Houston, we have a podcast.

Welcome to the official podcast of the NASA Johnson Space Center, episode 29,

The National Lab in Space.

I'm Gary Jordan and I'll be your host today.

So this is the podcast where we bring in the experts, NASA scientists,

astronauts, sometimes some of our partners. We bring them right here on the show to

tell you all the cool stuff about what's going on here at NASA. So today

we're talking about the section of the International Space Station that's designated as a U.S. National Laboratory.

We're talking with Patrick O'Neill, the marketing and communications manager at the Center for Advancement of Science in Space or Kasis.

We had a great discussion about what it means to be a U.S. national lab,

how Kasis is bringing research from companies research institutions

and government agencies to the space station

and the things we're learning that benefit humankind. So with no further delay

let's go light speed and jump right ahead to our talk with Mr. Patrick O'Neill.

Enjoy. right ahead to our talk with Mr. Patrick O'Neill.
