Pamela Rai Menges, sometimes identifying as Pamela A. Menges, is an American entrepreneur and innovator in technologies related to space flight and energy.
Life
Menges has said her father owned an engineering firm and his connections and support were to influence her career.[1] During the first year of her doctorate in 1993 she founded Aerospace Research Systems (ARSY), indicating the purpose was to hold patents for inventions she discovered as part of her doctorate.[1] Menges said her father was to come out of retirement and developed ARSY while she concentrated on her doctorate and early part of her career.[1]
Menges was to take a position at Los Alamos National Laboratory, being involved with several flight testing and satellite projects.[2]
Returning to ARSY, there was noted development work on the Ramstar, an orbital spaceplane, utilizing artificial neural membrane (ANM) technology patented by Menges.[3] Menges and ARSY's project of the Artificial Neural Membrane Flapping Wing were one of the NASA Institute for Advanced Concepts (NIAC) CP 5-01 Phase I Awards in 2005.[4]
Other companies were to be spun off from ARSY and headed by Menges, these included Star Sailor Energy, and Ars Verde, Inc.[2]
Menges has remained active in academia and instructed a course of Engineering Energy Systems at the University of Cincinnati.[5]
Menges also holds an FAA commercial pilot's license.[2]
