WEBVTT 00:00.040 --> 00:02.170 my name is dr joe corvo . I'm the 00:02.170 --> 00:04.281 director of the Cold Regions Research 00:04.281 --> 00:06.170 and engineering lab located up in 00:06.170 --> 00:08.281 Hanover new Hampshire and here we are 00:08.281 --> 00:10.448 on the handover campus in front of our 00:10.448 --> 00:12.614 new Cold climatic chamber . Many times 00:12.614 --> 00:14.780 when you're doing your scientific or 00:14.780 --> 00:16.891 engineering inquiries to try to solve 00:16.891 --> 00:19.630 problems you you you have to have 00:19.640 --> 00:21.620 highly controlled environmental 00:21.620 --> 00:25.610 conditions and so when we go out into 00:25.620 --> 00:28.740 the world of course we can't control 00:28.740 --> 00:30.870 any environmental conditions can we ? 00:30.880 --> 00:33.060 But with this facility will be able to 00:33.060 --> 00:36.070 maintain steady environmental 00:36.070 --> 00:38.860 conditions but then we can shift them , 00:38.890 --> 00:41.270 change them so we actually get to 00:41.280 --> 00:44.460 control that extreme cold environment . 00:45.310 --> 00:47.254 And again we do that because we're 00:47.254 --> 00:51.220 trying to achieve goals for which we 00:51.220 --> 00:53.160 might have very rigid military 00:53.160 --> 00:56.320 standards for example or even civil 00:56.320 --> 00:58.376 engineering standards and we want to 00:58.376 --> 01:00.653 show that we can achieve that standard . 01:00.653 --> 01:03.200 We're actually going to use this 01:03.210 --> 01:06.100 facility to do work to meet the 01:06.100 --> 01:07.878 strategic goals of the Corps of 01:07.878 --> 01:09.767 Engineers and that priority is to 01:09.767 --> 01:12.450 protect and defend the arctic . And so 01:12.460 --> 01:15.160 likewise the army just published an 01:15.170 --> 01:17.810 arctic strategy . We're gonna use this 01:17.810 --> 01:19.830 facility to meet the goals of that 01:19.840 --> 01:22.260 arctic strategy and I can go on and on . 01:22.260 --> 01:24.730 Because the Navy has an arctic strategy . 01:24.730 --> 01:26.897 The Air Force has an arctic strategy . 01:26.897 --> 01:28.730 All of D . O . D . Has an arctic 01:28.730 --> 01:30.674 strategy . And so this facility is 01:30.674 --> 01:33.300 going to be used by by Carell by er 01:33.300 --> 01:35.189 deck scientists and engineers and 01:35.189 --> 01:37.930 technicians to help our country achieve 01:37.940 --> 01:40.760 strategic goals and how cool is that . 01:41.140 --> 01:44.730 I can't tell you how how much of it is . 01:44.740 --> 01:47.930 A pleasure to me to be able to tell the 01:47.930 --> 01:50.152 scientists and engineers of the verdict 01:50.152 --> 01:52.830 that they have a powerful new tool , a 01:52.840 --> 01:55.090 world class tool . And it gives me 01:55.090 --> 01:57.670 pleasure just being able to help them 01:57.670 --> 02:00.330 to acquire this new tool . And so we're 02:00.330 --> 02:02.052 gonna have a lot of very happy 02:02.440 --> 02:04.330 scientists and engineers working 02:04.330 --> 02:06.497 together to solve some of our nation's 02:06.497 --> 02:08.719 tough , toughest problems right in that 02:08.740 --> 02:10.962 brand new state of the art facility and 02:10.962 --> 02:12.962 it just gives me absolute joy to be 02:12.962 --> 02:15.073 able to say , Here you go , you got a 02:15.073 --> 02:17.184 new tool to do your mission . We have 02:17.184 --> 02:19.407 the world's largest a lot of things and 02:19.407 --> 02:21.629 it takes the world's largest facilities 02:21.629 --> 02:23.740 to execute our world class mission on 02:23.740 --> 02:25.962 behalf of this nation . So I was very , 02:25.962 --> 02:28.184 very proud of our Cold Regions research 02:28.184 --> 02:28.000 and engineering laboratory team from 02:28.000 --> 02:30.000 the engineers and scientists to the 02:30.000 --> 02:32.000 technicians , to the administrators 02:32.000 --> 02:34.056 that make this place home . You guys 02:34.056 --> 02:36.111 have been doing world class research 02:36.111 --> 02:38.333 for six decades . I've been coming here 02:38.333 --> 02:40.556 since the 80s and I've been so proud of 02:40.556 --> 02:42.667 this team , especially proud though , 02:42.667 --> 02:44.833 is the director of ergic uh for all of 02:44.833 --> 02:46.944 our laboratories and today especially 02:46.944 --> 02:46.430 proud of Israel and the entire team 02:46.430 --> 02:48.500 here . So I'm very proud of you . 02:48.530 --> 02:50.697 Please keep up the great work and look 02:50.697 --> 02:51.050 forward to seeing you again
