Learning the basic principles of engineering on a farm in Maury County, Tennessee, Mr. Rick Burt parlayed that experience into nuclear and aerospace engineering. He worked his way up at NASA working on rocket systems, to become chief of testing and safety. Today, he is Deputy Director of the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, AL, where he is working on the next generation of space vehicles that will propel man back to the moon and beyond. Join Tom and guest co-host Judge Chris Sockwell as they discover what it takes to be a NASA engineer.
