Eleanor Helin honored him with the naming of the asteroid 10315 Brewster, to acknowledge his work for PCAS, Stony Ridge Observatory, and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). Singer-Brewster is currently a retired member of the staff at JPL. At JPL, he worked on a number of spacecraft missions such as the Pluto Fast Flyby, the Outer Planets/Solar Probe Mission and the Europa Orbiter mission. At the time of his retirement in 2003 he was working in the Mars Advanced Studies Program and the Europa Orbiter/X2000 avionics development project at JPL.
