Assault of the government of the United States. Democrats accused barr of violating protestors civil rights and sending Law Enforcement to portland and other u. S. Cities as a prop to bolster the president s reelection prospects. Lets bring wall street journal columnist and deputy Editorial Page Editor dan henninger, columnist kim strassel and editorial page writer gillian. Kim, did democrats achieve what they were calling on attorney general . Kimberley they claimed that they we wanted to hear from the attorney general but they didnt let him speak. The real idea behind this is they wanted to accuse him and the Trump Administration of essentially sending fireworks, ieds its quite something else. I think this is a situation that democrats have allowed to get out of control. Paul a lot of federal officers were injured, some of them bad, i mean, including shooting including shooting saw the statistics. You have federal officers and have eye injuries and may never recover. Federal officers who have been in the head with fireworks. Its truly gotten pretty rough there and any claim that this is peaceful protests, i just dont that thats set at this point. Paul a deal between department of Homeland Security and the governor of of oregon in which the Oregon State Police are going to the governor says be responsible and protect federal property and in return dhs will recede and leave if, in fact, that property is protected. This is sensible compromise . Daniel i guess so. I think its slightly irrelevant to the post to the protestors quite frankly, paul, we have sort of have to focus on whats going on here. Their attacks have been on law officers whether federal officers or local police and i think thats what the turn the protests have taken since may 25th, when that started it was about ending systematic racism. Its now clear that most to have protests whether in portland, other cities like new york are about eliminating the police function, defunding the police, restraining or restricting them and i dont think these protests are going to stop until they reach that goal and you have authorities, governmental authorities in portland and in oregon and in new york city more or less going along that is is one of the problems here that we need voices of people who hold prominent positions on both sides of the aisle. We are hearing it from republicans and you need it from the democrats that are in congress, you need it from the democrats that run the cities to say, look, this needs to stop and we have a red line, we will allow Peaceful Demonstrations but anything that moves towards violence is not going to be tolerated, but you saw joe biden do the same thing, you know, when asked about statutes, pulling down monuments. He said, well, you know, some of them maybe, some of them maybe not. The goal here is to not in any way condemn whats going on by what is in essence a progressive portion of the democratic party. Paul all right, when we come back the race for Coronavirus Vaccine with two of the most promising candidates entering the final phase of testing, dr. Makary on promising treatments nds lately. neighbor and that . burke oh, this . Just an app ive been working on. Its called signal from farmers, and it could save you up to fifteen percent on your auto insurance. Simply sign up, drive and save. But im sure whatever youve been working on is equally impressive. We are farmers. Bumpadum, bumbumbumbum [ ] when you have diabetes, managing your blood sugar is crucial. Try boost glucose control. The patented blend is clinically shown to help manage blood sugar levels. It provides 60 more protein than the leading diabetes nutrition shake. Try boost glucose control. Fund taxes matter too. Every time a fund manager sells a stock it triggers a Tax Liability for you. And the higher the turnover the more you have to pay in taxes every year. And heres the worst part, because of high turnover, you actually might have to pay taxes even if the fund itself loses money. Thats why you want to own low turnover funds whenever possible. The less you pay in fund fees, the less you pay in taxes, the more wealth you can accumulate. All this as the United States marks grim milestone in the pandemic with the death toll surpassing 150,000 this week. Dr. Marty makary, professor of Health Policy at John Hopkins Bloomberg school and fox news medical contributor. Dr. Makary, welcome, good to see you. Lets break this down into two parts, therapies and vaccines, start with therapies, whats working and and and why . Doctor well, its interesting paul. We have done pretty good with therapies so far. Weve got tennessee mortality rate down about 50 to 85 lower from what it was on the onset by less aggressive ventilator management, steroids, remdesivir, anticoagulation. We are doing better as doctors. Once we add antibody therapy, thats what regeneron is working on we might have down to seasonal flu levels which may be breakthrough absent of vaccine. Paul regeneron antibody treatment how far away that being introduce today hospitals . Doctor we are told some time this fall. If you think about everything that we have used so far, paul, theres been things on the shelf, anticoagulation, steroids, plasma, the first of the new innovations, we are talking about possibly this fall. Paul a lot of this it seems to me Clinical Trial and error. Im not a doctor and you are but seems like doctors all around the world treating patients have been trying new things, you know, something ventilators didnt work very well, high mortality rate, all right, lets try putting patients at a prone position. Lets try other things. Is that what a lot of this is . Is what we are seeing good fashion ole clinical medicine working . Doctor you know, thats a big part of it. If you think about systems of studying things and doing research in the u. S. , they are design for elaborate evaluations of lifestyle medications chemo, things with small differences over long periods of time, our system has not been set up for the rapid study and look at russia, they actually approved a vaccine for use in humans with much less criteria that we would require, we would consider that inadequate. China has been further along. They are using old platforms but we are learning a lot, you know, when doctors in italy posted protocols for ventilator management it went viral and we started using some of the guidance. Paul all right, lets turn to vaccines, pfizer and moderna trials now at phase 3, thats really good news. Are you what makes you first of all, are you optimistic that these vaccines are likely to prove effective . Doctor you know im not just optimistic but aspired by the American Ingenuity and if you could play back the tapes of all the legacy establishment scientists early in the pandemic that said at least a year and a half, right, we heard that over and over again. Here we are 4 months later, 27 vaccines that appear to work in vaccine trials and two in final stations or page 3 and that include Moderna Vaccine and pfizer vaccine. Modernas trial will start monday or tuesday. 30,000 getting the vaccine. Here we are in august, early august, thats pretty impressive. A hundred million doses can be ready as soon as fda approval happens. I dont think they will send to 30day review process. This to the think of 100 million doses. Paul could we see some high risk patients getting it even earlier . Doctor yeah, this calendar year, i think we are going to see 30,000 to ten Million People get it in various stages, maybe within early approval but the distribution and the administration is a barrier, only 39 of americans get the flu shot every year so theres also a communication challenge that we have to undergo, but yeah, thats promising and remember with h1n1 we had a twomonth delay just from unknown manufacturing process. Those hiccups are well known to occur with largescale manufacturing. One of the things that interest me at the beginning we still dont have vaccine for hiv, for example, whats made the difference in this case . Doctor well, first of all, thats a great point. Entire faith and stock went into vaccine for hiv. Turns out it was a therapeutic and not a vaccine to help us dig out of that. With this, the reason im optimistic about the vaccine is the early phase 2 results are very promising and looks like about 90 of people get in get strong immunity. Now what we call sterilizing immunity which is 100 which is what you get with measles shot but thats pretty high and the reason is that theyre using a new platform. They are not just using piece of protein code and they are using the virus and vector, does not replicate in humans so its safe and they are following the strong immune response that the body develops and thats really promising. We have seen antibodies, t cells and memory t cells develop immunity. Paul thank you, dr. Makary for being here and encouraging news. When we come back the u. S. Economy shrinks at record pace in Second Quarter as the coronavirus lockdowns take their toll. Consolidate all of that into one low monthly payment. They make you feel like its an honor for them to help you out. I went from sleepless nights to getting my money right. So thank you. Eric fox news alert. A new era in human Space Exploration, pretty exciting. Take a look live at successful and historic space mission, two nasa astronauts, they will soon emerge from the dragon spacex capsule that splashed down just a bit earlier in the gulf of mexico nears pensacola, florida in the last hour after docking with the International Space station and having twomonth mission. We are interrupting the journal editorial report with breaking news. Its like the old days when you would watch the splashdowns. Awe, inspiring and pretty amazing. Arthel it really is, eric, im arthel neville, astronauts left the International Space station last night after spending 2 months there. On may 30th they became the first astronauts sent into space by a private company and the first to launch from u. S. Soil in nearly a decade, so todays splashdown also the first water landing for nasa in more than 5 years. Pretty darn exciting, phil keating is live in Cape Canaveral, florida with more. Phil, i see a big smile in your face. Phil its pretty exciting the capsule in the pictures is not the spectacular white shiny brandnew crew dragon capsule that launched here on may 30th, its battle scared from what happenednd thats where the heat shield comes into effect, its 3500degrees fahrenheit, its like a giant fire ball coming in and everything went absolutely perfectly. All of those Apollo Missions by the way, 45 plus years ago back in late 60s and 70s, all of those capsules with those astronauts splashed down in the pacific. This is the first one to splash down right off the coast of florida. They had several different landing sites they could have chosen. Obviously the east coast atlantic ocean, east of Cape Canaveral or jacksonville not ideal right now because we have the Tropical Storm offshore, but over in the gulf, no storm impact at all. Winds were 2 and a half miles an hour for descent of the capsule and the sea state was essentially described as glass, so absolutely perfect weather and it came down like a bulls eye right on the dot about a mile and a quarter mile and a half away from the recovery ship, so it slashed down and sent gofast boats, attached harnesses to get recovery boat and they hoisted up with this big wench and now its on the deck and im not sure exactly how many minutes bob bankin and doug will remain in there but they undocked last night 7 30 eastern time from International Space station so they essentially orbited the earth for 17 hours until it was gotime for descent and to do the deorbit burn and initiate the parachutes and at 6,000 feet they put the big four parachutes to bring them down from the 120 miles an hour to roughly 17 miles an hour. Thats about the speed when they landed, but the two astronauts when they were talking about the liftoff and the flight and the docking with the international ship, perfectly like all other years in hawthorne california where spacex is headquartered and thats mission control, what youre watching on tv today. Nasa very involved as well. This is privatepublic partnership. This is the new model for nasa and the space program, so spacex has contracted, boeing is contracted, these are going to be the two private companies that will be launching our astronauts into space from now on. No more reliance on the russians, so its really a historic flight. Its a test flight technically speaking but it sure felt like a real flight and they did two months worth of work and research up there at the space station including a few space walks that bankin did helping to upgrade the power system on the space station with chris cassidy, Current Commission commander and whats amazing to me they will be home in their beds tonight in houston. I mean, its just such a fast turnaround compared to how it was decades ago when they were kind of quarantined for days if not weeks, but everything seems to have gone just absolutely flawless. The recovery operation also, a perfect, perfect execution of this, so the capsule is on the ship. The crew dragon, this is a triumph for elon musk and team and engineers and rocket scientists not only designed the capsule, they executed the mission and everything has gone really, really steamingly perfectly. The only other private company thats also going to be launching astronauts here is boeing. Theyve already done one test flight, they still have to do their second test flight which will actually have a couple of astronauts inside and that will mission. Its a proving test flight. Make sure that it lifts off, docks in the International Space station fine and the astronauts go up there, live and do research for a while and splash. That will actually land on land, that capsule the starliner will have inflatable balloons, if you will, on the bottom of the capsule and its going to come down and basically do a little small bounce on land also coming at 17 miles an hour. No schedule yet for that second test flight for boeing, spacex, their First Official crew launch not a test mission but a regularly scheduled nasa contracted mission to get astronauts up will likely happen some time in septemberened thats what the nasa administrator jim told me a couple of days ago, arthel. Arthel yeah, and phil, as youre talking we are watching with breath here where they are hopefully going to open up the hatch really soon and we will finally see doug and bob step out of the capsule and, of course, from there on the boat they will be attended by physicians to check their, you know, check their bodies, temperatures and all the other things that they will go, whatever checklist that they have to make sure that the guys themselves are doing okay and we dont respect any problems but, of course, thats part of the protocol and then like you say once they get to check there and however long thats going to take, the boat will get them one of the go boats will get them back to shore and from there nasa plane and fly to houston where as you also pointed out that theyll be at home tonight, so again, a lot different from it was from back in 5 years ago, 1975. Phil a couple of things other than the two men themselves that they brought back from space include tremor, gained International Fame two months ago when they after launch shot some video or sent a live broadcast to earth and the little dinosaur, sequenced up, its green, and cute, kids loved it, it ended up sold worldwide and you couldnt get another one. Each of them has boy that like dinosaurs, so its been up at the space station for the past 2 months and they are bringing them home. They are also bringing back a historic american flag, it went up on the very first Space Shuttle launch and they went up on the very last Space Shuttle launch which doug hurley was also involved with, they are bringing that flag back as well and just incredible experience we will never forget. Both of the men said they never thought that they would get to another flight. They both flown on Shuttle Missions years and years ago, low and behold they got to be the lucky ones and being here by nasa. Arthel phil, theres no surprise that each of the sons is really interested in space because bob bankins wife is astronaut and megan will launch next year and chris hurley is marry today married to a retired nasa. I will toss it over to you, i think you have a special guest on the phone. Eric yeah, arthel, this really brings back and recaptures what many saw 5 years ago. Remember back to the Apollo Missions, mercury when they had the flash down and the astronauts would emerge. What we are waiting for us in the capsule. Cap off Historic Mission for nasa and spacex as u. S. Is reviving space program. Astronaut flu four flew four missions and as you watch pictures live, what do you think, bob, what is going through bob and dougs mind as they are to breathe the earths oxygen for the first time in 2 months . Eric, this is gratifying moment for nasa and for the two men, my colleagues doug and bob, they are back on earth. They are safe, we are all very happy about that. It completes a milestone for this commercial Transportation System that nasa has got up from russian monopoly and by splashing down today they prove that the cycle is complete and we will have boeing come in and help with Transportation System in a few months. This now gives us the complete roundtrip capability. We have a lifeboat that we can send to space station and expand crew to 7 and that will give us more science output in the coming years. Its good step forward and great to see smooth, calm splashdown procedures today and so, you know, im looking forward to the crew getting the hatch open here and they are not going to be really theyre not going to be physically vigorous when they first come out. They will be basically lying on a stretcher when they come out because of their two months in space, the deconditioning that they faced up there and even though they worked out every day they will still feel the effect of earths gravity keenly and will lie down. Eric hopefully we will get a thumbs up from them. Youve been up in space. What is it like when suddenly you have to deal with gravity . Yes, on my returns, the longers trip i had was 18 days. They beat my stay, afterreturning earth after 3 weeks, i felt heavy for the first hour, little base disoriented in terms of my balance. Theyre a little bit unstable, they can walk but they are more comfortable sitting down and uncomfortable. Back to pensacola, theyll fly out on nasa jet where they will relax where they get back to houston for complete medical workup. Eric they will have the best lazy boy. Indeed. Eric tell me about the medical evaluation and for bob and doug, bob is a u. S. Air force colonel, hes 50 years old, doug is a former marine pilot as you pointed out. He flew in Space Shuttles too. Tell me about the guys . They are both colleagues of mine and they were hired on and i worked with them briefly before my space flight career ended and the guys carried the torch forward and i have respect for both of the men and families. Both spouses as you mentioned, phil did are both nasa astronauts themselves. These two guys are really good friends and have had years together to train and, you know, pull off really successful accomplishment for nasa and for the country, so my hats off to them and its great to see them back on earth. I interviewed bob just before he left to space. I cant wait to get a chance eric what did he say . What did he tell you . He told me about most memorable moments of the shuttle and doug was in the last Space Shuttle flight in 2011. Im looking forward the highlights to have new adventure hes on. Arthel tom, as you said we are anticipating that they will be okay for the most part meaning apart from just get on earth and getting some rest. Im curious, you know, when youre in when you move to a different time zone, you have terrible catching up on your sleep because your body is thrown off. What kind of body clock are they on having been on the International Space station . Space station crews keep universal time, so they are four hours ahead of east coast time right now. Their schedule is going to be a long day that theyve add under their belts today, they are going to be tired and as well as effects of gravity, they will be fatigued. I think they will catch a nap when they get to the aircraft taking them back to houston and then, of course, sleep when they get home and out on recovery ship and out on deck, flying sergeants from nasa right there, physical characteristics measured, blood pressure, temperature, make sure they have the right fluid volume and may have to give them iv after they lost fluid in space flight environment. Get them back, get them stable, get them feeling well and like i said keep the load of gravity off of them as much as possible so they have a chance. Arthel i know we spoke yesterday that theres a possibility that their stomach could have gotten upset upon return. [laughter] arthel to put it mildly. In terms of food, you know, how will that be reintroduced into their routine . Thats a great question. We had such great conditions in the splashdowns and the seasickness i hope was not a problem for them. There wasnt much of the crew dragon. I think they got through that just fine. Now its a question of who whats do they want to have for first meal back on earth. Its not space food and whatever they order from ship and indulge, my choice when i got back was a cheeseburger or pizza arthel very good, very good. Eric its amazing you see some of the damage, burnt damage, walk us through that white gloomy capsule with the carbon residue i guess from reentry, 3,500 but inside it doesnt get hotter than 80degrees in the capsule. It burps away as you reenter the atmosphere and so the heat of reentry is carried away by the melting and vaporization of the plastic or fiberglass type material on the bottom side of the capsules and it chars and burns away and carries the heat with it. It does give volume but thick enough that the heat can never penetrate fully to metal structure of spacecraft and so the cooling system on board can cope with that insulated situation outside and keep them cool on the inside. So, you know, they had individually cool space suits to wear during the decent, so not too bad inside the capsule and spacex developed a way to strip away the burn chador material from the bottom and reinstall a brandnew heat shield and spacecraft with luck be used if it passes qualification checks be used again on future mission. Eric what are they doing right now, do you think . It takes time as they wait. The hatch itself, for example, has explosive bolts, Energy Opening mechanism in case that was need today get out of the capsule in a hurry or here after flashdown. They have to disarm all of those systems and make sure all of the checks have been completed before they actually open up the hatch and get the crew exposed to, you know, the fresh air and breeze outside. Theyve got fresh air in the capsule through vents in the spacecraft. The battery on board provide ventilation and lighting, Radio Communications so now they are waiting to get the hatch, last physical barrier out of the way safely for ground crew and the astronauts and then they will come right out and i dont think theyll need assistance getting out but once they get out they will have them lie down for safety reasons. Arthel what about compression inside capsule versus what they get out is there some sort of transition. They maintain in International Space station just sea level atmosphere and the pressure is the same literally at sea level on the screen with what the capsule pressure is inside. Arthel and once they get back home safe and sound, you know how it is when you spend two weeks in a hotel and youre where am i, do you have that sort of effect when youre out in space or capsule or space station . Im sure doug and bob will have some real wakeup surprises to figure out they are back on earth. For example, first night after one mission i was sleeping in hotel in cocoa, beach and i would have the strongest sensation that if i let go to my pillow i was going to float up to the ceiling. You can bet i grabbed onto the thing all night long. Several nights of adaptation before you feel comfortable of mattress again. Eric what does that feel like . Going to sleep, you tuck yourself into a sleeping bag like the gentlemen did in sleep quarters and as soon as you closes your eyes, eric, you ii imagine that you are reclined. It doesnt matter what orientation youre in. Memory of being in your bed and so its not really a problem that would destroy your sleep in any way. You get good sleep without pressure points. Arthel any itch to go back up . Spacex and bow willing provide rides for nasa astronauts and the two spacecrafts will be used for tourism as well in the next few years and so i think it would be great to be able to go to space again on one to have vehicles or even another generation of commercial ship but my only condition is that i have to convince my wife to go with me. [laughter] arthel whats it going to take to cokes her you think in. I think i will have to come up with rationale so far. Shes a really good earth link. Eric recovery ship in which you see video, they have more than 40 staff members, doctors and nurses on the ship. Its a 15foot capsule and the medical teams are standing by for that and the last time we saw this was on july 24th, 1975. It was in the pacific, thats when they had the most splashdowns and as we have been reporting we havent seen this in generations and its pretty darn exciting right now. Arthel yeah, it really is and dragon endeavor will be returned back to spacex, dragon there in florida once we get astronauts off and the the capsule will go in for processing as well. Then the teams will then examine the data and performance of the spacecraft throughout the test flight to complete the certification of the system to fly Operational Missions for nasas commercial crew and International Space station programs that tom was just talking about. Basically the certification process is expected to take about 6 weeks and then if that certification is successful, well, the first Operational Mission will launch with crew dragon Commander Michael hopkins, the pilot, Victor Glover and Mission Specialist shannon walker, all of nasa and joining them will be someone from the japans Aerospace Exploration and launch on crew 1 mission from Launch Complex 39a as we saw a little while ago, two months ago before the guys left, Nasas Kennedy Space Center in florida. Its going to be crew and spend 6 months on the space station, what do you think about that, tom, six months . Well, this is the routine that we will be looking forward to with the Transportation System available, the crews can go up to 6 months, crew dragon or boeing starliner will go boat up and the russians for the crew and can carry 3 people. Four at least and maybe even more on crew dragon and starliner, that allows you to have a larger crew if you can keep starliner for six months and certification process will verify for nasa that it has got the system, longevity, reliability to stay up there for 6 month interval. That allows to have more crew and we the taxpayers get a bigger payoff for investment in space station and improve systems to return to moon and go onto mars eventually. Its great to get the 6month capacity and capability out of spacecraft and get onto normal operations for the next ten years or so of space station operation. Eric we are watching the inside video of both doug and bob as they wait. What we are told is that the reason youre seeing the oxygen tanks and the gas masks is they want to make sure that there are no toxic fumes around the capsule as they are decommissioning would be the word. Eric, thats a good point, the fuel on board the crew dragon is toxic form of rocket fuel and you dont want that venting out and out of any of the reports or any leaks from the propellant plumbing system so they are verifying they dont have any toxic gas or leaks right now. The last splashdown that we did in 1975 some rocket fuel leaked through some vents on board spacecraft as they came down in parachutes and the crews, the 3 astronauts sustained lung damage from the toxic gas inhalation, thats exactly what we dont want to have in splashdown and recovery and facing to have capsule here. Arthel it looks like to crew there on board the ship, that they are in some sort of special gear as well. Id imagine for that very reason. They have masks and tanks on their basks. Backs. Exactly. If they do have leaks from propellants they wouldnt be exposed to it. The crew inside are safe but the outside crew is who we want to keep safe. Arthel i see. Eric remarkable. Youre looking at three guys an maybe a woman, just 3 people taking care of things. I guess, tom, this can become commercially viable. Sure, instead of 1970s when you had entire Navy Aircraft carrier involved in recovery, this is slimdown and efficient operation that spacex has put together and the other Company Boeing will do the same and sierra, nevada, future commercial Space Transport companies will have a similar runway recovery crew when they get going in the next couple of years. This is a great system and, again, more competitive because youve got commercial competitors involved to lower the cost to nasa and i think its a great way to go forward. Its good to remember that nasa has own spacecraft, deep space capsule that will go to the moon and eventually to asteroids and mars and that is government run with nasa contractors and nasa hasnt given up on own spacecraft yet. Eric okay. Arthel i was just was going to ask, tom, is everything going as smoothly as it seems. We are casually talking about these but these are major operations involved and quite the feat to accomplish . Looks like the team detected toxin. Eric amazing point, arthel. Casually discussing this when you have to consider the decades of man space flight and what has gone into this operation as successfully pulled this off as privatepublic partnership and, tom, you know, the allure and romanticism and became routine, we used to grow up and we knew the names of all the astronauts and now i guess sadly in a way people dont know but now it seems to be back. Tell us about that . The sense of aspiration, the sense of possibilities, reaching out to the stars that will continue and as you said, tourists in the near future could do this. Yes, what this means that many more people would get chance to go to lower orbit and later on into the moon, for example. That will open up the possibility of weve got paying tourists. Obviously the wealthy will start the process. Nasa given approval to happen in the space station through these companies and these Transportation Systems, so thats going to happen in the near future but i always tell audiences especially schoolaged children when i talk to them that there are opportunities to go into space personally are much greater than they were during apollo, during the Space Shuttle 30 years because now its not just government opportunity but a private opportunity that you can apply for and compete for. Imagine the young people getting jobs in not only tourism but set ting up private pharmaceutical factories, Research Labs in space that will be run by individual companies or consortiums and nasa will become a tenant on the private much greater opportunity for people to get into space experience the environment and the excitement of Space Exploration and then come back and convey to that us here. Arthel eric, any possibility of it becoming too much of a good thing, if theres so much traffic theres adverse effect . I dont think we will have any problems with tourism and the number of military and commercial satellites frankly far outnumber the private human space flights that we could foresee in next decades or more. This is something that we aspire to. We want to expand the economy of the United States off the planet and develop Research Manufacturing facilities up there to take advantage of the resources of space and to follow products that are being developed on the space station right now and bring them up to production status where we actually have factories making valuable materials for return to earth. Eric two quick questions, we are not seeing new era because of publicpartnership, what we are looking dawn of new industry, the horses went to automobiles and Aviation Industry started. When you talk to the young people, they will have all of the new opportunities and just mentioned manufacturing, what are they doing in Space Shuttle and what can they manufacture in space thats more advantageous than here on planet earth . Right on the space station right now they are developing forms of protein crystals, for example, that make up pharmaceutical drugs and so they could be made in more pure form in space station in the absence of gravity and ungravel molecular structure in that environment and better understanding on how to create better materials down the earth and another example material science, two metals in a mixture in free fall and they can freeze solid that you couldnt manufacture in the earth because of the density difference in the two metals. Like mixing lead and aluminum, not that that would be valuable, those could be forming a strong in space and critical parts in jet engine, for example, form some critical material that we would need for manufacturing on the earth, so you might see the private factories develop to develop pharmaceuticals, various chemicals, new combinations of metals that can be useful to technologies back here on earth and even electronic manufacturing, conductors in space that are more pure and more capable, more efficient than you can manufacture in the dirty laboratories and factories that we have in the ground and eventually i would like to see space used as the heavy industry location off the planet, you know, you use the ice resources on the moon to make rocket fuel instead of having to ship it up from earth at great expense. The sunlight, ice on the moon and the asteroids and expand our economies using Raw Materials up there. Arthel so is there any way that the mel molecular structure would be compromised once return today lab on earth . Well, if you can manufacture the drug in its complete form in space it would survive returning to earths gravity. Its just a matter of getting the combinations, you know, the chemical reactions to occur in a way thats free of influence of gravity. Let me give you another example, they have tested in space station growing human cells and cultures on board the space station and without the absence of gravity, these cells particularly cancer cell culture can force realistic tumor that we cant study labs on the ground. It can be expanded over the space stations room or actually grow transplantable tissues in the absence of gravity in 3 dimensional organs and tissue that can be planted in sick people. Thats a potential area of biomedicine thats very exciting. Arthel that is exciting. We were told by the way, its been an hour or so sin since splashdown and we are waiting for hatch to be open. It looks like to atmosphere inside is safe and the outside within normal limits. I think they are going to get ready to open hatch pretty quick. Eric thats exciting. We talk about Space Exploration. Why with so many issues down here on earth, because of this they created, well, camera phones, cat scans, leds, tremendous number of developments, Water Purification systems and the such that have helped us with life back here on earth, so in a way we are just really beginning as you say new frontier of industry and developments. Yeah, the space station is a good example. They tested life support systems out there and you can recycle basically the crews waste urine into portable Drinking Water and the crew recycles most of the liquid waste that they produce along with excess humidity in the air into portable portable and safe Drinking Water. That kind of purification process, the technology can be transferred to places on the ground here where we have have problems with finding safe Drinking Water for a village, town and thats the kind of breakthroughs in technology that we need to, you know, to keep earth habitable. Arthel thats fascinating. Those types of discoveries and institutes are vital to human in existence. What about that aspect . Can that become too much of a good thing . Just asking. In terms of tourism, arthel . Arthel yeah, yeah. Well, i would like to see the competition bring the price down rapidly. Space should not only be a place where the rich can go. We dont want that to be limited to the very super wealthy. Right now its been costing up towards to 50 million to make a trip to the space station. The russians have only carried a handful of people up there. So spacex and boeing will have to beat that price and itll be in tens of millions of dollars for orbreal trip on earth and this is within 20 years youll have so many competitors and the technology will become so reliable that the cost of getting up there will be equivalent in terms of spending power to going to the south pole or taking a trip to antarctica today. So its still going to be a real luxury vacation for a long time, but it wont out of reach of many, many people who have saved money and want to do something thats really exciting life once in a lifetime adventure. Arthel youre okay with that . We cant you know, man we are wonderful species but i think sometimes we get in the way of nature and the way things are in purest forms, im just wonder if you have too many tourists in space down the line when it becomes more accessible, could that present problems atmospherically or otherwise . For example, i would not want to have tourists running all over the apollo 11 landing site so you want to keep some areas of the moon surface, historical, reservations, National Parks or interNational Parks, if you will, and prevent those from being spoiled by our future visits up there, but you know e space is a huge empty place for the most part and theres plenty of rooms and private facilities can be built to house tourists, thats where we are headed, lets build the hotels up there and let people have fun and let people be inspired by the journeys to space as our nasa friends here on board crew dragon have been. Arthel wow. Eric a lot marriott points with the marriott hotel. Small amount, nto oxygen, potentially toxic, using the propellent as tom said so what are they doing now, tom, do you think, check to checking that its not a dangers. Make sure they are okay. Last thing you want to do is open the door and have the crew breathe toxic fumes. Those combine to fire the thrusters that they use, so you can see some of the people are not wearing masks. Its not dangerous outside of the capsule but making sure reading stay stable for a period of a few minutes before they finally open up. Arthel who is communicating with the astronauts right now . The Crew Dragon Mission control team handed it over to recovery crew on board the ship. They are plugged in directly to the capsule and talk to crew. Theres telephone jack that they plug into the side. Eric i heard arthel laugh when i mentioned the marriott. Arthel i did. Arthel tom, im sorry, eric, im sure what you said it was funny but i didnt hear it. Tom, i do want to ask you is this taking this release in whatever toxic fuels around the seal here, is this taking longer than anticipated, yes or no, and if it is, look, we know that these two astronauts are professionals and they have been waiting for two months to be back home. Its kind of like, is any possibility that they could become at this late in the game anxious to get out of there. Is that possible . Well, its taking longer than plan about 30 minutes i would say, however, the two guys the coolers pilots, engineers at all. They are not phased, lying horizontally and they are comfortable as they can be and i think they are just patient is something that you learn as an restaurant whether its waiting for a launch to get cleared by bad weather or what have you. So these guys have been patient from day one on this mission and this is just a small footnote in the process of coming home. Arthel well, weve been told that the toxic gas purge is complete, so we should be seeing those astronauts, those rock stars emerge from that capsule any moment now. In terms of tom, in terms of family anticipation are the wives and families going to meet them at nasa and houston and return actually to their home . Theyll meet them at airport in houston just outside of space center there. The idea to get them as rapidly as possible given the medical checks on the ship and get them in good health and on the way back to houston. They go via helicopter and jump on the nasa transport jet, smallbusinessstyle jet and flies them two hours to field and go into the arms of their families and then theyll be transported back to their homes and then they have available to and then they have available to where they start rehabilitation and debriefing process. If they would like to rest, they can do that. The first night, theyll go back home with their family. Arthel what does rehabilitation involve . Your muscles are in pretty good shape. The coordination has to come back. Theyll put the crew through a sequence of rehab exercises through a Swimming Pool at the rehab and crew quarters facility with a Strength Training coach and flight surgeons there. You work up from walking on the water to walking on land. Arthel the hatch is open. Lets see them emerge. I heard your last point. Thank you for that. The hatch is open. Right now, theyre going to put a piece of equipment in there that basically smooths out the edges and makes sure that it is a comfortable exit from the dragon capsule, just a little piece of structure there to ensure that the hatch will remain open and that any sharp edges around that side hatch are protected
