AUSA’s Army Matters podcast amplifies the voices of the Total Army – one story at a time.

In early 2021, as Dr. Kate Rubins was floating above Earth in the International Space Station, she decided she wanted to give back to the country that had given so much to her. She immediately commissioned for the Army Reserves, and today is both prepping for NASA’s upcoming moon missions while also doing microbiological research and training for the Army. Hosts LTG (Ret.) Leslie C. Smith and SMA (Ret.) Dan Dailey sit down with MAJ Rubins to discuss her career as a microbiologist, what lessons she’s learned in the Reserves that she applies to her NASA work and what it’s like to tie your shoelaces in zero gravity.
Guest: MAJ Kate Rubins, PhD, U.S. Army Reserve and NASA Astronaut
