Interview Post
The interview with Ms. Pauley was very educational. She first talked about her previous jobs, like in Oregon where she met Ms. Leppla. Then she talked about her chem engineering job in Wyoming. But, then she got to the important part; SpaceX. She said there were around 9 launches a year, and how she manages the rockets. What was really important, though, was how she admits failure. She doesn't spread blame or try to save face. She said how admitting the problem leads to solving it quickly. I really admired how passionate she was about sending people back to space--she was very determined. I also liked her evidence of what space exploration has gotten us: MRIs, calculators, and Velcro. SpaceX now builds Falcon 9 Rockets. I thoroughly enjoyed this interview, and hope to have more in this class.
