The Future Brighter is proud to announce that Dr. Swati Mohan, Perseverance Mars Rover Mission - Guidance, Navigation, & Control Systems Engineer at NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory will provide a special virtual talk for 3rd through 6th graders to give a glimpse into the life lessons that helped her get to where she is today!
This STEM session is open to students all over the world!
On February 18, 2021, the Perseverance rover touched down safely on the surface of Mars. Those final “7 minutes of terror” were preceded by years of hard work from the diverse team that formed the Mars 2020 Entry, Descent, and Landing team. In this session, Dr. Mohan gives a glimpse into the personal life journey of Perseverance landing mission commentator.
Dr. Mohan reflects on the life lessons that have helped her get to where she is today: 1) knowing yourself, 2) creating a support system, and 3) actively doing your best. These three tenets are described using stories from her past to highlight the importance of shaping her path, to JPL and to the Mars 2020 Entry, Descent, and Landing team.
