Description
Outside Dallas, Texas, space enthusiasts are watching the dark silhouette of a shuttle pass by, surrounded by its fiery glow. But suddenly, the fire breaks up into several smaller silhouettes, and like falling comets with their fiery tails, they plummet to the ground.  At first, the spectators on the ground cannot believe their eyes. But slowly but surely, reality sets in. It’s all over. The hosts for this episode are Maya Nalani and Luke Welland. The script is written by Per Johansson. Sound design: Viktor Persson. Mayday is produced by the podcast company qast.
