Spotlight on a Postdoc: Meet Dr. Rosalyn Devonport
Most days for Rosalyn Devonport are spent in her office working advanced and abstract math problems, throw in some computer programming, and if she's having a really stimulating day, coffee with a friend is one of her first stopping points; you'd be surprised by how much advanced math is done over a freshly brewed cup of coffee.
While Devonport's day-to-day seems routine, the 30-year-old is a University of New Mexico postdoctoral fellow working to discover what it takes for a spacecraft to obtain "orbital homeostasis."
