Episode description

In the studio today is Dr Shane, Dr Linden, Dr Lauren and Dr Ray.

The team kick things off in the studio with some news. This week the topics range from Indigenous Australian stories in the sky, the evolution of Mars over time, the latest on Dark matter and being an Easter special; the health benefits of Chocolate.

Special Guests: Captain Gene Cernan - Former NASA Astronaut & Officially the last man to have walked on the moon.

And Also: Peter Aylward - President of Space Association Australia.

Captain Cernanwas good enough to be available for this pre-recorded interview and share some insight into his exciting life of space exploration. (A subject which was recently the basis of highly regarded film 'The Last man on the moon')

The Captainanswer questions not just from Dr Shane and Mr Aylward but also from some young students from Taylors Lakes. What was it like being a part of the Apollo programs in the 60's + 70's ? How big are craters? How dark was space? and many more.

----Remember,.. Science is everywhere!
