Episode Notes

The dream of interstellar travel, of reaching another star system and setting foot on another world, has been with us for centuries. Since before the Space Age, several concepts have been proposed. As we enter a new era of space exploration, many of these concepts are being reconsidered. But which are feasible and could reach another star in our lifetimes?

Episode Notes

Kenneth Goodis Gordon is a Ph.D. candidate with the University of Central Florida's Planetary Science Group. His research focuses on exoplanets and the search for life in the cosmos (astrobiology). In a recent research paper, he and his colleagues recommend how studying polarized light from exoplanets could allow future observatories like the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) to find evidence of life on other worlds!

Episode Notes

In 1966, NASA and the Soviet space program focused all of their efforts on getting to the Moon first. On July 20th, 1969, Americans succeeded and landed the first astronauts on the lunar surface. By reaching the Moon, NASA effectively won the Space Race. But what followed was a new era of cooperation and long-term plans that would eventually lead back to the Moon and onto Mars...
