RE: 60 year anniversary of Sputnik today! - Some reflections from inside the European Space Agency
I have said it before and I say it again, you have the coolest job ever.
I would have given a lot for working at ESA.
Astronomi and the universe have been a big part of my interest my whole life.
Can feel that I am a bit jealous of you :)
Hehe, well there are cooler jobs at ESA than the one I currently have, so not the coolest job ever, yet ;)
Yeah, I was also in the place where I knew I would do almost whatever it took to get a foot inside this workplace :P so when the opportunity came, I just dropped everything I held and took it immediately ^^.
Well, maybe we can do something related to space together one day ;)
Well, you are on the inside so a heck better than me :)
If my companies grow into the skie some day, I am doing as one of my heroes, Elon Musk, and start a space agency :)
Let me know and I am all into do something related to space any time.
"If you want to make a small fortune in the launch vehicle business, start with a large one." - Elon Musk
At least that's a sentence I have in the back of my mind when, alongside my spacey work, I spend time and effort on steemit, in trading and with some StartUp ideas on the side. :P It's cool to remember that when Elon was younger, he was just as determined to work with Space one day, yet chose to do Zip2 and PayPal. Completely different e-commerce related ideas. So we're on the right track to the stars! ;)
Have you read the biography of Elon Musk? If not, do it, it is just marvelous.
Cool to see that you have some startUp plans.
I also startet up as a (Norwegian word) grunder, and still see my self as on, but now I have also startet investing in companies that I find interesting.
So if you have a space company up your sleeve, let me know
Of course I have read it! (The question is how many times? ;p)
That's very cool to hear! Would love to know more about the companies you've started as well as the portfolio you've invested in. Being able to look at what promising new projects are coming up, and being in a position where one can bet on the future by investing in what you want to be a part of, is indeed great, and something I'm working hard to be able to do myself hopefully :)
I don't have any space startups (yet!) but could give you a few suggestions if you are looking for interesting ones :)
