Yes, I now supporting the NASA engineering guys at Johnson Space Center on the Constellation & Orion programs. Good stuff! I do want to post something that showcases the rocket and control system, and I have an idea. I might start out with vertically launching the X-15 somewhere in western Europe and see if I can land somewhere in Italy. :-) I think that would be a cool flight.
