STP19 - Unsung Heroes - Heather Couper and George Carruthers
In our first podcast of 2021 we spend some time talking about two people from the world of space who we think have been over looked. There are obviously thousands of people who fit this bill, but this podcast isn't going anywhere soon, so we'll do our best!
