NASA has a brand new signing. He is from Linares (Jaén) and is only 22 years old. Aerospace engineer Juan García packs his bags for the United States to carry out software that simulates space missions. The young man has begun to develop his work at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, in the United States, a center specialized in space robotics at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and financed by the Agency.
About 6,000 people work at the center where Juan García goes. The North American Space Agency designs and controls robotic ships that explore the solar system or rovers (space exploration vehicles) such as Curiosity and Perseverance. Juan is a young man with high and precocious abilities.
At just 16 years old, he began his studies, graduating in Aerospace Engineering from the Carlos III University of Madrid. During her academic training she obtained a scholarship to study for a year at the Georgia Institute of Technology and obtained a perfect average grade of 4 points.
An early and brilliant academic life
Juan García became a STEM Ambassador in 2021, was named president of the Cultural Committee of the International House and joined the Sigma Gamma Tau society for Aerospace Excellence. It was in his last year of bachelor’s degree, thanks to his academic merits, he obtained a scholarship to carry out research on gravitational models of small bodies and trajectory optimization in the Department of Aerospace Engineering of his university.
The president of the Junta de Andalucía, Juanma Moreno, wanted to congratulate the young engineer: “Linares, Jaén and Andalusia are proud of you.” “This young aerospace engineer from Linares is fulfilling a dream thanks to his ability, his daily effort and dedication, and the passion that he has put into him since he was little,” Moreno Bonilla wrote online. He is happy that “Andalusian talent triumphs and is an example in the world.”
