Space Junk, Space Walks, Space Rescues + Helmet Drowning

Space Junk, Space Walks, Space Rescues + Helmet Drowning

There is speculation that in the near future, space junk pollution will become so extreme that we will no longer be able to safely launch rockets into orbit, land-locking mankind on Earth forever. Really? No Really! If space junk the size of a raindrop traveling at 17,000 miles an hour can cut through a half-inch solid aluminum plate like butter, what would it do to a space walking astronaut? Jason and Peter learn the horrific answer from their guest, former NASA astronaut Garrett Reisman who had an exceptionally close call with space junk during one of his 3 space walks. This episode of RnR also explores the pitfalls of surgery in space, the possibility that extraterrestrial life exists on Mars, what happens when other long-mission astronauts on the International Space Station leave the seat up or use your space-tooth brush… and why you need to know enough Russian to say, “Hey comrade, time to take a shower!” You can follow Garrett’s podcast, “2 Funny Astronauts” anywhere you get your podcasts.
