this we will have to buy with our partners to make sure that we do not lose access to the international space station. it is a critical capability for our country. critical capability to commercialize lower orbit. the international space station is the tool we are using to commercialize space. that is a high priority. jeff: one of the key elements of the program is suffering a number of delays. in march he suggested that nasa might skip a key test called the green run. have you made the decision about andher to use the green run what is your response to the criticism? rocket is the first of its kind. it is the biggest rocket ever built. it is the most powerful rocket ever built. there are a lot of things that go into this that are first. in development we find new things we need to fix or correct. there have been flips. we are committed to cost and schedule. we are making changes with personnel. we have already had this discussion. in order to make sure we have realistic schedules and we are sticking to the realistic schedules. that we use that rocket because it is the only capability that can take h

so let's head to the front of the international space station. ng you get to see every day. we are now in front of the international space station. alison mcintire as chief of nasa's space vehicle mockup society and she is giving us a tour of her realm. we are in amongst past spacecraft, prototypes of future ships, and a replica of the international space station that is used to train future astronauts. we have a canadian, three americans, and then two russian crewmembers. every american who is flowing to space since 1980 has has trained in this facility. we had an emergency scenario where you pump smoke into the module and they run their procedure through it. and nasa is responsible for all the integrated training. so while the crewmembers may go to russia to get their russian systems training, to europe to get training on the lombaerts european space agency's module, and here we do integrated training, the emergency scenarios, here we do integrated training, the emergency scenarios, and then these routine operations, which is sort of a day in th

certainly we will be working with our partners to make sure we do not lose access to the international space station. it is a critical capability for our country. a critical capability to orbit,ialize glow earth both of launch and habitation. the international space station is the tool we are using to commercialize space. that is a high priority. jeff: one of the key elements of the extortion program is space monitoring. it has suffered always -- it has suffered delays. in march, you suggested that nasa might skip a key test called the green run. have you made the decision about whether to use the green run and if not, how will you address some of the criticism of that proposal from such organizations? jim: a couple of things, the sls rocket is the first of its kind. it is the biggest rocket ever built in human history. it is the most powerful rocket ever built in human history. however the statue of liberty, so there are a lot of things that go into this that are first. in development we find new things we need to fix or correct. that being said, yes, there have been slips, as you are aware. we are

this is russians apply spatial petting to the international space station. we are expecting left off momentarily. you can see progress 73 launching from kazikstan. it will take about three hours to get up to the international space station. that is a cargo resupply ship, loaded with three tons of food. the progress 73 would actually stay docked at the international space station until mid december. there are already three other ships currently docked there. no doubt the astronauts on the international space station are excited to get new supplies, and hopefully some fresh food and equipment. >> you got a lovely life news desk. she is watching the live feed and we get a chance to see it. >> straightahead, a youtube software engineer accused of going on a drug fueled rampage. the dramatic new video that was just released. >>> all smooth sailing at the weather department for the next couple of days. we warm back up a bit for the weekend. it will not be like the heat of last weekend. but still a change. i will have that the details, coming up. >>> clearly taking

that is resupplied to the international space station. now we are doing commercial to the international space station, and the value is this. this is a public-private partnership where we are going to have the opportunity in the future to have nasa be one customer of many customers in a very robust marketplace in lower orbit, where the costs go down, access goes up, but we also want to make sure, this is important, we have numerous providers competing against each other on cost and innovation. and as they compete, our costs will go down and access goes up. the goal being we want more access to space than ever before. that is ultimately how we are going to go to the moon. that is how we are going to get to mars, and there are markets out there that are not nasa. that is a good thing for our country. president trump: what about our defense industry? >> nasa has a lot of technology we developed that the department of defense takes advantage of, and that goes back to alan shepard launching into space. he launched on an icbm. there is a lot of

the view is quite literally out of this world.on ast scott kelley spent 340 days on the international space station setting an american record for the longest single space mission and while there, he also took photographs.ds :undof them, and compiled them into a book "infinite wonder: an astronaut's photographs from a year in space." >> as an astronaut, photograph is a really big part of your... of your job because we take pictures for scientific reasons. we take pictures for engineering reasons. and then, take, you know, photos to, you know, share with the public what we're doing in space. so, you know, it became part of my job, and i, you know, became interested in it, but really as a result of flying in space. i think the book has three sections. it talks about the mission of flying in space. then, e'tha section called "the natural world," which is pictures of the earth or spacend that you can f recognize what... what they are. and then, the last section is a section that we call "ear art," how you can take photos of the earth and really make it ok like a... a wall-worthy piece of artwork... my

we teamed up and ended up winning the contract, which is the international space station suit now. our history, and it is constantly evolving -- we had 21 different suit designs. more than 280 different suits. we are probably a little over that, but it is hard to keep track of all of the suit designs, but that is a rough number. we built for nasa. we have the suit that alan eustis wore. the jump that he made from 25 miles up, we built that suit for alan eustis. any mishapsife or due to any assembly. we have had minor things, but nothing that caused the mission any issues. on the moon, for sure. and moreided 440 eva's than 3100 total eva hours. ilc, we have a houston office where we are developing the next generation suits, focusing on lightweight design, less hardware, reconfigurable to fit a diverse group of astronauts. so it can be reconfigured in size. suits designed for zero g or planetary use so that we can have a lower torso that can be used for vehicular activity and zero g with a lower force on the soft upper torso that could have planetary -- more lower torso mobility with

shuttling people and things to the space station and governments and organizations like nasa should concentrate on other things? >> well, first of all, i think the internationalpace station program is one of its great successes. it shows us that doing complicated things you can do that with an international coalition that allows you to spread the cost, it gives you redundancy, but also having companies like, you know, the boeing, spacex, blue origin involved they are able to do things a little bit leaner, a little bit quicker than traditional government programs. so i think right now between the international -- between international cooperation and this kind of new, you know, space companies is really, i think, the wave of the future. >> scott kelly, good to see you as always. thank you for joining me on this important anniversary. please tune in tomorrow we will be interviewing the nasa administrator. thank you for watching "velshi & ruhle." i will see you back here at 3:00. you can watch or listen to "velshi & ruhle" on tune in sirius xm radio, msnbc.com/now. the msnbc app or apple tv. i'm still getting used to this, i am not familiar with the idea that yo

a former nasa astronaut an international space station commander he says the sight of her story is a huge deal such an amazing event i remember like it was yesterday i was 8 years old at the time and this is what inspired me started my dream one day wanting to become an astronaut myself and i think what it did it mean everyone around the world it matter what country you were from just amazed that humans could reach such a goal and i think it made everybody individually and collectively tried a little harder dream a little higher and reach a little higher yes speaking of frenching a little higher though how realistic do you think is the u.s. is planning to go back to the moon by 2024 and ultimately the plan is in fact to get to mars. right so it depends on the way that it's done i think 1st of all you do need the political will you need the funding those need to show up and so i'm not sure that that is going to happen in time to make 2024 i think we're going to try but if you're creative about it and partner with some of these commercial companies companies like space x. and blue orig

ones that will be sustainable, where we will stay in lunar orbit or on the moon or go the international space station are preparing us for that timeframe, because we're going to have to travel in space for long periods of time. >> we should remember, as we count down to this liftoff and we think about the future of space exploration that it's no easy thing. there's a reason why there's a saying, well, it ain't rocket science. this is rocket science. 18 people over the history of spaceflight have died in space exploration, 18 americans, 4 from other countries. what's at stake when people sit atop of a rocket like they do on that pad out there? >> it is an explosive event and there are lots and lots and lots of things that can go wrong, but we have an incredible team of engineers and scientists who have designed, who built, who fabricated, who have tested every component. and by every component, it's iond monf ono be quiet the nerves when you're sitting there? >> it's trust, trust in the team. >> yeah? i have the same here. >> but there's so much excitement. so much excitement to be on the launch pad,

competing with each other to show their superiority, but they now work together on the international space stationa rs. hope on the lunar gateway in coming years. and so space really is a place where it is much better when all the different countries work together. this is all going to cost, and it is costing, isn't it? i mean you work with the uk agency, is there enough money out there? well we, the budget in the uk are perhaps surprisingly smaller than some people think. it costs about a pound per person per year, that's it, for the whole of our exploration endeavours, not just human, the whole of our exploration endeavours, notjust human, but the great robotic things we do. sending livers to go and investigate, if there is life on mars, and those sorts of things. and byjoining with our european friends, we come together, ourjob at the uk space agency is to make sure that the uk gets the most benefit we can from all of our space endeavours. that includes exploration, we don't do these things just because it's fun. there is always a good economic case there, business case, and great scientific re
