      I remember first being interested in space when I was 4 years old, watching the Solar eclipse in 1999. I also had a poster of the Beagle 2 mission on my bedroom when I was about 8 years old. But when I got really interested in stars and astronomy was when I was 10 or 11, and a family friend who was an astronomer showed me how to use telescopes and how to track satellites across the sky.
