Science
Eva Pettinato, a guidance, navigation, and controls aerospace engineer, joins STEMoirs. She tells us about her path becoming a rocket scientist and engineer—which started with her belief that engineers only drive trains, but led to her double checking components of a 90+ foot long rocket she helped build while lying on a launch pad at Kennedy Space Center. We also hear about her love of 70's & 80's metal, her secret to winning 15+ concert tickets, perspectives on science outreach and women in STEM, and how playing poker has influenced her life.Follow her on @firstcoffeethenrockets!Music credits:RetroFuture Clean and Furious Freak by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
