Profile
Dr. Daniel Engelhart, Research Scientist, Hedgefog Research Inc., has extensive experience in remote sensing physics, space weather modeling and simulation, space domain awareness, spectroscopic identification of resident space objects, planetary defense, and radiation-material interactions. He has been primary investigator on several projects involving development of laboratory-based radiation sources, in-situ material characterization, and experiments deployed on the International Space Station. While working in the in the Spacecraft Charging and Instrument Calibration Laboratory in the US Air Force Research Laboratory Space Vehicle Directorate (now Space Force), he also investigated on-orbit arcing of satellites detected using radio astronomy, spacecraft anomaly resolution, and performed evaluation of the arcing behavior of novel photovoltaic architectures, including the Roll Out Solar Array, under worst-case space weather conditions. He received his B.A. in Chemistry and German from the University of South Dakota, his M.S. in Chemistry from the University of California, Santa Barbara, and performed his PhD research (physical chemistry) at the Fritz-Haber Institute and the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry.
