As we all watch the Orion crew make their incredible journey to the Moon, I couldn’t help thinking back to CES 2018 when @spsheridan had the incredible opportunity to interview NASA engineer Jared Daum. While the launch timeline might have been a bit optimistic, hearing him explain how Orion’s parachutes will guide the crew safely to splashdown is still a fascinating reminder of just how much brilliance goes into spaceflight.
