NASA | Meet a Hubble Engineer: Jackie Townsend

[bigtopbollocks]

What an amazing and dynamic lady Jackie! love it, take the hard road and a the road less travelled and give it everything!

[SkateboardingMH]

her daughter goes to my school in silver spring way to go Mrs.Dazo

[spcwlkr01]

Way to go, Jackie!

It has been my pleasure to work with Ms. Townsend. She is a true professional - stay tuned, I expect her to leave her mark on this agency and industry as an engineer, manager, and pioneer.

[cooltrollface]

cute

[bananaz4all]

inspiring

[fa7od]

nice

[kakashi282]

What about the gun engineer to build the sentry to keep RED away from your equipment?

But seriously, good for her to kicking it up a notch and achieving something like that.

[namytrebil]

But there are so many young scientists in developing countries who unfortunately can't afford either go to NASA or find an appropriate job in the place where they are living! I think that space exploration should be developed and a brand new organization or union should be established (like NATO) which would motivate acceding countries to invest fixed rates from their GDP in space exploration and development!

[se7vn]

I live in the same country as NASA and don't have the cash to get into school because we hardly have the money ourselves. I live in Modesto, CA, USA. It's a very inspiring video, but when it comes down to it, it's cold hard cash that seperates you from your dream. Everyone says "Student Loans! Scholarships!" , but when you have 1,000,000 students applying for those scholarships that are thinking at Genius level, the chance of you getting picked is VERY slim.

[ohmygoshiloveapples]

That is cool.

If you love apples... scream Aye!

[divh4rt]

Aye!

[bubblinbrownsugar616]

That is crazy amazing! :)

[asfesesease]

Best video on youtube, hands down. Epiphany, determination, breaking down problems, engineering and science... what else is there?

[GUAlliance]

Wow, I felt her emotion. Did you see she was all teary eyed at the end? Its amazing when can find a job to be so passionate about. It changes our lives

[TheBonBon92]

:)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))­))))))

[DEATHxValor]

big deal...I build shit like that in my backyard...high

[pocklord]

Great video. An inspiration!

[youvebeenthunderstru]

Wow, some of the comments here... stfu and stop being so disrespectful.

[manzha]

use essa lata velha para fazer panela para os pobres e construa um novo telescopio maior e melhor

[downwiz2]

what an intelligent young lady.

[musicdivinemusic]

Great example of perseverance. "Do what matters to you" is the lesson.

[Netuser1]

Ωραίο βίντεο. Αντε να κάνει και η ΑΕΚ καμία μεταγραφή.

excellent .....nice video...............

[MUMINLOVER1]

what is he talking about ?

[goldragon988]

All the most developed countries are infected with corporations, which concentrate within them as much of a country's money as the can. And corporations lobby the government, they fund presidential campaigns and then they demand return favors. It is a plague of the world that will never allow countries to co-operate.

[uranne]

wow

[edmundosmontechristo]

good video

[oscaralo09]

[markobas83]

xaxax

[dchalf10]

actually you can, any country in europe, or japan, or australia, or many many other countries

[goodluckpeace44]

problem with women is that they get attracted to men and loves to have lots of babies and a little supine too. But they have the same intelligence as men.

[goodluckpeace44]

She is a good woman

[goodluckpeace44]

I thought American people are too thin, because they go on diets and do Yoga.

they aint stupid at all, its that there are a lot of sttupid people, but America keeps its smart people and takes more smart people, one American President had a proof of his own for Pythogerous theory

[9K58]

lol, now I understand why NASA is bound to rely 100% on Russia for a ride to ISS for next decade.

she is running her mouth off about humanity's future, blah blah blah, and russian engineers meanwhile make the real shit, to fly into space for example.

Pathetic

[goodluckpeace44]

She is just a student, There are big Geniouses in America too.

[9K58]

oh yeah, I am sure, there are "geniouses", too bad there are no geniuses.

IF there were geniuses, why then tey can not make their own rockets.

Even the new hope, Atlas 5 booster, uses russian first stage.

[goodluckpeace44]

haha ha did you see Mathematics Olympiad results? USA and Russia are one of the top, but the top are like CHina and Bulgarea, do Bulgareans make rockets? But they are smart. America is full of other people, most people dont even want to go to school or just go on skate boards. But America has its traditional geniouses. I am not an American, but I like America and Russia. They must work together.

[9K58]

actually, I am in match, and I personally very well know Konstantin MAtveev, we study together in U of T. Do you know who that is? Hint: Math Olympiad 2007, Vietnam, Hanoy, first place. He represented Russia btw.

And I have question for you:

Do mathematicians build rockets? NOPE. My friend Konstantin actually doesn't like Physics taht much,

And you idn't get the hint about your improper spelling did you?

America will not work together with anyone, it only cares about itself.

[goodluckpeace44]

well its not America if not for America Einstien would be dead, I know your friend must be realy realy smart, if this world gets hit by a astroid Russian people should put its geniouses in a rocket along with the other ones and send them outer space. I have respect for your friend than I have for any plannet in the universe.

[timetraveler2006]

And you idn't get the hint about your improper spelling did you?

" idn't " doesn't like a word to me either fellow!

Put your foot where your mouth is will you? You put us Canadians to shame.

[goodluckpeace44]

Oh realy? just because I don't care about youtube superwisers I don't care about spellings. When I travel in the bus I can hear what literatare of other people "DUDE DUDE YO YO"

Why don'yt you compete me in a writting competition? a real educated man won't bother about it because it is clear it was a mistake.

[quelorepario]

All the scientific world, no matter what country it is, should work together.

[goodluckpeace44]

yeah thats right and they should fight against 16th century rasist minded 21st century people

[Downfacingdog]

Everybody grow up!!!!!!

[almfacebooker]

¬¬ ... ¬¬ ... ¬¬

[einbischen]

WOw all that from watching a crappy movie. I watch shit hollywood movies all the time and never wanted to do anything afterwards, except maybe kill myself or go to Mcdonald's.

[itchyfingers89]

Im going to take Electrical Engineering this fall.

[Cozzi0]

who cares if she is fat she is a clever woman and plays a huge role in the human race, without people like her the human race would still be in the 15th century.

[Cozzi0]

well said

[Airgraph1]

fat fat fat fat fat

[2spittingcobras]

ignorant, ignorant, ignorant, ignorant, ignorant.

[daedeloth2]

[BeauteReine]

Thanks for inspiring women and girls all over the world Ms. Townsend.

Clearly, from the comments I see here, a lot of these people need to have THEIR OWN epiphanies in life 'cause based on their judgmental, sexist comments, their brains seem to be devolving into those of Cro Magnons.

[9thprotocol]

that chick only settled for a ground job coz she's too fat to go into space

[BenjaminAmsterdamSt]

lol

[TheErnestas212]

lol niceeeee

[johnnytastetest]

This woman is clearly an actress.

A female engineer? Ha ha. Yeah right.

[Sorgutentarer]

haha, yes, obviously it is a funny thing in Kazakhstan where you live.

Dog> Woman right??

[LTUcronus]

LOL why not? If women become pilots, or even a fire-fighters, so why can`t they be engineers? lol and she doesn`t look like actress. Anyways, check up who are Jackie Townsend in google or i dunno where in order to persuade... She is famous NASA engineer lol.

[Cozzi0]

I think women are entitled to becoming pilots and engineers and many jobs but a fire fighter is a mans job what anyone says. Don't go off at me here but physically most men are stronger than women and this is true it is the way we are built. A males anatomy is built up of much more muscle than women. But i believe men and women both have the same interlectual capabilities.

[LTUcronus]

Lol dude, are u stupid? :D ofc men are stronger than women there is no speech about that. But telling that women can`t be engineers is even more stupid thing. Especially when engineer`s job doesn`t requires huge physical skills.

Well talking about intellectual capabilities, nothing strange, that the most famous world`s scientists are and was men... I don`t say, that women are stupid, but men just have a bigger logical development.

[knytebyte]

good work Jackie you helped us see our universe....awsome

[enriqueDFTL]

I wanna work for NASA. :(
