00:00:04.040 --> 00:00:08.040


3
00:00:08.060 --> 00:00:12.060
Well as the lead mechanical, I'm responsible for the design

4
00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:16.100
and the fabrication of the structure of the spacecraft. We're also responsible for

5
00:00:16.120 --> 00:00:20.130
all mechanical ground support equipment that's used lift and move

6
00:00:20.150 --> 00:00:24.150
the spacecraft throughout the facility and ground support equipment that

7
00:00:24.170 --> 00:00:28.170
the spacecraft resides in on its journey from Goddard to Japan.

8
00:00:28.190 --> 00:00:32.170
Well throughout the design there's various challenges, one noteworthy one

9
00:00:32.190 --> 00:00:36.230
was to basically integrate the prop system which has most

10
00:00:36.250 --> 00:00:40.260
of its components and fuel tank at the bottom end of the spacecraft but

11
00:00:40.280 --> 00:00:44.300
also the four components the, four thrusters at the top of the spacecraft

12
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:48.330
which, the way the fuel lines are all welded together they wanted to

13
00:00:48.350 --> 00:00:52.370
integrate all that as a single unit.

14
00:00:52.390 --> 00:00:56.370

00:00:56.390 --> 00:01:00.390

00:01:04.410 --> 00:01:08.400

00:01:08.420 --> 00:01:12.410
