QUESTION:
Why do you want to do the job that you are doing now?

ANSWER from Donna Shirley on March 8, 1997:
Because exploring the unknown is very exciting.  Because I like working
with the very creative engineers who design and build the Mars missions and
spacecraft and the scientists who find out about Mars from the missions'
data.  Because I've always been interested in flying, in the air or through
space.  Because I like solving problems.
