“You’re my favorite person to talk about space to.”

Joey Jefferson, a Mission Operations Engineer at NASA, talks with his outer space-obsessed six-year-old nephew Jerry Morrison. Together they explore why space is so fascinating, where they would live if they could choose another planet, and how much more we have to discover. As Joey says, “my hope is that you are always going to be doing and learning about the things that you love the most.”
