STP145 - Space and The Media - The Past, Present and Future

This week we cover a topic given to us by our Patreon subscriber Don Erwin: 

Covering space in the present: the various ways space is covered today from space agencies' and private companies' messaging and media relations, to broadcasting networks, to independent folks (YouTubers), and podcasters. How well is each reaching various audiences? What will the landscape of space coverage look like in the future?

Giles is a singer/songwriter from London, England who has always had a passion for space flight. Since his early years he’s been looking skyward and though he ended up wielding a guitar for a living, space exploration is alway on his mind and one of his most popular songs is about astronaut Gene Cernan, ‘The Last Man On The Moon’.
