Cassini mission scientist Carolyn Porco talks about her life and experiences as a Saturn explorer.
This interview, in which Porco discusses her fascination with astronomy and planets, and how that fascination led her down her remarkable career path, was conducted by space historian Andrew Chalkin, and it is just so wonderful to watch.
Porco's love of scientific investigation and passion for what she does is so compelling, it's hard not to get lost in her stories of coming up in the Bronx, her accounts of past missions, and her continued enthusiasm for the science that she and the Cassini team are busy conducting to this day.
