WHAT I WOULD
CHANGE ABOUT
AIR TRAVEL:
Two pads of standard-rule,
letter-size paper
My best ideas are recorded
and revealed when I write and
draw by hand.
The limits on carry-on liquids!
Narrow seats. Undressing at security.
And airlines nickel-and-diming
passengers for everything — regardless
of how much you pay for your ticket.
SHUTTLE
DIPLOMAT
A box of Ticonderoga
No. 2 HB pencils
All sharpened to an
exquisite point.

There is no single path to becoming an astronaut.
American Mae Jemison intended to be a professional
dancer, excelled in science, trained and practiced
as a doctor, and then, inspired by a character on
“Star Trek,” applied to the NASA astronaut training
program. She became, in 1992, the first black woman
to travel in space, onboard the shuttle Endeavour.
Subsequently, she has used her renown as a platform
to advocate for science education for children,
promote medical research and travel the world as
an inspirational speaker, a schedule that allows her
to sometimes drop by her favorite destinations: New
York, Seychelles, London, Chicago, St. Lucia and
Auckland. Though no longer an astronaut, she has
gotten to play one: as Lt. Palmer in the 150th episode
of “Star Trek: The Next Generation,” making her the
first real astronaut to appear on the show. Asked
to name the similarities between space travel and
modern jet travel, she succinctly answers, “None.”
