Daje Aga: “Hi, my name is Aga, I live in a small town in Poland. I would like to tell you about how the Rosetta mission influenced my life. I fell in love with astronomy at the age of six: I asked Santa to get me a telescope for Christmas and I’ve been spending my pocket money on books I still have today.
Everyone kept telling me I couldn’t become a scientist, because people like me just don’t become scientists: I’d have to be born in the USA and so on… A couple years later I’ve learned about the Rosetta mission. I’ve been following its progress and I was moved seeing tears on faces of ESA personnel when the probe sent signal to Earth. I was proud of what Europe has achieved.
I’ve started telling people about the mission and I’ve written an article about it to show what marvels are done by, among others, my countrymen. I though that if we can land a probe on a comet dashing through space, why would my dream of becoming a scientist remain a fantasy? The ESA inspired me and the Rosetta mission launched me towards starting physics studies.”
