I'm going to follow you sir, I hope you'll do the same for me.Aaron Ahlquisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09264738672969310068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14906887.post-42082572026599131982010-08-17T11:03:38.151-04:002010-08-17T11:03:38.151-04:00Chris, don't get too jealous. The project is ...Chris, don't get too jealous. The project is to demonstrate the skills I've learned as part of the degree program; it isn't a "real Mars project." It is more of a role-play.<br /><br />If it was a real Mars project, we'd need about 7 years to complete it, where as we have 16 weeks to complete the Capstone Project. Did I mention no Thesis requirement for an SysEng MS in this JHU program?<br /><br />As regarding Peter, I agree completely with Allison's assessment. He was a good leader for the project, and as I've found in the intervening years, good leaders are hard to find. He was genuinely enthusiastic and wanted to share that with the rest of the team. Wherever Peter is, and I hope it is at NASA or some NASA contractor, I wish him well.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09078668225749387024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14906887.post-24149647296774950762010-08-17T10:53:20.904-04:002010-08-17T10:53:20.904-04:00Btw, Allison always says how Peter was a great guy...Btw, Allison always says how Peter was a great guy and a great leader on the team, and how he didn't get a fair shake by everyone who wasn't on that Mars team.chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12147801672562702471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14906887.post-68732068732266168562010-08-17T10:51:07.692-04:002010-08-17T10:51:07.692-04:00Sweet dude!
