Or else, they knew it and just played along for me. Either way, it was an amazing experience. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cc8359694d71aaddc11d1c3/1585511173235-QTSI4592NF8XQ6UD0Z3P/Me+and+Dean+Eppler.jpg Space - Testing Space Suits Me and Dean Eppler, spacesuit test subject extraordinaire. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cc8359694d71aaddc11d1c3/1585511349333-NXJ3DN4A10V9R5YQG484/ACES+in+NBL+%28me%29.jpg Space - Shuttle Egress Training Core to every crew survival engineer’s training: understanding survival scenarios and equipment capability. Shuttle egress training in the NBL. They drop you from a crane to simulate bailout and drag you across the water and you have to disconnect your parachute risers to simulate a parachute caught in the wind. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cc8359694d71aaddc11d1c3/1585511562464-TYRBTR5R20ACN5RDCQS4/Shuttle+egress+training+on+pad.jpg Space - Pad Egress Training Shuttle pad abort training, probably my most fitting contribution to the space program. I was literally "dead weight" for closeout crew teams to practice pulling disabled crewmembers out of a Space Shuttle orbiter while on the launchpad. I'm very good at playing dead weight, if I do say so myself. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cc8359694d71aaddc11d1c3/1585511729178-QSBXYDJBSDU5WPBREZ32/MUCU.jpeg Space - Multiple User Cooling Unit MUCU!!! My first NASA acronym. This was my first NASA project, actually: a Multiple User Cooling Unit which supplied cold water to an entire Shuttle crew during ground training or other non-flight ops. Here is the finished MUCU installed in the Astrovan which is used to take astronauts out to the launch pad. I don’t recall the inaugural drive, but I believe all crews starting with STS-120 received their little jolt of cooling via the MUCU, likely while gazing out the windows across the flat marshlands of the Cape during the 20-minute ride to the pad. Note: if you Google “NASA MUCU,” most of the links will be for “NASA mucus,” also an interesting topic, but not one for which I made any significant contribution. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cc8359694d71aaddc11d1c3/1585512230726-03CJ84ZUNHOZKU3YZA3W/Astrovan_at_KSC_LC-39A.jpg Space - Astronaut Transfer Van By the way, this is the Astrovan, or Astronaut Transfer Van, technically. It’s a modified 1983 Airstream Excella motorhome that was used to take astronauts to the launch pad from the operations and checkout building. All crews from STS-9 to STS-135, the final flight of the program, used this as their last terrestrial vehicle ride prior to sitting atop nearly 8 million pounds of thrust and accelerating to 17,500 mph in about 8.5 minutes. A total of 355 men and women flew on the Space Shuttle throughout the program’s history. What thoughts went through their minds during this last earthly leg of the journey? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cc8359694d71aaddc11d1c3/1585512720944-NER83EKK7NGISPJ3RP1C/NBL+01.JPG Space - Diving in the NBL One of the most extraordinary experiences I’ve ever had the privilege of doing: diving in the Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory (NBL).

This is astronaut Rex Walheim and me measuring the clearance of a payload in the Space Shuttle's cargo bay, several months in advance of his flight to the International Space Station on STS-122. Sometimes, while working at the NBL, astronauts would request a “buddy diver” to help them visualize something using the mockups and neutral buoyancy of the 6-million gallon NBL to get as close to the real thing as possible, while staying on Earth. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cc8359694d71aaddc11d1c3/1585513502211-VRASDTOGWJXYOJ86ICNA/Bioculture+system.jpg Space - Bioculture System Take a cell biology lab, design it to be operated remotely, miniaturize everything in it - incubator, refrigeration, oxygenation, bioreactors - then test and certify it to survive the rigors of spaceflight, then launch experiments to better understand what happens to cells in micro-gravity.

Since we can’t (yet) build telescopes that big, we rely on linking existing telescopes together and using imaging algorithms and the rotation of the Earth to create an instrument with enough capability to “see” a black hole. As the Project Engineer for the next generation Event Horizon Telescope, I lead the engineering team to expand and upgrade the array. Our next goal: black hole cinema! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cc8359694d71aaddc11d1c3/4060941b-910d-4628-8402-96b376d8716f/IMG_6753.jpg Space - Teide Observatory, Canary Islands As part of the next generation Event Horizon Telescope program, we’re building new radio telescopes on mountaintops all over the world. Here I am at our first site, at the Teide Observatory in the Canary Islands. Mt. Teide, in the background, is the third highest volcano in the world when measured from the ocean floor. It’s also the highest point in Spain.
