SEATTLE – Where were you on the night of August 5, 2012? At this time the Curiosity Rover was landing on Mars.
NASA’s Adam Steltzner was in charge of the landing, and he described his experiences at the ASQ World Conference. A new “sky crane” technology was used to land the rover, which was about the size of a small car. In addition to providing beautiful images of Mars, he also offered practical advice about how to get along better with coworkers. (“Find something to love about each of them.”)
