Episode 326: Talking Space Live For 135

On this episode, we begin with a status update of STS-135, from the tanking tests, to a leaky valve, to a very interesting view on what will be in Atlantis's payload bay. We also make a big announcement about Talking Space's coverage of STS-135. An announcement for the ages, not to be missed! We talk about the Multi-Puropse Crew Vehicle (MPCV) taking a tour around the states as well as an announcmement about a date for the announcement of the new Space Launch System (SLS). We then conclude with a heated, interesting discussion that occured at a Republican debate in New Hampshire regarding the United State's space program and its future.
