Libby Jackson
Mark and Stuart are joined by space expert Libby Jackson PLUS your T-Shirt Day tracks.
Rounding up 'Big Science' week - a week of special guests from the worlds of science, technology and music - Mark and Stuart chat to space expert Libby Jackson. Libby was just 17 when she started working at NASA and, after finishing her university studies, she eventually became Columbus Flight Director on missions to the International Space Station - which essentially means she was responsible for keeping astronauts alive while up in space. She also ran an education and outreach programme for Tim Peake's historic mission in space last year and is Head of Human Spaceflight and Microgravity Programme Manager for the UK Space Agency.
Today is also ´óÏó´«Ã½ 6 Music T-Shirt Day, so we're donning our band t-shirts and playing tracks by artists emblazoned on the band t-shirts you are wearing too.
