Going to space is just the beginning. It's what you do when you get there that matters most. We'll take you out of this world to get an inside look into how we are pioneering a bold new vision of space. Join us on this journey of adventure and discovery as our experts explore the future of space and how today's technological advancements are helping humans "untether" from Earth, establishing interconnected communications, defending our allies, and sustaining Earth for future generations.
Deep space exploration can be a high-stakes venture and any failures can be costly, setting you back years. In an era of significant budget cuts, learn how NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and Lockheed Martin innovations made spacecraft faster, better, and cheaper and changed the future of building spacecraft for deep space exploration.
We “flash forward” into what the future might look like 50 years from now. An expert disc...
In this episode, we dive into an unexpectedly rocky relationship between an asteroid named Bennu and a cutting-edge spacecraft named OSIRIS-REx.
Bennu, an asteroid larger than the Empire State Building, is an ancient relic of our solar system with more than 4.5 billion years of history to share. OSIRIS-REx, a cutting-edge spacecraft built by Lockheed Martin, launched in 2016 on a mission to meet Bennu for an extraterrestrial rende...
In Part II, OSIRIS-Rex continues its incredible mission of collecting a sample from Bennu, an asteroid sailing through space more than 200 miles away.
With our expert, we'll take a deeper dive to into what the future may look like because of OSIRIS-REx, and what it will take to have sustained colonies on the Moon—and even Mars.

We're bringing you a story about a groundbreaking mission named Lucy, set to launch in October of 2021. This mission will visit and study a record number of Trojan asteroids that are some of the oldest objects in our solar system.
It takes an incredible amount of work to plan a mission to one location in deep space, but planning a mission to visit seven Trojan asteroids is a once-in-a-lifetime event.
We take you behind the scenes...
The life-sustaining jewel of the Artemis program, Orion, is the only spacecraft rated for human deep space flight. Designed to meet the needs for a 3-day mission to the Moon or a 3-year journey to Mars, the Orion spacecraft is uniquely suited to protect astronauts in the most extreme conditions.
We talk with Dr. Christine Edwards, the Deputy Exploration Architect at Lockheed Martin Space, for a behind-the-scenes peek into the engine...
Space is a fascinating and mysterious place that often redefines science as we know it. And this couldn’t be more true than with the asteroid Bennu.
As the spacecraft OSIRIS-REx got close to this ancient interstellar object, they noticed something strange happening. Listen to this episode to hear why scientists think this peculiar event is happening.
