You might know that the NASA PUNCH mission is designed to study the Sun, but who are the people that make it all happen? Hundreds of people work together to make a space science mission successful. Get to know some of our team here!

To create these cards we asked our teammates about their role on the mission. These roles are divided into four categories. Click on the icons below to see who is in each category.

We also asked our teammates to “choose an animal that reflects an aspect of their personality or behavior that they feel is especially important for doing their PUNCH mission work.” Click on the icons below to see who chose these animals.

Mission Management Team: Oversees and guides all aspects of PUNCH to ensure mission success.
Mission Development Team: Supports the mission, including design and development of the four PUNCH spacecraft and their components.
Science Team: Conducts and coordinates scientific research that uses PUNCH data to learn new things about the Sun's corona and heliosphere.
Outreach Team: Collaborates with the whole PUNCH team to create products and events that inspire diverse people to learn about NASA science.
