Today, let's dive into the Mars mission Part 1. It's not likely going to be a direct trip from Earth — it'll probably launch from the Moon. We'll explore the costs, why that approach is more effective, and dig into some bigger questions: We know there's life on Mars — because we put it there. But why did it fade out? And when it comes to Earth, could life here have started the same way — with someone else planting cells?

Join myself, Gonzalo Martin and the wonderful Barbara Vincentelli who both work at the Euopean Space Agency.  In this episode we decided to cover the relation between art and space reaching back before modern technology come into existence. Icluding a feature all about Giotto Di Bondone's painting,  Mexican artist Nahum's work who combines outer space technologies, illusionism, and hypnosis to create alternative and extreme perspectives of human experience and much more.  Space art is the term for a genre of modern artistic expression that strives to show the wonders of the Universe. Like other genres, space art has many facets and encompasses realism, impressionism, hardware art, sculpture, and abstract imagery. Though artists have been making art with astronomical elements for a long time, space are has begun only when humanity gained the ability to look off our world and artistically depicted what we see out there. In some cases, artists who consider themselves space artists use more than illustration and painting to communicate scientific discoveries or works depicting space, some have had the opportunity to work directly with space flight technology and scientists in attempts to expand the arts, humanities, and cultural expression relative to space exploration.
