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'm a 41 year old software engineer. I write software to control chambers of various sorts. I have a keen interest in planetary exploration.
My biggest claim to fame (with regard to this group) is that I actually saw MER being assembled at JPL. I was there to automate another chamber that was in the high bay with MER. The chamber is being used for the SIM mission. It was one of the greatest thrills of my life. I was no more than 30 feet from one of the vehicles. In fact, one of the people working on the rover came over to my group and pointed to the back shell that was behind us. He said we were TOO close to it and asked us to move farther away. I was actually TOO close to MER. I have been following the mission closely since then. I only recently discovered this forum after the article on spacedaily.com referrenced it. I am very impressed with the quality of the posts. Thanks to all of you. |
