I just joined this community last night, and I'm just curious about some of the people here. I'm only 19 years old, but I'm more interested in all things space than anyone I've ever met. Just out of curiosity, what are people's ages in this forum?

I am mostly a lurker (I think I have posted a total of 3 times) but I read the forum obsessively. I love getting all the expert opinions and analysis to go with the raw data from NASA, JPL, ESA et al. I am 42 and I was in kindergarten during the early days of Apollo. I became obsessed with space exploration and hardware the way some kids today are obsessed with dinosaurs. I could fashion a lunar lander out of almost any collection of castoff objects and I could name more of the working parts on a Saturn V than I can now name on my Nissan pickup truck.
I live in the US. I grew up in a rural part of Eastern Kentucky (in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains) but I now live in San Francisco. I am a professor of Cell Biology at the University of Calfornia and I study how cells establish and control their internal architecture. But don't worry. I am not particularly interested in "Astrobiology". |
