We’re celebrating the 35th anniversary of the first and only Portrait of the Solar System, a series of images taken by Voyager 1 on 14 Feb 1990. Dr. Candice Hansen-Koharcheck tells the story behind this portrait. She and Dr. Linda Spilker also talk about their career-long friendship.
Loretta Cannon (an AAS affiliate via Rose City Astronomers) is a science-and-word-nerd who really likes the stars. She quite enjoys working as HAD’s podcaster, bringing astronomy stories to you.
