Welcome to another installment of the People of Science where we breakdown the common misconception of what someone in science is like. This week our honored guest is Zac Hall, lead editor of 9to5mac.com and writing for his new website SpaceExplored.com We originally met at the NASA Social event for the SpaceX CRS-19 mission in December of 2019.

Zac discussed his path into space from a distant interest to a full blown lifestyle after experiencing his first rocket launch (like myself) at the NASA Social event in December 2019 for the SpaceX CRS-19 launch. He attended the State of NASA social, met Administrator Jim Bridenstein, saw the SLS Core Stage on the test stand, and then watched CRS-20 and Starlink 6 launch in person. - I think he's got the space-bug! 

Zac and I could have talked about space for another 2 or three hours, and we will be talking again around the May 27 Crew Launch from Kennedy Space Center. But we close out this episode discussing where NASA history and future, as well as some thought towards space tourism and the commercialization of the Moon, and what that means with the current administration in charge.
