My name is Robert Buchanan, I'm the Deputy
Project Manager for TDRS and I've been

3
00:00:05,100 --> 00:00:10,620
on TDRS for 10 years.  In 2006, we launched
stereo and I was asked by the directorate

4
00:00:10,620 --> 00:00:14,099
to come over to the TDRS project to
support the source evaluation board.

5
00:00:14,099 --> 00:00:18,600
Working on TDRS last 10 years has
been quite a bit different than the

6
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,199
first 25 years I've been at NASA, which
involved in science, which is what

7
00:00:22,199 --> 00:00:25,350
TDRS supports.  What I find unique about the TDRS team is

8
00:00:25,350 --> 00:00:27,440
that they been on this project or this
program for

9
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,550
so many years. Some of them

10
00:00:29,550 --> 00:00:33,750
have been on the program maybe their
entire career or majority of their

11
00:00:33,750 --> 00:00:38,100
entire career. Having all that experience
from those other of people have helped me quite 

12
00:00:38,100 --> 00:00:41,480
a bit in terms of my success on the program.
