Leaving East Hampton

Update: Today is the big day! Today will be my last day in East Hampton until August.

My dad and I will be leaving this afternoon, as we will be staying in a hotel overnight. My flight is at 7:30 AM tomorrow, so we do not want to have to leave East Hampton at 2:00 or 3:00 in the morning!

I have never been so excited, or so tired from all the preparations 😴. 

Wish me a safe flight tomorrow!

Last week was a short week in terms of work. After the four-day weekend for the 4th of July, I only had to work on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. My design team and I spent basically all day on Wednesday in the Singularity University iLab, working on 3D printed parts for Dr. Cagle's project. We were able to successfully print a few parts using the FormLabs printer. This particular 3D printer operates using a liquid resin. A platform lowers into a bath of the liquid resin, and a UV light is used to cure the liquid, layer by layer, into the shape that you want to print. I found that the FormLabs printer is very user friendly, and the resolution of the prints is exceptional. The FormLabs printer is an awesome tool that we have access to for Dr. Cagle's project. On Thursday morning, I went to a lecture about how humans adapt in space. I was expecting the talk to be about how humans psychologically adapt to being in space; after all, it can get awfully lonely up there. I also t

Last week was such a fun week! It was a pretty chill week in terms of work; the design team and I basically just spent our time printing our prototypes, reaching out to people around the Bay Area that could serve as resources for Dr. Cagle's project, and working on our own independent CAD projects (for example, I CAD'ed a fidget spinner from scratch using Fusion 360). However, the Smith students were offered the opportunity to go to lots of cool lectures and tours over the course of this week. As I mentioned in my last post, we went on a tour of the 80x40 wind tunnel on Monday. The fun and adventures only continued as the week progressed. I began last Tuesday by going to a lecture entitled "Satellite Formation-Flying for Future Space Science and Exploration." The talk was given by a Stanford professor named Simone D'Amico, and it was about how we can pair two or more satellites to accomplish mission objectives. He talked about the rendezvous of the Gemini 6 an
