How did you choose your Flight Director name?
What do you do when things don't go according to plan?
out of all the roles you've had in the past, which one do you feel has best prepared you to be a flight director?
An Astronaut’s Tips For Living in Confined Spaces
One thing astronauts have to be good at: living in confined spaces for long periods of time.
Nearly 20 years successfully living on the International Space Station and more than 50 flying in space did not happen by accident. Our astronauts and psychologists have examined what human behaviors create a healthy culture for living and working remotely in small groups. They narrowed it to five general skills and defined the associated behaviors for each skill.
For many of us in a similar scenario, here are the skills as shared by astronaut Anne McClain:
Skill 1, Communication
Share information and feelings freely.
Talk about your intentions before taking action.
Discuss when your or others’ actions were not as expected.
Take time to debrief after success or conflict.
Admit when you are wrong.
Skill 2, Self-Care
Balance work, rest, and personal time. Be organized.
Realistically assess your own strengths and weaknesses, and their influence on the group.
Identify personal tendencies and their influence on your success or failure. Learn from mistakes.
Be open about your weaknesses and feelings.
Take action to mitigate your own stress or negativity (don't pass it on to the group).
Skill 3, Team Care
Demonstrate patience and respect. Encourage others.
Monitor your team (or friends and family) for signs of stress or fatigue.
Encourage participation in team (or virtual) activities.
Volunteer for the unpleasant tasks. Offer and accept help.
Share credit; take the blame.
Skill 4, Group Living
Cooperate rather than compete.
Actively cultivate group culture (use each individual's culture to build the whole).
Respect roles, responsibilities and workload.
Take accountability; give praise freely. Then work to ensure a positive team attitude.
Keep calm in conflict.
Skill 5, Leadership/Followership
Accept responsibility.
Adjust your style to your environment.
Assign tasks and set goals.
Lead by example. Give direction, information, feedback, coaching and encouragement.
Talk when something isn’t right. Ask questions.
We are all in this together on this spaceship we call Earth! These five skills are just reminders to help cultivate good mental and physical health while we all adjust to being indoors. Take care of yourself and dive deeper into these skills HERE.

Celebrating Spitzer, One of NASA’s Great Observatories
As the Spitzer Space Telescope’s 16-year mission ends, we’re celebrating the legacy of our infrared explorer. It was one of four Great Observatories – powerful telescopes also including Hubble, Chandra and Compton – designed to observe the cosmos in different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Light our eyes can see
The part of the spectrum we can see is called, predictably, visible light. But that’s just a small segment of all the wavelengths of the spectrum. The Hubble Space Telescope observes primarily in the visible spectrum. Our Chandra X-ray Observatory is designed to detect (you guessed it) X-ray emissions from very hot regions of the universe, like exploded stars and matter around black holes. Our Compton Gamma Ray Observatory, retired in 2000, produced the first all-sky survey in gamma rays, the most energetic and penetrating form of light.
Then there’s infrared…
Infrared radiation, or infrared light, is another type of energy that we can't see but can feel as heat. All objects in the universe emit some level of infrared radiation, whether they're hot or cold. Spitzer used its infrared instrument to make discoveries in our solar system (including Saturn's largest ring) all the way to the edge of the universe. From stars being born to planets beyond our solar system (like the seven Earth-size exoplanets around the star TRAPPIST-1), Spitzer's science discoveries will continue to inspire the world for years to come.
Multiple wavelengths
Together, the work of the Great Observatories gave us a more complete view and understanding of our universe.
Hubble and Chandra will continue exploring our universe, and next year they’ll be joined by an even more powerful observatory … the James Webb Space Telescope!
Many of Spitzer's breakthroughs will be studied more precisely with the Webb Space Telescope. Like Spitzer, Webb is specialized for infrared light. But with its giant gold-coated beryllium mirror and nine new technologies, Webb is about 1,000 times more powerful. The forthcoming telescope will be able to push Spitzer's science findings to new frontiers, from identifying chemicals in exoplanet atmospheres to locating some of the first galaxies to form after the Big Bang.
We can’t wait for another explorer to join our space telescope superteam!

What is some advice that really helped you get to where you are now?
Announced today, March 9th 2022, intrepid expedition team Endurance22 in the Weddell Sea, carrying The Explorers Club flag, uncovered the resting place of Ernest Shackleton's ship Endurance. Find out why this discovery's’ timing has such a poetic twist!
Being with someone who prioritises their own self care and sees their emotional and physical health as a priority above all else is the type of ease every woman needs in order to be able to balance out her service to you whilst being able to achieve her own goals and desired manifestations.
Team work makes the dream work. ✨
How to win and be successful? It is about you identifying your actual talent and giving your ultimate dedication, passion, patience and hard work into it. Be humble towards the people you are working with so that it’s easy to collaborate and communicate with them. A good teamwork also ensures a pathway to being successful and win, eventually.

I’ve made some emotional face studies again. Reasons 1 because i need it for my team work and reasons 2 because I really like it haha. :3
This is it for the color face ruff.
I actually don’t know if i’m gonna make him a little bit tanned or not.
Btw i apologize for the ruff style of it. This is not the clean up one :3 (Only the one on the left is really “clean”)
You and she work well together, no surprise since you’re meant for each other–and I don’t just mean in the romantic way you keep botching up. You’re a team, a good one. You watch out for each other, and that’s good. But that doesn’t mean you’re meant to do every single little thing together. Yes, you have a shared destiny, but you have an individual one, and so does she.
