Kimberly K. Arcand

Kim was working in molecular biology and public health when she was hired for the Chandra X-ray Observatory in 1998. Since she wanted to be an astronaut when she was little, this opportunity got Kim close to the cosmos but without the long distance commute. Today, Kim uses data to help tell stories about science, whether in the form of a 3D print of an exploded star, a book about the electromagnetic spectrum, or a virtual reality application of a spacecraft system.
