Ground-breaking Research With Materials Development Scientist Douglas Hofmann

Materials development scientist Douglas Hofmann will share his STEM journey that led him to NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California. Find out what it’s like to develop new materials that are used for rockets and spacecraft.

“NASA STEM Stars” is a webchat series that connects students with subject matter experts to learn about STEM careers and ask questions about STEM topics.


We’re launching STEM Engagement to new heights with learning resources that connect teachers, students, parents, and caregivers to the inspiring work NASA is doing. Join us as we apply science, technology, engineering, and mathematics to explore space, improve aeronautics, examine Earth, and strive to land the first woman and first person of color on the Moon with the Artemis program.
