Space Science Career Roadmap with Lokesh Gurjar

Outside of cybersecurity, my passion is space exploration. I’ve discovered two asteroids through a NASA-backed organization International Astronomical Search Collaboration, and I’ve served as an Analog Astronaut at Habitat Marte, Brazil, where I researched sustainable habitability for Mars.

In this session, you’ll learn:

• How asteroid hunting works and how I made my discoveries
• What it’s like to be an Analog Astronaut in a Mars habitat simulation
• How to join space clubs, events, and citizen science projects
• Entry points to careers with ISRO, IIST, and private space companies in India
• Building your own space science roadmap

If you’ve ever dreamed of combining your career with a passion for the cosmos, I’ll give you the exact steps to do.
