space 14:15.733 --> 14:18.466 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:47.5% and it started when dad pointed out Sputnik 14:18.600 --> 14:21.633 align:start position:15% line:10% size:55% in the backyard flying overhead, and the satellite, 14:21.766 --> 14:23.400 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:42.5% and at that time, 14:23.533 --> 14:28.133 align:start position:10% line:10% size:80% I had a little dime store turtle who quickly became "Sputnik" 14:28.733 --> 14:32.700 align:start position:15% line:10% size:72.5% and when Sputnik passed away, my parents even had 14:32.833 --> 14:35.300 align:start position:12.5% line:10% size:75% a gold ring made, of a turtle, 14:35.433 --> 14:37.166 align:start position:20% line:10% size:62.5% and this was poor Sputnik 14:37.300 --> 14:42.066 align:start position:15% line:10% size:70% and I wore this Sputnik ring as a good luck charm 14:42.200 --> 14:44.233 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75% for all of astronaut training. 14:44.366 --> 14:47.433 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5% And it all started when I was a high school biology, 14:47.566 --> 14:49.166 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75% chemistry and physics teacher, 14:49.300 --> 14:51.933 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:70% and um, it was in August and 14:52.066 --> 14:56.066 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75% I was getting ready for school and I heard on the radio that 14:56.200 --> 14:59.300 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:65% President Reagan was going to send a teacher into space. 14:59.433 --> 15:02.800 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:52.5% And when I went to my high school, my principal said, 15:02.933 --> 15:04.800 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:37.5% "Kathleen, this one's for you." 15:04.933 --> 15:08.366 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5% I'd mountain climbed on every continent and, and he said, 15:08.500 --> 15:11.100 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:42.5% "Well," you know, "you've done the land, 15:11.233 --> 15:12.700 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:55% space is what's left." 15:12.833 --> 15:17.066 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:62.5% And so, I applied, as did almost 12,000 other teachers 15:17.200 --> 15:21.133 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70% and so then there was a down select to 112 and from the 15:21.266 --> 15:24.433 align:start position:20% line:10% size:60% 112 became the 10 of us. 15:24.566 --> 15:28.266 align:start position:15% line:10% size:72.5% And it was through a two-week conference, we met a lot of 15:28.400 --> 15:30.300 align:start position:22.5% line:10% size:55% the Apollo astronauts, 15:30.433 --> 15:34.666 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:60% a lot of the judges went through um, NASA headquarters, 15:34.800 --> 15:36.633 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5% Goddard Spaceflight Center. 15:36.766 --> 15:40.633 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:42.5% We were told that nothing was by chance, 15:40.766 --> 15:43.833 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:77.5% that every breakfast, lunch and dinner there actually was a 15:43.966 --> 15:48.366 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80% NASA person, it was orchestrated that there was someone next to 15:48.500 --> 15:52.466 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5% us to make sure that we, when we returned from space, 15:52.600 --> 15:55.500 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5% could communicate the experience to anyone. 15:55.633 --> 15:58.633 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5% So I was thrilled to become one of the 10, and to go 15:58.766 --> 16:00.800 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5% through the astronaut training, 16:00.933 --> 16:03.533 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:37.5% and there's the picture of the 10 of us 16:03.666 --> 16:08.200 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:55% and that's the KC-135, and you can see the parabola, 16:08.333 --> 16:12.400 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50% we did, we did about 20 parabolas in um, 16:12.533 --> 16:15.200 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:52.5% in 40 minutes and um, 16:15.333 --> 16:17.966 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5% we experienced weightlessness and we had fun 16:18.100 --> 16:20.866 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:67.5% and in fact when we got the video it was, we were laughing 16:21.000 --> 16:23.700 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5% and giggling we were like a bunch of kids at recess 16:23.833 --> 16:25.266 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40% in a schoolyard. 16:25.400 --> 16:27.433 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45% We had so much fun being weightless. 16:27.566 --> 16:30.933 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5% The journey had its highs and lows, you know, losing, losing 16:31.066 --> 16:34.900 align:start position:12.5% line:10% size:75% Christa and, and losing, being there at the Challenger crew 16:35.033 --> 16:38.233 align:start position:10% line:10% size:72.5% and had just, I was there you know, when the accident happened 16:38.366 --> 16:41.333 align:start position:17.5% line:10% size:65% and I'd just even finished talking to her parents. 16:41.966 --> 16:44.000 align:start position:20% line:10% size:55% And Christa and I were really close, we're about 16:44.133 --> 16:49.500 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80% two or three months apart in our age and um, and it was just 16:49.633 --> 16:53.466 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70% an extraordinary experience, you know, beyond the, 16:53.600 --> 16:56.833 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:35% beyond the um, astronaut training, 16:56.966 --> 17:00.666 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5% and when I arrived home from one NASA event 17:00.800 --> 17:04.900 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:45% I got this package and it was from this um, 17:05.033 --> 17:09.766 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5% Maryland, uh retired, fighter pilot, test pilot and he wrote 17:09.900 --> 17:15.366 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5% this book, "Voyages Into Airy Regions" and he sent me his 17:15.500 --> 17:19.866 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:55% command fighter pilot, test pilot wings and it was 17:20.000 --> 17:24.566 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5% really touching, in the letter, you know, he said, that he said, 17:24.700 --> 17:29.033 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:65% "I've taken these wings as high and as far and as fast as 17:29.166 --> 17:31.766 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5% I'm able and it would be nice if you could take them the 17:31.900 --> 17:33.133 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:42.5% rest of the way." 17:33.266 --> 17:34.500 align:start position:40% line:84.67% size:22.5% ROSS: Mm. 17:34.633 --> 17:37.733 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75% GUEST: And it was just things, many, many stories like that. 17:37.866 --> 17:44.000 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5% And after NASA I had gone to uh, Westinghouse and 17:44.133 --> 17:46.633 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65% Westinghouse had built, in Baltimore, had built the 17:46.766 --> 17:50.500 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5% Apollo camera and so they had invited Mike Collins, 17:50.633 --> 17:54.466 align:start position:17.5% line:10% size:67.5% the Apollo astronaut to um, to give the keynote speech. 17:55.166 --> 17:59.066 align:start position:12.5% line:10% size:75% So, since I was working at, at NAS, at Westinghouse and they 17:59.200 --> 18:00.800 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:60% knew my NASA background, 18:00.933 --> 18:06.366 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75% they had me reduce that Apollo mission down to 10 minutes. 18:06.900 --> 18:10.900 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65% So right before we were to go on stage I said to Mike, 18:11.033 --> 18:14.666 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5% I said, "I reduced the Apollo footage to 10 minutes, 18:14.800 --> 18:16.466 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:35% do you want to take a look at it?" 18:16.600 --> 18:20.166 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5% And he said, "No," he said, you know, "I, I know the mission," 18:20.300 --> 18:22.666 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:60% and he said, "I'm good." 18:22.800 --> 18:27.533 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65% So, we're sitting there on stage and it's show time, 18:27.666 --> 18:31.200 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75% there are all the Westinghouse employees and he leans over 18:31.333 --> 18:35.533 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5% and he says to me, "Kathleen, I want you to narrate it." 18:35.666 --> 18:38.366 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60% Well, there's no way you say no to Mike Collins, 18:38.500 --> 18:39.800 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40% so I don't know, 18:39.933 --> 18:42.233 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:47.5% before I knew it, I stood up there and I said, 18:42.366 --> 18:46.166 align:start position:20% line:10% size:60% "Well, I'm going to show you Mike's home movies," 18:46.300 --> 18:49.066 align:start position:17.5% line:10% size:27.5% and I said, "his vacation to the moon." 18:49.200 --> 18:52.233 align:start position:15% line:10% size:72.5% And so, everybody laughed and I felt really you know, calm. 18:52.833 --> 18:56.966 align:start position:17.5% line:10% size:67.5% And so, then we went to the VIP dining room at NASA, 18:57.100 --> 19:00.533 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:52.5% and NASA had given us these Apollo food tubes. 19:00.666 --> 19:04.700 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5% So, I hid the Apollo food tube under his napkin, 19:04.833 --> 19:06.766 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:62.5% so he picks up his napkin 19:06.900 --> 19:10.700 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:30% and he says, "What the hell is this?" 19:10.833 --> 19:13.566 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:70% And I said, "Well you of all people should know what it is." 19:13.700 --> 19:17.833 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75% And he said, "Yep I do" and he grabs a sharpie and he puts, 19:17.966 --> 19:20.466 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:37.5% writes on here, that you can see, 19:20.600 --> 19:22.666 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5% "Kathleen owes me a martini." 19:22.800 --> 19:27.200 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75% And in fact, he actually wrote it, in, when he autographed 19:27.333 --> 19:31.166 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:47.5% the book, you know, "Kathleen owes me a martini." 19:31.300 --> 19:35.033 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:67.5% So about two or three years later, at a space conference, 19:35.166 --> 19:38.933 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:60% there were open bars all around and there was Mike, 19:39.066 --> 19:41.700 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:45% talking to people, I went over to the bar, 19:41.833 --> 19:44.066 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:47.5% I got a martini and I went over and I said, 19:44.200 --> 19:47.100 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:40% "Mike, I deliver on my promises." 19:47.233 --> 19:50.200 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:45% And so, it kind of had really good closure. 19:50.333 --> 19:51.533 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:25% ROSS: Hmm. 19:51.666 --> 19:54.633 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5% GUEST: And really touching moments, 19:54.766
