  • Summary

  • Whether it’s an unexpected repair during a space walk (think Apollo 13-type problem solving!) or an evacuation order in the Army, Major Kate Rubins keeps cool and collaborative. Maybe it’s being a “fish out of water” that prepared her: the NASA astronaut, microbiologist, and US Army reservist is continually putting herself in new and challenging situations across a wide variety of domains. In this episode, you’ll hear:
    • what prompted her surprise pivot from MIT researcher to astronaut – and how each of us could learn from that experience
    • how cross-discipline collaboration helped her become the first person to sequence DNA in space
    • who she names as her personal heroes
    • what techniques NASA uses to prepare people for the kinds of teamwork required in the tight confines of the International Space Station
