Albert Roach Hibbs (October 19, 1924 - February 24, 2003) was a mathematician and scientist best known as "The Voice of JPL" due to his gift for explaining difficult science in lay terms. He helped establish the Space Science Division at Jet Propulsion Laboratory in 1960 and served as its first chief. He was the systems designer for the USA's first satellite, and established the framework for exploration of the solar system through the 1960s. Hibbs qualified as an astronaut in 1967 and was slated to be a crew member of Apollo 25, but with the Apollo program ending at 17 he did not get to the Moon.
