Across the UK, across continental North America, at around the world, on the internet, by webcast,

and by podcast, my name is Howard Hughes, and this is the Unexplained.

That's the website.

Please put a hit on that website, no matter how you're hearing this show.

The special guest on this edition is somebody who's involved in a real-life moon mission
