| My name is Heather; I
was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area of northern California. I love reading tons of books, scouring all types of
museums, watching NHL hockey, trying different types of tea, and
traveling to study other cultures.
suck at cooking but keep trying anyway, I play the piano, and my "Bond Girl" name is Farren Hite. My heroes include Jane Goodall, Stephen Hawking, Susan B. Anthony, Carl Sagan, Albert Einstein, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Eleanor Roosevelt. Starting in 2008, I have had the extraordinary pleasure of being employed by our nation's space program for Flight Simulation Research. After a rigorous screening process, I was invited to NASA for a Micro-Gravity Study, the following year for a Lunar Gravity Study, and also finally a Hypovolemia Study. All examine the effects of long-term weightlessness on the human body, in preparation for our eventual manned mission to planet Mars! I now promote these amazing programs, as the collective experiences have definitely been the most unique of my life! I developed a daily blog, detailing my tests, the work of the NASA scientists, and the history of research studies by world space agencies. My writings and photographs have been featured in FOX 26 Houston, FOX News New York, Popular Science Magazine, WIRED Science, Women's Radio, Planetary Radio, NewsRU in Russia, UK Skynews, and many other news outlets across the globe. |

Hey, guess my favorite TV show? |
| When I was a child, I set the goal of seeing all 50 states by the time I turned 50... and I am ahead of schedule! To date, I have lived in seven of our great states (as indicated by the house icons), and visited a grand total of 47. Only three more to go! Mouse-over any state on the map to see its name and capital city, and then click on each to see my state line sign photographs! |
