Amy Shira Teitel is a historian and journalist who made a name for herself as a blogger and YouTube creator focusing on mid 20th-century history, specifically the space race with her YouTube channel, Vintage Space. But her interests go well beyond rockets and moon landings (she can read ancient Greek, which is insane). Today we talk about the frustrations of being an online creator, the dangers of being pigeonholed, and the amazing past and future of space travel. Her newest book, Fighting For Space is available in bookstores and online.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

When you are bound for the moon, there are thousands of “gee, glad we tested this” moments during any and all stages of space flight. If not, you've got some trouble. From NASA's early days to the modern era, space exploration has led to some of the most spectacular and public test failures. This week, the episode focuses on NASA's rocket test of the mid 20th century, including a few of NASA's big wins in history, and biggest losses. We also discuss the importance behind Sputnik's launch, new recent developments in private space travel, and why the inclusiveness of who we send to space is still very much a big issue. To help us, we welcome Amy Shira Teitel, author, space flight historian, and host of the YouTube series “The Vintage Space.”  Learn More About: Failure in testing is often called a failure of imagination. Learn how this is the case with the Apollo 13 and 11 missions. Engineers have had to get creative during space exploration - but using duct tape, a plastic bag, and cardboard to save lives might be one of the most prime examples of thinking quickly and adapting to meet the needs of the situation presently at hand.The Apollo 11 was on a descent to the moon in 1969 when a fuel light blinked on and signaled that The Eagle's Tank was nearly dry. How did testing and quick thinking play a role in this historical event? Eight windows failed tests during the course of the Apollo program, but none during missions. This is why space engineers must test, test again, and test repeatedly after that. Space exploration is a by-product of the Cold War. Sputnik was about the size of a microwave oven but struck fear and awe in Americans. Learn how the Space Race was on, and how America reacted to a closely guarded Soviet space program.As if the challenge of physics and engineering weren't enough, another barrier to human space flight was human prejudice. Just days before the mission, NASA canceled the women flight crew in 1961. Two decades would pass before Sally Ride would become the first woman to fly in space. Who were exactly the First Lady Astronaut Trainees, or the Mercury 13, and why is it so important to honor them to acknowledge NASA's push for inclusion in space and the progress we have made so far. The future of space exploration and tourism within private sectors, such as SpaceX and Firefly.  Resources Mentioned: NIJohnson Space CenterAmy Shira Teitel NASA Mercury 7 SpaceXFirefly

Space Time is a new podcast from Space Explored, part of the 9to5Mac Network. We had the chance to sit down with Amy Shira Teitel from The Vintage Space a few weeks ago to discuss her latest book Fighting for Space: Two Pilots and Their Historic Battle for Female Spaceflight. The historical deep dive follows Jackie Cochran and Jerrie Cobb, two female pilot pioneers who came up in the 1950s when NASA was turning test pilots into the first astronauts.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0y1CeYvezY Host: Fraser Cain ( @fcain )Special Guest: We are pleased to once again welcome our good friend Amy Shira Teitel back to the WSH to chat about her most recent labor of love, her new book Fighting for Space which tells the story of female pilots who dreamed of being the first American woman in space.   Amy is no stranger to the WSH, and long time viewers will remember back to the time when she was a regular contributor to the show. Amy's science writing career began with her blog Vintage Space in which she wrote about spaceflight history. Her first book was Breaking the Chains of Gravity (2015) which she followed up with Apollo Pilot in 2016.   Perhaps one of the more entertaining and fun things Amy was known for is her ""Live Tweeting"" recreations of historic space flights on their various anniversaries throughout the year. Amy earned a Bachelor's degree in History of Science and Technology and Classics (U. of King's College and Dalhousie University) and a Master's degree in Science and Technology Studies (York University).   Learn more about Fighting For Space, including where to get your own copy, by visitinghttp://www.amyshirateitel.com/fightin...

Paul is joined by Amy Shira Teitel, a spaceflight historian, author, and public speaker who, much like her subjects, is one of the few academically trained young women in her field. Amy came to talk about her new book Fighting for Space: Two Pilots and Their Historic Battle for Female Spaceflight. Amy has written for more than two dozen websites including the BBC and Time Magazine online, earned a Group Achievement Award from NASA as part of the New Horizons Mission to Pluto team, and appears frequently as an expert interviewee on a number of TV shows and documentaries. She also maintains her blog, The Vintage Space, and its companion YouTube channel.

Amy Shira Teitel talks about Apollo and the community of people who are deeply attached to space history. Teitel is a spaceflight historian and the creator of the YouTube Channel, Vintage Space. She is also the author of Breaking the Chains of Gravity: The Story of Spaceflight Before NASA (Bloomsbury, 2016) and Apollo Pilot: The Memory of Astronaut Don Eisele (University of Nebraska Press, 2017). NASA's history is a familiar story, culminating with the agency successfully landing men on the moon in 1969, but its prehistory is an important and rarely told tale. Breaking the Chains of Gravity looks at the evolving roots of America's space program--the scientific advances, the personalities, and the rivalries between the various arms of the United States military. America's space agency drew together some of the best minds the non-Soviet world had to offer. The National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics and the U.S. Air Force, meanwhile, brought rocket technology into the world of manned flight. The road to NASA and successful spaceflight was paved by fascinating stories and characters. At the end of World War II, Wernher von Braun escaped Nazi Germany and came to America where he began developing missiles for the United States Army. Ten years after he created the V-2 missile, his Jupiter rocket was the only one capable of launching a satellite into orbit. NACA test pilots like Neil Armstrong flew cutting-edge aircraft in the thin upper atmosphere while Air Force pilots rode to the fringes of space in balloons to see how humans handled radiation at high altitude. After the Soviet launch of Sputnik in 1957, getting a man in space suddenly became a national imperative, leading President Dwight D. Eisenhower to pull various pieces together to create the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Michael F. Robinson is professor of history at Hillyer College, University of Hartford. He's the author of The Coldest Crucible: Arctic Exploration and American Culture (University of Chicago Press, 2006) and The Lost White Tribe: Scientists, Explorers, and the Theory that Changed a Continent (Oxford University Press, 2016).

Space is big - like, insanely, incomprehensibly big - so it's understandable that NASA can seem divorced from the world of cabinet secretaries, White House press briefings, and presidential tweets. Amy Shira Teitel is the host of the YouTube channel Vintage Space and author of Breaking the Chains of Gravity: The Story of Spaceflight Before NASA. In this episode, she explains how despite its lofty aims, NASA is a lot more political than you might think. 

How much do you know about space flight? I'm talking pre 1975. Before man walked on the moon, before the space race ended and before a heap of regulation and safety measures we associate with space flight today. Vintage space is Amy Shira Teitel's passion. She digs out historic gems about space flight in the 50's and 60's and shares some of them with us in this episode.
