"We came all this way to explore the Moon, and the most important thing is that we discovered the Earth" – Bill Anders, Apollo 8 astronaut. Echoing the famous Earthrise photo, Orion's first look back at Earth en route to the Moon beautifully encapsulated the interconnectedness and fragility of our home. #HappyEarthDay! 🌎💙 #HomeSweetHome 📸 Image Credit: NASA

What a great experience at Space Foundation’s 39th Space Symposium. NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s Deputy Administrator Pam Melroy shared NASA’s Space Sustainability strategy. I appreciated connecting with many industry and international partners with key roles in NASA missions. The conference presented an excellent opportunity for up close and personal experiences with prototypes—which I really enjoyed. Many thanks to NASA astronauts Raja Chari and Jessica Watkins for sharing their experiences at the symposium.

#Space4All has launched nationwide! We’re spotlighting the benefits of space and STEM career opportunities. AIAA is honored to be part of the public-private partnership with the U.S. Department of Education, Women In Aerospace, Blue Origin’s Club for the Future, and Space Foundation. AIAA CEO Dan Dumbacher said, “By 2025, the U.S. STEM workforce will need 3.5 million new workers. We need to attract all of the brightest minds to join this exciting industry, especially from traditionally underrepresented communities. Today, only 16 percent of aerospace and defense workers are Black and Hispanic. The aerospace industry can do better, and we must address the lack of STEM-literate workers immediately with long-term solutions.” Read the full announcement here: https://bit.ly/3W3G6YD #AIAA #ascendspace Sian “Leo” Proctor, Ph.D. Leidos
