Everyday Extraordinary Podcast: Episode 3

A mission to the moon is a milestone that all of humanity can take pride in. With the stakes higher than ever, the complexity is staggering, involving a vast number of moving parts working together to achieve what once seemed impossible. As we prepare for the next historic moment when humans return to the moon’s surface, Peraton will play a critical and fundamental role, harnessing the top scientific and engineering minds in the world to make this ambitious mission a reality. For decades, Peraton’s team has been the foundation of communication for both deep space and near-space missions. The success and safety of these missions hinge on maintaining connections with spacecraft that are sometimes light-years away.

In this episode, we dive deep into Peraton’s pivotal role in supporting NASA’s space exploration with Sonny Giroux, program manager for the deep space contract, who has been leading the charge for over a decade, and Leslie Cuncleman, outreach supervisor and a seasoned expert in translating the complexities of space travel into concepts that the rest of us can actually understand.
