It’s good that NASA is (1) finding valuable tasks and (2) able to publicise them effectively.

It is also encouraging to see the work of an independent scholar, Buckminster Fuller, come to some fruition. This should be an inspiration to all kids, including ones who don’t want to enter into academia formally! I know Fuller was definitely an early influence on me, as I have always said in my bio.

Cheers,
NS
