Natalie Spencer, Mechanical Engineering, NASA



Natalie Spencer, a Junior in Mechanical Engineering, sits at the ADCO (attitude determination and control) console in the International Space Station mission control for on-the-job-training during the October 2, 2009 Soyuz docking. It was a historic moment for the Space Station to have three Soyuz TMA rockets docked with a large crew inside, including Embry-Riddle graduate Astronaut Nicole Stott. Natalie greatly enjoyed seeing the milestone as well as watching Nicole float around in microgravity, having met her earlier in the year at the Daytona Beach campus and desiring to someday become an astronaut herself.
