From Texas Cows to Lagrange Points in Space! - Ep 35

In this episode of the RedMars Podcast featuring Secret Launch Codes, AstroJake and a friend dive into one of those perfectly random yet surprisingly deep conversations. We bounce from solar radiation and how it bends, breaks, and boosts radio signals… to cows roaming Texas (don’t ask, just listen). Then we swing out to the Lagrange points and the missions that could live there, talk through muscle wires and shape-memory Nitinol, and nerd out on antenna geometries and why certain shapes actually work better in space and on Earth.

It’s equal parts chill hangout and technical brain fuel — the kind of episode where you learn something new without even trying.
