Speaker 1: Right news round up in Information Overload Hour. Here's our
Speaker 1: toll free telephone number. If you want to be a
Speaker 1: part of the program, it is eight hundred and ninety
Speaker 1: four one Sean if you want to join us. You know,
Speaker 1: in my life, during these moments when America launches rockets
Speaker 1: into space, we all remember one small step for man,
Speaker 1: one giant leap for mankind. Now you might remember the
Speaker 1: case of Barry Butch Wilmore, US Navy Captain, NASA astronaut.
Speaker 1: By the way, he himself has flown three space missions,
Speaker 1: and he spent four hundred and sixty four days in orbit.
Speaker 1: He's a Tennessee native, a test pilot, over eight thousand
Speaker 1: flight hours, six hundred and sixty three Harrier landings. And
Speaker 1: by the way, that in and of itself is a feat.
Speaker 1: And he piloted the Space Shuttle Atlantis, and commanded the
Speaker 1: International Space Station and recently led Boeing Starliner on its
Speaker 1: first crewed flo A mission plan for eight days, it
Speaker 1: stretched into nine months. And remember we're waiting, when are
Speaker 1: we going to rescue this guy? Now he has now
Speaker 1: come out with a memoir. It's called Stuck in Space,
Speaker 1: An Astronaut's Hope through the Unexpected. The book just got
Speaker 1: released and it's in bookstores everywhere. You can get it
Speaker 1: on Amazon dot com and put it on Hannity dot com.
Speaker 1: I haven't got my copy, and I'm dying to get
Speaker 1: a copy. But you know, he has been trained his
Speaker 1: entire life and career for these high risk missions and
Speaker 1: crisis leadership. But then you're kind of lost in space.
Speaker 1: And then it got so pathetic. We kept saying, Joe,
Speaker 1: when are you going to bring this this brave astronaut home?
Speaker 1: When are we going to rescue this guy? Well, Elon
Speaker 1: Musk came to the rescue, and he tells the entire story. Anyway,
Speaker 1: this is this is him himself and his own words
Speaker 1: talking about it. And here's what he said. What would
Speaker 1: you like to say to President Trump and Elon Musker?
Speaker 2: I respect you, I trust you.
Speaker 3: You're giving me no reason not to trust you either
Speaker 3: one of them. What they say, I can't say what
Speaker 3: they say. I haven't lived that. But I have no
Speaker 3: reason not to believe anything they say because they've earned
Speaker 3: my trust. And for that, I am grateful that our
Speaker 3: national leaders actually are coming in and taking part in
Speaker 3: our human space like program, which we see is hugely
Speaker 3: important global significance, and they take an active role, and
Speaker 3: based on the past and what we see now with
Speaker 3: them doing that is it's refreshing, not just refreshing, it's empowering,
Speaker 3: it's strengthening for our nation. I think it's a good
Speaker 3: thing for our nation when the national leaders, especially something
Speaker 3: that's high visibility, are involved in the process.
Speaker 2: And I'm grateful for that, all right.
Speaker 1: Butch Willmore joins us now veteran NASA astronaut and a
Speaker 1: captain and his memoir Stuck in Space and Astronauts Hope
Speaker 1: through the Unexpected now on bookstores around the country, Amazon
Speaker 1: dot com. We've put it up on Hannity dot com. Sir,
Speaker 1: God bless you, captain. We appreciate you being with us.
Speaker 1: Welcome aboard this show.
Speaker 4: God bless you, Sean. I still appreciate the opportunity to
Speaker 4: share some thoughts with you and that piece that you
Speaker 4: just just you just aired. Those comments that I made
Speaker 4: that was a year ago, and they're no different now.
Speaker 4: I still have the greatest respect for our leadership, for
Speaker 4: our president, for Elon Musk and what they continue to
Speaker 4: do going forward. And I'm grateful that to be a
Speaker 4: part of this nation, privileged to serve this nation in
Speaker 4: the way that the Lord has given me the opportunity
Speaker 4: to do so. So thank you, Thank you for the opportunity.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about getting stuck in space the way that
Speaker 1: you did, and there were many of us praying for you,
Speaker 1: many of us bewildered that the government was not moving
Speaker 1: expeditiously to get you home.
Speaker 2: That frustrated me. You know, walk us through what it
Speaker 2: was like for you.
Speaker 4: Well, I'll give you my perspective, Sean. I appreciate that
Speaker 4: we train, we prepare, you mentioned, and you know, decades
Speaker 4: of preparation for these high risk endeavors. And it's not
Speaker 4: just me, it's many And that is true. I mean
Speaker 4: I grew up professionally in the Navy, flew combat missions
Speaker 4: off aircraft carriers as you mentioned, and all of that
Speaker 4: preparation leading up and throughout all my career with NASA
Speaker 4: leading up to this event where I was commander of Starliner. Again,
Speaker 4: the mindset is a privilege to serve, and when these
Speaker 4: events happened, there was no frustration, there was no fretting
Speaker 4: on my part. I mean, you're serving your country whatever
Speaker 4: whatever transpires. I mean, many times, so many you know,
Speaker 4: thousands of people around this, around our nation have gotten
Speaker 4: been extended on deployment, myself included, and this was just
Speaker 4: that and you go with it, you flow with it,
Speaker 4: and you do the best with your what you've been
Speaker 4: given to take charge and carry out the planet of
Speaker 4: the day, as we say, in the days and operation
Speaker 4: was at the top as you would expect. There was
Speaker 4: nothing on the space station that we Sunday Night could
Speaker 4: not do, could not perform, including spacewalks, which we did.
Speaker 4: We were prepared to do all of that. Didn't plan
Speaker 4: to do any of it because we were a short mission,
Speaker 4: but we were prepared to do at all and that's
Speaker 4: just the way it played out. So again the mindset
Speaker 4: from our standpoint is, yes, this isn't optable, this isn't
Speaker 4: desired by many, but it's where we are and we're
Speaker 4: going to take advantage of the training, we have, the
Speaker 4: opportunity we have to continue to serve our country in
Speaker 4: this fashion. And that is really what drove us.
Speaker 1: Well, this was supposed to be a relatively short mission
Speaker 1: that you were going on. How many days originally was
Speaker 1: it supposed to be?
Speaker 4: Well, you know, we've heard a has been a number
Speaker 4: that was put out there early even before we launched,
Speaker 4: but it was two weeks ish or less. There were
Speaker 4: several tests obviously we were doing before we got the
Speaker 4: space station. There were some attached tests, the thermal tests
Speaker 4: that we were going to be doing with in spacecraft
Speaker 4: while we were doctor space station, and then many tests
Speaker 4: went we came back before at deorbit burn and of
Speaker 4: course entering into the atmosphere and then landing, so all
Speaker 4: of it was a test mission. And roughly there wasn't
Speaker 4: a defined eight days, but that was one number that
Speaker 4: was put out there, but it was eight that's.
Speaker 1: A fourteen days, okay, So you go up there with
Speaker 1: the expectations you're going to be you're going to be
Speaker 1: gone eight to fourteen days and it it then what
Speaker 1: were you up in space? If I recall, was two
Speaker 1: hundred and eighty six days that you were stuck in space?
Speaker 1: I don't know if you remember the show Lost in
Speaker 1: Space when you were a kid, watching any of those reruns,
Speaker 1: but it was a show caused Paul Lost in Space
Speaker 1: and kind of that's your situation.
Speaker 2: At that point.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I watched it often. Will Rogers and his family
Speaker 4: absolutely out of a big.
Speaker 5: Fan, all right.
Speaker 1: So now, when did you first realize of we're not
Speaker 1: going to get home on time? And what will you
Speaker 1: know walk us through mentally, emotionally. For example, when you're training,
Speaker 1: I assume they prepare you that there might be a
Speaker 1: situation where you may not get home on the date
Speaker 1: you think you're going to come home. So I would
Speaker 1: expect you have I anticipate that you have some expectation
Speaker 1: of that going in right.
Speaker 4: Well, I don't think it's active training, say hey, things
Speaker 4: could happen, you'll be extended. We don't look at it
Speaker 4: that way, but I'll tell you from my perspectives. I've
Speaker 4: been asked several times, how did you feel when you
Speaker 4: found out you were going to be extended? Well, Sean,
Speaker 4: I mean when we started losing thrusters out in front
Speaker 4: of the space station and we wound up losing the
Speaker 4: ability to fully control the spacecraft. We lost six degree
Speaker 4: of freedom control and I'm on the controls, I'm manual control.
Speaker 4: At this point, I had three thoughts. My first thought
Speaker 4: was we have to dock. Our options are minimal. That's
Speaker 4: my second thought. We don't have many options if we
Speaker 4: don't dock. I mean, I'm controlling spacecraft. It is very challenging.
Speaker 4: Compared to the day prior. To the day prior, it
Speaker 4: was absolutely pristine. It was perfection. I mean I could
Speaker 4: have pointed at a gnat and kept it on there.
Speaker 4: I mean, that's how precise it was. That is not
Speaker 4: the case when I was flying it, obviously, when we
Speaker 4: were losing these thrusters, and so my thought, we have
Speaker 4: to dock. If we don't dock, I'm not sure I
Speaker 4: can control this spacecraft sufficiently to do a deorbit burn
Speaker 4: and make it back to Earth because of how the
Speaker 4: control was. And again, at the moment you got to
Speaker 4: realize we did not know why we were losing the thrusters.
Speaker 4: We did not know if we could get them back.
Speaker 4: So this is real time thoughts. And my third thought
Speaker 4: was if we do get successfully docked, I don't see
Speaker 4: us coming back on this spacecraft. I mean this is
Speaker 4: even before we dock. The realization of how serious the
Speaker 4: situation was, and to be able to bound the problem,
Speaker 4: understand it completely, and get back inside the spacecraft at
Speaker 4: some point and come back in it. I knew those
Speaker 4: chances were slim because you can't go out on a
Speaker 4: spacewalk and inspect the thrusters. They're not built that way.
Speaker 4: You can't do that, and I know that, and we're
Speaker 4: dropping these thrusters, so to determine why they're failing, it'll
Speaker 4: be an assessment of data at real time. And there's
Speaker 4: going to be have to be some type of tests
Speaker 4: with some thrusters somewhere. We can't test them on the
Speaker 4: spacecraft that we're on, you know, on Earth. So anyway,
Speaker 4: the three things I thought, we have to dock. If
Speaker 4: we don't dock, our options are are pretty slim. And
Speaker 4: the third thing, of course, if we do DOC, I
Speaker 4: don't see this coming back on this spacecraft. So I
Speaker 4: knew it early.
Speaker 1: Okay, the first thought that I had. And I guess
Speaker 1: maybe this goes to my mindset, and Linda makes fun
Speaker 1: of me because whenever I'm on the road, the only
Speaker 1: thing I really care about is what Linda whenever we're traveling,
Speaker 1: get the most.
Speaker 6: Food and the most unhealthy food.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because it's the only time I cheat on my
Speaker 1: diet is when I'm on the road. And so I'm like,
Speaker 1: if I'm going to the West Coast, it's in an
Speaker 1: out burger. If I'm going to Salt Lake City, it's
Speaker 1: Crown Burger. If I'm going to Chicago, it's hot dogs.
Speaker 1: Wherever I'm going, it's something. But I started thinking about, Okay,
Speaker 1: now you know you're not going to be able to
Speaker 1: come back the way you thought you were going to
Speaker 1: come back. You know, you now your stay is going
Speaker 1: to be extended. You know the only way you're going
Speaker 1: to get back is if they come and rescue you.
Speaker 5: My thought.
Speaker 1: I remember thinking at the time, I hope to God
Speaker 1: they have enough food there, and obviously they did. And
Speaker 1: then I think you got a delivery.
Speaker 4: That we did. And I can tell you also after.
Speaker 2: We got it, was it like Uber eats or install
Speaker 2: I'm kidding, but I mean.
Speaker 4: No, it's a little better than that. Actually. But after
Speaker 4: we got doctor, we did all our hugs and welcome
Speaker 4: a board and our comments and all. The first thing
Speaker 4: I did was I we had the correct KU band
Speaker 4: coverage with the sat light coverage. And I called the
Speaker 4: flight director, Vincent Lecourt, and I said, Vincent, you know,
Speaker 4: we trained for emergency departure of the station for any
Speaker 4: number of bridge and depressurization, fire, ammonia. There's many many
Speaker 4: reasons why you would have to leave us lead the station.
Speaker 4: We've never had to, but we trained for that. I
Speaker 4: said that, in that scenario and that contingency, what is
Speaker 4: our plan? I mean, we have a six spacecraft. What
Speaker 4: do we do? I mean, the soils is too small,
Speaker 4: we can't fit in it. The Dragon is large enough,
Speaker 4: but we have no seats and our spacecraft is sick.
Speaker 4: And he said, well, and what I already knew that
Speaker 4: right now is your only option. And for the first
Speaker 4: two months that was our that was our option until
Speaker 4: we actually we built seats into the deck of the
Speaker 4: Dragon spacecraft for us to you know, out of styrofoam
Speaker 4: or our pham and other areas. The ground team did
Speaker 4: great jobs, got a great job sending up the information.
Speaker 4: And Mike Barrett, one of the guys on board, our
Speaker 4: medical doctor that was on board, he'd put a lot
Speaker 4: of effort into it. And anyway, we built seats. So
Speaker 4: for two months we had our emergency turn spacecraft was
Speaker 4: Starliner because that's really our only option.
Speaker 1: Wow, and you had enough food and then how did
Speaker 1: you get the delivery of more food?
Speaker 4: Well, that's kind of standard, this cargo spacecraft that come
Speaker 4: and go and they're always changing what the load out.
Speaker 4: Almost cargo spacecraft are there's the sickness that comes up.
Speaker 4: There's the Russian progress as also the space extion Dragon
Speaker 4: has a cargo version, so they changed those out all
Speaker 4: the time, so they they loaded a little bit more food,
Speaker 4: a little bit more of the stuff and other accoutomers.
Speaker 4: Thinks that we needed.
Speaker 1: All right, quick break, Welcome back, more with veteran NASA
Speaker 1: astronaut Captain Barry.
Speaker 2: Butch Wilmore is with us. As new book is out.
Speaker 1: It's called Stuck in Space and Astronaut's Hope through the Unexpected.
Speaker 1: It's on Amazon dot Comhannity dot com, bookstores all around
Speaker 1: the country. More with him on the other side than
Speaker 1: your calls coming up eight hundred and nine or one sean.
Speaker 1: If you want to be a part of the program
Speaker 1: as we continue.
Speaker 7: You know here at the Shawn Hannity Show, we want
Speaker 7: to thriving economy, border security, and protection of our children.
Speaker 8: Now what else can we come up with?
Speaker 9: Pits off the left.
Speaker 7: Keep it lots right here for all the latest news
Speaker 7: and information.
Speaker 1: All right, we continue now Veteran NASA astronauts Stuck in Space.
Speaker 1: I can't believe it. Two hundred and eighty six days.
Speaker 1: But Captain Barry Butch Wilmore, his new memoir is Out
Speaker 1: Stuck in Space and Astronauts Hope through the Unexpected Anity
Speaker 1: dot com, Amazon dot com bookstores all around the country.
Speaker 1: At any point during this long process, are you thinking,
Speaker 1: uh uh, I'm not getting home for a year?
Speaker 4: That was actually the most likely scenario once we once
Speaker 4: we got all the information, when the various spacecraft were
Speaker 4: scheduled to come and go, the most likely scenario had
Speaker 4: us returning in June, which would have been a year.
Speaker 4: President Trump did get involved, I know that for a fact,
Speaker 4: And there was some processing on some spacecraft Dragon spacecraft
Speaker 4: on the ground that was altered, and they made some
Speaker 4: changes and they got one spacecraft ready before another, and
Speaker 4: they swapped them and that's the ones that came up
Speaker 4: to relieve us, which actually got us home in March
Speaker 4: instead of June. So we actually did get well.
Speaker 1: Elon Musk played a big role in that, and h
Speaker 1: I'm sure that made you happy. And it's incredible what
Speaker 1: he's been able to do, isn't it.
Speaker 4: Oh, there's no question, absolutely, you know, grateful to him.
Speaker 4: And we wouldn't even have this option of the SpaceX
Speaker 4: Dragon for wash for his his vision, you know, decades
Speaker 4: ago when they started SpaceX, and the progress that they've
Speaker 4: made over this time is just absolutely incredible. And the
Speaker 4: and the launch rate that they have even now with
Speaker 4: the various other missions they're doing, it's just it's mind blowing.
Speaker 4: Something that I don't think anyone ever deemed would have
Speaker 4: been possible just just simply a few decades ago. It's inspiring.
Speaker 4: It truly is well.
Speaker 2: I got to tell you, it's a great story.
Speaker 1: I don't want to give the entire thing away because
Speaker 1: you put it all now in a book, and it's
Speaker 1: a memoir. It's called Stuck in Space and Astronauts Hope
Speaker 1: through the Unexpected. It's in bookstores around the country. We
Speaker 1: put it up on Hannity dot com. It's on Amazon
Speaker 1: dot com. You are truly an American hero. You personify
Speaker 1: what it means to be courageous. We appreciate you, and
Speaker 1: God speak to you and your family and thank you
Speaker 1: for all of your service to your country. Captain Barry
Speaker 1: push Wilmore. We appreciate you being with us, sir, Thank.
Speaker 4: You, sir, and Shawn. We appreciate what you do for
Speaker 4: our nation as well. Thank you so much, sir.
Speaker 1: God bless you. Glad you're home safe.
Speaker 9: Breaking news straight from the source.
Speaker 2: This is the Sean Hannity Show.
Speaker 5: Hey, it's Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity. Let's take
Speaker 5: some calls. One eight hundred four to one Sean is
Speaker 5: the number. One, eight hundred nine to four to one Sean.
Speaker 5: Let's go to Dalton, calling from daytona Beach, Dalton. How
Speaker 5: you doing.
Speaker 6: I'm doing well.
Speaker 10: How are you doing?
Speaker 5: I'm good? Well, jump in anytime you want.
Speaker 11: Yeah, I'm calling in From a few hours ago. You
Speaker 11: had a gentleman on that was writing a book and
Speaker 11: you have a few sections about being pro with the
Speaker 11: Iran war, saying everything we're doing there is right thing.
Speaker 11: We're winning the war.
Speaker 10: I just wanted to ask, how can you say.
Speaker 11: We're doing the right thing, We're doing good, we're winning.
Speaker 10: When day one we bombed.
Speaker 11: School, we killed one hundred and sixty eight children, and
Speaker 11: our ally on top of that Israel our number one ally.
Speaker 11: That's what everyone says. They have a track record of
Speaker 11: killing kids. They have a track record.
Speaker 5: They don't have that. Listen, we've hit fifteen thousand targets,
Speaker 5: fifteen thousand. Once in a while in war, you'll accidentally
Speaker 5: get some civilian casualties. This has got to be an
Speaker 5: all time record for fewest civilillion casualties ever. And that
Speaker 5: one hitting a school, we don't even know that for sure.
Speaker 5: That's reported by Iran. We don't even know if that's true.
Speaker 5: And if it is, the school was put next to
Speaker 5: a military installation, that's why that would have happened, But
Speaker 5: we have no confirmation that ever actually happened. And there
Speaker 5: are fifteen thousand bombing attacks. If there had been any
Speaker 5: civilians hit, you would have been hearing about it instantly.
Speaker 5: So that's a pretty good track record, isn't it.
Speaker 10: No, how can you say it's okay at all?
Speaker 11: For children's.
Speaker 5: Listen? I can tell you don't want to change. You
Speaker 5: don't want to hear anything, you don't want to know anything.
Speaker 5: You Now, why is it you're so against this war?
Speaker 5: Forget the children? Why are you so against this war?
Speaker 11: Okay, forget the children?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 11: Yeah, we're saying our number one ally in this it
Speaker 11: is real.
Speaker 5: Right. Yeah, I know you hate Israel. You had a
Speaker 5: little anti Semitism running through the veins there, But forget that.
Speaker 5: I think you are. But forget that. Let's get to
Speaker 5: why would if you had the worst, most evil terrorist
Speaker 5: organization on earth? Why wouldn't you want to wipe them out?
Speaker 11: How are you calling I ran the worst set.
Speaker 10: I'm not saying I ran right.
Speaker 5: Don't get me wrong.
Speaker 10: I'm not saying they're.
Speaker 11: On the right and that they have been doing everything right.
Speaker 9: They don't deserve this at all.
Speaker 11: I am saying the reason we are there with our
Speaker 11: current ally is wrong.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but again, why wouldn't you want to take out
Speaker 5: the most awful terrorists sponsoring evil government on earth?
Speaker 11: Because we're doing the same thing. We have a track
Speaker 11: record of right with anything that's come out of the
Speaker 11: CIA or anything that's come out in the Middle East,
Speaker 11: it has a track record of CIA was there, CIA
Speaker 11: was giving money. Let's look at things like the Contra affair.
Speaker 5: But just explain, you can't argue with these guys. You
Speaker 5: got to play along with it. Hey, that mont Donnie
Speaker 5: is pretty great. That mayor of New York good, good thing.
Speaker 11: We got a social I'm not down for most politicians,
Speaker 11: believe it or not.
Speaker 5: Really, Now, what do you do in real life? What
Speaker 5: do you do for a living real life?
Speaker 11: Right now? I am going to the college. I was
Speaker 11: in the Marine Corps for fives.
Speaker 5: There you go. It explains you got one of these
Speaker 5: crazy ecologists, you got those crazy communist professors teaching.
Speaker 11: You no no again. I was in the Marine Corps
Speaker 11: for five and a half years.
Speaker 5: Uh huh.
Speaker 11: I've maintained a standpoint throughout the entire enlistments. Now I'm
Speaker 11: going to college.
Speaker 5: And what do you want to be when you What
Speaker 5: do you want to be when you grow up? What
Speaker 5: do you want to be? What do you want to be?
Speaker 5: What do you want to do for a living?
Speaker 11: Right now, I'm studying safety, but I'm about to switch
Speaker 11: in I'm going to go into nursing.
Speaker 5: All right, Well, that's good, that's good. That's a good profession.
Speaker 5: And nurses do wonderful work. And Dalton, thanks for checking in.
Speaker 5: That's a good thing that he wants to be a nurse.
Speaker 5: I don't know if the patient who is in pain
Speaker 5: and agony wants to hear a whole lecture on why
Speaker 5: we're evil in it. As long as you're trying to
Speaker 5: do some good. Let's go to Judy in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Judy,
Speaker 5: how you doing?
Speaker 10: Hey, Mark, I'm doing real good and fantastic, as as usual.
Speaker 10: Whenever you're talking I like to listen.
Speaker 5: Thanks, And what'd you want to say, Judy? Yeah?
Speaker 10: Well, first of all, if you don't mind, I would
Speaker 10: like to say, could you have callers talk to callers
Speaker 10: because I'd like to talk to the guy who was
Speaker 10: just on. I don't think you were answered your question right?
Speaker 8: You know, Noah, I can't.
Speaker 5: Waste any time. You're not going to change his mind
Speaker 5: about anything. Whatever he wants to think.
Speaker 10: Of him get something. Yeah, all right, well listen, I
Speaker 10: just want to share with you my opinion that these
Speaker 10: billionaires you know, Sorows and the Stingham and the other
Speaker 10: guy can't even pronounce his name, they're paying people to
Speaker 10: protest against America and they're wrong. They're treason us. We
Speaker 10: need to put them in jail. Why can't we do
Speaker 10: something legally to stop people from doing these trees in.
Speaker 5: This No, that's tough to do. First of all, the
Speaker 5: biggest new financier of this crazy stuff is Neville Roy Singman,
Speaker 5: and he's in Singapore. You can't touch him because he's overseas.
Speaker 5: Nothing you can do to me. He's working with the
Speaker 5: Chinese Communist government. He's protected by them. You really can't
Speaker 5: go after him. George Sorows is ninety eight years old.
Speaker 5: I can't see, you can't hear the son Alex Soros
Speaker 5: has taken over the business.
Speaker 10: He's just awful there, twice as bad as sorrows. Yeah,
Speaker 10: there have been.
Speaker 5: People that said you could call him in a congressional
Speaker 5: hearing or something, put him under oath. You know these
Speaker 5: soros Is. They financed twenty six of the most awful
Speaker 5: district attorneys around America, awful ones that will let all
Speaker 5: the criminals loose. You could bring him under oath and say, explain, why,
Speaker 5: what interest did you have in Saint Louis that you
Speaker 5: had finance at district attorney's race? What interest did you
Speaker 5: have in Portland to finance that district attorney's race? You
Speaker 5: could ask him all these questions under oath. I don't know.
Speaker 5: As evil as he is and as horrible as the
Speaker 5: stuff he finances his I don't know if there's any
Speaker 5: law under which you could put him in jail. That's
Speaker 5: the problem.
Speaker 10: It's a good idea, But all the people who are
Speaker 10: on our side and the Trump's cab Trump, we love
Speaker 10: my husband and I love Trump. Everything was good, But
Speaker 10: why isn't anyone thought to do any of this yet.
Speaker 10: That's just yeah, I can't understand it at all.
Speaker 5: I know. Well, here's the other problem. If you try
Speaker 5: to go out after Soros, you're gonna have to get
Speaker 5: him before committee. Now half the committee are Democrats, and
Speaker 5: Soros makes massive contributions to their campaigns and to their packs,
Speaker 5: so they're not going to do anything. It's you, really,
Speaker 5: you really can buy off a lot of this government,
Speaker 5: and they've been bought off. It's a it's a good point,
Speaker 5: Judy though. Thanks for calling. Let's go to uh Charlton
Speaker 5: in Tennessee. Charlton, how you doing.
Speaker 4: How's it going?
Speaker 9: Mark?
Speaker 5: Good?
Speaker 9: Well, I'm not going to go off on Dalton, although
Speaker 9: I could. The main reason I called was I am
Speaker 9: thankful for the information we got on the current NASA program. Yeah,
Speaker 9: because I'm what I call it gorby old retired GORB
Speaker 9: g RBB grumpy old retired baby boomer. And I'm old
Speaker 9: enough to remember Alan Shepherd's first flight and John Glynn.
Speaker 5: Alan Shephard was the first astronaut right in the Mercury program.
Speaker 5: He was up there for what fifteen minutes? And that
Speaker 5: was about it. It was pretty amazing. Now it doesn't
Speaker 5: sound like much, but nobody had been up there before,
Speaker 5: so he was really taking a risk.
Speaker 9: I move that and everything that came after, and rest
Speaker 9: in peace. The three astronauts that died with the fire
Speaker 9: on Apollo four.
Speaker 5: Yeah, now I know John Glenn was the first to
Speaker 5: orbit the Earth. But who was in between Shepherd and
Speaker 5: John Glenn.
Speaker 9: At the moment, I honestly don't remember.
Speaker 5: I don't remember either, but there were I think it
Speaker 5: was seven Mercury astronauts. Then the Gemini program where two
Speaker 5: men would go up to a capsule, and then Apollo and hey,
Speaker 5: can you you studied this NASA stuff? If you if
Speaker 5: you look at like an iPhone or something, you come
Speaker 5: back twenty years later, it looks all different. It looks
Speaker 5: so much more advanced. If you look at a car
Speaker 5: in nineteen sixty nine, then you look at one today, Boy,
Speaker 5: it looks so much more advanced.
Speaker 9: How come go into the space program?
Speaker 5: Well? How come the rocket? The g I? Joe, He's
Speaker 5: on another subject, Garrett, He's talking about something else. But
Speaker 5: how come a rocket today looks exactly like the rocket
Speaker 5: of fifty years ago and the capsule looks exactly the same.
Speaker 5: It's unbelievable. You can look at a nineteen sixty nine
Speaker 5: Ford and then go to today. The car looks entirely different,
Speaker 5: But the rocket's the same exact rocket. The capsule is
Speaker 5: the same exact capsule. The rocket takes off the same way.
Speaker 5: You see all that smoke and all that stuff that
Speaker 5: comes out in youre feel a ground shake, and you'd
Speaker 5: think there'd be some other way, like some tesla kind
Speaker 5: of a capsule that just floats right up. You don't
Speaker 5: need all that big thrusting rocket power. So I don't know, Linda,
Speaker 5: would you like to be in a capsule? I can't
Speaker 5: even imagine anybody.
Speaker 2: No, I have claustrophobia me too.
Speaker 5: I can't even imagine that.
Speaker 2: And you can barely get in the elevator.
Speaker 5: They're going to go to the moon. They tell you
Speaker 5: they got the digital, this, everything, the highest tech, and
Speaker 5: then that we find out, yes, say, the toilet wasn't working.
Speaker 5: What I didn't hear that? Yeah, apparently the fan and
Speaker 5: the toilet broke. And these astronauts have trained for everything
Speaker 5: on Earth except how to fix this toilet. So they're
Speaker 5: sending them instructions stop it, yeah, and what to do?
Speaker 6: Are you for real?
Speaker 5: I totally miss this no Google.
Speaker 6: Oh my god.
Speaker 5: I imagine if you're three guys in a little tight capsule,
Speaker 5: you need that toilet fan fixed, trying to fix that.
Speaker 5: And then now this mission, they'll just go up there,
Speaker 5: orbit around, come back. They'll do that a few more
Speaker 5: times until they're ready to land. Then I guess the
Speaker 5: plan is to set up a base there, a permanent base.
Speaker 5: And what do we need a permanent base there? And
Speaker 5: what does that mean? A permanent base. We're gonna have
Speaker 5: a Chipotle there, Starbucks, people are gonna live, There's going
Speaker 5: to be a Marriott there. I don't know who's gonna
Speaker 5: want to spend any time there. And then I guess
Speaker 5: the other thinking is from there we'll launch a Mars mission.
Speaker 5: It will be faster to go from there. But once
Speaker 5: you've gone, I don't know who wants to go to Mars.
Speaker 5: You're going to move. Then you go to Mars, we're
Speaker 5: just walking around. Look at it and empty planets with
Speaker 5: nothing on them. It doesn't sound like a lot of fun.
Speaker 2: But I bet you get some good pictures.
Speaker 5: You know. Okay, it costs like six billion to get
Speaker 5: you there just for this picture for your Instagram. It's
Speaker 5: really not worth it. Speaking of which, follow me on Instagram.
Speaker 5: I have better pictures. Mark Simone NYC.
Speaker 7: You're the guy who's going to complain about space because
Speaker 7: there's the WiFi probably isn't good enough.
Speaker 5: Yeah, the WiFi is not good enough. The streamings up
Speaker 5: there isn't good enough.
Speaker 2: Couldn't get any closer to the towers, that's for sure.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well that's true.
Speaker 6: They're saying. Though, did you hear when Trump went down
Speaker 6: to Miami to speak at the Florida Initiative, the conference
Speaker 6: the FII that we're going to have flying cars in
Speaker 6: like another year.
Speaker 5: I go back to nineteen sixty three and watch the
Speaker 5: Jetsons with the flying cars for real.
Speaker 6: Listen, I'm not about it.
Speaker 2: They're supposed to be.
Speaker 6: They're saying, MSRP is going to be about four hundred
Speaker 6: thousand dollars.
Speaker 5: Yeah, this is all we need in Florida. Senior citizens,
Speaker 5: flying cars.
Speaker 2: The villages will go first.
Speaker 5: It's not gonna work, No, senior citizens. They're gonna elliy,
Speaker 5: it's so high. It's too high. Of anyway, we'll take
Speaker 5: some more calls next. Mark Simone NYC at Instagram, Twitter,
Speaker 5: all that stuff, and don't forget check out Hannity dot Com.
Speaker 5: All kinds of great stories up there. Back in a
Speaker 5: moment on the Sean Hannity Show, Sean Hannity talks to
Speaker 5: the people involved in the top stories of the day.
Speaker 5: Every day Sean Hannity is on.
Speaker 1: Is all.
Speaker 5: Hey, it's Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity. We found
Speaker 5: out who the second astronaut, Alan Shepard was the first astronaut,
Speaker 5: second astronaut into space, Gus Grissom. This was a fascinating
Speaker 5: guy in space history. Mercury program was first the single
Speaker 5: astronaut capsule, Gus Grissom. Then they came the Gemini program,
Speaker 5: two men capsule. Gus Grissom was in that, and in
Speaker 5: that he became the first astronaut to walk in space.
Speaker 5: And then there was the Apollo program three man. Gus
Speaker 5: Grissom flew in that. I think he's the only one
Speaker 5: to fly in all three. But in the Apollo program,
Speaker 5: remember that was the capsule that blew up and killed
Speaker 5: Gus Grissom. It was an amazing story and a great
Speaker 5: tragedy in the name of it. We should remember he's
Speaker 5: quite an American hero. Let's take some calls. Let's go
Speaker 5: to Patrick Kansas City, Patrick, how you doing? I'm doing good.

Speaker 5: don't rush. So I'd like to, well, not this much time,
Speaker 5: speed up a little.

Speaker 5: if you want.
Speaker 2: Patrick, Okay, yes, yeah, all right, there we go.
Speaker 5: There you go.
Speaker 10: So I wanted to give an answer.
Speaker 8: Before I brought my point up to.
Speaker 4: The guy earlier that said that the US bombed a
Speaker 4: school over in Iran.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we don't even know if that's true.
Speaker 4: I have a on good authority.
Speaker 8: I can't say the source.
Speaker 5: Well, we know you're great sources that you have there
Speaker 5: in Kansas City. Don't you don't have to reveal anything?
Speaker 9: Well, yeah, I ran.
Speaker 5: Bombed the school. Well, we don't even know if the
Speaker 5: school was bombed, but it's official now. It's coming down
Speaker 5: from Patrick and Kansas City. That's it. Patrick. I don't
Speaker 5: know what you're on. But did you bring it up
Speaker 5: for everybody? That's all right, Well you sound like actually
Speaker 5: that is coming from military sources. Well, there you go,
Speaker 5: there you go. It's all right, Patrick, thanks for slowing
Speaker 5: us up here anyway, take care, Thanks for calling, and
Speaker 5: we have time for one more. All right, one more call.
Speaker 5: Let's go to Morgan in Oklahoma. Morgan, how you doing.
Speaker 8: I'm doing good.
Speaker 10: Good to talk with you.
Speaker 8: I was gonna I heard you asking the questions about
Speaker 8: the shot of the pond. That's physics. It's about having
Speaker 8: to build to come up. And the main the main
Speaker 8: two reasons that would be moving up for the Moon
Speaker 8: is one that's going to be the helium three because
Speaker 8: of the amount of energy that comes from it. Oh, okay,
Speaker 8: readily available, readily available from the sun. For you know
Speaker 8: the sun has been.
Speaker 5: Well, how do we get it? How do we get
Speaker 5: it back here? How do we get it transported back?
Speaker 8: Oh? You bring it, bring it back the same way
Speaker 8: that you send the rocket up. You just you load
Speaker 8: up fuel. It becomes a logistics hub, right, because what
Speaker 8: people don't realize is our technology because of what's hample
Speaker 8: SPACEGG like, we're just at the cusp of a whole
Speaker 8: resource boom that's going to happen.
Speaker 5: Right, that's a very good answer. See I never would
Speaker 5: have known that. Very good Morgan. Thanks for calling. I mean,
