#28: Why the Hell is Space Exploration Important When the Planet is Literally on Fire?

In Episode 28, Quinn & Brian ask: why the hell is space exploration important when the planet is literally on fire?

To answer that, they’ve brought on The Space Gal, Emily Calandrelli. And boy does she set the record straight.

Emily is an MIT-engineer turned Emmy-nominated science host on TV and online, and she’s also a children’s book author.

Join us as we discuss the history of space exploration, what she’d do as NASA administrator/dictator, and her own upbringing in West Virginia.
