Good Morning All!
Just swinging through here as an absolute space nerd. I'm probably not one to become a candidate to leave this planet, but I want to be part of the team who sends someone else.
I work in IT, massive background in Data Centres, Infrastructure, Cloud work, Data Storage & a good chunk of Desktop Support background. Can you help me find a good portal into working with a Space Agency or Supplier in the UK that will accept... y'know, a full British National with Security Clearance?
Would love to help send Falcons up into orbit, but they're not big on British Nationals working from home...
Lots of thanks and even more love!
As you maybe aware NASA recently announced it was closing down its VIPER mission despite having build the rover and paid for the lander. This seems crazy but I feel might give the U.K. an opportunity.
NASA have said they’ll look for 3rd parties to work with to make it happen but the deadline in the 1st of August to begin talks.
This seems to give the U.K. A once in a generation opportunity to become partners on a cut price moon lander.
To try and make this happen I beg you to reach out to your local MP and ask them to support this.
Here’s a form email you can use or adapt. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HMuRVC6dvlWdiqR0VSsbMXpSDnIbQA3HqpG125gcLCk/edit
I run a small event in Basingstoke and every year everyone comments in the amazing night sky. I would love to get someone who knows what they are doing to come along with a telescope. Paid gig if anyone fancies it?
DM me is best

hi guys, I'm currently working on a project where I'm looking to model the launch vehicle and launch site but have yet to find any references of the launch site. was wondering if anyone had any images that I could use :)
As it's free this is, of course, not sponsored in any way. I just think more people need to be made aware of this opportunity and there's not been enough advertising or signposting of it

I'm not very involved in space, but last night I saw what looked to be a rocket-trail at about 278 degrees west, I'm not sure what it was and my phone took some awful photos but to me it looked like a rocket trail. Could it have been electron coming over from New Zealand???
