Between a Rocket & a Hard Space

<p>Join your host, Patrick O’Neill, Public Affairs lead at the International Space Station National Laboratory, for “Between a Rocket & a Hard Space,” a podcast that explores space-based research with visionaries from academia, government, and private businesses who have launched their R&D to the International Space Station (ISS). People just like you are addressing those pesky hard spaces created by research limitations here on the ground and putting their research on a rocket to test what’s possible in space.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Space Station and its unique environment enable research and technology development not possible on Earth. The ISS National Laboratory provides researchers with access to a permanent microgravity environment, a powerful vantage point in low Earth orbit, and the extreme and varied conditions of space.
