As Sun Ra says, "Space Is the Place." So we brought guests into the studio who could bring us to the stars.
Shelburne, Massachusetts, astronaut Cady Coleman joins us to bring light to life on the International Space Station (since she was there for nearly six months), including who gets to go there these days. Also, she tells us details of her training to become an astronaut, just in case you're looking into the process.
The visit of one space-focused person surely deserves another. So we also have astronomer Salman Hameed, Mr. Universe himself, drop by to explore the details of the new spacesuits for the proposed moonwalk.
Our local astronaut is also a flutist making an appearance at The Drake in Amherst this weekend with the band Minstrels in the Gallery. So we invite that band's Chris Devine, a resident Ian Anderson impersonator, to play a tune and expound on the appeal of Jethro Tull.
