Book Megan McArthur
Megan McArthur is an oceanographer and engineer who flew two NASA missions fourteen years apart: the final servicing mission to the Hubble Space Telescope and a long-duration stay aboard the International Space Station. She earned a bachelor's degree in aerospace engineering at UCLA in 1993 and a Ph.D. in oceanography from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in 2002, where her research covered underwater acoustics in shallow water and she served as chief scientist and dive leader on field operations. Selected as an astronaut, she worked as a capsule communicator in Mission Control for both shuttle and station flights. On STS-125 in 2009 she was the flight engineer for launch and landing and the lead robotic arm operator, using the shuttle's arm to grab Hubble so spacewalkers could upgrade it, making her the last person to handle the telescope. She became Deputy Chief of the Astronaut Office in 2019 and launched in 2021 as pilot of Crew Dragon Endeavour on SpaceX Crew-2, serving on Expeditions 65 and 66. She retired from NASA in August 2025 after a career that bridged ocean science and spaceflight.
