Kindasorta. 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.

When I was a kid, I used to imagine a giant contraption that would make energy from orbiting objects. Just put a huge copper coil around the atmosphere and start orbiting magnets! LOL

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