It was a really, really good experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The NASA booth, at an event that attracted 18,000 people to the Mississippi Trade Mart and Coliseum on June 22-23, featured an immersive experience with virtual reality goggles. Participants were able to view an engine test conducted at NASA Stennis, take a virtual spacewalk while visiting the International Space Station, and experience a simulated rocket launch to Mars.<\/p>\n<p>One group enjoying the interaction with NASA was the Star Trek fan club from Jackson, Mississippi.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey were real big supporters of NASA,\u201d Frisbie said. \u201cThey loved the virtual reality experience and encouraged others at the convention to come by and visit with us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>NASA Stennis budget analyst Rebecca Mataya and engineers Paul Fuller, Steven Helmstetter, and Chris Barnett-Woods volunteered with Frisbie. The center employees talked to college students majoring in engineering, graphic design, architecture, education, and healthcare.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe assumption is everybody has to be an engineer to work at NASA, and that is not the case,\u201d Frisbie said. \u201cThere are all kinds of opportunities, and that was an eye opener for many.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Conversations centered on job opportunities and careers with NASA, as well as work conducted at NASA Stennis. The volunteers also fielded general questions about NASA\u2019s powerful SLS (Space Launch System) rocket and the agency\u2019s Artemis campaign of returning astronauts to the Moon for scientific discovery, economic benefits, and inspiration for a new generation of explorers: the Artemis Generation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe enjoyed telling the NASA story and how NASA Stennis on the Gulf Coast of Mississippi serves as an economic engine that contributes to this nation\u2019s space dreams,\u201d Frisbie added.<\/p>\n<div class=\"hds-image-carousel grid-container grid-container-block
