Today In Space

Mick from TheSceneSnobs.com | SciFi, Star Trek, Star Wars & 'Picard' | People of Science TIS#192

Welcome to our segment called 'People of Science' where we breakdown the common misconception of what someone in 'science' is like. This time we're going into science-fiction, which plays a MAJOR role in telling the story of science to the masses. It's also a huge factor in why so many people get into science. I know it was for me... This week it was an honor to have Mick from theSceneSnobs.com on the show to discuss his passion for space and science fiction. We talked about his origins on what got him into podcasting, and of course we dove DEEP into sci-fi classics like Star Trek, Star Wars, and our thoughts on the new 'Picard' series that just wrapped up Season 1. FYI there are a lot of spoilers in the second half of this episode, but it was a great talk and I hope you enjoy! In life we make connections with people (more so in a life without pandemic) and I am very happy that I met Mary the Mommy on the NASAsocial trip for CRS-19. Which also lead to me meeting and talking to Mick. While quarantine and coronavirus lockdown is upon us - make the most of it! We're taking our own advice/medicine here on the podcast. And I'm very glad I did.

Look forward to more of these while (at the moment) we will be in quarantine for the entirety of April. It may not be face to face, but its human connection.
