The John Batchelor Hotel Mars program featuring co-host Dr. David Livingston and guest Rick Fisher discussed the space safety issues in that China’s Space Station lacked an emergency lifeboat when their space craft sustained a crack in the window in space. Evidently a high-velocity space debris cracked a porthole on the Chinese space station, forcing the unmanned return of the Shenzhou 20 spacecraft given space safe concerns for occupants. Fisher criticized the Chinese space program for failing to maintain a backup “lifeboat” spacecraft attached to the station as this left their crew vulnerable for about ten days until an emergency backup vehicle could be sent up to them for return to Earth. The Chinese situation did not conform to the safety standards in place with the ISS without functional exit capability, a critical safety violation contradicting International Space Station protocols. John Batchelor pointed this out during the program. Rick also addressed other concerns with the Chinese space program.Special thanks to our sponsors:<a target="_blank" href="https://www.northropgrumman.com/">Northrup Grumman</a>, <a target="_blank" href="https://aiaa.org/">American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics</a>, <a target="_blank" href="https://helixspace.eu/">Helix Space in Luxembourg</a>, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.celestis.com/">Celestis Memorial Spaceflights</a>, <a target="_blank" href="https://astrox.com/">Astrox Corporation</a>, <a target="_blank" href="https://mae.rutgers.edu/haym-benaroya">Dr. Haym Benaroya of Rutgers University</a>, <a target="_blank" href="https://spacesettlementprogress.com/">The Space Settlement Progress Blog by John Jossy</a>, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.project-atlantis.com/">The Atlantis Project</a>, and <a target="_blank" href="http://www.artlessentertainment.com">Artless Entertainment</a>Our Toll Free Line for Live Broadcasts: 1-866-687-7223 (Not in service at this time)For real time program participation, email Dr. Space at: <a target="_blank" href="mailto:drspace@thespaceshow.com">drspace@thespaceshow.com</a> for instructions and access.The Space Show is a non-profit 501C3 through its parent, One Giant Leap Foundation, Inc.
