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

episode 166, crew won the astronauts. 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. After the successful return of Bob Bankin and

Doug Hurley on the SpaceX demo two mission, the first operational flight called

Crew 1 is launching soon to transport crew to and from the International Space Station.

On board are NASA astronauts Mike Hopkins, Victor Glover, Shannon Walker, and Japan Aerospace

Exploration Agency or Jackson astronaut Suichi. On this this episode we're going to hear from each

member of the crew to learn a little more about them and their mission. These

interviews were recorded just two weeks after the demo two launch as part of a series of other interviews.

You'll get to hear their perspective on what the Crew One mission is, stories of their

training, more about the careers, their family, and their thoughts about the importance of the mission that they're on.

So here we go.
