High Above Down Under | Episode 2: Living With the Stars

Описание: Follow two NASA rocket teams as they launch from Australia to study our nearest stellar neighbors – Alpha Centauri A & B – on a quest to understand how stars make the planets around them suitable for life.

In this episode, hear from a local Yolngu leader and learn what it takes to make a rocket range from scratch. (Spoiler: It’s not an easy task.)
