My name is Dr. James Rice. I'm an astrogeologist. I work in the solar system exploration division, here at Goddard Space Flight Center.

5
00:00:20,100 --> 00:00:24,080
Being a field geologist, my work has allowed me to go to all 7 continents

6
00:00:24,100 --> 00:00:28,110
which is quite an accomplishment. When I was a little boy, I remember, for punishment once I had to write the 7 continents

7
00:00:28,130 --> 00:00:32,110
on the blackboard for - I was talking in class too much. Now to actually

8
00:00:32,130 --> 00:00:36,120
to have visted every one of those continents is kind of amazing to think about.

00:00:36,140 --> 00:00:40,140
The most exciting thing I've done at this point is being a crew member on this

Desert R.A.T.S.

11
00:00:43,160 --> 00:00:44,139
There's a lot of opportunities here at Goddard.

12
00:00:44,160 --> 00:00:48,319
I'm still working on the Mars rovers here and I'm also

13
00:00:48,340 --> 00:00:52,340
involved in the Lunar Reconissance Orbiter

14
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:56,339
I think this is a great place to be, and I'm really happy to be here. You can do almost anything you want in this country

15
00:00:56,360 --> 00:01:00,360
if you really want to do it, you know? At least that's my experience.
