Derek Kief – Colonizing Mars, Gravitational Waves, and Other Fascinating Discoveries in the Stars

Derek Kief is an astronomer at H.R. MacMillan Space Centre, located in British Columbia, Canada. Both Connor and Roger sort of nerd out on this podcast with their guest, but it provides the listeners with some great knowledge as to what's out there―beyond our planet.
