Fueled By Death Cast

Fueled By Death Cast welcomes a guest each week and asks the question, "What Fuels You?" Born from the Death Wish Coffee Company and their mission to fuel people's passions, hosts Jeff and Dustin are curious about what makes people do what they do, and why. We are all "fueled by death" - each of us with our own drive to live life to its fullest before we inevitably leave this rock for good.

SCIENCE: NASA plans to explore the Moon and Mars

Mar 17, 2019

On our science segment this week, I unpack all the details from NASA's announcement to go back to the Moon to stay, and eventually go to Mars. Starting in 2020, the Orion Spacecraft will begin test launches on the SLS rocket. Also, NASA and private and commercial companies will be working on the Gateway spacecraft which will act as an orbiting hub around the Moon to ferry astronauts to the lunar surface. Along with new science experiments and robotic rovers being deployed to the Moon, everything will be used as a field test to inevitably send a human presence to Mars by 2030. This is all exciting and groundbreaking for humanity, but we need to think about revising the laws that govern space as well. Dr. Michio Kaku chimes in on this idea from a clip from episode 63 of Fueled By Death Cast.
