Current Duties and Responsibilities
Design, develop and use software for simulating atmospheric entry by spacecraft including the thermal protection material response due to atmospheric heating. My software was used in the design of the Mars Exploration Rover (MER) aeroshell and was referenced in the MER CDR report. My software also played a role in the development of many NASA interplanetary spacecraft, e.g. Stardust, SAGE, Kitty Hawk II, JIMO, etc.

Welcome to the Citizendium! We hope you will contribute boldly and well. Here are pointers for a quick start, and see Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, our help system and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forum is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any user or the editors for help, too. Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun! --Ruth Ifcher 23:29, 11 March 2007 (CDT)
