A Special Note To Listeners:  There was a streaming glitch for the approximately 11 minutes before listener emails reported the problem.  I restarted the streaming servers  and picked up the interview where we left off.  For the archives, I stripped in a backup recording of those first 11 minutes from an SD chip that records separate from the servers.  While the audio was not as good as the main program audio, all of the program is available as nothing was lost.

Guests: John Batchelor, Eric Berger, Dr. David Livingston.  Topics:  NASA study awards for human lunar landers as part of the Artemis Return To The Moon Program.
