Stanford here I come

I was selected to go to Stanford for 3 weeks this summer to work with NASA on migrating an active satellite (Gravity Probe B) to the Air Force Academy. I will be the Computer Science team lead, and my mission will be to figure out how to migrate the control center and the mission center to the academy and integrate them into our network and architecture. I am going to be one of 7 people that got selected on this 100 million dollar project. My team members were selected from a wide variety of intellectual faction, such as astrology, aeronautical engineers, history, system engineers and management majors. But when all is said and done, not only will the Air Force Academy get an active satellite (and a famous one) but I will have had the opportunity to go to Stanford and represent the Air Force.
