The Twin Programs - From Apollo to Artemis

The Fascinating Tardigrade

Found living all around the world, the little tardigrade can survive some pretty extreme environments. But how is it able to live in a vast range of environments, especially extreme ones? And what could these mechanisms for survival mean for other areas of research like medicine and astrobiology? On this week's episode, host Allison Lamoureux dives into the world of the tardigrade - how it survives these extremes and the potential research applications it has for other science disciplines.

The Twin Programs - From Apollo to Artemis

It's been over 50 years since humans have set foot on the moon, and NASA is looking to return astronauts there by the end of this decade with the Artemis program. But what was the path to get astronauts onto the moon? And where are we going after Artemis? On this week's episode, host Allison Lamoureux provides a brief history on how NASA landed on the moon, what they did after Apollo, what Artemis is, and where we are going next.
