Shawn D. Domagal-Goldman is a research space scientist[1] at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center,[2] who specializes in exoplanets, Archean geochemistry, planetary atmospheres, and astrobiology.[3]

Education and career[edit]

Domagal-Goldman has a master's degree in Earth Sciences from the University of Rochester[4] and a PhD in Geosciences and Astrobiology[5] from the Pennsylvania State University.[4]

Domagal-Goldman helped organize FameLab events in the US. He also talks about NASA science in public forums,[4] such as AwesomeCon.[6]

He is a recipient of the 2019 Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers.[7]

Research[edit]

For his research into "the early Earth and other terrestrial planets, he works on utilizing isotopic trends as proxies for atmospheric processes and elemental cycling", which "includes work on the fundamental controls on iron isotope fractionation and on global controls on mass-independent Sulfur isotope fractionation (S-MIF)".[4] For extrasolar planets, he works on "spectroscopy-based characterization techniques" that inform scientists about "a planet’s surface climate, habitability, and ecosystems".[4]

His research experience includes:

  1. July 2007–present, Atmospheric Modeler, NASA Astrobiology Institute · Virtual Planetary Laboratory[5]
  2. July 2010–July 2012, NASA Astrobiology Management Postdoctoral Fellow, Oak Ridge Associated Universities, NASA Headquarters[4][8]
  3. July 2008–July 2010, Research Associate, University of Washington Seattle · Department of Astronomy[5]
  4. Research Associate at Penn State[4]

Personal life[edit]

Domagal-Goldman has a daughter, her name is Maya.[4]
