Massimino: Hi.
I'm Mike Massimino.
For the past few shuttle flights we've taken you behind the scenes to meet the crews as
they train for their flights and the people around the country who make those missions
fly.MM: But there's a lot of footage that we haven't
shown you yet, so we'd like to take you back to some of our recent flights and introduce
you to more of the people who do everything at NASA.
MM: We hope you enjoy this episode of NASA Behind
The Scenes.MM: It was pretty cool having John Glenn here,
wasn't it?Stephan Messersmith: It was super cool.
It was super cool.MM: Because yeah, it was-
that was like, I had- well, I guess I was in the office for about three years when that
happened when he was here.MM: It was pretty awesome
having him walk- you know and he's- he's a cool guy.SM:
Yeah.SM: I remember one quote.
We- we were doing a SIM.MM: Yeah.<p begin="00:00:48.766"
end="00:00:53.800">SM: And some of the FDF wasn't quite right.<p begin="00:00:51.866"
end="00:00:54.500">MM: Yeah.SM: So, a couple of the
astronauts were complaining, you know.
We had to get FDF to come in and that kind of stuff.MM:
Yeah and FDF is your- we- it was your checklist.
Right?SM Yeah.
Yeah.MM: All of your procedures and your checklist.
What you got to- right.
Right.
Yeah.SM: All the- all the documents and the flight
data files that- what they read to upright the ship and that kind of stuff.<p begin="00:01:06.066"
end="00:01:12.133">SM: And John was sitting there and he was watching all this because
it wasn't involved in his area-MM: Yeah.<p begin="00:01:10.366"
end="00:01:15.766">SM: And he- he looks at me and he goes, "They'd have never made
it my days."SM: And I just- "What?"
SM: He goes- he said, man, he said, "We were
going out to the launchpad and they would be typing the new FDF and they would hand
it to us of all the new changes as we crawled into the space craft."<p begin="00:01:24.733"
end="00:01:31.466">SM: The new astronauts were complaining about it wasn't proper for
just-MM: Yeah.
Yeah.SM: Because they had never made it my days.<p
begin="00:01:29.833" end="00:01:32.666">MM: Can you imagine?<p begin="00:01:29.833"
end="00:01:33.366">SM: That was kind of funny.MM:
Yeah, because we- man, you got to turn that stuff in, like, way ahead of time.<p begin="00:01:34.800"
end="00:01:37.433">SM:Yeah.
Well, they would-MM: This is going to be
published and checked and- my, gosh.SM:
And yes.
That's right.
They were just typing it up though.SM:
All of a sudden, "Here.
Here's the new changes."MM: That's pretty cool.
That's a good story.SM: It was- it was pretty
good.Speaker: Come on in, Mike.<p begin="00:02:03.866"
end="00:02:07.533">MM: I'm your substitute for NASA Management.<p begin="00:02:08.633"
end="00:02:13.933">MM: I'm- I'm your sub for NASA Management.
Let me get a- what's that?
Let me get out of the way.Speaker 2: You don't look
like it.MM: I don't- all right.<p begin="00:02:13.633"
end="00:02:16.500">Speaker 3: Doesn't sound like her either.<p begin="00:02:16.700"
end="00:02:19.000">MM: No.MM: There's a- there's
a lot of differences-Speaker 4: Don't you know
you're supposed to face the door on an elevator?MM:
I'm not here.
I'm just an observer.Speaker 5: You're not here?<p
begin="00:02:24.833" end="00:02:27.800">MM: No.
I'm just an observer.Speaker 4: It's just a
camera.Speaker 6: Don't make eye contact.
MM: Hi.
[INAUDIBLE].Speaker 7: You're out of line.
Alan Poindexter: So, we're going to- we're going
to walk out and we're going to- I'm going to stop in front of the [INAUDIBLE].<p
begin="00:02:50.366" end="00:02:52.866">AP: You guys ready?<p begin="00:02:51.333"
end="00:02:54.000">All: Yeah.Jerry: How are you?<p
begin="00:03:13.466" end="00:03:15.533">MM: Howdy.MM:
Good.
How are you?Jerry: Good.MM:
I'm going to get on [INAUDIBLE].
All right.
I'm just going to follow him.Jerry: Just follow him
all the way up.MM: All right.<p begin="00:03:29.033"
end="00:03:31.833">Jerry: [INAUDIBLE].MM:
All right.
Thanks Jerry.MM: You going to ride with them?<p begin="00:03:42.900"
end="00:03:45.500">MM: You going to go fast?Speaker
9: Yep.MM: Stephanie, what are we doing today?
What's going on?
Where are we?Stephanie Wilson: We're in the air strip.
We're coming home, aren't we?MM: No.<p begin="00:03:52.200"
end="00:03:56.000">Speaker 10: She took hallucinogens.MM:
Where are we headed?SW: We're headed to the
pad.MM: Look it.
You got a special escort out there.SW:
Yeah.MM: Yeah.AP:
Did you guys hear the helicopter calling?MM:
Yeah.AP: Would anyone like a drink?
MM: We're going to go to the- right?<p begin="00:04:05.333"
end="00:04:17.233">SW: Walk around the pad a little bit.
Today is the RSS in orbit but you can't really see the orbiter but on launch day we can take
a minute to walk around the pad and look at the beauty of the staff-<p begin="00:04:15.666"
end="00:04:27.833">SW: Before we get in and we'll ride the elevator up to one ninety-five
level.
As Dr. Piers Sellers says, we have the opportunity to use the last potty on Earth if so desired.<p
begin="00:04:16.033" end="00:04:18.200">MM: Yeah.SW:
And if not we- we get in the vehicle.
First Jackson and Clay will get in and then Jim and I will get in, then Rick and [INAUDIBLE]
then Dotty.MM: All right.SW:
And then we'll hang out on the pad until we're ready to get strapped in.<p begin="00:04:41.366"
end="00:04:48.866">SW: Then they'll close the hatch.
We'll simulate all the steps that there are to the launch countdown.<p begin="00:04:46.866"
end="00:04:56.333">SW: Then they'll actually call a scrub force so we can practice depressing,
then we'll get to get in the baskets, not really ride them but just get inside.<p
begin="00:04:53.500" end="00:04:58.100">MM: Right.
Just get in the baskets.
All right.SW: And then we're done.<p begin="00:04:57.600"
end="00:05:01.033">MM: But it's just like launch day.SW:
It's just like launch day.MM: Except no launch.<p
begin="00:05:01.566" end="00:05:04.466">SW: That's right.
Except no launch.MM: Right.<p begin="00:05:03.266"
end="00:05:07.233">MM: Lunch but no launch.SW:
Lunch but no launch.Speaker 11: That's right.<p
begin="00:05:09.633" end="00:05:12.400">AP: [INAUDIBLE] With lunch and launch.<p begin="00:05:10.933"
end="00:05:13.200">MM: Really?AP: Hey Mike.
You want to go to lunch?AP: No.
We're going to go get a sandwich and then, you know-MM:
Oh.
Okay.AP: For lunch.
Right?
We're going down to the Cape to watch the lunch.MM:
Here we go.Speaker 12: Here we go.<p begin="00:05:25.433"
end="00:05:28.666">MM: Next stop: space shuttle.AP:
Next stop: space.
The final frontier.Speaker 13: That's right.<p
begin="00:05:32.366" end="00:05:35.600">MM: It's not your average elevator.<p begin="00:05:34.133"
end="00:05:37.433">AP: There's a starship.Speaker
13: No.Speaker 13: And it may open.<p begin="00:05:42.966"
end="00:05:45.433">SW: Hey, hey, hey.Speaker
14: Hey, good morning.
Good morning, Dex.
How are you doing?AP: Good, sir.
How are you?Speaker 14: Great.
You guys a little warm this morning?
It's a little bit warmer.MM: Hello, fellows.
How's it going?AP: You guys [INAUDIBLE].<p
begin="00:06:13.866" end="00:06:17.000">SW: Yeah.MM:
Want to show me something over there?Speaker
15: I do?
What?MM: The toilet.Speaker
15: Oh.
They're about to- Jim's going to go use it.MM:
All right.
Well, let me go take a look.Speaker 15: The last toilet
on Earth is-MM: The last toilet on Earth.
Come on.
Let's go take a look.MM: We can always edit
this.
I'm not one- I don't want to show you the- but this is the last toilet on Earth.
Close before launch.
There you go.
[INAUDIBLE].Speaker 15: [INAUDIBLE] are disconnected, so-<p
begin="00:06:40.766" end="00:06:44.333">MM: It's a beautiful day here in Florida though,
isn't it?SW: [INAUDIBLE].
It is.Speaker 15: No, they're not ready for us.
[INAUDIBLE].MM: All right.What's going on here now?<p
begin="00:06:55.000" end="00:06:58.066">Speaker 16: Making sure they grab the right helmets.<p
begin="00:06:56.566" end="00:06:59.700">MM: Hey.
Is Travis in here somewhere?Travis: Here.<p begin="00:07:00.233"
end="00:07:02.333">Travis: What's up?MM:
Travis.Travis: Hey, thank you.<p begin="00:07:01.766"
end="00:07:05.766">MM: It's a key to the space shuttle I think.
Is that they key?MM: It's for you.<p

That's it.MM: It's an actual key.
