För att åka till Mars måste vi först förstå hur man skjuter iväg en raket – och när vi väl är framme, kanske ta en helikoptertur över vår nya planet. I det här avsnittet tar vi oss an två stora tekniska utmaningar med Mars: att ta sig dit genom rymden, och att kunna flyga där.Innerballistikern Carl Stigner från Saab guidar oss genom vetenskapen om kastade kroppars rörelse – från krutladdningar till raketmotorer, fenor och spinn. Sen blir det NASA där rymdingenjören Tove Ågren berättar hur man får en helikopter att lyfta i Mars tunna atmosfär – och vad som kommer härnäst efter Ingenuity. Vi pratar om designtricks, misslyckade tester och skillnaden mellan att flyga på Titan och på Mars. Och vad är egentligen skillnaden mellan en drönare och en helikopter – i rymden?Har vi åkt till Mars än? är en populärvetenskaplig podd om rymden, framtiden och människans plats i universum. Med nyfikenhet och humor tar den sig an stora frågor: Hur långt har vi kommit i rymdforskningen? Vad krävs för att åka till Mars? Och varför är vi så fascinerade av den röda planeten? Programledarna intervjuar forskare, ingenjörer och astronauter, och förklarar allt från livets uppkomst till raketmotorer – begripligt och engagerande för alla som någon gång tittat upp mot himlen och undrat.Serien berättar inte bara om rymden – den använder rymden för att förstå vad det innebär att vara människa.Förutom ämnen som mörk materia, galaxer, ljusets hastighet, satelliter och odling av mat i rymden så har vi i tidigare avsnitt följt astronauten Marcus Wandts resa mot rymden och hans förberedelser inför uppdraget till ISS – från träning i Sverige och runtom i världen till hur det känns att stå på startplattan. Har vi åkt till Mars än? finns också som en juniorserie för mellanstadiet där barnens egna frågor står i centrum: Hur bygger man en bas på Mars? Vad döljer sig i ett svart hål? Och vad är solen gjord av? Serien har 20 avsnitt med tillhörande lärarhandledningar som gör vetenskapen tillgänglig och rolig.Har vi åkt till Mars än? görs på Beppo av Rundfunk Media i samarbete med Saab. Hosted by Ausha.

This episode marks the final CG Garage podcast under the Chaos umbrella. The next chapter of the show will launch under a new banner, continuing the conversations that explore the art, craft, and future of filmmaking. Armen Kevorkian joins Chris to reflect on his long career in visual effects, from his early start as an intern on Star Trek: Voyager and Deep Space Nine to becoming the president of Ingenuity Studios. He shares how mentorship in those formative years at Paramount shaped his career, his transition into supervising on shows like Invasion and The Flash, and the evolution of VFX in broadcast television, where tight deadlines and experimental techniques pushed his teams to innovate. Armen recalls being part of television milestones like scanning actors for digital doubles for the first time and watching the rise of superhero shows that paved the way for streaming-era ambitions. The conversation dives into how the industry has shifted in the past 20 years, from the challenges of working through COVID and adapting to remote workflows, to the rise of generalists and the growing role of AI tools in concepting, roto, and plate prep. Armen reflects on invisible effects, the hidden craft of making audiences believe something was always there, and how facilities must adapt as filmmakers experiment with leaner, bespoke VFX pipelines. He also shares his vision for Ingenuity Studios, their recent work on projects like Untamed and Weapons, and his excitement about building tighter partnerships with filmmakers from the earliest stages of production.
