Ellen was the JSC first Hispanic director. She joined NASA in 1988 as a research engineer at Ames Research Center later moved to Johnson Space Center. She was chosen as an astronaut in 1990. This is important because she was the first Hispanic woman to go into space. She showed many young Hispanic kids that it is possible to go to space. I selected Ellen because space always interest me and the see a Hispanic woman in space is really cool to me.]]> 2021-10-21 15:32:33 UTC https://padlet.com/dquintero1001_2/75jp7eh1s13ikwk7/wish/1833941690 dquintero1001_2 https://padlet.com/dquintero1001_2/75jp7eh1s13ikwk7/wish/1840091651 Hector Elizondo is an American actor who is known for playing Phillip Watters and Ed Alzate.
