Space Rocket History Archive

Incredibly researched and presented. You Sir, are a fantastic story teller and I very much enjoy each episode. Thank you!!!!

IMike’s thoughtful and deliberate articulation of one of the most important chain of events in history is a must for anyone with interest in history, engineering, politics, and of course, space! I savor each episode. Here is what to expect: Mike masterfully weaves the tale of two superpowers trying to prove ideological superiority through technical innovations. They podcast follows the progress of East and West in a timeline form—private industry vs state sponsorship. He does not take sides and honors the visionaries and trailblazers on both sides who took risks, gave their lives, and met the challenges of their time. He provides a great mix of engineering challenges and their solutions. I’m on my 200th episode and am looking forward to the details of the Apollo 11 story! P S. The $5 per month I contribute is the best value in content I know of. Thank you for all the time you spend to research and produce what I consider to be the best podcast series of all time. I wish Mike and Mrs SRH the very best.

I’m a fan of this podcast, but my only issue is that Mr. Annis insists on only using metric system units in his descriptions. If you grew up with NASA, everything, and I mean everything, is in Imperial units. It’s frustrating as I try to do quick math and continue to pay attention. Other than that, it’s amazing. A must listen!

As a child born in the early fifties, I remember the events. However I never knew the “behind the scenes “ history. I am truly enjoying this podcast.
