H2O (Here To Observe) Lucy Mission Launch Livestream
October 16, 2021
I co-hosted a virtual Lucy Launch livestream watch party for students at Howard University, University of Puerto Rico, and Virginia State University. My co-hosts were several NASA employees and one of my fellow Lucy Ambassadors. This watch party was the inaugural event for H2O (Here to Observe), a NASA program that pairs students from minority serving institutions with NASA scientists. Before we watched the launch, I gave a presentation explaining an overview of the mission, and then during launch, I answered questions and gave interesting facts about the mission.
Post-Internship Presentation at Southwest Research Institute

Following the completion of my Outreach Internship with NASA's Lucy Mission at the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), I presented my work to approximately 30 SwRI employees, including the Deputy Principal Investigator of the Lucy Mission. A large portion of the presentation discussed my work writing engineering articles explaining each of the instruments for the mission's official website.

I presented my Lucy Mission Outreach work at a virtual Science Team meeting for NASA's Lucy Mission. Attendance included most members of mission leadership (such as the mission PI and deputy PI), as well as the instrument PIs, and the founders of the NASA L'SPACE Academy. Organizations represented included the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Southwest Research Institute, Arizona State University, and Northern Arizona University.
