  • Ocean Worlds: Europa Clipper's Quest for Alien Life
    2024/10/14

    In this fascinating discussion, we explore the mysterious world of Europa, one of Jupiter's moons and a prime candidate in our search for extraterrestrial life. The conversation revolves around NASA's Europa Clipper mission, which launched on October 13, 2024 and will arrive at Jupiter in April 2030. We explain that what makes Europa special is its vast subsurface ocean, potentially containing twice the volume of all Earth's oceans combined, hidden beneath an icy shell. This ocean, along with potential energy sources and chemical building blocks, makes Europa an intriguing target for exploring the possibility of life beyond Earth.


    The discussion delves into the sophisticated technology aboard the Europa Clipper, including nine cutting-edge instruments designed to study various aspects of the moon, from its ice shell to its deep interior. Discover how the spacecraft will perform a careful "cosmic ballet" to navigate Jupiter's intense radiation belts while gathering data during flybys. We'll also explore the broader implications of the mission, emphasizing that it's not just about finding alien life, but understanding our place in the cosmos and potentially unlocking clues about the origins of life itself. The conversation concludes by reflecting on the profound impact that discovering even microbial life on Europa would have on human understanding and perspective.

  • SpaceX Starship vs FAA: The high stakes drama of space exploration
    2024/10/06

    In this episode, we dive into the intriguing conflict between SpaceX and the FAA regarding the Starship program, a critical component of humanity’s journey to Mars. As excitement builds for the upcoming flight test of the Starship and its innovative booster recovery system, the FAA has put the brakes on the launch, citing safety concerns. This clash highlights not just the challenges of rocket science but also the regulatory hurdles that could impact the future of space exploration.


    We explore the implications of this tension, including environmental concerns tied to SpaceX's operations and how these regulations could affect broader initiatives like NASA's Artemis program. With rising competition from other countries and the need for updated regulatory frameworks, we ask the crucial questions: How do we balance safety and innovation? What does the future of space exploration look like in a landscape where private companies are taking the lead? Join us for a deep dive into these pressing issues and their significance for the future of humanity in space.

  • Psyche's Epic Voyage to a Metal Asteroid - Interview with Chief Engineer David Oh
    2023/08/17
    Interview with David Oh, Chief Engineer NASA’s upcoming Psyche mission is a robotic spacecraft mission that will explore the asteroid 16 Psyche, which is believed to be made almost entirely of metal. The mission is scheduled to launch in October 2023 and arrive at the asteroid in 2026. The spacecraft will study the asteroid’s composition, geology, and magnetic field. The mission will also test a new laser communication technology that will allow for faster data transmission between Earth and the spacecraft. This interview features David Oh, a Chief Engineer for Psyche: Journey to a Metal World, a mission in NASA's Discovery program. David has experience in all phases of spacecraft development from conceptual design to deep space operations. He has worked on both Earth Orbiting and Interplanetary missions and has led teams of 20+ engineers in spacecraft design, testing, and operations. His expertise includes avionics, electric propulsion, low thrust trajectories, power systems, and spacecraft environmental interactions. For more information visit https://www.nasa.gov/psyche

  • SpaceX Crew-7 – Interview with Pilot Andreas Mogensen
    2023/07/27

    We’re just a few weeks away for the Crew-7 mission, the seventh operational flight of a Crew Dragon spacecraft.

    SpaceX’s Crew Dragon is a reusable spacecraft designed to transport astronauts to and from the International Space Station. It is part of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program, which aims to provide safe, reliable, and cost-effective transportation to and from the ISS.

    Crew Dragon is capable of carrying up to seven astronauts and is equipped with advanced features such as touch screen controls, an environmental control and life support system, and a launch escape system. The spacecraft is launched atop a Falcon 9 rocket and returns to Earth by splashing down in the ocean.

    Since its first crewed flight in May 2020, Crew Dragon has successfully transported multiple crews to the ISS, including the upcoming Crew-7 mission.

    This mission will transport four astronauts to the International Space Station: Jasmin Moghbeli from NASA, Andreas Mogensen from ESA (European Space Agency), Satoshi Furukawa from JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency), and Konstantin Borisov from Roscosmos. The launch is currently targeted for August 17th and will take place at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

    In this episode I’m pleased to present my recent interview with Crew 7 pilot Andreas Mogensen. This will be his second trip to space, following his 10-day ISS mission in 2015 where he became the first Danish citizen in space. During the Crew-7 mission, Andreas will be responsible for the spacecraft’s performance and systems, and will become the first European to serve as the pilot of a SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft. In addition, Andreas will take over as Station Commander of the ISS in September.

    In this interview, we will discuss Andreas’ role in the Crew-7 mission, his passion for space exploration, and some of the experiments that he will conduct on board the International Space Station during the 6-month mission.

  • Unveiling the Dark Universe: Inside the Euclid Space Telescope Mission with Giuseppe Rocca
    2023/06/28

    Interview with ESA Euclid Senior Project Manager, Giuseppe Racca.

    Since 2012 Giuseppe has been responsible for the Euclid mission, a space-based optical/near-infrared survey mission of the European Space Agency (ESA) designed to investigate the nature of dark energy, dark matter and gravity by observing their signatures on the geometry of the Universe and on the formation of large structures over cosmological timescales. Euclid will use two main techniques in the detection of the signature of dark matter and energy: Weak Gravitational Lensing and Galaxy Clustering. The spacecraft is scheduled for a launch date in 2023 and is designed for 6 years of nominal survey operations.
