      Hi Ethan! There’s so many things I enjoy about my job and being in the space sector!
      Firstly, we get to work with people from many places and ways of life, so it’s a wonderful way to grow!
      Then there’s also the challenge!! It’s such a fast paced sector that there’s always something new to learn! Space research and exploration leaves so much to learn! It can be tough, of course, but how boring would life be if we weren’t challenged once in a while!?

      I often find that those who enjoy learning about space also have a creative side to them somewhere – it takes a broad mind and a lot of imagination to take in the vastness of it all sometimes 🙂

      Hello again! I think my favourite thing about my job is that I’m constantly surprised and learning new things about different planets. I love that I can have discussions and work with other people to try to understand some of these diverse planets 🙂

      Hi Ethan! For me, the favourite thing about my job is being able to work collaboratively with my colleagues, as it gives lots of opportunities for discussing and learning new things! Being able to work with people from different backgrounds and experiences means you get to see things from new perspectives, which can be really useful to make progress on projects and to understand concepts in ways I hadn’t necessarily considered.
