In his career, Mr. McCollum has worked on the precursor to the Space Shuttle Main Engine, a nuclear valve to replace the one that failed at Three Mile Island, several guided missiles, the International Space Station, and virtually every aircraft in production today.

In addition to his engineering, Mr. McCollum is a successful professional writer in the field of science fiction.

His novel, Thunderstrike!, was optioned by a Hollywood production company for a possible movie. His other books include The Clouds of Saturn and The Sails of Tau Ceti.

Elizabeth is a graduate of Northern Arizona University and married to Brock. They live in Washington, D.C.
