Being Inspired by NASA Events Across Continents

This conversation reflects on what it felt like to attend NASA-related events across continents and how those experiences shape the way students think about space, technology, and learning. I’m joined by Muhammad Bilal, a fellow Microsoft Student Ambassador based in Pakistan, following his attendance at an in-person aerospace session at the National Incubation Center for Aerospace Technology (NICAT). The event featured George “Gabe” Gabrielle, a former NASA engineer from Kennedy Space Center, and brought together students, industry, and government stakeholders. Rather than breaking down technical details, our discussion focuses on perspective — what it means to encounter NASA not as a distant institution, but as part of a broader, global ecosystem that students can engage with from many disciplines. Muhammad also shares reflections he later posted publicly about the event, including observations around global standards, reliability in high-stakes systems, and the role of ecosystems in turning ideas into real infrastructure. These were his takeaways from the session, and they helped anchor a wider conversation about how learning, curiosity, and collaboration translate across borders. We talk candidly about: Experiencing NASA events from different parts of the world Why space is no longer limited to aerospace engineering alone How software, cybersecurity, geospatial work, and communication intersect with space What it means to see global opportunity up close as a student This is a reflective conversation, not a keynote — a snapshot of how exposure, timing, and shared curiosity can quietly reshape how you think about your path. Question for you: What experience has most changed how you see your place in technology?
