Biography: Dr. Owen is a member of JPLâs Optical Navigation Group since 1979. He has navigated missions from Voyager and Galileo through NEAR Shoemaker, Cassini and Deep Impact to EPOXI and Stardust/NExT when he was not busy obtaining his own astrometric observations of âanything up there that moves.â He holds a B.S. from Caltech, M.S. and Ph.D. from the University of Florida, all in astronomy, and likes to say that he has one leg on either side of the razor blade which divides science from engineering.
