016
00:39:39,477 --> 00:39:42,517
TERMS OF WEIGHT FOR THE DRAGON

1017
00:39:42,513 --> 00:39:46,213
CAPSULE, AND BASED ON THIS CRS

1018
00:39:46,217 --> 00:39:50,087
12 MISSION WITH THE IMPORTANT

1019
00:39:50,087 --> 00:39:55,927
PAYLOAD WITH RESEARCH TO ISS

1020
00:39:55,926 --> 00:39:57,096
WHAT IS THE MAXIMUM WEIGHT OF

1021
00:39:57,094 --> 00:39:57,694
THIS MISSION?

1022
00:39:57,695 --> 00:39:58,295
THANK YOU.

1023
00:39:58,295 --> 00:40:00,195
>> THIS IS OFF THE TOP OF MY

1024
00:40:00,197 --> 00:40:02,337
HEAD AND NOT NECESSARILY

1025
00:40:02,333 --> 00:40:02,833
ACCURATE.

1026
00:40:02,833 --> 00:40:04,033
BUT I THINK I SAW A NUMBER

1027
00:40:04,034 --> 00:40:06,574
YESTERDAY THAT IS

1028
00:40:06,570 --> 00:40:08,570
10,600-KILOGRAMS FOR THE ENTIRE

1029
00:40:08,572 --> 00:40:09,202
DRAGON.

1030
00:40:09,206 --> 00:40:11,776
AND IN TERMS OF IF THIS IS A

1031
00:40:11,776 --> 00:40:13,576
HEAVY DRAGON OR NOT, I DON'T

1032
00:40:13,577 --> 00:40:16,647
THINK IT'S A HEAVY DRAGON.

1033
00:40:16,647 --> 00:40:17,847
IN FACT, WHAT I WOULD SAY IS

1034
00:40:17,848 --> 00:40:19,818
THAT THIS ONE--IT IS ONE OF OUR

1035
00:40:19,817 --> 00:40:22,617
HEAVIER ONES, BUT WE'RE ALSO

1036
00:40:22,620 --> 00:40:28,560
INTERNAL TO THE DRAGON

1037
00:40:28,559 --> 00:40:29,529
VOLUME-METICLY.

1038
00:40:29,527 --> 00:40:31,327
WE'LL FLY WHAT WE NEED TO FLY.

1039
00:40:31,328 --> 00:40:34,868
AND WE VOLUMED OUT BEFORE WE

1040
00:40:34,865 --> 00:40:36,865
MASSED OUT IN TOTAL CAPABILITY.

1041
00:40:36,867 --> 00:40:39,707
THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT WE WANT TO

1042
00:40:39,703 --> 00:40:40,573
FLY.

1043
00:40:40,571 --> 00:40:41,541
SOMETIMES MASS ISN'T THE METRIC

1044
00:40:41,539 --> 00:40:42,669
TO USE.

1045
00:40:42,673 --> 00:40:44,013
THAT'S MY POINT.

1046
00:40:44,008 --> 00:40:50,748
>> THANK YOU.

1047
00:40:50,748 --> 00:40:52,548
>> JULIE HAYS IN WACO TEXAS,

1048
00:40:52,550 --> 00:40:55,190
ABOUT 10 MILES DOWN THE ROAD

1049
00:40:55,186 --> 00:40:56,856
FROM THE McGREGOR TESTING

1050
00:40:56,854 --> 00:40:57,354
FACILITY.

1051
00:40:57,354 --> 00:40:59,554
DAN AND HANS, THIS IS FOR BOTH

1052
00:40:59,557 --> 00:41:00,427
OF YOU.

1053
00:41:00,424 --> 00:41:02,024
IF YOU COULD TELL US ABOUT THE

1054
00:41:02,026 --> 00:41:03,666
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN NASA AND

1055
00:41:03,661 --> 00:41:06,261
SPACEX, HOW THAT IS, AND HOW

1056
00:41:06,263 --> 00:41:09,933
CRITICAL IS THE FACILITY LIKE

1057
00:41:09,934 --> 00:41:13,074
McGREGOR TO ACCOMPLISHING YOUR

1058
00:41:13,070 --> 00:41:13,670
GOALS.

1059
00:41:13,671 --> 00:41:15,411
>> THE RELATIONSHIP HAS GROWN

1060
00:41:15,406 --> 00:41:19,576
IMMENSELY WITH RESPECT AND

1061
00:41:19,577 --> 00:41:20,977
SHARING OF INFORMATION AND

1062
00:41:20,978 --> 00:41:23,448
KNOWLEDGE AND IT GOES BOTH WAYS.

1063
00:41:23,447 --> 00:41:24,547
DOING BUSINESS WITH SPACEX HAS

1064
00:41:24,548 --> 00:41:26,288
FORCED US TO COME BACK AND LOOK

1065
00:41:26,283 --> 00:41:28,423
AT OUR PROCESSES.

1066
00:41:28,419 --> 00:41:30,289
AND IT'S SOMEWHAT TURNING OVER

1067
00:41:30,287 --> 00:41:33,027
THE KEYS TO A COMMERCIAL

1068
00:41:33,023 --> 00:41:35,223
INDUSTRY TO TAKE OVER--NOT TAKE

1069
00:41:35,226 --> 00:41:37,066
OVER, BUT TO MATURE AND THE

1070
00:41:37,061 --> 00:41:40,861
ABILITY TO PERFORM COMMERCIAL

1071
00:41:40,865 --> 00:41:43,065
MARKETS AND WHAT WE'RE

1072
00:41:43,067 --> 00:41:43,667
ABSORBING.

1073
00:41:43,667 --> 00:41:47,507
OUR GOAL WILL BE TO GET OUT OF

1074
00:41:47,504 --> 00:41:50,574
EARTH ORBIT AND GET ON OUR WAY

1075
00:41:50,574 --> 00:41:51,144
TO MARS.

1076
00:41:51,141 --> 00:41:52,341
WE WANT TO LEAVE MIND THE

1077
00:41:52,343 --> 00:41:53,913
KNOWLEDGE WE'VE GAINED FOR ALL

1078
00:41:53,911 --> 00:41:56,081
THESE YEARS TO THE SPACEXs OF

1079
00:41:56,080 --> 00:42:00,950
THE YEARS, TO THE OTHER

1080
00:42:00,951 --> 00:42:02,691
COMPANIES SO THEY CAN PICK UP

1081
00:42:02,686 --> 00:42:06,226
AND SEE IN THE NEXT FIVE OR TEN

1082
00:42:06,223 --> 00:42:09,623
YEARS MORE OF A VIBRANT

1083
00:42:09,627 --> 00:42:11,797
COMMERCIAL MARKET IN ORBIT WHICH

1084
00:42:11,795 --> 00:42:13,765
CAN BE SELF SUSTAINED.

1085
00:42:13,764 --> 00:42:17,164
YOU'LL HAVE COMMERCIAL LAUNCHES,

1086
00:42:17,167 --> 00:42:18,837
AND CREWS, AND THINKING PAST

1087
00:42:18,836 --> 00:42:20,776
WHEN THE ISS IS DONE.

1088
00:42:20,771 --> 00:42:22,611
YOU KNOW, WE WANT TO BE ABLE

1089
00:42:22,606 --> 00:42:24,176
TO--I THINK IT WOULD BE GOOD FOR

1090
00:42:24,174 --> 00:42:25,714
THE NATION, GOOD FOR THE WORLD

1091
00:42:25,709 --> 00:42:27,679
IF WE CARRIED ON WITH SOME OF

1092
00:42:27,678 --> 00:42:29,718
THE FUNDAMENTAL RESEARCH THAT

1093
00:42:29,713 --> 00:42:31,153
WE'VE DONE IN ORBIT.

1094
00:42:31,148 --> 00:42:34,188
WE'RE PLANNING TO LEAVE THAT IN

1095
00:42:34,184 --> 00:42:37,884
THE COMMERCIAL MARKETS TO DO

1096
00:42:37,888 --> 00:42:41,288
THAT.

1097
00:42:41,292 --> 00:42:43,592
>> TODAY SPACEX WORKS WELL AS A

1098
00:42:43,594 --> 00:42:44,324
TEAM.

1099
00:42:44,328 --> 00:42:45,558
AND THERE ARE THINGS THAT THEY

1100
00:42:45,562 --> 00:42:47,102
DO REALLY WELL, AND THERE ARE

1101
00:42:47,097 --> 00:42:50,597
THINGS THAT NASA DOES REALLY

1102
00:42:50,601 --> 00:42:56,111
WELL.

1103
00:42:56,106 --> 00:42:59,706
NASA HAS ENORMOUS RESOURCES TO

1104
00:42:59,710 --> 00:43:01,410
GETTING THINGS DONE.

1105
00:43:01,412 --> 00:43:12,352
AND THEN IN TURN WE REALLY ENJOY

1106
00:43:12,356 --> 00:43:18,066
LAUNCHING THE CARGOES.

1107
00:43:18,062 --> 00:43:20,302
AND RESPECT TO McGREGOR, IT IS

1108
00:43:20,297 --> 00:43:20,927
ESSENTIAL.

1109
00:43:20,931 --> 00:43:23,431
IT'S ONE OF OUR KEY IMPORTANT

1110
00:43:23,434 --> 00:43:25,074
FACILITIES, AS IMPORTANT AS THE

1111
00:43:25,069 --> 00:43:26,669
LAUNCH SITE.

1112
00:43:26,670 --> 00:43:28,270
WE TEST EVERY ENGINE THERE.

1113
00:43:28,272 --> 00:43:30,812
WE TEST THE ENGINE AT BASICALLY

1114
00:43:30,808 --> 00:43:32,178
THE ENVIRONMENT WHERE THEY'RE

1115
00:43:32,176 --> 00:43:33,276
GOING TO BE TESTED.

1116
00:43:33,277 --> 00:43:36,417
AND THEN WE SHOOK THE ENGINES

1117
00:43:36,413 --> 00:43:38,753
BACK, AND THEN SHIPPED THEM BACK

1118
00:43:38,749 --> 00:43:41,789
TO McGREGOR AND TEST THE

1119
00:43:41,785 --> 00:43:42,855
ENTIRE STAGE.

1120
00:43:42,853 --> 00:43:44,553
THAT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT

1121
00:43:44,555 --> 00:43:45,425
EVERYBODY DOES.

1122
00:43:45,422 --> 00:43:49,662
THAT HELPS US TO BECOME

1123
00:43:49,660 --> 00:43:50,090
RELIABLE.

1124
00:43:50,094 --> 00:43:52,764
THE McGREGOR CAST ALLOWS US TO

1125
00:43:52,763 --> 00:43:53,663
DO THIS.

1126
00:43:53,664 --> 00:43:54,894
IT IS NOT SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN

1127
00:43:54,898 --> 00:44:00,908
DO IN THE MIDDLE OF LOS ANGELES,

1128
00:44:00,904 --> 00:44:10,914
OBVIOUSLY.

1129
00:44:10,914 --> 00:44:12,314
I REMEMBER WHEN WE DECIDED THIS

1130
00:44:12,316 --> 00:44:14,686
WAS THE PLACE AND WHERE WE WOULD

1131
00:44:14,685 --> 00:44:16,525
BUILD OUR TEST SITE.

1132
00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:18,020
NOW THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF

1133
00:44:18,022 --> 00:44:21,492
EMPLOYEES, IT'S A PROFESSIONAL

1134
00:44:21,492 --> 00:44:23,962
AND BUILT-UP SITE, AND IT'S

1135
00:44:23,961 --> 00:44:31,131
ESSENTIAL FOR US AND FOR NASA,

1136
00:44:31,135 --> 00:44:31,765
TOO.

1137
00:44:31,769 --> 00:44:33,539
>> FOR DAN, ORIGINALLY WE HEARD

1138
00:44:33,537 --> 00:44:36,837
THE OCTOBER DATE FOR THE NEXT

1139
00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:37,410
LAUNCH.

1140
00:44:37,408 --> 00:44:38,508
CAN YOU TALK ABOUT WHAT THE

1141
00:44:38,509 --> 00:44:40,109
FUTURE IS FOR THE REST OF THE

1142
00:44:40,110 --> 00:44:42,050
YEAR FOR CARGO RESUPPLY

1143
00:44:42,046 --> 00:44:44,086
MISSIONS, AND IF HAVING FOUR

1144
00:44:44,081 --> 00:44:45,921
CREW MEMBERS IS EFFECTING THAT,

1145
00:44:45,916 --> 00:44:48,956
EITHER NEEDING MORE OR NO

1146
00:44:48,952 --> 00:44:56,592
DIFFERENCE AT ALL?

1147
00:44:56,593 --> 00:45:00,663
>> SO WE'RE HONING TO GET OFF IN

1148
00:45:00,664 --> 00:45:05,534
THE EARLY DECEMBER TIME PERIOD.

1149
00:45:05,536 --> 00:45:07,306
A COUPLE OF REASONS FOR THAT.

1150
00:45:07,304 --> 00:45:10,244
NUMBER ONE, WE WANT TO GET THE

1151
00:45:10,240 --> 00:45:11,680
EVA'S IN FRONT OF THAT.

1152
00:45:11,675 --> 00:45:13,815
YOU WANT TO DO THAT

1153
00:45:13,811 --> 00:45:15,381
CONSECUTIVELY TO MAKE THE BEST

1154
00:45:15,379 --> 00:45:19,349
USE OF THE CREW TIME AND THE

1155
00:45:19,349 --> 00:45:24,159
REFURBISHMENT YOU NEED TO DO.

1156
00:45:24,154 --> 00:45:26,194
ACTUALLY WE WERE A LITTLE LIGHT

1157
00:45:26,190 --> 00:45:28,690
ON THE MISSION, AND WE WERE ABLE

1158
00:45:28,692 --> 00:45:31,432
TO GET NEW CARGO THAT BENEATH ON

1159
00:45:31,428 --> 00:45:34,628
THE ORDER OF 400 KILOGRAMS.

1160
00:45:34,631 --> 00:45:36,131
SO SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN THE

1161
00:45:36,133 --> 00:45:37,633
AMOUNT OF MASS WE CAN TAKE UP

1162
00:45:37,634 --> 00:45:39,504
FOR IT.

1163
00:45:39,503 --> 00:45:42,003
ALSO, KIND OF LIKE THAT DRAGON,

1164
00:45:42,005 --> 00:45:43,645
WE TRIED TO REALLY USE THE

1165
00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:45,640
DRAGON FOR RETURN OF SAMPLES.

1166
00:45:45,642 --> 00:45:49,342
AND YOU KNOW, FOR THE RESEARCH

1167
00:45:49,346 --> 00:45:50,746
COMMUNITY.

1168
00:45:50,747 --> 00:45:54,447
THE SICKNESS VEHICLE IS A

1169
00:45:54,451 --> 00:45:56,791
TREMENDOUS DISPOSAL CARGO

1170
00:45:56,787 --> 00:45:57,717
HAULER, TRASH IS ANOTHER WORD

1171
00:45:57,721 --> 00:45:58,121
FOR IT.

1172
00:45:58,122 --> 00:46:00,922
SO WE TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHERE TO

1173
00:46:00,924 --> 00:46:03,694
SPACE THOSE BASED ON THE SPACE

1174
00:46:03,694 --> 00:46:06,564
STATION AS WELL.

1175
00:46:06,563 --> 00:46:09,403
I THINK THE NEXT ORBITAL MISSION

1176
00:46:09,399 --> 00:46:12,439
IS IN THE MARCH LAUNCH PERIOD.

1177
00:46:12,436 --> 00:46:16,806
WE'RE THINKING OF TRASH

1178
00:46:16,807 --> 00:46:18,407
ACCUMULATION AND WHEN WE SHOULD

1179
00:46:18,408 --> 00:46:19,808
PUT THOSE IN PLACE.

1180
00:46:19,810 --> 00:46:21,310
IT'S ANOTHER FACTOR OF WHERE WE

1181
00:46:21,311 --> 00:46:25,051
COME TO PLACE THE LAUNCH AS WHEN

1182
00:46:25,048 --> 00:46:28,218
WE DO.

1183
00:46:28,218 --> 00:46:31,718
FROM A FOOD AND WATER SUPPLY,

1184
00:46:31,722 --> 00:46:35,522
OUR CONSUMABLES ARE IN VERY GOOD

1185
00:46:35,526 --> 00:46:36,026
SHAPE.

1186
00:46:36,026 --> 00:46:39,296
AND IT WILL HAVE NO IMPACT TO

1187
00:46:39,296 --> 00:46:42,166
OUR CREW.

1188
00:46:42,166 --> 00:46:44,806
>> MARSHA.

1189
00:46:44,801 --> 00:46:47,101
>> FIRST FOR HANS, WHAT DO YOU

1190
00:46:47,104 --> 00:46:50,704
SEE THE BIGGEST HURDLES FOR

1191
00:46:50,707 --> 00:46:52,507
MAKING THE LAUNCH DATE.

1192
00:46:52,509 --> 00:46:54,709
THEN I HAVE FOR DAN, THE ICE

1193
00:46:54,711 --> 00:46:56,881
CREAM BARS ARE GOING UP IN THE

1194
00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:57,510
FREEZER.

1195
00:46:57,514 --> 00:46:58,754
IS THERE SCIENCE GOING UP INSIDE

1196
00:46:58,749 --> 00:47:00,419
OF THAT, TOO OR IS IT GOING UP

1197
00:47:00,417 --> 00:47:07,727
EMPTY TO BRING STUFF BACK?

1198
00:47:07,724 --> 00:47:10,094
>> THE BIGGEST HURDLE, IF I KNEW

1199
00:47:10,093 --> 00:47:12,063
THE BIGGEST HURDLES NOW, WE

1200
00:47:12,062 --> 00:47:13,532
WOULD BE WORKING ON IT AND

1201
00:47:13,530 --> 00:47:15,130
THROWING RESOURCES AT IT.

1202
00:47:15,132 --> 00:47:16,972
AND OTHER HURDLES WOULD BECOME

1203
00:47:16,967 --> 00:47:19,637
THE BIGGEST HURDLE.

1204
00:47:19,636 --> 00:47:20,806
IT'S A BIG PROJECT.

1205
00:47:20,804 --> 00:47:22,844
I WOULD SAY THAT IT HAS TO BE

1206
00:47:22,839 --> 00:47:31,779
BOTH WORKING ON THE LC 40 SIDE.

1207
00:47:31,782 --> 00:47:34,222
THOSE ARE TWO BIG PROJECTS.

1208
00:47:34,218 --> 00:47:36,418
WE HAVE GOOD CHANCE TO MAKE

1209
00:47:36,420 --> 00:47:38,020
IMPROVEMENTS, AND WE HAVE A LOT

1210
00:47:38,021 --> 00:47:40,591
OF AUTOMATION, AND REDUNDANCY

1211
00:47:40,591 --> 00:47:46,401
THAT WE'VE HAD ON 39 A.

1212
00:47:46,396 --> 00:47:49,896
THAT'S DEFINITELY A MUCH BETTER

1213
00:47:49,900 --> 00:47:50,500
PAD THAN IT WAS BEFORE.

1214
00:47:50,500 --> 00:47:53,300
SO WE HAVE TO GET THIS UP AND

1215
00:47:53,303 --> 00:47:53,903
GOING.

1216
00:47:53,904 --> 00:47:55,344
AND LIKEWISE, THERE ARE

1217
00:47:55,339 --> 00:47:56,069
COMPLEXITIES.

1218
00:47:56,073 --> 00:47:57,243
BIG ROCKET.

1219
00:47:57,241 --> 00:48:01,111
THREE DIFFERENT ROCKETS TOGETHER

1220
00:48:01,111 --> 00:48:07,921
BASICALLY.

1221
00:48:07,918 --> 00:48:09,458
THEY CAN BE HARD TO PLAN.

1222
00:48:09,453 --> 00:48:11,353
WE PLAN THEM, OBVIOUSLY, AND

1223
00:48:11,355 --> 00:48:12,685
THEN THERE ARE CONCERNS THAT

1224
00:48:12,689 --> 00:48:14,259
NEED TO BE ADDRESSED, AND HOW IT

1225
00:48:14,258 --> 00:48:15,628
NEEDS TO BE TESTED.

1226
00:48:15,626 --> 00:48:17,696
THAT'S WHERE THE UNCERTAINTY

1227
00:48:17,694 --> 00:48:18,594
COMES IN.

1228
00:48:18,595 --> 00:48:22,235
OVER ALL, I CAN TELL YOU THAT IT

1229
00:48:22,232 --> 00:48:25,632
WORKED PRETTY WELL OVER THE LAST

1230
00:48:25,636 --> 00:48:28,476
FEW MONTHS.

1231
00:48:28,472 --> 00:48:30,472
I THINK WE HAVE A GOOD SHOT AT

1232
00:48:30,474 --> 00:48:31,044
IT.

1233
00:48:31,041 --> 00:48:32,581
>> AS FAR AS THE OTHER GOODS.

1234
00:48:32,576 --> 00:48:34,876
IT'S A PRETTY--I WAS GOING TO

1235
00:48:34,878 --> 00:48:36,218
SAY CHALLENGING JOB.

1236
00:48:36,213 --> 00:48:39,713
BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AT HOW MUCH

1237
00:48:39,716 --> 00:48:42,416
COLD RESEARCH IS GOING UP IN

1238
00:48:42,419 --> 00:48:45,489
FREEZERS OR COLD BAGS, AND THEN

1239
00:48:45,489 --> 00:48:47,689
THERE ARE TEMPERATURE VARIATIONS

1240
00:48:47,691 --> 00:48:48,621
AND DURATIONS?

1241
00:48:48,625 --> 00:48:51,295
THERE IS A PROCESS, AND YOU TRY

1242
00:48:51,295 --> 00:48:53,435
TO FIGURE OUT THE ASSETS THAT WE

1243
00:48:53,430 --> 00:48:55,700
FLY UP, WHICH ARE FREEZERS AND

1244
00:48:55,699 --> 00:49:00,509
COLD BAGS, HOW THEY BEST FIT AND

1245
00:49:00,504 --> 00:49:03,274
PACK-WISE, AND AT TIMES WE HAVE

1246
00:49:03,273 --> 00:49:06,473
EXCESS VOLUME, AND WE HAVE

1247
00:49:06,476 --> 00:49:08,916
FULFILLED ALL OF OUR

1248
00:49:08,912 --> 00:49:10,382
REQUIREMENTS AND WE HAD EXCESS

1249
00:49:10,380 --> 00:49:10,910
VOLUME.

1250
00:49:10,914 --> 00:49:14,084
IN THIS CASE WE HAD MORE THAN

1251
00:49:14,084 --> 00:49:15,284
USUAL ICE CREAM PRODUCTS GOING

1252
00:49:15,285 --> 00:49:16,855
UP IN OUR COLD BAGS.

1253
00:49:16,853 --> 00:49:18,323
THEY'LL BE HAPPY.

1254
00:49:18,322 --> 00:49:19,522
THEY'LL BE HAPPY.

1255
00:49:19,523 --> 00:49:21,723
>> SO IT'S NOT SITTING ALONG

1256
00:49:21,725 --> 00:49:27,665
SIDE EXPERIMENT STUFF, TOO?

1257
00:49:27,664 --> 00:49:31,404
>> IF IT WOULD WE WOULD DO ALL

1258
00:49:31,401 --> 00:49:32,701
OF THE PROPER CONTAINMENT.

1259
00:49:32,703 --> 00:49:34,673
>> DID YOU SAY COLD PACKS OR IS

1260
00:49:34,671 --> 00:49:37,741
IT AN ACTUAL FREEZER?

1261
00:49:37,741 --> 00:49:41,841
>> WE HAVE COLD BAGS WHICH WE

1262
00:49:41,845 --> 00:49:45,245
PUT ICE BRICKS, FROZEN BRICKS

1263
00:49:45,248 --> 00:49:47,588
THAT KEEP THE TEMPERATURES IN

1264
00:49:47,584 --> 00:49:55,964
THE COLD BAG COLD.

1265
00:49:55,959 --> 00:49:58,059
>> WE'VE HAD A COUPLE OF OUR

1266
00:49:58,061 --> 00:50:01,031
FREEZERS FAIL, SO THESE MAY BE

1267
00:50:01,031 --> 00:50:02,231
SPARES THAT ARE GOING UP.

1268
00:50:02,232 --> 00:50:05,202
>> WE GO BACK TO THE SECOND ROW.

1269
00:50:05,202 --> 00:50:07,142
>> EXCUSE ME.

1270
00:50:07,137 --> 00:50:08,937
A COUPLE OF TIMES TODAY WE

1271
00:50:08,939 --> 00:50:10,879
MENTIONED THE IMPORTANCE OF LATE

1272
00:50:10,874 --> 00:50:12,544
LOAD TO THE SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH

1273
00:50:12,542 --> 00:50:13,312
MISSION.

1274
00:50:13,310 --> 00:50:15,910
I'M JUST CURIOUS, HANSF YOU CAN

1275
00:50:15,912 --> 00:50:18,282
TALK ABOUT THE OPERATIONAL

1276
00:50:18,281 --> 00:50:18,981
CHALLENGE OF DELIVERING THAT

1277
00:50:18,982 --> 00:50:21,352
CAPABILITY FOR NASA, AND MAYBE,

1278
00:50:21,351 --> 00:50:24,221
PETER, DAN, WHY THAT IS SO

1279
00:50:24,221 --> 00:50:25,691
IMPORTANT TO YOUR WORK?

1280
00:50:25,689 --> 00:50:31,129
>> DO YOU WANT TO GO FIRST?

1281
00:50:31,128 --> 00:50:32,798
>> OKAY, I'LL GO FIRST.

1282
00:50:32,796 --> 00:50:34,196
FROM THE ENGINEERING

1283
00:50:34,197 --> 00:50:36,537
PERSPECTIVE, IT IS BASICALLY A

1284
00:50:36,533 --> 00:50:47,573
CLEAN ROOM--WHAT'S IT CALLED?

1285
00:50:47,577 --> 00:50:49,847
WHERE YOU BASICALLY PASS THINGS

1286
00:50:49,846 --> 00:50:50,346
ON.

1287
00:50:50,347 --> 00:50:58,727
AND IF YOU LOAD THE PARTICULAR

1288
00:50:58,722 --> 00:51:02,462
TO LAUD ON TO DRAGON, AND THEN

1289
00:51:02,459 --> 00:51:03,829
YOUD INTO TO MOVE THINGS AROUND,

1290
00:51:03,827 --> 00:51:14,207
THAT'S THE MAIN ENGINEERING

1291
00:51:14,204 --> 00:51:14,934
CHALLENGE.

1292
00:51:14,938 --> 00:51:16,338
>> IF YOU'RE STUDYING A YEAST

1293
00:51:16,339 --> 00:51:18,779
YOU WANT TO PUT IT IN AS LATE AS

1294
00:51:18,775 --> 00:51:23,685
CLOSE TO LAUNCH AS YOU CAN.

1295
00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:26,580
WE TALKED ABOUT USING A COLD BAG

1296
00:51:26,583 --> 00:51:28,183
THAT MAY BE COOLER.

1297
00:51:28,185 --> 00:51:30,825
THAT'S GOT A LIFETIME UNTIL THE

1298
00:51:30,821 --> 00:51:32,091
PHASE CHANGES AND IT'S NOT

1299
00:51:32,088 --> 00:51:34,028
KEEPING IT COLD ANY MORE.

1300
00:51:34,024 --> 00:51:39,694
ANOTHER EXAMPLE IS THE ROOT

1301
00:51:39,696 --> 00:51:40,196
MISSION.

1302
00:51:40,197 --> 00:51:42,597
WE HAVE TO LOAD THEM LATE IN THE

1303
00:51:42,599 --> 00:51:43,299
FLOW.

1304
00:51:43,300 --> 00:51:44,430
THAT'S ANOTHER REASON WHY WE

1305
00:51:44,434 --> 00:51:47,174
WOULDN'T WANT TO HAVE LAUNCH AND

1306
00:51:47,170 --> 00:51:47,740
LOITERING.

1307
00:51:47,737 --> 00:51:48,977
BECAUSE THEY HAVE A CERTAIN

1308
00:51:48,972 --> 00:51:50,742
AMOUNT OF FOOD IN THOSE

1309
00:51:50,740 --> 00:51:51,580
TRANSPORTERS.

1310
00:51:51,575 --> 00:51:55,215
THEY'RE TRANSPORTED MORE

1311
00:51:55,212 --> 00:51:55,912
DENSELY.

1312
00:51:55,912 --> 00:51:57,252
YOU HAVE TO THINK ABOUT THE

1313
00:51:57,247 --> 00:51:59,387
EXPLORATION OF YOUR SCIENCE.

1314
00:51:59,382 --> 00:52:06,092
IF YOU HAVE THE PLANT GROWTH

1315
00:52:06,089 --> 00:52:09,689
EXPERIMENT IS IMPORTANT TO YOU,

1316
00:52:09,693 --> 00:52:11,993
BUT YET IT GROWS THREE TIMES

1317
00:52:11,995 --> 00:52:14,835
FASTER ON THE GROUND THAN IN

1318
00:52:14,831 --> 00:52:15,401
SPACE.

1319
00:52:15,398 --> 00:52:17,498
>> DO YOU HAVE A SENSE OF WHAT

1320
00:52:17,501 --> 00:52:28,441
THE TIME BEFORE LAUNCH WOULD BE?

1321
00:52:28,445 --> 00:52:30,745
>> IN TERMS OF TIMELINE?

1322
00:52:30,747 --> 00:52:31,217
I DON'T KNOW.

1323
00:52:31,214 --> 00:52:42,924
IT'S A TREMENDOUS CAPABILITY.

1324
00:52:42,926 --> 00:52:44,826
THAT'S WHERE WE DO ALL THE

1325
00:52:44,828 --> 00:52:46,628
PACKING, AND WE CARRY THOSE OUT

1326
00:52:46,630 --> 00:52:47,560
IN ADVANCE.

1327
00:52:47,564 --> 00:52:49,164
LITERALLY RIGHT UP TO THE PAD.

1328
00:52:49,165 --> 00:52:50,835
AND THEY HAVE AN AIR LOCK THAT

1329
00:52:50,834 --> 00:52:52,904
IS ACTUALLY, YOU KNOW, THE WATCH

1330
00:52:52,903 --> 00:52:55,873
IS OPEN TO THE DRAGON, AND THE

1331
00:52:55,872 --> 00:53:03,582
GUYS ARE JUST BAKLEY BOLTING,

1332
00:53:03,580 --> 00:53:06,080
HOOKING UP UMBILICALS.

1333
00:53:06,082 --> 00:53:08,722
EVERYTHING IS NICE, COOL AND

1334
00:53:08,718 --> 00:53:09,188
FRESH.

1335
00:53:09,185 --> 00:53:10,655
HOW THEY'VE CHOREOGRAPHED THAT

1336
00:53:10,654 --> 00:53:12,694
OVER TIME HAS BEEN PHENOMENAL.

1337
00:53:12,689 --> 00:53:16,089
I WOULD EVEN ASAY ON THE

1338
00:53:16,092 --> 00:53:17,092
RESURGEON AS WELL.

1339
00:53:17,093 --> 00:53:19,333
WHEN WE GET TO THE PARK IT

1340
00:53:19,329 --> 00:53:21,169
DOESN'T TAKE A LONG TIME FOR US

1341
00:53:21,164 --> 00:53:23,704
TO ACTUALLY GET IT OFF THE

1342
00:53:23,700 --> 00:53:26,700
DRAGON, AND INTO A PRINCIPLE

1343
00:53:26,703 --> 00:53:29,543
INVESTIGATORS' HANDS RIGHT THERE

1344
00:53:29,539 --> 00:53:30,269
AT THE FORT.

1345
00:53:30,273 --> 00:53:40,083
THE A GREAT APE ABILITY.

1346
00:53:40,083 --> 00:53:41,653
>> THANKS, STEPHEN CLARK, ONE

1347
00:53:41,651 --> 00:53:43,791
MORE FOR HANS.

1348
00:53:43,787 --> 00:53:46,787
ONCE YOU DO GET PAD 39 A

1349
00:53:46,790 --> 00:53:48,730
AVAILABLE TO GET STARTED ON THE

1350
00:53:48,725 --> 00:53:49,425
HEAVY.

1351
00:53:49,426 --> 00:53:51,066
WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO DO WITH THE

1352
00:53:51,061 --> 00:53:51,491
PAD?

1353
00:53:51,494 --> 00:53:53,434
YOU SAID THERE WERE A COUPLE OF

1354
00:53:53,430 --> 00:53:54,300
THINGS.

1355
00:53:54,297 --> 00:53:59,867
IS IT THE STRONG BACK?

1356
00:53:59,869 --> 00:54:01,309
>> ONE DIFFERENCE IS YOU HAVE

1357
00:54:01,304 --> 00:54:04,774
THREE HOLES ON THE LAUNCH MOUNT,

1358
00:54:04,774 --> 00:54:11,084
AND NOT JUST ONE.

1359
00:54:11,081 --> 00:54:14,181
THAT HAS TO BE FALCON HEAVY.

1360
00:54:14,184 --> 00:54:16,924
THE THINGS THAT ARE SLIGHTLY

1361
00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:18,520
ARRANGED, THEY HAVE TO BE

1362
00:54:18,521 --> 00:54:22,221
INTEGRATED, AND TESTED

1363
00:54:22,225 --> 00:54:28,295
FUNCTIONALLY OBVIOUSLY MORE

1364
00:54:28,298 --> 00:54:28,868
FLUID.

1365
00:54:28,865 --> 00:54:30,865
THEY HAVE BEEN BROKEN DOWN AND

1366
00:54:30,867 --> 00:54:32,437
ALL THE ELEMENTS ARE READY TO

1367
00:54:32,435 --> 00:54:32,865
GO.

1368
00:54:32,869 --> 00:54:35,309
IT'S A MATTER OF PUTTING IT

1369
00:54:35,305 --> 00:54:40,115
TOGETHER, AND TESTING THAT IT'S

1370
00:54:40,110 --> 00:54:41,510
FUNCTIONING PROPERLILY.

1371
00:54:41,511 --> 00:54:43,011
>> I BELIEVE YOU HAVE A QUESTION

1372
00:54:43,013 --> 00:54:47,953
ON THE THIRD ROW?

1373
00:54:47,951 --> 00:54:50,121
>> WE'LL COME BACK TO THE FIRST

1374
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:50,650
ROW.

1375
00:54:50,654 --> 00:54:53,294
>> I WAS WONDERING MAYBE THE

1376
00:54:53,289 --> 00:54:55,159
QUESTION WAS ANSWERED, BUT IS

1377
00:54:55,158 --> 00:54:57,098
THERE ANYTHING USED ON THE

1378
00:54:57,093 --> 00:54:58,733
FALCONINE THAT IS GOING TO

1379
00:54:58,728 --> 00:55:21,618
LAUNCH TOMORROW?

1380
00:55:21,618 --> 00:55:23,318
>> ONCE 40 IS BACK UP AND

1381
00:55:23,319 --> 00:55:29,389
RUNNING, ARE YOU ABLE TO LAUNCH

1382
00:55:29,392 --> 00:55:31,862
39 A AND 40 OR ALL SHIFTING TO

1383
00:55:31,861 --> 00:55:33,161
39 A.

1384
00:55:33,163 --> 00:55:34,463
>> I HEAR I COULDN'T QUESTION.

1385
00:55:34,464 --> 00:55:35,194
IT'S AN EXCELLENT QUESTION, BUT

1386
00:55:35,198 --> 00:55:36,768
I DON'T THINK I HAVE AN ANSWER

1387
00:55:36,766 --> 00:55:37,766
FOR YOU TODAY.

1388
00:55:37,767 --> 00:55:38,967
IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO

1389
00:55:38,968 --> 00:55:40,968
WORK OUT ON HOW WE SPLIT THE

1390
00:55:40,970 --> 00:55:43,570
MISSIONS AND WHERE WE GO FROM

1391
00:55:43,573 --> 00:55:44,143
WHAT PAD.

1392
00:55:44,140 --> 00:55:47,210
IT'S A REALLY GOOD QUESTION.

1393
00:55:47,210 --> 00:55:48,340
>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR

1394
00:55:48,344 --> 00:55:49,614
JOINING US TODAY.

1395
00:55:49,612 --> 00:55:50,582
THAT'S ALL THE TIME THAT WE

1396
00:55:50,580 --> 00:55:51,280
HAVE.

1397
00:55:51,281 --> 00:55:53,051
THE LAUNCH IS SCHEDULED FOR

1398
00:55:53,049 --> 00:55:56,449
TOMORROW AT 12:30-1:00 P.M.

1399
00:55:56,453 --> 00:55:57,623
NASA TELEVISION COVERAGE WILL

1400
00:55:57,620 --> 00:55:58,690
BEGIN AT NOON.

1401
00:55:58,688 --> 00:56:00,488
UNTIL THEN YOU CAN FOLLOW MORE

1402
00:56:00,490 --> 00:56:09,530
