Houston, we have a podcast.

Welcome to the official podcast of the NASA Johnson Space Center,

episode 232, her passion for STEM.

I'm Gary Jordan, and I'll be your host today.

On this podcast, we bring in the experts, scientists, engineers, and astronauts all to let you know what's going on in the world of human spaceflight and more.

NASA offers opportunities in a number of science, technology, engineering, and math, or STEM disciplines to contribute to space exploration,

scientific discovery, and so much more.

Whether you're interested in microbiology, electrical engineering, exoplanets, there's probably something for you.

Even more exciting, the space industry is growing and opportunities inside and outside

NASA are becoming more numerous.

And even outside of the space bubble,

the possibilities to have a rewarding career in STEM

truly blossom.

Particularly for young girls who have an interest in STEM,

there may be some point in your life where you may not know

how you can explore your passion or worse you can be deterred from pursuing a career that you may love. That's why on this episode we're bringing in two role

models of women in STEM both inside and outside NASA to talk about what inspired

them and to share some advice particularly for young women interested in STEM on how to pursue their dreams.

From NASA we have Chris Brown, deputy associate administrator of STEM engagement,

who has been with the agency for more than 25 years in a number of different roles.

From outside NASA, we're bringing in Emily Calandrelli, a science communicator and influencer.

She's known for hosting the Netflix show Emily's Wonder Lab, and... and two people and I hope you are inspired as well. Here's Chris Brown and Emily
