Zusammenfassung: | "Elio Morillo's life is abruptly spun out of orbit when economic collapse and personal circumstances compel his mother to flee Ecuador for the United States in search of a better future for her son. His itinerant childhood sets into motion a migration that will ultimately carry Elio to the farthest expanse of human endeavor: space. Overcoming a history of systemic adversity and inequality in public education, Elio forged ahead on a journey as indebted to his galactic dreams as to a loving mother whose sacrifices safeguarded the ground beneath his feet. Today, Elio is helping drive human expansion into the solar system and promote the future of human innovation--from AI and robotics to space infrastructure and equitable access" -- |

His itinerant childhood sets into motion a migration that will ultimately carry Elio to the farthest expanse of human endeavor: space. Overcoming a history of systemic adversity and inequality in public education, Elio forged ahead on a journey as indebted to his galactic dreams as to a loving mother whose sacrifices safeguarded the ground beneath his feet. Today, Elio is helping drive human expansion into the solar system and promote the future of human innovation--from AI and robotics to space infrastructure and equitable access" -- Raumfahrt (DE-588)4048574-2 gnd rswk-swf Ingenieur (DE-588)4026955-3 gnd rswk-swf Hispanos (DE-588)4240086-7 gnd rswk-swf Luft- und Raumfahrtindustrie (DE-588)4048576-6 gnd rswk-swf Einwanderer (DE-588)4151434-8 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf Morillo, Elio / 1993- Aeronautical engineers / United States / Biography Aeronautical engineers / Ecuador / Biography Hispanic American engineers / Ecuador / Biography Manned space flight / Systems engineering / Biography Ingénieurs en aéronautique / États-Unis / Biographies Ingénieurs en aéronautique / Équateur / Biographies Vol spatial habité / Ingénierie des systèmes / Biographies BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Personal Memoirs BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Science & Technology BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Cultural, Ethnic & Regional / Hispanic & Latino Hispanic American engineers Manned space flight / Systems engineering Ecuador Autobiographies autobiographies (literary works) Biographies (DE-588)4003939-0 Autobiografie gnd-content USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Ingenieur (DE-588)4026955-3 s Luft- und Raumfahrtindustrie (DE-588)4048576-6 s Raumfahrt (DE-588)4048574-2 s Hispanos (DE-588)4240086-7 s Einwanderer (DE-588)4151434-8 s DE-604 Molinari, Cecilia Sonstige oth Digitalisierung Deutsches Museum application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=034602782&sequence=000001&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Inhaltsverzeichnis |
