This week, I talked with Dr. Shawn Cruzen about the spacesuits worn by the first American astronauts launched into space from U.S. soil in 9 years. Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley reportedly love the new suits.
We also talked about the increase in solar activity over the last weeks.
There's also some exciting exoplanet news as an Earth-like planet has been discovered that has a Sun-like star.
NASA's OSIRIS-REx is eyeing a landing site on asteroid Bennu and could be making first contact in late October.
And finally we chatted about ANOTHER major accomplishment for Kathy Sullivan who was the first American woman to spacewalk and is now the first woman to dive into the lowest known point on Earth.
