Ep 116 - Off by a Milli-something: How Tiny Mistakes Doomed Space Exploration
About this episode
Ready to get nervous about our place in the universe? Farz tells the story of the Mars Climate Orbiter - lost on the dark side of Mars forever - & other stories of near misses and lost billions of research dollars from one very very tiny mistake. We also discuss the Hubble Telescope and ask the eternal question: how do cameras work?
If you're worried that you're messing up at work remember at least you're not a NASA Scientist (unless you ARE and in that case, WOAH you're listening to our podcast?!?! Thank you, we are honored).
