The Curiosity Squad Episode 38 – Solstice, Clinical Trials, Lunar Impacts

In this episode of the Curiosity Squad, host Alex Hall gets the facts on clinical trials and  finds out how we’ll watch out for space debris when we’re building moon bases! She also reports on a story from the UK about a major new discovery near Stonehenge relating to the summer solstice. In preparation for next weeks special episode all about propulsion, we get the overview of the UAH propulsion center.
