Listen to short chats from these three amazing guests: Dr. Jermey Matthews (Ep 91: How Do Scientists Get Kids Excited about STEM?), Dr. Cory Hixon (Ep. 77: How do Engineers Think?) and Tracy Drain (Ep 124: How Do You Study Another Planet’s Moon?). Enjoy these fun and interesting topics and see you next week for new episodes!
The Solve It for Kids podcast is on summer break! But we have left you a few clips of some the best space exploration episodes to enjoy.

How do you view the universe? Chances are that answer has changed a lot in the last few years. With all of the amazing images coming from Mars (via the Perserverance Rover), the James Webb Space Telescope, and even the Artemis 1 mission, the universe seems even more incredibly amazing than before. It is our honor to chat with the person who was in charge of the teams at NASA who completed all of these amazing missions. Our guest today is Dr. Thomas Zerbuchen, Associate Administrator for the Science Mission Directorate at NASA from 2016 to 2022. Don’t miss this awesome discussion of space and the universe.
What is one of the coolest jobs at NASA? Well, if you can’t be an astronaut, maybe you can help dress one. Meet Sharon McDougle former NASA Spacesuit Technician, who was responsible for helping the astronauts to put in their pressure suits. It’s not as easy as you would think. Take a listen to this episode as Sharon describes just how important fit is to a pressure suit.
On today’s show, we discuss a problem that most people, well, probably don’t like to talk about. But, bad breath can be an important– and embarrassing– problem. Just how can you fix it? Dr. Mel Rosenberg, Professor Emeritus at Tel Aviv University, tells us all about the scientific solution he developed to treat this problem. And he also shares his love of children’s books, too.
It’s a bird. It’s a plane. It’s the Super Guppy! Have you ever wondered type of plane can transport really huge objects like NASA’s Orion spacecraft? Yep. It’s the Super Guppy. We are thrilled to have Herb Baker, retired NASA business manager who worked on programs such as the Space Shuttle, the Space Station, and Orion, as well as, the Super Guppy. He’s here to tell us all about this amazing aircraft.
