...with Abbie Hutty

For this episode we’re back in the Faraway Forest at Latitude Festival with space engineer Abbie Hutty. For the last seven years she has been working as the lead structures engineer on the European Space Agency’s ExoMars rover that is scheduled for launch to the red planet in 2020. Also, Jon makes an utter hash of trying to launch the Space Shed. Bear with him!

In this episode Abbie and UNSA’s Director of Human Spaceflight Jon Spooner talk about

how she became a space engineer
why she’s building a rover to go to Mars
why she’s confident about finding new life forms on Mars

and answers questions on

what sort of life she’s expecting to find there
what her favourite planet is and why
what inspired her to work in the space industry
how she responds to people who believe the Earth is flat

Enjoy!
