RE: SPACE PLACE

A PR-working FrontBurnervian notes that KERA’s Think (the TV version) is all over the space conference. She passes along the program notes for the 6/1 episode:

We’ll talk about shielding the Earth from space with Apollo 9 astronaut Rusty Schweickart, who now serves as Chairman of the Board of the B612 Foundation. The foundation champions the protection of Earth from future asteroid impacts.

That episode will also feature an interview with my friend Nicole Small to talk about the Dallas Museum of Nature and Science. I doubt Krys Boyd asked Small how to protect the planet from asteroids, but I bet she could come up with an answer. (She = smart.)
