Model Forum / General / Rockets / November 2003Semi-OT: Pix of my VLA/Los Alamos trip
For those of you with nothing better to do than to pay detailed attention to my travels, I've posted pix of the VLA and Los Alamos trips to: www.propulsionpolymers.com/radioastronomy/vlaXX.JPG XX = 01 to 21 www.propulsionpolymers.com/radioastronomy/losalamosXX.JPG XX = 03 to 10 The Los Alamos series includes a picture of an item with fins, so by looking at this post sideways, through rose-coloured someone-elses-prescription glasses, you can easily see that it's rocketry related. Enjoy. Did you see any Snakes ?

Is that a Very Large Array in your pocket, or .... ;-) Man.... great rocket guy makes it to new mexico and I miss him(even though I am still a couple hours drive away).

Not too many rocket folks, especially Canadians make it down here. When Richard Nakka was down here a couple years ago for an arocket event I only got to hang around him for a couple hours. I had school, work, and other dull stuff so I couldn't see his propellant casting technique or see his flight down near where you were. My EET program does a yearly trip down to the VLA. I didn't make it last time but would like to check it out. I am not really a astronomy guy, but it sounds worth the day trip. Did you have fun?

We can chat about LDRS plans.

If you come to the 2004 SAE World Congress, you'll get a chance to hear me give a paper on aluminum pretreatment in the auto industry. I'll even buy you a beer afterwards, Molson or LaBatt's, of course. ;-) Mark Simpson NAR 71503 Level II God Bless our peacekeepers > Really?

While I'm nearly certain that I'd find your paper fascinating, it's unlikely that my employer would send me to an SAE meeting. (Although, years ago, in more enlightened and prosperous times, my employer sent me to a low-cost access to space conference :-) ). I've recently presented papers on requirements for key-agreement protocols for IEEE link-layer security, and a paper on insecurities in EPON networks having to do with receiver physics. >>Really?

Oh, you're right....different standards. (I haven't the faintest idea what you're talking about <g>) Mak Simpson NAR 71503 Level II God Bless our peacekeepers |
