Prof. John Zarnecki

(Professor of Space Science and President Elect of the Royal Astronomical Society):

“In over 35 years of space research, Mark is one of the best Project Managers I have had the pleasure to work with. He was my PM for the Surface Science Package on the Huygens Probe which successfully landed on Saturn’s largest moon, Titan in Jan. 2005. His engineering expertise, his deep understanding of the science aims and his dedication contributed enormously to the success of this unique project.”
