." When I was actually about 16 or 17, I found this manual through Arthur C. Clarke got in touch with Space Journey 2001. That was in fact the 1st science fiction book that I've ever read through. I was just so caught through what he had actually created given that the many things that he covered weren't [occurring] in the outlying future, yet in the year 2001. In guide, he discusses a lot regarding space stations, and space shuttles that increase to the spaceport station, and cars that most likely to the Moon or even the Moon base, plus all that. I suggest, these are phrases that you listen to right now constantly, right? And Also Arthur C. Clarke in fact imagined it during that time. In order that was interesting to me. I really hoped that one day I could work with something like that." In conditions of my education and learning, I was in fact heading to enter into the space engineering, yet at that point a person suggested me that technical design would certainly give me a more comprehensive history. So I observed the insight, and it was the correct point to carry out. I ended up discovering a whole lot of factors, certainly not just technical engineering however additionally a great deal concerning electrical design and devices design concurrently." ... After that a chance possessed NASA. It went to that opportunity that they started discussing the space station. Ronald Reagan during that time was the President, and he suggested this campaign to cultivate the spaceport station. During that time, he phoned the spaceport station 'Liberty.'." I presumed, 'Wow, what an interesting principle it would be terrific if I could possibly work with that.'." And of training program, something caused yet another, as well as [I ended up focusing on the International Spaceport Station.] So you never ever know what you're heading to end up performing." I believe in coexistence at times. The things that you perform, somehow, result in your final destination. Some undetectable forces press you during that instructions. When you recall, you discover that every thing fits together.".-- Douglas Wong, Solution Designer, ISS CRS Going To Motor Vehicle Safety And Security & Mission Affirmation Integration Focal, NASA's Johnson Area Facility.Photo Credit Rating: NASA/Bill StaffordInterviewer: NASA/Thalia Patrinos.Look into a few of our other Images of NASA..
