1
00:00:00,033 --> 00:00:04,000
I was inspired by everything
I learned about at Goddard:
Earth science,

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:09,033
space science, astrophysics,
geology, everything 
cool about the universe

3
00:00:09,033 --> 00:00:11,033
feels like it was 
happening at Goddard.

4
00:00:16,033 --> 00:00:17,800
Not even in my own group.

5
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:18,900
I reached out.

6
00:00:18,900 --> 00:00:21,733
I worked on other missions,
missions studying gamma rays,

7
00:00:21,966 --> 00:00:24,366
missions studying all kinds
of things, cosmic rays.

8
00:00:24,633 --> 00:00:28,000
It was awesome for me, and
really it was my dream job.

9
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,200
Just watching something
that I made go to

10
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,800
space was just a complete 
and total dream come true,

11
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,866
at the time. It's hard to believe
that now I'm actually going

12
00:00:36,866 --> 00:00:39,833
to be going into 
deep space myself.
