I don't ever remember being interested in Space as a child but recently I've become very interested in it and multiple paths that were seemingly unrelated have converged almost providentially pointing me toward the subject.
I decided recently that the language I want to study through the end of high school and college will be Russian. Along with beginning to study the language I decided to begin a study of Leninist socialism and the Soviet Union from a Reformed perspective (last time I studied this subject much I was not the same theologically). Along with a study of the USSR I've been really interested in their cosmonaut history, especially Yuri Gagarin.
Unrelated, my sister (USAF officer, soon to be surgeon, double major in chemistry and biology) spent a week with us and helped me with my science (currently chemistry), which was always my least favorite subject because I never understood it at all. Thanks to her I began to understand my science work a lot more and the previously unthinkable happened: I began to enjoy studying it.
As all of this has happened within the same span of time, a new interest and passion for science and space, I can't help but think something in my future might be related to it. I've even discussed with my mother the possibility of being an officer in the Space Force, not to be an astronaut, but to be closer to the research and discoveries. I know that in years past there have been some different viewpoints on this board on space travel and research. I would appreciate any advice, questions, or prayers. Thank you.
