      I would stick with what I am currently doing 🙂 I think being an astronaut is really cool too, but requires a completely different set of skills than what I actually have!

    I would just love to see out planet from space! Everyone who has gone into space comes back deeply affected by seeing the Earth as a planet. They typically come back with a profound appreciation of the planet and the fact that the life it harbours is protected by an incredibly thin layer of atmosphere beyond which is the harsh, cold, dark, silence of space.

    I’m happier with what I’m doing. I suppose that being an astronaut was a dream for many of us. However a friend of mine works in the field and tells me that it’s not that. Every minute details of everything they do is discussed at great lengths by entire teams on Earth. They have no leeway. They have to follow very very strict procedures.
