Ep 188: The Rocket Equation and CubeSats — A Lesson in Putting Things Into Orbit (and not trusting the interwebs, AI, and other such things...)
Manage episode 415465520 series 3335753
A simple observation from a photo on the interwebs leads to a question, and then lots of Bufnagely discussion, about space and orbits and rockets and garage projects, marketing, and much, much more!
Harry and Rafe are joined by not one but TWO (!) Big Brain Smart Heads™: Bob Luzenski, America's Favorite Rocket Scientist™, and Dr Brian Donahue, America's Favorite Time-Traveling Ham Radio Anesthesiologist™, as they try to figure out how to get the Buf into orbit (and other similarly important things). Along the way, we will all learn not to trust (a) what's on the interwebs, (b) Rafe's ability to look things up on the interwebs, (c) AI, and (d) products without sufficient technical oversight. (Oh, and we will also be reminded to commit only to projects that require the purchase of new tools.)
