Where's My... Moon Base?
03/03/22 • 40 min
We're back with another episode of Where's My Jetpack, the podcast that straps a rocket to your retrofuturistic dreams and blasts them into orbit!
Today, Luke and Sarah find out that early scientific progress is never a guarantee of continued expansion, as we ask why humans haven't been back to the moon since 1972 and if we'll ever return. To help us find out we're joined by Dr Andy Aldrin, Director of the Aldrin Space Institute, and son of legendary moonwalker, Buzz Aldrin.

Previous Episode
Where's My... Jetpack?
In our first episode of this brand new series, Sarah Cruddas and Luke Moore search for *the* iconic Space Age invention: the jetpack.
From unwieldy early iterations to modern imitations that still remain on the periphery of technological discovery, we're yet to see a jetpack that can be strapped on and flown to work. But, in 2022, is that about to change?
To help us work out if we'll see jetpacks in our near future, we're joined by jet suit inventor and pilot Richard Browning, Dr Jonathan Clark and the great Bill Suitor, pilot of the iconic jetpack at the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles.

Where's My... Hoverboard?
Someone get Marty McFly, because today's episode is right up his futuristic street!
Join Sarah and Luke as they search for an iconic piece of science fiction, the hoverboard. While the technology is already available in some unusual places, strapping it to your feet and flying off to the shops has proved to be a problem that’s a lot more difficult to solve!
Helping us on our quest this week are Prof. Keith Johnstone, writer Dave Carnie and Greg Henderson, founder of Arx Pax and designer of the world's first true hoverboard!
