Summary

Do other NASA employees get FOMO watching the Artemis II mission? Our fourth Maher sister today is literal NASA rocket scientist and CEO Aisha Bowe. She breaks down the latest Artemis II mission around the moon, freaky interns stealing moon rocks, and funding her own seat on the first all-female-crewed spaceflight, Blue Origin. She also tells us about deciding how to do her hair and makeup for space (something she and Ilona connect on), and the amazing hunky home service she swears by. Ilona sells Aisha on classic literature, and Liv reveals that she's TERRIFIED of space. Support the show by supporting our sponsors!
