Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Artemis II is a go for launch plus, how NASA is helping tortoises
Q: Can you tell us what science you hope to gather from Artemis II?
There is a huge range of science—from studying cabin environment and radiation to observing how crew operates in deep-space-like conditions, and how the crew's observations complement robotic data for lunar geology and timing of events.
Moon science and Curious Space
Q: Who inspired you to go to space?
Inspiration came from a mix of Navy experience and the desire to contribute to life on Earth; space offers a unique way to push boundaries and share discoveries with future generations.
Moon science and Curious Space
Q: What does it feel like to be in a spacesuit?
Spacesuits are heavy and cumbersome on Earth, weighing hundreds of pounds, but in space you're effectively weightless; moving, working, and performing tasks requires training and conditioning because the suit resists every move.
Moon science and Curious Space
Q: What is something you didn't expect in space?
In space, everything feels different, especially the zero gravity and how Earth appears from up there; the planet looks small, fragile, and incredibly beautiful, which underscored for me the importance of exploration and stewardship.
Moon science and Curious Space
Q: How overwhelming is the liftoff? How and why?
The liftoff is incredibly fast and intense; you accelerate from standstill to orbital speeds within minutes, feeling the power of multiple stages while managing a highly choreographed countdown and the rocket's massive thrust.
