Zitat des Tages von Kalpana Chawla:
Some of the senior people, the very senior astronauts, shook my hand and said, 'K.C., you did a great job. Don't let anyone tell you different.'
I was interested in aerospace and flying, and the U.S. is really the best place in the world for flying.
Listen to the sounds of nature. Wishing you the best on your trek towards your dreams.
When you look at the stars and the galaxy, you feel that you are not just from any particular piece of land, but from the solar system.
I stopped thinking about it after trying to figure out what are the lessons learned, and there are so many. After I had basically sorted that out, I figured it's time to really look at the future and not at the past.
I don't know why I always liked aerospace engineering. I was in the 10th grade when I figured that's what I wanted to do.
The quickest way may not necessarily be the best.
I am from Karnal, India.
It's easy for me to be motivated and inspired by seeing somebody who just goes all out to do something.
Material interests are not the only guiding light.
Every once in a while, we'd ask my dad if we could get a ride in one of these planes. And, he did take us to the flying club and get us a ride in the Pushpak and a glider that the flying club had.
If you want to do something, what does it matter where you are ranked?
It's like running a marathon race. We train all hours of the day. When you are taking a bath, you are thinking of the flight.
