Wow, great explanation and write-up!
Disclaimer: The program offered in school has a specialization in Astronautics.
Quick reply, my attempt at writing up a top 3:
Learning: I grew up watching and learning about as many subjects as I could discover. Some of my favorites that I stumbled upon involved NASA and space.
Thinkering: I would try to take things apart so as to tinker and rebuild. I failed, but I keep trying while also making use of parts to create something new.
Future: Watching Cosmos and similar programs encouraged me to try to be involved with getting humans to explore and land on other planets. This made me interested in joining amateur clubs and organizations so as to meet like-minded people.
