LANDING OF THE BOEING STARLINER

7
00:00:12,912 --> 00:00:14,114
SPACECRAFT.

8
00:00:14,114 --> 00:00:16,516
WE HAD A FOLLOWING LAUNCH

9
00:00:16,516 --> 00:00:17,951
CAPSULE FROM FLORIDA A FEW DAYS

10
00:00:17,951 --> 00:00:18,385
AGO.

11
00:00:18,385 --> 00:00:19,886

ADMINISTRATOR JIM BRIDENSTINE

16
00:00:26,926 --> 00:00:28,695
AND JIM CHILTON, BOEING SPACE

00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:34,334
PROGRAM.

20
00:00:34,334 --> 00:00:35,835
WE'LL START WITH INDUSTRY

21
00:00:35,835 --> 00:00:37,170
REMARKS AND THEN WE'LL OPEN UP

22
00:00:37,170 --> 00:00:38,872
THE QUESTIONS FROM REPORTERS.

23
00:00:38,872 --> 00:00:40,473
WITH THAT. I'LL TURN IT OVER TO

24
00:00:40,473 --> 00:00:42,509
NASA ADMINISTRATOR JIM

25
00:00:42,509 --> 00:00:43,476
BRIDENSTINE.

26
00:00:43,476 --> 00:00:45,545
>> THANK YOU, BETTINA.

27
00:00:45,545 --> 00:00:47,380
ON FRIDAY AFTER THE SEPARATION

28
00:00:47,380 --> 00:00:49,616
OF THE VEHICLE FROM THE LAUNCH

29
00:00:49,616 --> 00:00:53,420
VEHICLE, WE HAD SOME CHALLENGES

30
00:00:53,420 --> 00:00:54,721
AND I WAS VERY CLEAR A LOT

31
00:00:54,721 --> 00:00:55,488
THINGS WENT RIGHT.

32
00:00:55,488 --> 00:00:57,690
A LOT OF THINGS DID IN FACT GO

33
00:00:57,690 --> 00:00:58,224
RIGHT.

34
00:00:58,224 --> 00:00:59,959
BUT WE HAD A LOT MORE TO DO.

35
00:00:59,959 --> 00:01:01,561
WE HAD TO TEST THE VEHICLE

36
00:01:01,561 --> 00:01:04,431
ITSELF AND TEST ENTRY, DESCENT

37
00:01:04,431 --> 00:01:05,064
AND LANDING.

38
00:01:05,064 --> 00:01:06,266
I CAN TELL YOU THIS MORNING,

39
00:01:06,266 --> 00:01:08,168
WE'RE ALL VERY EXCITED A WHOLE

40
00:01:08,168 --> 00:01:10,804
LOT MORE THINGS DID GO RIGHT,

41
00:01:10,804 --> 00:01:14,607
VERY, VERY, DEVELOP WELL.

42
00:01:14,607 --> 00:01:15,942
SOME OF THE HARDEST PARTS OF THE

43
00:01:15,942 --> 00:01:17,544
MISSION HAVE PROVEN TO BE VERY

44
00:01:17,544 --> 00:01:21,981
CAPABLE, SO THAT'S ALL POSITIVE.

45
00:01:21,981 --> 00:01:23,516
YOU LOOK AT THE LANDING, IT WAS

46
00:01:23,516 --> 00:01:26,586
AN ABSOLUTE BULLSEYE.

47
00:01:26,586 --> 00:01:30,924
BETTER THAN ANYBODY ANTICIPATED.

48
00:01:30,924 --> 00:01:32,459
SO THAT'S GOOD FOR AGENCY AND

49
00:01:32,459 --> 00:01:33,293
BOEING AND UNITED STATES OF

50
00:01:33,293 --> 00:01:34,727
AMERICA.

51
00:01:34,727 --> 00:01:37,030
SO, WHEN WE THINK ABOUT THE

52
00:01:37,030 --> 00:01:38,198
END-TO-END TEST, WHICH WE JUST

53
00:01:38,198 --> 00:01:41,134
WENT THROUGH, YOU KNOW, YOU HAVE

54
00:01:41,134 --> 00:01:41,835
THE LAUNCH.

55
00:01:41,835 --> 00:01:43,203
THE LAUNCH IS A VERY, VERY

56
00:01:43,203 --> 00:01:44,304
DIFFICULT PART OF THE MISSION.

57
00:01:44,304 --> 00:01:45,839
AND WE PROVED THAT WE COULD

58
00:01:45,839 --> 00:01:49,542
LAUNCH A STARLINER ON AN ATLAS 5

59
00:01:49,542 --> 00:01:51,611
ROCKET AND CENTAUR UPPER STAGE

60
00:01:51,611 --> 00:01:55,515
WITH TWO RL10'S AT A LOWER

61
00:01:55,515 --> 00:01:57,350
TRAJECTORY THAN IT NORMALLY HAS

62
00:01:57,350 --> 00:01:59,953
THAT HASN'T BEEN DONE.

63
00:01:59,953 --> 00:02:02,755
TWO RL10 ENGINES HAS NEVER BEEN

64
00:02:02,755 --> 00:02:04,791
DONE SINCE 2004 AND NEVER THIS

65
00:02:04,791 --> 00:02:10,897
LOW OF PRO TRAJECTORY FOR HUGH

66
00:02:10,897 --> 00:02:12,065
HAS AN SPACEFLIGHT.

67
00:02:12,065 --> 00:02:13,333
WE HAD THE CHALLENGE WITH THE

68
00:02:13,333 --> 00:02:15,568
MISSION LAST TIME WITH WHICH

69
00:02:15,568 --> 00:02:17,871
RESULTED THE SPACECRAFT

70
00:02:17,871 --> 00:02:19,072
BELIEVING IT WAS IN A PLACE

71
00:02:19,072 --> 00:02:20,640
WHERE IT WAS AND TRYING TO MAKE

72
00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:22,509
CORRECTIONS TO GET WHERE IT

73
00:02:22,509 --> 00:02:24,711
THOUGHT IT SHOULD BE.

74
00:02:24,711 --> 00:02:27,313
WE GOT CONTROL OF IT AND FLEW IT

75
00:02:27,313 --> 00:02:28,681
VERY SUCCESSFULLY.

76
00:02:28,681 --> 00:02:30,216
WE DID NOT MAKE IT TO THE

77
00:02:30,216 --> 00:02:30,917
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION AND

78
00:02:30,917 --> 00:02:33,520
NOT DOCK BUT THE SPACECRAFT FLEW

79
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:34,721
EXCEPTIONALLY WELL AND OF COURSE

80
00:02:34,721 --> 00:02:37,056
THEN WE BROUGHT IT HOME.

81
00:02:37,056 --> 00:02:39,692
FOR THE FIRST TIME LANDING A

82
00:02:39,692 --> 00:02:42,395
CAPSULE ON LAND IN THE

83
00:02:42,395 --> 00:02:44,531
UNITED STATES.

84
00:02:44,531 --> 00:02:48,001
WE HAVE DONE IT IN THIS NATION

85
00:02:48,001 --> 00:02:52,038
BUT WE PINPOINT LANDED IT.

86
00:02:52,038 --> 00:02:53,973
AMAZING HOW THAT WAS

87
00:02:53,973 --> 00:02:54,541
ACCOMPLISHED.

88
00:02:54,541 --> 00:02:56,509
A LOT OF THINGS WENT RIGHT ON

89
00:02:56,509 --> 00:02:59,012
FRIDAY AND A LOT MORE THINGS

90
00:02:59,012 --> 00:02:59,679
WENT RIGHT TODAY.

91
00:02:59,679 --> 00:03:00,847
WE'RE EXCITED FOR THE FUTURE.

92
00:03:00,847 --> 00:03:02,482
THIS IS PART OF THE COMMERCIAL

93
00:03:02,482 --> 00:03:02,949
CREW PROGRAM.

94
00:03:02,949 --> 00:03:05,919
WE NEED TO HAVE THIS SIMILAR

95
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,620
REDUNDANCY FOR HOW WE FLY

96
00:03:07,620 --> 00:03:08,354
ASTRONAUTS INTO SPACE.

97
00:03:08,354 --> 00:03:10,256
WE HAVE TWO COMMERCIAL PROVIDERS

98
00:03:10,256 --> 00:03:11,991
AND THIS IS YET THE NEXT STEP IN

99
00:03:11,991 --> 00:03:16,663
THIS EVOLUTION TO GET A

100
00:03:16,663 --> 00:03:18,531
COMMERCIAL CREW CAPABILITY FOR

101
00:03:18,531 --> 00:03:19,732
OUR NATION AND END RESULT IS

102
00:03:19,732 --> 00:03:23,169
COMMERCIAL HABITATION AND

103
00:03:23,169 --> 00:03:24,571
COMMERCIAL CREW AND RESUPPLY

104
00:03:24,571 --> 00:03:27,340
WHERE NASA CAN BE ONE CUSTOMER

105
00:03:27,340 --> 00:03:28,942
OF MANY CUSTOMERS.

106
00:03:28,942 --> 00:03:30,310
WE WANT TO BE A CUSTOMER.

107
00:03:30,310 --> 00:03:34,147
WE VERY WELL BE A TENANT

108
00:03:34,147 --> 00:03:35,048
CUSTOMER FOR A PERIOD OF TIME

109
00:03:35,048 --> 00:03:36,849
BUT WE WANT TO GET TO THE POINT

110
00:03:36,849 --> 00:03:38,518
WHERE WE ARE A CUSTOMER AND

111
00:03:38,518 --> 00:03:39,819
NUMEROUS PROVIDERS THAT ARE

112
00:03:39,819 --> 00:03:41,621
COMPETING AGAINST EACH OTHER ON

113
00:03:41,621 --> 00:03:43,089
CONSTANT INNOVATION AND DRIVING

114
00:03:43,089 --> 00:03:45,258
DOWN COST AND INCREASING ACCESS

115
00:03:45,258 --> 00:03:47,493
AND TODAY WAS A GREAT MILESTONE

116
00:03:47,493 --> 00:03:51,331
IN THAT EVENT.

117
00:03:51,331 --> 00:03:53,066
WITH THAT I'LL TURN IT OVER TO

118
00:03:53,066 --> 00:03:55,468
JIM CHILTON.

119
00:03:55,468 --> 00:03:56,903
>> I'LL GIVE YOU A LITTLE

120
00:03:56,903 --> 00:03:57,637
MISSION SUMMARY.

121
00:03:57,637 --> 00:04:00,306
WE ARE FIRST AND FOREMOST

122
00:04:00,306 --> 00:04:01,274
PLEASED HOW THIS CAME TOGETHER.

123
00:04:01,274 --> 00:04:04,277
THE SHOULDER TO SHOULDER BOEING

124
00:04:04,277 --> 00:04:06,679
NASA TEAM AND THE COLLABORATION

125
00:04:06,679 --> 00:04:07,714
IT WAS FANTASTIC.

126
00:04:07,714 --> 00:04:10,383
OF COURSE THE BIG PIECES OF THE

127
00:04:10,383 --> 00:04:13,252
MISSION GOT A BRAND NEW HUMAN

128
00:04:13,252 --> 00:04:15,321
RATED ATLAS 5 WHICH IS NOT THE

129
00:04:15,321 --> 00:04:17,056
SAME THING AND FLYING A

130
00:04:17,056 --> 00:04:20,927
DIFFERENT TRAJECTORY AND SHAPE

131
00:04:20,927 --> 00:04:23,329
YOU CAN ONLY DO THAT AT SCALE

132
00:04:23,329 --> 00:04:24,998
AND THAT WENT DIFFERENT.

133
00:04:24,998 --> 00:04:27,233
WE GOT A SURPRISING START WE

134
00:04:27,233 --> 00:04:28,701
TOOK CARE OF THAT AND WERE ABLE

135
00:04:28,701 --> 00:04:33,072
TO SHOW THAT IT SHOWS ATTITUDE

136
00:04:33,072 --> 00:04:36,209
AND KEEPS OUR PEOPLE SAFE AND

137
00:04:36,209 --> 00:04:37,844
CABIN TEMP AND PRESSURES WERE

138
00:04:37,844 --> 00:04:38,177
TERRIFIC.

139
00:04:38,177 --> 00:04:39,812
OF COURSE RETURN -- YESTERDAY I

140
00:04:39,812 --> 00:04:41,147
MENTIONED RETURN IS SOMETHING

141
00:04:41,147 --> 00:04:42,415
THAT YOU CAN'T REALLY TEST.

142
00:04:42,415 --> 00:04:45,685
YOU GOT TO PUT YOUR SHIELD ON

143
00:04:45,685 --> 00:04:49,756
AND GO THROUGH THE HEAT SCHEME.

144
00:04:49,756 --> 00:04:50,823
TODAY WE COULDN'T HAVE GOTTEN

145
00:04:50,823 --> 00:04:51,357
ANY BETTER.

146
00:04:51,357 --> 00:04:55,495
WE GOT GUIDANCE LOCKED AND UNDER

147
00:04:55,495 --> 00:04:57,263
AND TOUCHED DOWN ON THE CENTER

148
00:04:57,263 --> 00:04:58,631
OF THE BULLSEYE AS JIM

149
00:04:58,631 --> 00:04:59,132
MENTIONED.

150
00:04:59,132 --> 00:05:01,868
CREWS ARE ON SIGHT.

151
00:05:01,868 --> 00:05:04,303
WE HAD AN HOUR OF TARGET TO GET

152
00:05:04,303 --> 00:05:05,672
THE HATCH OPEN AND IT WAS AN

153
00:05:05,672 --> 00:05:06,939
HOUR AND TWO MINUTES.

154
00:05:06,939 --> 00:05:07,907
VERY PROUD OF THAT TEAM.

155
00:05:07,907 --> 00:05:09,008
THEY WERE OUT THERE IN THE COLD

156
00:05:09,008 --> 00:05:09,642
READY.

157
00:05:09,642 --> 00:05:11,210
WE LANDED WITHOUT A LOT OF

158
00:05:11,210 --> 00:05:11,577
LIGHT.

159
00:05:11,577 --> 00:05:13,079
ANOTHER GREAT DEMONSTRATION.

160
00:05:13,079 --> 00:05:15,615
AND SO, FROM AN OVERALL

161
00:05:15,615 --> 00:05:18,117
PERSPECTIVE WE ARE JUST AS

162
00:05:18,117 --> 00:05:20,219
PLEASED AS WE CAN BE WITH THE

163
00:05:20,219 --> 00:05:21,354
DESIGN.

164
00:05:21,354 --> 00:05:24,090
ROSIE THE ROCKETEER, I HAD A

165
00:05:24,090 --> 00:05:27,660
FEW QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT.

166
00:05:27,660 --> 00:05:30,963
ROSIE THE ROCKETEER HAD ABOUT

167
00:05:30,963 --> 00:05:33,332
58-65 DEGREES CABIN TEMPERATURE

168
00:05:33,332 --> 00:05:36,402
AND 51% HUMIDITY AND THAT WAS AS

169
00:05:36,402 --> 00:05:38,805
LANDED SO RE-ENTRY DID NOT

170
00:05:38,805 --> 00:05:40,273
DISRUPT THAT AND OF COURSE

171
00:05:40,273 --> 00:05:43,710
CUSTOM WILL BE IMPORTANT.

172
00:05:43,710 --> 00:05:45,845
AND THE DESIGN HELD UP REALLY

173
00:05:45,845 --> 00:05:47,980
WELL, ALMOST AS WELL AS THE

174
00:05:47,980 --> 00:05:51,084
TEAM.

175
00:05:51,084 --> 00:05:52,318
>> I'LL LEVEL DOWN ON WHAT YOU

176
00:05:52,318 --> 00:05:53,119
WERE TALKING ABOUT THE TEAM.

177
00:05:53,119 --> 00:05:54,987
I HAD A MEETING WITH THE FLIGHT

178
00:05:54,987 --> 00:05:55,521
DIRECTORS.

179
00:05:55,521 --> 00:05:57,557
RICHARD JONES WAS THE FLIGHT

180
00:05:57,557 --> 00:05:59,592
DIRECTOR FOR LAUNCH AND RE-ENTRY

181
00:05:59,592 --> 00:06:02,361
AND HE SAID THE TEAM COLLAPSED.

182
00:06:02,361 --> 00:06:05,264
THE TEAM LITERALLY BECAME ONE

183
00:06:05,264 --> 00:06:07,033
AND NOBODY WORE A BADGE.

184
00:06:07,033 --> 00:06:09,135
THE BOEING PEOPLE DID NOT WEAR A

185
00:06:09,135 --> 00:06:10,369
BADGE AND THE NASA PEOPLE DID

186
00:06:10,369 --> 00:06:11,437
NOT WEAR A BADGE.

187
00:06:11,437 --> 00:06:13,473
IT WAS JUST ABOUT MISSION

188
00:06:13,473 --> 00:06:14,540
ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND BECAUSE OF

189
00:06:14,540 --> 00:06:16,642
THAT THIS ENDED UP BEING A VERY

190
00:06:16,642 --> 00:06:17,977
POSITIVE TEST FLIGHT.

191
00:06:17,977 --> 00:06:20,680
>> THAT'S GREAT TO HEAR,

192
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:25,918
RICHARD.

193
00:06:25,918 --> 00:06:27,186
BEING SHOULDER TO SHOULDER WITH

194
00:06:27,186 --> 00:06:29,021
US AND US BEING COMPLETELY CLEAR

195
00:06:29,021 --> 00:06:30,490
ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON IS A BIG

196
00:06:30,490 --> 00:06:31,691
PART OF THIS MISSION.

197
00:06:31,691 --> 00:06:34,827
IT WAS A FLIGHT TEST, SO THERE'S

198
00:06:34,827 --> 00:06:36,162
TECHNICAL DETAILS THAT CAN BE

199
00:06:36,162 --> 00:06:36,662
GONE THROUGH.

200
00:06:36,662 --> 00:06:38,831
AS YOU ENTER A FLIGHT TEST YOU

201
00:06:38,831 --> 00:06:40,032
HAVE A LIST OF OBJECTIVES.

202
00:06:40,032 --> 00:06:42,635
WE CAN'T CONFIRM THEM ALL.

203
00:06:42,635 --> 00:06:44,370
IF YOU WENT STRAIGHT DOWN THE

204
00:06:44,370 --> 00:06:46,339
CHECKLIST WE WOULD BE LOW 60%

205
00:06:46,339 --> 00:06:46,939
RIGHT NOW.

206
00:06:46,939 --> 00:06:48,674
INSIDE THE CAPSULE WE HAVE DATA

207
00:06:48,674 --> 00:06:50,143
RECORDERS AND THE DATA IS NOT

208
00:06:50,143 --> 00:06:51,811
SENT BACK HOME THROUGH

209
00:06:51,811 --> 00:06:52,178
TELEMETRY.

210
00:06:52,178 --> 00:06:54,747
THINGS LIKE TEMPERATURE SENSORS

211
00:06:54,747 --> 00:06:57,884
ON THE HULL AND GAUGES TO SEE

212
00:06:57,884 --> 00:07:00,052
BENDING AND WHAT KIND OF

213
00:07:00,052 --> 00:07:02,255
SHOCKAGES THERE ARE SENSORS IN

214
00:07:02,255 --> 00:07:05,224
THE SEAT FOR ROSIE THE

215
00:07:05,224 --> 00:07:06,492
ROCKETEER.

216
00:07:06,492 --> 00:07:08,928
SOME OF THOSE WE CAN GET A WIDE

217
00:07:08,928 --> 00:07:09,529
SENSE.

218
00:07:09,529 --> 00:07:11,664
IT'S ABOUT A 10 DAY TRANSIT AND

219
00:07:11,664 --> 00:07:14,200
COUPLE OF DAYS ON EITHER END.

220
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:15,768
IF I WAS GOING TO INSURE SHALL

221
00:07:15,768 --> 00:07:18,171
HOW THAT WILL COME OUT FROM

222
00:07:18,171 --> 00:07:20,072
CABIN TEMPS AND HOW PRISTINE THE

223
00:07:20,072 --> 00:07:21,941
VEHICLE LOOKS I WOULD SAY WE'RE

224
00:07:21,941 --> 00:07:24,577
PROBABLY IN THE 85-90% RANGE OF

225
00:07:24,577 --> 00:07:26,813
OUR TEST OBJECTIVES AND ANOTHER

226
00:07:26,813 --> 00:07:28,314
SUBJECTIVE OBSERVATION WE FIND

227
00:07:28,314 --> 00:07:30,850
VERY ENCOURAGING IS THE VESSEL

228
00:07:30,850 --> 00:07:32,885
LOOKS GREAT AND THE GROUND

229
00:07:32,885 --> 00:07:36,923
CRUISE, CHRIS, NICOLE THEY'RE

230
00:07:36,923 --> 00:07:39,091
TELLING US THERE IS HARDLY ANY

231
00:07:39,091 --> 00:07:40,726
CHARRING AND PERFECT ON THE AIR

232
00:07:40,726 --> 00:07:44,630
BAGS AND THAT BOTH WELL.

233
00:07:44,630 --> 00:07:45,698
>> THAT'S, JIM.

234
00:07:45,698 --> 00:07:47,900
FROM A COMMERCIAL CREW

235
00:07:47,900 --> 00:07:50,803
PERSPECTIVE COMING OVER FROM THE

236
00:07:50,803 --> 00:07:52,672
CONTROL CENTER INCREDIBLY HAPPY

237
00:07:52,672 --> 00:07:55,308
AND LOTS OF SMILES CELEBRATING A

238
00:07:55,308 --> 00:07:56,976
GREAT MISSION AND GREAT TEST

239
00:07:56,976 --> 00:07:57,276
FLIGHT.

240
00:07:57,276 --> 00:07:59,278
I WOULD SAY THE TEAM DID JUST A

241
00:07:59,278 --> 00:08:00,479
TREMENDOUS JOB NOT ONLY DURING

242
00:08:00,479 --> 00:08:02,048
THIS FLIGHT BUT IF YOU LOOK BACK

243
00:08:02,048 --> 00:08:03,516
AT ALL THE YEARS OF PREPARATION

244
00:08:03,516 --> 00:08:05,218
TO GET THIS MISSION READY TO GO,

245
00:08:05,218 --> 00:08:07,720
THIS TEST FLIGHT, I WOULD SAY

246
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,590
THE TEAM CAME TOGETHER IN TERMS

247
00:08:10,590 --> 00:08:12,258
OF PRE PLANNING THE FLIGHT, WHAT

248
00:08:12,258 --> 00:08:14,560
YOU FIND SOMETIMES IS WHEN YOU

249
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:15,761
EXECUTE A FLIGHT DIFFERENTLY

250
00:08:15,761 --> 00:08:19,098
THAN PLANNED THAT TEAM COMES

251
00:08:19,098 --> 00:08:21,067
TOGETHER IN A UNIQUE WAY AND I

252
00:08:21,067 --> 00:08:22,668
ECHO WHAT JIM SAID, WHAT YOU SEE

253
00:08:22,668 --> 00:08:25,271
IS THAT THE NASA TEAM AND NASA

254
00:08:25,271 --> 00:08:26,505
ENGINEERS AND FLIGHT CONTROL

255
00:08:26,505 --> 00:08:27,974
TEAM, THE BOEING TEAM WORKING

256
00:08:27,974 --> 00:08:29,609
SIDE BY SIDE TO SOLVE PROBLEMS

257
00:08:29,609 --> 00:08:31,844
IN REALTIME AND COME UP WITH

258
00:08:31,844 --> 00:08:33,746
INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS TO KEEP

259
00:08:33,746 --> 00:08:35,081
DECISIONS AHEAD OF THEM AND END

260
00:08:35,081 --> 00:08:38,017
UP LIKE TODAY WHERE WE HAD A

261
00:08:38,017 --> 00:08:40,987
SUCCESSFUL DEORBIT BURN AND

262
00:08:40,987 --> 00:08:41,287
LANDING.

263
00:08:41,287 --> 00:08:42,688
THE NUMBER ONE OBJECTIVE WAS

264
00:08:42,688 --> 00:08:46,058
SUCCESSFUL DEORBIT RE-ENTRY AND

265
00:08:46,058 --> 00:08:46,392
LANDING.

266
00:08:46,392 --> 00:08:47,360
WE DID THAT TODAY.

267
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,762
THE VEHICLE FLEW PHENOMENALLY

268
00:08:49,762 --> 00:08:52,265
AND ALL THEY WENT EXACTLY AS

269
00:08:52,265 --> 00:08:52,765
PLANNED.

270
00:08:52,765 --> 00:08:54,467
THE BURN WAS PLANNED AND

271
00:08:54,467 --> 00:08:56,135
SEPARATION OF THE SERVICE MODULE

272
00:08:56,135 --> 00:08:57,436
WENT AS PLANNED.

273
00:08:57,436 --> 00:08:59,839
IF YOU LOOK AT THE AND 30 ITSELF

274
00:08:59,839 --> 00:09:01,807
REALLY COMPLICATED.

275
00:09:01,807 --> 00:09:03,709
MAYBE THE MOST COMPLICATED FOR

276
00:09:03,709 --> 00:09:05,411
THIS WHOLE TEST FLIGHT AND

277
00:09:05,411 --> 00:09:07,747
SEQUENCE OF 80 DIFFERENT PYROS

278
00:09:07,747 --> 00:09:10,149
THAT HAVE TO PUT THE SEPARATE

279
00:09:10,149 --> 00:09:15,388
THE BASE HEAT SHIELD AND CREW

280
00:09:15,388 --> 00:09:17,123
MODULE AND DEPLOY THE PARACHUTE

281
00:09:17,123 --> 00:09:18,391
ALL THAT WENT WELL.

282
00:09:18,391 --> 00:09:21,027
THE VEHICLE CONTROLLED ITSELF

283
00:09:21,027 --> 00:09:21,627
PERFECTLY.

284
00:09:21,627 --> 00:09:23,396
IF I LOOK BACK ON THIS YEAR, WE

285
00:09:23,396 --> 00:09:25,498
HAD A TREMENDOUS YEAR, FLOWN TWO

286
00:09:25,498 --> 00:09:27,400
ORBIT TEST FLIGHTS IN

287
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,303
PREPARATION FOR THE CREW

288
00:09:30,303 --> 00:09:32,038
MISSIONS NEXT YEAR AND FLEW A

289
00:09:32,038 --> 00:09:34,206
TEST IN NOVEMBER WITH BOEING AND

290
00:09:34,206 --> 00:09:35,675
WE HAVE ALL THE DATA FROM THESE

291
00:09:35,675 --> 00:09:38,978
TWO ORBIT TEST FLIGHTS TO SET US

292
00:09:38,978 --> 00:09:39,245
UP.

293
00:09:39,245 --> 00:09:41,781
AND EARLY NEXT YEAR WE'LL TURN

294
00:09:41,781 --> 00:09:44,517
TO AN INFLIGHT ABORT TEST FOR

295
00:09:44,517 --> 00:09:44,917
SPACEX.

296
00:09:44,917 --> 00:09:48,054
WE'RE SETTING OURSELVES UP FOR

297
00:09:48,054 --> 00:09:50,222
NEXT YEAR AND I COULDN'T BE MORE

298
00:09:50,222 --> 00:09:51,791
PROUD OF THE TEAM FROM ACROSS

299
00:09:51,791 --> 00:09:52,725
THE COUNTRY.

300
00:09:52,725 --> 00:09:54,026
BOEING, NASA, ALL THE

301
00:09:54,026 --> 00:09:55,227
CONTRACTORS WITH THE HOLIDAYS IN

302
00:09:55,227 --> 00:09:56,362
FRONT OF THEM THEY DID A

303
00:09:56,362 --> 00:09:57,129
TREMENDOUS JOB.

304
00:09:57,129 --> 00:09:59,899
SO MY HAT'S OFF TO THEM.

305
00:09:59,899 --> 00:10:01,000
>> GREAT, THANK YOU SO MUCH.

306
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:02,401
WE'LL NOW OPEN IT UP FOR

307
00:10:02,401 --> 00:10:02,802
QUESTIONS.

308
00:10:02,802 --> 00:10:04,136
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ASK A

309
00:10:04,136 --> 00:10:07,974
QUESTION DURING THE Q & A PRESS

310
00:10:07,974 --> 00:10:11,177
STAR 1 TO BE ADDED TO THE CUE.

311
00:10:11,177 --> 00:10:12,812
WITH THAT WE'LL START WITH

312
00:10:12,812 --> 00:10:14,513
QUESTIONS HERE.

313
00:10:14,513 --> 00:10:15,448
>> DID MORNING.

314
00:10:15,448 --> 00:10:19,452
ERIC BERGER.

315
00:10:19,452 --> 00:10:20,953
EITHER FOR EITHER ONE OF THE

316
00:10:20,953 --> 00:10:21,787
JIMS.

317
00:10:21,787 --> 00:10:27,226
FIRST OF ALL, WAS ENTRY AND

318
00:10:27,226 --> 00:10:28,794
DESCENT AND LANDING THE MOST

319
00:10:28,794 --> 00:10:29,362
DIFFICULT?

320
00:10:29,362 --> 00:10:30,629
AND SECOND OF ALL WAS THERE

321
00:10:30,629 --> 00:10:32,298
ANYTHING YOU SAW OVER THE LAST

322
00:10:32,298 --> 00:10:34,967
COUPLE DAYS BESIDES THE MISSION

323
00:10:34,967 --> 00:10:36,369
LAPSE TIMING PROBLEM THAT GAVE

324
00:10:36,369 --> 00:10:37,837
YOU ANY CONCERN THAT YOU'LL HAVE

325
00:10:37,837 --> 00:10:39,105
TO GO BACK AND LOOK AT THE DATA

326
00:10:39,105 --> 00:10:41,040
AND STUDY AND UNDERSTAND?

327
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,477
>> YES, I'D SAY FROM A NASA

328
00:10:44,477 --> 00:10:45,244
PERSPECTIVE WHEN WE HAVE A

329
00:10:45,244 --> 00:10:46,879
CHALLENGE WITH MISSION ELAPSE

330
00:10:46,879 --> 00:10:48,447
TIME THAT'S TIED TO THE SOFTWARE

331
00:10:48,447 --> 00:10:50,016
THAT WE WHETHER USING, THAT

332
00:10:50,016 --> 00:10:53,986
GIVES US REASON TO THINK WE NEED

333
00:10:53,986 --> 00:10:55,755
TO GO BACK AND LOOK AT A LOT OF

334
00:10:55,755 --> 00:10:56,422
DIFFERENT THINGS.

335
00:10:56,422 --> 00:10:59,859
MAKE NO MISTAKE, WE HAVE

336
00:10:59,859 --> 00:11:02,061
OBJECTIVES THAT WE NEED TO MEET.

337
00:11:02,061 --> 00:11:04,964
TO YOUR FIRST QUESTION, ENTRY,

338
00:11:04,964 --> 00:11:06,632
DESCENT AND LANDING OF COURSE

339
00:11:06,632 --> 00:11:08,067
PROBABLY -- THE NUMBER ONE

340
00:11:08,067 --> 00:11:09,101
OBJECTIVE AND ONE OF THE MOST

341
00:11:09,101 --> 00:11:13,272
DIFFICULT PHASES OF THE FLIGHT.

342
00:11:13,272 --> 00:11:15,975
I WOULD ALSO SAY THAT WE WILL --

343
00:11:15,975 --> 00:11:17,777
WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO GO BACK.

344
00:11:17,777 --> 00:11:19,078
WE HAVE A LOT OF DATA TO REVIEW

345
00:11:19,078 --> 00:11:20,379
AND A LOT OF INFORMATION THAT WE

346
00:11:20,379 --> 00:11:24,784
NEED TO COLLECT, AND WHEN YOU'RE

347
00:11:24,784 --> 00:11:26,218
SO FOCUSSED ON THE MISSION

348
00:11:26,218 --> 00:11:27,620
ITSELF OR THE FLIGHT TEST

349
00:11:27,620 --> 00:11:30,389
ITSELF, WE'RE NOT GOING THROUGH

350
00:11:30,389 --> 00:11:33,192
AND EVALUATING EVERYTHING IN

351
00:11:33,192 --> 00:11:34,193
REAL TIME.

352
00:11:34,193 --> 00:11:36,095
NOW WE NEED TO GO BACK AND DO A

353
00:11:36,095 --> 00:11:38,364
REVIEW OF EVERYTHING FROM START

354
00:11:38,364 --> 00:11:39,065
TO FINISH.

355
00:11:39,065 --> 00:11:41,067
WE MIGHT FIND SOMETHING.

356
00:11:41,067 --> 00:11:43,335
BUT THAT'S WHY WE TEST.

357
00:11:43,335 --> 00:11:46,038
>> THE TRICKIEST THING ABOUT

358
00:11:46,038 --> 00:11:46,939
ENTRY THE ONLY PLACE YOU CAN

359
00:11:46,939 --> 00:11:51,544
TEST IS WHEN YOU GO EXECUTE

360
00:11:51,544 --> 00:11:52,912
THROUGH THE ATMOSPHERE.

361
00:11:52,912 --> 00:11:54,980
THERE IS NO GOOD WAY TO DO THAT

362
00:11:54,980 --> 00:11:56,682
AND TEST END TO END ALL THE

363
00:11:56,682 --> 00:11:58,084
SYSTEMS WITHOUT FLYING IT

364
00:11:58,084 --> 00:11:59,218
THROUGH THE ATMOSPHERE.

365
00:11:59,218 --> 00:12:00,786
JUST LIKE AN AIRPLANE.

366
00:12:00,786 --> 00:12:02,621
WHEN YOU HAVE A NEW BRAND NEW

367
00:12:02,621 --> 00:12:03,923
AIRCRAFT, YOU HAVE TO GO TAKE IT

368
00:12:03,923 --> 00:12:06,058
OUT AND PUT IT THROUGH ITS

369
00:12:06,058 --> 00:12:08,027
VARIOUS PACES WHERE IT'S GOING

370
00:12:08,027 --> 00:12:08,527
TO FLY.

371
00:12:08,527 --> 00:12:09,662
SAME THING WITH THE SPACECRAFT

372
00:12:09,662 --> 00:12:11,197
AND THAT'S WHAT WE DID TODAY.

373
00:12:11,197 --> 00:12:12,731
IT WAS VERY HAPPY WITH THE DATA.

374
00:12:12,731 --> 00:12:16,602
I THINK THE ENTRY LOOKS SUPERB.

375
00:12:16,602 --> 00:12:18,037
>> I WOULD ADD THAT THERE'S SOME

376
00:12:18,037 --> 00:12:19,138
THINGS YOU MIGHT EXPECT THAT

377
00:12:19,138 --> 00:12:20,372
WE'LL GO DO.

378
00:12:20,372 --> 00:12:22,741
ALL THE CABIN DATA, THIS WAS A

379
00:12:22,741 --> 00:12:24,343
FLIGHT TEST, SO WE SAID HERE'S

380
00:12:24,343 --> 00:12:26,011
WHAT WE THINK IT WILL EXPERIENCE

381
00:12:26,011 --> 00:12:27,480
AND WE'LL LOOK AT ALL THE

382
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,148
TEMPERATURES AND PRESSURES AND

383
00:12:29,148 --> 00:12:30,516
FAN SPEEDS AND WE'LL PROBABLY

384
00:12:30,516 --> 00:12:31,250
ADJUST THOSE.

385
00:12:31,250 --> 00:12:32,885
THE CONTROL LIMITS, HOW MUCH

386
00:12:32,885 --> 00:12:34,520
PRESSURE DO WE ALLOW IN THIS

387
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,089
MANIFOLD VERSUS THAT MANIFOLD,

388
00:12:37,089 --> 00:12:38,724
IT WAS IN OUR PLAN TO TWEAK

389
00:12:38,724 --> 00:12:39,024
THOSE.

390
00:12:39,024 --> 00:12:41,193
FOR COMPLETENESS WE GOT TO GO DO

391
00:12:41,193 --> 00:12:41,494
THAT.

392
00:12:41,494 --> 00:12:42,761
ONE THAT WILL BE OF INTEREST TO

393
00:12:42,761 --> 00:12:48,000
US IS -- AS THE CREW MODULE

394
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,035
FLIES SEPARATE FROM THE SERVICE

395
00:12:50,035 --> 00:12:52,304
MODULE, DEPENDING ON WHAT ORBIT

396
00:12:52,304 --> 00:12:54,673
YOU'RE COMING IN FROM, IT TELLS

397
00:12:54,673 --> 00:12:56,509
HE, HERE'S THE BURN YOU NEED DO

398
00:12:56,509 --> 00:12:58,511
AND BASED ON WHERE YOU TAKE ME

399
00:12:58,511 --> 00:12:59,645
HERE'S THE BURN YOU NEED TO DO

400
00:12:59,645 --> 00:13:01,313
TO DISPOSE OF YOURSELF.

401
00:13:01,313 --> 00:13:03,048
BECAUSE WE WERE CHANGING THE RED

402
00:13:03,048 --> 00:13:05,317
LINES ON THE THRUSTERS DURING

403
00:13:05,317 --> 00:13:07,086
FLIGHT VERSUS AFTER WE GOT SOME

404
00:13:07,086 --> 00:13:08,287
GOOD PRACTICE ON THAT AND WE

405
00:13:08,287 --> 00:13:09,855
WOULD OPTIMIZE THAT DIFFERENTLY.

406
00:13:09,855 --> 00:13:10,990
ALTHOUGH FLIGHT CONTROL TEAMS

407
00:13:10,990 --> 00:13:13,492
DID A FANTASTIC JOB AND WE GOT

408
00:13:13,492 --> 00:13:17,930
EARLIER PLANS HOW QUICKLY WE

409
00:13:17,930 --> 00:13:18,497
COULD DO THAT.

410
00:13:18,497 --> 00:13:21,467
BUT IN THE MAIN, THIS IS -- I

411
00:13:21,467 --> 00:13:23,102
JUST LEARNED THIS ON A FIRST

412
00:13:23,102 --> 00:13:24,370
FLIGHT AND I'M GOING TO CHANGE

413
00:13:24,370 --> 00:13:30,476
THINGS BECAUSE I FLEW TO LEARN.

414
00:13:30,476 --> 00:13:31,810
>> REMINDER, PLEASE IDENTIFY

415
00:13:31,810 --> 00:13:33,379
YOUR NAME AND ORGANIZATION.

416
00:13:33,379 --> 00:13:35,147
ONE QUESTION PER REPORTER.

417
00:13:35,147 --> 00:13:36,282
THERE IS A LOT OF INTEREST AND A

418
00:13:36,282 --> 00:13:37,249
LOT OF PEOPLE ON THE WOLVERINES.

419
00:13:37,249 --> 00:13:38,350
OUR FIRST QUESTION COMES FROM

420
00:13:38,350 --> 00:13:40,252
CHRIS DAVENPORT FROM THE

421
00:13:40,252 --> 00:13:41,287
"WASHINGTON POST".

422
00:13:41,287 --> 00:13:42,288
CHRIS?

423
00:13:42,288 --> 00:13:43,522
>> YEAH, HEY, GUYS.

424
00:13:43,522 --> 00:13:44,957
THANKS FOR TAKING MY CALL.

425
00:13:44,957 --> 00:13:46,392
CONGRATS ON THE LANDING TODAY.

426
00:13:46,392 --> 00:13:47,927
EVERYONE.

427
00:13:47,927 --> 00:13:51,764
I HAD A QUESTION SOUND LIKE

428
00:13:51,764 --> 00:13:54,333
EVERYONE IS PRETTY POSITIVE.

429
00:13:54,333 --> 00:13:56,468
I WONDER IF BOEING WILL BE PAID

430
00:13:56,468 --> 00:13:58,671
A MILESTONE PAYMENT FOR THIS

431
00:13:58,671 --> 00:14:00,172
MISSION UNDER THE CONTRACT.

432
00:14:00,172 --> 00:14:01,473
CURIOUS HOW MUCH THAT PAYMENT IS

433
00:14:01,473 --> 00:14:06,545
AND, MR. STICH, SOUNDS LIKE

434
00:14:06,545 --> 00:14:08,447
YOU'RE BULLISH ON GOING AHEAD

435
00:14:08,447 --> 00:14:11,083
RIGHT TO THE CREWED FLIGHT

436
00:14:11,083 --> 00:14:14,587
WITHOUT DOING ANOTHER UNCREWED

437
00:14:14,587 --> 00:14:17,923
FLIGHT.

438
00:14:17,923 --> 00:14:19,191
>> I'LL TALK ABOUT THE CONTRACT.

439
00:14:19,191 --> 00:14:21,393
THERE IS NO SPECIFIC MILESTONE

440
00:14:21,393 --> 00:14:23,495
FOR THE ORBIT FLIGHT TEST ITSELF

441
00:14:23,495 --> 00:14:24,496
AND THEN THE REST OF THAT

442
00:14:24,496 --> 00:14:29,568
CONTRACT DATA IS PROPRIETARY.

443
00:14:29,568 --> 00:14:31,604
WE CAN'T SHARE THAT WITH YOU.

444
00:14:31,604 --> 00:14:33,472
IN TERMS OF LOOKING AHEAD TO THE

445
00:14:33,472 --> 00:14:34,940
CREWED FLIGHT TEST I THINK WE

446
00:14:34,940 --> 00:14:38,277
HAVE TO LOOK THROUGH ALL THE

447
00:14:38,277 --> 00:14:40,613
DATA AND SEE HOW THEY PERFORMED

448
00:14:40,613 --> 00:14:45,985
IN ALL PHASES: ORBIT, ENTRY AND

449
00:14:45,985 --> 00:14:46,285
ASCENT.

450
00:14:46,285 --> 00:14:47,620
AND WE'LL LOOK THAT THE AND LOOK

451
00:14:47,620 --> 00:14:49,154
AT THE OBJECTIVES WE DID NOT GET

452
00:14:49,154 --> 00:14:51,190
WHICH WAS RENDEZVOUS AT DOCKING

453
00:14:51,190 --> 00:14:54,059
AND SIT DOWN AND TALK ABOUT WHAT

454
00:14:54,059 --> 00:14:54,426
WE DO.

455
00:14:54,426 --> 00:14:55,894
THERE IS GOOD DATA THAT THAT

456
00:14:55,894 --> 00:14:57,429
SUGGESTS THAT ONCE WE GO THROUGH

457
00:14:57,429 --> 00:15:00,933
IT MAYBE IT'S ACCEPTABLE TO GO

458
00:15:00,933 --> 00:15:01,567
NEXT STEP.

459
00:15:01,567 --> 00:15:03,135
BUT WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE

460
00:15:03,135 --> 00:15:04,103
DATA FIRST.

461
00:15:04,103 --> 00:15:09,208
WHAT WE TYPICALLY DO IS LET THE

462
00:15:09,208 --> 00:15:10,576
DATA DRIVE US TO THE NEXT

463
00:15:10,576 --> 00:15:11,210
DECISION.

464
00:15:11,210 --> 00:15:12,778
>> OUR NEXT QUESTION COMES FROM

465
00:15:12,778 --> 00:15:19,184
STEVEN CLARK.

466
00:15:19,184 --> 00:15:20,252
>> HI.

467
00:15:20,252 --> 00:15:21,086
HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND THANKS FOR

468
00:15:21,086 --> 00:15:22,488
TAKING MY CALL.

469
00:15:22,488 --> 00:15:25,057
JUST WANTED TO FOLLOW UP ON THE

470
00:15:25,057 --> 00:15:26,158
LAST COMMENT.

471
00:15:26,158 --> 00:15:28,827
LOOKING THROUGH SORT OF A WORK

472
00:15:28,827 --> 00:15:34,333
FROM THE CCT CONTRACT BACK IN

473
00:15:34,333 --> 00:15:47,346
2014 JUST WONDERING HOW YOU CAN

474
00:15:47,346 --> 00:15:49,181
SQUARE THE STATEMENT WITH BEING

475
00:15:49,181 --> 00:15:50,416
UNABLE TO DOCK ON THIS MISSION

476
00:15:50,416 --> 00:15:52,751
AND POTENTIALLY STILL GO FORWARD

477
00:15:52,751 --> 00:15:56,422
WITH THE CREWED FLIGHT TEST?

478
00:15:56,422 --> 00:15:59,124
>> AGAIN, I THINK IT'S REALLY

479
00:15:59,124 --> 00:16:01,193
EARLY TO TELL YOU WHAT WE WILL

480
00:16:01,193 --> 00:16:03,095
DO FOR THE CREW FLIGHT TEST.

481
00:16:03,095 --> 00:16:04,897
WE HAVE TO TAKE A LITTLE BIT OF

482
00:16:04,897 --> 00:16:06,732
TIME TO DIGEST THAT DATA AND

483
00:16:06,732 --> 00:16:08,567
FIGURE OUT WHAT'S THE NEXT STEP.

484
00:16:08,567 --> 00:16:11,136
WE JUST LANDED TODAY AND WE

485
00:16:11,136 --> 00:16:12,137
REALLY HAVEN'T HAD A CHANCE TO

486
00:16:12,137 --> 00:16:13,972
LOCK AT ALL THE ENTRY DATA.

487
00:16:13,972 --> 00:16:15,708
SO IT WILL TAKE US A LITTLE TIME

488
00:16:15,708 --> 00:16:20,312
TO GO SORT THROUGH THE DATA AND

489
00:16:20,312 --> 00:16:22,414
GET THROUGH THE RIGHT TEAMS TO

490
00:16:22,414 --> 00:16:23,682
FIGURE OUT THE NEXT STEPS.

491
00:16:23,682 --> 00:16:25,584
>> I WOULD SAY THAT THERE'S A

492
00:16:25,584 --> 00:16:27,486
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WHAT IS A

493
00:16:27,486 --> 00:16:29,588
NASA REQUIREMENT AND WHAT IS A

494
00:16:29,588 --> 00:16:31,256
CONTRACTUAL REQUIREMENT FOR THIS

495
00:16:31,256 --> 00:16:33,459
PARTICULAR FLIGHT TEST.

496
00:16:33,459 --> 00:16:35,361
AND THE NASA REQUIREMENT MIGHT

497
00:16:35,361 --> 00:16:40,366
NOT BE THE SAME AS THE

498
00:16:40,366 --> 00:16:41,800
CONTRACTUAL REQUIREMENTS FOR

499
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:43,302
THIS PARTICULAR FLIGHT TEST.

500
00:16:43,302 --> 00:16:45,537
SO, EXTRAPOLATING ONE TO THE

501
00:16:45,537 --> 00:16:47,906
OTHER MAY OR MAY NOT BE

502
00:16:47,906 --> 00:16:48,707
APPROPRIATE BUT WE'LL HAVE TO

503
00:16:48,707 --> 00:16:50,776
MAKE THAT EVALUATION AS WE LOOK

504
00:16:50,776 --> 00:16:53,479
AT ALL THE DATA.

505
00:16:53,479 --> 00:16:53,912
>> GREAT.

506
00:16:53,912 --> 00:16:55,781
AGAIN, FOR REPORTERS, IF YOU

507
00:16:55,781 --> 00:16:57,883
WANT TO ASK A QUESTION PLEASE

508
00:16:57,883 --> 00:16:59,385
PRESS STAR 1.

509
00:16:59,385 --> 00:17:00,652
PLEASE IDENTIFY YOUR NAME AND

510
00:17:00,652 --> 00:17:01,086
ORGANIZATION.

511
00:17:01,086 --> 00:17:02,921
OUR NEXT QUESTION WILL COME FROM

512
00:17:02,921 --> 00:17:05,290
BILL HARWOOD.

513
00:17:05,290 --> 00:17:05,758
>> THANKS.

514
00:17:05,758 --> 00:17:09,862
THIS IS FOR BILL HARWOOD FOR CBS

515
00:17:09,862 --> 00:17:12,231
NEWS THIS IS FOR JIM CHILL TON.

516
00:17:12,231 --> 00:17:14,800
YOU SAID YOU HAD TO EXERCISE THE

517
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:16,235
THRUSTERS BETWEEN THAT THEN AND

518
00:17:16,235 --> 00:17:16,535
LANDING.

519
00:17:16,535 --> 00:17:18,103
ARE YOU MORE SURE NOW IT WAS

520
00:17:18,103 --> 00:17:19,304
SENSOR ISSUES ON FRIDAY AND NOT

521
00:17:19,304 --> 00:17:23,075
A REAL ISSUE IN THE PROPULSION

522
00:17:23,075 --> 00:17:23,675
SYSTEM.

523
00:17:23,675 --> 00:17:26,412
RELATED, WERE THERE ANY OBVIOUS

524
00:17:26,412 --> 00:17:27,713
ANOMALIES THAT YOU KNOW OF THIS

525
00:17:27,713 --> 00:17:28,981
MORNING OTHER THAN THE TIMING

526
00:17:28,981 --> 00:17:32,818
ISSUE AND THE POSSIBLE SENSOR

527
00:17:32,818 --> 00:17:34,386
ANOMALIES THAT YOU MENTIONED

528
00:17:34,386 --> 00:17:35,687
EARLIER?

529
00:17:35,687 --> 00:17:36,255
THANKS.

530
00:17:36,255 --> 00:17:38,424
>> THANKS, BILL.

531
00:17:38,424 --> 00:17:40,559
TO REHASH OR RESTATE WHAT WE

532
00:17:40,559 --> 00:17:42,661
TALKED ABOUT YESTERDAY, AS WE

533
00:17:42,661 --> 00:17:45,297
ENTERED SPACE, THE SERVICE

534
00:17:45,297 --> 00:17:47,332
MODULE GOT A GOOD WORKOUT, WORK

535
00:17:47,332 --> 00:17:48,734
AND ATTITUDE CONTROL, BECAUSE WE

536
00:17:48,734 --> 00:17:50,702
DIDN'T HAVE AN ORBITAL INSERTION

537
00:17:50,702 --> 00:17:51,904
BURN AND WE USED A LOT OF THE

538
00:17:51,904 --> 00:17:54,606
SMALL THRUSTERS INSTEAD OF ONE

539
00:17:54,606 --> 00:17:56,642
BIG ORBITAL INSERTION BURN.

540
00:17:56,642 --> 00:17:59,044
GIVEN THAT WE HAD A LOT OF DUTY

541
00:17:59,044 --> 00:17:59,878
CYCLES.

542
00:17:59,878 --> 00:18:02,314
WE STARTED SEEING SOME

543
00:18:02,314 --> 00:18:03,515
INTERMITTENT ON AND OFF IN THE

544
00:18:03,515 --> 00:18:05,017
INDICATION.

545
00:18:05,017 --> 00:18:07,085
WE SET A COURSE OF ACTION TO

546
00:18:07,085 --> 00:18:08,987
DECIDE IF THAT WAS A SENSOR

547
00:18:08,987 --> 00:18:10,722
ISSUE OR THRUSTER ISSUE AND IN

548
00:18:10,722 --> 00:18:12,791
FACT WHAT THE PROTOCOL IS, WE

549
00:18:12,791 --> 00:18:15,527
TAKE THEM TO A SAFE MODE.

550
00:18:15,527 --> 00:18:16,795
DON'T USE THEM BECAUSE THERE IS

551
00:18:16,795 --> 00:18:18,363
A LOT OF REDUNDANCY.

552
00:18:18,363 --> 00:18:20,766
THERE ARE 28 THURSDAY ERRS AND

553
00:18:20,766 --> 00:18:22,801
WE SHUT DOWN ONE MANIFOLD AS

554
00:18:22,801 --> 00:18:24,203
WITH HE SAW PRESSURE GO LOW

555
00:18:24,203 --> 00:18:25,537
BECAUSE IT WAS USED A LOT.

556
00:18:25,537 --> 00:18:27,172
THE TECHNICAL TEAMS GOT TOGETHER

557
00:18:27,172 --> 00:18:34,847
AND WE BEGAN A PROTOCOL FOR EACH

558
00:18:34,847 --> 00:18:35,414
THRUSTER.

559
00:18:35,414 --> 00:18:37,516
WITH HE RECOVERED ALL THE

560
00:18:37,516 --> 00:18:37,983
THRUSTERS.

561
00:18:37,983 --> 00:18:39,618
WE CHOSE TO LEAVE ONE OFF AND

562
00:18:39,618 --> 00:18:41,453
RECOVERED THE MANIFOLD AND BEGAN

563
00:18:41,453 --> 00:18:43,989
ARE ENTRY WITH 27 OUT OF 28 AND

564
00:18:43,989 --> 00:18:48,961
THE CREW MODULE FLIGHT COMPUTER

565
00:18:48,961 --> 00:18:50,662
INFORMED THEM BEFORE THEY

566
00:18:50,662 --> 00:18:51,997
SEPARATED AND THAT APPEARS TO

567
00:18:51,997 --> 00:18:53,131
HAVE GONE REALLY WELL.

568
00:18:53,131 --> 00:18:54,433
THANKS FOR THE QUESTION.

569
00:18:54,433 --> 00:18:56,802
THAT COURSE OF ACTION WE

570
00:18:56,802 --> 00:18:57,836
DESCRIBED YESTERDAY WORKED LIKE

571
00:18:57,836 --> 00:18:59,271
A CHARM.

572
00:18:59,271 --> 00:19:02,140
THERE WAS A TIMING -- WE REALLY

573
00:19:02,140 --> 00:19:03,542
LIKED THIS LANDING OPPORTUNITY

574
00:19:03,542 --> 00:19:05,277
THIS MORNING AND WE HAD THE

575
00:19:05,277 --> 00:19:06,612
FLIGHT CONTROL TEAM READY TO DO

576
00:19:06,612 --> 00:19:08,213
IT AND WE WORKED THROUGH THAT

577
00:19:08,213 --> 00:19:09,715
PROTOCOL EFFECTIVELY THAT AND

578
00:19:09,715 --> 00:19:12,217
THE SOFTWARE VARIATIONS FOR IT

579
00:19:12,217 --> 00:19:16,588
WERE RUNNING INTO 9:00,

580
00:19:16,588 --> 00:19:18,257
10:00 P.M. LAST NIGHT.

581
00:19:18,257 --> 00:19:20,926
SO WE SAID WE HAVE PLENTY OF

582
00:19:20,926 --> 00:19:22,027
REDUNDANCY TO COME ON HOME AND

583
00:19:22,027 --> 00:19:23,228
THAT'S WHAT WE DID.

584
00:19:23,228 --> 00:19:24,830
>> I THINK THERE IS AN ADDED

585
00:19:24,830 --> 00:19:25,197
BENEFIT.

586
00:19:25,197 --> 00:19:27,533
WHEN YOU HAVE THESE OFF NOMINAL

587
00:19:27,533 --> 00:19:31,537
SITUATIONS YOU GET TO TEST YOUR

588
00:19:31,537 --> 00:19:33,405
SYSTEMS AT A LEVEL YOU NORMALLY

589
00:19:33,405 --> 00:19:35,741
WOULD NOT TEST THEM BUT ALSO THE

590
00:19:35,741 --> 00:19:36,208
TEAM.

591
00:19:36,208 --> 00:19:38,343
HOW DID THE TEAM DEAL WITH THE

592
00:19:38,343 --> 00:19:39,411
CHALLENGE THAT'S FRONT OF THEM

593
00:19:39,411 --> 00:19:41,680
AND MOVE FORWARD IN A POSITIVE

594
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:41,914
WAY.

595
00:19:41,914 --> 00:19:43,916
AND SO WE'RE GOING TO GET, I

596
00:19:43,916 --> 00:19:46,051
THINK, A LOT OF -- A LOT MORE

597
00:19:46,051 --> 00:19:48,320
DATA THAN WE WOULD HAVE GOTTEN

598
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,022
HAD THE TEST GONE ACCORDING TO

599
00:19:50,022 --> 00:19:51,490
PLAN.

600
00:19:51,490 --> 00:19:52,925
>> IT WAS AWESOME TO WATCH THE

601
00:19:52,925 --> 00:19:55,961
TEAM WORK TO RECOVER THE

602
00:19:55,961 --> 00:19:57,829
THRUSTERS OVER THE LAST 24 HOURS

603
00:19:57,829 --> 00:19:59,464
OR SO AND REPRESSING THE

604
00:19:59,464 --> 00:20:01,767
MANIFOLD TOOK ABOUT 50 COMMANDS

605
00:20:01,767 --> 00:20:05,938
AND SLOWLY BRING THAT PRESSURE

606
00:20:05,938 --> 00:20:07,439
UP AND HOT FIRE THEM AND TODAY

607
00:20:07,439 --> 00:20:09,041
ALL THE THRUSTERS WORKED GREAT

608
00:20:09,041 --> 00:20:11,310
AND DIDN'T SEE ANY THRUSTERS

609
00:20:11,310 --> 00:20:13,111
BURN AT ALL DURING THE BURNS AND

610
00:20:13,111 --> 00:20:13,512
MANEUVERS.

611
00:20:13,512 --> 00:20:16,281
IT WAS REALLY JUST AS A MANAGER

612
00:20:16,281 --> 00:20:18,383
JUST WATCHING THE TEAM WORK, IT

613
00:20:18,383 --> 00:20:22,354
WAS SOMETHING TO SEE.

614
00:20:22,354 --> 00:20:25,424
>> THE WHOLE DISCIPLINE WAS

615
00:20:25,424 --> 00:20:25,791
TREMENDOUS.

616
00:20:25,791 --> 00:20:26,758
THE OTHER PART OF YOUR QUESTION,

617
00:20:26,758 --> 00:20:29,995
WAS DID WE SEE ANYTHING ELSE?

618
00:20:29,995 --> 00:20:32,998
VERY MINOR, I THINK.

619
00:20:32,998 --> 00:20:37,536
BUT AS WE ENTERED, YOU HEAT UP

620
00:20:37,536 --> 00:20:38,804
AND GET DOWN INTO THE

621
00:20:38,804 --> 00:20:39,171
ATMOSPHERE.

622
00:20:39,171 --> 00:20:40,872
AS YOU ENTER THE ATMOSPHERE YOUR

623
00:20:40,872 --> 00:20:42,674
GUIDANCE SYSTEM WHICH HAS THREE

624
00:20:42,674 --> 00:20:47,446
REDUNDANT UNITS THAT COMBINE THE

625
00:20:47,446 --> 00:20:50,849
MAP WITH THE GPS TYPE MAP AND

626
00:20:50,849 --> 00:20:52,584
THAT'S BLENDED AND 2 OUT OF THE

627
00:20:52,584 --> 00:20:54,786
3 REQUIRED A SIGNAL AND THIRD

628
00:20:54,786 --> 00:20:56,722
ONE LAGGED AND SYSTEM WANTS TO

629
00:20:56,722 --> 00:20:58,290
SO IT TAKES THE FIRST TWO AND

630
00:20:58,290 --> 00:20:59,424
SECOND ONE LAGGED AND DID

631
00:20:59,424 --> 00:21:01,593
ACQUIRE VERY SHORTLY THEREAFTER

632
00:21:01,593 --> 00:21:02,728
BUT IT DIDN'T HAVE TO BE

633
00:21:02,728 --> 00:21:03,528
SELECTED.

634
00:21:03,528 --> 00:21:05,998
I THINK THAT'S NOMINAL DESIGN

635
00:21:05,998 --> 00:21:08,700
PERFORMANCE.

636
00:21:08,700 --> 00:21:10,335
I THINK IT'S EXPECTED.

637
00:21:10,335 --> 00:21:13,505
WE KNOW THAT ONE THERE'S A NON

638
00:21:13,505 --> 00:21:15,874
PROPULSION SYSTEM ON THE CREW

639
00:21:15,874 --> 00:21:19,378
MODULE AND MAIN TANK HAS

640
00:21:19,378 --> 00:21:20,846
NITROGEN THAT PUSHES DOWN ON THE

641
00:21:20,846 --> 00:21:21,947
BLADDER THAT KEEPS PRESSURE ON

642
00:21:21,947 --> 00:21:22,981
THE PROPELLANT.

643
00:21:22,981 --> 00:21:25,017
AFTER YOU BEGIN POWERING DOWN WE

644
00:21:25,017 --> 00:21:26,818
SEND A COMMAND TO CLOSE THE

645
00:21:26,818 --> 00:21:27,786
ISOLATION VALVE AND THE

646
00:21:27,786 --> 00:21:28,920
INDICATION WAS THAT IT DIDN'T

647
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:30,055
CLOSE OF THE WE DON'T KNOW WHAT

648
00:21:30,055 --> 00:21:31,156
THE VALVE ACTUALLY DID.

649
00:21:31,156 --> 00:21:33,225
IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN TEMP RELATED

650
00:21:33,225 --> 00:21:34,192
BUT THAT'S SOMETHING THAT THE

651
00:21:34,192 --> 00:21:41,433
TEAM WILL LOOK AT.

652
00:21:41,433 --> 00:21:42,634
>> OUR NEXT QUESTION IS FROM

653
00:21:42,634 --> 00:21:48,507
DAVID CURLY.

654
00:21:48,507 --> 00:21:50,976
>> MR. CHILTON YOU ANSWERED THE

655
00:21:50,976 --> 00:21:52,978
ONE QUESTION THOSE WERE THE ONLY

656
00:21:52,978 --> 00:21:54,479
OTHER ANOMALIES WERE THE VALVE

657
00:21:54,479 --> 00:21:56,014
AND THE SENSORS ON THE WAY DOWN.

658
00:21:56,014 --> 00:21:56,948
WAS THERE ANYTHING ELSE BECAUSE

659
00:21:56,948 --> 00:21:58,617
IT LOOKED PRETTY GOOD AS IT WAS

660
00:21:58,617 --> 00:21:59,384
COMING DOWN.

661
00:21:59,384 --> 00:22:02,187
AND THEN YOU MENTIONED 60% OF

662
00:22:02,187 --> 00:22:02,587
ACHIEVEMENT.

663
00:22:02,587 --> 00:22:04,656
WHAT WOULD YOU SAY IT IS FROM?

664
00:22:04,656 --> 00:22:06,892
IS THAT ALL JUST PROBLEMS ON

665
00:22:06,892 --> 00:22:08,994
FRIDAY OR WHAT WERE YOU

666
00:22:08,994 --> 00:22:09,594
REFERRING TO?

667
00:22:09,594 --> 00:22:15,701
>> WELL, THE 40% IS, I CAN'T

668
00:22:15,701 --> 00:22:17,069
TELL YOU UNTIL WE GET THE DATA

669
00:22:17,069 --> 00:22:17,903
OUT OF THE CAPSULE.

670
00:22:17,903 --> 00:22:19,504
JUST TO BE REALLY TRANSPARENT

671
00:22:19,504 --> 00:22:23,208
THE 85-90 FIGURE IS MY

672
00:22:23,208 --> 00:22:24,810
PREDICTION WHERE WE'LL END UP

673
00:22:24,810 --> 00:22:26,545
ONCE WE GET THAT DATABASE ON

674
00:22:26,545 --> 00:22:28,413
WHAT WE SEE IN CABIN TEMPS AND

675
00:22:28,413 --> 00:22:29,681
THE CONDITION OF THE CAPSULE.

676
00:22:29,681 --> 00:22:31,116
LOOKS LIKE SHE'S IN GREAT SHAPE

677
00:22:31,116 --> 00:22:32,417
AND NO INDICATION OF ANY HEATING

678
00:22:32,417 --> 00:22:33,952
OR PRESSURE ISSUES ON THE WAY

679
00:22:33,952 --> 00:22:36,221
DOWN IN THE DATA WE CAN SEE.

680
00:22:36,221 --> 00:22:38,390
LOOKS LIKE THE BIG REMARKS, I'LL

681
00:22:38,390 --> 00:22:39,791
CALL THEM, THE BIG ITEMS YOU

682
00:22:39,791 --> 00:22:42,227
WANT TO KNOW, THE AERO SHAPE AND

683
00:22:42,227 --> 00:22:43,261
GETTING TO SPACE WORKED GREAT.

684
00:22:43,261 --> 00:22:44,796
THE SHIP FLIES VERY ABLE IN

685
00:22:44,796 --> 00:22:45,397
SPACE.

686
00:22:45,397 --> 00:22:47,132
A LOT OF ATTITUDE CONTROL AND

687
00:22:47,132 --> 00:22:49,835
VERY DURABLE PROPULSION SYSTEM

688
00:22:49,835 --> 00:22:50,669
AS IT TURNS OUT.

689
00:22:50,669 --> 00:22:52,337
WE KNOW THAT NOW.

690
00:22:52,337 --> 00:22:57,309
DON'T WANT TO REVISIT BUT THAT'S

691
00:22:57,309 --> 00:23:00,145
EXCELLENT DATA AND THE BULLSEYE

692
00:23:00,145 --> 00:23:00,946
LANDING IS TERRIFIC.

693
00:23:00,946 --> 00:23:05,050
SO WE'RE NOT TRACKING A LOT.

694
00:23:05,050 --> 00:23:06,418
AS I WALKED IN THE ROOM THOSE

695
00:23:06,418 --> 00:23:07,919
TWO THINGS THAT I KNOW ARE WHAT

696
00:23:07,919 --> 00:23:08,220
I KNOW.

697
00:23:08,220 --> 00:23:09,621
OUR ENGINEERS ARE LOOKING AT

698
00:23:09,621 --> 00:23:11,389
DATA RIGHT NOW AND CREWS LOOKING

699
00:23:11,389 --> 00:23:13,024
AT THE CAPSULE AND IF THERE IS

700
00:23:13,024 --> 00:23:15,360
MORE TO FIND WE'LL DEFINITELY --

701
00:23:15,360 --> 00:23:18,196
>> ONCE WE GET THE DATA OUT OF

702
00:23:18,196 --> 00:23:20,465
THE CAPSULE THAT IS NOW SAFE ON

703
00:23:20,465 --> 00:23:23,535
DECK WE'RE LOOKING AT 85-90% OF

704
00:23:23,535 --> 00:23:25,070
THE DATE THAT'S AVAILABLE THAT

705
00:23:25,070 --> 00:23:26,471
WE THOUGHT ACHIEVE.

706
00:23:26,471 --> 00:23:28,039
IT'S ALSO TRUE THAT DOES NOT

707
00:23:28,039 --> 00:23:29,574
WEIGH WHAT'S THE MOST VALUABLE

708
00:23:29,574 --> 00:23:31,510
DATA AGAINST WHAT IS LESS

709
00:23:31,510 --> 00:23:31,877
VALUABLE.

710
00:23:31,877 --> 00:23:34,279
WHAT WE KNOW IS THAT LAUNCH AND

711
00:23:34,279 --> 00:23:35,547
REENTRY, THEY CAN'T BE COMPARED

712
00:23:35,547 --> 00:23:36,715
TO A LOT OF THE OTHER THINGS

713
00:23:36,715 --> 00:23:38,049
THAT WE WANTED TO TEST.

714
00:23:38,049 --> 00:23:41,586
SO, I THINK OVERALL, THIS IS A

715
00:23:41,586 --> 00:23:42,087
GOOD TEST.

716
00:23:42,087 --> 00:23:43,455
WE'RE GOING TO GET A LOT OF

717
00:23:43,455 --> 00:23:44,923
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FROM THIS

718
00:23:44,923 --> 00:23:47,626
TEST THAT WE'RE GOING TO USE TO

719
00:23:47,626 --> 00:23:50,962
GO FORWARD IN A MEANINGFUL WAY.

720
00:23:50,962 --> 00:23:52,430
>> ALSO WE'LL GET THE VEHICLE --

721
00:23:52,430 --> 00:23:53,865
WE GOT THE VEHICLE BACK AND ONE

722
00:23:53,865 --> 00:23:56,001
OF THE THINGS WE ALWAYS DO -- I

723
00:23:56,001 --> 00:23:57,202
KNOW THE BOEING TEAM WILL DO IT

724
00:23:57,202 --> 00:23:59,971
WHEN WE GET IT BACK TO FLORIDA,

725
00:23:59,971 --> 00:24:01,339
THAT ILL LOOK AT THINGS AND THIS

726
00:24:01,339 --> 00:24:03,441
IS A REUSABLE SPACECRAFT

727
00:24:03,441 --> 00:24:04,943
DESIGNED TO BE FLOWN FOR 10

728
00:24:04,943 --> 00:24:05,944
MISSIONS AND WE HAVE OTHER

729
00:24:05,944 --> 00:24:07,579
MISSIONS OBVIOUSLY.

730
00:24:07,579 --> 00:24:08,780
NASA IS PLANNING FOR COMMERCIAL

731
00:24:08,780 --> 00:24:09,047
CREW.

732
00:24:09,047 --> 00:24:10,849
AND WE'LL GET THE SPACECRAFT

733
00:24:10,849 --> 00:24:12,684
BACK AND WE GOT AN EARLY LOOK

734
00:24:12,684 --> 00:24:15,120
NOW WITH THIS FLIGHT HERE IN

735
00:24:15,120 --> 00:24:17,022
DECEMBER AND WE CAN START

736
00:24:17,022 --> 00:24:18,290
UNDERSTANDING THE WAY THE

737
00:24:18,290 --> 00:24:20,592
VEHICLE PERFORMS AND HOW WE TURN

738
00:24:20,592 --> 00:24:22,761
THAT VEHICLE AROUND FOR THE NEXT

739
00:24:22,761 --> 00:24:23,295
FLIGHT.

740
00:24:23,295 --> 00:24:24,462
THOSE ARE VERY IMPORTANT THINGS

741
00:24:24,462 --> 00:24:27,098
WE'LL LEARN AS WELL.

742
00:24:27,098 --> 00:24:27,599
>> GREAT.

743
00:24:27,599 --> 00:24:31,236
OUR NEXT QUESTION IS FROM MARSHA

744
00:24:31,236 --> 00:24:33,772
SMITH.

745
00:24:33,772 --> 00:24:34,039
>> HI.

746
00:24:34,039 --> 00:24:36,575
CAN YOU HEAR ME?

747
00:24:36,575 --> 00:24:37,175
>> YES.

748
00:24:37,175 --> 00:24:37,475
>> GOOD.

749
00:24:37,475 --> 00:24:39,244
I WAS HAVING TROUBLE WITH MY

750
00:24:39,244 --> 00:24:41,580
STAR 1 SO I'M GLAD I GOT IN.

751
00:24:41,580 --> 00:24:43,648
MY QUESTION REALLY HAD TO DO IS

752
00:24:43,648 --> 00:24:44,649
WHETHER OR NOT THERE'S A

753
00:24:44,649 --> 00:24:46,918
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN OBJECTIVES

754
00:24:46,918 --> 00:24:48,920
AND REQUIREMENTS?

755
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:50,789
PAUSE I HEARD BOTH TERMS AND I'M

756
00:24:50,789 --> 00:24:52,324
NOT SURE IF THERE'S A

757
00:24:52,324 --> 00:24:53,792
DISTINCTION OR NOT AND WHO SETS

758
00:24:53,792 --> 00:24:55,994
THE OBJECTIVES AND/OR THE

759
00:24:55,994 --> 00:24:56,862
REQUIREMENTS?

760
00:24:56,862 --> 00:24:57,963
IS THERE A LIST OF THEM

761
00:24:57,963 --> 00:24:59,497
SOMEWHERE?

762
00:24:59,497 --> 00:24:59,865
>> YEAH.

763
00:24:59,865 --> 00:25:01,166
I'LL TAKE THAT ONE.

764
00:25:01,166 --> 00:25:02,801
SO THE REQUIREMENTS ARE IN THE

765
00:25:02,801 --> 00:25:04,202
CONTRACT AND THE PROGRAM

766
00:25:04,202 --> 00:25:06,271
DOCUMENTATION AND SOME OF THAT

767
00:25:06,271 --> 00:25:11,309
OBVIOUSLY THE 11:30 DOCUMENT

768
00:25:11,309 --> 00:25:14,112
REQUIREMENT IS PUBLICLY

769
00:25:14,112 --> 00:25:16,514
AVAILABLE IN TERMS OF SAFETY AND

770
00:25:16,514 --> 00:25:16,915
PERFORMANCE.

771
00:25:16,915 --> 00:25:18,283
MISSION OBJECTIVES, WHAT WE DO

772
00:25:18,283 --> 00:25:19,718
WITH THE BOEING TEAM WE SAT DOWN

773
00:25:19,718 --> 00:25:21,253
AND LOOKED AT THIS PARTICULAR

774
00:25:21,253 --> 00:25:22,287
FLIGHT TEST AND SAID WHAT ARE

775
00:25:22,287 --> 00:25:23,588
THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS WE

776
00:25:23,588 --> 00:25:27,125
NEED TO DO, AND THEN THAT GETS

777
00:25:27,125 --> 00:25:28,593
CODIFIED FOR THE FLIGHT.

778
00:25:28,593 --> 00:25:30,362
YOU USE THAT IN MANAGING THE

779
00:25:30,362 --> 00:25:31,863
MISSION AND THERE ARE CERTAIN

780
00:25:31,863 --> 00:25:36,134
THINGS THAT PERHAPS YOU CAN'T

781
00:25:36,134 --> 00:25:41,539
ACHIEVE EITHER VIA TIME LIMITS

782
00:25:41,539 --> 00:25:43,642
ORBIT SO YOU WORK THROUGH THOSE.

783
00:25:43,642 --> 00:25:45,677
FOR THIS FLIGHT NASA AND BOEING

784
00:25:45,677 --> 00:25:46,912
AGREED THE LANDING IS THE MOST

785
00:25:46,912 --> 00:25:48,046
IMPORTANT OBJECTIVE.

786
00:25:48,046 --> 00:25:49,547
THAT WAS MISSION OBJECTIVE

787
00:25:49,547 --> 00:25:50,815
NUMBER ONE AND THERE ARE OTHERS

788
00:25:50,815 --> 00:25:51,316
ON THE WAY.

789
00:25:51,316 --> 00:25:53,084
WHAT THE BOEING AND THE NASA

790
00:25:53,084 --> 00:25:54,552
TEAM DID THROUGH THE FLIGHT,

791
00:25:54,552 --> 00:25:56,788
ONCE WE FIGURED OUT WE DIDN'T

792
00:25:56,788 --> 00:25:59,124
HAVE ENOUGH PROPELLANT TO GO TO

793
00:25:59,124 --> 00:25:59,824
THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION

794
00:25:59,824 --> 00:26:01,192
AND DO THE RENDEZVOUS AND

795
00:26:01,192 --> 00:26:02,360
DOCKING WE LOOKED AT THE

796
00:26:02,360 --> 00:26:03,261
OBJECTIVES AND THOUGHT, WHAT ARE

797
00:26:03,261 --> 00:26:08,066
SOME OF THE THINGS WE CAN'T DO;

798
00:26:08,066 --> 00:26:09,734
FOR EXAMPLE, WE EMPLOYED THE

799
00:26:09,734 --> 00:26:11,102
DOCKING SYSTEM RING AND PUT IT

800
00:26:11,102 --> 00:26:12,971
THROUGH ITS PACES TO VERIFY THAT

801
00:26:12,971 --> 00:26:14,372
WORKED THE WAY IT SHOULD.

802
00:26:14,372 --> 00:26:17,242
WE ALSO CHECKED OUT SOME OF THE

803
00:26:17,242 --> 00:26:19,277
RENDEZVOUS NAVIGATION CENTERS

804
00:26:19,277 --> 00:26:21,880
FOR WHAT WE COULD AND WE ALSO

805
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,082
ESTABLISHED THE SPACE STATION

806
00:26:24,082 --> 00:26:26,217
AND CHECKED THAT OUT.

807
00:26:26,217 --> 00:26:28,286
WE USED THE OBJECTIVES TO GO

808
00:26:28,286 --> 00:26:29,955
WORK THROUGH THE KIND OF THINGS

809
00:26:29,955 --> 00:26:31,489
WE CAN DO AND THOSE ARE THOUGHT

810
00:26:31,489 --> 00:26:32,390
THROUGH IN ADVANCE.

811
00:26:32,390 --> 00:26:33,658
SO IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM IN THE

812
00:26:33,658 --> 00:26:36,328
MISSION, YOU CAN GO LOOK AT THAT

813
00:26:36,328 --> 00:26:37,996
DOCUMENT AND THEN CHOOSE THE

814
00:26:37,996 --> 00:26:39,397
THINGS YOU CAN ACHIEVE AND I

815
00:26:39,397 --> 00:26:41,066
THINK THE BOEING AND THE NASA

816
00:26:41,066 --> 00:26:43,468
TEAM DID A GOOD JOB OF

817
00:26:43,468 --> 00:26:44,836
OPTIMIZING FOR THE TIME THAT WE

818
00:26:44,836 --> 00:26:46,338
HAD ALL THOSE MISSION

819
00:26:46,338 --> 00:26:49,975
OBJECTIVES.

820
00:26:49,975 --> 00:26:52,377
>> WAS IT A REQUIREMENT OR AN

821
00:26:52,377 --> 00:26:54,612
OBJECTIVE?

822
00:26:54,612 --> 00:26:56,381
>> IS OFT A REQUIREMENT OR

823
00:26:56,381 --> 00:26:57,549
OBJECTIVE?

824
00:26:57,549 --> 00:26:58,950
>> I THINK A WAY TO THINK ABOUT

825
00:26:58,950 --> 00:27:01,186
IT IS OFT IS A FLIGHT TEST AND

826
00:27:01,186 --> 00:27:03,121
IN THAT FLIGHT TEST WE SET

827
00:27:03,121 --> 00:27:06,024
OBJECTIVES TO INFORM US HOW OUR

828
00:27:06,024 --> 00:27:07,392
DESIGN IS GOING TO WORK.

829
00:27:07,392 --> 00:27:09,194
WE DESIGNED IT AND DONE ALL THE

830
00:27:09,194 --> 00:27:11,029
GROUND TESTS WE CAN DO, LET'S GO

831
00:27:11,029 --> 00:27:12,263
MAKE A FLIGHT TEST LIKE YOU

832
00:27:12,263 --> 00:27:14,199
WOULD WITH OTHER SYSTEMS AND

833
00:27:14,199 --> 00:27:16,234
LET'S TAKE DATA AND SAY, IS OUR

834
00:27:16,234 --> 00:27:17,669
DESIGN WORKING AS INTENDED.

835
00:27:17,669 --> 00:27:20,372
SO THAT'S THE TEST OBJECTIVES

836
00:27:20,372 --> 00:27:21,172
AGAINST THE DESIGN.

837
00:27:21,172 --> 00:27:22,407
I THINK THE REQUIREMENTS ARE

838
00:27:22,407 --> 00:27:23,475
MORE DURABLE.

839
00:27:23,475 --> 00:27:25,176
THEY'RE THINGS NATION IS A SAY

840
00:27:25,176 --> 00:27:27,012
THE STARLINER SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE

841
00:27:27,012 --> 00:27:29,948
ABLE TO DO DURABLY OVER TIME.

842
00:27:29,948 --> 00:27:31,316
SO I THINK THAT'S THE

843
00:27:31,316 --> 00:27:34,686
DIFFERENCE.

844
00:27:34,686 --> 00:27:35,420
>> WE'LL GO TO THE NEXT

845
00:27:35,420 --> 00:27:37,188
QUESTION.

846
00:27:37,188 --> 00:27:42,160
JOEY RULETTI.

847
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:42,460
JOEY?

848
00:27:42,460 --> 00:27:44,329
>> CAN YOU HEAR ME?

849
00:27:44,329 --> 00:27:45,296
>> YES.

850
00:27:45,296 --> 00:27:48,099
>> THANKS FOR DOING SO MANY

851
00:27:48,099 --> 00:27:49,634
MEDIA AVAILABILITIES.

852
00:27:49,634 --> 00:27:51,202
I APPRECIATE THIS.

853
00:27:51,202 --> 00:27:54,973
MY FIRST QUESTION IS FOR STEVE

854
00:27:54,973 --> 00:27:55,407
STICH.

855
00:27:55,407 --> 00:27:57,142
HOW OFTEN DO THE LIST OF

856
00:27:57,142 --> 00:27:58,510
REQUIREMENTS CHANGE AS OPPOSED

857
00:27:58,510 --> 00:28:01,513
TO OBJECTIVES?

858
00:28:01,513 --> 00:28:02,914
WHAT A HE GOING TO HAPPEN TO THE

859
00:28:02,914 --> 00:28:06,418
CARGO AND PRESENTS THAT WERE

860
00:28:06,418 --> 00:28:08,386
SUPPOSED TO GO TO THE ISS CREW?

861
00:28:08,386 --> 00:28:10,522
>> I'LL TAKE THE REQUIREMENTS

862
00:28:10,522 --> 00:28:11,122
QUESTION.

863
00:28:11,122 --> 00:28:12,657
WE HAVE NOT CHANGED THE

864
00:28:12,657 --> 00:28:14,626
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE COMMERCIAL

865
00:28:14,626 --> 00:28:17,595
CREW PROGRAM VERY MUCH AT ALL.

866
00:28:17,595 --> 00:28:19,764
I THINK WE HAD LESS THAN 1% OR

867
00:28:19,764 --> 00:28:22,801
SO CHANGE IN THE REQUIREMENTS SO

868
00:28:22,801 --> 00:28:24,069
THOSE HAVE BEEN OUT THERE FOR

869
00:28:24,069 --> 00:28:25,170
QUITE SOME TIME AND THE BOEING

870
00:28:25,170 --> 00:28:27,105
TEAM HAS WORKED VERY HARD TO

871
00:28:27,105 --> 00:28:28,406
MEET ALL THOSE REQUIREMENTS IN

872
00:28:28,406 --> 00:28:31,743
OUR REQUIREMENTS DOCUMENT.

873
00:28:31,743 --> 00:28:33,378
AS FAR AS THE CARGO, I'LL LET

874
00:28:33,378 --> 00:28:34,312
JIM ANSWER THAT QUESTION.

875
00:28:34,312 --> 00:28:37,949
I DON'T KNOW WHAT WE ARE DOING.

876
00:28:37,949 --> 00:28:40,752
>> I THINK THE CARGO THAT WAS ON

877
00:28:40,752 --> 00:28:42,153
ITS WAY GOES BACK TO NASA AND

878
00:28:42,153 --> 00:28:44,622
GOES BACK INTO THE SYSTEM OF

879
00:28:44,622 --> 00:28:46,291
WHEN IS THE NEXT OPPORTUNITY TO

880
00:28:46,291 --> 00:28:55,633
GO.

881
00:28:55,633 --> 00:28:57,035
THAT CARGO WAS LEFT ON STATION

882
00:28:57,035 --> 00:28:59,971
AND THE NASA CARGO GOES BACK TO

883
00:28:59,971 --> 00:29:01,739
US AND BOEING CARGO I SUSPECT

884
00:29:01,739 --> 00:29:02,674
GOES BACK TO BOEING.

885
00:29:02,674 --> 00:29:04,642
>> THE REAL TRAGEDY IS THE

886
00:29:04,642 --> 00:29:06,010
CHRISTMAS PRESENTS.

887
00:29:06,010 --> 00:29:07,812
BUT I PRESUME THOSE WILL BE

888
00:29:07,812 --> 00:29:08,913
AVAILABLE WHEN THE ASTRONAUTS

889
00:29:08,913 --> 00:29:11,516
GET HOME.

890
00:29:11,516 --> 00:29:12,750
>> OUR NEXT QUESTION IS FROM

891
00:29:12,750 --> 00:29:14,619
MARSHA DUNN.

892
00:29:14,619 --> 00:29:15,620
MARSHA?

893
00:29:15,620 --> 00:29:16,754
>> YES, HI.

894
00:29:16,754 --> 00:29:18,823
QUESTION FOR MR. CHILTON.

895
00:29:18,823 --> 00:29:25,363
IF IT'S DECIDED YOU NEED TO DO

896
00:29:25,363 --> 00:29:30,001
AN UNCREWED EXTRA ORBITAL TEST

897
00:29:30,001 --> 00:29:32,637
FLIGHT, HOW MUCH OF A HIT TO THE

898
00:29:32,637 --> 00:29:34,305
TIMELINE WILL IT BE?

899
00:29:34,305 --> 00:29:36,141
>> I'M UNABLE TO SAY.

900
00:29:36,141 --> 00:29:38,977
IT WOULD BE SOME MONTHS.

901
00:29:38,977 --> 00:29:40,845
IT WOULD BE AT LEAST 3 MONTHS.

902
00:29:40,845 --> 00:29:42,881
THE FASTEST YOU COULD GO RECYCLE

903
00:29:42,881 --> 00:29:45,049
IF THE DATA CAME BACK PERFECTLY

904
00:29:45,049 --> 00:29:46,351
CLEAN AND YOU SAID, OKAY LET'S

905
00:29:46,351 --> 00:29:50,188
GO REBUILD IT AND GO REFLY, IT'S

906
00:29:50,188 --> 00:29:54,659
NOT DAYS, WEEKS.

907
00:29:54,659 --> 00:29:55,493
IT'S MONTHS.

908
00:29:55,493 --> 00:29:56,694
GIVEN THIS IS THE FIRST FLIGHT I

909
00:29:56,694 --> 00:29:58,062
WOULD ANTICIPATE DATA REVIEW

910
00:29:58,062 --> 00:30:00,865
TAKES LONGER, SO THAT'S THE BEST

911
00:30:00,865 --> 00:30:09,574
I CAN GIVE YOU TODAY.

912
00:30:09,574 --> 00:30:10,942
>> NEXT QUESTION COMES FROM MIKE

913
00:30:10,942 --> 00:30:11,376
WALL.

914
00:30:11,376 --> 00:30:11,643
MIKE?

915
00:30:11,643 --> 00:30:13,144
>> THANKS, GUYS.

916
00:30:13,144 --> 00:30:14,846
YEAH, JUST A QUICK QUESTION

917
00:30:14,846 --> 00:30:17,415
ABOUT THE REFURBISHMENT PROCESS.

918
00:30:17,415 --> 00:30:18,783
WOULD THIS BE THE FIRST TIME YOU

919
00:30:18,783 --> 00:30:20,318
PREPPED ANOTHER VEHICLE FOR A

920
00:30:20,318 --> 00:30:21,653
REFLIGHT?

921
00:30:21,653 --> 00:30:23,555
CAN YOU GO THROUGH WHAT THE

922
00:30:23,555 --> 00:30:24,489
STEPS ARE IN TERMS IT OF GETTING

OF GOES INTO GETTING THIS THING

925
00:30:27,525 --> 00:30:30,328
READY TO FLY AGAIN AND HOW LONG

926
00:30:30,328 --> 00:30:31,262
DO YOU THINK IT WILL TAKE AND

927
00:30:31,262 --> 00:30:33,431
WHAT ARE THE BIGGEST OBSTACLE

928
00:30:33,431 --> 00:30:35,300
YOU NEED TO ENCOUNTER DURING

929
00:30:35,300 --> 00:30:42,207
THAT PROCESS?

930
00:30:42,207 --> 00:30:45,210
>> BASELINE WE HAVE A REUSABLE

931
00:30:45,210 --> 00:30:50,181
CREW MODEL AND SERVICE MODULE.

932
00:30:50,181 --> 00:30:52,050
THEY'RE IN PRODUCTION.

933
00:30:52,050 --> 00:30:53,284
WE'LL WE HAVE THEM READY WHEN WE

934
00:30:53,284 --> 00:30:54,352
ARE CALLED UP.

935
00:30:54,352 --> 00:30:55,954
SERVICE MODULES ARE NEW AND

936
00:30:55,954 --> 00:30:56,354
READY.

ANY LEARNING WE CHOOSE TO

938
00:30:58,122 --> 00:30:59,557
INCORPORATE WILL BE THE ONLY

939
00:30:59,557 --> 00:31:00,892
DISRUPTION TO THE SERVICE

940
00:31:00,892 --> 00:31:01,593
MODULE.

941
00:31:01,593 --> 00:31:02,794
TODAY I DON'T KNOW THAT WE'RE

942
00:31:02,794 --> 00:31:04,963
LOOKING AT ANY HARDWARE CHANGES.

943
00:31:04,963 --> 00:31:08,833
MAYBE HOW WE FLY IT WILL BE IT.

944
00:31:08,833 --> 00:31:10,935
ON THE CREW MODULES WILL BE WE

945
00:31:10,935 --> 00:31:13,204
KNOW WHAT THINGS HAVE A FULL 10

946
00:31:13,204 --> 00:31:15,173
MISSION LIFE WITH THE CAPSULE

947
00:31:15,173 --> 00:31:16,507
AND THERE ARE SOME THINGS WE

948
00:31:16,507 --> 00:31:18,209
WILL EITHER REPLACE OR PULL OUT

949
00:31:18,209 --> 00:31:20,745
AND LOOK AT IT DUE TO

950
00:31:20,745 --> 00:31:22,180
CRITICALITY.

951
00:31:22,180 --> 00:31:24,716
IN THAT PROTOCOL THERE IS A LOT

952
00:31:24,716 --> 00:31:25,984
MORE OF THOSE ON THIS FLIGHT

953
00:31:25,984 --> 00:31:29,020
THAN WE PLAN TO HAVE IN ONGOING

954
00:31:29,020 --> 00:31:30,755
SERVICE SO THIS ONE WILL TAKE A

955
00:31:30,755 --> 00:31:32,257
LITTLE LONGER TO TURN AROUND AND

956
00:31:32,257 --> 00:31:32,724
PROBABLY SHOULD.

957
00:31:32,724 --> 00:31:34,759
WE'LL TAKE SOME OUT OF THE

958
00:31:34,759 --> 00:31:36,694
DEVELOPMENT FLIGHT

959
00:31:36,694 --> 00:31:37,795
INSTRUMENTATION AND MAKE A

960
00:31:37,795 --> 00:31:38,830
DECISION IF WE WANT TO LEAVE

961
00:31:38,830 --> 00:31:41,332
SOME AND PUT A FLIGHT RECORDER

962
00:31:41,332 --> 00:31:42,000
SYSTEM.

963
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:43,534
BUT IN THE MAIN, WE DON'T TAKE

964
00:31:43,534 --> 00:31:49,674
THE CAPSULE SIGNIFICANTLY APART,

965
00:31:49,674 --> 00:31:51,376
IF WE NEED TO WE CAN TAKE THEM

966
00:31:51,376 --> 00:31:52,877
APART SO THE CREWS CAN GET IN

967
00:31:52,877 --> 00:31:55,713
THERE AND DO VERY LARGE SCALE --

968
00:31:55,713 --> 00:31:59,517
IF YOU HAD TO DO MAJOR MODS, YOU

969
00:31:59,517 --> 00:32:01,586
WOULD OPEN THE CLAM SHELLS AND

970
00:32:01,586 --> 00:32:03,087
CHANGE A BUNCH OF PARTS.

971
00:32:03,087 --> 00:32:04,689
RIGHT NOW IT DOESN'T OPEN IT UP.

972
00:32:04,689 --> 00:32:06,291
IT GOES IN AND CHANGES

973
00:32:06,291 --> 00:32:07,292
COMPONENTS AND ALL OF THAT IS

974
00:32:07,292 --> 00:32:08,760
THE CAVEAT PF WHAT WE LEARN FROM

975
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,561
THIS DATA REVIEW.

976
00:32:10,561 --> 00:32:12,730
>> OBVIOUSLY THERE ARE STANDARD

977
00:32:12,730 --> 00:32:13,398
REFURBISH.

978
00:32:13,398 --> 00:32:14,565
THAT IS DONE EVERY NIGHT.

979
00:32:14,565 --> 00:32:16,768
THE THERMAL PROTECTION SYSTEM,

980
00:32:16,768 --> 00:32:18,002
WE'LL INSPECT THAT.

981
00:32:18,002 --> 00:32:20,638
THE BACK SHIELD PANELS AROUND

982
00:32:20,638 --> 00:32:22,740
SOME OF THE TILES AND BLANKETS

983
00:32:22,740 --> 00:32:26,210
WOULD GET REFURBISHED AND NEW

984
00:32:26,210 --> 00:32:28,513
HEAT SHIELD AND NEW AIR BAG

985
00:32:28,513 --> 00:32:31,249
SYSTEM THAT GET INSTALLED AND

986
00:32:31,249 --> 00:32:43,061
NEW SET OF PARACHUTES.

987
00:32:43,061 --> 00:32:44,862
AND OF COURSE WE'LL LOOK AT

988
00:32:44,862 --> 00:32:46,064
OTHER THINGS AS JIM SAID AND

989
00:32:46,064 --> 00:32:47,632
WE'LL GO WORK THROUGH IT

990
00:32:47,632 --> 00:32:49,767
TOGETHER WITH THE BOEING AND THE

991
00:32:49,767 --> 00:32:50,535
NASA TEAM.

992
00:32:50,535 --> 00:32:52,203
>> SOME OF THE CRITICAL SYSTEMS

993
00:32:52,203 --> 00:32:54,439
WE'LL INCREMENTALLY MAKE THEM

994
00:32:54,439 --> 00:32:54,972
REUSABLE.

995
00:32:54,972 --> 00:32:56,874
WE'LL START WITH NEW AND GET A

996
00:32:56,874 --> 00:32:58,142
COUPLE OF FLIGHTS UNDER OUR BELT

997
00:32:58,142 --> 00:33:05,783
AND LOOK AT HARDWARE.

998
00:33:05,783 --> 00:33:08,119
>> OUR NEXT QUESTION IS FROM

999
00:33:08,119 --> 00:33:18,062
EMERY KELLY.

1000
00:33:18,062 --> 00:33:20,231
>> I'M WITH FLORIDA TODAY.

1001
00:33:20,231 --> 00:33:21,466
I GUESS I'M HAVING JUST A LITTLE

1002
00:33:21,466 --> 00:33:23,668
BIT OF TROUBLE WRAPPING MY MIND

1003
00:33:23,668 --> 00:33:28,940
AROUND THE 80-90% OF DATA

1004
00:33:28,940 --> 00:33:29,640
GATHERED FIGURE.

1005
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:31,376
I MEAN, I SEE WHERE YOU'RE

1006
00:33:31,376 --> 00:33:32,276
GOING.

1007
00:33:32,276 --> 00:33:34,879
BUT I GUESS MY QUESTION -- FROM

1008
00:33:34,879 --> 00:33:37,248
MY UNDERSTANDING AS WELL AND TO

1009
00:33:37,248 --> 00:33:40,551
BE CLEAR, IF STARLINER HAD FLOWN

1010
00:33:40,551 --> 00:33:42,854
TO THE ISS AND SPENT 8 DAYS

1011
00:33:42,854 --> 00:33:44,722
THERE AND CAME BACK, WOULDN'T

1012
00:33:44,722 --> 00:33:49,026
THERE BE EXPONENTIALLY MORE DATA

1013
00:33:49,026 --> 00:33:54,265
FROM MANY MORE OPERATIONS?

1014
00:33:54,265 --> 00:33:55,566
>> I DON'T BELIEVE SO.

1015
00:33:55,566 --> 00:33:57,668
THE THING ABOUT THE FIRST USE OF

1016
00:33:57,668 --> 00:33:59,404
A VEHICLE THAT'S TO GO TO SPACE

1017
00:33:59,404 --> 00:34:01,139
AND COME BACK, MOST OF THE

1018
00:34:01,139 --> 00:34:02,306
OBJECTIVES ON THE FIRST NIGHT

1019
00:34:02,306 --> 00:34:04,876
ARE PROVING YOU CAN DO THAT.

1020
00:34:04,876 --> 00:34:06,144
CAN YOU GET THERE AND CAN YOU

1021
00:34:06,144 --> 00:34:08,613
CONTROL IT WHEN YOU'RE THERE AND

1022
00:34:08,613 --> 00:34:09,947
KEEP PEOPLE SAFE AND GET HOME

1023
00:34:09,947 --> 00:34:13,751
AND ACCURATELY DO THIS LANDING.

1024
00:34:13,751 --> 00:34:16,187
HAS WE RENDEZVOUSED AND DOCK, WE

1025
00:34:16,187 --> 00:34:18,022
WERE GOING TO DOCK AND OPEN THE

1026
00:34:18,022 --> 00:34:19,557
HATCH AND DELIVER THE PRESENTS

1027
00:34:19,557 --> 00:34:23,795
AND WE WERE GOING TO POWER DOWN.

1028
00:34:23,795 --> 00:34:25,797
>> WHAT JEFF IS SAYING, WE

1029
00:34:25,797 --> 00:34:26,831
TESTED JUST ABOUT ALL THE

1030
00:34:26,831 --> 00:34:28,065
SYSTEMS ON THE VEHICLE, THE

1031
00:34:28,065 --> 00:34:29,500
THINGS THAT WE PROBABLY DIDN'T

1032
00:34:29,500 --> 00:34:34,772
TEST WOULD BE SOME OF THE DEPTH

1033
00:34:34,772 --> 00:34:36,307
SENSORS.

1034
00:34:36,307 --> 00:34:38,810
WE TESTED THE VEHICLE'S ABILITY

1035
00:34:38,810 --> 00:34:40,478
TO DO MANEUVERS AND WE DID

1036
00:34:40,478 --> 00:34:41,479
SEVERAL OF THOSE ON THE FLIGHT.

1037
00:34:41,479 --> 00:34:47,118
WE TESTED ALL THE THRUSTERS AND

1038
00:34:47,118 --> 00:34:48,019
THE DOCKING SYSTEM.

1039
00:34:48,019 --> 00:34:50,188
WE TESTED THE LINK TO STATION.

1040
00:34:50,188 --> 00:34:51,722
SO WE TESTED A LOT OF THINGS.

1041
00:34:51,722 --> 00:34:53,257
WE TESTED THE ENVIRONMENTAL

1042
00:34:53,257 --> 00:34:56,461
CONTROL SYSTEM, THE GUIDE

1043
00:34:56,461 --> 00:34:58,262
NAVIGATION CONTROL AND THERMAL

1044
00:34:58,262 --> 00:34:58,763
SYSTEMS.

1045
00:34:58,763 --> 00:35:02,099
SO AS JIM SAYS, ACTUAL DOCKING

1046
00:35:02,099 --> 00:35:03,734
ITSELF DID NOT OCCUR, BUT AFTER

1047
00:35:03,734 --> 00:35:06,404
WE DOCKED PLAN WAS TO POWER DOWN

1048
00:35:06,404 --> 00:35:08,539
MUCH OF STARLINER AND TAKE THE

1049
00:35:08,539 --> 00:35:09,440
CARGO OUT.

1050
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:11,175
HATCH OPERATION AND THAT

1051
00:35:11,175 --> 00:35:12,510
PHYSICAL DOCKING OF RETRACTING

1052
00:35:12,510 --> 00:35:14,078
THE TWO SYSTEMS IS ANOTHER THING

1053
00:35:14,078 --> 00:35:15,346
WE DIDN'T TEST.

1054
00:35:15,346 --> 00:35:16,781
IF YOU LOOK AT THE CORE SYSTEMS

1055
00:35:16,781 --> 00:35:20,418
OF THE VEHICLE, WE TESTED JUST A

1056
00:35:20,418 --> 00:35:21,953
MAJORITY OF THOSE SYSTEMS.

1057
00:35:21,953 --> 00:35:23,321
>> YOU MENTIONED WE DIDN'T TEST

1058
00:35:23,321 --> 00:35:25,890
ALL THE SENSORS BUT WE DID TEST

1059
00:35:25,890 --> 00:35:27,158
SOME AND THEY WERE SUCCESSFUL.

1060
00:35:27,158 --> 00:35:29,293
>> WE TESTED THE NEAR FIELD, ONE

1061
00:35:29,293 --> 00:35:30,428
OF THE CAMERAS IS CALLED THE

1062
00:35:30,428 --> 00:35:31,996
NEAR FIELD CAMERA AND USED TO

1063
00:35:31,996 --> 00:35:33,331
LOOK AT STARS AND WE TESTED

1064
00:35:33,331 --> 00:35:36,334
THOSE AND WE GOT GOOD STAR DATA.

1065
00:35:36,334 --> 00:35:37,768
>> THAT'S IMPORTANT BECAUSE IT

1066
00:35:37,768 --> 00:35:39,470
WILL HELP YOU CONTROL ATTITUDE

1067
00:35:39,470 --> 00:35:41,172
AS ARE AS YOU'RE APPROACHING THE

1068
00:35:41,172 --> 00:35:41,806
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION.

1069
00:35:41,806 --> 00:35:42,440
>> ABSOLUTELY.

1070
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,775
>> I DON'T MEAN TO MINIMIZE, IF

1071
00:35:44,775 --> 00:35:47,311
THERE WAS A PERCEPTION WE HAD A

1072
00:35:47,311 --> 00:35:50,481
BUSY TEST SCHEDULE INSIDE THE

1073
00:35:50,481 --> 00:35:52,383
CAPSULE AFTER DOCKING THERE WAS

1074
00:35:52,383 --> 00:35:54,151
GOING TO BE HATCH OPENING AND

1075
00:35:54,151 --> 00:35:57,054
VERIFICATION AND PRESENT

1076
00:35:57,054 --> 00:35:58,623
DELIVERY AND THE JOY ON THE FACE

1077
00:35:58,623 --> 00:36:00,157
OF ROSIE AND POWER DOWN AND WAIT

1078
00:36:00,157 --> 00:36:01,926
UNTIL THE RIGHT TIME TO COME

1079
00:36:01,926 --> 00:36:02,827
HOME.

1080
00:36:02,827 --> 00:36:03,227
>> GREAT.

1081
00:36:03,227 --> 00:36:05,763
OUR NEXT QUESTION IS FROM JACKIE

1082
00:36:05,763 --> 00:36:08,666
WADDLE.

1083
00:36:08,666 --> 00:36:10,201
>> THANKS SO MUCH FOR DOING

1084
00:36:10,201 --> 00:36:10,768
THAT.

1085
00:36:10,768 --> 00:36:13,571
MY QUESTION IS FOR JIM CHILTON

1086
00:36:13,571 --> 00:36:15,907
AT THE RISK OF BEATING A DEAD

1087
00:36:15,907 --> 00:36:17,942
HORSE HERE, BUT I WANTED TO ASK

1088
00:36:17,942 --> 00:36:21,212
YOU FROM A GUT CHECK PERSPECTIVE

1089
00:36:21,212 --> 00:36:22,413
WOULD BOEING BE COMFORTABLE

1090
00:36:22,413 --> 00:36:23,447
MOVING FORWARD WITH A CREW

1091
00:36:23,447 --> 00:36:26,183
FLIGHT TEST WITHOUT MAYBE

1092
00:36:26,183 --> 00:36:28,586
ANOTHER LFT AND WHAT EXACTLY IS

1093
00:36:28,586 --> 00:36:30,888
YOUR TIME FRAME FOR COMPLETING

1094
00:36:30,888 --> 00:36:33,224
THE NECESSARY DATA REVIEWS TO

1095
00:36:33,224 --> 00:36:34,592
FIGURING OUT WHAT THE SITUATION

1096
00:36:34,592 --> 00:36:36,427
WAS WITH THE MISSION ELAPSE

1097
00:36:36,427 --> 00:36:37,728
TIME?

1098
00:36:37,728 --> 00:36:39,430
>> WELL, THANKS FOR THE

1099
00:36:39,430 --> 00:36:39,997
QUESTION.

1100
00:36:39,997 --> 00:36:42,166
FIRST OFF, I'LL SAY OUR APPROACH

1101
00:36:42,166 --> 00:36:43,768
FOR DEVELOPMENT FOR THIS SYSTEM

1102
00:36:43,768 --> 00:36:45,036
IS INCREMENTAL.

1103
00:36:45,036 --> 00:36:46,904
YOU MIGHT RECALL, WE DIDN'T

1104
00:36:46,904 --> 00:36:49,774
DECLARE FOR ORBITAL FLIGHT TEST

1105
00:36:49,774 --> 00:36:52,043
UNTIL WE HAD A SUCCESSFUL BOARD

1106
00:36:52,043 --> 00:36:52,677
TEST.

1107
00:36:52,677 --> 00:36:54,245
WE DIDN'T THERE IS IN HE SENSE

1108
00:36:54,245 --> 00:36:59,016
GOING TO SPACE SO WE GO ONE STEP

1109
00:36:59,016 --> 00:36:59,717
AT A TIME.

1110
00:36:59,717 --> 00:37:02,353
SO I JUST -- BOEING UNTIL WE

1111
00:37:02,353 --> 00:37:04,255
LOOK AT ALL THAT DATA IT'S NOT

1112
00:37:04,255 --> 00:37:07,325
IN A POSITION TO PROPOSE.

1113
00:37:07,325 --> 00:37:09,393
IF EVERYTHING HAD GONE

1114
00:37:09,393 --> 00:37:10,161
SWIMMINGLY I DON'T THINK I WOULD

1115
00:37:10,161 --> 00:37:13,030
BE PROPOSING IT UNTIL WE SAW THE

1116
00:37:13,030 --> 00:37:13,898
DATA.

1117
00:37:13,898 --> 00:37:15,933
NOW THAT WE KNOW WE HAD

1118
00:37:15,933 --> 00:37:17,468
CHALLENGES MAYBE DATA REVIEW IS

1119
00:37:17,468 --> 00:37:18,436
A LONGER.

1120
00:37:18,436 --> 00:37:19,604
>> YOU JUST HIT AN IMPORTANT

1121
00:37:19,604 --> 00:37:21,272
POINT WHICH IS HAD EVERYTHING

1122
00:37:21,272 --> 00:37:23,040
GONE ACCORDING TO PLANNED WE

1123
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:24,775
STILL WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN SAYING

1124
00:37:24,775 --> 00:37:26,310
WE'RE READY TO PUT HUMANS ON IT

1125
00:37:26,310 --> 00:37:27,712
AT THIS POINT.

1126
00:37:27,712 --> 00:37:28,379
THAT'S IMPORTANT.

1127
00:37:28,379 --> 00:37:29,981
WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE WE TEST THE

1128
00:37:29,981 --> 00:37:32,116
DATA AND THERE'S GOING TO BE A

1129
00:37:32,116 --> 00:37:34,585
LOT OF REVIEWS GOING ON FOR

1130
00:37:34,585 --> 00:37:36,287
WEEKS, MONTHS IN FRONT OF US

1131
00:37:36,287 --> 00:37:40,625
BEFORE CAREER WE'RE COMFORTABLE

1132
00:37:40,625 --> 00:37:41,292
THAT.

1133
00:37:41,292 --> 00:37:42,627
THAT'S AN IMPORTANT POINT.

1134
00:37:42,627 --> 00:37:44,261
I DIDN'T MEAN TO STEP ON YOU.

1135
00:37:44,261 --> 00:37:45,596
>> NO.

1136
00:37:45,596 --> 00:37:48,199
JUST FROM FULL CANDOR WE'LL

1137
00:37:48,199 --> 00:37:49,900
REVIEW THE DATA AND I THINK

1138
00:37:49,900 --> 00:37:51,602
WE'RE IN JANUARY PRETTY DEEP

1139
00:37:51,602 --> 00:37:52,770
INTO JANUARY BEFORE EVERYBODY

1140
00:37:52,770 --> 00:37:54,438
HAS A THOROUGH UNDERSTANDING.

1141
00:37:54,438 --> 00:37:56,474
I WILL SAY THAT EVERYTHING WE'RE

1142
00:37:56,474 --> 00:37:58,209
LOOKING AT TODAY LOOKS LIKE THIS

1143
00:37:58,209 --> 00:37:59,443
DESIGN WORKS GREAT AND THE

1144
00:37:59,443 --> 00:38:01,579
TEAM -- WE KNEW THE TEAM WAS

1145
00:38:01,579 --> 00:38:04,015
GREAT BUT THEY'RE BEYOND GREAT

1146
00:38:04,015 --> 00:38:07,051
OBVIOUSLY.

1147
00:38:07,051 --> 00:38:08,519
TO ANSWER THE QUESTION WE'RE NOT

1148
00:38:08,519 --> 00:38:10,221
IN POSITION TO PROPOSE THAT AND

1149
00:38:10,221 --> 00:38:12,023
WE DON'T IN UNTIL WE KNOW THE

1150
00:38:12,023 --> 00:38:13,057
MACHINE IS WORKING.

1151
00:38:13,057 --> 00:38:15,726
>> FROM THAT COMMERCIAL CREW

1152
00:38:15,726 --> 00:38:16,661
PERSPECTIVE WE'RE DOING THE SAME

1153
00:38:16,661 --> 00:38:16,927
STEPS.

1154
00:38:16,927 --> 00:38:19,330
HE WANTED TO HAVE AN INCREMENTAL

1155
00:38:19,330 --> 00:38:20,297
APPROACH TO LOOK AT THESE

1156
00:38:20,297 --> 00:38:24,969
VEHICLES AND TESTING THE ABORT

1157
00:38:24,969 --> 00:38:26,370
SYSTEM BACK IN NOVEMBER WAS VERY

1158
00:38:26,370 --> 00:38:28,105
IMPORTANT MOVING FORWARD.

1159
00:38:28,105 --> 00:38:30,341
THIS ORBIT MISSION TESTING THE

1160
00:38:30,341 --> 00:38:32,410
ASCENT PHASE OF THE FLIGHT AND

1161
00:38:32,410 --> 00:38:38,215
DEORBIT AND RE-ENTRY WAS ANOTHER

1162
00:38:38,215 --> 00:38:40,284
IMPORTANT STEP AND WE NEED TO

1163
00:38:40,284 --> 00:38:42,720
SIT DOWN AND REVIEW THE DATA AND

1164
00:38:42,720 --> 00:38:44,255
DO IT WITH OUR BOEING COLLEAGUES

1165
00:38:44,255 --> 00:38:45,990
AND COME TO A CONCLUSION ON

1166
00:38:45,990 --> 00:38:49,360
WHAT'S THE NEXT STEP.

1167
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:53,297
>> OUR NEXT QUESTION IS FROM

1168
00:38:53,297 --> 00:38:54,098
IRENE.

1169
00:38:54,098 --> 00:38:54,365
>> HI.

1170
00:38:54,365 --> 00:38:55,032
GOOD MORNING.

1171
00:38:55,032 --> 00:38:57,501
MY QUESTION IS FOR JIM

1172
00:38:57,501 --> 00:38:59,203
BRIDENSTINE.

1173
00:38:59,203 --> 00:39:00,938
YOU TOLD US THAT YOUR REASONS

1174
00:39:00,938 --> 00:39:04,809
FOR REPLACING BILL GERSTENMAIER

1175
00:39:04,809 --> 00:39:10,414
IS TO BRING SOME NEW REALITY AND

1176
00:39:10,414 --> 00:39:12,416
SCHEDULED REALITY TO THE HUMAN

1177
00:39:12,416 --> 00:39:19,123
SPACEFLIGHT SYSTEM.

1178
00:39:19,123 --> 00:39:20,291
NOW THAT YOU HE KNOWS

1179
00:39:20,291 --> 00:39:22,326
EXPERIENCED PROBLEMS AFTER DEMO

1180
00:39:22,326 --> 00:39:24,295
ONE AND THE ABORT SITE TEST AND

1181
00:39:24,295 --> 00:39:27,131
THIS ISSUE WITH THE TIMER, DO

1182
00:39:27,131 --> 00:39:28,899
YOU STILL THINK IT'S REALISTIC

1183
00:39:28,899 --> 00:39:30,835
THAT YOU'RE GOING TO BE ABLE TO

1184
00:39:30,835 --> 00:39:34,972
DEVELOP A HUMAN MORE THAN HUMAN

1185
00:39:34,972 --> 00:39:37,641
LANDER SYSTEM, LUNAR LANDING

1186
00:39:37,641 --> 00:39:40,544
SYSTEMS IN LESS THAN 5 YEARS?

1187
00:39:40,544 --> 00:39:43,514
>> OH, YEAH.

1188
00:39:43,514 --> 00:39:47,418
APPLE STORAGE IS HERE. I THINK

1189
00:39:47,418 --> 00:39:48,219
I THINK ABSOLUTELY.

1190
00:39:48,219 --> 00:39:50,488
WE HAVE A REMEMBER A LOT OF OUR

1191
00:39:50,488 --> 00:39:51,489
THE COMPANIES THAT ARE

1192
00:39:51,489 --> 00:39:53,257
INTERESTED IN TAKING OUR

1193
00:39:53,257 --> 00:39:54,091
ASTRONAUTS TO THE MOON A LOT OF

1194
00:39:54,091 --> 00:39:56,794
THEM HAVE IN FACT ALREADY BEEN

1195
00:39:56,794 --> 00:39:58,829
MAKING BIG INVESTMENTS INTO THIS

1196
00:39:58,829 --> 00:40:00,598
CAPABILITY.

1197
00:40:00,598 --> 00:40:01,899
WHEN WE THINK ABOUT HOW WE MAKE

1198
00:40:01,899 --> 00:40:04,735
IT ALL HAPPEN WE'LL NEED THE SLS

1199
00:40:04,735 --> 00:40:06,904
ROCKET AND ORION CREW CAPSULE

1200
00:40:06,904 --> 00:40:09,240
AND EUROPEAN SERVICE MODULE.

1201
00:40:09,240 --> 00:40:11,041
THOSE ARE AN ALL ABOUT TO BE

1202
00:40:11,041 --> 00:40:13,110
FULLY TESTED AND THEN AFTER

1203
00:40:13,110 --> 00:40:14,612
THAT, WE'VE GOT TO HAVE A

1204
00:40:14,612 --> 00:40:16,080
GATEWAY AND A LANDING SYSTEM.

1205
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,716
SO, MOST OF THE ARCHITECTURE IS

1206
00:40:18,716 --> 00:40:21,252
WELL UNDER DEVELOPMENT.

1207
00:40:21,252 --> 00:40:24,855
WE HAVE SOME ELEMENTS WE NEED TO

1208
00:40:24,855 --> 00:40:26,223
MAKE SURE GET DEVELOPED.

1209
00:40:26,223 --> 00:40:28,626
FOR THE FIRST TIME -- I REASON,

1210
00:40:28,626 --> 00:40:29,660
I KNOW YOU KNOW THIS, FOR THE

1211
00:40:29,660 --> 00:40:31,162
FIRST TIME SINCE THE APOLLO

1212
00:40:31,162 --> 00:40:32,863
PROGRAM WE NOW HAVE THE HUMAN

1213
00:40:32,863 --> 00:40:35,032
LANDING SYSTEM THAT JUST

1214
00:40:35,032 --> 00:40:37,101
RECEIVED $600 MILLION FOR THE

1215
00:40:37,101 --> 00:40:38,936
FISCAL YEAR 2020 AND MAYBE IT'S

1216
00:40:38,936 --> 00:40:40,905
A LITTLE LATE IN THE FISCAL YEAR

1217
00:40:40,905 --> 00:40:42,606
FOR 2020 BUT WE GOT IT.

1218
00:40:42,606 --> 00:40:43,774
IT'S NOW THERE.

1219
00:40:43,774 --> 00:40:45,643
BUT WE HAVEN'T HAD THAT SINCE

1220
00:40:45,643 --> 00:40:47,311
THE APOLLO PROGRAM.

1221
00:40:47,311 --> 00:40:50,114
AND AGAIN, A LOT OF OUR PARTNERS

1222
00:40:50,114 --> 00:40:54,185
ARE INVESTING THEIR OWN MONEY AS

1223
00:40:54,185 --> 00:40:54,785
WELL.

1224
00:40:54,785 --> 00:40:56,887
AND THEY'VE BEEN -- THEY HAVE

1225
00:40:56,887 --> 00:40:58,756
BEEN ALL ALONG AS A MATTER OF

1226
00:40:58,756 --> 00:41:00,391
FACT, EVEN AHEAD OF THEM

1227
00:41:00,391 --> 00:41:06,497
INVESTING THEIR OWN MONEY TO

1228
00:41:06,497 --> 00:41:08,098
ORDER TO ACHIEVE THIS OUTCOME.

1229
00:41:08,098 --> 00:41:09,700
I'M NOT AT ALL WILLING AT THIS

1230
00:41:09,700 --> 00:41:12,369
POINT TO SAY THAT IT CAN'T BE

1231
00:41:12,369 --> 00:41:14,238
DONE WITHIN 5 YEARS.

1232
00:41:14,238 --> 00:41:15,739
I ABSOLUTELY THINK IT CAN AND

1233
00:41:15,739 --> 00:41:18,409
THAT'S WHAT WE ARE PUSHING FOR.

1234
00:41:18,409 --> 00:41:20,778
>> OUR NEXT QUESTION COMES FROM

1235
00:41:20,778 --> 00:41:26,250
KEITH CALLING.

1236
00:41:26,250 --> 00:41:28,185
>> I TWEETED SOMETHING THAT I

1237
00:41:28,185 --> 00:41:30,387
ORIGINALLY POSTED 17 YEARS AGO

1238
00:41:30,387 --> 00:41:32,690
AND IT WAS THE CONTINGENCY PLAN

1239
00:41:32,690 --> 00:41:36,427
IN CASE THE SOYUZ LANDED IN

1240
00:41:36,427 --> 00:41:37,561
NORTH AMERICA AND IT CALLS FOR A

1241
00:41:37,561 --> 00:41:40,030
TEAM THAT GETS IN THE CONVOY AND

1242
00:41:40,030 --> 00:41:41,932
YOU DRIVE TO WHERE IT CAME DOWN.

1243
00:41:41,932 --> 00:41:44,034
WHEN I WORKED AT ROCKWELL BACK

1244
00:41:44,034 --> 00:41:45,169
IN THE DAY WE HAD SOMETHING

1245
00:41:45,169 --> 00:41:46,670
SIMILAR IN MY OFFICE WITH THE

1246
00:41:46,670 --> 00:41:47,972
PEOPLE THAT WERE ON THE SHORT

1247
00:41:47,972 --> 00:41:50,841
LIST IN CASE IT CAME DOWN WHERE

1248
00:41:50,841 --> 00:41:52,343
IT WASN'T SUPPOSED TO AND

1249
00:41:52,343 --> 00:41:55,145
IMPLEMENTED AT WHITE SANDS.

1250
00:41:55,145 --> 00:41:57,681
YOU FOLKS AT BOEING AND NASA

1251
00:41:57,681 --> 00:41:59,917
DESCRIBE, DO YOU HAVE A GO-TEAM

1252
00:41:59,917 --> 00:42:05,489
IN PLACE IN CASE YOU HAVE SOME

1253
00:42:05,489 --> 00:42:07,558
TERMS IN THE LANDING SITE.

1254
00:42:07,558 --> 00:42:10,127
ARE THERE OTHER PEOPLE PRE

1255
00:42:10,127 --> 00:42:12,263
POSITIONED IN PLACE AND

1256
00:42:12,263 --> 00:42:14,932
AIRPLANES AND CONVOYS WILLING TO

1257
00:42:14,932 --> 00:42:17,334
TAKE THEM THERE AND HOW WOULD

1258
00:42:17,334 --> 00:42:20,004
YOU DEAL GETTING SUPPORT TO A

1259
00:42:20,004 --> 00:42:21,038
LANDING NOT EXPECTED TO BE IN

1260
00:42:21,038 --> 00:42:21,906
PLACE?

1261
00:42:21,906 --> 00:42:26,410
>> GOOD QUESTION, KEITH.

1262
00:42:26,410 --> 00:42:27,311
THANK YOU FOR THE QUESTION.

1263
00:42:27,311 --> 00:42:30,514
WE HAVE CONTINGENCY PLANS FOR

1264
00:42:30,514 --> 00:42:32,983
THE CREWED MISSIONS, WE COULD

1265
00:42:32,983 --> 00:42:34,551
HAVE A SITUATION DURING THE

1266
00:42:34,551 --> 00:42:36,620
LAUNCH WHERE WE ENDED UP, IF

1267
00:42:36,620 --> 00:42:37,888
THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE

1268
00:42:37,888 --> 00:42:39,723
ROCKET ABORTING OUT OF THAT AND

1269
00:42:39,723 --> 00:42:42,026
LANDING SOMEWHERE IN THE

1270
00:42:42,026 --> 00:42:43,827
ATLANTIC OCEAN OR ANYWHERE

1271
00:42:43,827 --> 00:42:49,233
AROUND THE WORLD.

1272
00:42:49,233 --> 00:42:51,268
WE WORKED WITH THE DOD FORCES TO

1273
00:42:51,268 --> 00:42:53,037
BE PART OF THE RESCUE.

1274
00:42:53,037 --> 00:42:54,605
WE HAVE A BIT OF A READY TEAM

1275
00:42:54,605 --> 00:42:56,540
HERE AT JOHNSON SPACE CENTER

1276
00:42:56,540 --> 00:42:58,943
THAT WOULD GO MEET THE CREW AND

1277
00:42:58,943 --> 00:43:01,278
MEET THE CAPSULE SHOULD IT LAND

1278
00:43:01,278 --> 00:43:05,783
SOMEWHERE OFF NOMINAL.

1279
00:43:05,783 --> 00:43:10,020
REALLY WORLDWIDE, THIS IF

1280
00:43:10,020 --> 00:43:14,191
THERE'S AN EMERGENCY IT'S READY

1281
00:43:14,191 --> 00:43:21,699
TO LAND ON LAND ON WATER.

1282
00:43:21,699 --> 00:43:22,599
>> AGAIN, IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION

1283
00:43:22,599 --> 00:43:23,901
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ASK A

1284
00:43:23,901 --> 00:43:25,569
QUESTION, PRESS STAR 1 TO BE

1285
00:43:25,569 --> 00:43:26,236
ADDED TO THE CUE.

1286
00:43:26,236 --> 00:43:28,372
OUR NEXT QUESTION COMES FROM

1287
00:43:28,372 --> 00:43:31,141
ALLEN BOYLE.

1288
00:43:31,141 --> 00:43:31,742
>> HEY.

1289
00:43:31,742 --> 00:43:32,109
THANK YOU.

1290
00:43:32,109 --> 00:43:36,914
I WANTED TO ASK ABOUT CALYPSO.

1291
00:43:36,914 --> 00:43:38,282
WILLIAMS HAD GIVEN THAT NAME TO

1292
00:43:38,282 --> 00:43:41,251
THIS CAPSULE, SO IS THAT THE

1293
00:43:41,251 --> 00:43:42,052
OFFICIAL NAME NOW?

1294
00:43:42,052 --> 00:43:43,487
WHAT'S THE PROCESS FOR NAMING

1295
00:43:43,487 --> 00:43:44,254
IT?

1296
00:43:44,254 --> 00:43:46,557
IS IT UP TO THE ASTRONAUTS?

1297
00:43:46,557 --> 00:43:50,361
>> THANK YOU.

1298
00:43:50,361 --> 00:43:51,795
>> WELL, REMEMBER, THIS IS

1299
00:43:51,795 --> 00:43:54,531
COMMERCIAL CREW.

1300
00:43:54,531 --> 00:43:56,166
IT'S PROBABLY GOING TO BE UP TO

1301
00:43:56,166 --> 00:43:59,269
OUR COMMERCIAL PARTNERS SINCE

1302
00:43:59,269 --> 00:44:00,637
THEY OWN IT AND OPERATE IT.

1303
00:44:00,637 --> 00:44:05,409
WE WANT TO BE CUSTOMER.

1304
00:44:05,409 --> 00:44:07,244
I WOULD IMAGINE IF THEY SAID WE

1305
00:44:07,244 --> 00:44:08,679
WANT TO NAME SOMETHING BOEING

1306
00:44:08,679 --> 00:44:09,546
WOULD FOLLOW SUIT.

1307
00:44:09,546 --> 00:44:11,348
BUT WE HAVEN'T DONE THAT IN THIS

1308
00:44:11,348 --> 00:44:18,989
CASE.

1309
00:44:18,989 --> 00:44:28,132
>> COOL NAME BY THE WAY.

1310
00:44:28,132 --> 00:44:29,133
>> HISTORICALLY IN THE PAST THE

1311
00:44:29,133 --> 00:44:31,268
CREW MEMBERS DID NAME CAPSULES.

1312
00:44:31,268 --> 00:44:33,470
SO IT DOES HAVE HERITAGE TO

1313
00:44:33,470 --> 00:44:37,975
OTHER NASA PROGRAMS.

1314
00:44:37,975 --> 00:44:39,843
>> OUR LAST QUESTION COMES FROM

1315
00:44:39,843 --> 00:44:47,251
ROBERT PEARLMAN.

1316
00:44:47,251 --> 00:44:49,286
>> MY QUESTIONS HAVE BEEN TAKEN

1317
00:44:49,286 --> 00:44:51,488
BUT ONE THAT I DON'T THINK HAS

1318
00:44:51,488 --> 00:44:53,223
BEEN MENTIONED OVER THE LAST TWO

1319
00:44:53,223 --> 00:44:54,191
DAY.

1320
00:44:54,191 --> 00:44:55,626
HOW FAR OFF YOU WHAT THE MISSION

1321
00:44:55,626 --> 00:44:57,127
ELAPSE TIMER FROM WHAT WAS THE

1322
00:44:57,127 --> 00:45:00,631
ACTUAL MISSION ELAPSE TIME?

1323
00:45:00,631 --> 00:45:09,073
>> IT WAS 11 HOURS OFF.

1324
00:45:09,073 --> 00:45:10,374
>> I HAVE NO MORE QUESTIONS FROM

1325
00:45:10,374 --> 00:45:10,841
THE CUE.

1326
00:45:10,841 --> 00:45:11,708
WE WENT THROUGH ALL THE

1327
00:45:11,708 --> 00:45:13,911
QUESTIONS.

1328
00:45:13,911 --> 00:45:15,512
UNLESS SOMEONE CALLS IN RIGHT

1329
00:45:15,512 --> 00:45:19,883
NOW WE'RE GONNA GO TO CLOSING

1330
00:45:19,883 --> 00:45:23,420
REMARKS.

1331
00:45:23,420 --> 00:45:24,888
>> THANK YOU, AND THANK YOU TO

1332
00:45:24,888 --> 00:45:26,090
EVERY ONE WHO IS COVERING THIS

1333
00:45:26,090 --> 00:45:28,158
VERY IMPORTANT PROGRAM FOR NASA.

1334
00:45:28,158 --> 00:45:31,128
I WANT TO REITERATE THAT IT IS

1335
00:45:31,128 --> 00:45:31,829
TRUE.

1336
00:45:31,829 --> 00:45:33,664
THIS WAS AN OFF NOMINAL

1337
00:45:33,664 --> 00:45:37,234
SITUATION AND ALSO TRUE THAT THE

1338
00:45:37,234 --> 00:45:40,003
NASA TEAM AND THE BOEING TEAM

1339
00:45:40,003 --> 00:45:40,904
CAME TOGETHER AND DID AMAZING

1340
00:45:40,904 --> 00:45:44,074
WORK TO MAKE THIS SUCCESSFUL.

1341
00:45:44,074 --> 00:45:46,276
AND, YES, THERE ARE ELEMENTS OF

1342
00:45:46,276 --> 00:45:47,511
THIS THAT ARE MISSING BUT THERE

1343
00:45:47,511 --> 00:45:49,446
ARE A WHOLE LOT OF ELEMENTS THAT

1344
00:45:49,446 --> 00:45:51,949
WERE COMPLETED IN A VERY

1345
00:45:51,949 --> 00:45:55,119
POSITIVE AND MEANINGFUL WAY AND

1346
00:45:55,119 --> 00:46:00,390
GIVES US A LOT OF GREAT DATA TO

1347
00:46:00,390 --> 00:46:01,492
CONTINUE MOVING FORWARD AND HOW

1348
00:46:01,492 --> 00:46:03,060
IMPORTANT IT IS FOR OUR NATION

1349
00:46:03,060 --> 00:46:05,295
TO HAVE TWO DISSIMILAR

1350
00:46:05,295 --> 00:46:06,096
PROVIDERS.

1351
00:46:06,096 --> 00:46:08,098
WE HAVE HAD -- WE HAD TIMES IN

1352
00:46:08,098 --> 00:46:11,301
OUR COUNTRY WHEN WE HAD THE

1353
00:46:11,301 --> 00:46:13,070
SPACE SHUTTLES, FOR EXAMPLE, IF

1354
00:46:13,070 --> 00:46:14,204
WE HAD A PROBLEM LIKE

1355
00:46:14,204 --> 00:46:15,806
CHALLENGER, WE HAD NO ACCESS TO

1356
00:46:15,806 --> 00:46:17,241
SPACE.

1357
00:46:17,241 --> 00:46:18,942
AND WE NEED TO HAVE MULTIPLE

1358
00:46:18,942 --> 00:46:20,110
PROVIDERS THAT ARE ABLE TO GET

1359
00:46:20,110 --> 00:46:23,180
US -- NOT JUST TO LOWER EARTH

1360
00:46:23,180 --> 00:46:24,515
ORBIT BUT EVENTUALLY ALL THE WAY

1361
00:46:24,515 --> 00:46:30,754
TO THE MOON.

1362
00:46:30,754 --> 00:46:32,289
WE HAVE MULTIPLE PROVIDERS AND I

1363
00:46:32,289 --> 00:46:33,290
THINK THAT'S A POSITIVE THING.

1364
00:46:33,290 --> 00:46:35,292
WE WANT TO KEEP THIS PROGRAM

1365
00:46:35,292 --> 00:46:38,695
MOVING FORWARD WITH THIS SIMILAR

1366
00:46:38,695 --> 00:46:41,698
REDUNDANCY SO WE ALWAYS HAVE

1367
00:46:41,698 --> 00:46:43,333
ACCESS TO LOWER EARTH ORBIT.

1368
00:46:43,333 --> 00:46:44,735
HERE'S WHAT WE KNOW GIVEN WHAT

1369
00:46:44,735 --> 00:46:46,803
WE DID TODAY.

1370
00:46:46,803 --> 00:46:47,771
WE KNOW THAT WE WILL MOVE

1371
00:46:47,771 --> 00:46:48,872
FORWARD AND WE KNOW THAT WE HAVE

1372
00:46:48,872 --> 00:46:49,806
A LOT OF LEARNING IN FRONT OF

1373
00:46:49,806 --> 00:46:50,374
US.

1374
00:46:50,374 --> 00:46:52,342
BUT WE HAVE ENOUGH INFORMATION

1375
00:46:52,342 --> 00:46:54,545
AND DATA TO WHERE WE CAN KEEP

1376
00:46:54,545 --> 00:46:55,846
MOVING FORWARD IN A VERY

1377
00:46:55,846 --> 00:47:00,484
POSITIVE WAY.

1378
00:47:00,484 --> 00:47:02,653
IN THE LAST 48 HOURS I HAD 3

1379
00:47:02,653 --> 00:47:03,754
CONVERSATIONS WITH THE VICE

1380
00:47:03,754 --> 00:47:05,656
PRESIDENTS WITH THE CHAIRMAN OF

1381
00:47:05,656 --> 00:47:07,824
THE NATIONALITY SPACE COUNSEL IS

1382
00:47:07,824 --> 00:47:08,859
SILL AND HE'S FOLLOWING THIS

1383
00:47:08,859 --> 00:47:10,360
VERY CLOSELY AND I WILL TELL YOU

1384
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:12,930
HE'S CONFIDENT WE WILL LAUNCH

1385
00:47:12,930 --> 00:47:16,300
AMERICAN ASTRONAUTS ON AMERICAN

1386
00:47:16,300 --> 00:47:17,968
ROCKETS ON AMERICAN SOIL IN THE

1387
00:47:17,968 --> 00:47:19,036
VERY NEAR FUTURE.

1388
00:47:19,036 --> 00:47:20,671
THAT'S AN OBJECTIVE WE TEND TO

1389
00:47:20,671 --> 00:47:21,872
MEET AND IT'S GOING TO BE MET

1390
00:47:21,872 --> 00:47:24,775
PAUSE OUR GREAT TEAM AT NASA AND

1391
00:47:24,775 --> 00:47:28,445
GREAT PARTNERS AT BOEING.

1392
00:47:28,445 --> 00:47:30,614
MAKE NO MISTAKE THIS DID NOT GO

1393
00:47:30,614 --> 00:47:35,485
ACCORDING TO PLAN.

1394
00:47:35,485 --> 00:47:37,054
BUY ALSO TRUE WE GOT A LOT OF

1395
00:47:37,054 --> 00:47:38,088
REALLY GOOD INFORMATION SO THAT

1396
00:47:38,088 --> 00:47:41,358
WE CAN KEEP MAKE MEANINGFUL

1397
00:47:41,358 --> 00:47:48,799
PROGRESS.

1398
00:47:48,799 --> 00:47:50,534
>> I LIKE TO THANK NASA FOR

1399
00:47:50,534 --> 00:47:51,468
GIVING US A SHOT AND EARNING A

1400
00:47:51,468 --> 00:47:53,003
SPOT SO ON YOUR TEAM AND YOUR

1401
00:47:53,003 --> 00:47:55,305
OTHER GOVERNMENT PARTNERS AND I

1402
00:47:55,305 --> 00:47:57,507
LIKE TO EXPRESS BOEING REGRETS

1403
00:47:57,507 --> 00:47:59,743
TO THE ISS CREW TO WHOM WE DID

1404
00:47:59,743 --> 00:48:01,912
NOT BRING THE CHRISTMAS

1405
00:48:01,912 --> 00:48:02,246
PRESENTS.

1406
00:48:02,246 --> 00:48:03,113
NOT COOL.

1407
00:48:03,113 --> 00:48:03,947
WE OWN IT.

1408
00:48:03,947 --> 00:48:07,517
WE'RE NOT GREAT ABOUT THAT.

1409
00:48:07,517 --> 00:48:09,119
I LIKE TO COMMEND THE TECHNICAL

1410
00:48:09,119 --> 00:48:12,189
TEAMS.

1411
00:48:12,189 --> 00:48:14,725
THE TECHNICAL TEAMS WERE

1412
00:48:14,725 --> 00:48:17,427
SPECTACULAR AND FINALLY, I JUST

1413
00:48:17,427 --> 00:48:19,563
LIKE IT SAY, WE HAVE A GOING

1414
00:48:19,563 --> 00:48:21,865
DESIGN HERE. SHE FLEW TO SPACE

1415
00:48:21,865 --> 00:48:23,433
AND WE CAN CONTROL HER IN SPACE.

1416
00:48:23,433 --> 00:48:25,435
THE DOCKERS EXERCISED AND WE

1417
00:48:25,435 --> 00:48:26,737
DIDN'T WANT TO DO EVERYTHING WE

1418
00:48:26,737 --> 00:48:28,171
WANT TO DO BUT WE DON'T SEE

1419
00:48:28,171 --> 00:48:29,840
ANYTHING WRONG WITH THIS

1420
00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:30,507
SPACESHIP RIGHT NOW.

1421
00:48:30,507 --> 00:48:31,842
>> I WOULD LIKE TO FOLLOW-UP

1422
00:48:31,842 --> 00:48:33,744
WITH WHAT JEFF SAID.

1423
00:48:33,744 --> 00:48:35,379
FROM A NASA PERSPECTIVE WHEN WE

1424
00:48:35,379 --> 00:48:36,913
LOOK AT HOW THE LAUNCH VEHICLE

1425
00:48:36,913 --> 00:48:39,416
AND ATLAS AND STARLINER

1426
00:48:39,416 --> 00:48:41,418
PERFORMED IT'S AN INCREDIBLE

1427
00:48:41,418 --> 00:48:42,653
GOOD DESIGN AND WE DIDN'T SEE

1428
00:48:42,653 --> 00:48:43,420
ANY MAJOR PROBLEMS.

1429
00:48:43,420 --> 00:48:45,188
WE HAD A LITTLE ISSUE WITH THE

1430
00:48:45,188 --> 00:48:46,156
TIMER IN THE BEGINNING WHICH

1431
00:48:46,156 --> 00:48:47,924
CAUSED US TO GO INTO A DIFFERENT

1432
00:48:47,924 --> 00:48:48,759
PATH IN THE MISSION.

1433
00:48:48,759 --> 00:48:51,228
WHAT I HAVE SEEN OVER MY CAREER,

1434
00:48:51,228 --> 00:48:52,262
SOMETIMES WHEN YOU HEAD DOWN

1435
00:48:52,262 --> 00:48:54,364
THESE DIFFERENT PATHS WE

1436
00:48:54,364 --> 00:48:55,232
ACTUALLY LEARN MORE.

1437
00:48:55,232 --> 00:48:56,833
IF WE GET MORE DATA WE LEARN

1438
00:48:56,833 --> 00:48:59,369
MORE ABOUT THINGS THAT MAYBE WE

1439
00:48:59,369 --> 00:49:00,470
DIDN'T UNDERSTAND FULLY.

1440
00:49:00,470 --> 00:49:01,505
AT THE END OF THE DAY IT HELPS

1441
00:49:01,505 --> 00:49:04,141
YOU MOVE FORWARD MORE QUICKLY

1442
00:49:04,141 --> 00:49:04,941
WHEN YOU HAVE A PROBLEM LIKE

1443
00:49:04,941 --> 00:49:06,943
THIS AND YOU UNDERSTAND THE

1444
00:49:06,943 --> 00:49:08,445
SYSTEMS BETTER AND UNDERSTAND

1445
00:49:08,445 --> 00:49:10,847
HOW YOU'LL SOLVE THOSE PROBLEMS

1446
00:49:10,847 --> 00:49:12,215
AND MOVE FORWARD IN THE FUTURE.

1447
00:49:12,215 --> 00:49:13,817
WE HAD A GREAT DESIGN AND GREAT

1448
00:49:13,817 --> 00:49:15,786
YEAR WITH COMMERCIAL CREW AND

1449
00:49:15,786 --> 00:49:18,121
VERY EXCITED ABOUT THE TWO ORBIT

1450
00:49:18,121 --> 00:49:20,691
LAUNCHES AND TEST FLIGHTS AND

1451
00:49:20,691 --> 00:49:22,626
LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT YEAR

1452
00:49:22,626 --> 00:49:24,895
EARLY IN JANUARY WITH THE SPACEX

1453
00:49:24,895 --> 00:49:27,064
INFLIGHT ABORT TEST AND WE'RE ON

1454
00:49:27,064 --> 00:49:29,232
A GOOD TRAJECTORY TO RESUME

1455
00:49:29,232 --> 00:49:30,133
THOSE LAUNCHES

1456
00:49:30,133 --> 00:49:32,235
>> ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I

1457
00:49:32,235 --> 00:49:34,071
THINK YOU MENTIONED AND JIM

1458
00:49:34,071 --> 00:49:36,239
MENTIONED AS WELL.

1459
00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:38,008
WE HAVE A SOLID UNDERSTANDING OF

1460
00:49:38,008 --> 00:49:38,975
THE CHALLENGE THAT WE HAVE AND

1461
00:49:38,975 --> 00:49:40,711
WHY IT OCCURRED.

1462
00:49:40,711 --> 00:49:43,814
AND IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT IS

1463
00:49:43,814 --> 00:49:45,248
GOING TO PREVENT US FROM MOVING

1464
00:49:45,248 --> 00:49:46,016
FORWARD QUICKLY.

1465
00:49:46,016 --> 00:49:47,384
WE CAN STILL MOVE FORWARD

1466
00:49:47,384 --> 00:49:53,990
QUICKLY AND GET IT FIXED.

1467
00:49:53,990 --> 00:49:56,293
THAT ONE ITEM RESULTED IN OTHER

1468
00:49:56,293 --> 00:49:56,693
CHALLENGES.

1469
00:49:56,693 --> 00:49:59,196
THE TECHNICAL TEAM DID

1470
00:49:59,196 --> 00:50:01,898
MAGNIFICENT WORK TO SALVAGE AS

1471
00:50:01,898 --> 00:50:03,967
MANY OF THESE OBJECTIVES GETTING

1472
00:50:03,967 --> 00:50:04,701
ACCOMPLISHED AS POSSIBLE.

1473
00:50:04,701 --> 00:50:06,970
ONE TECHNICAL ISSUE HAD IT NOT

1474
00:50:06,970 --> 00:50:08,905
OCCURRED AND BY THE WAY HAD WE

1475
00:50:08,905 --> 00:50:11,708
HAD AN ASTRONAUT ON BOARD WE

1476
00:50:11,708 --> 00:50:13,443
VERY WELL MAY BE ON THE

1477
00:50:13,443 --> 00:50:14,144
INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION

1478
00:50:14,144 --> 00:50:14,611
RIGHT NOW.

1479
00:50:14,611 --> 00:50:16,346
OVERALL WE LEARNED A LOT.

1480
00:50:16,346 --> 00:50:18,215
BUT THERE'S A LOT MORE LEARNING

1481
00:50:18,215 --> 00:50:19,649
LEFT TO DO AS WE GET ALL THE

1482
00:50:19,649 --> 00:50:32,829
INFORMATION AND DATA.

1483
00:50:32,829 --> 00:50:33,730
WE ARE VERY SITED

1484
00:50:33,730 --> 00:50:35,098
>> THIS CONCLUDES OUR BRIEFING

1485
00:50:35,098 --> 00:50:36,700
ON THE BOEING STARLINER.

1486
00:50:36,700 --> 00:50:37,968
THANK YOU ALL FOR PARTICIPATING

1487
00:50:37,968 --> 00:50:39,636
