00:05:40,490 wanted to do I believe that our 86 00:05:47,350 --> 00:05:44,060 path It was not specifically drawn up 87 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:47,360 but we had this great vision and there 88 00:05:51,189 --> 00:05:49,370 were already different routes to reach 89 00:05:52,439 --> 00:05:51,199 that vision and here we were, we have 90 00:05:55,739 --> 00:05:52,449 achieved it 91 00:05:59,620 --> 00:05:55,749 very well now let's move on to the 92 00:06:03,210 --> 00:05:59,630 NATO library and a home do you have any questions 93 00:06:03,220 --> 00:06:12,629 inadvertently 94 00:06:12,639

8-year-old Juan asked if he wants to 98 00:06:33,140 --> 00:06:31,400 know if you have been in 99 00:06:35,060 --> 00:06:33,150 space 100 00:06:36,850 --> 00:06:35,070 that is the first question and the second 101 00:06:40,730 --> 00:06:36,860 question he has if they have found 102 00:06:42,510 --> 00:06:40,740 diamonds in space 103 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:42,520 although 104 00:06:46,740 --> 00:06:44,530 he answered the first part of the question 105 00:06:50,010 --> 00:06:46,750 and you can add it and answer the 106 00:06:52,409 --> 00:06:50,020 second if we have been in space 107 00:06:54,809 --> 00:06:52,419 NASA is a very large organization that 108 00:06:56,850 --> 00:06:54,819 we have 12 different centers in 109 00:06:58,680 --> 00:06:56,860 different parts of the United States and 110 00:07:01,920 --> 00:06:58,690 each center has a specific focus 111 00:07:04,230 --> 00:07:01,930 the center where michel a and I are is 112 00:07:11,909 --> 00:07:04,240 called the jet propulsion laboratory and the 113 00:07:17,370 --> 00:07:15,450 humans, nothing else, we send roberts satellites, 114 00:07:22,580 --> 00:07:21,060 so our universe of many 115 00:07:26,460 --> 00:07:22,590 different 116 00:07:30,210 --> 00:07:26,470 space humans, the NASA center 117 00:07:32,910 --> 00:07:30,220 in charge of training astronauts, 118 00:07:38,490 --> 00:07:32,920 and of course, we have the space station 119 00:07:41,630 --> 00:07:38,500 where humans have also been all the time, 120 00:07:48,650 --> 00:07:44,420 this was the first place. where we arrived 121 00:08:03,590 --> 00:07:48,660 so we have a series of different 122 00:08:09,450 --> 00:08:06,330 we asked ourselves focused and we have 123 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:09,460 already gone to space because 124 00:08:26,970 --> 00:08:25,140 and you have been I have not been either my 125 00:08:30,420 --> 00:08:26,980 mind is in space many times 126 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:30,430 but I have not been We have been in space 127 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:32,410 but our minds 128 00:08:40,670 --> 00:08:38,300 but the truth is that I 129 00:08:43,700 --> 00:08:40,680 applied for the 130 00:08:46,730 --> 00:08:43,710 astronaut program for the European space agency 131 00:08:48,350 --> 00:08:46,740 and they called me in 2008 132 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:48,360 so I did the 133 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:52,770 astronaut tests in Germany in Hamburg And if it was that 134 00:08:56,300 --> 00:08:54,450 I commented, it was very interesting, I 135 00:08:59,510 --> 00:08:56,310 was not selected because there were about 136 00:09:02,030 --> 00:08:59,520 10,000 people who are in the application and 137 00:09:04,730 --> 00:09:02,040 in the end I ended up among the last 200 138 00:09:06,410 --> 00:09:04,740 but they chose only 45 people in the end, 139 00:09:10,370 --> 00:09:06,420 so it was a very selective process, 140 00:09:14,290 --> 00:09:10,380 but sure that They would both 141 00:09:16,750 --> 00:09:14,300 love it and maybe one day we can go 142 00:09:18,730 --> 00:09:16,760 and for now they are going into space through 143 00:09:21,490 --> 00:09:18,740 the satellites and the other ships that 144 00:09:23,680 --> 00:09:21,500 we have that is very good let's move on to the 145 00:09:30,630 --> 00:09:23,690 next question with the 146 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:38,290 do you have any questions about her 147 00:09:44,560 --> 00:09:40,540 ok good well for now we are going to start 148 00:09:47,710 --> 00:09:44,570 taking questions from the public and the 149 00:09:49,940 --> 00:09:47,720 first question I have for you 150 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:49,950 is 151 00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:54,330 what concrete steps did you take in your 152 00:09:59,630 --> 00:09:57,450 career in terms of education what 153 00:10:01,010 --> 00:09:59,640 class did you emphasize in order to do 154 00:10:03,810 --> 00:10:01,020 what you are doing now at the 155 00:10:11,420 --> 00:10:05,120 and 156 00:10:13,820 --> 00:10:11,430 what I did was 157 00:10:16,750 --> 00:10:13,830 telecommunications engineering in Madrid, which here is 158 00:10:20,810 --> 00:10:16,760 called electrical 159 00:10:23,330 --> 00:10:20,820 electrical engineering in the US, and 160 00:10:26,030 --> 00:10:23,340 later when I was about to 161 00:10:28,460 --> 00:10:26,040 finish my degree, I did my final project 162 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:28,470 at the National Institute of 163 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:33,260 Stays in Madrid and I worked on 164 00:10:37,430 --> 00:10:34,980 optical communications research 165 00:10:41,340 --> 00:10:37,440 later on, as I have said before, 166 00:10:45,139 --> 00:10:41,350 when the project offered me a 167 00:10:49,260 --> 00:10:45,149 job and then I worked designing 168 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:54,240 in hand with people 169 00:10:57,930 --> 00:10:55,930 and then, since I wanted to continue 170 00:10:59,540 --> 00:10:57,940 learning more about space and My 171 00:11:01,890 --> 00:10:59,550 dream was always to work at NASA 172 00:11:04,110 --> 00:11:01,900 because in the end I am looking at 173 00:11:06,420 --> 00:11:04,120 opportunities to leave Spain and 174 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:06,430 be in other countries and learn other 175 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:09,490 things and then I did a master's degree in 176 00:11:13,430 --> 00:11:11,290 space studies at the 177 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:13,440 international space university in Strasbourg 178 00:11:18,870 --> 00:11:16,450 and thanks to that master's I can to do an 179 00:11:20,700 --> 00:11:18,880 internship in my skin here at the 180 00:11:24,420 --> 00:11:20,710 nasa center which is something very 181 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:24,430 important to be able to have experience 182 00:11:29,490 --> 00:11:26,530 and later have the opportunity to 183 00:11:31,290 --> 00:11:29,500 do more research and even 184 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:31,300 have a job a position to whom to 185 00:11:36,510 --> 00:11:33,970 launch but anyway in 186 00:11:38,430 --> 00:11:36,520 Regarding the subjects, it is true that I 187 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:38,440 focused on the technical, not mathematics, 188 00:11:45,450 --> 00:11:41,770 physics, chemistry, engineering, all these 189 00:11:47,940 --> 00:11:45,460 types of subjects, but I think that to 190 00:11:48,980 --> 00:11:47,950 work at NASA, there 191 00:11:52,620 --> 00:11:48,990 are not only engineers and scientists, there 192 00:11:54,210 --> 00:11:52,630 are also lawyers, there are economists, there are 193 00:11:56,250 --> 00:11:54,220 a lot of people who work in what 194 00:11:58,950 --> 00:11:56,260 is called space load space business in English 195 00:12:01,080 --> 00:11:58,960 so 196 00:12:02,700 --> 00:12:01,090 you love science and technology 197 00:12:04,740 --> 00:12:02,710 great because it is what there are more 198 00:12:07,500 --> 00:12:04,750 engineers and scientists but it is also 199 00:12:08,910 --> 00:12:07,510 important to mention that other careers 200 00:12:10,500 --> 00:12:08,920 that are not scientific also have 201 00:12:12,450 --> 00:12:10,510 many possibilities to work at 202 00:12:16,110 --> 00:12:12,460 NASA that is my point of view what do you think 203 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:16,120 about me my journey has been somewhat 204 00:12:21,330 --> 00:12:18,850 similar to michel's although we work 205 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:21,340 in different areas as i mentioned 206 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:23,650 initially i am passionate about science and 207 00:12:30,540 --> 00:12:27,730 always had that desire to venture and 208 00:12:32,430 --> 00:12:30,550 develop as a I was a professional in 209 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:32,440 the area of ​​science and technology 210 00:12:37,290 --> 00:12:35,290 and I knew that NASA had this 211 00:12:39,810 --> 00:12:37,300 very large program focused on this planet 212 00:12:42,630 --> 00:12:39,820 earth using satellite images, 213 00:12:44,970 --> 00:12:42,640 so that 214 00:12:48,570 --> 00:12:44,980 was more or less my journey 215 00:12:51,210 --> 00:12:48,580 studying electrical media using 216 00:12:53,530 --> 00:12:51,220 technology and then applied physics 217 00:12:55,569 --> 00:12:53,540 towards the environment 218 00:12:58,300 --> 00:12:55,579 one opportunity led to another and I 219 00:13:00,790 --> 00:12:58,310 got here thanks to the opportunity to 220 00:13:03,970 --> 00:13:00,800 be able to do part of the research for 221 00:13:05,980 --> 00:13:03,980 my master's thesis here at NASA and 222 00:13:08,949 --> 00:13:05,990 that opportunity opened another 223 00:13:11,139 --> 00:13:08,959 opportunity for me to be able to do part of 224 00:13:14,850 --> 00:13:11,149 my research PhD here at 225 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:14,860 NASA too and from there 226 00:13:20,250 --> 00:13:17,290 when I finished well the team of 227 00:13:22,680 --> 00:13:20,260 scientists invited me to be part 228 00:13:26,820 --> 00:13:22,690 of the team of scientists 229 00:13:28,890 --> 00:13:26,830 here at NASA so it's god there have been 230 00:13:30,930 --> 00:13:28,900 a series of opportunities but I think 231 00:13:33,780 --> 00:13:30,940 the most important in my life was being 232 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:33,790 able to come here to NASA initially 233 00:13:40,470 --> 00:13:38,170 as a student not only for me to not 234 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:40,480 gain experience but also to 235 00:13:44,510 --> 00:13:42,850 let people and other 236 00:13:47,550 --> 00:13:44,520 scientists within the organization 237 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:47,560 know who I am and to make myself known and 238 00:13:51,990 --> 00:13:49,210 also explore the opportunities that 239 00:13:53,130 --> 00:13:52,000 They existed within the institution very 240 00:13:56,220 --> 00:13:53,140 well 241 00:13:58,050 --> 00:13:56,230 I also forgot to mention that I 242 00:14:00,450 --> 00:13:58,060 too, like Erika, did my 243 00:14:04,350 --> 00:14:00,460 PhD research in engine 244 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:04,360 skin here so I took classes 245 00:14:08,130 --> 00:14:06,370 at Caltech but then all the 246 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:08,140 scientific part of the PhD I also did 247 00:14:11,700 --> 00:14:09,850 here in my skin then This is very 248 00:14:13,170 --> 00:14:11,710 important because when I finish my 249 00:14:15,300 --> 00:14:13,180 doctoral program, they also offered a job, 250 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:15,310 so it is very important to do 251 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:16,770 an internship here that does not 252 00:14:22,439 --> 00:14:18,850 make itself known 253 00:14:24,329 --> 00:14:22,449 very well and is somewhat related to what they 254 00:14:26,430 --> 00:14:24,339 have been talking about. I have another 255 00:14:29,370 --> 00:14:26,440 question from the public, this one came to us from this 256 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:29,380 Rolando Alfaro, who asks you about Erika, 257 00:14:34,470 --> 00:14:31,690 firstly, what is your main research goal 258 00:14:36,420 --> 00:14:34,480 and secondly, what do you think about 259 00:14:39,540 --> 00:14:36,430 basic research or what is called 260 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:39,550 in English basic research and NASA? 261 00:14:45,810 --> 00:14:41,890 The goal of my main research 262 00:14:48,269 --> 00:14:45,820 was purely my focus. My area of 263 00:14:50,730 --> 00:14:48,279 study is the earth then used 264 00:14:52,460 --> 00:14:50,740 satellite images to study 265 00:14:55,949 --> 00:14:52,470 our planet earth specifically 266 00:14:59,009 --> 00:14:55,959 the continents and how everything is 267 00:15:01,079 --> 00:14:59,019 interrelated global processes and 268 00:15:05,100 --> 00:15:01,089 what are the effects of 269 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:05,110 climate change on different 270 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:08,170 aspects of our environment in 271 00:15:12,870 --> 00:15:10,450 terms of basic research the 272 00:15:14,759 --> 00:15:12,880 basics beat and songs there is a great focus 273 00:15:16,980 --> 00:15:14,769 on the basic crisis date 274 00:15:19,470 --> 00:15:16,990 basic research in earth sciences by 275 00:15:23,190 --> 00:15:19,480 NASA because they are topics that 276 00:15:25,980 --> 00:15:23,200 are of the utmost importance and if NASA 277 00:15:28,139 --> 00:15:25,990 is increasing its 278 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:28,149 emphasis on Earth observation every time, 279 00:15:34,500 --> 00:15:30,490 for example in the next six years 280 00:15:36,389 --> 00:15:34,510 are going to take place between now and 2015, sorry, there are going to 281 00:15:39,980 --> 00:15:36,399 be six new satellites for 282 00:15:39,980 --> 00:15:42,480 earth observation, so 283 00:15:49,590 --> 00:15:47,610 basic research was definitely becoming 284 00:15:52,439 --> 00:15:49,600 stronger and more important within the 285 00:15:53,610 --> 00:15:52,449 organization, very well, very well, 286 00:15:55,439 --> 00:15:53,620 now We go back to the 287 00:15:59,660 --> 00:15:55,449 participants that we have online. Maria 288 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:03,200 and you are quite representative. I 289 00:16:08,020 --> 00:16:05,730 think NASA personnel 290 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:08,030 are not very varied. They come from many 291 00:16:14,150 --> 00:16:11,970 different backgrounds of different 292 00:16:15,410 --> 00:16:14,160 nationalities. 293 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:15,420 I would like you to explain it a bit. 294 00:16:19,340 --> 00:16:17,490 What is it like to work at NASA? The 295 00:16:23,860 --> 00:16:19,350 work environment and the type of people I 296 00:16:28,580 --> 00:16:26,390 can start 297 00:16:31,340 --> 00:16:28,590 with the work environment. It's very, 298 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:31,350 really. It's very international. 299 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:33,690 One thing I've learned, I've worked here for almost 300 00:16:38,740 --> 00:16:36,210 all these five years. years in the 301 00:16:41,810 --> 00:16:38,750 mission and one that is a mission to Jupiter 302 00:16:44,810 --> 00:16:41,820 as a satellite that has been managed 303 00:16:47,090 --> 00:16:44,820 here in the beginning and so in this 304 00:16:48,890 --> 00:16:47,100 project there are instruments from all over the 305 00:16:51,860 --> 00:16:48,900 world, not only American but also 306 00:16:55,130 --> 00:16:51,870 European and in fact part of my job 307 00:16:58,900 --> 00:16:55,140 was to make the interface between NASA and the 308 00:17:02,630 --> 00:16:58,910 Italian space agency, so in 309 00:17:04,850 --> 00:17:02,640 these years 310 00:17:05,930 --> 00:17:04,860 international collaboration is essential, especially 311 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:05,940 in the world we live in. Now we 312 00:17:12,110 --> 00:17:09,330 have to constantly collaborate on 313 00:17:14,090 --> 00:17:12,120 projects with other countries, it is 314 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:14,100 also very important from a scientific point of 315 00:17:18,980 --> 00:17:16,530 view because it they share 316 00:17:20,810 --> 00:17:18,990 ideas and so unity 317 00:17:22,390 --> 00:17:20,820 is strength so 318 00:17:26,170 --> 00:17:24,670 this aspect of our work is very important and I also 319 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:26,180 love it because he is a person 320 00:17:32,230 --> 00:17:29,450 who really likes to talk to people from 321 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:32,240 other countries and that makes it very 322 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:33,890 exciting no so that's part of 323 00:17:39,670 --> 00:17:37,010 our work is also what I have 324 00:17:42,900 --> 00:17:39,680 noticed is that the scientists and 325 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:42,910 engineers here in my skin are very, very 326 00:17:47,950 --> 00:17:45,410 little arrogant people, not in general, 327 00:17:50,140 --> 00:17:47,960 people are very simple, you can meet 328 00:17:52,030 --> 00:17:50,150 Nobel Prize winners and they are the most 329 00:17:54,460 --> 00:17:52,040 simple people, they talk to you that It is an 330 00:17:57,820 --> 00:17:54,470 environment that is truly 331 00:17:59,920 --> 00:17:57,830 appreciated very much. It is a 332 00:18:02,110 --> 00:17:59,930 very good environment to work in where you can 333 00:18:03,100 --> 00:18:02,120 develop very interesting ideas and the 334 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:03,110 truth is that I think that is why we 335 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:05,090 are here because we are very, very 336 00:18:15,170 --> 00:18:13,910 I just wanted to add it plays every time and 337 00:18:18,350 --> 00:18:15,180 michel to that it is a place where there are 338 00:18:20,390 --> 00:18:18,360 talents from all over the world and a 339 00:18:23,060 --> 00:18:20,400 very important thing in the work that 340 00:18:27,050 --> 00:18:23,070 both michelle and I do is 341 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:27,060 international collaboration and here every 342 00:18:32,270 --> 00:18:29,730 day I work with collaborators from 343 00:18:34,340 --> 00:18:32,280 all parts of the world of 344 00:18:36,710 --> 00:18:34,350 academic institutions of space agencies from 345 00:18:38,270 --> 00:18:36,720 different parts of the world and when one 346 00:18:40,820 --> 00:18:38,280 thinks about issues related to the 347 00:18:43,580 --> 00:18:40,830 environment, the problems are not 348 00:18:46,910 --> 00:18:43,590 just regional or from country to country, that is, 349 00:18:49,910 --> 00:18:46,920 they are problems that must be seen at a 350 00:18:51,020 --> 00:18:49,920 global level, they transcend borders and therefore that 351 00:18:53,930 --> 00:18:51,030 is so important the 352 00:18:56,330 --> 00:18:53,940 internal collaboration and look very well now let's move on 353 00:19:01,700 --> 00:18:56,340 to our library the 354 00:19:01,710 --> 00:19:05,260 and opportunely they 355 00:19:10,910 --> 00:19:07,270 approach the camera and ask the 356 00:19:24,050 --> 00:19:13,230 the question I had they 357 00:19:30,020 --> 00:19:28,460 listening that the question is 358 00:19:33,090 --> 00:19:30,030 discontinuous 359 00:19:36,360 --> 00:19:33,100 but that they are going to send another six here in the 360 00:19:38,490 --> 00:19:36,370 coming years if God gives us 361 00:19:41,850 --> 00:19:38,500 answers to questions that they had ok 362 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:41,860 very well thank you thank you for everything because 363 00:19:46,610 --> 00:19:43,930 we went to the library of another union 364 00:19:48,500 --> 00:19:46,620 any questions 365 00:19:51,050 --> 00:19:48,510 amen 366 00:19:53,090 --> 00:19:51,060 we want to know what the most 367 00:19:56,169 --> 00:19:53,100 exciting part of your work what do 368 00:20:00,820 --> 00:19:56,179 you like the most 369 00:20:03,460 --> 00:20:00,830 that is a difficult question because everything 370 00:20:05,619 --> 00:20:03,470 is fascinating about my work being a 371 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:05,629 scientist first it is a lifestyle 372 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:08,090 I say it is 373 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:10,610 living what I am passionate about is how to 374 00:20:16,180 --> 00:20:12,770 practice my hobby everyday i 375 00:20:18,399 --> 00:20:16,190 don't see it as a job it's something i 376 00:20:20,950 --> 00:20:18,409 enjoy so much i would do it 377 00:20:22,990 --> 00:20:20,960 anyway if it wasn't my job and every 378 00:20:25,659 --> 00:20:23,000 day is different for me it's the life of 379 00:20:26,950 --> 00:20:25,669 a scientist it has many 380 00:20:29,529 --> 00:20:26,960 different aspects 381 00:20:32,380 --> 00:20:29,539 i have to be involved in my 382 00:20:34,510 --> 00:20:32,390 research I have to keep up 383 00:20:36,909 --> 00:20:34,520 with the latest research 384 00:20:38,830 --> 00:20:36,919 being done in my field I have to 385 00:20:41,850 --> 00:20:38,840 be publishing my latest 386 00:20:43,990 --> 00:20:41,860 results I go to conferences to 387 00:20:45,940 --> 00:20:44,000 collaborate and talk with other 388 00:20:48,130 --> 00:20:45,950 scientists and to present my work 389 00:20:50,950 --> 00:20:48,140 I also go to the field to collect 390 00:20:53,340 --> 00:20:50,960 field data like this which is very very varied and 391 00:20:57,750 --> 00:20:53,350 everything is fascinating 392 00:21:00,000 --> 00:20:57,760 very well if what is going to be said that 393 00:21:02,940 --> 00:21:00,010 in my case right now I am doing 394 00:21:04,590 --> 00:21:02,950 research but before in the 395 00:21:06,060 --> 00:21:04,600 last five years as I was 396 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:06,070 working on what someone calls 397 00:21:09,330 --> 00:21:07,690 skin a mission of I fly a flight 398 00:21:11,430 --> 00:21:09,340 project 399 00:21:13,130 --> 00:21:11,440 so the lifestyle is very 400 00:21:16,430 --> 00:21:13,140 different from the 401 00:21:19,690 --> 00:21:16,440 research lifestyle simply yes so it 402 00:21:22,710 --> 00:21:19,700 requires a lot of travel we 403 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:22,720 had to constantly travel 404 00:21:27,490 --> 00:21:25,010 as I mentioned before to Europe to 405 00:21:29,259 --> 00:21:27,500 Italy to have meetings with the 406 00:21:31,810 --> 00:21:29,269 engineers and scientists from the 407 00:21:33,340 --> 00:21:31,820 Italian space agency then we have to 408 00:21:34,899 --> 00:21:33,350 meet on other occasions with all 409 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:34,909 the scientists and engineers of all the 410 00:21:39,490 --> 00:21:37,010 mission of all the instruments to 411 00:21:42,070 --> 00:21:39,500 decide the different non- 412 00:21:43,860 --> 00:21:42,080 scientific objectives of the mission and then I 413 00:21:47,049 --> 00:21:43,870 have also worked a lot like doing many 414 00:21:48,610 --> 00:21:47,059 many tests of the instruments with 415 00:21:50,830 --> 00:21:48,620 which it has been we have collaborated a lot 416 00:21:53,289 --> 00:21:50,840 with lockheed martin so i 417 00:21:54,610 --> 00:21:53,299 had to go to colorado to test the 418 00:21:56,919 --> 00:21:54,620 integration of the instruments in the 419 00:21:58,690 --> 00:21:56,929 satellite before i had to do all 420 00:22:02,259 --> 00:21:58,700 these tests of the instruments 421 00:22:04,299 --> 00:22:02,269 in the different centers where we 422 00:22:08,110 --> 00:22:04,309 design them we go these have been a 423 00:22:09,759 --> 00:22:08,120 lifestyle totally quite intense but 424 00:22:12,330 --> 00:22:09,769 very interesting because it was my dream to 425 00:22:16,299 --> 00:22:12,340 really work on a mission that is going 426 00:22:19,180 --> 00:22:16,309 to jupiter not to go and see that everything went very 427 00:22:21,070 --> 00:22:19,190 well we launched it in august 2011 428 00:22:23,649 --> 00:22:21,080 and it is on its way to jupiter it will arrive in 429 00:22:26,259 --> 00:22:23,659 2016 so it has been that lifestyle 430 00:22:28,719 --> 00:22:26,269 super super frantic but 431 00:22:30,009 --> 00:22:28,729 very interesting and now I am going back 432 00:22:32,169 --> 00:22:30,019 to do a little more research 433 00:22:33,909 --> 00:22:32,179 and as the ica has said it is very similar to what it 434 00:22:36,839 --> 00:22:33,919 says since you have to 435 00:22:39,459 --> 00:22:36,849 always be studying and developing things 436 00:22:42,129 --> 00:22:39,469 but the truth is that both are 437 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:42,139 very interesting and we think it's 438 00:22:46,029 --> 00:22:44,690 a game we're not enjoying it I 439 00:22:49,169 --> 00:22:46,039 really don't think it's working 440 00:22:52,599 --> 00:22:49,179 I think it's [ __ ] good since it's very good 441 00:22:54,129 --> 00:22:52,609 very good well let's move on to another question 442 00:22:56,129 --> 00:22:54,139 from the public they are sent to víctor 443 00:22:58,539 --> 00:22:56,139 candelas a very interesting question 444 00:23:01,599 --> 00:22:58,549 some of you consider that 445 00:23:04,539 --> 00:23:01,609 The relationship between 446 00:23:10,060 --> 00:23:04,549 astronomical science and philosophical and theological reflection is fruitful. 447 00:23:24,620 --> 00:23:18,080 This is a deep question and I do 448 00:23:32,210 --> 00:23:28,430 direct answer to that question as a scientist or 449 00:23:34,700 --> 00:23:32,220 we know the scientific part and the part 450 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:34,710 that is not the data that the different 451 00:23:40,940 --> 00:23:38,730 satellites they provide us so that we 452 00:23:42,919 --> 00:23:40,950 only see that aspect, no, but I think 453 00:23:45,799 --> 00:23:42,929 that if one starts thinking about beyond, 454 00:23:47,450 --> 00:23:45,809 if there is a very philosophical and very theological part of 455 00:23:52,730 --> 00:23:49,610 the universe, how big is it that there is 456 00:23:55,100 --> 00:23:52,740 beyond how it was created, that is, nothing more? 457 00:24:00,470 --> 00:23:55,110 Thinking about the concept of distances 458 00:24:04,090 --> 00:24:00,480 and time is something that is far 459 00:24:07,570 --> 00:24:04,100 beyond what one relates 460 00:24:09,669 --> 00:24:07,580 very well to this question, the next one I 461 00:24:12,159 --> 00:24:09,679 received from the public, I am going to address it 462 00:24:15,010 --> 00:24:12,169 to my chela because it has something to do 463 00:24:17,919 --> 00:24:15,020 with what she mentioned before and they 464 00:24:20,799 --> 00:24:17,929 ask us is it possible to enter 465 00:24:24,130 --> 00:24:20,809 NASA to work in science as a 466 00:24:26,740 --> 00:24:24,140 person without a career in science or 467 00:24:28,630 --> 00:24:26,750 aeronautics what advice would you give to 468 00:24:31,450 --> 00:24:28,640 people who dream of working in 469 00:24:33,250 --> 00:24:31,460 dance so that they can enter and I 470 00:24:35,770 --> 00:24:33,260 would also like it to cover a bit of the 471 00:24:38,260 --> 00:24:35,780 angle of also to people who do 472 00:24:39,970 --> 00:24:38,270 not want or are not necessarily 473 00:24:41,890 --> 00:24:39,980 interested in science in that aspect 474 00:24:45,580 --> 00:24:41,900 but who would also like to contribute to the 475 00:24:47,869 --> 00:24:45,590 space program yes exactly it refers to 476 00:24:51,109 --> 00:24:47,879 what I have commented before 477 00:24:54,349 --> 00:24:51,119 if it is very true NASA is huge and there are 478 00:24:56,569 --> 00:24:54,359 a lot of people working and obviously 479 00:25:00,919 --> 00:24:56,579 not all of us are not all of us are 480 00:25:04,609 --> 00:25:00,929 scientists-engineers so the field 481 00:25:06,469 --> 00:25:04,619 of space involves many, let's say, 482 00:25:09,649 --> 00:25:06,479 different fields not many areas of 483 00:25:12,469 --> 00:25:09,659 knowledge so it's very important, 484 00:25:14,269 --> 00:25:12,479 for example, all the lawyers who 485 00:25:18,199 --> 00:25:14,279 work in all this law 486 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:18,209 space is what twitter twitter 487 00:25:23,329 --> 00:25:21,690 space there are many regulations and many 488 00:25:25,999 --> 00:25:23,339 things that were kind of in progress 489 00:25:27,949 --> 00:25:26,009 because we still have to 490 00:25:30,019 --> 00:25:27,959 regulate all this kind of thing, no, 491 00:25:32,419 --> 00:25:30,029 so this is a field where people 492 00:25:34,159 --> 00:25:32,429 who, for example, are lawyers and 493 00:25:36,109 --> 00:25:34,169 want to get involved In the space field, there is 494 00:25:40,249 --> 00:25:36,119 a lot of work to be done in this 495 00:25:43,519 --> 00:25:40,259 sense. For example, economists 496 00:25:43,519 --> 00:25:45,349 and people who work in business matters, 497 00:25:48,700 --> 00:25:47,389 it is very important to have money to be 498 00:25:50,889 --> 00:25:48,710 able to 499 00:25:52,930 --> 00:25:50,899 do space missions, so 500 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:52,940 I think that having good people who 501 00:25:57,880 --> 00:25:55,490 are good people in finance 502 00:26:00,279 --> 00:25:57,890 and In economics it is essential to be able to 503 00:26:03,789 --> 00:26:00,289 have sufficient resources to be 504 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:03,799 able to send a mission because it requires 505 00:26:10,289 --> 00:26:07,850 money so that is very important, that is, 506 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:10,299 there are many, there are many fields that 507 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:14,649 are also necessary in the artistic field. 508 00:26:20,049 --> 00:26:17,799 a director of 509 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:20,059 actel and then they create different 510 00:26:25,330 --> 00:26:22,970 exhibitions that are also shown here 511 00:26:27,549 --> 00:26:25,340 in leather and in other places and then they 512 00:26:30,970 --> 00:26:27,559 show the missions a little of how well 513 00:26:32,919 --> 00:26:30,980 they do and it is very interesting to see that 514 00:26:36,250 --> 00:26:32,929 we mean that 515 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:36,260 you can direct all kinds of fields to the space and 516 00:26:42,789 --> 00:26:39,490 you can work in the space sector 517 00:26:44,799 --> 00:26:42,799 so I think it is very important 518 00:26:46,750 --> 00:26:44,809 then for example if you think all this 519 00:26:48,820 --> 00:26:46,760 is scientific not for example the doctors 520 00:26:51,340 --> 00:26:48,830 who work to help 521 00:26:54,430 --> 00:26:51,350 astronauts then there are doctors who 522 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:54,440 specialize in helping astronauts 523 00:27:00,249 --> 00:26:56,570 astronauts to do all the 524 00:27:02,110 --> 00:27:00,259 tests to be able to develop their career, that 525 00:27:03,789 --> 00:27:02,120 is, there are many careers that you don't 526 00:27:06,759 --> 00:27:03,799 have to be purely 527 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:06,769 scientific engineering and biology, there is so much 528 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:08,450 research in different fields that 529 00:27:12,369 --> 00:27:11,090 I think that really almost any 530 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:12,379 career that you study 531 00:27:16,659 --> 00:27:14,330 if you want to give the direction later, no 532 00:27:20,139 --> 00:27:16,669 of space, that is, if you really 533 00:27:22,790 --> 00:27:20,149 like space, there are almost all the 534 00:27:26,300 --> 00:27:22,800 careers, well, orient in this direction, 535 00:27:29,030 --> 00:27:26,310 very well, very well, let's move on to Maria Jose, 536 00:27:32,660 --> 00:27:29,040 something, no other questions, 537 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:32,670 if you ask me, especially for Erika, I 538 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:33,690 think there is still a little bit of 539 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:35,490 perception. that working to earn 540 00:27:42,050 --> 00:27:39,090 is working on space things and I 541 00:27:46,159 --> 00:27:42,060 would like you to talk a little about everything 542 00:27:48,979 --> 00:27:46,169 that NASA does with our planet 543 00:27:53,330 --> 00:27:48,989 if NASA has a great focus on 544 00:27:55,190 --> 00:27:53,340 our planet earth we have 15 545 00:27:57,349 --> 00:27:55,200 satellites that are in orbit around 546 00:28:00,080 --> 00:27:57,359 the earth observing the different 547 00:28:02,470 --> 00:28:00,090 components of our environment and 548 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:02,480 these satellites help us understand 549 00:28:07,549 --> 00:28:05,129 global processes and that is the 550 00:28:10,129 --> 00:28:07,559 advantage of having satellites in space 551 00:28:12,710 --> 00:28:10,139 observing the earth that 552 00:28:15,019 --> 00:28:12,720 are continuously observing the same areas and 553 00:28:16,849 --> 00:28:15,029 we can see how 554 00:28:21,169 --> 00:28:16,859 different ecosystems are changing or if they are 555 00:28:24,229 --> 00:28:21,179 changing one so if there is a big 556 00:28:27,349 --> 00:28:24,239 emphasis we study the earth in three 557 00:28:30,169 --> 00:28:27,359 different main areas the oceans 558 00:28:32,239 --> 00:28:30,179 the atmosphere and the continents and how 559 00:28:34,519 --> 00:28:32,249 they are all interrelated so 560 00:28:39,259 --> 00:28:34,529 as I mentioned earlier by 561 00:28:42,409 --> 00:28:39,269 2015 we will be putting 6 562 00:28:45,259 --> 00:28:42,419 earth observing satellites in orbit 563 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:45,269 very good and María José you have another 564 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:47,810 question related to that 565 00:28:53,020 --> 00:28:50,930 if you mention the importance of the 566 00:28:55,330 --> 00:28:53,030 satellites but for example in your case you 567 00:28:56,530 --> 00:28:55,340 also do the field work and I 568 00:28:57,930 --> 00:28:56,540 would like you to explain how 569 00:29:01,090 --> 00:28:57,940 the two works 570 00:29:02,590 --> 00:29:01,100 absolutely complement each other so I use the 571 00:29:05,950 --> 00:29:02,600 satellite images to do 572 00:29:08,260 --> 00:29:05,960 large-scale studies but 573 00:29:10,420 --> 00:29:08,270 I need what we call validation 574 00:29:13,590 --> 00:29:10,430 I need to know exactly what is 575 00:29:16,660 --> 00:29:13,600 happening in certain places so I 576 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:16,670 can extrapolate so I can 577 00:29:23,049 --> 00:29:19,610 identify those same places 578 00:29:25,750 --> 00:29:23,059 within the images to larger areas 579 00:29:29,169 --> 00:29:25,760 so that's why it's important 580 00:29:31,690 --> 00:29:29,179 go to the field and be able to understand the 581 00:29:33,549 --> 00:29:31,700 different ecosystems and he studied wetlands a lot 582 00:29:37,610 --> 00:29:33,559 for example i 583 00:29:42,380 --> 00:29:40,640 humidity very specific and very important 584 00:29:45,110 --> 00:29:42,390 for him 585 00:29:47,150 --> 00:29:45,120 in terms of water resources and in 586 00:29:50,510 --> 00:29:47,160 terms of methane carbon emissions 587 00:29:52,610 --> 00:29:50,520 so if i can understand and know 588 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:52,620 exactly what's going on with the 589 00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:55,530 wetlands in one location and I can 590 00:30:00,680 --> 00:29:57,450 identify them on the satellite images 591 00:30:04,250 --> 00:30:00,690 so I can identify other places 592 00:30:07,030 --> 00:30:04,260 that look the same in areas outside of my 593 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:07,040 study area very good very good 594 00:30:16,130 --> 00:30:09,570 let's move on to today's library with my 595 00:30:22,550 --> 00:30:18,110 still haven't heard you 596 00:30:26,150 --> 00:30:22,560 try again now and agree that we've 597 00:30:30,110 --> 00:30:26,160 learned about the space pro that just 598 00:30:32,330 --> 00:30:30,120 left that the solar system and 599 00:30:37,629 --> 00:30:32,340 this was done by natalie who is 20 600 00:30:45,410 --> 00:30:41,350 what is it i'm going yesterday actually just just 601 00:30:49,790 --> 00:30:45,420 just to be in the news 602 00:30:51,890 --> 00:30:49,800 the debate if I go today now it has left 603 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:51,900 our solar system or it has not left 604 00:30:57,170 --> 00:30:54,090 our solar system so there are 605 00:30:58,910 --> 00:30:57,180 two different currents nascar and I know 606 00:31:02,150 --> 00:30:58,920 that I am going yesterday it has not yet left 607 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:02,160 our solar system and there are other 608 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:04,410 entities academics that are saying 609 00:31:10,930 --> 00:31:08,730 that it's out now so we're going to wait a 610 00:31:12,820 --> 00:31:10,940 couple more years to 611 00:31:14,170 --> 00:31:12,830 see what the results are but what 612 00:31:17,110 --> 00:31:14,180 is happening now is that there are 613 00:31:20,350 --> 00:31:17,120 solar winds or energy from the sun 614 00:31:23,710 --> 00:31:20,360 and we are still thinking about that energy 615 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:23,720 from the sun but we are there are also 616 00:31:27,610 --> 00:31:25,250 indicators that there are winds from 617 00:31:29,590 --> 00:31:27,620 different directions, not only from behind 618 00:31:32,110 --> 00:31:29,600 that come from the sun but from different 619 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:32,120 sides and that without here that we are in a 620 00:31:37,630 --> 00:31:35,810 stage or in a part of our 621 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:37,640 solar system that is probably in transition 622 00:31:42,940 --> 00:31:40,730 and we do not know how wide It is that 623 00:31:44,740 --> 00:31:42,950 transition zone but if we have determined 624 00:31:46,450 --> 00:31:44,750 that we are still within the solar system it 625 00:31:46,460 --> 00:31:50,870 is the position of the cream 626 00:31:58,430 --> 00:31:53,720 very well let's go to the high road library 627 00:32:02,269 --> 00:32:00,470 any questions not yet not very well 628 00:32:04,940 --> 00:32:02,279 because we follow a question from the public 629 00:32:08,149 --> 00:32:04,950 this is not sent by Luis Eduardo 630 00:32:11,299 --> 00:32:08,159 sterling stop who asks us what 631 00:32:13,249 --> 00:32:11,309 additional academic requirements 632 00:32:16,730 --> 00:32:13,259 NASA applicants must have and mentions for 633 00:32:18,470 --> 00:32:16,740 example language behavior and 634 00:32:20,539 --> 00:32:18,480 personal characteristics think 635 00:32:23,060 --> 00:32:20,549 about those other attributes that 636 00:32:25,999 --> 00:32:23,070 help you to work and do 637 00:32:29,119 --> 00:32:26,009 your job well there at nasa yes exactly 638 00:32:32,210 --> 00:32:29,129 I think that it is as important as having 639 00:32:34,190 --> 00:32:32,220 a technical training or any type 640 00:32:37,249 --> 00:32:34,200 of career that you study, not to work 641 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:37,259 in NASA, it is also very important to be 642 00:32:43,629 --> 00:32:38,970 able to work as a team with other 643 00:32:46,519 --> 00:32:43,639 people, to have the ability to 644 00:32:49,460 --> 00:32:46,529 work with people not only from other 645 00:32:51,350 --> 00:32:49,470 countries like We have commented before on the 646 00:32:53,210 --> 00:32:51,360 radio about people from other countries of other 647 00:32:55,549 --> 00:32:53,220 cultures who have another way of 648 00:32:57,560 --> 00:32:55,559 communicating, so you have to have a 649 00:33:00,369 --> 00:32:57,570 certain level of emotional intelligence. 650 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:00,379 I think it is very important to be able to 651 00:33:04,879 --> 00:33:02,730 understand other people, to have an 652 00:33:06,230 --> 00:33:04,889 open mind, to be tolerant with other 653 00:33:08,090 --> 00:33:06,240 people. 654 00:33:10,460 --> 00:33:08,100 Because of course, obviously we have grown up 655 00:33:12,169 --> 00:33:10,470 in different countries and so 656 00:33:13,490 --> 00:33:12,179 what for you means something 657 00:33:15,020 --> 00:33:13,500 totally different to other people, 658 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:15,030 then you have to have the ability 659 00:33:19,130 --> 00:33:16,890 to see the world 660 00:33:21,470 --> 00:33:19,140 through the eyes of another person, not to 661 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:21,480 be able to understand how they think, not today 662 00:33:28,460 --> 00:33:23,370 and So I think it's very important 663 00:33:31,940 --> 00:33:28,470 not to have that ability to 664 00:33:33,710 --> 00:33:31,950 understand and then also because 665 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:33,720 I think it's very important to have a 666 00:33:39,169 --> 00:33:37,290 bit where people are, not the 667 00:33:43,779 --> 00:33:39,179 social process to be able to talk to other people 668 00:33:45,519 --> 00:33:43,789 while enjoying working with other people I 669 00:33:47,379 --> 00:33:45,529 think it's It is also something very 670 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:47,389 important because if you only 671 00:33:51,909 --> 00:33:49,850 do science and you only work on a 672 00:33:53,889 --> 00:33:51,919 very specialized thing and maybe you don't, 673 00:33:56,919 --> 00:33:53,899 but always as we have mentioned 674 00:33:58,210 --> 00:33:56,929 before it is very important even if you work 675 00:34:00,159 --> 00:33:58,220 not as a specialist, here you always 676 00:34:01,690 --> 00:34:00,169 work on your own, well in the end you have 677 00:34:03,549 --> 00:34:01,700 that collaborating with other scientists and 678 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:03,559 seven other people is very 679 00:34:07,239 --> 00:34:05,690 important then and then you are in a 680 00:34:09,220 --> 00:34:07,249 flight project like I have been, it is 681 00:34:10,809 --> 00:34:09,230 fundamental because if it is not 682 00:34:12,549 --> 00:34:10,819 impossible I have worked with hundreds of 683 00:34:14,859 --> 00:34:12,559 people you have to have the ability 684 00:34:16,569 --> 00:34:14,869 to speak in different Languages ​​is one 685 00:34:16,569 --> 00:34:18,629 thing, what I was saying about languages ​​is true. 686 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:20,460 I speak 45 languages ​​and that has 687 00:34:23,579 --> 00:34:22,690 made it much easier for me to be 688 00:34:25,829 --> 00:34:23,589 involved in our 689 00:34:27,329 --> 00:34:25,839 international projects, because of course having 690 00:34:29,220 --> 00:34:27,339 this collaboration with people from Spain 691 00:34:30,690 --> 00:34:29,230 and Italy said, well, Michelle to 692 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:30,700 college. Italian to perfect because 693 00:34:35,940 --> 00:34:34,210 apart from having the technical preparation, 694 00:34:38,190 --> 00:34:35,950 speaking is the language they speak 695 00:34:40,799 --> 00:34:38,200 so it was very, very 696 00:34:43,799 --> 00:34:40,809 important to the meeting and it made clear unions 697 00:34:45,180 --> 00:34:43,809 much easier so not 698 00:34:47,250 --> 00:34:45,190 only the language but also I understand 699 00:34:49,169 --> 00:34:47,260 European culture Italian culture 700 00:34:51,089 --> 00:34:49,179 Spanish culture so in our 701 00:34:53,250 --> 00:34:51,099 interaction with Italians it was very 702 00:34:55,259 --> 00:34:53,260 easy while other people who 703 00:34:58,109 --> 00:34:55,269 perhaps did not have that experience because they did 704 00:35:00,240 --> 00:34:58,119 not understand certain things well so 705 00:35:02,599 --> 00:35:00,250 I think it is very important if you have 706 00:35:04,490 --> 00:35:02,609 the possibility of studying languages 707 00:35:07,410 --> 00:35:04,500 the more the better 708 00:35:09,779 --> 00:35:07,420 speaking of Spanish for Right now, for example, 709 00:35:11,430 --> 00:35:09,789 Spanish, the latest 710 00:35:12,870 --> 00:35:11,440 statistics that I have read, is that it is the 711 00:35:15,089 --> 00:35:12,880 second most spoken language 712 00:35:17,130 --> 00:35:15,099 in the world after Chinese, so 713 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:17,140 having this power of such a rich and 714 00:35:22,140 --> 00:35:20,410 important language is essential, so 715 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:22,150 the more languages ​​you speak and how many, 716 00:35:27,260 --> 00:35:24,490 the more capacity You will have 717 00:35:29,270 --> 00:35:27,270 better with other people, 718 00:35:31,730 --> 00:35:29,280 better and more successful, you will have all your 719 00:35:34,250 --> 00:35:31,740 projects, which I think is important and 720 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:34,260 absolutely I think it is one 721 00:35:39,890 --> 00:35:36,930 more thing to add, it is of the utmost importance, 722 00:35:42,590 --> 00:35:39,900 communication is being able to communicate 723 00:35:45,620 --> 00:35:42,600 effectively both in writing and 724 00:35:48,950 --> 00:35:45,630 orally because it is essential. for 725 00:35:50,690 --> 00:35:48,960 us to be able to communicate in our 726 00:35:52,490 --> 00:35:50,700 results what we are doing not 727 00:35:55,580 --> 00:35:52,500 only with other scientists but with the 728 00:35:57,920 --> 00:35:55,590 general public, very well, another 729 00:36:01,040 --> 00:35:57,930 question and this room I am going to direct to 730 00:36:04,240 --> 00:36:01,050 erika who have been the role models 731 00:36:07,630 --> 00:36:04,250 that have motivated you in your career 732 00:36:11,830 --> 00:36:07,640 the models An excellent 733 00:36:16,900 --> 00:36:14,440 I believe that mainly in my mother 734 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:16,910 my mother has been a motivating force 735 00:36:22,690 --> 00:36:19,610 in my life, she has always supported me and 736 00:36:26,820 --> 00:36:22,700 has always encouraged me to follow my 737 00:36:30,340 --> 00:36:26,830 dreams and in terms of 738 00:36:33,490 --> 00:36:30,350 Latin American models that we all know. 739 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:33,500 I would say there are 21 is franklin chang 740 00:36:39,370 --> 00:36:36,170 diaz frank and chang diaz is a 741 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:39,380 costa rican astronaut a person who has had 742 00:36:47,470 --> 00:36:42,890 an incredible journey he flew in the 743 00:36:49,810 --> 00:36:47,480 space station seven times seven 744 00:36:52,660 --> 00:36:49,820 different times so he is an 745 00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:52,670 amazing person with many accomplishments and the other 746 00:37:01,240 --> 00:36:57,410 person is is shakira shakira because 747 00:37:03,580 --> 00:37:01,250 -he said- shakira because despite all 748 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:03,590 her successes she is a person who 749 00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:06,890 has never forgotten the needs 750 00:37:12,730 --> 00:37:09,650 of people with few resources 751 00:37:15,309 --> 00:37:12,740 and has a foundation to focus on 752 00:37:17,559 --> 00:37:15,319 that kind of thing not bare feet 753 00:37:21,370 --> 00:37:17,569 is called the foundation, so I admire 754 00:37:23,259 --> 00:37:21,380 that a lot and also that Shakira dances in 755 00:37:26,519 --> 00:37:23,269 a way that I would love to be able to 756 00:37:35,319 --> 00:37:31,720 very well.

00:39:01,130 --> 00:38:58,350 preparation preparing yourself well and having 790 00:39:05,860 --> 00:39:01,140 your goals clear I simply go 791 00:39:10,420 --> 00:39:08,590 very well now let's go to the 792 00:39:13,230 --> 00:39:10,430 old town library and a hall for the next 793 00:39:19,290 --> 00:39:16,109 although the next one is made by 794 00:39:21,900 --> 00:39:19,300 álex who is 10 years old it starts so if 795 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:21,910 nasa flew for the first to go into 796 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:30,570 the first to putting a satellite in 797 00:39:35,580 --> 00:39:33,370 space it was the russians with the satellite 798 00:39:39,030 --> 00:39:35,590 called sputnik a couple of months 799 00:39:40,710 --> 00:39:39,040 later the usa exposed the first set the 800 00:39:44,610 --> 00:39:40,720 first american satellite in 801 00:39:46,450 --> 00:39:44,620 space this was in 1958 called 802 00:39:51,820 --> 00:39:46,460 explore one 803 00:39:53,950 --> 00:39:51,830 and very well another question we received 804 00:39:57,070 --> 00:39:53,960 from the public is the following this came from 805 00:39:59,589 --> 00:39:57,080 juan camilo buitrago casas I think we are going to 806 00:40:01,359 --> 00:39:59,599 address it to michelle what do you 807 00:40:04,420 --> 00:40:01,369 think are the 808 00:40:06,670 --> 00:40:04,430 most relevant scientific objectives were in astronomy 809 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:06,680 to be explored in the 810 00:40:12,700 --> 00:40:08,690 coming decades 811 00:40:14,620 --> 00:40:12,710 it is a long question but well a large 812 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:14,630 part of it For example, this is a 813 00:40:20,770 --> 00:40:18,290 sample of the Juno mission in the case of 814 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:20,780 Junos, or what we want is to 815 00:40:25,870 --> 00:40:23,770 learn as much as possible about Jupiter, 816 00:40:29,490 --> 00:40:25,880 so what the 817 00:40:33,609 --> 00:40:29,500 instruments on the 'Juno' spacecraft are going to do is 818 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:33,619 take images and data With 819 00:40:39,150 --> 00:40:35,210 tape instruments, different wavelengths, 820 00:40:41,380 --> 00:40:39,160 frequencies that are going to go to 821 00:40:44,109 --> 00:40:41,390 penetrate different depths in the 822 00:40:45,910 --> 00:40:44,119 atmosphere of Jupiter, and then we are going to 823 00:40:49,270 --> 00:40:45,920 know that we are going to obtain from 824 00:40:50,770 --> 00:40:49,280 Jupiter from the interior of Jupiter, it will 825 00:40:53,470 --> 00:40:50,780 help us to understand fundamental processes 826 00:40:57,550 --> 00:40:53,480 of the formation and initial evolution 827 00:40:59,559 --> 00:40:57,560 of Jupiter and the solar system and 828 00:41:02,349 --> 00:40:59,569 then understanding how 829 00:41:03,430 --> 00:41:02,359 other planets like Earth could be created, that is 830 00:41:05,290 --> 00:41:03,440 fundamental, 831 00:41:08,020 --> 00:41:05,300 so I think part of the 832 00:41:10,810 --> 00:41:08,030 objectives of the entire 833 00:41:12,940 --> 00:41:10,820 astronomy program is to understand 834 00:41:14,740 --> 00:41:12,950 where there are other planets that 835 00:41:18,490 --> 00:41:14,750 can be like the earth where they have been 836 00:41:20,410 --> 00:41:18,500 able to form what kind of processes 837 00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:20,420 gave rise to planets like the earth 838 00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:23,330 that then at the end of the place 839 00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:25,370 a planet that may have life in the 840 00:41:30,460 --> 00:41:27,650 case of one this mission that commented to 841 00:41:32,110 --> 00:41:30,470 jupiter in which he worked and we are going 842 00:41:35,530 --> 00:41:32,120 We want to know how much water there is on 843 00:41:37,900 --> 00:41:35,540 Jupiter, so discovering this is the 844 00:41:39,550 --> 00:41:37,910 most important piece of information will give us much 845 00:41:41,170 --> 00:41:39,560 more information about how the earth was formed 846 00:41:44,170 --> 00:41:41,180 and how water arose on 847 00:41:46,180 --> 00:41:44,180 earth and how this whole process will 848 00:41:48,060 --> 00:41:46,190 help us understand how it can the emergence 849 00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:48,070 of water or life on other planets 850 00:41:54,190 --> 00:41:50,690 so I think because that is a large part 851 00:41:56,770 --> 00:41:54,200 of the objectives that NASA has at 852 00:41:59,140 --> 00:41:56,780 that time in the 853 00:42:01,690 --> 00:41:59,150 good case if these manned and unmanned missions 854 00:42:04,930 --> 00:42:01,700 as you know there is the 855 00:42:08,170 --> 00:42:04,940 curiosity mission that is called the ms Marsans 856 00:42:10,210 --> 00:42:08,180 Life Lab of hers and the one 857 00:42:12,370 --> 00:42:10,220 that landed on Mars recently with great success, 858 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:12,380 so 859 00:42:18,220 --> 00:42:15,290 there are missions like I installed, that first the 860 00:42:20,260 --> 00:42:18,230 idea is to send robots to obtain more 861 00:42:22,690 --> 00:42:20,270 data on the ground and then 862 00:42:25,230 --> 00:42:22,700 later to be able to send crews or 863 00:42:28,420 --> 00:42:25,240 manned missions, human missions to 864 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:28,430 Mars In a few years we hope 865 00:42:34,299 --> 00:42:30,770 then the important thing is to have good 866 00:42:36,309 --> 00:42:34,309 planning and that during these years we 867 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:36,319 can have these objectives 868 00:42:43,109 --> 00:42:40,130 so that in the end we can colonize 869 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:43,119 other planets or at least we hope 870 00:42:48,910 --> 00:42:45,770 so 871 00:42:51,790 --> 00:42:48,920 another question from the public I will 872 00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:51,800 direct it to you Erika is how she balances her 873 00:42:57,840 --> 00:42:55,330 work with her personal life. 874 00:42:59,790 --> 00:42:57,850 That's a super good question because 875 00:43:02,010 --> 00:42:59,800 as I mentioned before, my work 876 00:43:04,590 --> 00:43:02,020 is like my hobby and it's something that I 877

It 967 00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:02,680 is also related to what 968 00:47:07,650 --> 00:47:04,810 we were talking about before because when 969 00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:07,660 they also asked us about personality and 970 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:08,770 that is one thing that I forgot to 971 00:47:13,170 --> 00:47:10,930 say beforehand and that is that no matter what 972 00:47:14,910 --> 00:47:13,180 you know you can know a lot but if you do not 973 00:47:16,770 --> 00:47:14,920 communicate it to others no one will ever 974 00:47:18,150 --> 00:47:16,780 know what you do or know the good 975 00:47:21,930 --> 00:47:18,160 results you have been able to To have, then, 976 00:47:23,820 --> 00:47:21,940 is very important, very well, in the 977 00:47:27,859 --> 00:47:23,830 author's library, or a hall, another 978 00:47:33,739 --> 00:47:31,249 if this is our last question, how 979 00:47:36,650 --> 00:47:33,749 did you learn as girls about 980 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:36,660 space by reading books or listening to the 981 00:47:48,370 --> 00:47:45,670 since I was a little girl, I don't know 982 00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:48,380 why Because my family hasn't 983 00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:51,170 worked in the aerospace sector but I don't 984 00:47:54,940 --> 00:47:52,850 know, it's something that has always been one thing, it 985 00:47:57,100 --> 00:47:54,950 's in me then, for example, on 986 00:47:58,360 --> 00:47:57,110 television I saw the launches and it was 987 00:48:00,610 --> 00:47:58,370 that they came out, 988 00:48:02,980 --> 00:48:00,620 tears came to my eyes because the to see 989 00:48:04,990 --> 00:48:02,990 that you can find spaces outside 990 00:48:06,850 --> 00:48:05,000 our planet, I don't know about it, something 991 00:48:09,070 --> 00:48:06,860 exciting that I don't know where it 992 00:48:11,350 --> 00:48:09,080 came from, honestly, but I've always 993 00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:11,360 had this passion and so I've 994 00:48:16,420 --> 00:48:13,490 followed it, that is, always being crazy or power 995 00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:16,430 for space and these things and then 996 00:48:21,220 --> 00:48:18,650 Also in Spain I have been lucky in 997 00:48:23,140 --> 00:48:21,230 Madrid we have the complex one of the 998 00:48:25,090 --> 00:48:23,150 three antenna complexes of the deep space 999 00:48:27,220 --> 00:48:25,100 network which is the network of 1000 00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:27,230 space antennas great fund of NASA which is 1001 00:48:32,650 --> 00:48:29,570 called el robledo de chavela and so whether you 1002 00:48:34,750 --> 00:48:32,660 want it or not growing today In Madrid, in 1003 00:48:36,100 --> 00:48:34,760 Madrid, the space news talks a lot, 1004 00:48:38,290 --> 00:48:36,110 almost always there is some news 1005 00:48:40,030 --> 00:48:38,300 and then they talk from time to time, they 1006 00:48:42,460 --> 00:48:40,040 say, oh, well, the Robledo de 1007 00:48:44,140 --> 00:48:42,470 Chavela complex, the monitoring station for 1008 00:48:46,150 --> 00:48:44,150 that satellite, other satellites, so I have 1009 00:48:47,650 --> 00:48:46,160 always been aware of what 1010 00:48:48,069 --> 00:48:47,660 they said about that roble de chavela discovered 1011 00:48:53,289 --> 00:48:51,880 what data they had then if, for example, we 1012 00:48:55,180 --> 00:48:53,299 also have past theses from the 1013 00:48:57,729 --> 00:48:55,190 monitoring center I am always 1014 00:49:00,400 --> 00:48:57,739 very interested in this and I have followed all this 1015 00:49:02,079 --> 00:49:00,410 type of news but honestly it has 1016 00:49:04,029 --> 00:49:02,089 been the cream on me and I have 1017 00:49:05,079 --> 00:49:04,039 followed it and here I'm here but no one has 1018 00:49:07,209 --> 00:49:05,089 put it into my head or told me 1019 00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:07,219 you have to do this backwards my mother 1020 00:49:11,829 --> 00:49:09,170 told me well, calm down if you see that 1021 00:49:14,049 --> 00:49:11,839 the degree is very difficult you relax so 1022 00:49:16,150 --> 00:49:14,059 study something else because she saw me 1023 00:49:18,069 --> 00:49:16,160 that I was there for hours and hours studying 1024 00:49:21,190 --> 00:49:18,079 and the exams are very difficult in 1025 00:49:23,170 --> 00:49:21,200 engineering no but today well no no I'm going 1026 00:49:25,029 --> 00:49:23,180 to continue because I like it and I say like 1027 00:49:27,099 --> 00:49:25,039 erika it's not like we've been 1028 00:49:29,199 --> 00:49:27,109 passionate and I think you need to 1029 00:49:32,790 --> 00:49:29,209 have this passion and this 1030 00:49:35,530 --> 00:49:32,800 perseverance existence to be able 1031 00:49:37,090 --> 00:49:35,540 follow it and be able to do it because if not the 1032 00:49:39,970 --> 00:49:37,100 truth is that it is a lot of work and you have to 1033 00:49:44,069 --> 00:49:39,980 have a lot of effort to make 1034 00:49:47,219 --> 00:49:44,079 if in my case in Panama 1035 00:49:51,569 --> 00:49:47,229 as a child you used to go camping 1036 00:49:54,209 --> 00:49:51,579 frequently and I was always fascinated by 1037 00:49:57,180 --> 00:49:54,219 seeing the stars tropical nights 1038 00:49:59,940 --> 00:49:57,190 are extremely dark and I was fascinated by 1039 00:50:02,190 --> 00:49:59,950 seeing all the stars and thinking about 1040 00:50:04,499 --> 00:50:02,200 all the space programs that 1041 00:50:06,359 --> 00:50:04,509 were already in place at that time and apart from that I 1042 00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:06,369 also watched a lot of Star Trek television 1043 00:50:11,849 --> 00:50:08,650 and that kind of thing but I was more 1044 00:50:15,420 --> 00:50:11,859 passionate about the environment and 1045 00:50:18,569 --> 00:50:15,430 nature and I knew For me, my 1046 00:50:21,449 --> 00:50:18,579 focus was going to be the use of this 1047 00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:21,459 state-of-the-art technology 1048 00:50:26,810 --> 00:50:23,970 for observing the earth. 1049 00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:26,820 Very well, we are running out of 1050 00:50:30,410 --> 00:50:28,410 minutes, so I am going to ask you two 1051 00:50:33,830 --> 00:50:30,420 questions, one each and 1052 00:50:36,290 --> 00:50:33,840 think about what they are for Erika. the 1053 00:50:39,859 --> 00:50:36,300 disciplines of science or engineering 1054 00:50:42,380 --> 00:50:39,869 that are most in demand in your department and 1055 00:50:47,540 --> 00:50:42,390 for Míchel, how difficult is it 1056 00:50:53,130 --> 00:50:50,339 because the disciplines in which there is the most 1057 00:50:55,170 --> 00:50:53,140 demand in my department, the 1058 00:50:58,109 --> 00:50:55,180 truth is that they are all in demand 1059 00:51:00,540 --> 00:50:58,119 because what happens is that 1060 00:51:02,490 --> 00:51:00,550 global processes is not just about one discipline it 1061 00:51:04,620 --> 00:51:02,500 's not just about chemistry or 1062 00:51:08,069 --> 00:51:04,630 biology or ecology or hydrology 1063 00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:08,079 everything is so interrelated that we 1064 00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:10,650 have to be what we call 1065 00:51:15,120 --> 00:51:12,490 multidisciplinary and that's why 1066 00:51:17,910 --> 00:51:15,130 we put together such diverse and 1067 00:51:20,730 --> 00:51:17,920 international teams because not everyone knows 1068 00:51:23,370 --> 00:51:20,740 and I'm not an expert in everything and that's why 1069 00:51:26,550 --> 00:51:23,380 I need experts in my team 1070 00:51:28,859 --> 00:51:26,560 in different areas so you 1071 00:51:30,839 --> 00:51:28,869 couldn't say that there is a 1072 00:51:33,180 --> 00:51:30,849 specific area that is more important than the 1073 00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:33,190 other right now in terms of changes 1074 00:51:36,539 --> 00:51:34,930 climatic and all these things that 1075 00:51:40,589 --> 00:51:36,549 we are seeing 1076 00:51:42,329 --> 00:51:40,599 one thing an area of ​​study that is 1077 00:51:44,999 --> 00:51:42,339 taking more and more emphasis and 1078 00:51:47,370 --> 00:51:45,009 importance are water resources 1079 00:51:50,370 --> 00:51:47,380 water and coincidentally I am working 1080 00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:50,380 on the mission to put a satellite into 1081 00:51:57,239 --> 00:51:53,650 orbit next year in 2014 and the 1082 00:51:59,669 --> 00:51:57,249 purpose of this satellite will be to study 1083 00:52:03,829 --> 00:51:59,679 the water resources of our planet 1084 00:52:06,959 --> 00:52:03,839 and project what the condition will be and 1085 00:52:11,870 --> 00:52:06,969 how access to water will be in 1086 00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:14,550 mitchell, 1087 00:52:22,590 --> 00:52:18,000 well, the truth is that all the You 1088 00:52:26,370 --> 00:52:22,600 have to think about the process of having a mission 1089 00:52:29,220 --> 00:52:26,380 years in advance, not from the people, what 1090 00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:29,230 they do is throw it out, a kind of 1091 00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:31,090 request for application of the proposal, 1092 00:52:35,850 --> 00:52:33,850 not a research proposal, at the 1093 00:52:38,820 --> 00:52:35,860 beginning, what the piales call the 1094 00:52:40,610 --> 00:52:38,830 principal investigators, it 1095 00:52:44,010 --> 00:52:40,620 starts a little like that. not in the formulation 1096 00:52:47,250 --> 00:52:44,020 then normally the mission begins 1097 00:52:49,309 --> 00:52:47,260 like this a series of scientists meet and what 1098 00:52:51,589 --> 00:52:49,319 they do is that well 1099 00:52:54,019 --> 00:52:51,599 made in a proposal for NASA 1100 00:52:56,599 --> 00:52:54,029 or to see if this mission for example in 1101 00:52:59,059 --> 00:52:56,609 the case of one was thought good we want 1102 00:53:01,009 --> 00:52:59,069 a satellite that Go to Jupiter with a 1103 00:53:02,420 --> 00:53:01,019 certain elliptical polar orbit to 1104 00:53:04,999 --> 00:53:02,430 avoid Jupiter's most powerful radiation 1105 00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:05,009 and to be able to reach a 1106 00:53:09,949 --> 00:53:07,170 much higher resolution than 1107 00:53:11,390 --> 00:53:09,959 other missions and to be able to discover as 1108 00:53:13,519 --> 00:53:11,400 close as possible to Jupiter there is no 1109 00:53:16,279 --> 00:53:13,529 interior structure so for 1110 00:53:19,819 --> 00:53:16,289 example let's say that a mission is like 1111 00:53:21,519 --> 00:53:19,829 moi one is a very long-term mission 1112 00:53:24,019 --> 00:53:21,529 because that starts from the formulation 1113 00:53:25,729 --> 00:53:24,029 people who have been working these years and 1114 00:53:28,130 --> 00:53:25,739 years before the satellite 1115 00:53:29,900 --> 00:53:28,140 can even leave the earth so there are 1116 00:53:32,509 --> 00:53:29,910 years and years of preparation of 1117 00:53:34,069 --> 00:53:32,519 preparation of the proposal and then that 1118 00:53:36,620 --> 00:53:34,079 proposal has to be approved 1119 00:53:38,170 --> 00:53:36,630 once it is tested you start 1120 00:53:40,969 --> 00:53:38,180 the project a bit in different phases 1121 00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:40,979 then once you go to the 1122 00:53:46,339 --> 00:53:44,249 initial phase then you go to the 1123 00:53:48,289 --> 00:53:46,349 development phase and then in that phase 1124 00:53:51,140 --> 00:53:48,299 development is when, for example, 1125 00:53:53,329 --> 00:53:51,150 the design of all the 1126 00:53:54,559 --> 00:53:53,339 satellite instruments 1127 00:53:55,700 --> 00:53:54,569 begins, the design of 1128 00:53:57,620 --> 00:53:55,710 what the satellite is, 1129 00:53:59,810 --> 00:53:57,630 the subsystems of the satellites of the 1130 00:54:03,230 --> 00:53:59,820 telecommunication system, the 1131 00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:03,240 mechanical thermal system, everything that has to be there must be 1132 00:54:07,550 --> 00:54:05,130 a design and development of 1133 00:54:11,750 --> 00:54:07,560 all the systems and instruments and 1134 00:54:14,980 --> 00:54:11,760 so it really is a very 1135 00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:14,990 complex process that takes many years for 1136 00:54:20,359 --> 00:54:17,970 many people a huge team of 1137 00:54:22,339 --> 00:54:20,369 people in general and international as we 1138 00:54:24,859 --> 00:54:22,349 have said before and the truth is that it is 1139 00:54:26,270 --> 00:54:24,869 very complicated because you think that 1140 00:54:28,900 --> 00:54:26,280 you have to do all these instruments 1141 00:54:31,970 --> 00:54:28,910 design the all have to be able to 1142 00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:31,980 integrate later in the satellite and 1143 00:54:36,410 --> 00:54:35,130 be able to survive all kinds of tests 1144 00:54:39,109 --> 00:54:36,420 that we do the satellite because what 1145 00:54:41,630 --> 00:54:39,119 we do is that we simulate the conditions 1146 00:54:43,370 --> 00:54:41,640 of jupiter we know the radiation 1147 00:54:45,290 --> 00:54:43,380 that is going to see in jupiter we know more or 1148 00:54:46,970 --> 00:54:45,300 less socially the magnetic field is due to the 1149 00:54:49,010 --> 00:54:46,980 environmental conditions of jupiter 1150 00:54:50,720 --> 00:54:49,020 so we have had to design all 1151 00:54:53,150 --> 00:54:50,730 the instruments so that it can 1152 00:54:55,310 --> 00:54:53,160 survive a whole year orbiting 1153 00:54:57,230 --> 00:54:55,320 jupiter and that they cannot or are damaged by 1154 00:54:58,310 --> 00:54:57,240 radiation because otherwise they would die and 1155 00:54:59,960 --> 00:54:58,320 then not anymore you have no 1156 00:55:02,450 --> 00:54:59,970 scientific data so one of my 1157 00:55:04,849 --> 00:55:02,460 main objectives working on you has not been to 1158 00:55:07,099 --> 00:55:04,859 design these instruments so that they give 1159 00:55:10,490 --> 00:55:07,109 the maximum possible science so that 1160 00:55:12,980 --> 00:55:10,500 scientists and let's say the human race 1161 00:55:15,290 --> 00:55:12,990 in general do not get the most possible 1162 00:55:17,630 --> 00:55:15,300 from this mission to be able to learn more 1163 00:55:21,170 --> 00:55:17,640 of how the earth and life were formed, 1164 00:55:23,630 --> 00:55:21,180 so I have seen from my experience 1165 00:55:26,180 --> 00:55:23,640 with one that it is a very complex process that 1166 00:55:28,099 --> 00:55:26,190 requires very good organization, 1167 00:55:29,540 --> 00:55:28,109 excellent communication between all the 1168 00:55:32,359 --> 00:55:29,550 people who work because a 1169 00:55:36,020 --> 00:55:32,369 communication failure can mean the 1170 00:55:38,140 --> 00:55:36,030 destruction of the satellite, that is that it is 1171 00:55:41,720 --> 00:55:38,150 very important to have coordination 1172 00:55:44,210 --> 00:55:41,730 among all of them and then to be able to design these 1173 00:55:46,760 --> 00:55:44,220 instruments exactly with the 1174 00:55:49,450 --> 00:55:46,770 adequate requirements that all 1175 00:55:52,220 --> 00:55:49,460 three survive on earth, whether they are in the 1176 00:55:53,900 --> 00:55:52,230 center that designed the instrument, then it 1177 00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:53,910 is in the 1178 00:55:59,089 --> 00:55:55,890 integration center that has made the satellite that 1179 00:56:01,490 --> 00:55:59,099 was in colorado and then in a cruise to 1180 00:56:04,430 --> 00:56:01,500 jupiter that is, it really is a 1181 00:56:06,230 --> 00:56:04,440 very complex thing that until you work 1182 00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:06,240 on it you don't realize all the 1183 00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:07,650 complexity that is 1184 00:56:13,430 --> 00:56:11,010 is that it is needed so really that 1185 00:56:18,140 --> 00:56:13,440 anyone is The missions go well, it's 1186 00:56:20,690 --> 00:56:18,150 an incredible success, so I hope that 1187 00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:20,700 too, the fact that she is so so much so 1188 00:56:23,930 --> 00:56:22,290 complex is what I think makes 1189 00:56:25,490 --> 00:56:23,940 Erika and we excited because 1190 00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:25,500 otherwise it would be very boring, we always have 1191 00:56:29,420 --> 00:56:27,930 something different to do, some 1192 00:56:31,480 --> 00:56:29,430 new problem to solve. and so it 1193 00:56:34,970 --> 00:56:31,490 makes you a much more interesting job 1194 00:56:37,580 --> 00:56:34,980 very well and it's happening very fast now 1195 00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:37,590 so I would like to ask you if you have 1196 00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:39,930 a brief message with which to leave 1197 00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:42,050 the audience 1198 00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:45,770 without my message to the young women who 1199 00:56:51,490 --> 00:56:49,130 have connected is to continue and 1200 00:56:53,980 --> 00:56:51,500 study what you are passionate about that 1201 00:56:56,800 --> 00:56:53,990 is always the most important thing to do something you are 1202 00:56:58,570 --> 00:56:56,810 passionate about and look for opportunities 1203 00:57:00,460 --> 00:56:58,580 today with technology with the 1204 00:57:03,610 --> 00:57:00,470 internet you cannot go online and 1205 00:57:06,820 --> 00:57:03,620 look for opportunities study and 1206 00:57:10,020 --> 00:57:06,830 gain work experience both 1207 00:57:15,010 --> 00:57:10,030 as a volunteer or as a pay them and 1208 00:57:17,020 --> 00:57:15,020 finally do not give up knock on doors and 1209 00:57:19,090 --> 00:57:17,030 if they close one door they knock on another 1210 00:57:22,180 --> 00:57:19,100 and knock on another and look for 1211 00:57:24,430 --> 00:57:22,190 opportunities until they get them and 1212 00:57:27,550 --> 00:57:24,440 also a message for parents is 1213 00:57:30,720 --> 00:57:27,560 essential or extremely important 1214 00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:30,730 I think that the support of parents 1215 00:57:37,530 --> 00:57:34,570 so that their children move forward and that they 1216 00:57:40,980 --> 00:57:37,540 motivate them in the areas that they 1217 00:57:43,710 --> 00:57:40,990 like so that was my experience and 1218 00:57:46,470 --> 00:57:43,720 thanks to the support of my mother and my father 1219 00:57:48,570 --> 00:57:46,480 I am here today, the same advice was 1220 00:57:52,710 --> 00:57:48,580 passed on to all the parents 1221 00:57:54,900 --> 00:57:52,720 who you are listening today if I well yes 1222 00:57:58,020 --> 00:57:54,910 adding to what eric has said I 1223 00:58:00,090 --> 00:57:58,030 will tell you the same thing that all these 1224 00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:00,100 girls with whom we are talking are 1225 00:58:05,670 --> 00:58:02,530 at a very decisive
