GUEST BIOS:
Charlie Blackwell-Thompson serves as launch director for NASA’s Exploration Ground Systems Program, based at NASA’s John F. Kennedy Space Center in Florida. She oversees the countdown and liftoff of NASA’s SLS (Space Launch System) rocket and Orion spacecraft for the Artemis missions. On Nov. 16, 2022, Blackwell-Thompson led her team during the first launch of Artemis - and uncrewed flight test of SLS and the Orion spacecraft. She is now preparing for Artemis II, the first crewed Artemis mission. Named to the position in January 2016, Blackwell-Thompson is NASA’s first female launch director.
Her role includes leading and managing the launch operations planning and execution for the Exploration Ground Systems program and Exploration Systems Development Division, or ESD. She also serves as the cross-program lead to the Launch Integration team responsible for integration and coordination of launch operations across the three programs: SLS, Orion and EGS. In her role as launch director, she manages the development of all launch countdown plans, philosophy, and launch and scrub turnaround procedures and schedules, as well as training approaches.
Mike Massimino is a New York Times bestselling author who served as a NASA Astronaut from 1996 to 2014. He is a four-time spacewalker who completed two missions to the Hubble Space Telescope, including the final Hubble servicing mission which has been called the most dangerous and complex mission in space shuttle history. Mike set a team record with his crewmates for the most cumulative spacewalking time in a single space shuttle mission, and he was also the first person to tweet from space. Mike received his BS from Columbia University and his PhD from MIT. He currently lives in New York City where he is a professor at Columbia, Senior Space Advisor at the Intrepid Museum, an expert television commentator, and an in-demand keynote speaker. He also had a recurring role as himself on The Big Bang Theory television series.

OMG Charlie Blackwell-Thompson the best!! Thank you NSF, Elysia, Das, Mike, EJ, & Charlie!!!!
I really enjoyed this interview, and Mike kept it running smoothly. I also appreciate Elysia asking extra questions just for us afterwards. Great work NSF team.
Easily the greatest NASA interview in history…well done Charlie, true soul.
Thank you Elysia, Das, Mike, Charlie etc! Hope to see Artemis II in just over a year.
Nice presentation! Alicia you are great host! Nothing like a theatre major rockin’ it about space!
Hoping to see exciting Atermis II!
Great video. Can’t wait for Artemis II
Space, the final frontier, to boldly go where no human need to go.
Nice of Charlie to do these public relations events every couple months.
Wish Gwynn would follow that example more.
it’d be great if Charlie got the question about how the Test & Launch Ops teams fill the 18+ month gap in between launches….esp if they are not involved in VAB stacking ops. Has to be more than just training and sims, right ? Maintenance mgmnt on GLS equipment?
Right now, Artemis 2 is scheduled for no earlier than September 2025, so almost 3 years after Artemis 1. What do they besides training and Sims, wasting millions of tax payer dollars. The Artemis program is a joke and should be canceled and all resources given to SpaceX.
Love your dress Elysia - I have one too!
haha first there was no sound then it's so much sound the kids are speaking over the guests LOL but I loved the talk 👏👏
How can we go back to, something we never went to in the first place?
I remember Charlie's cameo on Space Cowboys..
Artemis 2 was the moon mission in Superman 2 that ran into Zod and compantions. I can't be the first person to observe this.
Ah theres a story its mythology
We go by name sake not the last thing named after it
Not shure it will ever happen...
It is 2024, everyone watching online or TV or any digital way has the ability to turn on cc so why do they still show the sign language lady on screen?
For those who cant read or write duh
There were 2 front rows dedicated for ASL attendees. That's how they could understand what was bring said
@@timwidner8751 100% but why do they show it on tv still? I understand for the people there. IDK not a big deal just curious.
