Live video webcast will inspire and motivate youth to reach for the stars and work in the Space programs.

Webcast with six engineers from NASA/Jet Propulsion Laboratory (NASA/JPL)
and California Institute of Technology (CalTech).

The web broadcast is to highlight engineering opportunities in the Space program to high school and college students.  Webcast viewers will be able to submit their questions to the presenters during the broadcast.

"We are very excited to present the leadership of JPL/NASA Latino engineers through the use of our live video webcast." said Armando Sanchez, LatinoGraduate.net Founder and Executive Director.  "We hope to continue our programs that will bridge students throughout the nation in both math and science with the engineering occupation in space exploration."

"'We are honored and excited about the opportunity to communicate with students and parents through this webcast." said NASA Engineer, Dr. Alfonso Feria, Ph.D., "This is a great opportunity to encourage students to pursue their education in the science and engineering fields, be part of one of our nations greatest achievements and show them that they can reach their dreams."

The people participating in this webcast come from different backgrounds and work in different areas to provide a better insight on how they have made their dreams come true.  Some of the objectives of the JPL Latino Organization, Amigos Unidos, are to provide community outreach and to encourage Latino students to pursue higher education.
