Introduce yourself! (And show us your swag)

[a_q]

Hi I'm Adam, I don't have much "swag" as such, apart from....

FIRST EVIDENCE OF LIFE ON MARS!

Apart from that, I'm a software developer with a smattering of electronics, and an interest in science.

 

[Wael]

Hi everyone!

I'm Wael..
I'm interested in Astrophysics and Particle Physics. My background is electrical engineering.
I'm working now with friends for an extraordinary project to find a solution for the orbital space debris by finding alternative solution to the traditional Satellite communication.
I'm looking to meet new people interested in space.
Thank you ..

I forgot to mention, I'm into Amateur Radio too, and Wael your diagram reminds me of skywave propagation, and a bit of troposcatter. The 'photons' are around 30MHz or up to 10GHz, depending.

Hi Adam, thank you.. Actually we are studying to find a way to transmit signals in curved lines, this is in-order to find an alternative way to the intermediate Satellite between transmitter and receiver; so, we this can be helpful to reduce the unnecessary objects around Earth.

How can we do that? we are working on 3 approches:
1. We are re-studying the characteristics of photon in order to find an alternative way of sending information rather than change in Amplitude & Frequency. So, we can utilize the same concept of Skywave but with higher amount of information.

2. Interaction between photons/ bosons leads to new particles in different direction.

3. Imaginary particle has a special characteristic follows special engineering module propagates in curved lines.

This is brief about it..
thanks.

Hi, this is Mark Bogar and I'm interested in the sciences. I am interested the human condition, if you are confronted by a problem then chances are you can find resolution in thoughtful scientific evaluation.

I have many interests, but when I sweep over the screen on my phone to see the news of the day I find it takes a lot of scrolling to get past the Astrophysical stuff. I bet it is a bit of a struggle to find the daily for you people too. It isn't just that subject alone that intrigued me, you name it and I am going to babble on about it. LOL!!! DIRT, it doesn't just get on your shoes, it's in your veins. Carbon and silicate are just like salt, you can't avoid it so you might as well wallow in it?

 

[Terra Australis]

Hello! I am Terra Australis, TA is fine. I live in Australia. I am a High School Math and Science teacher, but my true passion is learning about the natural world and all space related matters.
Like many Aussies I like to see the funny side of things but most important things to me are truth, fairness, repect and empathy.

Greetings,
I've always been interested in Space and other technical topics.
As it happens, back in the 1990s, Digital Equipment Corp published two books that I authored:
"Building Dependable Systems: The VMS Approach" and then later "Building Dependable Systems: The OpenVMS Approach".
They covered ways to make sure that your computer system was always working and always correct (even in the face of non-trivial internal failures).
Of course, such behavior is pretty important for computers and other systems in space travel, because one cannot simply pull into an orbiting repair shop and have your life-support system overhauled. (unless they put you up at the orbiting hotel while they work)

Have posted on Space.com for only a little while. My name is Jim. Retired computer programmer and ESL teacher (13 years in a foreign country I prefer not to name.) Now living there with my wife. Spent couple years in US Army, a couple in Peace Corps in Malawi (witnessed return of Halley's comet while there). Six years in DC working for gov. Many years in Detroit area working for the private sector. Many hobbies: guitar and uke (thumb independent finger-picker - favorite picker: Tommy Emanuel), juggler, build and fly foam RC planes and wings. Bicycled across the US by myself in early 90s - made me realize you can do anything if you break it up into bite-sized chunks. Am a bit of a fundamentalist conservative Jesus freak. Love science and space stuff but don't care to travel there. Favorite scifi movie: Serenity. Love LOTR too. Narnia was a bit too child oriented for me. Like to to get out my telescope occasionally.
Love Musk - just read MUSK... by Vance, you either love or hate him but wow what he has done for the launch business is undeniable. Played with Estes rockets growing up. Favorite scientist: Claude Shannon. - made his juggling machine among other science toys. I check Space.com daily.

 

[Moosegal]

Hello. I’m the real online Moosegal. I’ve always been interested in space however my real dream was a much smaller version of colonizing a planet. I actually always dreamed of a private, gated community in the outreach northern area of Canada being invitation only.
I also have a son that just graduated the aerospace engineering at Carlton University so that would make me a proud mom.

I have a decent amount of education, worked in many fields (welder fitter, educational instructor, private caregiver, researcher, professional driver and more). And as you can see … I’m old.

I am looking forward to reading your post. I’m more of a lurker however there are times when I will contribute.
Thank you for your time and now I’ll step aside and read some stuff.

 

[Kassinni]

Hello All,
My name is Alex. I am happy I found the place where I can talk to someone with same interests and knoledge in space domain
I am living and working in UAE for the last 12 years, but originally mixed French-Ukrainian blood. Since my childhood, when my father let me look at the moon through his theodolite (something similar to telescope), i started to be interested in Space Exploration and Astronomy.
In 2008 graduated from Aerospace Engineering faculty of one of the East-European Univesities with major in Space Lanuch Systems Engineering.
I will be happy to discuss anything about Space Engineering and share or gain any knowledge about that.
And Thank you All for welcoming all new-comers.

Hello,

I'm Philippe, a Belgian retired in China (I'm 72) and I'm staring to learn about the stars formation. For the moment I'm busy to try to understand the collapse and fragmentation of molecular cloud, the Jeans law and it's application
Have a nice day

Welcome!

We are a friendly lot here, so ask away if you have any questions.
