معرفی
Alan Hildebrand is an Associate Professor at the University of Calgary's Department of Earth, Energy, and Environment. His planetary science research focuses on meteorite analysis, impact crater formation, and asteroid studies, with active involvement in NASA's OSIRIS-REx mission to asteroid Bennu. Recognized as a Fellow of the Meteoritical Society (2010), his work examines extraterrestrial material properties and impact processes.
Recent investigations include seismic velocity measurements of meteorites, analysis of Bennu sample integrity during spacecraft retrieval, and characterization of significant meteorite falls. Hildebrand employs geophysical methods to study impact crater structures and extraterrestrial materials, contributing to understanding solar system formation and planetary surface evolution.
