This week we're doing space again! We talk about the physiology of astronauts, how space takes an impact on the human body and Aimie talks on some wonderful research about understanding the possible environmental development of young mars. We're currently both in self-isolation and so we had to make do with limited equipment. We apologise for the poor audio quality. However, there are some random science rants half-way through. Enjoy!
