Jason Hyrum Steffen (born May 15, 1975) is an American astrophysicist and associate professor of physics and astronomy at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV).
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.
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.
He was inspired to begin research on the topic after waiting in an exceptionally long line to board a plane at an airport.
He also hosts a stream on the streaming service, Twitch, by the name of horizonSci.
