It’s been a busy few days for space news. We’re unrolling a new segment on the podcast this week -- a round table of space journalists based here in Florida to break down the latest headlines and offer insight and analysis of all the top space news stories.

The Orlando Sentinel's Chabeli Herrera, WKMG's Emilee Speck and Florida Today's Emre Kelly join the podcast to talk about SpaceX's Starship development, the search for exoplanets and NASA's missions to launch humans to the International Space Station and the moon.
This conversation was recorded Monday, August 5th at 9:00 a.m. By the time you get to listen to this episode, some details might have changed.
