...with Al Worden
Episode 13
Wednesday, 30 September, 2020
For this episode we were at New Scientist Live 2019 as their “performance stage”, hosting workshops, talks and interviews with some of the UK’s leading scientists and researchers. One of the (many) highlights was hosting an interview and Q&A with astronaut Al Worden who piloted the Apollo 15 command module to The Moon in 1971. We’re releasing this episode for International Podcast Day to celebrate Al’s life after he passed away earlier this year. 2020 really hasn’t pulled any punches, eh? In this episode Al and Jon chat about: • his astronaut training • his Guinness World record • his favourite sci-fi films • his relationships with other Apollo astronauts • why at 87 years old he still considered himself the best crew member for a mission to Mars and he answers questions from the New Scientist Live audience LINKS Al’s legacy feed on Twitter @WordenAlfred Website alworden.com The Al Worden “Endeavour” Scholarship unspaceagency.earth Credits Presenter: Jon Spooner Sound Engineer & Editor: Andy Wood Music: Public Service Broadcasting Ground Crew: Anna Turzyknski, Sarah Readman, Sarah Webb Producers: Jon Spooner, Alice Massey, Sarah Webb, Javairya Khan for Unlimited Graphic Design: Lee Goater The Unlimited Space Agency and The Space Shed are projects of Unlimited Theatre Hosted on Acast.
