Carlos I. Noriega made a career in technology at a time when the terms of that career were still being set.
The record lists Carlos I. Noriega as Peruvian astronaut.
Carlos I. Noriega was born at Lima in 1959. His recorded nationality is Peru. He was educated at University of Southern California and Naval Postgraduate School.
The twentieth century made work collective, expensive and political, with consequences that reached well beyond the people doing it.
He worked as military officer and astronaut.
His affiliations include National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
Technology is judged by adoption: an invention nobody uses is a curiosity.
His work was formally recognised with the Air Medal, Commander of the Order of the Sun of Peru and Great Immigrants Award.
Working from Peru shaped what was possible - the audiences within reach, the institutions that would have him, the language the work first appeared in.
Carlos I. Noriega is still at work, and the final assessment has not been made - the ordinary condition of a living career.
