[i]He left NASA before an official biography was put together for his concurrence and signature on a NASA Privacy Act Form giving NASA permission to make his biography available to the public. Therefore, a biography was never posted online for him.[/i]
[i]NASA EXPERIENCE: Brian O’Leary was selected as a scientist-astronaut by NASA in August 1967. After completing a Ph.D. thesis on the physical properties of the Martian surface, O'Leary was specifically selected for a potential manned Mars mission when it was still in NASA's program plan. When that program was cancelled in 1968, he resigned from the astronaut program because of lack of prospects for a space flight. During the following decades, his relationship with NASA continued as an academic scientist in unmanned planetary exploration, advanced concepts for space manufacturing of non-terrestrial materials, formulating low-cost scenarios for joint U.S.-Soviet manned missions to Phobos and Mars, and helping NASA design a habitable space station. Most recently, he has investigated advanced antigravity propulsion and free energy concepts as an outside scientist.[/i]
