Jessica Meir launched into space in September 2019, and, according to UC San Diego officials, is “poised to be one of the first women on the moon.”
NASA Astronaut With Ties to San Diego Launches Into Space
Before receiving her doctorate in marine biology at UC San Diego, Meir studied biology at Brown University and attended the International Space University in France. She worked for three years at NASA's Johnson Space Center to research how humans' physiology changes in space. When Meir was 5 years old, she was asked to draw a picture of what she wanted to be when she grew up. The drawing, she recalls, was a photo of an astronaut on the moon with an American Flag behind her. Now, she is that astronaut.
American astronauts Jessica Meir and Christina Koch made history Friday with NASA’s first all-female spacewalk. The astronauts walked outside the International Space Station to replace a faulty battery.
