The Buf team is joined by Big Brain Smart Head™ and America's Favorite Rocket Scientist™ Bob Luzenski to discuss, of course, big rockets and the upcoming April 8th total solar eclipse.

Bob and the team discuss new information surrounding the Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly of Starship on November 18, 2023 and upcoming plans, hurdles, and whatnot for the return of Man to the moon.

"Make sure your thrust to weight ratio is properly accounted for the amount of payload that you have."

Additionally, Bob brings up the importance of being prepared for the eclipse on April 8th and provides some links to great weather websites for the eclipse and to places where one can get suitable eye protection for looking at the sun.  These links are below.
