[Interview] Reaching for the Stars: Using Space Exploration as a Source of Inspiration (feat. Abigail Harrison)
Many of us remember looking up at the stars as a kid, and wondering “What IS out there?”
As we grow older, we try to seek answers by flipping through science magazines or by following NASA’s newsfeed.
According to my guest, Abigail Harrison, not only is this a healthy type of curiosity but an excellent source of inspiration and wonder.
Abigail Harrison, fondly known as “Astronaut Abby,” is an aspiring astronaut, author and co-founder of the international nonprofit organization The Mars Generation. She has interned at a NASA-funded astrobiology lab; and has been featured in TIME, Forbes, Marie Claire, the BBC, and more. She currently works as a research scientist at Harvard Medical School.
Abby believes that no one is ever too young or too old to pursue their dreams. In this interview, she inspires us with her philosophy and helped her rise to the top of her field. She also discusses the importance of space exploration and why it’s important and relevant in today’s world.
