The Way to San Jose

New month, new blog post. Ha ha. Yeah, I know. Wired says to update early and often, and link like there's no tomorrow. Too busy making money and taking 12 credit hours of grad school.

Also, during the week of September 18, I went to San Jose with Larry Bell and fellow student Candice Feuer. We presented our work, and got feedback. See below for photos of my travels to San Jose.

The runway in Houston. Rainy. Typical.

California! It's dry, and 70 degrees outside!

So this is what an urban freeway looks like without billboards!

The streets of San Jose.

Robert Bigelow, of Bigelow Aerospace, addresses a luncheon. He talked about his company and what they're doing (trying to make access to space cheap enough to make a space hotel profitable). He showed some images taken from the Genesis I spacecraft, which his company designed.

Overall, it was beautiful experience. I can't wait to go back and visit northern California again!
