Ep. 5 - Interstellar: Deep Space Travel

The life-sustaining jewel of the Artemis program, Orion, is the only spacecraft rated for human deep space flight. Designed to meet the needs for a 3-day mission to the Moon or a 3-year journey to Mars, the Orion spacecraft is uniquely suited to protect astronauts in the most extreme conditions. We talk with Dr. Christine Edwards, the Deputy Exploration Architect at Lockheed Martin Space, for a behind-the-scenes peek into the engineering of the spacecraft that will take the first woman and next man to the Moon. We'll also explore what deep space travel might look like for humans in the future.
