Biography
Joshua Miller is a University of Texas at El Paso faculty member supporting the Hypervelocity Impact Technology group at the Johnson Space Center through Jacobs. Joshua’s work supports the analysis of impact events through analytical methods and numerical simulation. The work supports NASA’s strategic goal to expand knowledge and capabilities in space and directly contributes to the protection of life and science currently on-board the International Space Station, the Space Launch System, Orion, and the Gateway platform.
