06: The Changing Media Landscape
from The GEMMA Podcast Hosted by Gemini Observatory
In episode 6 of the GEMMA Podcast, GEMMA intern Chance Spencer interviews Joshua Chamot, Public Affairs Specialist for the National Science Foundation. They examine how the media landscape for space science has changed from the dot-com boom in the early 2000s to the decline of journalists with a science background around 2008. They also discuss the niche of passionate supporters astronomy and space sciences have captured compared to other sciences, how multi-messenger astronomy plays into the NSF’s Big 10 Ideas, and the success of the November 2019 GEMMA Summit.
