Episode 83 - "Out of the country" (Brad Jolliff Rebroadcast)

We are teaching and traveling with the start of the semester. Since John has no solid cell phone signal at a conference in New Hampshire and Shannon is swimming in lecturing, we wanted to share one of our favorite interviews from this year!

This week a special guest takes us to the moon by talking about lunar rocks and meteorites! The moon turns out to be a fascinating place, but probably won’t break up like in Seveneves.
