Hey friends, have you heard about Alyssa Carson? Most of the people have surely dreamt of going on a NASA mission some or the other day. But this young lady is going to live the NASA mission in reality. Yes! Because she is pursuing her training to become a successful astronaut.

She was only three years when she loved to watch cartoons related to space, Mars, and other planets. ‘The Backyardigans’ cartoon show was her favorite one which was all about Mars, a red planet. She was a kid but her determination to be an astronaut was always there. The wall of her bedroom has almost got covered by pictures of space, planets, and so on.

She first discovered her dream when she went to space camp for the first time. She was so overwhelmed that she can’t stop her going there 18 more times.
