[Theory-seminars] Astronaut Ellen Ochoa, Dec 1st, 3:00 PM EST

[Raul Briceno]

Dear all,

Tomorrow ODU/REYES will be hosting Dr. Ellen Ochoa. As you can see below, she was the Director of NASA's Johnson Space Center, the first Latina to go to space, among many other roles.

I am sure this is bound to be an interesting conversation, and might of interest to some of you.

Cheers,
Raul
