The Robert "Bob" Twiggs STEM Education Collection consists of PowerPoint presentations, videos, published articles, research reports, etc. created by Bob Twiggs during his career as an aerospace engineer and professor of space systems engineering from 1984 to 2025. The collection also includes PowerPoint presentations, articles, and reports from other scientists and researchers in the areas of aerospace engineering and satellite construction.

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.
