Attention all you interplanetary podcast listeners out there - GALAXY FEST IS BACK!
That's right, the crew of the Spectacular Irish Space station are ready for another season of astronomical adventures, and this time they’re travelling to the farthest reaches of the known Universe.
Pop on your space helmets, or headphones, and strap in for take-off, as the crew investigate mysterious signals, extraterrestrial goo, warping molecules, and much, much more.
Galaxy Fest is a fast-paced, absurdly hilarious, and surprisingly educational romp through a Universe we’ve only begun to discover. Join Astrid, Lennon, Eve, and Harper, as they get tangled up in more interstellar incidents than ever - meet the crew here!

After establishing their scientific selves, and the Big SISS (Spectacular Irish Space Station) in Season 1, the crew are able to branch out in Season 2, following their personal interests, taking on new challenges, and exploring previously unexplored depths of Space.
This leads to amazing new discoveries, like a sentient pile of alien goo, and spectacular experiences, like a journey through the gaseous exterior of gas giant Jupiter.
They are accompanied through it all by their trusty old Robot sidekick, Bellhop. Although, Bellhop has not been so trusty lately, perhaps an upgrade is needed? Better be careful what you wish for there, folks!
