Polymath World # Episode 15 - Lieutenant Colonel Charles Gemar
NASA ASTRONAUT
Lieutenant Colonel Charles Gemar is a former NASA astronaut who flew on 3 missions on the Space Shuttle. A former army pilot and engineer, he graduated from the NASA astronaut class of 1986 after the Challenger disaster. After serving in several roles including CAPCOM, he flew on STS-38 in 1990, STS-48 in 1991, and finally STS-62 in 1994. He spent 24 days in space across his 3 missions and took on several unusual science programs during those, including molecular biology. He flew on Columbia, Discovery and Atlantis and we enjoy getting into the dynamics of his missions as well as his pre- and post-NASA career. He has flown one of the highest orbits of the shuttle and the lowest.
I hope you enjoy this fascinating chat with an extraordinary astronaut working during one of the most interesting times in spaceflight history.
