Have you ever thought about what it would be like to go to space? Perhaps you’ve had dreams of touring the galaxy before looping back to Earth. Or maybe you’ve thought about leaving Earth for good to live on another planet. These thoughts and dreams, although they’ve surely existed for hundreds of years, are now closer to reality than most of us may think. 

In this episode, Ed Bernardon, inspired by his conversation with Jane Poynter, mulls over the rapidly changing face of mobility. Jane, of course, is the CEO of Space Perspective, a company offering rides to Earth’s stratosphere in their custom-made spaceship for paying customers and scientists/researchers. Pulling from key parts of his initial interview with Jane, Ed discusses topics like the overview effect, life on Mars, and how the ability for every-day folk to purchase a ticket to space will end up changing the commercial travel industry.
