I was interested in aerospace and flying, and the U.S. is really the best place in the world for flying.

I don't know why I always liked aerospace engineering. I was in the 10th grade when I figured that's what I wanted to do.

The quickest way may not necessarily be the best.

Listen to the sounds of nature. Wishing you the best on your trek towards your dreams.

I would say if you have a dream, follow it. It doesn't really matter whether you are a woman or from India or from wherever.

The first view of the Earth is magical. It is a very overpowering realization that the Earth is so small. It affected me. I could not get over the notion that in such a small planet, with such a small ribbon of life, so much goes on. It is as if the whole place is sacred.
