Among other things, I do satellite orbit analysis, mission ops, maneuver targeting, and orbit determination-related stuff. Pretty much anything to do with how the satellite goes round and round.

So, I guess you work at or near Space Command or NORAD, eh?

Sounds like something my son tells me he does. He works for Aerojet.

It's a wonder what mankind has been able to do. Who was it that said that we are the means of the Universe to understand itself?
