This week's episode has me super pumped, I got the pleasure to speak to Bailey Burns. She is an Aerospace Systems Engineer working to get humans back on the moon. She focuses on life support for extreme environments, basically, she works on keeping astronauts alive in space. One thing I learned from interviewing many women in this field is that space is definitely trying to kill you. fun stuff!
She works on a lot very cool projects such as developing the Lunar Lander which is meant to go back up to the moon, definitely one of the most crucial parts of the Artemis mission.
We also discuss representation, last year we got amazing news! NASA announced a team of 18 astronauts that will be part of the Artemis Program which is the program taking us back to the moon! Of those 18 astronauts, HALF are women, among them there are black women, an Iranian American, and an LGBT astronaut.
We discuss her college years, the steps she took to gain experience, imposter syndrome, and how sometimes the backlash women may face can come from other women!
She tells us her desires to go to space and her experience on being an analog astronaut, which is a program to train, research and learn stuff you would need to if you were in space.
Bailey is also an ambassador for Rubik's cube, and wants to be the first person who solves a Rubik's cube on space!
Stay tuned!
