Join me as we speak with Jet Propulsion Engineer Eric Rice. Eric is the Mission Operations Manager (MOM) on NASA's SPHEREx Mission. SPHEREx stands for:
Spectro-Photometer for the History of the Universe, Epoch of Reionization and Ices Explorer
That's a mouth-full!
SPHEREx is an infrared space telescope that will collect data on more than 450 million galaxies along with more than 100 million stars in the Milky Way in order to explore the origins of the Universe.

Eric explains how this unique space telescope works and how it was built.

Can you believe Dr. Linda Spilker's first professional job was working for the Jet Propulsion Laboratory?! My first job was working at a vet office cleaning cages. I digress..... Join me as we speak to the world famous Dr. Linda Spilker. As the Lead Planetary Scientist on the CURRENT Voyager Mission (49 year strong!), she will update us on the twin Voyager's health and status then speak to us about the Cassini Mission and all it's relevant and important scientific findings. Dr. Spilker is a wealth of knowledge and such a fun and passionate person to sit and listen to. I have seen her on so many space documentaries over the years and when she showed up on the ZOOM call-I literally cried! She is sooooo cool and nice! You are gong to really love this interview!

Join me as we speak with this amazing researcher!

She works at the McMurdo Station on the Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica during the Spring and Summer. The day after she arrives she is at the "coms" helping Artemis 2 Astronauts and astronaut candidates get into the space suits all while she is conducting research on algae that she hopes she can use to produce oxygen, scrub CO2, and grow to eat on future Lunar and Martian habitats. I'm exhausted just thinking about that work week. But just listening to her speak about all her jobs with such passion and devotion will help you understand that this woman is perfect for al three jobs!

Oh, and on her free time, she like working on engines and riding motorcycles. So cool!
