Michelle Amos Electronics
Engineer / Kennedy Space Center - Michelle is a Hardware Design
Engineer for NITEX-34. NITEX stands for NASA IVHM Technology Experiment
for X-vehicles. The NITEX-34 experiment is designed to demonstate
an advanced health monitoring system for the X-34 Vehicle. The system
will detect both functional failures that can impact the current
mission as well as future missions. The experiment extracts sensor
and command data from the Real-time Flight Unit on the X-34 during
flight and from the Real-time Ground Unit when the X-34 is not operational.
My current assignment is to design and document the Ground Station
Unit where the Real-time Ground Unit will be located.

Patty Currier
Payload Scientist / Kennedy Space Center - I work with scientists
from colleges and universities around the world to help them fly
biology experiments aboard the space shuttle. I help them analyze
what they want to do and figure out ways to do it. If I am lucky,
the scientist already has some idea, but most of the time, we are
starting from ground zero. I like that too--I love puzzles.
