Is Space Exploration Worth the Cost?

EYL NETWORK
About this episode

Join us on another enlightening clip of Earn Your Leisure, where we engage in a thought-provoking discussion about the true value of space exploration. In this clip, #EYL hosts Rashad Bilal, Troy Millings, and guest Aisha Bowe, a former NASA STEM advocate, unravel the mysteries behind the gigantic investments in space programs and how they benefit life on Earth.


The conversation kicks off with Rashad questioning the purpose behind America's historical moon landing and what has been achieved since then. Aisha enlightens us with how space research contributes to medical breakthroughs, such as fighting diseases and developing new treatments that are effective both in space and on Earth.


We delve into the technological advances spawned by space research, with direct applications that revolutionize our daily lives – from satellite TV to GPS navigation. The panel discusses how investments in space technology are long-term savings in disguise, aiming to make costly innovations more affordable over time and potentially rid humanity of afflictions like cancer.


Join our hosts as they explore the possibilities brought by private sector involvement in space exploration, which has historically been the realm of governmental entities. Aisha encourages a future where diversity leads the next era of space entrepreneurs, and we examine whether Mars is the next frontier for human space travel.


As we touch on the challenge of space debris, Aisha offers her perspective on opportunities for startups in creating novel solutions for orbital cleanup – a growing segment in the space industry with urgent needs.


Our conversation takes a playful turn towards addressing conspiracy theories – from flat Earthers to questioning the existence of extraterrestrial life. Aisha addresses these with a mix of humor and logic, explaining how everyday dependencies on satellite technology defy flat Earth claims and how, from a mathematical standpoint, the probability of alien life cannot be dismissed.


So, are we alone in the universe? What’s next in the race to Mars? And how do advancements in space exploration transcend beyond our earthly confines? For all this and more, tune in to this riveting episode of Earn Your Leisure.
