  2. AIAA Greater New Orleans Distinguished Guest Bio • Mr. Tanner is an American instructor at the University of Colorado at Boulder, a former naval aviator, and a former NASA astronaut. He was born in Danville, Illinois. • Tanner flew aboard the Space Shuttle Atlantis on the STS-66, November 3–14, 1994, performing the Atmospheric Laboratory for Applications and Science-3 (ATLAS-3) mission. ATLAS-3 was the third in a series of flights to study the Earth’s atmosphere composition and solar effects at several points during the Sun’s 11-year cycle. Tanner performed two space walks as a member of the STS-82 crew to service the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) in February, 1997. Tanner’s two space walks totaled 14 hours and 01 minutes. Tanner’s third mission was STS-97 aboard Space Shuttle Endeavour (November 30 to December 11, 2000), the fifth Space Shuttle mission dedicated to the assembly of the International Space Station. While docked to the station, the crew installed the first set of U.S. solar arrays, and Tanner performed three space walks during that time. He also participated in assembling the ISS by connecting the P3/4 truss during his fourth mission, STS-115, in September 2006. • Tanner is the recipient of numerous awards including the NASA Exceptional Service Medal, the NASA Stuart M. Present Flight Achievement Award, and Outstanding Alumnus of the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at the University of Illinois. He is also an Eagle Scout.
