When NASA recently announced it’s looking for a planetary protection officer, Jack Davis figured he was just the guy for the job. After all, he already calls himself the “Guardian of the Galaxy.”
Jack, a 9-year-old from New Jersey, summarized his qualifications in an Aug. 3 letter to NASA.
“I may be nine but I think I would be fit for the job,” he wrote. “One of the reasons is my sister says I’m an alien also.”
