Me on NASA's Microgravity Plane - Greg Marsh
I am a Middle School Science Teacher at a NASA Explorer School in Michigan. My favorite Science topics are Astronomy, Ecology, and Physics. I am also a Sci-Fi fan, especially Star Trek and all associated series. Other interests and hobbies include playing the drums, crossword puzzles, working out, reading, and vegetarian/vegan cooking and eating - especially eating. Far and above, my favorite pastime is spending time with my family, particularly my high school sweetheart/husband of 22 years, Erik.
