In this episode of Future Tech, NASA Astronaut Jerry Ross reflects on a lifetime spent inside America’s space program — from engineering classrooms to seven missions aboard the Space Shuttle. Ross shares what it really took to prepare humans for space: relentless training, systems thinking, and the quiet work of thousands of people who never wore flight suits. From EVA tool design and ISS assembly to ground teams solving problems in real time, this conversation reveals how human spaceflight has always depended on preparation, redundancy, and trust.

Jerry is the narrator of the upcoming documentary Before the Moon, which tells the story of how we learned to survive flight before leaving Earth — and Jerry Ross reminds us that space was never conquered by individuals, but by teams.
