Listen "A Coming of Age Odysey Above the Karman Line w/ Lawrence Kuznetz #65"
Episode Synopsis
In This Episode
This week on the Age of Infinite, David Goldsmith welcomes Lawrence Kuznets, a pioneering figure in space exploration and innovation. With a rich history that includes working on Apollo 11, introducing the Space Shuttle to the public, and developing life support systems for the International Space Station, Lawrence shares transformative insights from his remarkable career. Key moments include his discussion on the '4 P's'—passion, priority, perseverance, and putting yourself out there—as essential elements for success. He recounts personal stories, such as his unexpected journey from mission control to designing a spacesuit for Mars and how these experiences have shaped his views on human potential and exploration. The conversation takes unexpected turns as they explore the implications of space technology for life on Earth and the importance of resilience in the face of failure.
