Tracy Drain is a rarity: she has the enthusiasm of a child and the brain of a rocket scientist. Known as the “Dynamic Tracy Drain,”, she is a native Louisvillian and Flight Systems Engineer at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, where she works on the robotic exploration of the solar system. On Friday, June 16, she will present a special talk at the Copper & Kings American Brandy distillery at the Modern Thinkers Social Series, a cultural scientific symposium featuring a follow-up discussion panel with local intellectuals, an astronomy-related local art exhibition, the screening of an original short documentary piece examining Kentucky’s astronomy community, food and beverage features and live music.
