NASA: The 60th Anniversary of the National Aeronautics & Space Administration

Please note: Today's show will repeat at 9 pm, rather than the usual 8 pm rebroadcast.

This month marks the 60th anniversary of the creation of NASA. Our panelists discuss what may be next for NASA, and the latest news from out of this world, including the search for Planet X, the aborted mission to the International Space Station, and the Hubble and Chandra glitches.
