Mars vs. Venus Mission: Interplanetary

    • Science

Mars and Venus are our two nearest planetary neighbors, named after the god of war and the goddess of love, respectively. We have rovers on Mars and new missions planned for Venus. But where should we focus most of our attention? In this episode, we’re out to settle this question once and for all. It’s a Planetary Smackdown. Professional Martian Tanya Harrison of Planet Labs is in the ring for Mars, and Joe O’Roarke, planetary scientist and 2nd rock from the sun advocate, is championing Venus. Two enter. Only one will leave. Place your bets! Also, Cady returns to the ISS and Andrew tries out a new segment: Sounds of Ovaltine.
This week’s Sounds of Space was created by Domenico Vicinaza of GÉANT. Check out the description here.
