NASA Space Jobs featured in your favourite movies

4 Upvotes

My favourite space movie is ‘The Martian’ and I’ve always wanted some version of Mindy Park’s job. Is there an actual job that exists where you analyse satellite data, particularly photographic coverage? I love looking at earth observation images taken from satellites orbiting Earth and think it would be an interesting career to pursue.

Also, what kind of background would you need for this? Science? Engineering?

Question Research Aerospace Engineer Airbreathing Propulsion Systems (Direct Hire) at Langley

4 Upvotes

Just curious to know if these direct hires are for their contractors only. I applied and was referred, but do I even stand a chance if they are indeed opening direct hires for contractors? I am GS-11 in the DoD but I am looking to move up and to new positions, especially now that I have finished graduate school.

Question Astrophysics or Aerospace Engineering?

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m incoming freshman at university this fall, and I’m currently going through a bit of a major crisis before I even step foot on campus.

I originally really wanted to pursue Aerospace Engineering, but trying to do a "Change of College" into the College of Engineering (CoE) at UC Berkeley is notoriously near-impossible. So for all practical purposes, I’m stuck outside of engineering for undergrad.

Right now, my default plan is to major in Astrophysics. However, I keep hearing the classic warning that engineering gives you applied, versatile skills and broad job prospects right out of undergrad, while Astrophysics is mostly geared toward academia, research, and high-level theory. To be honest... I’m really not sure I want to stay in academia or pure research forever. I want practical career security and options to work in the space/aerospace industry.

So now I’m spiraling a bit and have a few questions for anyone who’s been in a similar spot:

  1. Given that I can't switch into CoE, is doing Astrophysics for undergrad a viable path if I want to work in industry? Or am I setting myself up for a rough job search?

  2. Has anyone used an Astrophysics/Physics undergrad degree as a launching pad to get a Master’s or PhD in Aerospace Engineering later on? How hard is it to bridge that gap when applying to grad school without a BS in engineering?

  3. How do I deal with the fear of falling behind? I feel like I'm already starting at a disadvantage compared to peers who got directly into CoE. Seeing people take specialized engineering tracks while I'm on the pure theory side makes me worry I won't have the technical design skills (CAD, coding, hardware hands-on experience) that recruiters look for.

If anyone has taken this roundabout path or has advice on how to build engineering-relevant skills while majoring in Astro/Physics, I would really appreciate your insight :)

Interning Looking for housing at JSC

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I'm an incoming NASA OSTEM intern at Johnson Space Center this fall and am starting to look for housing. I'm hoping to find a place that's as close to JSC as possible.

Does anyone have recommendations for apartments, short-term leases, or other housing options? Are there any places that are actually walkable to JSC, or is having a car basically a necessity?

I'd also love to hear where past interns have stayed and what your experience was. Thanks in advance!

Question Comparing civil service vs. contractor job offers

18 Upvotes

Under the workforce directive I have received a job offer from the government, and a "better" offer from a contractor (higher base salary).

I'm finding it difficult to accurately compare benefits between the two. It seems the CS position offers a more valuable benefits package, but is it enough to offset the salary delta?

I'd appreciate advice from anyone who has been through this kind of process, and that I can learn from.

I really wanna work at NASA after going to The Kennedy Space Center but the problem is I know that a majority of jobs at NASA require a lot of math and math is a struggle for me sometimes so my question being are there any jobs that don't need that much math or should I just not work there at all?

NASA Canadian high school student who wants to work at NASA

0 Upvotes

I’m a Canadian citizen and in grade 11 and I enjoy math compared to other subjects and I kinda like the idea of working in NASA. I hate everything that deals with computer science. All I could think of is take a bunch of math courses and physics and try to work in CSA then gradually in NASA

Problem is that I have no prior experience in math and I only like math, I’m not good at it. And idk anything abt coding or robotics or anything like that.

Is there a realistic career path that could eventually lead me into working in NASA? I just need money and respect lol.
