    Our museum collection, like a lot of other museums' collections, can be a working collection. That means that scientist come to do air or space research using objects in the museum. Sometimes it's as simple as an engineer coming after hours to look a little closer at a plane or spacecraft so they can better understand how it works. And other times researchers leave seismometers on the Viking Lander for several weeks.

    Thanks to our guests in this episode:

    • Dr. Malcolm Collum, Head Conservator-National Air and Space Museum
    • Dr. Ben Fernando, Post-Doctoral Researcher-Johns Hopkins University
    • Dr. Kevin Lewis, Vice Chair and Professor in Earth and Planetary Science-Johns Hopkins University
    • Dr. Andy Lazarewicz, Formerly of the Viking Seismology Team

    Additional thanks to Lisa Young and Becca Hiatt of the National Air and Space Museum's Collections Processing Unit
