In this week’s episode, Bill and Chuck discuss the practicality of becoming a tourist in space. Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk and a host of others want to get us there but will it really be worth it? We also celebrate the 50th anniversary of the movie 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY and chat about whether the science in the movie is grounded in reality or just a bunch of poppycock. Finally, a listener wants to know why we have yet to explore the moons of Jupiter and Saturn.
