You don't know Jennifer Herman's name, but you should. She became the lead power subsystem engineer for the Spirit and Opportunity rovers. Her tireless work for months on end is, more than anything else, the reason why our twin girls survived the deadly 2007 Martian dust storms.
And now she's the lead power subsystem engineer for Voyager. In the same quiet, dedicated way, she's the one making the tough calls that'll help keep *them* alive for years to come.
