Last night, I completed the additional astronaut application forms and mailed in my transcripts. I'm officially complete with my application. :)

I started this blog to document the actions I am taking in trying to become an astronaut. It's my ultimate goal, my dream. Every week or so I post a new update to recap the week or add interesting pictures. I hope you enjoy the site and remember to follow your dreams no matter what others may think of them.

- Damaris Sarria Toepel

- Welcome to my blog! I grew up in California and later attended Texas A&M University to earn a Bachelor's degree in Aerospace Engineering. I also hold a Master's degree in Aeronautical Science from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. I previously worked at Kennedy Space Center for Boeing on the Space Shuttle Orbiter's Thermal Protection System. I transitioned to an engineering position with the MIT Lincoln Laboratory in Lexington, MA. I applied for the 2009 astronaut candidate program, but unfortunately did not get a call back. I applied again in early 2011 so fingers crossed! I currently am working on continuing my advanced education, involvement with space advocacy, and continuing to do all that I love in life!

Right on girl! Lots of fingers crossed and prayers going up (for me and for you)!
Looking forward to meeting you in Houston for our interviews! :)
Will you make it?
If you get denied this time, how long must you wait to apply again?
Well, now it's Godspeed to you! I hope you are selected and end up in the Moon program! I honestly do! And keep blogging about it! Think about it, first woman and first blogger on the Moon :) Now that'd be something!
What do you want to do exactly if you'll get selected?
