Longitudes of Imagination | Gateway

Longitude Sound Bytes podcast is bringing innovative insights from professionals around the world to you.
As part of our Longitudes of Imagination series, we are exploring the roles of individuals, technologies and research in ocean science and space technology. 

For our fourth installment, the fellows share highlights from their conversations with the members of NASA’s Gateway program. Gateway will be a small international space station that will be in orbit around the moon to support a lunar base and serve as a gateway for explorations beyond it.
