CURRENT POSITION
Head, Planetary Magnetospheres Laboratory
Solar System Exploration Division
NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center
EDUCATION:
1971 - B.S, High Honors, (Physics) University of Maryland
1974 - M.S., (Physics) University of Maryland
1978 - Ph.D., (Physics) University of Maryland
RESEARCH AREA EXPERIENCE:
Planetary magnetospheres, ionospheres, thermospheres, exospheres, middle atmosphere electrodynamics, space plasma physics, spacecraft-plasma-atmosphere interactions, global planetary magnetospheric simulation, multiple platform terrestrial and planetary science mission design, synthetic skeletal muscular systems, synthetic neural systems, neural stability, autonomous systems, lunar and Mars dust mitigation
ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
Dr. Curtis has been a Principal Investigator in NASA’s Space Physics Theory Program (Global Magnetospheric Simulations). He has also been a Principal Investigator in JPL’s Remote Experimentation and Exploration Program. He is the GSFC lead for the successful JPL ST-8 phase 1 proposal to demonstrate methods of greatly increasing computational bandwidth in space. He was a Principal Investigator also in the NASA RASC (Revolutionary Aerospace Systems and Concepts) program in which he developed an operational scenario for the application of his ANTS (Autonomous Nano Technology Swarm) concept to an Asteroid Belt exploration mission PAM ( Prospecting Asteroid Mission) using an advanced synthetic neural system. As a result of this research, he has obtained patent submissions for a totally new form of autonomous, undifferentiated space architecture with applications to planetary rovers, landers, and human support and enhancement in space. He had earlier been a Principal Investigator in NASA’s Planetary Atmospheres Program and sat on their advisory committee. He has served as AMPTE Project Scientist and as the U.S. Project Scientist for the Russian ACTIVA mission. He has also served as ISTP Project Scientist for Theory and Ground-based Experiments. During his tenure, he pioneered methods of simulation code intercalibration as well as the successfully implemented concept of mission-oriented theory. He was Project Scientist for the 4 platform Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission, a mission ,which will address fundamental space physics problems on previously inaccessible scales, which he originally conceived. Dr. Curtis was the first to show, working with private industry, that robust 4 platform missions could fit in the MIDEX cost class. This result directly contributed to the start of NASA’s Solar Terrestrial Probe line for which he served as the Study Scientist. He has been the Principal Investigator on two MIDEX proposals and one DISCOVERY proposal , all of which utilized 4 or more platforms and state of the art computational capabilities. He holds a patent for a fully autonomous synthetic neural systems, has developed a psychological instability approach for the development of neural systems, and a method for embedding emotions in artificial intelligence.
Professional Activities: Dr. Curtis is a member of APS, AGU, IEEE,ACM,AIAA, and AAS/DPS. He has served as an Associate Editor of RADIO SCIENCE. He worked with GSFC’s EEO Office to restructure the grants program for Historically Black Colleges an Universities to place it on a competitive basis which resulted in a much better program. He has served on numerous review and advisory programs.
Research Areas: His research interests include the multiscale structure of plasmas and its simulations, planetary atmosphere-plasma interactions, and wave-particle interactions in the planetary plasmas all inn the context of implementing NASA’s strategic plans. He has focused on the multiscale closure between theory and observations. He has played leadership roles on related multiplatform missions. His research on the coupling of autonomy and space structures has resulted in the development of novel refigurable space architecture concepts which are the subjects of patent submissions. His development of a scaling law for planetary magnetic dynamos resulted in the correct prediction that remanent magnetism would be dominant at Mars almost a decade before that was shown to be the case by MGS. He also developed the radio emission theories for Saturn and Uranus. His interest in plasma - dust interactions has resulted in a patent application for a method to remove dust from vehicles on the Moon and Mars.
