The journey to mars: trains, time-travel, and the trek to mars | Chris Crumbly | TEDxNashville

Описание: Chris Crumbly takes us on an intergalactic journey with his talk drawn from, among other things, his experience managing spacecraft/payload integration and evolution for NASA's Space Launch System.

Chris Crumbly manages the Space Launch System (SLS) Program’s Spacecraft/Payload Integration and Evolution Office, located at Marshall. In this capacity, he is responsible for managing the development of SLS spacecraft and payload interfaces, as well as technical innovations that will increase the performance and decrease the cost of America’s next-generation heavy-lift rocket for human and scientific exploration beyond Earth’s orbit.
