Space Environment Effects (SEE)

Space Environment Effects is study of how the environment of space effects spacecraft payloads and systems.  A brief overview video is available here.

Alan’s SEE Resume

Alan Tribble conducted SEE analysis for dozens of spacecraft as an employee of Rockwell International’s, (now Boeing’s), Space Systems Division. He was also a Principal Investigator for the NASA Space Environment and Effects program, an Associate Editor of the AIAA Journal of Spacecraft and Rockets, in addition to an author and teacher on SEE. Alan is also the 2008 winner of the AIAA James A. Van Allen award.
