“Feel the fear and do it anyway.”

That’s the mantra that took Anna-Maria Rivas McGowan (BSAAE '92) to thrive at NASA Langley, DARPA, NATO, and now as founder of her own consulting company. Returning regularly to the West Lafayette campus to speak in AAE classrooms and other engineering program events, McGowan continues to inspire the next generation of engineers with her journey.

A rocket descends out of the darkness and lands perfectly upright.

That historic moment has since carried the SpaceX Falcon 9 Booster Landing Team past 600 missions and reshaped how the world thinks about access to space.

The team turned decades of reusability research into a booster stage that returns from launch, lands with pinpoint accuracy and flies again and again. The team is honored tonight in Washington, D.C., as inaugural laureates of Purdue University’s Neil Armstrong Space Prize.

Watch the full video to hear the team describe what it felt like in the moment they realized the landing had worked: https://bit.ly/4h6eF9A

"Collaboration in your career is a superpower. Develop relationships with people who are as good as you, or better. When you work together, great ideas will start popping, and that will make you better than you could ever be by yourself."

-Marty Waszak (BSAAE 1981, MSAAE 1984), retired after a 35-year career at NASA Langley. He served as researcher, technologist, project manager and many other roles.
