 So this was serial 1 number one. It was built during the Apollo time. I guess because they thought there would be several of them made, but this is the first one and the last one and is the only one like it in the world. 


 
This is NASA’s Vertical 2 Gun Range. It was built to study how impacts affected 3 the moon as the astronauts prepared to make the first lunar landing. We are armed, gated and reset 4. Today, Professor Pete Schultz uses it to model precisely 5 the dynamics 6 of an asteroid 7 impact. 
 
We know that these asteroid impacts are bad but you want to understand really how bad. 
 
Pete uses the NASA gun to fire projectiles 8 at very high speed to simulate an asteroid hitting the Earth. 
 
So for this experiment we’re going to fire this tiny quarter-inch aluminium 9 sphere at very high speeds up to around five kilometres per second. And then we will see what type of crater 10 it produces. The target it will hit is made of sand. So we use sand because it records the shock affects very clearly. Outside of the impact chamber 11 are super high-speed cameras that can film at up to 1,000,000 frames per second, capturing every detail of the impact and the aftermath. Ok, lights out. Everything good?
 
Yeah.
 
Ok, we’re out of here. 
 
We have high voltage, the paddle is in, the warning lights, and rolling.
