NASA physicist Edward J. Wollack is among those inducted into the NASA Inventors Hall of Fame this year.
Underlying those patents, he said Goddard’s Internal Research and Development, or IRAD program, enabled preliminary work on hundreds of technologies Wollack either led or participated in. Those investigations often earned NASA agency-level innovation funding to fully develop their strategic technologies.
He used his experience building amplifiers for the WMAP mission – launched in 2001 – to develop superconducting detectors that provide higher sensitivity and resolution. These detectors could help reveal more about the oldest light in the universe, the background of microwaves that shows the universe as it was just 380,000 years after the big bang.
This network consists of scientists, engineers, and academic partners who enjoy finding solutions to big problems, he said, and they are adept at recognizing barriers, redirecting as needed, and keeping their eye on the big picture.
