What can building spaceships teach us about teams?
You’ve probably worked on teams, collaborating with groups of people to achieve shared goals. And it can be really difficult. Now imagine working with an immense team to do something as difficult as building a successful space mission. Tracy Drain has done it. Repeatedly. She’s the Lead Flight Systems Engineer for NASA’s Europa Clipper Mission, and she talks with Cady and Andrew about what she’s learned about running successful collaborations. Also, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Donnie Darko, and The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy references, Andrew swoons over Tears for Fears covers and mashups, and a dreamy new Sounds of Space from the great folks at SYSTEM Sounds.
