About
Amy Felt is a leading aerospace engineer at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, specializing in on-orbit satellite servicing, propellant transfer systems, and in-space assembly technologies. Her primary research focuses on developing the critical fluid transfer subsystems that enable robotic refueling of both heritage and new satellites in orbit—a cornerstone of NASA’s Exploration and In-Space Services (NExIS) Division. Felt’s most influential work, “Satellite Servicing Projects Division Restore-L Propellant Transfer Subsystem Progress 2020,” has garnered 16 citations and details the engineering breakthroughs behind the OSAM-1 (On-orbit Servicing, Assembly and Manufacturing Mission 1) propellant transfer system. Her subsequent paper, “NASA’s Exploration and In-Space Services (NExIS) Division OSAM-1 Propellant Transfer Subsystem Progress Through FY 2024,” documents continued advancements in this transformative technology. Felt’s contributions are vital to extending satellite lifespans, reducing space debris, and enabling sustainable space operations. Her work represents a paradigm shift from disposable spacecraft to a future of orbital maintenance and refueling, positioning her as a key figure in NASA’s mission to revolutionize in-space services.
