Podcast: Civics 101
Published On: Tue May 15 2018
Description: Space is big - like, insanely, incomprehensibly big - so it's understandable that NASA can seem divorced from the world of cabinet secretaries, White House press briefings, and presidential tweets. Amy Shira Teitel is the host of the YouTube channel Vintage Space and author of Breaking the Chains of Gravity: The Story of Spaceflight Before NASA. In this episode, she explains how despite its lofty aims, NASA is a lot more political than you might think.  CLICK HERE: Visit our website to donate to the podcast, sign up for our newsletter, get free educational materials, and more!
