   One of the first women to qualify on submarines Kayla Barron recently graduated with the Artemis astronauts class with a masters in nuclear engineering. Coincidence? I think not. One of the first women to set foot on the moon (or Mars) may be a Submariner.

Kayla Barron, a U.S. Navy lieutenant, is originally from Richland, Washington. She graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy with a bachelor's degree in systems engineering. A Gates Cambridge Scholar, Barron earned a master's degree in nuclear engineering from the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. As a submarine warfare officer, Barron served aboard the USS Maine (SSBN 741), completing three strategic deterrent patrols. She came to NASA from the U.S. Naval Academy, where she was serving as the flag aide to the superintendent.
