and by 1950 get to huntsville alabama that becomes rocket city usa and he is the one that builds a saturn and that's what takes us to the moon when kennedy met him in 1953 in new york city they were judges four times man of the year the reason he was picked he was writing articles about going to the moon in mars there wasn't much animus against germans as you would have thought. i would've thought there would have been disney put him on his tv shows so he came a celebrity. and kennedy just won the senate seat 1952 so they should chose the west german chancellor as the man of the year but it tells you at that moment in time we were trying to braying west germany into nato and as our ally so he wasn't stigmatized and i did not like him a lot because al - - because he was the allied supreme commander so maybe with those vanguard rockets but they were defective so kennedy is a beneficiary to go with von braun who said say what you want his rockets were flawlessly constructed and he would work quickly but was even mocked for being so safety prone he would not shortcut so that giant saturn five

and a saturn because of the planet returning? exactly.battle but it symbolises lessons and growth, that's what saturn does. so the idea is that every 30 years, around 30 and 60, big life changes happen. maybe you have to leave that job you have been stuck in, a relationship, a divorce. 60 you are retiring, usually times have changed basically. a big life change. if only there was an award perhaps to win. how do you rate your chances tonight, you're up against big acts? i've never won anything in my life. nothing? nothing at school? was there not a singing contest you could have one at school? i literally did so many when i was little and everyone. what were doing wrong? choice of material?|j little and everyone. what were doing wrong? choice of material? i did not bring enough people into a chairfor me, ithink bring enough people into a chairfor me, i think that's what it was, basically a popularity contest. i've got my mum and my brother with me. if you win how loudly will they cheer? they're very conservative people so they just a cheer

the saturn five is in the background but building something comparable to the saturn five and launch to a place like mars. one of the things is by the way and i'm not just saying the private sector but considerthis , some years back, there we go. a rocket has the cones on the bottom, the nozzles where fire and everything comes out from the ignition and at one point he had a rocket he was going to test and his engineers came and said third, there's a crack about six inches right at the bottom there. what you want to do? if it had been nasa it would been where not going to launch the thing, over got going have to have a study to see what the implications are, run it through every agency and it's going to take months of delay and cost a lot of money and so forth. must ask his engineers what if we just cut off that bottom sixinch ring and pull it off ? you think that would affect adding the rocket up there? engineers talk amongst themselves, number crunching and no, probably not and because it was his money he said go ahead and do that. seriously, that's the point. when i talk about the

so we took the saturn five and then to think we could do skylab that is cheaper. then over a couple of decades saturn five is a great big rocket every piece is thrown away except for the final capsule coming back to earth certainly we could do things cheaper with a reusable shuttle so what happened is the shuttle once it was operational the first flight 1981 the real i inflation-adjusted cost went up with the shuttle rather than down. by the way carter was nothing really big on the shuttle being built. although he did have a regulation that said government payloads have to go on government carriers other private companies that we could get into this. so that was unfortunate. and then coming up with the idea of a space station. that something prick after all they gives the shuttle a place to fly to other than in circles so we will build a space station it will only cost a million it will be up there by the early 19 nineties. isn't that great? it wasn't up there through the 2000's and probably cost $100 million. bush senior 1989 the 20th anniversary of the first moo

a saturn five is a great big rocket and every piece gets thrown away except for the final capsule. surely we can do things cheaper if we get a reusable shuttle. so what happened in fact is the shuttle once it was operational, first flight was 1981 through the decades the real inflation adjusted cost of putting a pound into space went up with the shuttle rather than down and then there's the question and jimmy carter was kind of like nothing really big other than letting the shuttle continue to be built, though he did have something about the regulation that said government payloads have to go on government carriers because there were a lot of private companies saying maybe we can get intothis and no, government payload has to go on the government carrier . so that was unfortunate. and reagan of course in the mid-80s came up with the idea , it had been floating around for a while but the idea of a space station. that's something . after all it gives the shuttle a place applied to other than in circles up there so will build the space station and it's only going to cost $8 million an

that's the saturn five.it's not to perspective but building something comparable to the saturn five that can launch to a place like mars. consider this for example. some years back- - there we go. okay. the rocket has the cones on the bottom where the fire comes out from the ignition, right? at one point he had a rocket he was going to test. and his engineers came and said, sir, there's a crack about six inches right at the bottom there. what do you want to do? had it been nasa, it would be, we can't launch the thing. we will have to have a major study to see what the implications are. run it through every agency and this and that and the other. lots of delay. cost a lot of money and so forth. so must asked, what is the cutoff that bottom ring and cut it off? do you think that would affect getting the rocket up there? the engineers talked amongst themselves and the number crunching. they said probably not. and because it was his money he said, go ahead and do that. that's the point. when i talk about the pri

the spaceships leaked the solar systems to unlock the mysteries of mars, jupiter, saturn and all kinds of astronauts in the moon. when you talk to the people who took america to the moon, when you read what they said at the time as to how they reflected on it decades later, these people tell you that in working on apollo, they did something extraordinary that was the greatest experience of their lives. there were 24 when they did it for 54. they always say to other things the task inspired and motivated them and brought out of them work they might not have been able to do in other circumstances. to me that is the spirit of america anspirit ofamerica and e american dream. as for me, that is the best part of the story. it is a heroic story but there are no superheroes. it's a story of ordinary people inspired by the challenge and urgency of the mission that kennedy laid down and who did extraordinary work. it is the story of those unsung heroes, jack kinsler, the guy that was three years out of the university of michigan with ten seconds to decide in a handwritten list that he had made.
