Houston, we have a podcast. Welcome to the official podcast of the NASA Johnson Space Center,

episode 3, Landing from Space. I'm Gary Jordan and I'll be your host today. So on this

podcast we bring in the experts, NASA scientists, engineers, astronauts, pretty much

all the folks that have the coolest information, the stuff you really want to know, right on the

show to tell you about everything NASA, everything from extraterrestrial dirt to the unknown parts of the universe.

So today we're talking Landing from Space with Dr. John Charles.

He's the chief scientist for the NASA Human Research Program here at the NASA Johnson

Space Center in Houston, Texas.

And we talked about the more human side of space.

Specifically, what happens to the human body in the microgravity environment and what that means

for adjusting to life back on Earth,

even on other planets like Mars.

I also had the chance to catch NASA astronaut Shane Kimbrough

just two days after landing from a 173 day mission aboard the International Space Station

and he gave a firsthand experience of what it feels like to adjust back to Earth's

environment after living in space for that long. So with no further delay let's go a

light speed and jump right ahead to our talk with Dr. John Charles.

And then NASA astronaut Shame Kim Grogrow.

Enjoy. T-minus Minus I second, county.

Mark.

A long,

Monseki mid-life sir, for the red. Here she goes. Isn't we? I'm a long as we have a button.
