Not surprisingly, the announcement drew the attention of the «Guardian of the Galaxy» — a brave nine-year-old student from new Jersey. He wrote NASA a real paper letter (which is in itself unusual in a time when children are treated with the shower technique, than with their own shoelaces) to Express their interest in the vacancy the employee for planetary protection in space Agency.

Green says that NASA like to tell the children something new about the space, thereby inspiring them to become the next generation of researchers.

In addition, the boy had the opportunity to talk on the phone with the Director of the Department of the study of the planets, Jonathan Rahl from the headquarters of NASA in Washington, who thanked the boy for his interest in such a responsible position.
Although the work of the protector of Earth in real life is different from what people far from the space sphere, imagine it plays an important role in responsible exploration of the Solar system. The main task of the officer to prevent the ingress of bacteria from Earth to other planets and Vice versa — extraterrestrial microorganisms on Earth. Before you hold such an important post, Jack needs to grow up a bit.
