Nasa peerreviewed research is needed. You asked about critical areas of research. The life and physical sciences survey which was completed in 2011 at Congress Request summarized the sequence 6 summarized an sequenced 65 high priority tasks. Furthermore, the study created two research plans. One with the goal of building a Research Enterprise and the other with a goal of a Human Mission to mars. More about those goals in a moment. You asked about priorities. Prioritizing i. S. S. Research isnt a...

We could test on the ground. With that we had the greatest Carbon Dioxide removal system in the world. We get it on orbit, we find out that all of the dust clouds everything up. On the water system, the tubing is permeable to Carbon Dioxide. Carbon dioxide goes into the water system and creates a nutrient rich environment for bacteria. We tested on the ground and we saw none of those problems. Station can give you that chance to really dry run and test the equipment on orbit. You do not use stat...

People an opportunity to play around with this fancy software that you use. It made me think about is the pipeline of young talent like you there . What should we do to enhance it . If it is not, what should be . Great question. I think for me, the key to making more people like me well, actually, i do that not cloning, but my wife and i have a whole Program Based on that. [laughter] im sure my wife is just loving that right now. Over sharing, right . I think the most important thing that we can...

Need to get this. Again, if we talk about it with the breakthroughs. What we know now today, just expand it. We have life support on the station. We need to push it to where its reliable and doesnt require so much maintenance. We need to look at the parks to do repair. We are doing that on board. I dont consider those big breakthroughs. I have to get comfortable. Its the maturity level that we use for the nation they positively have to work. Thats the way i look at the challenges. The operation ...

Hearing on efforts to improve education on science, technology, engineering and math. The Mars Exploration summit began with opening remarks from nasa administrator charles bolden, he spoke about the importance of humans becoming a multiplanet species and nasas goal of putting humans on mars in the next two decades. This is 30 minutes. Thank you very much, and thanks to all of you for allowing me to be with you this morning and it kind of kick us off, i hope. I also want to thank explore mars as...

Budgets that we spent to become great in the world. Theres no reason i can see why we should not redress that grievance, although obviously its an uphill battle. No, i dont why not go for the big money . Well, were going for the biggest money we think we can logically go for right now. But i just think its unrealistic to assume that this congress and any future congress is going to jump to 4 of gdp. I just dont think 1 . We may get to 1 . Now 1 is 1 would be like a gold mine. Indeed. And im not ...

Period. The are russians have flown ons. Several yearlong missions. Its but if we look at the tools wih weve got today we can see if ht theres anything in the human system, to see if there is that something that degrades that hasnt reached study grade in terms of human degradation in keeping humans alive. How important is it to simulate a mars mission in lower earth orbit that way, and how close do you have to make it to a real mars mission to be a ma value . Do you build i n the to communicatio...

One way to look at it, apollo 13 with the event that it had. I believe that was around 84 hours. We had to keep the crew alive for 84 hours. So we had life support systems, if youre going to go to mars that have to work for months, possibly over a year, depending on how long it takes you to get there and how long you stay. We have to take the steps to get that in place. Its going to take some time to get a reliable system in place. We can land a metric ton on the surface of mars, thats all we kn...

Were trying to take the common pieces today. Yes . I have several questions, but we have a break coming up and people can be thinking about them. In relation to doing things in the past and then kind of putting them on the shelf, it reminds me of the h. L. 20 derived from the boar 4 photograph and a lot of wind tunnel tested and it was part of a program and it was put on the celestial. Jim benson bought it and now plark is doing it again. m just wondering if at tables was a program one time and ...
