Hi, my name is Donya Douglas Bradshaw, and I'm the project manager
for the Lucy Project, which will be the first mission to the Trojan asteroids.
Building a spacecraft is quite exciting.
I worked many decades as a mechanical engineer,
really focused on thermal and heat transfer.
And so when you work in that capacity, you are supporting
the development of spacecraft as well as instruments.
Hi, my name is Dr.
Carly Howett and I'm the instrument scientist of the MVIC camera on Lucy.
I love working on Lucy for so many reasons, but one of them is
being able to explore the universe from the comfort of my own office.
So I don't have to don diving gear or, you know, go into these dangerous
or hard situations.
I get to enjoy the data as it comes back from the comfort
of my office and explore the universe that way.
My name is Cory Prykull, and I am a mechanical operations
lead for the interplanetary spacecraft, Lucy.
My job is to plan and lead major mechanical operations
such as spacecraft transportations, spacecraft crane lifts,
or testing of major spacecraft components and ensure they go off without a hitch.
My name is Mike Sekerak, I'm the deputy project system engineer for Lucy,
the thing I like the most about project system
engineering, is that you get to touch all aspects of the mission
from the spacecraft, payload, and launch vehicle ground system, flight dynamics
- project system engineers
have oversight of all of those different aspects of the mission.
I'm Tiffany Kapler.
I am a public outreach specialist with the Lucy Mission.
And one of the things that I love about my job is that it gives me an opportunity
to use my creativity and share my enthusiasm for science
with others while I get them excited about space exploration.
Hi, I'm Rick Berry, and I am the configuration management
lead for the Lucy Mission at Goddard Space Flight Center.
We're building spacecraft.
We're building payloads and instruments at Goddard.
We coordinate with our team members to ensure that the configuration
management is correct by managing the changes and the requirements.
Hello, my name is Elizabeth McCall and I'm the project support specialist
for the Lucy Project.
One of the more memorable experiences I've had was just in July of this year,
I was able to fly with the spacecraft from Colorado to Florida on a C17.
My name is Vince Elliott, and I'm the Lucy deputy project manager over resources.
I lead a team of 12 and they are exceptional at what they do.
It also means I get to work with some of the brightest engineers
and scientists the world has ever known doing something that I love.
Hi, my name is James Tralie,
and I'm a producer and animator at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center.
And I created the video series you're currently watching right now.
I'm so excited to see Lucy launch, and I can't wait to share the complex
and exciting discoveries that we make out there at the Trojans
to you, the public, through film and animation.
Go, NASA, Go, Lucy!
