NASA Internship: Day 13
Ungh. I've spent hours and hours, days really at this point, pouring over manuals for our FreeWave Transcievers, and the plane OS and c/c++ and I still can't send a message wirelessly. BUT I am getting closer.
Yesterday I went to a coloquium about a corporate space venture company called SpaceDev. The man speaking, James Benson, founded SpaceDev in 1997 and since then they have had a 100% success rate in all their ventures. At least that's what he told us. He layed out in a series of slides a buisness plan and way of thought that matched nicely with my paper The Dawn of the Corporate Space Cowboys. Needless to say I was extremely excited, especially by the videos involving rocketchair descent/ascent to and from the moon!
Next summer internship? Who knows.

so out of curiousity...how many "ventures" are we talking about here...how many constitutes 100% success rate? but seriously, i don't mean to be contrary. it really is delightful to see you so enthusiastic about your work there. tell me more sometime (like when you aren't "busy").
