Soaring into Aerospace: NASA Interns Take Flight at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh
Tumblr media
Sustainable Aviation Ambassadors Alex Kehler, Bianca Legeza-Narvaez, Evan Gotchel, and Janki Patel pose in front of the NASA Pavilion at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh.
It’s that time of year again–EAA AirVenture Oshkosh is underway!
Boasting more than 650,000 visitors annually, EAA AirVenture Oshkosh, or “Oshkosh” for short, is an airshow and fly-in held by the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA). Each year, flight enthusiasts and professionals from around the world converge on Oshkosh, Wisconsin, to engage with industry-leading organizations and businesses and celebrate past, present, and future innovation in aviation.
This year, four NASA interns with the Electrified Powertrain Flight Demonstration (EPFD) project count themselves among those 650,000+ visitors, having the unique opportunity to get firsthand experience with all things aerospace at Oshkosh.
Alex Kehler, Bianca Legeza-Narvaez, Evan Gotchel, and Janki Patel are Sustainable Aviation Ambassadors supporting the EPFD project, which conducts tests of hybrid electric aircraft that use electric aircraft propulsion technologies to enable a new generation of electric-powered aircraft. The focus of Alex, Bianca, Evan, and Janki’s internships cover everything from strategic communications to engineering, and they typically do their work using a laptop. But at Oshkosh, they have a special, more hands-on task: data collection.
“At Oshkosh, I am doing some data collection to better estimate how we can be prepared in the future,” said Janki, an Aerospace Engineering major from the University of Michigan. “Coming to Oshkosh has been an amazing experience… I can walk around and see people passionate about the work they do.”
Tumblr media
The NASA Pavilion at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh is full of interactive exhibits and activities for visitors to engage with. NASA Interns Alex, Bianca, Evan, and Janki are collecting data in the pavilion to help improve future exhibits at Oshkosh.
In addition to gathering data to help inform future NASA exhibits and activities at Oshkosh, the interns also have the opportunity to engage with visitors and share their passion for aviation with other aero enthusiasts. For Evan, who is receiving his Master's in Aerospace Engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology, “being able to be here and talk with people who are both young and old who are interested in what the future of flight could be has been so incredible.”
Tumblr media
Alex, Evan, Bianca, and Janki pose in front of NASA’s Super Guppy, a specialized aircraft used to transport oversized cargo.
At Oshkosh, one memory in particular stands out for Alex, Bianca, Evan, and Janki: seeing NASA’s famous Super Guppy in person. With a unique hinged nose and a cargo area that's 25 feet in diameter and 111 feet long, the Super Guppy can carry oversized cargo that is impossible to transport with other cargo aircraft. 
“We had a very lucky experience… We were able to not only see the Super Guppy, we got to get up close when it landed,” said Bianca, who is receiving her Master's in Business Administration with a specialization in Strategic Communications from Bowling Green State University. “From a learning experience, it gave me a way better basis on cargo aircraft and how they operate.” 
For Alex, who is receiving his Master's in Aeronautical Engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology, it was exciting to see the Super Guppy’s older technology integrated with newer technologies up close. “There have been a lot of good memories, but I think the best one was the Super Guppy. It was cool to see this combination of 60’s and 70’s technology with this upgraded plane.”
Tumblr media
Evan and Janki pose for a photo while walking around EAA AirVenture Oshkosh.
With Oshkosh coming to a close this Sunday, July 30, Alex, Bianca, Evan, and Janki also reflected on advice they have for future NASA interns on how they can get the most out of their internship: be curious and explore, connect with people who work in the field you’re interested in, and don’t be afraid to ask questions.
Alex advises potential NASA interns to “dream big and shoot for your goals, and divide that up into steps… In the end it will work out.” For Bianca, being open and exploring is key: “take opportunities, even if it’s the complete opposite thing that you were intending to do.”
Tumblr media
“Ask questions all the time,” said Evan. “Even outside the internship, always continue asking people about what they are knowledgeable on.” And Janki encourages future interns to “Follow your own path. Get the help of mentors, but still do your own thing.”
Visiting Oshkosh and want to see NASA science in action? Stop by the NASA Pavilion, located at Aviation Gateway Park, and see everything from interactive exhibits on sustainable aviation, Advanced Air Mobility, Quesst, and Artemis to STEM activities–and you may even meet NASA pilots, engineers, and astronauts! At Oshkosh, the sky’s the limit.

To my beautiful gorgeous girlies out there. Never accept an unpaid internship. Ever. Set the precedent that no matter how prestigious an internship is, we will NOT work for it without compensation. You are worth so much more than that.

As much as I'd love a team up mission with Jirou and Present Mic working together, I think Jirou ultimately made the right choice about who to intern with. Jirou Kyouka loves music and wants to be a limelight hero to some extent but she doesn't want to be mainstream. Preferring to keep her indie music roots and playing to her core strengths as a hero. She wants to specialize in rescue and covert ops.
Interning with Present Mic wouldn't give her the expertise and experience she'd need in those areas. Gang Orca's much more established agency and focus on rescue helps her more. Not to mention his bio-sonar based abilities gives him unique insights into Jirou's earphone jack hearing capabilities. He can help her expand upon her quirk.
Mic doesn't take it personally. He even recommends Jirou to Gang Orca with a personal letter of recommendation. He understands she needs a different mentor who can take her sound based quirk to the next level. For the same reasons that Shinsou Hitoshi works with Eraserhead and not him even though Shinsou has a vocal quirk. They're better mentors out there for his students and he wants them to succeed.
Mic encourages Jirou to ask her crush Kaminari out when she feels ready to. He thinks in time with more maturity and slightly better communication; they could be a great couple. He thinks Kaminari is a sweet kid even when he can be a bit of a goofball. He sees a great friendship (kind of like how his and Aizawa's was) in the pairing and he knows how that kind of love between people could change and grow to be something beautiful.
Jirou, for her part, thanks her sensei for the recommendation. He's still someone she can respect (being her English teacher and a pro hero) but she needs to find her own path. She's glad he's encouraging her to move forward with her dreams.

some thoughts on imposter syndrome
i just started a new software engineering job last week and today i talked with my manager on dealing with imposter syndrome.
Common feelings:
i don't know what i don't know to ask questions
feeling useless and not really helping the team
i could contribute to the team's work if i knew how to contribute
Manager's thoughts:
sometimes you just have to sit with it!
soon you'll be busy enough you forget about all of these feelings
i am not expected to be doing anything but reading documents and learning and experimenting so don't be upset
so much information is out there, so take in what you can and you can learn as you go but don't feel rushed to learn everything at once
your job is to learn so don't feel guilty about just learning and not contributing.. once this feeling impedes you from working and learning, then that's a problem
this feeling will pass and it'll be okay

Hi Mr. ENTJ, congrats on the new job offer. It's good to hear INTJ and Kobe & Co. are doing well, too.
I'm an ENTJ currently in my fourth year of my Computer Science PhD specializing in Machine Learning/Data Mining, and I know that you know how quickly this field moves. There's loads of advice about how "doctoral programs a marathon, not a sprint" and students need to pace themselves and have work-life balance in order to not burn out. Following these principles, I've made it this far unscathed (in terms of mental health deterioration) and managed to stay in my program.
With luck, an understanding advisor, and low amounts of admin work (emails, meetings-that-could-be-emails, etc.), and good self management, I have been able to work 40 hour workweeks for the most part and stay on track. That being said, I am currently in a period of time where I am increasing to 50 hour workweeks in order to meet a conference deadline at the end of June 2023 (time of writing is mid-late April 2023). As long as I show up to work every day and do my best, I expect this paper will be finished by the time my internship starts. This is fine by me; deadlines need to be met, and I want to continue with my current 5-year PhD trajectory (as opposed to taking longer).
Speaking candidly, I have ADHD and am also Autistic, and maintaining this 40hr/week is critical in preventing the "I wake up in the morning wondering if I've accomplished anything meaningful with my life" feeling that gets in the way of me doing very much at all with my day. I also notice that when I am in the *deep throes* of burnout, my ability to pull back and look at the bigger picture takes a nap and I make myopic, hasty decisions. It's a recipe for bad research.
I've relaxed my "good work-life balance" constraint to simply "do not enter the *deep throes* of burnout". My question is for what lies after this period of time: I will be entering a summer research internship. I am concerned I will not perform well at my internship and will not be able to study as hard for full time interviews as a result of my choices now. Any tips for optimizing this recovery time and post-burnout damage control? Is this an ill-posed question, and there is no way to have my cake and eat it too?
Thanks for your time and consideration, Mr. ENTJ.
You can have your cake and eat it too, you'll just need to endure for the next few months.
Some thoughts on your situation in no particular order:
Get therapy and medication for the ADHD and autism if you haven't already. Mental health issues should never be left untreated especially when you're attempting ambitious and difficult goals. It would be like trying to win a race with a broken leg.
Set strict guardrails to get adequate sleep and nutrition. Don't compromise on either of these two because it'll severely impact performance. During the most intense periods of my life, meal planning worked really well so I could grab and go healthy meals without long prep time. Poor health choices lead to low energy, brain fog, and bad moods. Healthy food/snacks, hydration, vitamins, exercise (even a quick 15 minutes of cardio when my scheduled was packed) made me 10x more effective.
Reach out to the summer internship team and learn more about expectations so you can start planning ahead to manage your time and prepare to hit the ground running. Most summer internships aren't time-consuming and energy draining to the point they'd grind you down to dust. This is because interns require a lot of time to onboard which cuts into the 3-month summer term and they have limited access to information, skills, and experience needed to do more complex work. I wouldn't jump the gun and stress about underperforming without knowing the full scope of your role and responsibilities.
Ensure that you have at least one person from your summer internship who can speak highly of you. In the unlikely event you don't perform well in your internship, you'll still walk away with a solid professional reference to use for future full-time job offers. Pro tip: Companies won't interview every single person at the internship even if you fuck up. As long as they can verify you worked there and you have at least 1 person (more is better) who can speak to your abilities, you'll be fine.
Prioritize full-time job interviews > summer internships if the summer internship has a low chance of conversion to a full-time role. If the opposite is true, reverse that order. If you need to prioritize one of these two, prioritize the one that secures your desired outcome.
Focus on outcomes over input. Focus on the things you achieve, the milestones you reach, and the obstacles you overcome-- not the amount of hours you put in. A few weeks ago I fixed a $5 million problem by clearing up a misunderstanding with a 90-minute conversation. This 90-minute conversation was way more impactful than the 40-50 hours of work I put in the previous week. There's that John Wooden quote: "Don't mistake activity for achievement." Benchmark your progress towards achieving a 'meaningful life' with impact, not input.

Do you have advice for college students going into naturalist/environmental lines of work?
Hey there, sorry it took me a couple of days to answer.
I can only tell you what has worked for me in my career...
I volunteered A LOT, at zoos, nearby nature centers, with local herpetological and birdwatching groups (running AV for presenters), and if i heard about a professor or grad student working on a field project... i volunteered for them, as well.
Obviously, read read read, try to keep up with the most recent natural history books and field guides. Follow science and natural history publications, in print or online, and read lots of articles in your field.
Also, i took a lot of internships in different fields of environmental education, interpretation, and field biology. They don't pay a lot, but National Parks and National Wildlife Refuges usually provide housing, and you normally get some kind of meager pay. The field experience can be invaluable.

2023.11.14.
I love brunch with friends before class. It is something you can only do while you’re in university. This new cafe that serves yogurt bowls is so aesthetically pleasing. I wish they had opened sooner. I am going to crave this when I graduate. Hopefully I can have a flexible schedule when I start working(If I ever get a job in the first place).
Finally submitted the cover letter I jad been stuck on and applied to an internship. I immediately edited the other cover letter for the other internship as well. Job hunting is the absolute worst. My schedule is not but my anxiety is building up.

Next Gen @ NASA: Celebrating National Intern Day
To celebrate National Intern Day, we asked interns to share how they got their internship and their perspective and advice to the next generation of prospective NASA interns.
Meet our interns and check out their suggestions for the next generation.
Sarah Kilpatrick, STDCE-2 Data Intern
Sarah is a summer Surface Tension Driven Convection Experiment Data Intern at NASA. Her inspiration for applying for an internship came from a passion for science from an early age. “I grew up in a family that liked, enjoyed and appreciated science and the fun of it all,” she recalls. “I grew up watching PBS, NOVA, and other science shows, so when I saw NASA had opportunities for students like me, I was very interested.” 
Sarah’s advice to the next generation of NASA interns is one of perseverance and resilience.
Nicholas Natsoulas, Attitude Control Engineering Intern
Nicholas is a summer Attitude Control Engineering Intern at NASA. He wants to contribute to scientific innovation and discovery. “Overall, what inspired me to apply and come to work here was to contribute to the scientific exploration of space while learning about unique perspectives and innovative space discoveries.”
Nicholas’s advice for prospective NASA interns is to make the most out of your time here and to be a curious and eager learner.
“Use all the resources that are at your center and ask questions about projects you are working on. Don’t be afraid to talk to your mentor about your plans for the future and ask for any advice you may need, as they are more than willing to help you during your time here,” says Nicholas.
Tumblr media
Nicholas and his mentor, Brent Faller, are using software to inform design decisions on a variety of spacecraft.
Nylana Murphy, former Additive Manufacturing Engineering Intern
As an American Indian College Fund ambassador and a Navajo engineer, Nylana Murphy hopes her internship story will inspire others to pursue a career in aerospace.
After attending the American Indian Science Engineering Society Conference, Nylana secured an internship in the additive manufacturing research laboratory at NASA Marshall.
 “My internships have helped me get to where I am,” she says, “There is a career for everyone, where their dreams can become reality. Those dreams WILL become a reality.”
Tumblr media
You might be wondering: what happens after a NASA internship Here’s what two of our former interns did.
Loral O’Hara, Astronaut, former intern
Lorel interned at NASA JPL in 2003, and at NASA Goddard in 2004. She earned science degrees from both the University of Kansas and Purdue University.
As a research and project engineer, O’Hara reported for duty in August 2017 and completed two years of training as an Astronaut Candidate. She is projected to fly in Soyuz missions as a NASA astronaut soon.
If she could go back in time, Loral says she would tell her younger self to enjoy the opportunities that come her way—and never stop looking for new ones. “Enjoy the whole journey of…figuring out what it is that you like to do and exploring all different kinds of things.”
Tumblr media
Jeff Carlson, Assembly, Test, Launch Operations Engineer
The “7 Minutes of Terror” video piqued Jeff Carlson’s interest in working at JPL. He thought, "That's the coolest thing I've ever heard of. I've got to go be a part of that in some way." While interning at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, he worked on Starshade, a sunflower-shaped device used to block starlight in order to reveal planets orbiting a star. Later, he went on to work on the team tasked with assembling and testing the “head” and “neck” (officially called the Remote Sensing Mast) for the Mars 2020 rover.

Volunteer Work and Unpaid Internships: What's Legal?
What counts as "employment" might seem straightforward enough... until you're working for a non-profit, or as an intern.
What's the difference between volunteering for a non-profit and working there, besides the allowed pay rate? Can you work 40 hours during the week for your non-profit employer and then still volunteer for them over the weekends, too?
And what's the deal with unpaid internships? They're work, but they're not, and therefore they can be unpaid, despite minimum wage laws? How is that legal? When is that legal?
For that matter, what about those high school programs that involve working for an employer as part of a class? How does that work?
Most of the relevant law here is federal.
When it comes to "for-profit" employers, the Department of Labor has a handy dandy fact sheet explaining the law.
Unpaid internships and student work positions may potentially not qualify as "employees" under the Fair Labor Standards Act, which is the relevant law having to do with minimum wage, overtime, etc.
As per case law, the distinction comes from which party is the "primary beneficiary" of the arrangement. If the intern/student worker is benefiting more from the training and educational experience of their internship than the employer is benefiting from the work that they generate, then they are not considered an "employee" and do not need to be paid under the usual FLSA rules. On the other hand, if the employer is benefiting more from the work they're getting than the intern/student is from the experience, then they're an "employee" and need to be paid accordingly.
The court has made a list of seven factors to be considered when determining who's benefiting more from the arrangement, including things like "The extent to which the intern’s work complements, rather than displaces, the work of paid employees"--in other words, if the work the intern is doing would be done by regular employees if the intern wasn't there, that's a bad sign for the legitimacy of that internship's unpaid status. Other factors include the internship being tied to the school with coursework or credit, having educational training as part of the internship, etc. The intern is supposed to be learning from the internship--that's the whole point.
There are definitely industries where doing non-educational, entry-level work as part of an "unpaid internship" is commonplace, but under the FLSA, that's illegal, and some recent court cases involving big-name employers have involved substantial settlements for "unpaid internships" that didn't follow the FLSA rules.
Some states, like California and New York, have even more restrictive rules about unpaid internships, but the federal rules apply to unpaid internships throughout the United States.
As for non-profit volunteer work, well, the Department of Labor has a handy-dandy fact sheet for that one, too.
The non-profit charitable designation is not the only thing necessary to determine that someone can volunteer there; the volunteer work being done also has to be for a charitable rather than a commercial purpose. The fact sheet specifically mentions that volunteering in a gift shop likely isn't allowed even when the gift shop is for a non-profit organization, because the shop is itself a commercial enterprise and the work being done is commercial in nature.
As with interns/students, volunteer work becomes more suspect if it's displacing work that would otherwise be done by paid employees.
Also, if you work for a non-profit, you can volunteer for your employer outside of your regular work... but not by providing the same type of services you're employed to do. So, if you're employed as a marketer for an animal shelter, coming in on the weekends to clean cages and walk dogs would likely be perfectly fine volunteer work, but coming in on the weekends to draft the shelter's newsletter would likely be considered part of your regular employment, and thus subject to minimum wage and overtime rules.
That last restriction doesn't apply if the place you're volunteering for isn't your employer, though. So, if you're employed as a bus driver for the local school district, you can't volunteer to drive students around for field trips, but you can volunteer to be the driver for your local church's youth group trips, since the church isn't regularly employing you as a bus driver.
Another thing that can make volunteer work suspect is when benefits or bonuses are provided. Volunteer positions "working for tips" are usually breaking the law; things like providing free rounds of golf to volunteer caddies or free memberships/classes to volunteer gym trainers are also highly suspect.
There is some allowance for reimbursing volunteers for expenses incurred by their volunteer work, but this cannot be in the place of regular compensation and cannot include "reimbursements" for expenses that are not actually related to the volunteer work done.

The number of times I'll ask an intern about their upcoming schedules so I know what to expect for my own schedule and they'll be like, "But I mean, if you really need me to come in more than that...."
Stop! Protect that boundary! Tell us no! Nonprofit culture can be just as toxic as corporate culture but more insidious because it dresses up its labor exploitation as ~charitable~ and ~humanitarian~! Oh, but we do this work because we care....no, we do this work because it's an emergency stopgap measure on an unjust system that's inevitably going to crash and burn! This work will absolutely take advantage of the kindness in your heart and drain you until all that's left is bitterness and cynicism.
Anyway, if you're a volunteer in social services or whatever, don't give us the inch we need to drag a mile out of you.
