Hi All
A quick heads up on something cool and a little bit Elite-related.My dad is involved with the Institution of Structural Engineers Educational Charity which runs an annual International Young Engineers Design Competition. This year they decided on a space theme, so he foolishly asked me for some ideas. I sent him a bunch of ED screenshots of Ocellus and Coriolis space stations and said “What about one of these?”.
….long story short:https://www.istructe.org/about-us/funds-and-donations/educational-trust/the-young-structural-engineers-internationalThought I’d let you know as it would be cool to spread the word in case any Cmdrs out there are real life engineers and want to have a go…. and because it’s another of those cool “ED influences real world science and engineering” stories.
Great to meet some of you at Elitemeet, which was an awesome day.
Thanks for all your work on the podcast, great stuff – Keep doing what you do.
