Proud of our own Dr Lieke van der Hulst describing her own journey in STEM and the many paths you can travel with education, research and industry. Celebrating diversity today especially the role of women on International Women’s Day. A very talented @AusSpaceAgency panel
An inspiring video from an inspiring woman on international women’s day. Click post below to see @AussieAstroKat ‘s video
The astronaut dream is a powerful one. 💫
Having a dream is a joy.
Happy International Women’s Day!
Thank you for this beautiful video @AusSpaceAgency and Shalom Almond.
