Inside NASA: Kennedy Space Center all-access behind the scenes [Ep. 445]
b"The Carolina Weather Group's James Brierton takes you on an all-access, behind-the-scenes tour of Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral in Florida. As we countdown to the launch of NASA SpaceX Crew-6 launch to the International Space Station, James takes you inside places not normally open to the public:\\n
\\nGo inside the vehicle assembly building, also known as the VAB, where NASA is preparing for the Artemis missions to the Moon. Plus, climb aboard the crawler vehicle, which has been used to carry Apollo, space shuttle, and Artemis' space launch system to the historic launch complex 39B.\\n
\\nA look inside NASA Kennedy's aviation hanger shows you the helicopters used for television broadcasts, medical transports, and security missions around the Cape.\\n
\\nGo inside the plant lab where botanists are creating gardens that astronauts will use to grow their own food and nutrition of future missions to the moon and Mars.\\n
\\nJames and his fellow NASA Social participants interview real-life NASA astronauts and the director of Kennedy Space Center.\\n
\\nGo off the tour path and go inside the forgotten office of Wernher von Braun, the German-American aerospace engineer who left behind Hitler's Nazi party after World War II to help the United States Air Force (now the Space Force) and later NASA develop the first rockets for space and missile defensives during the Cold War.\\n
\\nThen join James and the Carolina Weather Group's Jared Smith for the countdown to launch as four astronauts - two from the United States, one from the United Arab Emirates, and one from Russia - launch to the International Space Center to begin their six-month stay for the Crew-6 mission.\\n
