Broadcast 4063 Dr. Matt Shindell

Please note that several times during this interview we lost the phone audio with our guest so you will hear several seconds of dead air.  The connection remained solid, it was an audio problem likely due to number forwarding which I believe was in use with the guest phone line. I apologize for this inconvenience.

Guest:  Dr. Matt Shindell; Topics:  We discussed Matt's new book, "For The Love Of Mars, a Human History." Our discussion included the human evolution timeline, ancients and Mars, Mars cultural influences across time and our modern look at Mars.

Guest: Dr. Michael Neufeld was the guest for this Easter Sunday Space Show program. Dr. Neufeld is the chair of the Space History Division of the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum and author of the biography, "Von Braun: Dreamer of Space/Engineer of War." As today's program is on what would have been the 96th birthday of Von Braun, having a discussion on his life was most appropriate. We discussed Von Braun's Nazi past and Dr.Neufeld was clearing up myths and rumors, providing us with factual history regarding Von Braun.
