Dr. Bob Breault, Ph.D., looks like a normal person. He is not. Bob started out as a fighter pilot in the Vietnam War. He left the Air Force and after getting a Ph.D. in space optics at the University of Arizona and became one of the world’s leading experts in the invention and operation of software for space telescopes, from the Hubble to the Giant Magellan. This session will be moderated by one of his fighter pilot buddies, Maj. Gen. USAF (Ret.) Don Shepperd. Both are part of a Tucson lunch group called “The Friday Pilots,” a group of pilots who flew the old airplanes in the old Air Force. The session will be conducted as an interview, with the moderator asking Bob questions and probing for answers. They will address some of the history of space research and about what really happened, and Bob’s answers should be fun to hear! Bob has been exposing the Friday Pilots on some of the latest findings in space research. Dr. Breault has spent most of his life since 1954 penetrating the unknowns of the origin of the universe with the pioneers in the field. Much of it did not evolve as it is recorded.
