UTPB Lecture Series - Mike Massimino Mar 30 / Thursday 7:00 PM Please note for all events after January 1, 2022, we will have a clear bag policy with a size limit of 12x12x6" or a non-clear bag/wallet with a size limit of 8x5". This policy includes diaper bags.  A former NASA astronaut, a recurring character on The Big Bang Theory, and a New York Times Best-Selling author, Mike Massimino is sure to inspire! Mike grew up a working class kid. He says his big dream of becoming an astronaut was driven by determination and commitment and accomplished with hard work and humor. After two missions to the Hubble Telescope and four spacewalks to make critical repairs, Mike is now the Senior Adviser for Space Programs at the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum, an author, and in-demand speaker. Mike plans to share about teamwork, innovation, and leadership as a down to earth spaceman. More Info https://shepperdleadership.utpb.edu/events/distinguished-lecture-series/
