MANAGER OF MA IS A COMMERCIAL
CREW PROGRAM.
JOHN VICE PRESIDENT AND PROGRAM
MANAGER OF THE WOULDING
COMMERCIAL CREW PROGRAM.
AND JOHN HE WILL UPON CLIEF
OPERATING OFFICER OF UNITED
LAUNCH ALLIANCE.
AND JOEL, DEPUTY MAN GET
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION
PROGRAM PAT FORRESTER CHIEF
ASTRONAUT OFFICE OF THAT IS A
JOHNSON SPACE CENTER.
AND WILL LAWN WEATHER OFFICE

5, 4, SERVICE COMMERCIAL PROGRAM
SO O RETURN TO OUR NATION THE
CAPABILITY TO FLY OUR ASTRONAUTS
TO INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION.
>> 3, 2, 1.
THERE SOMETHING ABOUT GOINGS
GOING TO SPACE THAT'S ALWAYS
BEEN SPECIAL.
HERE AN OPPORTUNITY TO GO BACK
AGAIN AND THERE A DIFFERENT KIND
OF A CRAFT.
>> LIFT OFF.
IT IS PROVIDE US THE OPPORTUNITY
TO HAVE MORE ASTRONAUTS IN
SPACE.
GOING TO FURTHER OUR ABILITY FOR
KNOWLEDGE.
MICRO GRAVITY.
>> FACT WE ABLE TO PARTNER WITH
COMMERCIAL INDUSTRIES, ALLOWS TO
FULFILL THAT MISSION TO BE WE
CAN WORK TOGETHER.
THERE IS LARGER GROUP OF US THAT
ARE DREAMING, THAT POTENTIALLY
COULD HAVE A RISE SOME DAY AND
BE WORKING IN SPACE.
FOLKS ALL OVER THE WORLD ARE
GOING TO BE WATCHING THIS
BECAUSE WE ARE HAVING NEW
TECHNOLOGY MAKING SPACECRAFT
BETTER SMARTER.
AND PAVING THE WAY FOR THE
FUTURE.
>> SO THANK YOU FOR COMING.
I AM REALLY LOOK FORWARD TO THE
MAIDEN VOYAGE THE STAR LINER
THIS FRIDAY.
THIS FIRST MISSION, WILL BE OUR
WRIT CRAWL ON CREW DEMONSTRATION
MISSION.
DESIGNED TO VALIDATE END TO END
SYSTEMS.
I ALWAYS SAY THESE
DEMONSTRATIONS ARE A GIFT.
THEY GIVE US THE OPPORTUNITY TO
REALLY SEE HOW THEY INTEGRATED
SYSTEM WORKS.
AND THROUGH ALL FACES OF FLIGHT,
BUT ALSO MORE IMPORTANTLY IT
HELPS AS A JOINT TEAM TO FIGURE
OUT HOW WE ARE GOING TO WORK
TOGETHER.
AND GIVE OURSELF READY FOR OUR
CREWS MISSION COMING UP.
IF WE ARE BLESSED WITH GREAT
WEATHER I LOOK FORWARD TO A
MISSION EARLY FRIDAY MORGUE AND
THEN COMING TO THE INTERNATIONAL
SPACE STATION ON SATURDAY, OUR
DEMONSTRATION OBJECTIVES WILL BE
ACCOMPLISHED WITH ABOUT WEEK ON
ORBIT, AND BUT WE KNOW IT IS
BUSY PLACE AND WE WILL BE
WORKING WITH JOEL AND KIRK AND
THEIR TEAM.
WITH THEM ON THE RIGHT TIME
RETURN.
I WANT TO LET JOHN THROUGH
MISSION SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES.
>> CAT THIEF THANK YOU VERY
MUCH.
>> IT IS JUST AN INCREDIBLY
PROUD AND HUMBLING TO HERE THIS
WEEK.
IT IS REALLY COMBINATION OF
YEARS OF REALLY HARD WORK BY THE
INTEGRATED NASA AND UAL TEAMS.
SO THIS IS REALLY SETTING UP TO
INCREDIBLE WEEK AND I WILL GO TO
NEXT CHART IF YOU LOOK DID HE
MISSION SPECIFIC FLIGHT
OBJECTIVES FOR THIS FLIGHT.
STARTING WITH FIRST ONE, WE WILL
BE POURING OVER ALL OF THIS
SPACECRAFT AND LAWN VEHICLE DATA
GOING THROUGH EVERY SYSTEM
MAKING SURE THAT SPACE CRAFT IS
SOLID AND ALL OF ITS SUBSYSTEM
AREAS ONE REAL KEY THING WE LOOK
AT ACROSS THE ENTIRE FLIGHT IS
ALL OF THE SEPARATION PLANES
STARTING WITH THE VEHICLE
SEPARATION.
AND BEFORE THAT THE COVER.
BUT WE GET READY TO REENTER AND
START TO PLUG FOR EACH SHIELD
BUYING AND ALL OF THOSE
SEPARATION PLAINS ARE VERY
IMPORTANT MAKE SURE THESE ARE
ALL SOLID.
AND DON'T BUDGET GIVE US ANY
TROUBLE.
WE HAVE ONE KEY OBJECTIVES TO
DEMONSTRATING, KEEP THE ABILITY
OF DOCK WITH INTERNATIONAL SPACE
STATION.
EVAL LAW EIGHT THE PERFORMANCE
OF DONING SYSTEM AS KATHY
MENTION WE HAD WILL BE UP FOR
SEVEN DAYS.
WHEN TIME TO COME HOME IT IS
ACTUALLY PRETTY QUICK TRIP FROM
UNDOCKING, TO LANDING ON GROUNDS
AS ONLY ACTION OVER FOUR HOURS
OH, WE WILL BE EVALUATING OF THE
SYSTEM PARAMETERS MAKING SURE WE
GET DEAL AND EVALUATE ALL OF THE
REENTRY AND LACKS PERFORMANCE WE
REALLY AS IMPORTANT AS ALL OF
THE SPACECRAFT HARDWARE SYSTEMS,
AND LAWN VEHICLE SYSTEMS, IS
INTEGRATED PERFORM AVENLTS
LAUNCH THE FLIGHT AND THE LACKS
RECOVERY TEAMS.
MAKING SURE THAT WE HAVE REALLY
SOUND PROSELVES AND PROCEDURES
AND TEAM REALLY READY TO MOVE
FORWARD AND GO INTO THE CREW
FLIGHT TEST.
SO WE ARE LOOKING KATHY
MENTIONED FOR EXCITING FRIDAY
MORNING 66:30, WE SHOULD LAUNCH.
ALL THINGS GO WELL WE WILL BE
DOCKING ABOUT 8:27 THE FOLLOWING
MORNING.
WE EXPECT OPEN HATCH WITHIN 24
HOURS OF WHEN WE DOCK AND THEN,
ON THE NIGHT LATE KNIFE THE 27TH
WE WILL BE UNDOCKING AND AS I
MENTIONED TARGETING 28TH LACKS
OF 3:48 IN THE MORNING.
SO LOOKING FORWARD TO A REALLY
SHORT QUICK AND SUCCESSFUL
MISSION.
>> AS FAR SPARES CRAFT GOES ON
WE ARE TRACKING NO SPACECRAFT
ANOT LEASESRY NOW THE SO
SPACECRAFT IN REALLY GOOD SHAPE.
AND, AND I WILL TURN IT OVER TO
JOHN TO TALK ABOUT WHERE WE ARE
AT THE LAWN THE VEHICLE BUT
REALLY COMPLIMENT JOHN AND HIS
ENTIRE TEAM.
ONE OF THE FIRST STRATEGIC
DECISIONS WE MADE IN COMMERCIAL
CREW PROGRAM WAS SELECTION OF
THE AT LAST FIVE AT OUR WATCH
VEHICLE.
FOR ITS SAFETY AND MISSION
SUCCESS RECORD AND THAT TEAM
JUST PROVING IT EVERY NIGHT SO I
WILL TURN IT OVER TO YOU, JOHN.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU, JOHN.
>> I CAN TELL YOU THAT THE
UNITED LAUNCH TEAM IS REALLY
THRILLED TO BE PART OF THIS NEWS
WE LAUNCH A LOT OF IMPORTANT PAY
LOADS TO NATIONAL SECURITY AND
OTHER THINGS BUT THERE JUST
SOMETHING SPECIAL ABOUT LAWNING
HUMANS AND TO BE PART OF THE
PROGRAM THAT'S GOING TO DO THAT
IS VERY BIG DEAL FOR US.
WE ARE HONORED TO PARTNER WITH
THEM AND APPRECIATE THE
OPPORTUNITIES I WANT TALK ABOUT
THE CONFIGURE RAVINGS THIS THE
LAST ROCKET.
FIRST OF ALL, IT HAS BEEN HAS
JUST STORE READ HISTRY.
THE LAST TIME WE LAWNED CAPSULE
WITH HUMANS IN IT WAS 56 YEARS
AGO WHEN GORDEN COOPER WAS
LAUNCHED PHASE SEVEN IN '63.
JOHN GLENN WAS LAUNCHED FIRST
HUMAN MISSION ON AT LAST ROCKET
IN '62.
THERE BEEN 661 LAUNCHES IN THE
VEHICLES.
IN AND THIS 818 LAWN OF
OF THE CURRENT VERSION THE LAST
FIVE.
AND SO JUST GOT LONG TORRYED
HISTORY.
THE CONFIGURATIONS OF THIS
VEHICLE IS NOVEMBER 22ND.
THE N STANDS FOR NO FEARING
MOMENT OUR VEHICLES EITHER FIVE
METRE OTHER METRE FARING, BUT
THE CAPSULE OF COURSE FLIGHTS
WITHOUT A FARING.
SECOND TWO IS SOLID ROIKT
BOATERS THAT ARE ON SIDES OF THE
VEHICLE TO INCREASE THE LIFT
CAPABILITY.
AND THEN THE LAST NUMBER IN THAT
IS TWO ENGINES ON CENT TAR
STAGE.
THERE IS THE FIRST TIME DUAL
ENGINE LAST FLOWN ON AT LAST
FIVE VEHICLE PREVIOUS VERSION
HAD DUAL ENGINES WE HAVE FLOWN
THAT BEFORE BUT NOT ON AT LAST
FIVE.
SOME SORE THINGS YOU UNIQUE
ABOUT THIS VEHICLE THERE IS IS
AN ARROW SKIRT THAT COMES DOWN
FROM CAPSULE THAT'S TO WORK THE
SO THAT WE DON'T CREATE A LOT OF
APPROXIMATE AS WE GO THROUGH
THAT.
OF COURSE WE HAVE ADDED CREW
ACCESS TO FOR PAD.
SO WE CAN -- SO JOHN AND HIS
TEAM GET TO THE HATCH.
AND THERE IS A SYSTEM THAT'S
PART OF AT LAST CALLED EMERGENCY
DETECTION SYSTEM FOR THE CREW
MISSION THAT WILL FLY PASSIVE
MODE ON THIS FLIGHT BUT WHETHER
WE HAVE CREW ON BOARD WE WILL BE
ABLE TO DETECT IF THERE ANY
ISSUES WITH ROCKET AND LET THE
STAR LINER KNOW SO THAT ABORT
CAN BE EXECUTED.
THOSE ARE KIND OF FLEW AND
UNIQUE THINGS FOR THAT.
AS JOE MENTION WE HAD HAD LAUNCH
FOR VENUS THIS MORNING WE ARE
TALKING FORWARD. TO FRIDAY
MORNING AND HEARING THE WORDS GO
AT LAST, GO STASH LINER.
THANK YOU.
>> WE WILL TALK ABOUT SPACE
STATION.
THANK YOU, JOHN.
WELCOME GREEN PRE LAWN PRESS
BRIEFING.
ON BEHALF THE I.S.S. I LIKE CON
GLTD ULATE BOEING TEAMS AND
COMMERCIAL.
.
>> FOR ALL OF WORK THAT'S BEEN
DONE TO GET US TO WHERE WE ARE
TODAY.
SITTING HERE LAWN MINUS THREE
DAYS, TALKING ABOUT THE FINAL
PREPARATIONS ANOTHER A VEHICLE A
TEST VEHICLE THAT WILL
EVENTUALLY TAKE CREW MEMBERS TO
THE INTERNATIONAL SPACES STATION
PUTS SMILE ON ALL OF OUR FACES
AND WE ARE EXCITED AND HAPPY TO
BE HERE.
YOU KNOW NEXT YEAR, AND IN
NOVEMBER WE WILL CELEBRATE TWO
YEARS OF CONTINOUS PRESENCE ON
BOARDS THE I.S.S.
AND, THE BOEING SPACECRAFT ALONG
WITH THE SPACE X SPACE CRAFTS
WILL JOIN THEM NOT ONLY
DELIVERING HUMANS TO THE
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION BUT
DELIVERING SCIENCE AND RESEARCH.
RESEARCH AND SIGH ANSWER THAT WE
DO TODAY IN LOWER ORBIT THAT
BENEFITS ALL OF HUMANITY HERE
THAT ALLOWS US AS TEST BED FOR
EXPLORATION MISSIONS GO PAST
LOWER AR.
>> WE LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS
MISSION ON FRIDAY.
AND HE LOOKING FORWARD TO FUTURE
MISSIONS WITH THAT I WILL HAND
THERE OVER TO PAT.
>> THANK YOU.
WELL, FIRST I WANT TO SAY IT IS
ALWAYS JOY TO COME BACK TO
KENNEDY SPACE CENTER AND CAPE.
AND EVEN AFTER YOU WILL THESE
YEARS, IT NEVER GETS OLD AND IN
FACT SOMETIMES I THINK IT GETS
BETTER.
SO IT IS GREAT TO BE HERE.
IT IS ALSO PRIVILEGE TO BE HERE
TO REPRESENT THE ENTIRE
ASTRONAUT CORP WE WILLER THAT
SAID THAT THERE ARE NO
PASSENGERS OR PEOPLE HUMANS ON
THIS PARTICULAR LAUNCH.
I WILL APOLOGIZE IN ADVANCE TO
ROSY, BUT ALL ALONG WE ARE
TRAINED TO LOOK THROUGH THE LENS
OF THE OPERATOR.
AND OF THE ASTRONAUT AND SO
EVERY STEP OF THE WAY THAT'S
BEEN OUR FOCUS AS WE MOVED HARD
TO ANSWER UNCREWED LAUNCH.
WE CONSIDER THIS A DRESS
REHEARSAL FOR CFT.
AND, I DON'T THINK THERE ANY ONE
IN OFFICE THAT IS GONE ABOUT
THEIR WORK THEY HAVEN'T THOUGHT
ABOUT CHRIS AND THE NICOLE AND
MIKE.
AND, FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT DON'T
KNOW THOSE NAMES YOU MIGHT KNOW
THEM BETTER AS THAT'S OUR CREW
FOR CFT I WAS HAVING COFFEE
SONNY WILLIAMSES THIS MORNING
SHE REMINDED ME THAT ACTUALLY,
THIS VEHICLE HERE IS THE ONE
THESE WILL FLY WITH JOSH
FOLLOWING CFT.
AND LAST THING SHE SAID TO ME
WAS, MAKE SURE YOU TELL THEM TOP
BRING IT BACK IN GOOD SHAPE.
SO I THINK THAT WILL -- WE WILL
DO THAT.
THE OTHER THANK I HAD CHANCE TO
DO WAS COMMUNICATE WITH OUR CRY
ON ORBIT.
THAT GOING TO ON RECEIVING END
OF THIS HISTORIC FLIGHT.
AND, THEY SENT QUOTE DOWN AND
THINK I JUST A WANT TO CLOSE
WITH THAT USE THEIR WORDS, WE
ARE EXCITED TO WELCOME ROSY AND
BOEING STAR LINER TO THE ISS AS
WE CONTINUE RAMPING OUR CRUDE
LAUNCH OPERATIONS IN WEECHL LOOK
FORWARD AS AN AGENT WORDS TALLY
STAR LINER.
CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL INVOLVED
BRING THIS MILESTONE TO
FRUITION.
THANKS.
>> WELL, IT IS MY HONOR TO BE
HERE TO PLAY SMALL ROLE MAKING
SURE WEATHER IS GOOD FOR LAUNCH
ON FRIDAY MORNING AND I HAVE
SOME FAIRLY POSITIVE NEWS TO
GIVE YOU ALL TODAY.
BUTZ OUR MISSION AT THE 459
WEATHER SQUAD HERE TO ENSURE
THAT EVERYBODY IS SAFE DURING
ALL LAWN OPERATION HERE AT THE
CAPE AND THAT'S EVALUATING NINE
LIGHTNING LAWN CRITERIA TO
ENSURE THAT ROCKET IS BOTH SAFE
FROM NATURAL LIGHTNING BUT
TRIGGERED LIGHTNING AS WELL.
AND, ALL THINGS CONSIDERED
THINGS LOOK PRETTY GOOD.
BUT WE ALSO HAVE MONITORING SOME
CONSTRAINTS FROM THE VEHICLE
SIDE OF THINGS FROM AT LAST FIVE
VEHICLE INCLUDING WING
CONSTRAINTS AND TEMPERATURE
CONSTRAINTS BUTS THEY ALSO LOOK
FAIRLY GOOD.
SO, WITH THAT SAID IF WE TAKE A
LOOK AT SATELLITE IMAGERY RIGHT
NOW IT IS FAIRLY DISTUSHGDZ
WEATHER PATTERN.
BUT THANK GOD TODAY TUESDAY.
WE STILL HAVE SEVERAL DAYS UNTIL
LAUNCH SO SO HERE WE STRONG COLD
FRONT OUT OVER EASTERN GULF OF
MEXICO.
THAT'S HEADED IN OUR GENERAL
DIRECTION AND GOING TO MAKE FOR
YOU SNOW STORMY AFTERNOON HERE
AT THE CAPE.
BUT THAT'S OKAY WE HAVE TIME TO
GET THIS COLD FRONT OUT OF HERE.
IT IS EXPECTED TO MOVER FLEW
OVERNIGHT.
OUR BIGGEST CONCERN BEHIND THAT
IS STRONG AREA HIGH PRESSURE
THAT'S GOING TO LEAD INCREASED
WINDS FOR NEXT 3 TO 4 DAYS ALL
OF THE WAY THROUGH SATURDAY.
TOMORROW WILL BE WINDIEST DAY NO
DOUBT.
DAY ON THURSDAY FRIDAY THOSE
WINDS WILL SUBSIDE A LITTLE BIT.
CLOSER TO ABOUT 15 TO 2 BUT I
LUCKILY BELOW ANY CONSTRAINT
THAT WE NEED TO BE CONCERNED.
DRY AIR BEHIND THE FRONT SHOULD
HELP SHOWER COVERAGE TO MINIMUM
SO DESPITE IT LOOKING SO BAD
RIGHT NOW THAT'S FRONT WILL
CLEAR DOWN TOWARDS SOUTH FLORIDA
BY WEEK'S END AND ALL WE WILL
LOOK FOR ISOLATED SHOWERS
PUSHING IN OFF ATLANTIC WATERS
IF ONE PUSH ON SHOCKS SAY
DURINGS COUNT, IT COULD PRODUCE
WINDS OF AROUND 25 TO 30.
WHICH IS NEARING SOME OF THOSE
CONSTRAINTS THAT I WAS
MENTIONING TO YOU EARLIER.
BUT ODDS OF HAVING ONE ISOLATED
SHOWERS ACTUALLY PUSH OVER THE
LAUNCH PAD RIGHT NOW APPEARS
VERY LOW.
WHICH GOOD US IN IF WE LOOK LAWN
FORECAST, RIGHT NOW, AGAIN
NOTICE THE BREEZY WINDS.
THEY WILL GUMS TO 2 TO 25 MILES
PER HOUR TEMPERATURE WILL BE
COOL LINED THAT COLD FRONTS THAT
I MENTIONED EARLIER TOMORROW
WILL BE COOLEST DAY.
IT WILL STRUGGLE TO GET OUT OF
50S AND LOWER 60 s BEFORE
TEMPERATURES SLOWLY WARM FOR
REST OF THE WEEK DURING LAWN
COUNSEL OUR TEMPERATURE WILL BE
LOW SIX 12340Z WE HAVE
PROBABILITY VIOLATION TWO
PERCENT OR 880 PERCENT GO WHICH
GOOD NEWS.
AGAIN PRIMARILY CONCERNS FOR
TOWEL WILL MONITORING THOSE
ISOLATED SHOWERS AND LOW TOPPED
CLOUDS PUSHING IN OFF THE
ATLANTIC WATERS BUT ALSO AS I
MENGSDZ AT LAST FIVE CONSTRAINTS
FOR WINDS IN CASE ANY OF THOSE
SHOWERS PUSH OVER HEAD AND WE
GET THOSE GUSTS EXCESS OF 25.
WE WILL MONITORING FOR THAT.
NOW, WHAT YOU DIDN'T SEE IT ON
SATELLITE IS YET ANOTHER WEATHER
DISTURBANCE THAT'S GOING TO BE
APPROACHING OVER THE WEEKEND.
THAT'S SYSTEM GOING TO CROSS
GULF SOME TIMES DURINGS DAY ON
SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY THAT'S
GOING TO LEAD MORE WEATHER HERE
IN CENTRAL FLORIDA.
LATE IN DAY ON SATURDAY AND
SUNDAY SO THE GOOD FLAWS FOR
SATURDAY MORNING THINGS LOOK
FAIRLY BENIGN IN WE TAKE LOOK AT
THE 2-HOUR DELAY FORECAST WE
HAVE AGAIN GUSTY EAST NORTH
WINDS, AROUND 18 TO 2 MILES PER
HOUR SO AGAIN BELOW THROWS
CONSTRAINTS TEMPERATURE FEW
GREASE WARM.
BUT GIVEN UNCERTAINTY WITH
SECOND DISTURBANCE WE HAVE
PROBABILITY OF VIOLATION RIGHT
NOW OF AROUND 30 PERCENT FOR
SIMILAR RULES THAT I MENTIONED
EARLIER INCLUDING CLOUD RULE AND
GROUNDS WIND CONSTRAINTS SO ALL
THINGS CONSIDERED, THINGS ARE
LOOK FAIRLY GOOD FOR THE WEEK'S
END ONLY CONCERNS OF COURSE AS I
MENTIONED BEFORE, ANY OF THOSE
LOW TOPPED SHOWERS PUSHING OFF
ATLANTIC WATERS.
BUT ONE OTHER NOTE IS THAT WITH
A LAUNCH AT 636 RIGHT NOW FOR
FRIDAY MORNING THAT'S ABOUT 30
MINUTES BEFORE SUNRISE.
WHICH SHOULD MAKE FOR VERY
PICTURE-LIKE LAWN IF CAN I
PROVIDE YOU GUYS WITH SOME CLEAR
SKIES.
SO GOOD NEWS IS THAT WITH IT
BEING STILL DARK NEAR SURFACE
SUN WILL BE COMING OFF THE LOSS
WE EXPECT SOME GREAT IMAGES TO
COME OUT OF FRIDAY MORNING'S
LAWN THE SAY THE.
>> CORRECT.
>> THAT MIGHT BE A LITTLE TOO
EARLY TO GIVES PICTURE IMAGES WE
MIGHT BE SEEING FRIDAY MORNING.
HAPPY TO BE PART OF THE HE TEAM
AND THANK YOU VERY MUCH
>> THANK YOU EACH OF OUR PANEL
MEMBERS.
WE DO OPEN UP FOR QUESTIONS.
WE HAVE SEVERAL REPORTERS ON
PHONE BUT WE ARE GOING START
NEITHER ROOM.
SO JUST REMIND DOOR PLEASE RAISE
YOUR HANDS IN YOU HAVE A
QUESTION WE HAVE MICRO PHONE
WAIT FOR THAT TO COME TO YOU AND
THEN STATE YOUR NAME AFFILIATION
AND WHOM YOU ARE DIRECTING YOUR
QUESTION TO.
SO WE WILL START IN CORNER WITH
MARSHA.
>> WE REALLY NOW SEEM TO ON CUSP
OF LAUNCHING PEOPLE INTO SPACE
AGAIN FROM HERE.
AND, DO YOU THEIR EXCITEMENT
BUILDING PONG YOUR TEAMS?
I MEAN IT MUST BE EMOTIONAL
MOMENT RIGHT NOW AND CAN YOU
TOUCH OPINIONS SIGNIFICANCE OF
WHAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO DO ONCE
CREWS STARTS LAUNCHING AGAIN
FROM HERE.
>> I MEAN IT IS REALLY.
IT IS INCREDIBLY INSPIRATIONAL.
THE TEAM IS EXCITED.
I THINK IT REALLY PEAKED WITH
THIS SUCCESSFUL TEMPTED BEEN A
MONTHS AGO.
AND HAVING THAT TEST ROLLING
RIGHT INTO THE FINAL
PREPARATIONSES OF THIS
SPACECRAFT LOOK AT SIGNIFICANT
PROGRESS WE HAVE MADE ON THE
SPACECRAFT FLIGHT TEST, GETTING
THROUGH THE VAST MAJORITY OF ALL
OF THE DESIGN VERLT IF I
INDICATION WORK SO TEAM REALLY
HAS THIS HUGE SENSE
ACCOMPLISHMENT WELL LEARNED.
AND REALLY READY THEY HAVE
WORKED THROUGH THAT AND THAT
WENT WELL.
THEY ARE REALLY READY FOR GOOD
UNCRUDE FLIGHT TEST AND THEN
FIRST PART OF NEXT YEAR, THINGS
GO WELL ON INCREW FLIGHT TEST WE
WILL BE ABLE TO GO FLEW CREW
FLUTE.
>> YES.
I MEAN, WE HAVE PART OF OUR TEAM
HAVE BEEN WORKING TO KIND PUT
PIECES TOGETHER TO GET TO THIS
MISSION OVER LAST 6 OR 7 YEARS.
RIGHT?
AND, HUGE ACCOMPLISHMENT.
I DON'T THINGS SOME TIMES KIND
OF IN MIST OF DOING ALL OF THE
WORK YOU DON'T STEP BACK AND
LOOK AT WHAT YOU HAVE
ACCOMPLISHED.
AND, WHETHER PEOPLE SIGH KNOW
VEHICLES REALLY BECOMES REAL.
ALL OF THOSE DISCUSSIONS ALL OF
THAT HARD WORK ALL OF THAT
VERIFICATION ALL OF THAT WORKING
THROUGH ANALYSIS AND MAKING
SURIZE ARE TS ARE CROSSED.
IT IS CLOSED VEHICLE READY GO
FLY AND SO, YOU KNOW, AND,
WITHIN NASA WE END TO GET OUR
FLIGHT READY NIECE REVIEWS
ALMOST LIKE THAT'S HUGE
ACCOMPLISHMENT BUT THAT'S REASON
US GETTING THROUGH THAT LAST
WEEK WAS THAT IS THE HURLED FOR
US TO THEN BE ABLE TO GO WORK
THROUGH THIS AND MOVE IN YOUR
MISSIONS.
OUR TEAM SEES THIS AS REAL STEP
TOWARDS GETTING TO OUR CREWED
FLIGHTS.
AND, HUGE TON OF WORK AND WE
REALLY LOOK FORWARD TO THE
MISSION.
REALLY LOOK FORWARD TO THIS
GREAT PARTNERSHIP THAT WE HAVE
HAD WOULDING ASK GETTING THIS
MISSION DONE.
>> ALL RIGHT.
JUST BEHIND MARSHA.
>> YES.
HI.
>> CAN YOU, TALK US LITTLE BIT
ARROW SKIRT AND, WHAT WOULD
HAPPEN TO ROCKET IF YOU DIDN'T
HAVEN'T ARROW SKIRT ONE QUESTION
AND FOR JOEL, CAN YOU UPDATE US
ON STATUS OF NEGOTIATIONS ON THE
SEATS
>> TEMPT WILLING EARLIER LOO
DEVELOP, WE LEERNLDZ TWHUSHTHSD
THE ARROW SKIRT THE SHOCK WAVES
ATTACHED NEAR THE BASE OF THE
CENT TAR CREATED QUITE BIT
ACOULD YOU STICKS NOISES AND
THAT EXISTED WERE BEYOND WHAT
HARDWARE WAS QUALIFIED FOR.
SO BY ADDING ARROW SKIRT THAT
SMOOTHEDED THAT FLOW AND WAYS
COME OFF OF THE RONT ROCK.
REATTACHED BELOW CENT TAR AND
THAT WAY WE DON'T BUDGET THAT
NOISE AND WE ARE IN GOOD SHAPE
THAT REASON TO PUT ARROW SKIRT
ON.
>> YOU GOT BUILT IN FOR HOW --.
THAT YOU CAN HANDLE?
YES JOE KNOW THIS QUALIFIED
CERTAIN VOOIRMENTZ AND WE JUST
NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT AS OF
COURSES ARE SUCH THAT THOSE
ENVIRONMENTS ARE INVOLVED BITE
TESTING WE HAVE DONE.
WE ARE IN GOOD SHAPE THERE.
>> OKAY.
>> SAETSZ, SO AS YOU ARE AWARE
WE HAVE HAD SOME FACT FINES
DISCUSSIONS WITH THEM ADDITIONAL
SEATS WHEN YOU HAVE A NEW
PROGRAM COMING ON BOARD LIKE THE
COMMERCIAL CREW PROGRAM, IT
MAKES SENSE TO MAKE SURE WE ARE
LOOK AT EVERYTHING WORK OFF THE
STEPS AND NOT PUTTING NIBLG
ANYBODY POSITION WHERE THEY
THEIR RUSHED AND FROM ISS
PROGRAM STAND POINT IT MAKES
SENSE WE ARE LOOKING AT TWO
ADDITIONAL SEATS RIGHT NOW, WE
HAVE THE SEAT LAST ONE IS THAT
WE PURCHASED LAWNING IN APRIL OF
2020.
AND WE ARE IN LIKE I SAID FACT
FIND DISCUSSIONS WITH THEM ON 12
ADDITIONAL SEATS.
>> WE WILL KEEP WORKING OUR WAY
BACK THAN SIDE.
>> THANK YOU.
HI.
PETER KING WITH CBS NEWS RADIO
AND I AM NOT SURE IF THIS
QUESTION WOULD BE FOR KATHY OR
FOR JOHN, BUTS, I AM ASSUMING
YOU GUYS ARE PUTTING ROSY TO
WORK AND I AM CURIOUS TO YOU
KNOW WHAT WILL BE MEASURED
DURING HER FLIGHT UP, DURING HER
STAY ACROSS THE BOARD OR KNOWS
STATION AND THEN ON THE WAY BACK
DOWN.
>> ABSOLUTELY.
NUMBER OF WE ARE MEASURING LOADS
MOMENTS ON CREW.
VERY IMPORTANT FORCE.
WE WILL ATTEMPT DEVICE ALSO ON
THE TEST PROVIDE INVALUABLE DATA
AS YOU REALLY LOOK TO MEASURE
AND UNDERSTAND CREW LOADING ON
THE LAND LAND.
REALLY HAPPY WITH PERFORMANCE
FROM OUR ONE THE KEY WARE
RAMMERS IMPACTED PROBABLY
EXPLAIN MORE BUT YOU ARE LOOK AT
THE MOMENT.
WE ARE ACTUALLY TEN TIMES BELOW
REQUIREMENT LEVELS FOR THAT.
SO, OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE BUT
WE REALLY NEED TO GET ADDITIONAL
DATA ON FLIGHT TEMPTS GOING TO
PROVIDE THAT'S WE NAMED ROSY.
WHICH IS JUST REALLY, KIND OF
PULLING BACK.
FROM OUR LEGACY AND REALLY
INSPIRATIONAL TO THINK I LOT OF
OUR WORKFORCE TODAY REERLLE
REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO DATA
SHE WILL PROVIDE AND BENEFITS
SHE WILL MAKE FOR OUR MISSION.
>> YES.
OKAY THANK YOU.
>> WELL.
EMILY FLORIDA QUESTION FOR JOHN.
AGAIN.
MAY BE DATA QUESTION.
OBVIOUSLY BE WILL GETTING DATA
IN A SENSE LIVE STREAMED DOWN
YOU DOWN THE GROUND.
BUT HOW MUCH OF THAT DATA IS
SORT OF IN THE SPACECRAFT?
IN OTHER WORDS HOW MUCH OF IT
ARE YOU GOING TO GET AFTER THE
MISSION IS OVER AND I GUESS HOW
LONG DOES THAT REVIEW PROCESS
TAKE?
>> YES.
SO COUPLE OF STRINGS OF DATA
SOME CALLED OFI DATA THAT'S DOWN
LINKED TO MISSION EXCEPT FOR
PERIOD ON LOS.
TREMENDOUS A. DATA WE WILL ABLE
EVALUATE IT IN NEAR REAL TIME WE
GOT THOUSANDS PARAMETERS.
SO, ALL OVER SPACE CRAFT.
ALL TYPES DATA.
WHY CANS SWSZ WE BE -- FEW DAYS
WE WILL BE I WILL GO FLY BACK
OUT HERE TO GLORY START DO BEING
DETAILED DATA REVIEW NOT ONLY
PLAN TO HAVE SYSTEM BY SYSTEM
DATA REVIEW BUT IN TWO WEEKS OF
WLANGD.
>> WE ARE GOING DO ONE MORE
QUESTION IN ROOM BEFORE WE TAKE
COUPLE ON THE PHONE WE WILL COME
BACK TO ROOM BECAUSE THERE IS
LOTS MOVE QUESTIONS IN HERE WE
WILL GO TO BACK CORNER.
HI.
FOR CAT KNEE FOR PAT, WHEN THIS
PROGRAM STARTED OFF WITH THE CTT
CAP AWARDS IN 214 I DON'T THINK
ANYBODY THOUGHT IT WOULD TAKE
FIVE YEARS TO GET TO THIS POINT,
BUT YOU KNOW THAT NOW PLANS TO
HAVE TIME AND DO A CRUISE
LANDING MISSION ON THE MOON.
I AM WONDERING WHAT YOU HAVE
BEEN ABLE TO LEARN FROM THIS
PROGRAM MANAGING THIS PROGRAM SO
FAR THAT YOU THINK HAS AP POLICE
KAIGSZ FOR THIS NEW EFFORT AND,
WHY ASIDE FROM THE EARLIER
FUNDING SHORTFALLS AND SOME OF
THE TECHNICAL ISSUES IT IS TAKEN
SO STRONG GET TO THIS POINT?
THANK YOU.
>> SO THINK I WILLING BUT
SPACECRAFT AND DEVELOPING
HARDWARE REALLY HARD.
RIGHT?
AND SO, TOO THINK FOLKS LOOK
LIKE TAKEN LONG TIME BUT I THINK
WHEN YOU GO BACK AND LOOK AT
DEVELOPMENT HISTORY OVER TIME,
THINK THIS PROGRAM OVER ALL
THINK BEEN DOING GOOD JOB OF
LAYING OUT AND MEETING ITS
OBLIGATION INVOLVEMENT NOSZ
EXACTLY.
YOU KNOW LATE 2017.
BUT MOVING TOWARDS US BEING ABLE
TO HAVE CRUDE MISSIONS IN TIME
FRAME WE WOULD LIKE HAVE THEM.
YOU NO, THINK THING I AM MOST
PROUD OF WITH ABOUT WOULDING AND
BOTH OUR PROVIDERS AS THEY FOUND
ISSUES THEY DIDN'T SHORTCUT.
AND SO, WE HAVE BEEN ABLE
UNDERSTOOD OUR MISSION FOR US TO
FLY A CREW WE HAVE TO FLY CREW
SAFELY.
IT DON'T DO ANY GOOD TO DO
ANYWAY THAT WE ARE BOTH NOT
GOING COMFORTABLE FLYING OUR
CREWS.
SO, I THINK WHEN WE CAME THEY
LAID OUT THEIR PLAN AND THEY
WORKED THROUGH ISSUES THEY
DIDN'T HAVE THAT SCHEDULE
PRESSURE TO BE ABLE TO SAVE WE
ARE NOT GOING TO DO RIGHT THING
AND INDEPENDENCE OF WHAT THAT
MEANT FROM SCHEDULE PERSPECTIVE.
AND SO, I THINK WE HAVE BEEN
WORK TO GET HERE AS FACT AS WE
CAN.
I APPRECIATE WHAT JOEL IS
SAYING.
JOEL SAYING HE WE UNDERSTANDS
GETTING NEW SPACECRAFT ON LIKE
GETTING NEW SYSTEMS.
DEVELOPING AND CERTIFYING,
COMPLERGS SHAL VEHICLES IS HARD
SO WE NEED TO MAKE SURE YOU
SGRIETS TIME TO DO IT RIGHT.
AND SO I AM VERY PROUD OF THIS
TEAM.
THAT THEY HAVE BEEN DOING IT
RIGHT.
WE BEEN WORKING LAERNDZ FOLKS
TALKING ABOUT MAKE SURE YOU HAVE
YOUR REQUIREMENTS UP FRONT WORK
THROUGH THAT.
WHERE IN PROCESS CAN YOU GAUGE
AND MAKE PROGRESS ALONG THE WAY
SO YOU CAN TAKE ARE LEARNING
FROM US.
AND SO, THAT IS INTERACTIVE
DISCUSSION WITH US AND APPLYING
OUR LESSONS LEARNED TO THE NEW
PROGRAMMES COMING FORWARD.
IT DOES NOT HURT TO HAVE A YOU
KNOW VERY COMPETITIVE GOAL.
I THINK THAT'S ALWAYS GOOD TO
VERY YOU KNOW GOAL THAT WILL YOU
ARE OUT THERE AND TRYING ACHIEVE
TRYING TO GET TO CREW SERVICES
AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE.
MEANING THAT GOAT UNSAFELY.
THAT SOMETHING THAT THEY TEAM
HAS NOT DONE.
WE DO WANT TO GO TO PHONE FOR
COUPLE OF QUESTIONS THE FIRST
ONE IS JIM.
JIM YOU HEAR US?
>> YES, CAN I.
>> ALL RIGHT.
PLEASE GO AHEAD WITH YOUR
QUESTION.
>> I AM NOT SURE WHO GOES TO BUT
I NEVER -- I HAVE A QUESTION
ABOUT THE PROCESS OF THE LAND
THIS SPACECRAFT THAT'S GOING TO
BE DONE ON WHETHER OR NOTTED AIR
CUSHIONS I AM INTERESTED IN
COMPARE SFRON HUMAN FACTORS
POINT OF VIEW OF THAT KIND OF
LAND SERVICE LANDING OR SAFE
WHICH IS ALSO ON LAND SERVICE, A
SPACE X OVER OTHER CAPSULE
THAT'S BEEN LAND IN WATER.
SO, IS THE ONE THAT'S BEING USED
FOR STAR LINERED EASIER ON BODY
HARDER ON BODY?
IN WHAT WAY?
>> I GUESS I WILL START.
REAL BENEFIT THERE LOTS OF
BENEFITS OF LANDING ON LAND.
ONE OF MAIN BENEFITS IS
STABILITY AND ABILITY FOR THE
LAND SYSTEM TO ABSORB THE LOADS
ON THE CREW.
AND, ON THE SPACECRAFT.
YOU KNOW OUR SPACECRAFT HAS TO
CERTIFIED TO LAND ON LAND OR IN
WATER IF WE END ABORT ON WE WILL
LAND SAFELY IN WATER.
DIFFICULTY WATER LANDING, IS LOT
OF SURVEY ABLZ THAT YOU HAVE TO
FACE.
YOU LACKS SALT WALTER.
BUT LACKS INTO WAVE, CAN ADDS
SIGNIFICANT A. LOADS IN CAPSULE.
SO REAL BENEFIT LANDING BE LAND.
FROM YOU HAVE LOWER CREW
LOADING, YOU GET REAL BENEFIT
OUT OF THOSE LACKS AIR PACKS WE
HAD.
REAL TWO AIR BAGS IN ONE WHEN
YOU LAND THEY COMPRESSION OR AT
LEAST ARGOS OUT OF THAT OUTER
AIR BAG BE AN OH, A LOT OF LAND.
AND I MENTIONED A LITTLE BIT OF
THE DATA OUT THAT LOAD IT WAS
CREW.
SO, LOT OF BENEFITS WE THINK
WITH OUR LACKS SYSTEM AND
LANDING ON LAND.
ALTHOUGH, IN EVENTS OF ABORT WE
WILL PROVIDE SAFE LANDING WITH
THAT THAME SAME SYSTEM IN THE
OCEAN.
>> THANK YOU, JOHN.
NEXT QUESTION ON THE PHONE IS
FROM DAVE WITH BUSINESS INSIRED.
DAVE, ARE YOU THERE?
>> YES I AM HERE.
THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS PRESS
CONFERENCE.
I WANDZ FOLLOW UP ON EARLIER
QUESTION ABOUT FLIGHTS THOSE TWO
THAT YOU UNDERSTANDS THERE IS A
YEAR LONG LAG FROM WHEN YOU
ORDER FLIGHTS ACTUALLY DELIFRDZ.
WHAT FINAL APRIL 2020 FLIGHT
THAT'S ALREADY ON THE BOOKS AND
OF ANY THESE NEW REAL SORT HE
COPE OP.
EACH OR WOULD YOU WAIT FOR, PACE
CRAFT TO BE DELETTER RDZ.
>> OKAY.
SO, AGAIN, THE MOMENT ONE WE
LOOKING AT THE FALL OF 2020.
AND THAT'S SPACECRAFT ALREADY
BEING BUILT AND SO WE WOULD WORK
THEM FOR SEAT ON THAT SPACECRAFT
THAT'S ALREADY BEING BUILT.
WE WOULD DO SAME THING FOR IF WE
DECIDE TO PURCHASE THE ONE IN
SPRING OF 21 AGAIN, IT WILL
CONTINUING TO BUILD TWO A YEAR.
WE ARE NEGOTIATING OR WE DO
NEGOTIATIONS WITH THEM ON ASSESS
THIRD SEAT ON THAT SO THEY COULD
HAVE TWO AND THEN ONE U.S.
ASTRONAUT.
>> THANK YOU JOEL.
WE WILL TAKE ONE MORE QUESTION
ON THE PHONE AND THEN WE WILL
COME BACK HERE IN ROOM AND OUR
THIRD QUESTION ON PHONE FAROM
ERIC BURGER ERIC ARE YOU THERE?
>> YES, I AM.
ENOUGH I HAVE COUPLE QUESTIONS
FIRST OF ALL FOR JOHN,
CONGRATULATIONS COULD YOU TELL
ME HOW CLOSE OFT VEHICLE IS TO
EVNGSLY STAPLE SPACECRAFT AND
THEN SECONDLY FOR KATHY, WHAT
SHORTEST DELTA COULD YOU IMAGINE
BETWEEN SUCCESSFUL OMT AND THEN
GETTING CFT MISSION OFF OF THE
GROUND.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
>> IT IS REALLY IMPORTANT FROM
SYSTEM PERSPECTIVE IT IS NEAR
LOO IDENTICAL.
ONLY THING WE WOULD WILL NOT
HAVE ON YAWN CRUDE FLIGHT WHAT
WE CALL SEAT FAN PACK.
SO, WE HAVE GOT SYSTEM THAT WILL
PROVIDE EMERGENCY OBJECTION
GREEN THE CREW IN CASE YOU HAVE
CABIN LEAK.
WITHOUT A BREATHING ASTRONAUT ON
BOARD YOU WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO
CHECK OUT THAT SYSTEM.
BUT OTHER THAN THAT, THE SYSTEMS
ARE NEARLY IDENTICAL.
ONLY OTHER THANK WE HAVEN'T IS
INFLIGHT ABORT.
AS MENTIONED EARLIER.
OTHER THAN THAT, SYSTEMS ARE
NEARLY IDENTICAL.
>> SO I MEAN, THINK THERE COUPLE
OF THINGS THAT DRIVE DURATION.
OBVIOUSLY FIRST MOST SWORN THE
CRUDE FLIGHT TEST SCHEDULE.
WE WOULD HAVE TO WORK THROUGH
THAT.
YOU KNOW WE NEED TO MAKE SURE AS
WE ARE GETTING THE VEHICLE DOWN
WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND YOU KNOW
JOHN TALKED BEFORE ABOUT ALL OF
THE DATA THAT'S THERE AND
WORKING THROUGH THAT AND MAKING
SURE WE ROLL THATTING IN OUR
FINAL VERIFICATION.
WE ACTUALLY ARE DEVELOPED OUR
NEXT ROUNDS CLOSE OUT AND,
MAKING SURE WE GOT OUR FINAL
CERTIFICATION HE HAVE NORTH
PLACE.
TO LINE UP WHETHER CREW FLIGHT
TEST VEHICLE IS READY TO GO.
SO, JOHN AND I ARE STILL WORKING
THROUGH THOSE SCHEDULES AND,
FINALIZING THOSE GETTING THIS
VEHICLE AND HAVING THIS MISSION
WILL BE KEY PART OF THAT
SCHEDULE.
>> LET'S COME BACK HERE IN ROOM.
KEN IN FRONT ROW, HI.
FOR JOHN I AM WONDERING, WE ARE
TALKING ABOUT YOU ARE TALKING
ABOUT ECAN I WILLING THESE
SPACECRAFT AND THIS ONE AS PATS
WOULD GO TO SUNI WHAT'S QUICKEST
TIME WHAT TIME FOR REFURBISHMENT
WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO DO TO GET IT
READY?
>> SCHEDULED TIME FOR TURNED
ABOUT FOUR AND HALF MONTHS
FACTORY.
LIKE I SAID LARGELY REUSABLE.
NEWS PIECE THAT COME IN EVERY
FLIGHT WE WOULD HAVE NEW COVER,
AND NEW HEAT SHIELD NEW BASE
HEAT SHIELD.
OBVIOUSLY THOSE PART OF THE
THERMAL PROTECTION SYSTEM WOULD
BE NEW EVERY FLIGHT.
ESSENTIALLY THE REST OF THE IT
IS FULLY REUSABLE.
SO WE HAVE GOT SERIES OF
INSPECTIONS PROCEDURES.
WE WILL DUAL OUR LEAK TESTS AND
JUST START CLOSING OUT OF
VEHICLE VERY SIMILAR WE DID OVER
THE LAST COUPLE MONTHS.
>> INSIDE CAPSULE.
VERY LITTLE INSIDE OF THE
CAPSULE WE WILL DO INSPECTIONS
WE HAVE GOT NUMBER OF ROUTINE
STRUCTURAL INSPECTIONS BUT IT IS
REALLY ALMOST NEAR DUPE
IMPLICATION OF THAT ACCEPTANCE
TEST PROCEDURE THAT WE RAN PRIOR
TO SHIPPING THE UNCRUDE FLIGHT
VEHICLE OVER UAL.
SO IT IS THOSE PROCEDURES THOSE
TIME LINES HAVE ALREADY BEEN
ESTABLISHED AND TESTED.
>> OKAY.
SECOND ROW WSHTHS WHITE SHIRT.
YOU MENTIONED PAT ACROSS THE
BOARD TENT.
I WILL UPDATE DATA VIEW GOING
NEED PLANNING FOR EITHER ORBITAL
FLIGHT TESTS OR CREW FLIGHT TEST
AND THEN SECOND FOR YOU OR FOR
JOEL, BESIDES ROSY WHAT CARGO
GOING UP TO SPACE STATION ON THE
MISSION?
>> ABSOLUTELY.
SO, THE ACROSS THE BOARD TEST
REVIEW HAS BEEN REALLY
SUCCESSFUL.
SO THE TEAM THAT WORKED THROUGH
THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A LOT OF KEY
PARAMETERS WE WANTED TO GO LOOK
AT.
MENGSDZ ONE OBJECTIVE HERE ON
UNCRUDES FLIGHT TEST WAS LOOKING
AT SEPARATION PLAINS.
THAT'S ALWAYS ESSENTIAL.
THIS ORBITAL FLIGHT TESTS
OBVIOUSLY LAST OPPORTUNITY WE
ARE GOING TO HAVE TO GO TO TEMPT
THOSE.
THOSE ARE ALL 100 PERCENTS
SUCCESSFUL FROM A SEPARATION
STAND POINT.
I DID MENTION ONE CREW LOADING,
DATA POINT WE WILL.
OTHER THING WE LOOKED AT WAS
SHOCK IN OUR SYSTEM ALL OF
SHOCKS FROM ALL OF THE PART
DEVICES.
AND THEY WERE ALL RIGHT ON TOP
OF PRE TEST PREDICTIONS.
THEN, THE FINAL AREA THAT WAS
REALLY IMPORTANT FOES US GO
LOOKED AT GUIDANCE NAVIGATION
AND CONTROL PERFORMANCE.
IT WAS OUTSTANDING.
IT WAS RIGHT ON TOP PRE TEST
PREDICTIONS.
SO, THE TEAM IS JUST REALLY
PROUD OF PAT ACROSS THE BOARD
TEMPTED WE HAD TWO CHUTES
INSTEAD OF THREE BECAUSE OF
ERROR THAT WE HAD IN THE FINAL
RIG THAT WE HAVE GONE AND FULLY
ADDRESSED AND TEAM READY TO GO
FORWARD.
>> ISS CARGO.
ON THIS MISSION.
MAJORITY OF IT FOOD BUT WE ALSO
HAVE SOME CREW CLOTHING AND SOME
RADIATION MONITORING EQUIPMENT.
>> ALL RIGHT.
CHRIS IN BLACK SHIRT.
>> THANK YOU.
I WANT TO GO BACK AT LAST FOR
THIS MISSION.
BECAUSE IT IS NOT JUST
CONFIGURATION ALSO FLYING
DIFFERENT PROFILE.
I WAS WONDERING IF COULD YOU
TALK ABOUT WHO FLIGHT PROFILE
DPRIFRNT OTHERS AND
SPECIFICALLY, WHY IS STAR LINER
BEING DROPPED OFF IN SUBORBITAL
TRAJECTORY WHAT IS THAT FINAL
NUMBER LIKE 978, BIESHGSZ WHAT
HOW FAR INTO ATMOSPHERE IS TRA
TRAJECTORY STAIR LINER HAS TO
MAKE UP FOR
>> YES SO.
PART OF THE MEMORY FOR USING
DUAL CENT TAR IS TO, FLATSEN OUT
THE TRAJECTORY AND SO SUCH THAT,
WE CAN ENABLE SAFE ABOERTZ IF
THAT HE SHOULD BE NECESSARY.
AND THERE COUNSEL OF THINGS THAT
HAPPEN WITHOUT LOT OF TRAJECTORY
THE G-LOADS ARE LOWER.
AND AS THE SPACECRAFT REFRENTS
LOWER ALTITUDE.
AND SO THAT'S EASTERN AND ALSO,
WE NEEDS TO KEEP OUT OF THE
BLACK OUT ZONES FROM ATLANTIC
AND THAT FLATTENED TRAJECTORY
ALLOWS THAT TO HAPPEN AND IT IS
SUBORBITAL WHEN WE RELEASE IT.
JOHN MAYBE YOU HAVE NUMBERS IT
IS LIKE 80 BY 40.
THOSE MAY NOT BE PRECISE.
WE GET YOU PRECISE NUMBERS AND
THEN THE ENGINES FROM STAR LINER
WILL CIRCULATE THAT ORBIT FROM
THAT POINT ON.
DO YOU KNOW EXACT NUMBERS FOR
ORBITAL?
>> I THINK IT IS 90 BY 39.
>> ALL RIGHT.
IN FRONT IN THE PINKING.
>> YOUTH IF COULD YOU JUST A
WALK US THROUGH STAR LINER'S
JOURNEY AND YOU WOULD FLOW
GROUNDS TO THE INTERNATIONAL
SPACE STATION.
HOW MANY ORBITS IT WILL COMPLETE
AND THEN SECONDLY, DURINGS PRESS
CONFERENCE, I BELIEVE IT WAS
LAST WEEK, SOMEONE MENTIONED
THAT THERE MAY BE HOLIDAY
PRESENTS AN BOARDS SPACECRAFT I
LIKE TO INQUIRE A BIT MORE ABOUT
THAT.
THANK YOU.
>> YOU KNOW THEY ARE NOT
PRESENTS.
TEAM LITERALLY SPENT KATHY WENT
THROUGH TEAM LITERALLY SPENT
YEARS BUILDING SPACECRAFT THEY
ACTUALLY THIS IS ONE OF LAST --
THIS LAST SPACECRAFT THAT THIS
HAVE BUILT BECAUSE WE HAVE BUILT
SAYS CRAFT TWO WHICH WILL BE
FIRST CRUDE FLIGHT TEST IN
SHIPPED IT OUT TO OUT OF FLORIDA
CAMPAIGN FOR ALL TRAVEL WE BUILT
SPACECRAFT, TEAM REALLY DID GOOD
JOB BE ABSORBED LOT OF ARE
LEARNING ON BUILDING OF THE
OTHER SPACECRAFT AND THIS IS ONE
WENT REALLY WELL.
AND YOU KNOW ABOUT MONTHS AGO,
THEY COMPLETED THE LAST
ACCEPTANCE TEST OF THAT
SPACECRAFT THEY ROLLED OUT, A
LITTLE OVER TO SCENT AND WE HAVE
BEEN DOING FINAL SPACECRAFT
CLOSE OUT AS ULA WAS PREPARING
LAWN VEHICLE. J:j[[
AND, SO TEAM REALLY EXCITED THEY
CLOSED -- WHEN THEY DID THEIR
FINAL CLOSE OUT, ON SATURDAY, IT
WAS REALLY SPECIAL MOMENT FOR
THE TEAM BECAUSE ALL SPACECRAFT
WORK WAS COMPLETED IN THE ON
SATURDAY.
ALSO SYSTEMS ARE CHECK OUT GOOD
AND SO WE REALLY EXCITED ABOUT
THAT.
AND AS MENTIONED ONE OF THE KEY
FOCUS AREAS WE HAVE ON
COMMERCIAL CREWS SINCE WE
TRANSPORTATION PLATFORM IS WE
WANT TO GET OUR DESTINATION AS
SOON AS WE.
AND THEN, WHEN TIME TOP LEAVE
OUR DESTINATION WE WANT TO GET
THE GROUND AS SOON AS WE CAN.
AND GET THERE SAFELY.
GET YOUR MISSION COMPLETE AND SO
WE WILL BE LAYING -- DOCKING
ABOUT 25 HOURS AFTER LAUNCH.
SO IT IS WHAT'S CALLED FLIGHT
DATE, BUT BARELY FLOOR SECOND
DAY.
SO, NOT A LOT OF ORBIT WSZ.
ALONG THE WAY, WE WILL BE DOING
NUMBER OF WHAT WE CALL
DEMONSTRATIONS SO AS WE GET
CLOSER TO THE SPACE STATION, WE
HAVE GOT A NUMBER OF CHECK OUTS
THAT WE HAVE ON OUR SYSTEMS SO
THAT GROUNDS CAN MONITOR AND
ENSURE THAT ALL THOSE SYSTEM ARE
WORKING APPROPRIATELY WE MAIN
MAIN PROJECTION FOR THE SPACE
STATION THAT'S REQUIRED.
WHEN TIME TO COME ONLY I THINK I
MENTIONED EARLIER FROM
UNDOCKING, TO THE GROUND IT IS
ONLY ABOUT FOUR HOURS.
SO, WE WILL UNSTOCK DO SYSTEM
CHECK OUT ON ALL OF THE
THRUSTERS.
FROM TIME WE DO DEORBIT BURN
UNTIL WE LAND OUT IN DESERT
ABOUT 40 MINUTES.
SOY IT IS REALLY QUICK.
>> THANK YOU.
WE HAVE GOT DIME FOR COUPLE OF
MORE QUESTIONS WE WILL GO OVER
HERE.
>> JOHN WITH --.
BELIEVEINMENOW THIS QUESTION FOR
JOEL.
WHAT ISSUES DO YOU GO OVER WITH
OUR INTERNATIONAL PARTNER WHEN
YOU BRING NEW CRAFT TO THE SPACE
STATION?
AND OH, WE REVOOUS VIEWS FOR
THIS MIX WHAT WE REVIEW IS THE
CLOSE END OF PROXIMITY OPERATION
WHEN THE VEHICLE COMING NEAR AND
PARTY INTERNATIONAL SPACE
STATION WE GO THROUGH TRAJECTORY
OPERATION THEY WOULD THROUGH AT
MOTION FEAR, AND AT MORE FEE
CHANGES YOU WILL HAVE WHEN YOU
BRING NEW VEHICLES WITH TO
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION.
AND SO THERE IS A DIFFERENT SET
OF SAFETY REQUIREMENTS SETS OF
MISSION REQUIREMENTS.
AND, SETS OF INTERFACE RARMENT
AND WE REVIEW TRAVEL WITH
INTERNATIONAL PARTNERS AND TAKE
LOTS OF WORK.
AND ONCE WE SWITCH OVER THE CREW
VEHICLES WE WILL START
INCORPORATING MORE THE LAUNCH
VEHICLE IN THOSE DISCUSSIONS WE
ALREADY HAVE DONE SOME OF THAT
WE HAVE DONE SOME MENT
DISCUSSION WITH BOTH LAWN
VEHICLES AND THE LANTHDZ
OPERATIONS.
WITH THE INTERNATIONAL PARTNER
BUT THOSE ARE TYPE ITEMS WE
DISCUSS WITH THEM.
>> OBJECTION NEXT QUESTION.
IN STRIPES HERE.
>> CBC RADIO QUESTION FOR PAT.
WILL CREW HAVE ANY ABILITY TO
TAKE OVER -- TAKE CONTROL
SPACECRAFT IF THINK ANALOGIES
WITH THE DOKIC?
I AIM IS AN ISS CREW.
THEY WILL NOT.
MOST OF US THAT.
>> THE DATA, AND INFORMATION
WILL BE AVAILABLE OUT GROUNDS.
NOT NECESSARILY ON BOARDS THE
ISS.
AND BUT THEY ARE TRAINED AS WE
CALL THEM OFFICERS.
THAT'S JESSICA AND CHRISTINA
COOK.
>> THANK YOU PAT.
QUESTION HERE JUST A NEXT TO
BILL.
>>.
>> IF JOHN, OR MR. CAN FWAUSHGS
LAWN DATES AVAILABLE AFTER
DECEMBER 209.
WHAT DO YOU HAVE ON RANGE WHAT
DO YOU HAVE IN TERMS AFTER THAT
IN TERMS OF IT ISS AVAILABILITY
FOR LAWN DATES AND, ALSO ANY
LIMITATIONS ON HOW MANY ATTEMPTS
YOU CAN MAKE BEFORE YOU HAVE TO
ROLLING BACK SERVICING, ON THE
SPACECRAFT OR THE VEHICLE?
>> I WILL START OUT FROM THE
SPACECRAFT STANDS POINT.
SO AVAILABLE LAWN DAYS AS WE
WORK WITH INTERNATIONAL SPACE
STATION PROGRAM, AND OUR ABILITY
TO HAVE PERFORMANCE GET THERE WE
HAVE 2TH 2, 1 AND 23RD ON THE
RANGE.
AVAILABLE TO DAYS.
FROM A CAPABILITY TO GET TO
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION WE
DONT HAVE TO 23RD BUT WE HAVE
TWO 59 THROUGH 28TH.
AND, THEN, WE DO NOT HAVE
CAPABILITY ON THE 29TH BUT THEN,
THREE DAYS OF THAT.
SO, WE REALLY SET UP IN THE
MOVENLTSZ DECEMBER IF FOR SOME
REASON KEY CAN'T GET ON 209.
NOW, YOU HAVE GOT FACTOR IN IF
YOU DID SCRUB WHERE YOU SKRUBDZ
INTO THE COUNT.
OBVIOUSLY ONCE -- YOU HAVE
CERTAIN FLICHL ATTEMPT CERTAIN
NUMBER OF USAGE PROPEL LAND
BEFORE WE HAVE TO UAL WOULD HAVE
BRING IN SOME ADDITIONAL.
LOT OF DISCUSSIONS OBVIOUSLY
WITH THAT IS A ULA.
AND RANGE.
AND THEY ARE ACTUAL SPACE
STATION PROGRAM.
AND, EVERYBODY VERY SUPPORTIVE
WE ARE GOING TO DO EVERYTHING WE
CAN EVEN WORKING OVER THE
HOLIDAY BREAK TO MAKE SURE WE
SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETE THIS
MISSION.
JOHN I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WANT TO
GO THROUGH THAT.
A LITTLE BIT THE CONSUMABLE.
THIS MISSION HAS LONGER BUILT IN
HOLDS IN OUR COUNT THAN TYPICAL
AND SO WE HAVE IN THAT DONE
ACCOMMODATED LOCKED THE CREW.
WHEN IT IS CREWED MISSION.
SO, THERE MORE TIME WHERE WE
HAVE BOIL OFF.
AND SO, DEPENDING ON WHETHER WE
WOULD DECIDE TO SCRUB IN THE
COUNT, THAT COULD BE A BIGGER
PROBLEM ORRERS OF A PROBLEM.
DEPENDING ON HOW MUCH WE BOILED
OFF.
KIND DEPENDS WE WILL HAVE TO
LOOK IF WE DO HAVE A SCRUB, WE
WILL HAVE TO LOOK AT WHY WE
SCRUBBED HOW MUCH WORK WE HAVE
TO DO FIX WHATEVER THE REASON
WAS.
AND THEN WHERE WE ENDED UP
CONSUMABLES AND HOW MANY ATTEMPT
WE CAN GET WITH CONSUMABLE THAT
LEFT BEFORE WE HAVE TO RETHENISH
BUT AS JOHN MENTION WOODS RE SET
UP FOR 21 AND 23RD.
AT THE MOMENT.
WE WILL WORK OUR WAY THROUGH
THAT.
>> ALL RIGHT.
THANK YOU.
WE HAVE TAME TIME FOR ONE MORE
QUESTION.
BECOME I KNOW YOU LOOKED LIKE
YOU HAD A FOLLOW UP.
>> YES.
YOU NO, BEFORE ASKING WHERE THEY
ARE GOING LUVENT CFT MISSION.
BUT THAT REALLY DEPENDS ON FACES
INTO AT LAST SCHEDULE.
YOU GOT SOLAR ORBITER.
AND YOU GOT COUPLE MILITARY
FLIGHTS MARCH AND APRIL.
AND, HOW TOUGH IS GOING TO BE
PHASE STAIR LINER IN TO PRETTY
MAN FELTER NEXT YEAR.
WE GO HAVE A BUSY MAN FELT
COMING UP THIS YEAR WE HAVE
THERE AGAIN BRAL LAUNCH A MONTH.
WE DO HAVE STAR LINER WORKED
INTO MANIFEST AS IT SET NOW.
YOU WANT TALKING ABOUT THE DATE
FOR THAT, JOHN?
>> WE ARE STILL LOOK I THINK
COUPLE OF AREAS.
FIRST PART OF YEAR WE WANTED TO
REALLY STAY AWAY FROM ANY
ANNOUNCE MEVENLTS CRUDE UNTIL WE
SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETE OFT MAKE
SURE THAT WE WERE READY TO LOCK
IN A LAUNCH DATED.
YES WE HAVE A BASELINE WE ARE
WORKING TO WE WILL SEE HOW WE WE
HAVE MARKERS 2020.
THOSE PLAN THE MISSION LOCK IN
SOME SORE, THOSE REALLY COOL
POLICES TOO BY THE WAY SOME
PRETTY SPECIAL NASA MISSION
STHAZ ARE GOING TO HAPPEN THIS
YEAR.
AND THEN, SOME OTHER DEPARTMENT
OF DEFENSE PAY LOADS.
BUT WE WILL WORK THROUGH THAT.
AND TEAM IS WORKING LOTS OF
OPTIONS AND WE WILL FIGURE OUT
HOW TO TO WORK THROUGH.
>> ALL RIGHT.
THANK YOU TO JONZ.
ALL TIME WE HAVE TODAY.
SO, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR
QUESTIONS AND THANK YOU TO EACH
OF OUR GUEST FOR YOUR TIME
ANSWERING THEM.
OUR REMINDS DER THE LAUNCH AT
6:30 FRIDAY MORNING THAT THE
EASTERN TIME.
AND OUR LIVE LAWN COVERAGE
STARTS ON NASA TV STARTING AT
5:30.
