Acerca de esta escucha
More than half a century after humans first walked on the Moon, exciting new space adventures are in the works. Thanks to major advances in rocketry, robotics, and other space technologies, humanity is on the verge of returning to the Moon, exploring Mars, building permanent orbiting space stations, expanding space tourism, and pushing the boundaries of exploration throughout the solar system and beyond. The Future of Space Exploration explores these exciting developments in 12 half-hour episodes, hosted by aerospace engineer and executive Dr. Ariel Ekblaw. She is joined by experts from diverse space-related fields, each offering unique insights on this greatest of all adventures.
Topics include NASA’s Artemis program for a sustained human presence on the Moon, the challenge of a roundtrip mission to Mars, the next generation of space stations, the future of space tourism, and cutting-edge advances in spacesuits, radiation protection, robotic assistants, and in-space living—including more comfortable crew quarters and better food.
By the end of this course, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the challenges, innovations, and possibilities of space exploration—and maybe even be inspired to take part in it yourself!

What is it about Stoicism that Marcus found so important then, and that millions find relevant today? In the 12 fascinating lectures of Books That Matter: Meditations, professor Massimo Pigliucci explores the questions Marcus believed were crucial to address in a life of value, the answers he proposed, and the many ways in which you can use Stoic philosophy. While Meditations was originally written for an audience of just one, what Marcus wanted to examine certainly still applies to us today. What exactly should we be mindful of in this life?

The Mediterranean is one of the great wellsprings of human civilization. Central to the region’s history are the splendorous cities that flowered around the region—bases of power that saw innovation, commerce, expansion, and the building of great empires.

What is Western Civilization? According to Professor Noble, it is "much more than human and political geography," encompassing myriad forms of political and institutional structures - from monarchies to participatory republics - and its own traditions of political discourse. It involves choices about who gets to participate in any given society and the ways in which societies have resolved the tension between individual self-interest and the common good.

In those great battles, those streams ran red with blood-and the United States was truly born.
