_HOT_ Download Congratulations By Midnight Crew
Laveta Nachman
I have been a Navy SEAL for 36 years. But it all began when I left UT for Basic SEAL training in Coronado, California. Basic SEAL training is six months of long torturous runs in the soft sand, midnight swims in the cold water off San Diego, obstacles courses, unending calisthenics, days without sleep and always being cold, wet and miserable. It is six months of being constantly harrassed by professionally trained warriors who seek to find the weak of mind and body and eliminate them from ever becoming a Navy SEAL.
The space station isoccupied by the Expedition 21 crew of commanderFrank De Winne, Russian cosmonauts Roman Romanenko and Maxim Suraev,Canadian astronaut Robert Thirsk and NASA astronauts Jeff Williams an NicoleStott.
Chris: We sure appreciate that, sir. It's obviously been our honor to be just a small part of this. We have to give credit to SpaceX, the Commercial Crew Program, and of course, NASA. It's great to get the United States back in the crewed launch business. We're just really glad to be on board this magnificent complex.
Mat Kaplan: All right, Ed. Thank you. I'm very glad that I was able to get you back for this. Again, congratulations to you and the team that put together this model and has come out with these new data and conclusions. We'll have lots of great links to this work on this week's show page at Planetary.org/Radio. Ed, live long and keep trekking.
Bruce Betts: It was, but it'll be coming in the morning sky shortly because it's between us and the sun right now, and it'll be popping out on the other side, which puts it in the morning sky, but not quite yet. But in the middle of the night, taken over are Jupiter and Saturn, rising around 11:00, midnight, depending on where you are. They will be near the moon on June 7th, and 8th, it'll make a lovely triplet, Jupiter being the much brighter of the Jupiter-Saturn pair. A couple hours later, so quite middle of the night, Mars rises in the east, and it's getting bright. So it's now in negative magnitudes for those who play the astronomical apparent magnitude game, meaning it's brighter than the star Vega. It'll keep brightening through its opposition in October.
Mat Kaplan: John, congratulations, you have one a copy of Bruce's brand new book that we mentioned from Rockridge Press, My First Book of Planets, all about the solar system for kids. It's a great first book, introduction to the solar system and astronomy for that matter. It's available now I think, right, as an e-book.
