Professor Majdalani wins the 2014
Konrad Dannenberg Educator of the Year
Award. This Greater Huntsville Section Award
recognizes a Section member for outstanding service to
education and promotion of math and science within the
community. The award is named in recognition of
Konrad Dannenberg, a German-American rocket
pioneer who was an avid proponent of education, an active
member of the AIAA, and an inspiration to the aerospace
community. In 1960, Dannenberg joined NASA's newly
established Marshall Space Flight Center as Deputy Manager
of the Saturn program. He received the NASA Exceptional
Service Medal in 1973 for successfully initiating
development of the largest rocket ever built, the Saturn V,
which took the first human beings to the moon. When Arthur
Rudolph came back from the army's development of the
Pershing missile system, Braun assigned the management of
the Saturn system to him. Dannenberg then started to work on
Saturn-based space stations, which were eventually replaced
by the Space Shuttle-based ISS. Dannenberg retired from the
Marshall Space Flight Center in 1973 and became an Associate
Professor of Aerospace Engineering at the University of
Tennessee Space Institute (UTSI) in Tullahoma, Tennessee –
