APM presents The Other Moonshot

March 20, 2025 - 5:26 pm

91.3 FM KBCS presents a special 4 part series from American Public Media presents: The Other Moonshot on Fridays during the KBCS 5am Feature Program.

APM presents The Other Moonshot sharing stories from Black aerospace engineers in Los Angeles who worked on the Apollo missions — despite barely being allowed in the room. Producer Joanne Higgins brings this podcast to life. She spent her childhood hearing her godfather talk about working on the Apollo program. Concerned that this unique legacy could be forgotten, she began a journey to record and capture their experiences. Tune in to hear the 3rd part of the series: Making an Impact on Friday at 5am for the KBCS 5am Feature Program. You can connect to the entire series and American Public Media at their site:
