Program Audio:
Welcome back after the Carnival holidays, we trust that everyone got back safely. To get us underway after the break, Carlos Rogers our astronomy enthusiast joins me in the last hour today. We have great fun discussing all the latest developments in space. Needless to say the orbiting Tesla and the Space X Heavy lift get a fair share of the discussion. The heavy lift rocket is apparently capable of a payload equivalent of five London Buses in low orbit, which will be great for those that cannot afford a Tesla.
As we were not on air yesterday and today being Canada Flag day we have for you today the Canada Report from Michael up in the Great White North….
