scientist, technologist, educator, policy
advisor, author, and Hollywood filmmaker. He
is the chief executive officer and co-founder
of Beyond Imagination, a company that has
developed a suit of exponential technology
solutions that deploys AI, AR, robotics, machine
learning, and human-computer interaction
technology to enhance and revolutionize
the world's workforce. In 2021 Beyond completed BEOMNI 1.0,
the world's first fully functional humanoid robotic system with an AI
evolving brain, possessing a humanlike waist, head, shoulders, arms, and
hands with opposable thumbs, enabling remote work at a high level of
fidelity from around the globe. Beyond has signed a memorandum of
understanding with Axiom Space and Intuitive Machines to provide
space-hardened versions of Beomni for construction of the first Moon
base and the next NASA space station. Kloor was named the ABC
World News' Person of the Week in 1994. He has worked as advisor
for NASA, the U.S. Senate, JPL, and many other science organizations.
J. (Bob) Balaram has been associated
with NASA for 20 years and was chief engineer
for the Mars Helicopter Ingenuity,
currently operating on Mars as part of the
Perseverance rover missions. Ingenuity is a
technology demonstrator designed to prove
controlled powered aerial flight for the
first time on a planet besides Earth. Previously,
Balaram researched precision landing
methods for Mars as well as advanced simulation techniques for
planetary entry, descent, and landing (EDL). He led the team that
developed a high-fidelity EDL simulator adopted for use by the
Curiosity and Perseverance missions and was the co-developer
of a planetary rover simulator. Balaram led design teams for developing
Mars aerobot (aerial robot) perception systems, a deepdiving
Venus balloon gondola concept, and balloon-carried imaging
sondes for deployment on Venus. He also co-developed the
Rocky-7 rover platform, a prototype and precursor to the Spirit
and Opportunity Mars rovers.

Caribbean. He has won a National Magazine Award for Reporting,
been a finalist in the same category, and has won a Grand Neal
Award, among other honors. An IEEE Fellow, he holds a bachelor's
degree in electrical engineering from Brown University.
IEEE Spectrum is the flagship magazine and website of the
IEEE, the world's largest professional organization devoted to engineering
and the applied sciences. IEEE is the trusted " voice " for
engineering, computing, and technology information around the
globe. Susan Hassler is the editor-in-chief.
Soyeon Yi is South Korea's fi rst and only
astronaut, selected in December 2006 out
of 36,000 contestants vying for the title. On
8 April 2008, she launched into space on
board Soyuz TMA-12. During her 11-day
mission at the International Space Station
(ISS), Yi completed an aggressive number of
experiments contributing to South Korea's
science textbooks and television. On 19
April 2008, she survived a force of nearly 16 g (versus 4-g average)
upon the ballistic reentry. Due to complications, the fi rst to
welcome her return to Earth were nomads in the plains of Kazakhstan.
Currently Yi is managing director for business development
and partnership at Noul Co., Ltd., a biotechnology startup.
Yi is passionate about nurturing the next generation of leaders in
STEM; she is not only volunteering for various nonprofi ts as an
