Houston, we have a podcast. Welcome to the official podcast of the NASA Johnson Space Center,

episode 167, crew won the mission. I'm Gary Jordan and I'll be your host today.

On this podcast we bring in the experts, scientists,

engineers, astronauts, all to let you know

what's going on in the world of human spaceflight.

We are continuing our conversation on crew one,

the first crew rotation mission to the International Space Station on a U.S.

commercial spacecraft for NASA and for SpaceX.

Last week we got a chance to hear from each of the astronauts on board the SpaceX Crew Dragon.

NASA astronauts by Copkins, Victor Glover,

and Shannon Walker, and Japan Aerospace Exploration

Agency astronaut or Jackson astronaut, Suichi.

On this episode, we had a chance to chat with Anthony Varia, the lead flight director in Houston

for the crew one mission in the International Space Station flight control room.

Varia takes us through the story of getting us to this point

from the aftermath of the successful landing of demo two

through the certification process of Crew Dragon.

He then walks us through the Crew One Mission, painting a picture of how these

Crew Dragon flights will work for the foreseeable future, as well as what's different about this

mission compared to demo two.

So here we go. The details of the crew one mission with flight director

Anthony Varia. Enjoy. B minus five seconds,
