On April 16th, 2022 Your Radio Doctor host Dr. Marianne Ritchie took a trip to Space – The Next Frontier with 4 wonderful guests! 

On April 8, history was made when the company called Axiom Space successfully launched the first commercial mission to the International Space Station. All four space travelers were private citizens. 

Listen to our show now to meet our guests, three physician-scientists from Thomas Jefferson University who were chosen to send experiments as part of this Ax-1 mission.
