A Sronomycast episode 449 robots in space.

Welcome to a Sronomycast for weekly facts based journey through the cosmos, where we help

you understand not only what we know but how we know what we know.

My name is Fraser Kane and I'm the publisher of the universe today with me as always Dr.

Palmolegue, the director of technology and citizen science at the Astronomical Society

of the Pacific and the director of CosmoQuest.

Hey, Palmo, how you doing?

I'm doing well.

How are you doing, Fraser?

I'm doing really well.

I mentioned just before the show the weather finally turned and this horrible, horrible

winter endless wet spring has wrapped up and now we're moving into the warm part, the

day the flowers and the being outside and not wishing you were in Costa Rica.

These days are here.

It feels great.

Yeah, we're still like soaking flooding all of that stuff here, but at least it stopped

raining.

We haven't dried out, but it stopped raining.

I hope all of you out there who have homes near levees, who have homes near dams, who

have homes in all of the different flood plains out there have everything you care about

including yourselves above the high water line.

I know our basements is pretty flooded, but that's all we have.
