On Episode 182 of This Week In Space, Rod Pyle and Tariq Malik are joined by Terry Hart to discuss his career from a fighter jet pilot to a NASA astronaut.
If you ever saw the IMAX spectacular, "The Dream is Alive," you've seen astronaut Hart in action, capturing the Solar Max satellite with the shuttle's robotic arm. But even if you missed that film, he has had a fascinating career as an Air Force pilot, NASA astronaut, senior leadership at Bell Labs (more than once!), and as an academic and creator of a new aerospace engineering program at Lehigh University.
