Hey, I'm Derrick Pitts, and this is my brand new podcast, The Curious Cosmos.
Speaker:Join me for a behind-the-scenes tour of space with the people who devote their
Speaker:lives to it, exploring everything from cutting-edge science.
Speaker:There are areas that are brand spanking new, like gravitational wave astronomy.
Speaker:To personal experiences.
Speaker:In orbit, flying in and around Aurora, I
Speaker:remember seeing these blobs of glowing light.
Speaker:And so much more.
Speaker:It was basically a training camera for
Speaker:astronauts to help them learn how to dock with a space toilet.
Speaker:The original term, UFO, actually never meant alien.
Speaker:It just stood for an object in the sky that couldn't be identified.
Speaker:And we will always be questioning what else is there?
Speaker:So be sure to subscribe.
Speaker:New episodes will air every Tuesday throughout the fall.
Speaker:And it really is going to be, you know I have to say it, out of this world!
