Won't be able to listen to this for a day or so--did you correct them on that "Tychonaut" [sic] business from last week? I hope so. :)

Was something wrong with the word Tychonaut? I assumed it was a fictional name for astronauts in the Golden Age or something.

I was more irked by the references to tectonic plates on the Moon (which I did talk about in this episode) than anything related to Tychonauts...

Yeah, I knew you were bothered by that.

The term is taikonaut (at least the accelerator facility on the moon is Chinese), but last week someone was speculating that it was a callback to Tycho in Marathon. I thought "Too bad Craig isn't there to tell them they are completely misunderstanding the term." Plus, I know you know Marathon!
