To mark the end of 2023, we're taking a look back at some of our favourite episodes from this past year. 

We hope you enjoy this trip down memory lane, and please stay tuned to the feed for new episodes coming in 2024.

Happy new year!

ORIGINAL SHOW NOTES:

One of the biggest problems facing humans attempting to travel anywhere in space that's farther than the moon is the years it will take to get there. A small ship simply can't support normal human life for that long. We need too much food, water, exercise and stimulation. But ... what if we didn't? What if we could shut ourselves down, the way animals do in the middle of winter, needing limited supplies and passing months as though they were days?

This used to be the realm of science fiction. It's not anymore.
