Very excited about this is 5 00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 1: Hurry Tina MORGUSANYU Astrobiology Network with us this morning. 6 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:17,919 Speaker 2: Good morning, Good morning. 7 00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 1: So why do we need to do a drive by first? 8 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 1: Why can't we just land there and set up a 9 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:23,720 Speaker 1: base straight away. 10 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 2: Hurrytina, because it is safer and this mission has proven 11 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 2: the fact that you really have to check your equipment. 12 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 2: See the very first moon landing was a military operation 13 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 2: that was run as a race between the two countries 14 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 2: that at the time, the United States and the USSR 15 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 2: They were trying to prove each other who was winning 16 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 2: more things, and the Russians were winning, and then the 17 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 2: Americans thought, we have to go to the Moon, so 18 00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 2: they really ketted it as a military operation. Whereas now 19 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:03,639 Speaker 2: everything that is happening is taking into consideration the safety 20 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 2: of the crew, the well being of the people who 21 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 2: are on board, and it's phenomenal because they really care 22 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 2: about the people who are there.

So space travel, 34 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 2: it's a phenomenal thing that is helping us, has helped 35 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 2: us as human humans evolve beyond incredible conditions because spaceflight 36 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 2: is so hard, and because it is so hard, we 37 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 2: have to come up with so many ideas and things, 38 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 2: and those ideas and things they're mostly used here on Earth. 39 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 2: So that's why space space flight is so good. Not 40 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 2: necessarily because some people go to the Moon. You know, 41 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,919 Speaker 2: it's not going to be too many of them, and 42 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,959 Speaker 2: not everybody's going to be able to go there, though 43 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 2: I do hope we will. 44 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,079 Speaker 1: Yeah, would you hurrytan if I gave you a ticket 45 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 1: that said you could live on the moon, would you go? 46 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 2: I would time when Mary not live on the moon. 47 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 2: I love, I love where I am in Whirarapa Dark 48 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 2: Sky Reserve, but I bet the moon has an amazing, 49 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:42,920 Speaker 2: amazing night sky. 50 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 1: Hurytanare nice to have you on the program, Hurtina Morgusanya, 51 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 1: who is very excited for more from early edition with 52 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge.
