Brian Shiro is a Paragould native whose extensive accomplishments include working for NASA, NOAA, and is currently the Deputy Director of United States Geological Survey Geological Hazards Science Center. If that sounds like a mouthful, no worries as Brian helps us understand how his study of earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanos are important to the future of Mars exploration. 

Twice Brian has been classified as highly qualified to become an astronaut and a project he worked on years ago was used in the Mars InSight mission that recently completed its mission. We also talked running and how he became an Eagle Scout!
