Nazis in Space, in space, this week on planetary radio.

Welcome, I'm Mad Kaplan of the Planetary Society, with more of the human adventure across our solar system

and beyond.

Coming to you on our new weekly release day.

Nazis in space, how's that for a provocative teaser line? We'll go into a more eccentric

orbit than usual as we talk with author and space historian Rod Pyle about his

latest book that is chock full of stranger than fiction stories about the space age.

NASA has taken the first tentative step toward a lander on Jupiter's moon Europa.

Bill Nye will tell us why he thinks it's a step in the right direction.

We've got a beautiful brand new home page to show off.

Scroll down and you'll find the new up front home of planetary radio with a player built right in.

Directly above our slot are links to our top three space stories and another link that will take you to all of the other great work by our staff and freelance contributors.
