SpaceX & Boeing make Progress, Voyager 2's Interstellar Research | TIS#171
from Today In Space Hosted by Alex G. Orphanos
On this week's episode we review some important progress in the Commercial Crew Program as both SpaceX and Boeing have had successful tests on their human rated spacecraft. This means the rest of this year will be busy with more testing of the Crew Dragon and CST-100 Starliner. We also review the general details on what Voyager 2 has found since it exited the Heliosphere of our Sun and entered interstellar space (not all of it is what we expected).
