A Day In My Life At NASA
On days like today, I marvel as I reflect all the awesome things I get to do in my role here at the NASA Safety Center.
Today I…
π Hosted a “bug hunt” for the new app we launched last month, having the whole development team try to break the app to catch bugs before they become an issue.
π Spoke with someone from the Human Landing System program about their interest in using a fishbone (Ishikawa) diagram to identify what could cause the lunar lander to tip over during landing. This is a problem that has plagued recent commercial lunar landings, and we are looking to support these use cases in our new app.
π₯ Ate a fantastic salad with my team at the cafΓ© in the new Research Support Building at NASA Glenn Research Center
π€ΉββοΈ Consulted with a co-worker about how we could use Microsoft Delve to surface Reliability Engineers in the agency with unique skills that could be shared with others in that discipline.
π Reviewed the Science Mission Directorate’s system for tracking risks to inform how our team will build an agency-level tool that surfaces elevated risks from the mission directorates.
π¬ Demoed our API for mishap data to a group building a Digital Twin of NASA facilities. Mishap data could be layered with information we have on aging infrastructure to build a compelling case for which areas of NASA’s infrastructure are in the most need of attention.
And that all is just the tip of the iceberg! Looking forward to tomorrow!
