>> IGNITION, SEQUENCE, START.
>> GOOD MORNING.
YOU GOT A VIEW OF NASA JOHNSON
SPACE CENTER WHERE THE ORBIT 2
TEAM IS MONITORING THE
PERFORMANCE OF STATION SYSTEMS
THEN HELPING THE EXPEDITION 66
CREWMEMBERS AS THEY MOVE THROUGH
THE LAST FEW HOURS OF THEIR
WORKWEEK ON ORBIT.
COMMANDER ANTON SHKAPLEROV AND
THE CREWMATES HAVE TWO
SPACEWALKS ON THE SCHEDULE FOR
LATER THIS MONTH AND BEGUN
MAKING PREPARATIONS FOR THEM.
WHILE DOING WORK ON THE WHOLE
VARIETY OF SCIENCE RESEARCH,
THAT INCLUDES SOME OF THE
PICTURES THEY TAKE OF THE PLANET
BELOW THEM.
>> HOUSTON, SPACE TO GROUND.
>> WELCOME TO SPACE TO GROUND.
RECENT RESULTS FROM A STUDY ON
PHOTOGRAPHY AND A VERY BUSY
MARCH ACTIVITY CONTINUES ABOARD
THE SPACE STATION.
A PICTURE IS WORTH 1,000 WORDS
THE IMAGES FROM THE CREW EARTH
OBSERVATION EXPERIMENT HAS VALUE
THAT IS BEYOND WORDS AND
CREWMEMBERS ABOARD THE SPACE
STATION USE DIGITAL CAMERAS TO
RECORD HOW THE PLANET IS
CHANGING OVERTIME.
ONE STUDY USES SATELLITE IMAGERY
AND DATA PULLED FROM PHOTOGRAPH
OF PHOTOGRAPHS TO MODEL
NIGHTTIME LIGHT AND PROVIDES
UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE OF LIGHT
SPECTRUM SIGNATURE AND THE
DIFFERENCE RESULTING IN
STATISTICAL MAPS OF THE RELATIVE
CONTRIBUTION OF TYPES.
YOU CAN ACCESS MORE THAN
3MILLION IMAGES ON-LINE THANKS
IN LARGE PART TO THE CREW EARTH
OBSERVATION'S EXPERIMENT.
HERE IS AN OLD PROVERB THE MONTH
OF MARCH COMES IN LIKE A LION
AND GOES OUT LIKE A LAMB THE
OPPOSITE CAN BE SAID FOR THIS
MARCH.
AT LEAST IN HUMAN SPACEFLIGHT.
ACTIVITIES ON ORBIT STEP TO REV
UP WHEN KAYLA BARRON STEP OUT OF
THE AIRLOCK TO PREPARE THE
STATION FOR THE NEXT INSTALLMENT
OF THE POWER CHANNEL.
AS ALWAYS YOU CAN SEE THE
SPACEWALK ON NASA. GOV OR THE
NASA APP.
YOU WILL HAVE A PREVIEW OF ALL
SPACEWALK ACTIVITIES FOR THE
MONTH AND WE HOPE THE BRIEFING
FROM HOUSTON.
MARCH15th WILL MARK
MILESTONE AS MARK VANDE HEI WILL
SCOTT KELLY FOR THE LONGEST
SINGLE SPACEFLIGHT.
A FEW DAYS LATER ON MARCH18
TONIGHT SOYUZ MS22 LAUNCHES AND
TO THE SPACE STATION JUST TWO
ORBITS LATER.
THEN, THE CREW IS OUTSIDE OF
THIS SPACE STATION AGAIN ON
MARCH23rd FOR ANOTHER U.S.
SPACEWALK WHERE THEY WILL
REPLACE THE RADIATOR BEAM VALVE.
ON MARCH30th THE UNDOCKING
AND LANDING OF SOYUZ MS-19 WILL
RETURN MARK VANDE HEI AND
RUSSIAN COSMONAUT PYOTR DUBROV
TO EARTH FOLLOWING THIS AMERICAN
RECORD OF 355 DAYS IN SPACE.
AND FINALLY, AT THE END OF THE
MONTH, THE LAUNCH FROM FLORIDA
OF THE MISSION, THE FIRST
ALL-PRIVATE DREW VISIT THE SPACE
STATION.
YOU CAN STAY UPDATED ON
EVERYTHING ON STATION BY
FOLLOWING US ON TWITTER AT SPACE
UNDER SCORE STATION.
THAT IS SPACE TO GROUND NOR
WEEK.
THANKS SO MUCH FOR WATCHING.
WE WILL SEE YOU NEXT.
>> ASTRONAUTS RAJA CHARI AND
KAYLA BARRON HAVE STARTED THE
EARLY PREP RATION FOR THE
SPACEWALK ON MARCH15th.
THE TRUTH THAT IS PREPARATION
FOR A SPACEWALK BEGIN LONG
BEFORE THE CREWMEMBERS EVEN
LAUNCH.
IN THE DEMONSTRATION VIDEO,
ASTRONAUT RICKY ARNOLD SHARES
SOME OF THE TRAINING ASTRONAUTS
GET ON THE GROUND TO BE READY TO
WALK IN SPACE.
>> WELCOME.
I AM RICKY ARNOLD FLIGHT
ENGINEER FROM NASA TODAY WE TALK
ABOUT EXTRA VEHICULAR ACTIVITY
EV.
GOING OUT ON EVA OR SPACEWALK
HAS BEEN THE MOST AMAZING PIECE,
OF MY LIFE AND THE MOST
COMPLICATE AND DANGEROUS THINGS
WE DO DURING HUMAN SPACEFLIGHT.
THERE IS A LOT OF EQUIPMENT TO
PREP AND MAINTAIN AND DO MONTHS
OF TRAINING TO MAKE EACH EVA A
SUCCESS.
IF YOU THINK IT SHOULDN'T BE
COMPLICATED, YOU SHOULD SEE IT
IN ACTION.
LET'S START WITH TRAINING IN HOW
WE GET READY FOR A SPACEWALK.
>> SPACE IS AN EXTREME
ENVIRONMENT THAT PRESENTS MANY
HAZARDS IF WE GO OUTSIDE OF THE
SAFETY OF THE ISS, WE HAVE TO BE
PREPARED.
EVA ARE DESIGNED WITH SAFETY AS
THE UTMOST PRIORITY.
WE ASTRONAUTS SPEND A LOT OF
THEME CLASSROOMS LIKE YOU ARE
NOW LEARNING ABOUT THE HARDWARE
WE WILL BE USING THEN WE GET TO
SPEND A LOT OF TIME TRAINING IN
NASA'S GIANT POOL CALLED THE
NEUTRAL BUOYANCY LAB.
SINCE IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO
STIMULATE MICROGRAPHY TON EARTH
THE NEXT BEST OPTION OF WATER.
6.2MILLIONGALLONS OF IT?
IT IS 40FEET DEEP.
27802FEET IN LENGTH AND
102FEET IN WIDTH A FULL SCALE
WORK MODEL OF ISS WHICH WE NEED
PRACTICE.
WE GET SUITED UP AND WEIGHTED SO
WE ARE NEUTRALLY BOY HAVEN'T
WATT SEVERAL WE DON'T STINK THE
BOTTOM AND DON'T FLOAT SURFACE
IT IS A GREAT WAY TO STIM LATE
THE MICROGRAPHY WE BE WITH
EXPERIENCING.
WE DO SEVERAL DRESS REHEARSALS
OF EVA BEFORE WE LAUNCH AND THIS
GIVES US THE OPPORTUNITY TO
PREPARE FOR ANY ANOMALIES THAT
MAY OCCUR.
WE SPEND AT LEAST FIVE HOURS THE
MBL FOR EVERY ONE HOUR PLANNED
FOR THE SPACEWALK SO WE ARE VERY
WELL PREPARED TO EXECUTE THE
EVA'S ONCE WE ARE IN ORBIT.
ONCE WE ARE UP IN ORBIT THE EVA
PREPARATION CONTINUES.
FIRST WE MUST PERFORM PRE-BRIEF
PROTOCOL TO DISPLACE THE IN THE
TISSUES.
DURING PREBREATH WE BREATH 100%
OXYGEN AND DO LIGHT EXERCISE
HELP PURGE FROM THE BODIES.
DURING PRE-BRIEF WE WILL ALSO
DON THE MOBILITY UNIT OR EMU.
THAT IS FANCY NAME FOR A
SPACESUIT.
THE SPACESUIT IS BASICALLY ITS
OWN SPACECRAFT SHAME SHAPED LAKE
HUMAN AND A RED STRIP STRIPE ON
THE LEG OF ONE ASTRONAUT BUT NOT
THE OTHER SO THE GROUND CAN TELL
WHO IS WHO TO ENSURE SAFETY AT
TIMES WE'LL WEAR OF THE SATURDAY
TEETHERS AND WHERE WE ARE IN
RELATION TO SPACE WALKING BUDDY.
HEY, BUDDY.
HERE IS A FELLOW CREW MEMBER THE
ID ON THE INSIDE OF THIS
AIRLOCK, WATCHING AND
COMMUNICATING WITH US AS EVA
PROGRESSES.
WE ARE ALSO PREPARED FOR SEVERAL
CONTINGENCIES SHOULD THEY OCCUR.
FIRST WE ARE TRAINED ON THE USE
OF A JETPACK THAT CAN USED TO
MANEUVER IN THE EVENT OF
EMERGENCY RESCUE.
IT IS CALLED A SAFIR OR
SIMPLIFIED AID FOR EVA RESCUE.
THE VIEW DURING EVA IS
MAGNIFICENT.
IT IS BEAUTIFUL THROUGHOUT.
ITS ALSO EXTREMELY DANGEROUS BUT
OUR MONTHS OF PREPARATION AND
ALL THE DEDICATED PEOPLE WORK ON
THE GROUND WORKING AROUND THE
CLOCK AND ENSURE ARE SAFE AS
POSSIBLE WHEN WE WORK OUTSIDE OF
THIS ISS.
EVA'S SAY LLOYD US TO BUILD AND
MAINTAIN REPAIR MISSION-CRITICAL
HARDWARE, INVESTIGATE
MALFUNCTIONS, INSTALL NEW
HARDWARE AND THE VIEW
UNBELIEVABLE.
SEE YOU NEXT TIME.
>> SITUATIONAL SPACE STATION
SCIENCE RESEARCH IS BEING USED
TO TEACH HUMANS MORE OF WHAT WE
NEED TO KNOW TO EXPLORE OUT
BEYOND EARTH.
FOR EXAMPLE, MINING COULD OF
FEAR WAY FOR CREWS TO OBTAIN
NEEDED STEALERS ON OTHER
PLANETARY BODIES BUT MICROBE AND
ROCKS INTERACT DIFFERENTLY
OUTSIDE THAN THEY DO HERE AND
THAT MAY AFFECT THE OUTPUT FROM
EXTRA TERRESTRIAL BUY OH MINING
SO THERE IS AN INVESTIGATION ON
THE STATION STUDYING HOW MY JOBS
GROW ON AND HOW THEY ALTER
PLANETARY ROCK.
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION
WILLING SOON HOST MICROBES.
MICROBES GROWING ON THE SUR FACE
OF ROCKS CAN GRADUALLY BREAK
THEM DOWN AND EXTRACT USEFUL
MINERAL AND METALS.
THIS IS A PROCESS CALLED BY OH
MINING.
BIO MINING.
AS WE EXPLORE SPACE WE ARE
SEEKING TO USE BIO MINING TO
STUN INTO SOIL FOR GROWING
PLANTS AND FOOD WHERE YOU BEFORE
WE COULD USE THIS TECHNIQUE IN
PLAN EAT RAILROAD I SETTLEMENTS
WE NEED TO TEST IT IN SPACE.
ON THE SPACE STATION, MY JOBS
WILL GROW ON ROCKS IN
MICROGRAVITY BE A SIM LATED
MARTIAN GRAVITY.
INVESTIGATORS WILL EXAMINE HOW
THREE TYPES OF MICROBES BEHALF
WITHIN PIECES AND EVALUATE HOW
WELL THE DIFFERENT MICROBES
EXACT ELEMENT INTERESTS THE
ROCK.
THE FINDINGS WILL BE COMPARED TO
GROUND BASED RESULTS.
>> WE HOPE TO GAIN IN SIGHTS
INTO HOW MICROBES INTERACT WITH
ROCKS IN MICROGRAPHY AND HOW WE
MIGHT USE THEM IN OUR
EXPLANATION OF DEEP SPACE.
THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION
IS A LABRATORY IN SPACE,
SCIENTISTS CAN THE CONSTANT OF
GRAPH FROM THE EQUATION IN WAYS
THEY CANNOT DO ON EARTH.
IS A LAKE THIS COULD BE USEFUL
IN THE NATURAL SCIENCES AND FOR
EXAMPLE, RESEARCHERS ARE WORKING
TO LEARN HOW SURFACE TENSION AND
CAPILLARY FLOW CAN BE HARNESSED
TO IMPROVE SYSTEMS FROM MOVING
FLUIDS IN MY GROW GRAVITY LIKE
PROVE MOVING PROPONENTS IN FUEL
TANKS DURING SPACE TRAVEL.
>> THE EXTERIOR OF THE
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION IS A
GREAT PLACE FOR SCIENCE OVER ON
THE LABORATORY EXPOSED FA SHRILL
THINK IS A PACKAGE POINTING A
LASER LIGHT DOWN TO TREAT CANOPY
ON THE PLAN NOT TO STUDY EARTH'S
ECOSYSTEMS FOR SCIENTISTS WHO
WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT HOW IT
IS CHANGING.
PRESENTED BY SCIENCE AT NASA.
THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION
OR ISS IS SPORTING A NEW LIGHT
FIXTURE.
THE GLOBAL ECOSYSTEM DYNAMICS
INVESTIGATION OR JEDI WILL BEAM
DOWN LASER LIGHT ON EARTH FROM
THE ORBITING LAB TO TROY REVEAL
MORE ABOUT HOUR ENVIRONMENT AND
HOW IT IS CHANGING.
NASA'S JEDI SENDS LASER PULSES
INTO TREE CAN PITS AND PRECISELY
MEASURE IS LIGHT REFLECTED BACK.
THE TIMING AND INTENSITY OF
LIGHT THAT BOUNCES BACK TO
YESTERDAY'S TELESCOPE WILL
REVEAL THE HEIGHT AND DENSITY OF
TREES AND VEGETATION AND THE
VERTICAL ARRANGEMENT OF THE
LEAVES AND BRANCHES WITHIN THE
OVERALL CANOPY.
DR.RALPH, JEDI PRINCIPAL
INVESTIGATOR AT THE UNIVERSITY
OF MARYLAND SAYS THIS INSTRUMENT
WILL MAP HIGH RESOLUTION IN
THREE DIMENSIONS REVOLUTION ARE
THE WAY RESEARCHES MONITOR THEM.
FOSTERED AREAS ARE IMPORTANT
PART OF OUR PLANET.
NOT ONLY DO FOREST PROVIDE
HABITAT FOR MANY SPECIES AND A
SOURCE OF RAW MATERIALS FOR
HUMAN USE SUCH AS PAPER AND
LUMBER, THEY PLAY A KEY ROAN THE
EARTH'S CARBON CYCLE AND
DEFORESTATION AND FOREST
DEGRADATION IN ADDITION TO OTHER
TYPES OF FOREST DISTURBANCE SUCH
AS FIRE AND INSECT OUTBREAKS,
LEAD TO INCREASES IN ATMOSPHERIC
CARBON DIOXIDE.
FOREST REGROWTH SUCKS THAT
CARBON BACK DOWN TREES AND SOILS
KNOWING HOW FOREST GROW AND
CHANGE OVER TIME, CAN ALLOW US
TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THE
CONTRIBUTION THAT FOREST MAKE TO
EARTH'S CARBON CYCLE AND HELP
PEOPLE BETTER MANAGE THIS
IMPORTANT RESOURCE.
YESTERDAY THE FIRST SPACE FOR
INSTRUMENT STAND TO PERFORM
SUSTAINED MAPPING OF THE SPAES
DISTRIBUTION OF THE CARBON
CONTENT OF FORESTS.
WITHIN OF THE MOST POORLY
QUANTIFIED OF THE CARBON CYCLES
THE NET BALANCE BETWEEN FOREST
DISTURBANCE AND REGROWTH.
JEDI WILL HELP SCIENTIST FILL IN
THIS MISSING PIECE BY REVEALING
THE VERTICAL STRUCK, INFORMATION
WE CANNOT GET WITH SUFFICIENT
ACCURACY ANY OTHER WAY.
JEDI WILL PROVIDE SCIENTISTS
WITH INSIGHTS INTO THE AMOUNT OF
CARBON STORED IN FORESTS WHEN
COMBINED WITH CURRENT AND
HISTORICAL RECORDS OF CHANGES
CAPTURED BY EARTH ORBITING
SATELLITES SUCH AS LANDSAT, THIS
INFORMATION WILL HE ENHANCE THE
ABILITY TO IDENTIFY CHANGES
HAPPENING ACROSS OUR PLANET.
AND RESEARCHES ALSO WILL
INCORPORATE THE OBSERVATIONS
ALONG WITH THOSE OF THE ECO
STRESS INSTRUMENT ON THE STATION
WITH DATA FROM OTHER CURRENT AND
FUTURE EARTH OBSERVING SENSORS
THESE DATA WILL ADDRESS
IMPORTANT QUESTIONS ABOUT
RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN FOREST
STRUCTURE, FUNCTION,
COMPOSITION, AND CHANGES IN
CARBON CONTENT.
COMBINING ALL OF THESE DATA WILL
ALLOW RESEARCHES TO GAIN
UNPRECEDENTED UNDERSTANDING OF
ECOSYSTEM DYNAMICS AND THE REAL
PLANTS AND TREES PLAY IN THE
EARTH CARBON CYCLE THESE COULD
BE USED IN TURN TO IMPROVE
MOTTLES FOR FORECASTING FUTURE
ECOSYSTEM CHANGES ATMOSPHERIC
CARBON DIE OXIDE AND CLIMATE.

>> THE ASTRONAUTS WHO FLEW TO
THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION
ON SPACE THAT'S SPACEX CREW-3
MISSION HAD BEEN WORKING
TOGETHER FOR MORE THAN YEAR
BEFORE THEIR LAUNCH LAST YEAR.
YET YOU MAY BE SURPRISED TO
LEARN THAT THEY DID NOT KNOW
EVERYTHING THAT THERE WAS TO
KNOW ABOUT ONE OF ANOTHER.

>> THE EFFORT TO DESIGN AND
REDUCE THE HARDWARE WE'LL NEED
TO EXPLORE THE MOON ON ART TOW
MISS MISSIONS IS NOT RESTRICTED
JUST TO NASA JOINS IN.
WE HAVE A PROGRAM THAT REACHES
OUT FOR THE PARTICULAR EXPERTISE
OF TODAY'S COLLEGE STUDENTS FOR
THEIR HELP IN DEVELOPING THE
SOFTWARE AND TECHNOLOGY TO
CREATE THOSE NEEDED NEW TOOLS.
TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT THE PROGRAM
IS DOING FOR EXPLORATION AND FOR
STUDENT EDUCATION.
MASS SAYS BUILDING EXCITING NEW
TECHNOLOGIES TO HELP ASTRONAUTS
EXPLORE THE MOON.
AND IT IS TAPPING INTO THE
UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE OF TODAY'S
COLLEGE STUDENTS.
TO CONTRIBUTE RESEARCH TO THOSE
NEW TOOLS.
ONLY A TODAY IS TEST DAY.
NASA ENGINEERS ARE HELPING
EVALUATE SOFTWARE DESIGNED BAY
STUDENTS THE TAX IS TO SEE HOW
THIS TECHNOLOGY CAN HELP DURING
A SPACE MISSION.
IT IS THE CULMINATION OF THE
STUDENT'S HARD WORK ON THE
PROGRAM KNOWN AS SUITS.
SO SUITS IS SPACESUIT USER
INTERFACE TECHNOLOGIES FOR
STUDENTS.
WHAT THAT MEANS IS WE ARE HAVING
STUDENTS DESIGN A GRAPHIC USER
INTERFACE FOR THE SUIT HELMET
BUBBLE.
YOU KNOW, A HEADS UP DISPLAY
WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT IS
FAIRLY FAR OUT FROM THE FACE.
SO MAYBE, MAYBE A COUPLE OF FEET
FURTHER.
WHAM THE STUDENTS ARE USING IS
HEAD MOUNTED DISPLAY AND WE
REALLY KIND OF REFER TO THAT AS
A HEADS ON LIKE IT IS ON THE
HEAD.
AND SO IT IS ONLY MAYBE HALF
INCH OR TWO SO SAY WAY FROM THE
EYE THEN THEY WEAR IT LIKE
GOGGLES AND ALLOWS THEM TO NOT
ONLY SEE THE REAL ENVIRONMENT IN
FRONT OF THEM OR AROUND THEM,
BUT ALSO, OVERLAYS TEXTS OR
IMAGERY IN FRONT OF THEIR EYE,
SOB THEY SEE THAT ON TOP OF THE
REAL ENVIRONMENT.
>> SEEING BOTH THE GRAPHIC
OVERLAY AND THE REAL ENVIRONMENT
IS CALLED AUGMENTED REALITY.
THE CHALLENGE FOR THE STUDENTS
IS TO USE THIS TECHNOLOGY BE OF
HELP DURING ONE OF THE MOST
DIFFICULT TASKS ENCOUNTERED BY
HUMANS IN SPACE.
>> SO EVA OR EXTRA VEHICULAR
ACTIVITY FANCY WORD FOR A
SPACEWALK AT NASA IS IT UP CLAY
CREW MEMBER, LEAVING THEIR
VEHICLE, THEIR SPACECRAFT, IN A
PRESSURIZED SUIT, EVA'S ARE
OFTEN TIMES IF YOU ASKS A THOUGH
TROUT THEY SAY THEY ARE LIKE
DOING A BRAIN SURGERY AND
RUNNING A MARATHON AT THE SAME
TIME.
WHAT WE DO WITH SUITS IS SIM
LATE INTENSE EVA ENVIRONMENT BUT
THEN, WE INTRODUCE AUGMENTED
REALITIES DID PLAY IN HARMONY
WITH THE AUDIO FEED THAT COMES
OVER THE LOOP FROM MISSION
CONTROL.
>> ASTRONAUTS, TODAY, DON'T HAVE
AUGMENTED REALITY VISIBLE INSIDE
OF THIS SPACE HELMET DURING EVA.
THEY RELY ON TRAINING, MISSION
CELL AND IN SOME CASE A SMALL
BOOKLET KNOWN AS A CHECKLIST
SHOULD THEY NEED MORE
INFORMATION.
>> THE SUIT'S PROJECT CHALLENGES
THE STUDENTS TO LOOK FORWARD AND
WONDER, WHAT IF ASTRONAUTS COULD
ACCESS DATA USING THIS
TECHNOLOGY.
WHAT WOULD IT LOOK LIKE?
>> YEAH.
YOU THINK, SUITS IS AN YOU A
AWESOME PROGRAM AND ASK TEENS TO
CREATE SOME KIND OF USER
INTERFACE COULD BE VIRTUAL REAL
THINK OR AUGMENTED REALITY BUT
THE GOAL IS TO BASICALLY BUILD A
TOOL THAT ASTRONAUTS CAN USE
WHEN THEY ARE DOING SPACE
OPERATIONS.
>> STUDENTS COME UP WITH IDEAS
THAT RUN THE GAMUT OF EVA
ACTIVITY AND SUCH AS OPERATING
ONLY PLEX EQUIPMENT, CATALOGS
THE LUNAR SAMPLE, OR NAVIGATING
TO A REMOTE LOCATION.
OUR MAIN GOAL WAS TO BUILD A
MINIMAL LIS TICK AND INTERFACES
THAT IS EASIER TO USE SO WE MAKE
SURE IT ESCALATION OF NATURAL
INPUT LIKE VOICE COMMANDS TO
CONTROL THE EVA SYSTEM.
>> NASA MENTORS AROUND AC DREAM
SPONSORS HELP THE STUDENTS
ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS.
WAS EXTREMELY CONSTRUCTIVE ALL
TOGETHER.
I WAS WOO LIKE TO SAY WE RILED
EACH OTHER UP AND POSITIVITY IN
THE SENSE THAT WE WERE ABLE TO
ACHIEVE GREATER THINGS BECAUSE
EVERY MEETING WE WOULD SAY WHAT
IF WE DO THIS AND THAT.
HEY WOULDN'T IT BE AWESOME SO
OVERALL, WE WERE POSITIVELY
REINFORCING EACH OTHER'S
INTEREST.
>> NASA ENGINEERS EVALUATE THE
STUDENT'S WORK BY TRYING OUT THE
IDEAS IN A SIMULATED SPACEWALK
SO THEY THAT THEY AND THE
STUDENTS SEE WHAT WORKS WITH AND
WHAT NEEDS TWEAKING.
IT US UNIQUE EDUCATIONAL
EXPERIENCE.
>> IT HAS TECHNICAL ISSUES AS
WELL.
IT WAS SURREAL TO SEE THE TOOL
BEING TESTED IN SPACE.
MY FAVORITE PART OF ABOUT
WORKING IS THAT EVERYONE WAS
VERY EXCITED TO LISTENER AND
ALSO SHARE WHAT THEY KNOW AND WE
HAVE DIFFERENT BACKGROUNDS SO BY
THE END OF THE CYCLE WE KNOW
ABOUT IT OR BY PRESENTING OUR
PROJECT.
>> IT COULD HELPS ME GAIN THE
PERSONAL SKILLS AND LEARN THOUGH
WORK WITHIN THE TEAM AND PROLEG
YOU KNOW, CAN TALK ABOUT SYSTEMS
AND YOU KNOW, HELPING ME BE MORE
CONFIDENT MY ABILITIES AND IT IS
GROAT SEE THEM GROW AND GREET
SEE THEM COLLABORATING WITH EACH
OTHER, COLLABORATING WITH
SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTS TO MAKE
DESIGNS FOR EFFECTIVE OR MORE
EFFICIENT.
THE RESEARCH GATHERED IN SUITS
BENEFITS NASA, TOO.
AS IT DEVELOPS THE OWN DESIGNS
FOR POSSIBLE GRAPHIC DISPLAYS
AND ITS FUTURE FORWARD WORK THAT
NATION NOWED.
>> WHEN I ENTERED THIS FIELD OF
AUGMENTED REALITY, THERE WAS
ABOUT ONE PAPER THAT I COULD
REFERENCE WHAT SUITS PROVIDES TO
THE ENGINEERS AT SPACE THAT
REALLY THE ABILITY TO EXPLORE
MANY DIFFERENT DESIGNS TO
EXPLORE MANY CONCEPTS AND REALLY
HAVE A THINK TANK IF YOU WILL
FOR WHAT THE FUTURE THESE
DISPLAYS REALLY LOOK LIKE.
AL THE HARD WORK, TESTING AND
LEARNING POINTS TO A BRIGHT
FUTURE OUTSING THIS TECHNOLOGY.
IT IS DOING SOMETHING THAT I
LOVE AND ALSO SEEING THE VALLEY
THAT WOULD COME OF OF IT.
THAT'S THE SAME FOR MOST OF MY
PEERS WHO WORK HERE.
YOU CAN SEE SOME REAL PASSION
AND WORK ON THE EVERYTHING SO WE
WANT THIS TO WORK.
WE REALLY WANT TECH AND SPACE
EXPLORATION TO BE THE NEXT BIG
THING.
AND THAT WOULD SUPER SATISFYING
AND FULFILLING TO ME AND TO THE
TEAM.
>> THE SOFTWARE FOR THE DISPLACE
IS LIKE GIVING THE CREWMEMBERS
SUPER POWERS AND THAT IS
SOMETHING THAT I LOVE ABOUT IT.
BUT ALSO, GETTING TO ENGAGE WITH
ACADEMIA AND THE TALENT THAT WE
HAVE IN ACADEMIA AND IN UNION
UNITS THAT IS WHAT WE NEED SEE
AND CREATE OF THAT I COMES FROM
IT TO MAKE THESE TOOLS THE BEST
