Show Notes
Shannon Lucid is ready to become the second American to perform a long duration aboard the Russian space station Mir. All she'll need to do is survive Russian language class, memorize a few bolt names, and find her missing shoe.
Errata: I said that Usachov was selected as an astronaut, when clearly he was selected as an cosmonaut.
