Kevin Hand is an astrobiologist and planetary scientist at JPL .[1] [2]
He is also the founder of Cosmos Education [1] [2] and was its president until 2007.[3]
He was working at NASA Ames when he was inspired to form Cosmos Education in 1999 after getting a grant from the Earth and Space Foundation to tour African schools to talk about how education relates to space research.[4] [5]
Education and career
[ edit ]
Hand studied psychology and physics as an undergraduate at Dartmouth .[6]
He earned a master's degree at Stanford University in mechanical engineering while also working as a public policy research associate at Stanford's Center for International Security and Cooperation (CISAC).[6] [7]
He chose the question of whether Europa 's putative ocean could harbor life as his Geological & Environmental Sciences PhD dissertation topic, under the direction of Christopher Chyba ,[7]
earning the doctorate in 2007.[6]
While a PhD student, he was chosen by James Cameron to take marine biology samples from hydrothermal vents in subsea expeditions to the mid-Atlantic ridge and East Pacific Rise .[7] He was a featured scientist in Cameron's 2005 IMAX documentary, Aliens of the Deep .[8]
At a 2014 NASA panel discussion, Hand predicted that extraterrestrial life would be found within 20 years.[9] [10]
Hand published the book Alien Oceans in 2020.[11]
