In 1981, a 9-year-old girl named Mai arrived in San Jose, California with her mother and two younger brothers. They had fled Vietnam by boat. They had nothing.

Mai learned English in one year. She was obsessed with math. Her teacher in 6th grade wrote in her file: "This student will do something extraordinary."

She studied aerospace engineering at UCLA. Applied to NASA in 1995. Was accepted.

For 28 years, Mai Nguyen worked on propulsion systems for NASA at Kennedy Space Center.

In 2023, she retired as a Senior Systems Engineer.

She has been a part of 11 missions.

Her mother, now 84, still doesn't fully understand what NASA does.

"You make the rockets go up?" she asks.

"Yes, Mama," Mai says. "I make the rockets go up." 🚀🇺🇸
