He is also a member of the science team for NASA's Kepler mission. He worked at Fermilab and Northwestern University for a decade before joining the UNLV faculty. He is known for his work on the discoveries of several exoplanets.[3][4][5] He has also developed an alternative method for boarding passengers onto commercial aircraft, known as the Steffen method. It has been found to be significantly faster than the "back-to-front" method used by most commercial airlines.[6][7] He was inspired to begin research on the topic after waiting in an exceptionally long line to board a plane at an airport.[8] References1. ^1 2 {{cite thesis |last=Steffen |first=Jason |date=2006 |title=Detecting New Planets in Transiting Systems |type=Ph.D. |chapter= |publisher=University of Washington |docket= |oclc= |url=https://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0609492|page=107 |access-date=4 February 2019}} 2. ^{{cite web |title=Jason Steffen CV |url=http://www.physics.unlv.edu/~jsteffen/docs/cvsteffen.pdf |website=University of Nevada, Las Vegas |accessdate=4 February 2019}} 3. ^{{cite web |title=Jason Steffen |url=https://www.unlv.edu/people/jason-steffen |website=University of Nevada, Las Vegas |accessdate=4 February 2019}} 4. ^{{cite news |last1=Choi |first1=Charles Q. |title=In Alien Solar Systems, Twin Planets Could Share Life |url=https://www.space.com/31297-alien-planets-could-share-life.html |accessdate=4 February 2019 |work=Space.com |date=7 December 2015}} 5. ^{{cite news |last1=Bauman |first1=Joe |title=Dramatic results may come from new planet-finder |url=https://www.petoskeynews.com/des_sci/dramatic-results-may-come-from-new-planet-finder/article_f0ea1999-ab7e-56af-8295-c11b6ee20d44.html |accessdate=4 February 2019 |work=Petoskey News-Review |date=28 August 2018 |language=en}} 6. ^{{cite news |last1=Stromberg |first1=Joseph |title=The way we board airplanes makes no sense |url=https://www.vox.com/2014/4/25/5647696/the-way-we-board-airplanes-makes-absolutely-no-sense |accessdate=4 February 2019 |work=Vox |date=25 April 2014}} 7. ^{{cite news |last1=Stockton |first1=Nick |title=What's Up With That: Boarding Airplanes Takes Forever |url=https://www.wired.com/2014/11/whats-boarding-airplanes-takes-forever/ |accessdate=4 February 2019 |work=Wired |date=4 November 2014}} 8. ^{{cite news |title=Please be seated |url=https://www.economist.com/science-and-technology/2011/09/03/please-be-seated |accessdate=4 February 2019 |work=The Economist |date=3 September 2011}} External links
