Does anyone know currently any of the engineers or scientists who worked directly on the Pioneer Venus Orbiter? Are they all dead or retired now? I have a specific yet simple question about how the pin puller latch locks cabling was attached or ran along the magnetometer boom. Ideally this person would have to have seen the real pioneer orbiter to answer the question.
All nasa pdfs info and photos I have found are inconclusive. I would prefer an expert as oppossed to lots of guesses. It would be easy question for them since they would have seen the real orbiter. thanks |

Does anyone know currently any of the engineers or scientists who worked directly on the Pioneer Venus Orbiter? Bernie Bienstock (now at JPL, still active) worked on Pioneer Venus (at least on the probes, not sure about the orbiter) - would be worth asking him. He'll be at the International Planetary Probe Workshop in San Jose in a couple of weeks if that is relevant. |
