| Being and old Surveyor I am interested in any projects that determine locations of objects on Earth, in the Solar system, the Galaxy and beyond. I remember the first days of the space program, the first artificial satellite the Russians put up, that was a big deal. First used a computer in 1969 starting college, men landed on the moon that year. Hooked on space and computer tech ever since. With the Boinc projects I am able to contribute slightly, what's not to like. As we venture into space the knowledge and orbits off objects in our solar system are essential to successful missions and space travel. |
