My passion for astronomy began as a child. Large parts of my years in elementary school were spent stargazing, reading up on the solar system and the universe, as well as renting the video of the first Moon landing and watching it over and over again. I remember telling my parents I was going to be the first human to walk on the surface of Mars (and while this is now a real option, my spirit sank a bit at the prospect of a one-way ticket). Over the years, my passion extended into other fields of physics, such as particle physics, and to this day, reading up on everything from astronomy and particle physics to quantum mechanics and nuclear fusion is a hobby of mine.
