About Sea Change
Living on the coast means living on the front lines of a rapidly changing planet. And as climate change transforms our coasts, that will transform our world. Every two weeks, we bring you stories that illuminate, inspire, and sometimes enrage, as we dive deep into the environmental issues facing coastal communities on the Gulf Coast and beyond. We have a lot to save, and we have a lot of solutions. Join us as we investigate and celebrate life on a changing coast. It’s time to talk about a Sea Change. Based in New Orleans, Sea Change is a production of WWNO New Orleans Public Radio and WRKF Baton Rouge Public Radio. Sea Change is a part of the NPR Podcast Network and is distributed by PRX. Hosted by Carlyle Calhoun. Our theme song is by Jon Batiste. Sea Change is made possible with major support provided by The Gulf Research Program of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and The Water Collaborative. The Coastal Desk is supported by the Walton Family Foundation, the Greater New Orleans Foundation, and the Meraux Foundation.

[…] Not for me either. But I guess then my next question is, why can't SpaceX reach polar orbit from those other locations you mentioned? Well, it's really about geography because these rockets have to launch south to get into polar orbit more efficiently. And over in Texas, that would mean the rockets would, of course, fly over Mexico. And in Florida, they'd be flying over like Miami and Cuba and other places, otherwise known as places where people live. And so you've got this danger of falling debris or potential explosions and really just the rocket launch stage happening over these populated areas. […]
