Maryland | America 250: Air and Space Power Story — Ep. 7

This week we travel to Maryland! It’s the birthplace of 8 astronauts and is home to the NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, which pioneered mission control functions early in the space race and still operates systems like the Hubble and the James Webb telescopes. Additionally, we also explore College Park Airport, where Army aviation literally first took flight under the tutelage of Wilbur Wright and subsequent aviators invented everything from cross country flying, the use of radios on aircraft, efforts to arm planes, and employ bombsights.      This episode is sponsored by PenFed.
