This week, we are continuing our deep dive into the fascinating connection between watches and space exploration! ๐ฐ๏ธ We are incredibly honoured to welcome VAST Lead Astronaut Drew Feustel to the show. As a NASA veteran with 225 days in space, Drew has now transitioned to the private sector to help design and build the future of commercial space habitation with VAST. Felix chats with Drew about the unique challenges of living in zero gravity, why small design choices make a massive impact in orbit, and how the innovative IWC Venturer Vertical Drive overcomes those exact challenges. They also zoom out to discuss the big picture: why humanity's future in space matters, and what it's really like to be an astronaut rock star. โญ๐งโ๐ Before the main interview, Andy and Felix break down everyone's favourite plastic pocket watch collaboration, the Audemars Piguet x Swatch Royal Pop, and Andy shares his experience getting on the water with TAG Heuer. ๐โโ๏ธ Sponsored by IWC: This week's episode is proudly brought to you by IWC.
