We conclude our Apollo @50 series of looks at the Apollo missions to the Moon with looks back and forward.

Blue Dot spotlights the amazing career of one of America's greatest space scientists, Ed Stone. Stone was the Project Scientist for the Voyager missions for 50 years, overseeing the historical tour of the outer solar system's gas giants and their retinue of icy moons and now exploring interstellar space.

Host Dave Schlom visits with Oxford University climate scientist Tim Woollings about his book, Jet Stream: a Journey through our Changing Climate.

Host Dave Schlom checks out the findings from a new NASA instrument flying aboard the International Space Station called ECOSTRESS.

Host Dave Schlom gets a chance to revisit one of his favorite topics -- the twin Voyager spacecraft that began their explorations of the outer solar system and now interstellar space -- 45 years ago.

Host Dave Schlom visits with grant winners from a NASA program designed to boost and accelerate science and engineering programs with potential space applications at Minority Serving Institutions (MSI).

Host Dave Schlom is joined by special co-host Kendall Hall, astronomer and physics professor at California State University Chico as we dive into the first images and science coming out of the James Webb Space Telescope.

Host Dave Schlom talks to three contributors to the book NASA and The Long Civil Rights Movement. Recently published for the first time as a paperback, the book is a collection of essays that came out of a symposium that drew on the expertise of historians to examine NASA's role in the deep south (and beyond) during the height of the space race and to the present day.

NASA's $10 billion new telescope showed the world something remarkable today: an image of some of the first galaxies to form in the universe.

Blue Dot's signature Apollo@50 series continues with the fifth lunar landing mission, Apollo 16. In April of 1972, the crew of Commander John Young, Lunar Module Pilot Charlie Duke, and Command Module Pilot Thomas "Ken" Mattingly set out for the most ambitious science mission to date to explore the mysteries of the Descartes Highlands.
