Watch astronaut Christina Koch and Google’s James Manyika discuss space, technology, and discovery.
In the latest episode of our Dialogues on Technology and Society series, NASA astronaut, engineer, and scientist Christina Koch sits down with James Manyika, Google’s Senior Vice President of Research, Labs, Technology & Society.
Christina reflects on her trailblazing career — from spending 328 days aboard the International Space Station and conducting the historic first all-female spacewalk, to journeying around the Moon on NASA’s Artemis II mission.
She and James discuss viewing Earth as an electric blue “lifeboat” from 250,000 miles away, and the vital partnership between astronauts, robotics, and AI. Christina also explores the big question— “Are we alone?” —and shares her advice for future explorers: do what scares you, and support the people around you.
