个人简介
Thomas E. Williams retired from NASA in 1998 after 30 years of service at the Goddard Space Flight Center. He began his career in aerospace in 1960 upon joining the Martin Company in Baltimore as a Co-Op student at Drexel University. After graduating with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering in 1965, he joined the systems engineering group on the Gemini Program at Martin where he worked data analysis and anomaly resolution on several astronaut missions. In 1968, Mr. Williams Joined NASA as a member of the Propulsion Branch at GSFC. He spent eight years on various aspects of research and development of electric propulsion systems including ion engines and pulsed-plasma technologies. During this time, he also had the opportunity to work with the Technology Utilization Office at GSFC on evaluating public technology requirements and determining how NASA technologies might be applied. He was fortunate to be able to work with the National Institutes of Health on an R&D project to design and develop equipment and methods for freezing bone marrow. This research led to the transplantation of bone marrow into humans afflicted with leukemia. He worked directly with the doctors and staff at NIH and Johns Hopkins Hospital to carry out the necessary research to enable this transfer of NASA technology to the medical community. He was fortunate to receive a patent on the freezing system/method that he specifically developed for this purpose. Through his independent consulting work, he has made some meaningful contributions in other areas of the medical field as well as home heating system R&D. In 1976, Mr. Williams joined the Tracking & Data Relay Project as the TDRS propulsion engineer. Between 1978 and 1981, he worked in the NASA residence office at the contractor's facility (TRW) in Redondo Beach, CA. Residency at the manufacturer's plant offered a wide range of experiences in manufacturing operations; process control; quality control; spacecraft integration; system test; development & management; risk assessment; cost analysis; and project management. He followed the development of seven spacecraft from the design phase through launch, checkout, and on-orbit operations. During his 17 years on this program, he was promoted to I & T Manager, Systems Manager, and later to Deputy Project Manager.
