I started on a baritone ukulele when I was about 14 years old. There was a short pamphlet showing a few basic chords and some simple tunes. I practiced those chords for hours and showed some talent for the instrument. My parents noticed, so when I asked to graduate to a guitar, we marched off to the Western Auto all-everything store and purchased a “Truetone” Spanish guitar. While this plywood box was technically a guitar (6 steel strings!), what players called the “action”, the playability – particularly the height of the strings – was awful. Just 30 minutes of playing would yield bloody fingertips. I tried to file down the “nut” which held the strings, but to no avail. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1607126660706-CPQWPQUQBZW6IUOO5P5R/edit_NBG+Scott+c.jpg Musician - As an undergraduate at Vanderbilt from 1966-1970, I was engrossed in science as a double major in physics and astronomy. At the same time in history, though, was the Civil Rights Movement, the war in Vietnam; the Space Race and Apollo Program, and then we landed on the moon. Simultaneously, the emergence of Woodstock, and Rock ‘n’ Roll and so forth was all part of the youth movement. This was the complex stew in which I was living in Nashville. https://gscotthubbard.com/home daily 1.0 2026-01-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1608429873681-1MYCM5TSXW6EOSWG45JD/Describing+the+tense+moments+of+the+Return+to+Flight+STS-121+%2828%29.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1607720157476-HL1H5E7FTRO2GW0YH7MX/Scott%2BHubbard_1955.jpg Home In the beginning: The fascination with space exploration came very early to me – at around 9 years old. I read both science and science fiction with equal intensity, developed rocket fuel in my parents’ basement, and observed the stars through the telescope from our backyard. Little could I have predicted my career to come. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1607720355306-W43VR7PUT1KBSZNTAQ4O/Pale+Fire+1973.jpeg Home - From a young age I was fascinated by the possibility of making music. I started on a baritone ukulele when I was about 9 years old and my enthusiasm to practice and perform only grew from there. From my days in Nashville to today, playing the guitar has been a tremendous joy and outlet for creativity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1611957210961-KAXXS98JHW0ULYLZDH92/G.+Scott+Hubbard+on+YouTube.png Home - Explore all the musical roads I’ve ventured - past and present - on my YouTube channel! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1607720948445-O9HYXB6I6TQYZ02UFUHI/SHubbard_Exploring+Mars_CoverArt.jpg Home Award-winning Author: Though I’m proud of having been given the authority and responsibility through the years of leading larger and larger organizations with more people and larger budgets, I think what I did at NASA with the Mars Exploration Program has stood the test of time and produced some extraordinary results. Where it’s headed gives me a lot of satisfaction. https://gscotthubbard.com/books daily 0.75 2025-09-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1605819510752-IVCVFNLYRNMKANPESRY9/cover.png Books - In the wake of the very public failures of the Mars Polar Lander and the Mars Climate Orbiter in 1999, NASA embarked on a complete reassessment of the Mars Program. Scott Hubbard was asked to lead this restructuring in 2000, becoming known as the "Mars Czar." His team's efforts resulted in a very successful decade-long series of missions—each building on the accomplishments of those before it—that adhered to the science adage "follow the water" when debating how to proceed. Now for the first time Scott Hubbard tells the complete story of how he fashioned this program, describing both the technical and political forces involved and bringing to life the national and international cast of characters engaged in this monumental endeavor. “Space-exploration and Mars enthusiasts will find much here to whet their appetites.” —Booklist https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1605844468512-N8W8S5XCHMU376VDWDOW/NewSpaceMag.jpg Books - New Space is the only international peer-reviewed journal dedicated to academic, industry, and government contributions to space entrepreneurship and innovation.

When the first man-made object to orbit the earth went up in 1957, I was just about nine years old. That was a transformative event for the entire world and it’s when I became fascinated with space. My father bought a small telescope and set it up the backyard of our little Elizabethtown, KY home. We watched Mars together. There wasn’t a lot of science happening in Kentucky in the late 1950s. When I got interested in space there was no internet, so you had to go to the local library or haunt the local drugstore paperback racks. Television was still in an early phase - no NOVA or Cosmos. But I began to be what some people would call a “rocket boy.” (A former NASA engineer, named Homer H. Hickam Jr. wrote a book called Rocket Boys, which became the movie October Sky.) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1606169039376-B07APRPNCLXLZB8R76PS/Describing%2Bthe%2Btense%2Bmoments%2Bof%2Bthe%2BReturn%2Bto%2BFlight%2BSTS-121%2B%25282%2529.jpg "Rocket Boy" - I would develop rocket fuel in the basement and launch small rockets in the backyard—much to the dismay of the neighbors—but this was all part of my interest in space, and rocketry, and astronomy. That interest stayed with me and evolved into something that, looking back on it, informed much of my future. In addition to the rockets and looking at Mars through a telescope, I became fascinated with the question of “Is there life elsewhere in the universe?” I remember reading not only tons of science fiction, but a lot of science books by people like George Gamow, Isaac Asimov, and Sir Fred Hoyle, as well as books on astronomy and cosmology. And that idea, that interest in life in the universe, eventually turned into—many, many years later—astrobiology. When I played the role of setting up the NASA Astrobiology Institute, it was sort of that dream or interest when I was nine years old coming to fruition 40 or so years later. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1607129189199-EJARGAMK5HVD7V1AVMU9/SHubbard_Age+24-page-0.jpg "Rocket Boy" - “Rocket Boy” grew into a Rocket College Kid. I was at Vanderbilt University from 1966 through 1970. During the first year every Freshman had to decide on a major and find an adviser. Given my early interest in life in the Universe, I selected biology as a major and went to an interview with a professor. Once I described my interest, he said “Forget it. We don’t do any research in that topic and anyway there aren’t any jobs in biology.” So, with that eye- opening advice, I shifted to a double major in Physics and Astronomy thinking that at least I could learn something about the cosmos. I really enjoyed the astronomy and astrophysics courses, although I was once banned from assisting at the Dyer Observatory “public night” because I had long hair at the time and the Observatory Director could not abide such an appearance! After graduation, from 1970 to 1973 (at least according to my bio) I served as “Research Engineer, Physics Department.” That was true, although somewhere in the footnotes of my bio I usually point out that that was actually only for about a year or so. I got to work on fun projects like the 90-foot pendulum I designed and built, featured in The Tennessean newspaper clipping here. https://gscotthubbard.com/lawrence-berkeley-lab daily 0.75 2021-04-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1607644111320-YING3PEKHA1BI3XQH4UZ/Lawrence+Berkeley+Lab.jpg Lawrence Berkeley Lab Located in the hills above the UC Berkeley campus, the Bay view has always been breathtaking. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1608767431524-FYJTGAAAQONEM6W7SDWD/image.jpg Lawrence Berkeley Lab https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1608767083170-78M5K4TO4YEQB2NWR5XZ/LBNL+Bill%2C+Gene+and+Scott%2Cbw+2.jpeg Lawrence Berkeley Lab https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1607644627632-AFUS9DF57J9OWLK0BPIA/Berkeley+Years+-+charged-particle+telescope-page-1.jpg Lawrence Berkeley Lab https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1608765397711-NH7Q7O7YTROFYXK2ZMYQ/33071_odyssey-chart-update-br.jpg Lawrence Berkeley Lab The Gamma Sensor Head contains a large germanium detector https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1607644936278-KFYD19HCR68J9GSCK1YJ/Berkeley+Years+-+Multimedia+Show.png Lawrence Berkeley Lab This article is from the March 11, 1977 issues of Currents, the biweekly paper of the Lab, on the “Knowledge Through Research” project. https://gscotthubbard.com/canberra-semiconductor daily 0.75 2021-01-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1607661662266-S501DNZ1WW1ZTYEVQ0QM/Describing%252Bthe%252Btense%252Bmoments%252Bof%252Bthe%252BReturn%252Bto%252BFlight%252BSTS-121%252B%2525288%252529.jpg Canberra Semiconductor - My first entrepreneurs business card https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1606248450836-HM2VAMEREISO4RGOMAAI/Running+My+Own+Company+1980-1985 Canberra Semiconductor https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f99dba8583fdb2c290aeaf1/1608769985877-HKCPMV342M4XTKNY7D29/CSI+equipment.jpeg Canberra Semiconductor Some of the equipment we had to develop and test in this startup.
