A young engineer and his wife, moving to Denver, climb in and start talking shop: rotation programs, air systems for next-gen spacesuits, and why long missions need to “regenerate” oxygen instead of hauling endless tanks. We veer from Artemis timelines to the questions around the moon’s dark side, and how conspiracy stories thrive anywhere there’s wonder (and a little whiskey).
It’s a fast, friendly ride that touches big questions—What will it take to get humans to Mars? Who collaborates, who goes it alone, and how do budgets shape breakthroughs? From Houston test bays to Highland apartments, this one’s equal parts science, story, and the joy of meeting strangers in motion.
From the streets of Denver to your ears — welcome to the conversations that only happen in a Lyft.
