00:00.740 --> 00:02.629
we're here today to celebrate the

00:02.629 --> 00:04.796
opening of the Air Force research labs

00:04.800 --> 00:06.967
research altitude chambers and we call

00:06.967 --> 00:09.244
them the rack . So Iraq , as mentioned ,

00:09.244 --> 00:11.189
is a set of four distinct , highly

00:11.189 --> 00:13.356
specialized altitude research chambers

00:13.740 --> 00:15.907
that will be used to perform a variety

00:15.907 --> 00:18.280
of altitude related tasks to determine

00:18.280 --> 00:20.058
the effects of altitude on both

00:20.058 --> 00:21.780
personnel and mission critical

00:21.780 --> 00:22.780
equipment .

00:23.240 --> 00:27.210
Today . In the demonstration , what

00:27.210 --> 00:30.040
we saw is a balloon get really large or

00:30.040 --> 00:32.690
actually is a glove as well as we saw

00:32.690 --> 00:35.780
water um start to boil and the reason

00:35.780 --> 00:37.502
that happened is we went above

00:37.502 --> 00:39.558
Armstrong's line at Armstrong's line

00:39.558 --> 00:41.280
63,000 ft or so , depending on

00:41.280 --> 00:43.502
environmental conditions , What we find

00:43.502 --> 00:46.280
is that the pressure gets so low that

00:46.280 --> 00:48.490
water at about human body temperature

00:48.500 --> 00:50.880
will start to spontaneously vaporize .

00:50.880 --> 00:53.840
And that's what we saw today . We're

00:53.840 --> 00:55.618
definitely standing at the docs

00:55.618 --> 00:57.870
epicenter of aerospace , physiological

00:57.880 --> 00:59.530
research capability and

00:59.530 --> 01:04.560
expertise .

01:05.140 --> 01:05.340
Yeah .
