Marsha Ivins shares how to become a NASA astronaut | TTS

NASA Astronaut Marsha Ivins explains how she achieved her dreams of flying into space. Discover her story here.

Marsha Ivins was just ten years old when the first US astronauts went into space. As an avid reader of science fiction, she was fascinated. Despite concerns that ‘all the cool stuff in space was going to be done’ by the time she’d be old enough to grasp an intergalactic experience, she made it her life’s mission to become an astronaut.

Following a 37-year career as a NASA engineer and a veteran of five Space Shuttle flights, it’s fair to say Marsha accomplished her quest.

As it turns out, many of the skills needed to become a successful astronaut, such as resilience and creative problem solving are taught in STEAM learning.

Marsha shares with us how she carved out a career path to make her dreams come true.
