Bangalore: Sunita Williams has great passion towards her profession and she considers going to the moon to be a dream; but later on, sometime in the future she wants to be a school teacher, reports PTI.

"We are potentially building a new spacecraft. I would love to be a part of that. Building a new vehicle is always benefited by people who have experience.

"All this is in the short term. But eventually, when I grow up, I would like to be a school teacher, a science school teacher," said Williams who was attending an interactive session with students in Mumbai.

"But I think talking about space with as many people as possible and relaying my experiences is my main mission for a while," she said.

"For me, it would be a dream to go back to the moon. It would be awesome to go to Mars, but I have a feeling that in my life as a professional astronaut, that might not happen," she said.
