They burn together and once lit it can be turned off but it isn't going to be turned back on. it turns on and off and burn for two minutes and the pilots are here because it's a -- machine unlike jeff bezos on blue origin tsa i controlled. on the vss, it is hand flown and the pilot is flying a very careful trajectory to use that two minutes of engine thrust in a vertical way that gets them to peak altitude. if you are off 2 or 3 percentage, you will not hit the target altitude, you'll go down range. >> jeimeson is back with us. the first woman of color in space. a former nasa astronaut. what a...

Police patrols on a daily basis visit that area during the busy hours to warn persons to stay away. police say this was the first death at the site. the victim was visiting from new zealand. in 2012 the blast sent this woman head first into a concrete wall. despite the signs warning against it, tourists tried to hold on tight to the fence under the force of the jet engines but some are just no match for the force. landing planes are also an attraction, flying mere feet above the beach. police in st. martin do not have statistics on how many people have been injured in these incidents, but tell...

Get right something we never anticipated or specifically trained for, and being in the open ocean would be a much more challenging situation, but over water in general, it's featureless terrain where depth perception is difficult, descending without engine thrust, much steeper and rapidly than a virtual landing on a runway where you can make a more gradual approach. it would be a very challenging thing to do but it's possible theoretically possible. >> i went back to your audio from 2009 u.s. airways audio, and one of the things that struck me was that you were in constant contact with air tra...

Room" yesterday and he talked with cnn's brianna keilar how difficult a landing would be. >> that's an interesting problem too. it's been done. it's more challenging, obviously, in the open ocean than in inland waterway. at least in the united states in our flight simulators it's not possible to practice a water landing. for our water landing the only training we had gotten for a water landing was a classroom discussion. there was a checklist. there was protocol. we had never done it. we had one chance to get the right something we never anticipated or specifically trained for and being in the...
