    A day in the life of a rocket scientist at ESA πŸš€ #shorts

    πŸš€ It’s not rocket science… oh wait it is!

    Join Ariane 6 launch system architect, Tina, as she shows us a day in her life.

    Tina has worked on space transport systems for 20 years now. She first worked on the Automated Transfer Vehicle (ATV), then on the Ariane 5 Mid-life Evolution development and now on Europe’s newest launcher Ariane 6.

    How did she become a rocket scientist?

    β€œI was lucky enough to spend some months in French Guiana as a student for an internship and working there got me hooked – I was determined to come back for my job one day, and here I am: I spent a great part of 2023 in Kourou testing the Ariane 6 propulsion system, together with an amazing team of very skilled professionals.

    I consider myself extremely lucky to have a job and colleagues that make me want to get out of bed and into the office every day – because we love what we do and because the people are simply amazing!”
