H'ad Astra Historia Ep. 202: Say Cheese

We’re celebrating the 35th anniversary of the first and only Portrait of the Solar System, a series of images taken by Voyager 1 on 14 Feb 1990. Dr. Candice Hansen-Koharcheck tells the story behind this portrait.  She and Dr. Linda Spilker also talk about their career-long friendship.   Loretta Cannon (an AAS affiliate via Rose City Astronomers) is a science-and-word-nerd who really likes the stars. She quite enjoys working as HAD’s podcaster, bringing astronomy stories to you.   Dr. Candice Hansen-Koharcheck:  https://science.nasa.gov/people/candice-hansen/  and  https://www.psi.edu/staff/profile/professional-history/candice-hansen-koharcheck/ Dr. Linda Spilker:  https://science.jpl.nasa.gov/people/Spilker/ The Solar System Family Portrait:  https://science.nasa.gov/resource/first-ever-solar-system-family-portrait-1990/ Prof Emerita Dorothy Woolum, Cal State Fullerton:  https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Dotty-Woolum Brad Smith: https://www.lpl.arizona.edu/about/memoriam/smith and https://baas.aas.org/pub/bradford-smith-1931-2018/release/1   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!
