WABI covers Maine astronaut’s talk at CCA
WABI (Channel 5) reported on a talk by NASA astronaut and Caribou native Jessica Meir at the Collins Center for the Arts to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the Challenger Space Shuttle’s final flight. Meir spoke to about 600 Maine schoolchildren, according to the report. “I really think it’s important to try and instill in students and children that their dream might not be what my dream is or what your dream is,” Meir said. “They really need to follow what they’re passionate about. I think really that’s the only way to be happy in life is to make sure you’re really doing what it is that you’re passionate about.” WVII (Channel 7) also reported on Meir’s talk.
