Jay Apt
Four flights, and later a professor of engineering and public policy.
Jerome "Jay" Apt III is a retired NASA astronaut and professor at Carnegie Mellon University. During his time at NASA, Apt was a flight controller in the Mission Control Center and completed four space flights logging over 35 days in space. Before becoming an astronaut, Apt was a physicist who worked on the Pioneer Venus 1978 space probe project, and used visible light and infrared techniques to study the planets and moons of the Solar System from ground-based observatories. Apt is an instrument-rated commercial pilot, and has logged over 7,000 hours flying time in approximately 25 different types of airplanes, seaplanes, sailplanes, and human-powered aircraft.
