As the saying goes, “one person’s trash is another person’s treasure” and at NASA, Annie Meier is that person! Annie is a space waste engineer working on technologies to convert waste into vital resources for human space travel. Trash can be used to produce important gasses and even water – commodities astronauts traveling to another planet can’t just pick up along the way. Ready to convert your passion for sustainability into a career? Don’t waste time, start preparing today with this hands-on activity: We’re launching STEM Engagement to new heights with learning resources that connect teachers, students, parents and caregivers to the inspiring work at NASA. Join us as we apply science, technology, engineering and mathematics to explore space, improve aeronautics, examine Earth and strive to land the first woman and first person of color on the Moon with the Artemis program.
