While at The University of Kentucky, he worked for five years in NASA-sponsored research on the effects of space flight at the Wenner Gren Research Lab. That experience led to a four-year career in the U.S. Air Force, where he worked on the Manned Orbiting Laboratory project.

He authored over 50 technical papers and publications.
