In this episode discuss the (unfortunate) origins of space medicine. We also discuss the differences between a space environment and the Earth environment, as well as the effects these differences have on the human body. We also talk about the measures astronauts have to take in order to minimize damage on the body. Lastly, we talk about what's keeping us from exploring the deep space and also the contributions space medicine has had on earth medicine.The image represents the first astronaut class introduced by NASA on April 9, 1959.

This week's guest is out of this world... literally.  She's been to space!     Today we're talking about leadership, the future, and overcoming obstacles with Dr. Janet Kavandi, the Director of NASA's John H. Glenn Research Center.  Prior to her role at the Glenn Research Center, Dr. Kavandi was the Director of Flight Crew Operations at the NASA Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas.  She was selected as a NASA astronaut in December 1994 as a member of the fifteenth class of U.S. astronauts.  She is a veteran of three space flights where she logged more than 33 days in space, traveling more than 13.1 million miles in 535 Earth orbits.   HOLY SMOKES!!!   I had an absolute blast nerding out over space travel and the future of our planet, and I hope you do too.     To learn more about NASA and the amazing research Dr. Kavandi's team is conducting, head over to nasa.gov.   Dr. Kavandi's NASA Bio: https://www.nasa.gov/content/biography-janet-l-kavandi-dr       Photo Credit: Gus Chan / The Plain Dealer

Stand near the John Glenn exhibit. John H. Glenn Jr. was born in Cambridge and grew up in New Concord. In his long aviation career, he flew with the U.S. Marines and the U.S. Air Force, set a speed record and shot down enemy aircraft. But he is best known as the first American to orbit the earth and, later in life, as the oldest person to fly in space. During the Korean War, Glenn was one of a handful of Marines selected to fly USAF F-86 Sabre jets in a pilot exchange program. Glenn shot down three North Korean MiG-15 fighters and soon became known as the “MiG Mad Marine.” Following the war, Glenn was called the first “supersonic Marine” when he set a speed record flying a Chance Vought F8U Crusader coast-to-coast across the United States. In April 1959 he was selected as one of the original seven Project Mercury astronauts. On Feb. 20, 1962, Glenn piloted the Mercury- Atlas 6 “Friendship 7” spacecraft on the first manned orbital mission of the United States. Launched from Kennedy Space Center, Florida, he completed a successful three-orbit mission around the Earth. On Oct. 29, 1998, the first American to orbit the Earth made history again. Glenn became the oldest man to fly in space by serving as a payload specialist on STS-95 aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery. Glenn spent most of his time in space participating in investigations on the aging process. Scientists recognize several parallels between the effects of spaceflight on the human body and the natural changes that take place as a person ages. Glenn also served as U.S. Senator from Ohio for four terms.
