A Touchscreen for Mars
• Five years before touchscreens were popular - A touchscreen for Mars Rover Operations
• The technology was later used for Ocean Research, next gen rover field tests and Space Station

• User tools for Planetary Data Archive and Search
• User Interfaces for Solar System Geometry - Interplanetary geometry for the rest of us
• Planetary Image Search in collaboration with Google
Impact on the Organization
•User Centered Design goes from obscurity to mainstream practice
