00:10I
00:32it is time to go so we're gonna hand it off to mission control and launch this
00:36rocket go new shepherd go ten nine eight seven six five four command to end this
00:47start two one
01:05and new shepherd has cleared the tower if you're following along from home you can note the speed
01:12and altitude graphics on your screen to the left and as the capsule and the booster separate you'll
01:18also be able to see those graphics split and follow their ascent and descent as well and right
01:26now the engine is at 100 power level a beautiful shot there of the ve3 begin throttle down for cue
01:37limiting and in response nominal and here we are approaching our cue bucket what is that
01:48for our viewers who don't know it's where there's maximum dynamic pressure oh we have the max
01:53aerodynamic stress um on the vehicle and so we're actually going to power down the engine as we go
01:58through that bucket excellent mach one vehicle supersonic engine maintaining full throttle
02:17chamber pressure is nominal
02:23we're about a minute and a half just passing 60,000 feet
02:41I love shots like this where you can just see the glow of the engine yeah the ve3 shining bright
02:47a
02:47great shot from our long-range camera over 100,000 feet now and we've also got a camera there on
02:55the
02:55booster looking back down on West Texas begin throttle down stand by Miko for our viewers who are just
03:09joining us and don't know Miko is our main engine cutoff Miko confirmed and there you have it
03:27stand by separation separation confirmed
03:34and as I mentioned if you look to the left hand side of your screen you'll notice that the telemetry
03:40has split so you'll be able to follow the capsule and the booster separately they reach apogee at right
03:45about the same time you'll also notice on your screen we've reached zero G I know there's so many students
04:13and teachers watching today we say hello to the
04:15hello to you and we are also excited to learn more about your experiments and the results of those experiments
04:20when
04:21the capsule has passed the Karman line
04:22and there you have it the capsule has passed the Karman line and
04:27yeah we can't wait to learn more once NS35 returns back to West Texas
04:46I always think it's so cool to have that split screen where you can see Texas from the booster
04:50and we've got that long-range camera that I know it's kind of hard to see but we do have
04:54the booster and the capsule there
04:56capsule apogee at 345,000 feet
05:02yeah soon on the image on the right we'll be able to see oh you can kind of see it
05:07you can see two little dots that is the capsule and the booster
05:13they've reached apogee they've crossed the Karman line and now they are making their way back down to West Texas
05:20and since we do have so many students watching today Claire do you want to kind of explain why
05:24four minutes thirty five the booster will land first
05:26yeah so the booster is going to land about two miles north of the launch pad
05:33and it is more aerodynamic so it is going to go through the air a lot faster than the capsule
05:40therefore it's going to land before the crew capsule lands
05:42that's right the crew capsule as you notice is more of a tear drop shape
05:46booster descent nominal through 300,000 feet
05:52and we are watching the booster and the capsule from our long-range cameras out in West Texas
05:58capsule body rates look good
06:03just over five minutes into NS 35
06:20booster descent nominal
06:28the booster coming in under 200,000 feet
06:35an autonomous landing is what you'll see again as Claire mentioned about two miles from our launch pad
06:40capsule has reached atmospheric pierce point
06:47confirm booster forward fin deploys
06:50so those forward fins are some of our aerodynamic surfaces that help us fly and return back to the landing
06:59pad
07:21here comes the booster
07:27just past six and a half
07:29minutes into flight. Great
07:31shot there.
07:34Booster drag brakes
07:35deployed.
07:39And now we're coming up to my
07:40favorite part is when we will
07:43actually relight the engine and the
07:44booster lands. Let's
07:47see it.
07:54Engine restart.
08:13Booster touchdown.
08:15Welcome home, New Shepard booster.
08:16Welcome home, New Shepard booster.
08:19Yes, beautiful touchdown
08:20and great shots from our camera
08:22operators.
08:57And now we're leaving.
08:58Come on.
08:59You're welcome.
08:59Now.
