Speaker 1: Let's watch as they prepare to cross the bridge.
Speaker 1: What a moment, Jeff Bezos, Mark Bezos, [00:00:30] Wally funk, and Oliver Damon ring the ceremonial bell, making some noise on their way to get into the crew capsule. Kevin, the crew member seven that you see they're in the black suit. He is now going to help them ingress get into the capsule, get situated in their seats and, uh, of course help them get buckled into their harnesses and go through any final safety checks [00:01:00] before closing the hatch. I mean, we should note though, Gary and I, again, I have both been through the, the, uh, after not training experience. It's a five point harness by the, by the time you're done with training, you can do that upside down backwards with your eyes closed, uh, inside and out. I mean, you, you definitely understand how, uh, how that works and you're gonna need to, because when we come back, you wanna get back into your seat from zero G. That's very important. Let's watch here as they cross the gantry, [00:01:30] taking some final photos, we've got our photographer there, Felix, Koons A brilliant photographer. Who's taken those, uh, those beautiful shots of the crew that we saw earlier. And there they go into the crew capsule. Gary, do you wanna talk about, uh, the, uh, the ho in the piping that you see going into the hatch?
Speaker 2: So that is just a cabin environmental control system while it's on the pad, uh, before we seal the hatch, we wanna make sure the air [00:02:00] is fresh and, and air conditioned in there. Um, that that hose will be removed obviously during hatch closure. And so what they're doing now is just one by one and entering a cabin and getting, getting fastened. And, uh, then they will go through a series of contracts with Capcom.
Speaker 1: Fantastic. There's Wally funk in seat, number three, there Oliver getting situated in seat. Number one. I'm, [00:02:30] I'm starting to a little bit, I mean, not only again, have we practiced this and not only on the last flight, did we have a full astronaut reversal like this, but it's different. We've done again, 15 consecutive missions to get to this point, but it's so much different when you put people on board, but again, so much testing, so much design, so much thought and incredibly well trained blue origin team. Uh, [00:03:00] that's supporting these, these astronauts, our first crew on new shepherd. Just wonderful. We, we are ready for today.
