Space

As NASA prepares to return to the moon, entrepreneurs like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos inspire a new generation with breath-taking space technologies and promises to make us an multi-planet species. But will space continue to inspire wonder in humanity for generations to come, or will the conquest of the cosmos transport our worst tendencies to the stars? Joining us for our journey into space are Ariel Ekblaw, Founder and Director of the MIT Space Exploration Initiative, and author of Into the Anthropocosmos; Alan Lightman, novelist, essayist, and the first joint professor in literature and astrophysics, also at MIT, and Luciano Diana, Equity Partner of the Pictet Group. Giorgio Cremonesi, Head of Global Marketing Solutions for Pictet Wealth Management, moderates. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
