Do you consider yourself a pioneer? An explorer perhaps? Would you "go boldly where no one has gone before" - well, almost no one. And would you stay? With everything from the financial incentives of mining to contingency planning for problems here on Earth to creating a jumping off point to get to Mars, settling on the moon seems to be no longer a matter of "What IF", but rather "When will we?" As "Space Race 2.0" heats up not between governments as much as billionaires like Richard Branson, Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk, the expectation of many is that we will not only return to the moon in the not too distant future, but we will stay there. Alexandra Hall, the former Senior Director of Google's Lunar X-Prize blasts off with Teddy and Richard and shares everything she's learned about the possibilities, the challenges and the timelines for returning to the moon...and lets us know whether she'd take a one way ticket to settle on the moon.

(repeat) "The moon or bust” is now officially bust. No private company was able to meet the Lunar X Prize challenge, and arrange for a launch by the 2018 deadline. The $30 million award goes unclaimed, but the race to the moon is still on. Find out who wants to go and why this is not your parents' – or grandparents' – space race. With or without a cash incentive, private companies are still eyeing our cratered companion, hoping to set hardware down on its dusty surface. Meanwhile, while the U.S. waffles about a return to the moon, India and China are sending a second round of robots skyward. And a proposed orbiting laboratory – the Lunar Orbital Platform-Gateway – may literally put scientists over, and around, the moon. The moon continues to entice sci-fi writers, and Andy Weir's new novel describes a vibrant lunar colony. Its premise of colonists launched from Kenya is not entirely fiction: the nation is one of many in Africa with space programs. Guests: Andy Weir – Author of “The Martian” and, most recently, “Artemis” Allen Herbert – Vice President of Business Development and Strategy for NanoRacks, LLC and author of an article about emerging space programs in Africa Greg Schmidt – Deputy director of the Solar System Exploration Research Virtual Institute at NASA Ames Research Center Jason Crusan – NASA Director of Advanced Exploration Systems for Human Space Flight Learn more about your ad choices.

Nachdem Google vor einigen Jahren den Lunar X Prize ausgelobt hat, machten sich Teams rund um die Welt an die gestellte Herausforderung, einen Rover zum Mond zu schicken und von dort Live-Bildern zur Erde streamen zu lassen. Eines dieser Teams waren die Part Time Scientists in Berlin und nach Jahren harter Arbeit kommen sie ihrem Ziel immer näher. Voraussichtlich 2018 wird der Lander ALINA mit zwei Rovern an Bord den Weg zum Mond und dort zur Landestelle der Apollo-17-Mission antreten. Das komplett privat finanzierte Projekt wäre bei einem Erfolg vielleicht wegweisend für künftige Exploration des Monds und des Weltalls.
Max Parks joins the weekly Monday night science party to share his experience working at Moon Express, one of many companies around the world competing for the Google Lunar X Prize. The Lunar X Prize is a 30 million dollar award for the first private company to land a rover on the Moon, have it travel 500 yards, all while live streaming the journey back to viewers on Earth. Tune in to learn about what the future of space travel will look like, what minerals we will find on the Moon, and the possible future decline of the need of science communicators. (Hopefully not too soon!)
Bring your shovel, rake, and watering can- we're growing turnips... on the moon!
