A brand-new inspirational space podcast featuring Astronauts from different generations comparing notes on everything from their moment of selection, training, mission, and legacy.
Listen to this exclusive trailer featuring conversations from the first two episodes:
1. Dr. Kathy Sullivan, a three-time NASA astronaut and the first American woman to walk in space speaks with Christina Koch, a serving NASA astronaut set to be the first woman to reach the moon.
2. General Charles F. Bolden, a four-time NASA astronaut, and the first black NASA administrator, speaks with Victor Glover, a serving NASA astronaut set to be the first black man to reach the moon.
No one ever forgets the moment they get the call, the phone call that changes everything, the call from NASA.
Christina Koch [:
She said, we wanna invite you to come to Houston and join the astronaut corps.
Charlie Bolden [:
He said, you still wanna be an astronaut?
Victor Glover [:
She says, how would you like to move to Houston and start astronaut candidate training?
Kathy Sullivan [:
That call, to become an astronaut and perhaps have the chance to leave this planet and take part in exploration beyond everything you know.
Christina Koch [:
That just stops me in my tracks. Took me a while to process.
Victor Glover [:
On cloud 9, and I don't remember a whole lot about the rest of this conversation.
Charlie Bolden [:
I mean I was stunned, and I just stopped for a moment and, and I said... "Yes sir I do. When, when do I need to be there?
