Scientist, astronaut, engineer, entrepreneur and teacher Owen Garriott co-chaired a distinguished commission charged with creating an affordable plan for exploring the solar system. The report is out, and Garriott talks about it on this week's show. Emily and the Huygens probe find the hidden methane on Saturn's moon Titan. Bruce Betts has a new space trivia contest and sings (sort of) on What's Up! All this, and space headlines.
