Description

 In the episode, we review the documentary film: Goodnight Oppy, which tells the story of the twin Mars Rovers, Spirit and Opportunity. The movie, which features amazing animation, brings the viewer into the program, pre-launch, launches, landings, the amazing discoveries and the people behind them. More than just robots on another planet, the rovers had their own personalities and issues. The story is enlightening, emotional and educational. I smiled through the entire movie. Additionally, we take a look at Comet ZTF which is brightening and is now visible in our skies. It's closest approach to to the Sun and then Earth are taking place in the coming weeks. So you'll want to get the info now so that you can enjoy the comet!
