"If I can be welcomed in this group, doing this work, maybe they can too." an interview with David Crisp

Description

David Crisp, senior research scientist at NASA, recounted his adventures, from going from a physics education major who had a paper on Venus winds published by Carl Sagan to a doctoral student at Princeton to helping fix Hubble. He described working for years on the Orbiting Carbon Observatory, only to see it plunge into the Indian Ocean after a rocket failure, and the elation of getting to try again after funding was restored.
