Almost all sources here are related to the subject. The Forbes source is just a directory page. The school and local newspapers are not reliable about the accomplishments of local figures.

The statement of his actual technical role is too vague to be meaningful. "30 under 30" is a publicity gimmick, and his role as the "Face of NASA" is equally a publicity gimmick. It is appropriate for NASA to do PR, but not on Wikipedia DGG ( talk ) 23:14, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

• Delete - Sourcing in the article is either from NASA which is not independent, or from university press / local press. My own search for sourcing turns up little more. The best I could find was Vice article which is ot very substantial. -- Whpq (talk) 17:00, 31 October 2020 (UTC)
