Jan Davis, scientist, engineer and astronaut talks with Rick Chappell, director of Dyer Observatory. Davis is a veteran of three space shuttle flights, and a proponent of future space exploration. Her upbringing in the space town of Huntsville, Ala., launched her on a career in science, one which she hopes students, especially young women, will choose to emulate.
