When you think of an ocean, Earth is probably what comes to mind. But our planet isn’t necessarily the only world with water. NASA notes that moons, dwarf planets and comets can sustain water in various forms, from ice to water vapor. There is a lot of excitement about moons that orbit Jupiter and Saturn, since some of these worlds potentially have water that exists in a liquid state. Last week I had the opportunity to speak with Melissa Ugelow about her work on Titan, so download this episode and learn about some of the incredible work being done to explore the moons in our outer solar system.

Correction- I erroneously added Stu Roosa to the crew of Apollo 17. The Command Module Pilot for this mission was Ron Evans. I had a picture of Roosa on my display while recording and switched up their names. Check out Facebook tomorrow for an unusual picture of the Apollo 14 astronaut. I'm back from a mini-hiatus. Life and work got the best of my schedule, but I'm working to get back on track. Weekly space history episodes are starting back up now!

I've got a programming note. I've looked at when episodes are downloaded each day and have come up with a new release schedule. During the week, episodes will be out at the usual 3ish a.m. release time Monday-Friday. That way all of you can catch the latest show during your morning commutes. Weekend episodes will be out later, depending on how crazy life has been on my end. For instance, today’s episode is out later because I burned my hand with bacon grease while cooking. I know, I’m super talented. Thanks to everyone that's subscribed to the podcast. If you could do me a favor and leave a review for the podcast, I'd appreciate it!

I'm quoting from Memory Alpha here: "As mirror Sulu is the security chief as well as the helmsman, George Takei wears a red uniform in this episode – since he normally wore gold, and had worn science blue as an astrophysicist in "Where No Man Has Gone Before", this makes Takei the first Trek actor to wear all three uniform colors."

A quick update on the timeline for Cassini’s end of mission. At 3:58pm Eastern Daylight Time, Cassini will take the final images with its camera. A short time later, the spacecraft will turn towards Earth, starting a downlink on the Deep Space Network that will last until the end of mission. I will share links to watch the live stream of the end of mission tomorrow morning, so watch Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram for that link. I will also post the link here in the show notes.

Episode Links: Definitely check out the videos that are available at the links below. The video of SpaceX landing the Falcon 9 for a second time after successfully launching that rocket is astounding. For a sense of scale, the rocket you see landing is about as tall as a 14 story building.

Hey, everyone two pieces of history I’m going to cover today. First, Apollo 10 launched 48 years ago on this day in 1969. Also, India became the sixth country to demonstrate nuclear weapons capabilities when they tested their first nuclear device on May 18th, 1974, so I'm going to talk a little about space based nuclear surveilance satellites. https://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/heasarc/missions/vela5a.html https://science.ksc.nasa.gov/facilities/tour.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SmilingBuddha#citenote-1
On May 17th, 1974 the first Synchronous Meteorological Satellite or SMS-1 was launched on a Delta 2000 series rocket. The SMS-1 and SMS-2 satellites were the first purpose-built geostationary weather satellites ever launched and these missions started a long lineage that leads to the present day GOES missions. http://www.space.com/34779-goes-r-weather-satellite-launched-atop-atlas-v-rocket-video.html https://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/nmc/spacecraftDisplay.do?id=1974-033A

54 years ago today, American astronaut Gordon Cooper lifted off on what was the last Project Mercury mission. Today I cover a little of the history of that launch plus I cover some news from a SpaceX launch earlier today. On the next episode I will be looking at what Gordo did during the last Mercury mission, and talk a little about the new Discovery Channel series "Cooper's Treasure"
