#DidYouKnow Winston Elliot Scott wrote a book about his experience as an astronaut?
Scott was born on August 6, 1950, in Miami, Florida. Though schools desegregated after the Brown v. Board case in 1954, as Scott entered school, they were still segregated in Miami. In 1965, as Scott entered the tenth grade, he was transferred to Coral Gables Senior High School, his first integrated education. In 1968, he graduated and attended Florida State University.
In 1972, #WinstonScott graduated with a degree in music and entered Navy Officer Candidate School in Newport, Rhode Island. In August 1974, he graduated and served at the Naval Air Station in North Island, California. In 1978, Scott attended the Naval Postgraduate School at Monterey, California and earned a master’s degree in Aeronautical Engineering two years later. In 1992, Scott applied to be an astronaut as he accumulated over 5,000 hours of flight time in twenty different military and civilian aircrafts.
In August 1992, #WinstonElliotScott was selected by NASA as an astronaut and reported to Johnson ****** e Center in Houston, Texas. On January 11, 1996, he served as a mission specialist and conducted two ****** e walks. During these ****** e walks he tested tools, techniques, and procedures were later utilized to build the International ****** e Station.
In 1999, Scott retired from both NASA and the Navy, where he attained the rank of Captain. He became the Vice President for Student Affairs and Associate Dean of Florida State University, College of Engineering. In 2006, Scott published “Reflections From Earth Orbit,” a semiautobiographical book that describes his experiences as a NASA astronaut. He shares his journey to go beyond the bonds of earth into outer ****** e to inspire others.

#DidYouKnow On December 18, 2006, Robert Lee Curbeam Jr. set a new single mission American ***** ewalk record when he completed four ***** e walks.
Curbeam was born on March 5, 1962, in Baltimore, Maryland. In 1980, he graduated from Woodlawn High School and received a nomination to the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. In 1884, Curbeam graduated and later completed Naval Flight Officer training. He was assigned to the USS Forrestal where he served in the Mediterranean and Caribbean Seas, and the Artic and Indian Oceans.
In 1990, Curbeam graduated from the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California, with a master’s degree in aeronautical engineering. In 1991, he completed Test Pilot School and reported to the Strike Aircraft Test Directorate in Patuxent River, Maryland. In August 1994, he returned to the Naval Academy as a Captain and instructor in the Weapons and Systems Engineering Department.
In December 1994, Curbeam was selected as a NASA astronaut candidate. After a year of training and evaluation, he was selected as an astronaut for future ***** e flight missions. On August 7, 1997, Curbeam participated in his first ***** eflight mission to test equipment for use on the future International ***** e Station. On December 9, he departed for his third ***** eflight mission, where he’d complete a record setting four ***** ewalks. A ***** ewalk, or extravehicular activity, is work done by an astronaut outside of the ***** ecraft. During these ***** ewalks, Curbeam helped install new electrical systems on the International ***** e Station.
In 2007, after thirteen years at NASA, #RobertCurbeam retired. He continues to speak at school and community events to inspire future astronauts to one day land on Mars.

🔴🔘🔵 En 2022, La camerounaise Christelle Tchonang de la NASA a reçu la prestigieuse médaille Kostas Nitis
Détentrice d'un doctorat en océanographie, la NASA l'avait recruté, il y'a quelques mois, pour étudier l'expansion de l'eau sur le sol de la terre... ( Un sujet important dans la lutte contre le réchauffement climatique )
Récemment ses travaux ont payé car le système mondial d'observation de l'océan lui a décerné la prestigieuse médaille Kostas Nittis pour ses travaux de thèse doctorale effectués à l' agence spatiale européene à Toulouse et ses recherches postdoctorales effectués à la NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory à Pasadena, ville du comté de Los Angeles en Californie, USA
La médaille Kostas Nittis est décernée chaque année depuis 2015 par l' EuroGOOS (European Global Ocean Observing System), la branche européene du système mondial d'observation de l'océan à des scientifiques marins en début de carrière pour leurs contributions exceptionnelles à l'océanographie opérationnelle et aux domaines plus larges de l'observation des océans.
Cette distinction est accompagnée d' une subvention de 3000€ destinée à financer la participation de la (du) récipiendaire aux conférences et événements internationaux, ainsi qu'à la création de ses réseaux professionnels.
La chercheuse est également très engagée dans la promotion de la science en Afrique, formé à Yaoundé puis à Cotonou...
