This past summer, NASA received more than 26,000 applications for summer internship projects, and the vast pool of applicants continues to expand.

NASA internships can add significant value to students’ college experiences by providing a platform for participants to

Black History Month STEM Inspiration – Interstellar Experiences of NASA Interns

Stennis Space Center intern Lichelle Brown has always had her eyes on the sky. Growing up, Brown often visited NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, attended “space camps,” and even joined a robotics club. Through these experiences, her passion for science and exploration grew. However, her biggest inspiration and influence was George Washington Carver.

Williams views this month of remembrance as a time to not only highlight the trailblazing women from the pa

Landsat Interns Observing Earth in Innovative and Creative Ways

“I specialize in the design and implementation of highly stylized animated worlds through 3D and 2D engines, as well as the development of realistic models and simulations,” Estevez said. “I am what some may refer to as a unicorn in the industry of design; a person who will research, wireframe, test, design, animate, implement, and even program to achieve the desired result of the missions I am honored to be tasked with.”


Estevez’s current project includes the development of an interactive g
