Informative, understandable, quick
This podcast covers science as it pertains to aerospace field. It gets right to what you want to learn and explains it well. I’m no aerospace engineer but I've understood every episode so far. I love the 90-second format.
Great Podcast!
Where has this gem been hiding? If I had time, I would listen to all of them. I'm glad to see so many, I can get my daily dose of DN every day. Very informative and exciting. I really had no idea NASA is involved with so many aspects of aviation, space, technology and day-to-day living. Perfect length and a good host. I was able to see Jennifer on your website. She sounds fab. Keep it up, and when can I hear DN in Houston! Can't wait. G.G. Livingston.
