“Building a road to space so our children can build the future”. That is the mission statement of Blue Origin where Maya has accepted an internship beginning this fall. Based in Seattle, the company is developing reusable sub-orbital and orbital launch vehicles and a flexible lander capable of delivering a wide variety of small, medium and large payloads to the lunar surface. Its capability to provide precise and soft landings will enable a sustained human presence on the Moon. Maya was required to submit a headshot on a white background so my services in the photo studio were requested. Prior to taking the photo, Maya, Jeanine and I watched the US women defeat the Netherlands in the finals of the FIFA World Cup. Not normally known for our interest in watching soccer on TV, the three of us, joined occasionally by one or both of the boys, enjoyed watching the US games together.
