Sending humans to Mars has long been scientists' dream. This has never been done before. NASA is building a rocket to go to Mars. NASA is an organization in the USA that carries out space programmes. They are now building a rocket called Space Launch System. A company called Boeing, which builds airplanes and spaceships, is helping. Tiera Fletcher is an engineer working at Boeing. She is working on Space Launch System. It will be the largest rocket ever built.
Question one: What was your life like growing up?
Fletcher: I grew up in a small town called Mableton. It is right outside Atanta, Gicorgia. I was very interested in maths as a kid. My mum would take me on trips to the store. She would make me calculate the price of the things we bought. Later, my interests grew. I wanted to be a mathematician. I also wanted to be an inventor and scientist.
Question two: What is aerospace engineering, and how did you become interested in it?
Fletcher: Engineers solve problems. They do so by making products, such as machines. Aerospace engineers work with airplanes and spaceships. I took part in a school programme at age 11. It was about aerospace engineering. I decided that I wanted to become an aerospace engineer. In high school, I studied reverse thrust. Thrust is a pushing force (力). It moves airplanes forward. Engines(引擎) create thrust to push a lot of air backward. This causes the plane to move forward. Reverse thrust is a system. It is used in planes. It changes the direction that the air is pushed from the engine.
Question three: How did you come to work at Boeing, and what do you do there now?
Fletcher: I worked as an intern(实习生) at Boeing. Later, the company offered me a job. Today, I work on Space Launch System. I design some of its parts. The rocket is being built and tested now. It will be the largest rocket ever created. Its goal is to send people to Mars.
Question four: What challenges do you face at work and what have you done with them?
Fletcher: I'm 25, an African American and female. Most of the people I work with are older males. This has been a challenge. People may have unfair or negative(消极的) beliefs about me. I have been able to rise above this challenge. I work hard to prove that I can do my job well. It takes confidence and courage.
Question five: What advice do you have for students who might be interested in a career like yours?
Fletcher: Do your research! Also, keep an open mind. There are so many choices out there in science, technology, engineering and maths. Try them all out. Keep trying new subjects until you find what you love. Do not limit yourself! You are capable(能干的) of more, you can do more, and you can be more.

将人类送上火星一直是科学家们的梦想。这以前从未实现过。美国国家航空航天局（NASA）正在建造一枚前往火星的火箭。NASA是美国的一个执行太空计划的机构。他们现在正在建造一枚名为“太空发射系统”的火箭。一家名为波音的制造飞机和宇宙飞船的公司正在提供帮助。蒂埃拉·弗莱彻是一名在波音公司工作的工程师。她正在参与“太空发射系统”的项目。它将成为有史以来建造的最大的火箭。
问题一：你成长过程中的生活是什么样的？
弗莱彻：我在一个叫梅布尔顿的小镇长大。它就在佐治亚州亚特兰大的郊外。我小时候对数学非常感兴趣。我妈妈会带我去商店购物。她会让我计算我们买的东西的价格。后来，我的兴趣不断增长。我想成为一名数学家。我也想成为一名发明家和科学家。
问题二：什么是航空航天工程，你是如何对它产生兴趣的？
弗莱彻：工程师解决问题。他们通过制造产品（如机器）来做到这一点。航空航天工程师从事飞机和宇宙飞船相关的工作。我11岁时参加了一个学校项目。它是关于航空航天工程的。我决定我想成为一名航空航天工程师。在高中时，我研究了反推力。推力是一种推力。它使飞机向前移动。引擎产生推力，将大量空气向后推。这使得飞机向前移动。反推力是一个系统。它用于飞机。它改变了引擎推动空气的方向。
问题三：你是如何到波音公司工作的，你现在在那里做什么？
弗莱彻：我曾在波音公司做实习生。后来，公司给了我一份工作。如今，我参与“太空发射系统”的项目。我设计它的一些部件。这枚火箭目前正在建造和测试中。它将成为有史以来制造的最大的火箭。它的目标是将人类送上火星。
问题四：你在工作中面临什么挑战，你是如何应对它们的？
弗莱彻：我25岁，是一名非裔美国女性。和我一起工作的大多数人都是年长的男性。这是一个挑战。人们可能对我有不公平或负面的看法。我已经能够克服这个挑战。我努力工作以证明我能把工作做好。这需要信心和勇气。
问题五：对于可能对你这样的职业感兴趣的学生，你有什么建议？
弗莱彻：进行研究！此外，保持开放的心态。在科学、技术、工程和数学领域有很多选择。都尝试一下。不断尝试新的学科，直到你找到你热爱的。不要限制自己！你有能力做得更多，你可以做得更多，你可以成为更优秀的人。
