Well I started this thread to point out that 99% of the JPL Engineers & Scientists are very approachable; certainly nowadays with e-mail…
 But as a 10-year old kid I used to write to NASA and got really good replies from Dr Charles HALL (Pioneer), Dr Gerry SOFFEN (Viking), Dr Bruce MURRAY (JPL director) and Dr Edward STONE (JPL director)...  http://beacon.jpl.nasa.gov/exhibits/directors/index.htm How is Your experience with this ? |

QUOTE (PhilCo126 @ Dec 31 2005, 05:52 AM)  Well I started this thread to point out that 99% of the JPL Engineers & Scientists are very approachable; certainly nowadays with e-mail… But as a 10-year old kid I used to write to NASA and got really good replies from Dr Charles HALL (Pioneer), Dr Gerry SOFFEN (Viking), Dr Bruce MURRAY (JPL director) and Dr Edward STONE (JPL director)... http://beacon.jpl.nasa.gov/exhibits/directors/index.htm How is Your experience with this ? I've had good luck with email to Ed Stone...but then again he was my PhD advisor. :-) I worked in Ed's Space Radiation Lab from 1978 to 1981, and it was a great experience. He is a rare example of a man who is a good person, a great scientist, and a great manager of complex tasks. The Voyager Jupiter and Saturn encoutners both happened while I was there, and it was amazing to watch the orchestration of fantastically complex operations. I worked on another project (a big satellite called HEAO-C). When a paper for the HEAO project was published, the whole team would meet for a couple days to go over the paper line by line. Ed would ask, "Could this be made more understandable by a scientist who is not a specialist in cosmic rays?". And his grant proposals! How do you get funding for $100 million projects? By writing a grant proposal that is a higher quality scientfic document than most finished journal papers! Beautiful explainations of what is known, what is not known, why is it important, what is the calculated error of measurments, etc, etc. |
