In 2010, a New York City photographer started Humans of New York – a photojournalism experiment that tells a unique story about each of his portrait subjects.
In November 2015, Humans of New York featured Max, a young aspiring reporter who wanted to interview the head of NASA about the agency’s plans for future exploration missions.
Max’s dream to interview NASA Administrator Charles Bolden came true Monday, when the two sat down at NASA Headquarters.
We shared the resulting video this morning on NASA’s social media sites.

Max represents the Mars Generation – the young people who will help propel NASA on
a journey to the Red Planet. Max’s curiosity represents the kid in all of us. We share his wonder and awe at the incredible human achievements in space – and here on Earth.
On behalf of the team here at NASA, thanks to Max, his parents, and Humans of New York, for sharing our dream.
