00:00:08.166 --> 00:00:09.566
So blanketing, basically

2
00:00:09.566 --> 00:00:10.633
anything that goes in space

3
00:00:10.633 --> 00:00:11.233
either has to have

4
00:00:11.233 --> 00:00:13.033
a special coating or blanket,

5
00:00:13.033 --> 00:00:13.900
and what we do here is

6
00:00:13.900 --> 00:00:14.633
make the blankets.

7
00:00:14.633 --> 00:00:16.000
So those layers are

8
00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:16.866
what are protecting

9
00:00:16.866 --> 00:00:17.966
instruments,

10
00:00:18.366 --> 00:00:20.866
different hardware, satellites,

11
00:00:20.866 --> 00:00:22.333
whatever the case may be.

12
00:00:22.333 --> 00:00:23.433
And we

13
00:00:23.433 --> 00:00:24.533
we basically are

14
00:00:24.533 --> 00:00:25.733
pattern makers.

15
00:00:25.733 --> 00:00:27.100
We’re

16
00:00:27.100 --> 00:00:28.966
designing for spacecrafts

17
00:00:28.966 --> 00:00:30.466
like we would for a body.

18
00:00:30.833 --> 00:00:32.166
And right over here

19
00:00:32.166 --> 00:00:33.666
we have our layup table.

20
00:00:33.666 --> 00:00:35.800
Usually this is what we use

21
00:00:35.800 --> 00:00:37.666
to do our bulk layups,

22
00:00:37.666 --> 00:00:38.500
which are 12 feet

23
00:00:38.500 --> 00:00:39.333
four feet,

24
00:00:39.466 --> 00:00:39.900
and they’re

25
00:00:39.900 --> 00:00:40.966
how many layers

26
00:00:40.966 --> 00:00:42.033
the thermal engineer

27
00:00:42.033 --> 00:00:43.266
says we should have.

28
00:00:43.266 --> 00:00:45.666
They do testing to decide

29
00:00:45.666 --> 00:00:46.433
what they want that

30
00:00:46.433 --> 00:00:46.900
temperature

31
00:00:46.900 --> 00:00:47.900
to be regulated at,

32
00:00:47.900 --> 00:00:48.800
whether they want to keep it

33
00:00:48.800 --> 00:00:49.266
colder,

34
00:00:49.266 --> 00:00:50.666
they want to keep it warmer,

35
00:00:50.666 --> 00:00:51.600
and whatever the case may

36
00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:52.666
be, that’s what we do.

37
00:00:52.833 --> 00:00:53.900
We have

38
00:00:53.900 --> 00:00:55.533
two sewing machines.

39
00:00:56.300 --> 00:00:57.333
This is our newest one

40
00:00:57.333 --> 00:00:58.366
right here,

41
00:00:58.433 --> 00:00:59.466
and this is the one

42
00:00:59.466 --> 00:01:01.733
we use a lot right now

43
00:01:01.733 --> 00:01:03.166
when we do need to sew.

44
00:01:03.166 --> 00:01:04.300
The interesting thing

45
00:01:04.300 --> 00:01:05.500
that’s happened here lately

46
00:01:05.500 --> 00:01:06.966
is that I’ve gotten to work on

47
00:01:06.966 --> 00:01:08.400
the zero-gravity indicator doll

48
00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:09.666
which was a lot of fun.

49
00:01:09.666 --> 00:01:10.333
Because that’s

50
00:01:10.333 --> 00:01:11.866
probably the most sewing

51
00:01:11.866 --> 00:01:13.700
I’ve done here in years,

52
00:01:13.700 --> 00:01:14.666
which was

53
00:01:14.666 --> 00:01:16.200
really interesting,

54
00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:17.933
and I got to be more creative

55
00:01:17.933 --> 00:01:19.066
in a different way.

56
00:01:19.066 --> 00:01:20.800
This is the Moon right here,

57
00:01:20.800 --> 00:01:22.133
so working on that.

58
00:01:22.133 --> 00:01:23.833
There’s going to be a

59
00:01:23.833 --> 00:01:24.566
SD card

60
00:01:24.566 --> 00:01:25.833
that’s going to be

61
00:01:25.833 --> 00:01:28.433
put on the Rise doll,

62
00:01:28.433 --> 00:01:29.633
so I’m working through

63
00:01:29.633 --> 00:01:31.000
on that, how to do that,

64
00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:31.866
because it has to have

65
00:01:31.866 --> 00:01:32.533
a zipper.

66
00:01:32.566 --> 00:01:33.800
So I will be working

67
00:01:33.800 --> 00:01:35.033
on that today,

68
00:01:35.033 --> 00:01:35.666
figuring out how we’re

69
00:01:35.666 --> 00:01:36.766
going to put the zipper

70
00:01:36.766 --> 00:01:38.500
on the bottom of the Moon.

71
00:01:38.966 --> 00:01:41.033
The SD card can go in here,

72
00:01:41.033 --> 00:01:43.033
but my concern is,

73
00:01:43.033 --> 00:01:43.800
because I didn’t

74
00:01:43.800 --> 00:01:45.700
make it with material here,

75
00:01:45.700 --> 00:01:46.833
the SD card could

76
00:01:46.833 --> 00:01:47.866
slide through here.

77
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:48.766
So this a little bit of

78
00:01:48.766 --> 00:01:49.566
trial and error

79
00:01:49.566 --> 00:01:50.366
because I’m not sure if

80
00:01:50.366 --> 00:01:51.333
it’s going to work or not.

81
00:01:57.400 --> 00:01:58.933
One thing that

82
00:01:58.933 --> 00:01:59.333
makes me

83
00:01:59.333 --> 00:02:00.033
really proud

84
00:02:00.033 --> 00:02:01.000
is that something that

85
00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:01.666
I touched,

86
00:02:01.666 --> 00:02:02.866
that I made,

87
00:02:02.866 --> 00:02:04.533
is going to be

88
00:02:04.533 --> 00:02:05.700
around for a while,

89
00:02:05.700 --> 00:02:07.300
and it is going up in space.

90
00:02:07.300 --> 00:02:08.800
There’s no other way to say it.

91
00:02:09.333 --> 00:02:11.133
It’s a proud moment.
