Sigrid Close
Sigrid Close is a professor in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at Stanford University.〔(Stanford Engineering Faculty Profile - Sigrid Close )〕 Her primary research interest is the space environment with particular focus on meteoroids, meteors, and orbital debris, and their interaction with spacecraft and spacecraft operations.
Professor Close's research involves space weather detection and modeling for improved spacecraft designs, and advanced signal processing and electromagnetic wave interactions with plasma for ground-to-satellite communication systems. These topics fall under the Space Situational Awareness (SSA) umbrella that include environmental remote sensing using satellite systems and ground-based radar. Her current efforts are the MEDUSSA (Meteoroid, Energetics, and Debris Understanding for Space Situational Awareness) program, TALIS (Tomographic Array for Lightning and Ionospheric Studies) using ground-based and space-based RF sensors, and using ground-based radar data to characterize the meteoroid population and its threat to spacecraft. She was a member of two NRC panels, in 2010 examining options for detecting and countering near-Earth objects,〔(National Academies - Report Examines Options for Detecting and Countering Near-Earth Objects )〕 and in 2011 assessing NASA's meteoroid and orbital debris programs.〔(National Academies - NASA Needs Strategic Plan to Manage Orbital Debris Efforts; Risks Increasing for Satellites, Space Station )〕
In 2011, Professor Close co-hosted season three of National Geographic Channel's ''Known Universe'' documentary series along with David E. Kaplan, Andy Howell, Michael J. Massimino, and Steve Jacobs.〔( IMDB - Known Universe (TV Series 2009– ) )〕 In 2010, she won an NSF Career Award〔(Stanford Engineering - Closing in on a mystery that impedes space exploration )〕 and a Hellman Faculty Fellowship award〔(Hellman Fellows >> Sigrid Close )〕 for her meteor research. In 2013 she was selected for a DoE Early Career Award〔(Early Career Research Program - U.S. DOE Office of Science )〕 for her work on hypervelocity impact plasmas, and also awarded a Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers.〔(President Obama Honors Outstanding Early-Career Scientists )〕 Professor Close was the inaugural Science Guest of Honor at the ArmadilloCon science fiction and fantasy literary convention in 2014.〔(ArmadilloCon36 - Guests )〕
