#KinetXFeatureFriday Meet John Pelgrift, he has worked on #OpNav and #OrbitDetermination for #OSIRISREx. He works on operational data processing, OpNav planning, and software development. Before joining KinetX, he got his Master’s from @USC and Bachelor’s from @CalPoly. 
His favorite memories were seeing the particles being ejected from @101955Bennu’s surface and when the sample was finally stored safely in the capsule of the spacecraft.
He says the best part of the project is getting to work with world-class engineers and scientists on an incredible project that has pushed the boundaries of spaceflight and human exploration.
As the spacecraft cruises back to Earth to return the sample, John’s pick for @NASASolarSystem’s “cruising” playlist is Closing Time by Semisonic
