Episode Description

In the last six months, we have heard lots of discussions on returning to the moon. Why is it that important to return to the moon? How is the US government, NASA, commercial companies (i.e. Space X, Boeing, and others) and other countries getting ready for space exploration? What are some of the key finding going to the Moon that must be achieved before we go to Mars? How do we move forward in US Space adventure commercially, government, and other international contributions? Join me and my guess Mr. Mike Gargan (a space enthusiast) to discuss the need to travel to the moon, the technology needed that must be achieved to make this mission a reality. How are the US commercial companies expanding their roles in space? At the same time, we will discuss what is new in science, innovation, and technology which continues to inspire the exploration of space? Please join us on Tuesdays at 12noon EST the T3 show discusses “Space--Why return to the Moon?”

Today, Tomorrow’s Technologies

Archives Available on VoiceAmerica Variety Channel

Today, Tomorrow’s Technologies (T3) enables our scientists, engineers and innovators to establish a daily dialogue with a non-techy listener. This engagement will expand our understanding of how technology can impact our daily lives. The goal is to simplify, avoid the tech mystery and encourage the study or participation in these new disciplines. T3 benefits will answer the following questions:
a. What are the positive or negative impacts in the new technology?
b. When can these technologies impact our daily routine?
c. How can society benefit from these technologies?
T3 will cover a variety of engineering, scientific and future technologies. Topics include autonomous vehicles, disruptive products, cyber technologies, smart homes/devices, unmanned aerial vehicles, smart phone, now what?, space exploration/activities, electric technologies, energy/alternate energy, tech government vs commercial, technology in high schools, future robots, and the next inventions.
