In this week's episode, Alex shares some of his Florida vacation and the 'magic' of branding and storytelling at both Disney and Universal Studio Themeparks. Alex also shares his rotten luck with catching Rocket launches while in Florida...and its not for a lack of launches either! It's also been over a year with our Vespera Telescope so it's time for a recap on what we've learned and what's stuck out so far.

This week's Thought from an Engineer is: Why do Nebulas in my telescope appear SO BIG while the galaxies appears SO SMALL?

Here's to building a fantastic future, for all of humanity!

Topics from the episode: telescope, space, podcast, florida, learned, galaxies, great, launches, nebulas, supernova, mind, whirlpool galaxy, galaxy, engineers, picture, scrubs, rocket launch, star, share, magic We'd love to know your thoughts and questions!
