Rose and Elliott continue trying to answer why space matters, this time looking at some of the things we have on Earth as a result of space exploration. In this episode they look at the materials and technologies that impact our lives from health to food and energy and why space provided the spur to discover them or at least bring it closer. They also talk about handheld vacuum cleaners.
