珍妮猎人 has professional experience with spacecraft, aircraft and rotorcraft.

In 1976 she joined NASA Johnson Space Center as a Space Shuttle crew systems intern before the first Shuttle launch in 1981. To train Shuttle astronauts for the unusually steep re-entry glidepath, she developed software for the Shuttle Training Aircraft (STA), a modified Grumman Gulfstream II. Test Drive: Shuttle Training Aircraft Preps Astronauts for Landing

At NASA Ames, she researched and tested V/STOL autopilot and head-up display concepts. For the motion-based simulation effort she derived the ten degree-of-freedom nonlinear equations of motion of a helicopter carrying an externally suspended load (e.g.、火 阻燃).

At TRW, she carried out analysis of aerospace vehicle flight test results using system identification algorithms and Kalman filter trajectory reconstruction techniques. In 1988, she became lead of the Guidance, Navigation and Control Section.

In 1989 she joined the newly formed 菠菜网lol正规平台 航空航天工程 Department. 她 and taught classes in dynamics, control, design and experimental methods. In 1994, the students in her spacecraft design class led the development and construction of Spartnik, an uncontrolled octagonal nanosatellite whose payloads were a gamma ray detector and a digital camera. Her graduate students built and tested a VHF antenna located on the roof of the engineering building and demonstrated the estimation of spacecraft orbital elements from Doppler recovered from the downlink signal.

In 2014, she introduced an undergraduate course in vector-based dynamics (AE138) based on the ground-breaking work of Dr. Thomas 凯恩 of Stanford University. 她是其中的一部分 of a vector dynamics working group including Dr. Paul Mitiguy (Stanford University) 博士和. Burford Furman (菠菜网lol正规平台 Mechanical 工程). The working group’s objective is to encourage and enable much-needed improvements in dynamics education for all 工程专业的学生.

Using vector-based particle dynamics she developed undergraduate and graduate courses 在天体动力学. In a field that often uses a collection of scalar equations, the vector approach provides clarity and give students confidence in their ability to 推导运动方程.

She is also a private pilot.
