In today’s episode of Boing Boing Video, I catch up with our guest video contributor Miles O’Brien for an update on the space stories he’s following this week.
The esteemed space, science, and aviation reporter brought us a story on an astronaut climbing Mt. Everest — who just reached the summit! Then, Miles literally dove in to a floating “tool time” session with NASA astronauts tasked with repair of the Hubble Space Telescope.
Today, he brings us up to speed on these and other sci-tech stories he’s following, and we hear what he’ll be digging into next.
The former CNN anchor and reporter is exploring what independent online journalism is all about. In this episode, we learn what life is like for a 26-year broadcast veteran who has become a freewheeling freelancer. The short answer? Pretty good.
