Lessons in leadership: Marshall Deputy Director Rick Burt


As deputy director of Marshall Space Flight Center, Rick Burt helps guide the next era in exploration and discovery for one of NASA’s largest field installations, with a broad portfolio of human spaceflight, science, and technology development efforts that touch nearly every mission NASA pursues.
Turns out growing up on his family’s farm in Columbia, Tennessee, was just the career training he needed. He and his older brother Danny spent weekends and summers as de facto farmhands – honing skills Burt would leverage throughout his NASA years.
“We quickly learned to be jacks-of-all-trades: carpenters, mechanics, veterinarians,” he said. “I grew up baling hay, tending livestock, running and repairing tractors, and tinkering with machinery – and the latter got me interested in engineering.” ....

A renewed focus on space travel has ignited interest in the NASA-approved Omega Speedmaster - and prices are on the rise
16 February 2021 • 11:46am
When the Apollo 11 crew took one small step for man on 20 July 1969, the Omega Speedmaster was right there with them
In 1957, Omega launched a trilogy of tool watches designed to meet the needs of three groups of men. For divers, there was the Seamaster; for train drivers the Railmaster; and for motor racers, the Speedmaster. While all three proved to be successful in their own fields, the Speedmaster would go on to capture the imagination of the world 12 years later, when it became the first (and so far, the only) watch to go to the Moon. ....
