00:01Just the magnitude. Wow you're staring down at the earth. Holy cow. This is cool. We're in space. We're above
00:12the line.
00:18Look at that. Look at that amazing view. Wow.
00:21Wow. Holy cow. Six, five, four. Command engine start. Two, one.
00:57All right. New Shepard has cleared the tower. If you look on the bottom right hand side of your screen,
01:04you'll be able to follow along for the timing as NS-36 heads towards the corner line.
01:09Engine chamber pressure looks good.
01:1610,000 feet and climbing.
01:25Beginning throttle down for Q limiting.
01:28A little bit of a cloudier day out in West Texas today, but you can still see New Shepard.
01:32Engine response looks good.
01:43Max Q. Maximum dynamic pressure.
01:47On your screen there you can see the telemetry on the left hand side bar.
01:52Mach 1 vehicle is supersonic.
01:53You can follow the flight trajectory today. At the bottom you can watch the speed and the altitude climb.
01:59Engine back up to full throttle.
02:05That BE-3 all the way at full throttle.
02:09Chamber pressure looking good.
02:19Passing 70,000 feet and climbing.
02:35Now as you see on your screen, if it does go black and white we're using infrared imaging to see
02:40through the clouds, but right there that is a shot from the booster looking back down on West Texas.
02:44Max ascent G's.
02:49Beginning throttle down, standby Miko.
02:53Standby Miko.
02:55Standby Miko.
02:56We hear some happy astronauts.
03:03Miko confirmed.
03:05And Miko is confirmed.
03:07That is main engine cutoff.
03:09Standby Miko.
03:10Standby Miko.
03:12Standby Miko.
03:12Standby Miko.
03:12Standby Miko.
03:20Separation.
03:21Separation confirmed.
03:23There you have it.
03:24Separation is confirmed.
03:25Our astronauts are experiencing zero G's.
03:28As you can see now we have two bars for tracking our two vehicles.
03:33We've got the booster on the left and the capsule on the right.
03:35As they both continue their ascent to their apogee.
03:40Astronauts are experiencing zero G and doing all sorts of fun stuff up there taking photos looking out the window.
03:47Great long range camera shot there.
03:49Both the capsule and the booster.
03:51We found a break in the clouds.
03:533 minutes 15 seconds into flight.
03:58Man they are having a good time up there aren't they?
04:01Yeah.
04:04Just the magnitude.
04:06Wow you're staring down at the earth.
04:11Holy cow.
04:13This is cold.
04:14We're in space.
04:14We're above the line.
04:20Look at that.
04:21Look at that amazing view.
04:23Do you see the moon out there?
04:24Wow.
04:24We're flying.
04:26Wow.
04:28Do you see the moon out there?
04:30Look for the moon guys.
04:31The moon is incredible.
04:33Out my window.
04:41There you hear the sonic boom.
04:43You see the engine relight.
04:44Engine restart complete.
04:48Nice.
04:49Good shot.
04:50Landing legs deployed.
04:51Landing legs.
04:55Booster descent nominal.
05:01Booster touchdown.
05:03And we have booster touchdown.
05:06Great shot.
05:07Welcome home New Shepard booster.
05:09Starting booster auto-safing.
05:13always a sight to see never gets old always an incredible moment here landing that booster
05:19perfectly on our landing pad getting ready to autosafe it and uh shortly take it back to the
05:26barn for our viewers who might be new here what does autosafing mean oh it just means that uh
05:31we're making sure that the the vehicle is uh is ready for people to get close to it and make
05:38sure
05:38that it's ready to go back to the barn and complete its maintenance before the next flight that's true
05:42we do have a tradition here where we like to take a picture with the booster the team does after
05:47our uh flight we have reacquired a picture of the capsule there it is going through some clouds yeah
05:54that's got to make for a fun experience for astronauts drogues confirmed
06:01the drogues pull out the main parachutes
06:17capsule main parachute deployment confirmed and there you have it all three reefing looking
06:24beautiful against a cloudy west texas guy capsule landing zone is within expected range limits
06:31i love those drone shots
06:35now while the parachutes are essential in providing a gentle touchdown
06:39it is also we also have a retro thrust system on the base of the capsule which will make the
06:44final
06:44touchdown even smoother you'll expect to see a little proof of dust as we land that is all very
06:51very normal that's right it slows the capsule to about one mile per hour just before it lands in the
06:56west texas desert
07:02just about to reach a thousand feet
07:05look how green that west texas yeah it must have been raining there recently i was just about to say
07:11nine and a half minutes into flight
07:28wow that looks like a new cover photo to me gosh beautiful so pretty what a day to fly too
07:37nice job getting a little audio from our astronauts stand by touchdown
07:45approaching retro thrust stand by touchdown
07:57capsule touchdown and we have touchdown welcome back space nomad
08:03auto safing start welcome home in s36
08:06always incredible to see a great easy touchdown for our new shepherd crew capsule
08:11now our capsule recovery team is currently in route to meet the uh the astronauts in the capsule
08:18they're going to save the capsule and get ready to open that hatch
08:21now our new shepherd is now
08:27you
