This week on Career Girls, we've featured Mars Curiosity Rover engineers Mallory Lefland and Jaime Catchen from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. As a twist on this topic, our blog post this week features a video from Ellen Ochoa on the importance of curiosity. Ellen was the world's first Latina astronaut, and is currently the director of the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas.
