On Episode 233 of This Week In Space, hosts Tariq Malik and Rick Jenet sit down with Dr. Amanda Smith-Hackler of the Universities Space Research Association to talk about entering the space workforce in the Artemis generation. The conversation moves beyond astronaut hype and into the practical pipeline, covering university research, internships, and the less visible jobs that keep missions moving. For anyone wondering how a student with a telescope becomes someone who works on a lunar lander, this episode maps the route from classroom to launch pad, and it asks what skills the next generation will need to survive the long haul back to the Moon.
