Alexander Blum is a senior at Marquette University (@marquetteu) studying electrical engineering. Alex is working in the Power Systems Branch at NASA’s Johnson Space Center where he works on the power supply used to power the space suits when they are in the International Space Station’s (@ISS) airlock. He also assists with the project’s radiation testing and does research on power transmission limits in common cables, such as USBs, to understand their exact limits to avoid molten metal being generated and exposed to the crew on the ISS. “Working at Johnson Space Center is such a special experience. It is such a privilege to work with so many people that really love what they do and the energy they bring to work every day is infectious.” – Alex
