Robert "Bob" Twiggs is an American aerospace engineer. He is emeritus Professor of Astronautics and Space Science at Morehead State University. He co-invented the CubeSat reference design for miniaturized satellites along with Jordi Puig-Suari of California Polytechnic State University, now an industry standard for the design and deployment of small satellites.
