Hu Peiquan (Ph.D.) In 1944, Hu became a researcher at the Langley Research Center of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA, the predecessor of NASA). Samuel C. Phillips (M.S.) (February 19, 1921 – January 31, 1990) was a United States Air Force general who served as director of NASA's Apollo program from 1964 to 1969, the seventh director of the National Security Agency from 1972 to 1973, and as Commander, Air Force Systems Command from 1973 to 1975. Phil Plait During the 1990s, Plait worked with the COBE satellite and later was part of the Hubble Space Telescope team at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, working largely on the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph. Margaret Hamilton (software engineer) Led a team credited with developing the software for Apollo and Skylab. James Kasting (Ph.D.) is active in NASA's search for habitable extrasolar planets. James Slattin Martin Jr. (B.S.) Martin joined NASA's Langley Research Center in September 1964 as assistant project manager for Lunar Orbiter. The five successful Lunar Orbiter missions provided significant new information about the Moon's surface and a wealth of photographic detail that stood as the definitive source of lunar surface information for years. In recognition of his contribution to this project, Martin was awarded the NASA Exceptional Service Medal in 1967.
