Hi...I'm Joe and a bit long in the tooth. I sat on our front porch with my dad looking at the nightime sky for Sputnik to pass overhead (not realizing the implications as I'm s
ure my dad did), saw the broadcasts of the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo launches (and tragedies), the moon landings, the Voyager missions, the Space Shuttle missions (and tragedies) and so much more. A staunch fan of "Forbidden Planet", "When World's Collide", "The Day The Earth Stood Still", the entire Star Trek franchise, the Star Wars neverending saga. I so truly wanted to be an astronaut when I was in second grade that my teacher funneled every bit of information that she could find into my hands.
But, I became an engineer instead. Long retired after 40 plus years...and i enjoyed looking for opportunities to implement scientific discoveries into the real world. I still try to keep abreast of the progress of actual science in the current world.
Have a great day! Enjoy them while you have them and use them well.
