<strong><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">Biography </span></strong><br>
<br>
NASA engineer Jose Hernandez wanted to fly in space ever since he heard that the first Hispanic-American had been chosen to travel into space. One of four children in a migrant farming family from Mexico, Hernandez -- who didn't learn English until he was 12
years old -- spent much of his childhood on what he calls "the California circuit," traveling with his family from Mexico to southern California each March, then working northward to the Stockton area by November, picking strawberries and cucumbers at farms
along the route. Then they would return to Mexico for Christmas, and start the cycle all over again come spring. After graduating high school in Stockton, Hernandez enrolled at the University of the Pacific in Stockton, where he earned a degree in electrical
engineering and was awarded a full scholarship to the graduate program at the University of California in Santa Barbara, where he continued his engineering studies. In 1987, he accepted a full-time job with Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory where he had
worked as a co-op in college.<br>
<br>
While at Lawrence Livermore, Hernandez worked on signal and image processing applications in radar imaging, computed tomography, and acoustic imaging. Later in his career, Hernandez worked on developing quantitative x-ray film imaging analysis techniques for
the x-ray laser program. Hernandez applied these techniques in the medical physics arena and co-developed the first full-field digital mammography imaging system. This system has proven useful for detecting breast cancer at an earlier stage than present film/screen
mammography techniques. Hernandez has won recognition awards for his work on this project. He has also worked in the international arena where he represented Lawrence Livermore and the U.S. Department of Energy on Russian nuclear non proliferation issues.
He was selected to begin training as a mission specialist as part of the 2004 astronaut candidate class.</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020"><br>
