Dr. Moriba J. Jah, Tuesday, 10-18-16 (7.20MB; download) -- We welcomed Dr. Moriba Jah to the program for a 62 minute discussion on the new field of Space Object Behavioral Sciences. Dr. Jah began by telling us space object behavior was all about. As you will hear, this field of study focuses on the movement of both natural and manmade objects in space, how they move, how they deteriorate, and how our culture influences these characteristics, specifically the manmade objects. As an example, he cited that US space objects typically are not designed to have their orbits or communications changed or to have maneuvers on a Friday, the weekend, holidays, and most Mondays. Space hardware from other nations does not typically follow this pattern. Our guest also talked about how space objects behave when their mission has been completed as compared to how they behaved during their mission. This study also includes unintended or unknown space object behavior. Our discussion was very interesting, it was new to me and I am sure it will be new to many of you.

Dr. Doug Plata, Sunday, 10-16-16 (14.90MB; download) -- Welcome to this 2 hour 10 minute program featuring Dr. Doug Plata. For this program, Doug shared is experiences lobbying members of congress for his lunar cots and cislunar development ideas. Doug was in Washington, DC for the Mars Society Conference but took time off to meet with a few members of the House. He described his experience, the reception he got, the level of interest staffers expressed over his space development ideas and more. We particularly focused on his experience with the staffer on Rep. Dana Rohrabacher's office. This led to a lengthy discussion with listeners as well, on the program of record and how congress sees economic efficiency as compared to Doug and other space advocates. SLS was the subject of this discussion. Later in the program Doug talked about his talks and demonstration at both the Mars Society Conference and AIAA Space 2016.

Gary Hudson, Friday, 10-14-16 (6.91MB; download) -- We welcomed back Gary Hudson of The Space Studies Institute to discuss their exotic propulsion initiative and their recent exotic propulsion workshop. Gary discussed Dr. Woodward's Mach Thruster work, Eagleworks Lab and their work on EmDrive (limited discussion as information from this lab is boycotted until the paper is published in December 2016), plus other forms of propsulion. We also talked about space settlement and why the SSI supports O'Neil like orbiting colonies rather than a settlement on a planet with a gravity well. Gary provided us with his opinions on the Musk Mars plans and the giant rocket, the Interplanetary Transport System. He said the acoustic signature for such a large rocket would be extremely challenging to handle. Read the full review of this program at www.thespaceshow.com for this date, Oct. 14, 2016.
