In 1919, in Newfoundland, four teams of aviators raced to be the first to fly, non-stop, across the Atlantic. Only one team, after a death-defying flight, made it to Ireland. Host Saanvi Phaneendra interviews author, David Rooney, about his book THE BIG HOP, the inspiring story of the pathbreaking journey and the aviators who risked their lives to make history. In segment two, Saanvi flies from the edges of the solar system to the pulse of distant planets. She dives into the incredible stories behind six spacecraft that didn’t just leave Earth, they rewrote how we understand the cosmos and our planet. They aren’t just metal and machinery floating in space… they’re storytellers, detectives, and explorers. These missions show that space exploration isn’t just about reaching the stars. It’s about understanding where we come from, how our planet is changing, and what’s still waiting out there. History isn’t just in the past. It’s in every takeoff, every challenge, and every leap we make.

As a Science Museum keeper, he led a team of ten curators responsible for one-third of the museum’s vast collection, overseeing internationally significant artefacts from art and aeronautics to space technology and nuclear power. Among the exhibitions David curated was a critically acclaimed retrospective of the codebreaker Alan Turing, and an award-winning mathematics hall designed by Zaha Hadid.
