WJLA On The Money April 3, 2016

On the moon a full 47 years ago. Nasas new goal is to get humans on mars in the next 20 years. In the middle of a new space race and thats our cover story this week. In 1961, president kennedy pledged to land astronauts on the moon. By 1969 millions of americans watched it happen from their living room tv sets. Thats one small step for man. One giant leap for mankind. Nasas space success continued in the 70s and 80s until disaster. In 1986, the Space Shuttle challenger exploded 73 seconds in to the flight and all seven crew members were lost. In 2003, the Space Shuttle columbia broke up before landing and all on board perished. Less than a year later a new vision for nasa including human exploration of mars with the space station. Scott kelly returned from a nearly year long Mission Testing the impact of Long Duration space flight on the human body. Nasa is testing the spacecraft, to take people further in to space. The first crew is expected to board in 2021. Can nasa build the systems to get astronauts back to mars and back home safely . Thank you for being here. Appreciate it. Thank you. My pleasure being here. Theres a lot of excitement about space these days. Part of that has to be from movies like t martian. Nasas goal to get astronauts to mars. What do you think is building the excitement . Why mars and why now . Mars is important because it is similar to earth we think and the history will help us to understand our own planet better and the reason is the want to know if there is life elsewhere in the universe. You think we can do this sometime soon. Watching the martian i was amazed at the difficulties and potential hazards. If we were just starting out i would have doubts but we have been sending precursor missions to mars for almost 50 years now. We think we are on the right trajectory to get humans to mars in the 2030ss. Are will russia and other countries help us or is this an american goal . No it is not. I it is truly an international venture. It will be absolutely essential to have International Partners with us. I know nasas budget request for 2017 is 19 billion, 3 increase from last year. What benefits do you think we can get out of the spending now . When you look at nasas budget you get four giant areas, one people talk about a the most bang for the buck comes from the smallest amount of the money, in aeronautics where we contribute to the largest balance of trade for the country. Im excited about that part of the budget for this year because we will start to build x planes again. We watched scott kelly who just came back from a year on the International Space station and its been amazing to hear the impact on his body. What are you learning from that experience to see how long we can spend in space and how do it better. Scotts mission was critical. It was a oneyear mission. Not the longest humans have been in space but the longest an american has been there over a sustained period of time. It will help us in the neverending quest to understand how he human body will function for long periods of time in the microgravity of space. He grew a few inches. It only lasted a few days, but. Its a point. Everyone who goes to space grows by some amount. Gravity is taken out of the equation. You are going around earth so rapidly that centrifugal force overcomes gravity and you have a sensation called floating. Unfortunately for short people like me, you go back to normal within days. Thats the only thing that tempted me to go to space. When i heard it was taemp rare fix, i thought okay, never mind. You would love it. You would sglets talk about the private ventures we have seen. Things like spacex and blue origin. Those projects is that good for nasa or is that competition . Good for nasa and the nation. Primarily because they help us to bring launches back to american soil, whether it is for cargo or people and so i would say they are incredibly value to this country. Administrator bolden, i know your name came up. Didnt it take a private meeting with president obama to convince you to do this . I would have taken the private meeting with the president for any reason but it did. That meeting was not where the question was popped. It was that meeting was to talk about my ideas on the Space Program and nasa. It wasnt billed as an interview for the job. I didnt get the invitation until a couple of months later. What goals would you say you have left, things you want to accomplish . Making sure we are on a steady path to mars. That we can get there in the 2030s is the number one thing id like to see. We are a lot closer than ever before. Getting astronauts able to fly on american spacecraft, getting the sls and orion flown, the deep space vehicle to carry astronauts around the moon and eventually to mars in the accomplishment launching the James Webb Space Telescope in 2013 and aeronautics as i mentioned before. Thank you for your time. All righty. You take care. Look at what is making news as we head in to a new week on the money. A solid jobs for the for march. The economy added 215,000 jobs.

There are a lot of different dimensions on which people have to have a good fit in order to make a marriage work. There are a lot of dimensions that people have to have a good fit to make job work. The last time you were here, dr. Warren, you told me the most important fact in finding a compatible mate is making sure they had the same level of intelligence. Is it the same with finding the right job . There are different kinds of intelligence, but you sure want the applicant and supervisor to have intelligence that meshes at least, and they have a real sense of what they are driving toward with the job. Intelligence is very important. What you are really doing is trying to find good matches with the employee and the people they are working for. How does that work . Were looking for a person who on life that really matches with the cultural perspective of the company. We have a 16item list that we carefully monitor to make sure that that cultural fit is good. The second thing is, we want a person who really has the skills and experience to do the job the Company Wants done. Thats key. We want an applicant and a supervisor and about the ten most key people around the applicant to really have a personality fit that works. You get those things, ill tell you, you can have a relationship at work thats as good as the relationships we built in our 2 million marriages that we put together. The buzz word in work place days is diversity. The argument is people have to see things differently to make sure they are not all being yes men to how do you match it up with the idea of being compatible. At the center of diversity is a personality, a perspective on life the person has. An applicant has that personality and a supervisor has that personality. It transcends all other barriers. Lets get back to dating sites. Eharmony has been a site that worked hard to be compatible and can find marriage partners. What do you think of tinder that is a hook up site . Im terribly sad about it. They wont work. We almost ruined our culture in america by having a divorce rate that got up to 50 .
