董亚雪出生于中国西南部四川省成都，30岁的她现在是美国国家航空航天局马文号（火星大气与挥发演化）研究团队的成员。

On Nov 5, Dong was invited to speak at a NASA news conference, in which the organization said the atmosphere on Mars can be stripped by solar winds. She is the first Chinese female scientist to participate in a NASA news conference.

11月5号，董亚雪被邀请在美国国家航空航天局新闻发布会发言，美国国家航空航天局表示火星大气层在太阳风下的作用下逐渐逃逸。她是中国首位出席美国国家航空航天局的女科学家。

Dong graduated from Chengdu’s Shishi High School in 2003 and was later admitted by University of Science and Technology of China. She got her master’s and doctor’s degree in astrophysics from Rice University in the United States.

董亚雪2003年毕业于成都石室中学，随后考入中国科学技术大学。并于美国莱斯大学获得天体物理学硕士与博士学位。

Last year, Dong joined the Laboratory for Atmospherics and Space Physics (LASP) at the University of Colorado and began working for MAVEN after handing in her resume and taking part in a phone interview. Now her main job is to analyze satellite data and compare the results to theoretical predictions.

去年，董亚雪加入了美国科罗拉多大学大气与空间物理实验室，通过投简历和电话面试之后，她开始了马文号的工作。现在她主要的工作是分析卫星数据并和理论预测进行比较。

"The findings released during the news conference are very important and may change the content of school textbooks," Dong told the Chengdu Business Daily.
