Guest Lecturer for ASU's Osher Lifelong Learning Institute and will be presenting a 4-part science experience seminar series:Reaching for the Stars: My NASA Astronaut ExperienceMany kids dream about becoming an astronaut but few individuals come close to making it a reality. In 2008 I applied for the NASA astronaut program and this is my story about how I ended up among the top 1% of applicants.Mars on Earth: How I Survived a NASA Funded Mars SimulationHumans are actively planning a mission to Mars. What will it take for us to survive and thrive on the red planet? This session will focus on what I learned from participating in a four-month Mars simulation.Searching for ET: My Genius by Stephen Hawking ExperienceAre we alone? That questions has been asked since humans first looked up at the night sky. Professor Stephen Hawking challenged me along with two other individuals to stretch or knowledge and imagination, to think like a genius, and search for life beyond our planet. This session will focus on what I learned, as a teacher and scientist, from participating in the reality TV science documentary.Observatories at the Extreme: My Southern Sky and Telescopes ExperienceDid you know that Chile has some of the largest observatories in the world? I didn't, until I went on an incredible journey to South America and visited these amazing technological wonders. This session will focus on what I learned from traveling with top astronomers from across the country as we took on the extreme regions of the Atacama desert in search of clear skies.

The Astronomy in Chile Educator Ambassadors Program (ACEAP) is a collaboration between AUI, the National Radio Astronomy Observatory, National Optical Astronomy Observatory, and Gemini Observatory, and is supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF 1439408). The Program brings amateur astronomers, planetarium personnel, and K-16 formal and informal astronomy educators to US astronomy facilities in Chile. While at these facilities, ACEAP Ambassadors will receive extensive training about the instruments, the science, data products, and communicating science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) concepts. When they return home, the Ambassadors will share their experiences and observatory resources with schools and community groups across the US.
