Reinhold Ewald

German astronaut

Reinhold Ewald belongs to the record of technology as a figure whose work outlasted the moment that produced it.

The record lists Reinhold Ewald as German astronaut.

Reinhold Ewald was born at Mönchengladbach in 1956. His recorded nationality is Germany. He was educated at University of Cologne.

The twentieth century made work collective, expensive and political, with consequences that reached well beyond the people doing it.

Reinhold Ewald is described as astronaut and physicist.

The engineer's achievement usually disappears into infrastructure, which is the point.

Formal recognition came in the shape of the Officer's Cross of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany and Order of Merit of North Rhine-Westphalia (2020).

That the work was done from Germany matters. Opportunity has never been evenly distributed, and where a person is based shapes which doors open and whose work gets seen.

Reinhold Ewald is still at work, and the final assessment has not been made - the ordinary condition of a living career.
