I have successfully completed my internship at Coastal Construction. The experience was truly enriching; not only was I surrounded by remarkable individuals, but I was also deeply inspired by the company's work culture. My key takeaway from the internship is the allure of construction planning and scheduling. It captivated me so much that if I were to delve deeper into the construction field over the next couple of years, this is the exact department I'd wish to be a part of. The most important lesson I learned is that the construction industry is slow to adapt and most are afraid of change. To succeed, regardless of removing positions, departments or employees... there has to be adaptions to better ways and new technologies. If not, the competition will do it better. Coastal Construction is a champion of change. Here's a glimpse of my rigorous summer schedule: Weekdays 5 am - 2 am weekends 5 am - 11 pm (only studying, writing and taking extra courses on Coursera, EDx, Udemy & going to the gym). Weekdays: - 5:00 am: Wake up - 5:30 am: Depart for the internship - 6:00 - 6:45 am: Arrive either at the corporate office or the job site - 7:00 pm (or 3:30 pm on select days): Wrap up work. On some days, I'd leave early due to finals or presentations. - 8:00 pm or 5:00 pm: Reach home, factoring in the unpredictable Miami traffic. On days when the commute took longer, I'd productively spend the time listening to university lectures. - Post-arrival: Whenever possible, I'd immerse myself in the latest white papers or indulge in textbook reading—a personal hobby. - Until 10:00 pm: Dedicate time to my first master's degree from WGU. - Thursdays: Reserved for NASA L'Space lectures. - Until 1:00 am: Work on proposals. - Until 2:00 - 2:30 am: Wind down, prep for the upcoming day, and get some rest. Despite the intensity, this summer has been deeply fulfilling. I'm eagerly looking forward to completing both my first master's degree and the L'Space Academy soon. #NASA #LSPACE #COASTALCONSTRUCTION #WGU #westerngovernorsuniversity #graduatestudent #internship #oneteam #browardcollege #construction

I am so proud to announce that I have become the 𝗙𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗔𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗔𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗴 𝗔𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘂𝘁 in the world 🇦🇲 👩🚀 Currently, I am in Poland 🇵🇱, participating in the #EXP85 - LOTOS lunar analog mission 🌙 at the Analog Astronaut Training Center (AATC) with my experiment 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗔𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗴 𝗠𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: 𝗘𝗻𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗘𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆, 𝗦𝗮𝗳𝗲𝘁𝘆, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗢𝘂𝘁𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘀. This is my 3rd day here without sunlight and connection to the outside world 🌑 By taking a 2-minute break I wanted to announce that for the next 5 days, I will remain unavailable. I will share my experience and insights from the mission once we've left the habitat!!!

On this anniversary of Apollo 11, we reflect on a time when our nation united in pursuit of the stars, achieving one of humanity's most remarkable triumphs. We dared to dream, to explore, & to reach beyond the confines of our earthly bounds. Today, however, the funds once destined for discovery & the betterment of all are mainly being diverted to the machinery of war, political machinations, & the enrichment of shareholders. Let us remember the spirit of Apollo & strive once more to channel our collective efforts toward noble + unifying endeavors. Today should be a national federal holiday.

Asteroidology Naive Draft 1 The creation of a new field, Asteroidology. This new field aims to enhance scientific understanding, develop robust defense mechanisms, & advance exploration technologies. Sub divisions Crater Studies: Investigate the morphology, formation mechanics, erosion, & degradation of asteroid craters. This includes understanding the shapes, sizes, & structures of craters (morphology), the physical & chemical processes during crater formation (formation mechanics), natural erosion processes affecting craters over time (erosion & degradation), & the immediate & long-term effects of asteroid impacts on various surfaces (impact effects). Histography of Asteroid (NEO) & defense Studies: Document & analyze the historical progression of asteroid research & defense (Dart example). This involves reviewing the number & scope of studies conducted in each decade from 1960 to the present, assessing how advancements in technology have influenced asteroid research, & identifying & analyzing emerging trends & patterns in asteroidology. Defense Mechanisms: Develop effective strategies & technologies to mitigate the threat of asteroid impacts. Key areas include: - DART (Double Asteroid Redirection Test): Research & test methods for redirecting potentially hazardous asteroids. - NEO (Near-Earth Object) Surveillance: Enhance detection & monitoring systems for near-Earth objects. - Impact Mitigation: Develop strategies to minimize the damage from potential asteroid impacts. - Public Policy: Formulate policies & protocols for global cooperation in asteroid defense. Exploration Technologies: Advance the technologies & methodologies used in asteroid exploration: - Robotics: Designs for surface exploration of asteroids. - Landers: Develop landers capable of stable & precise landings on asteroid surfaces. - Probes: Gather data & samples from asteroids. - Satellites: Launch & operate satellites for long-term asteroid observation. - Spacesuits: Designs to ensure astronaut safety & efficiency during asteroid exploration missions. Methodology A multidisciplinary approach, leveraging expertise from geology, astronomy, engineering, & public policy. Collaboration with international space agencies, academic institutions, & private sector partners will be crucial. Key activities include: - Research and Development: Conduct cutting-edge research & develop new technologies. - Field Missions: Plan & execute missions to study asteroids up close. - Data Analysis: Utilize advanced data analytics to interpret findings. - Policy Development: Work with policymakers to create effective defense & exploration strategies. Expected Outcomes - Enhanced Understanding. - Improved Defense. - Innovative Technologies. - Global Collaboration. #Asteroidology #Innovation #Exploration #Space #Asteroids #Safety NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration Space Generation Advisory Council
