By 2024, NASA will launch the Artemis mission to explore more of the surface of the moon than ever before. On this week's show, we speak with NASA rocket scientist, Derek Dalle, about what it takes to execute a launch like this. Discussing the complex computing required to simulate every step of the mission, Derek tells us about how NASA is engineers are preparing for a safe and successful spaceflight that will land two astronauts on the moon's South Pole, which we know to have water.

Earlier in the show, we welcome a UBC engineering professor to discuss how blockchain technology can help us distribute the COVID-19 vaccine safely given its strict temperature requirements.
