Hi all! I'm happy to introduce myself to this brand new community, I have been a fan of spaceflight as long as I can remember. I didn't watch too many shuttle launches live but i did follow the program. It was really with the first Falcon Heavy launch (and landing) that my spaceflight interest became an obsession as I began to feel hope to see humans advance spaceflight beyond LEO within my lifetime. I had been playing KSP since 2014 so it was fun to explain some of orbital mechanics and booster landing to my friends and family.
Go is another one of my big interests. I first heard about it during Alpha Go's games against Lee Sedol. I highly recommend it to fans of chess or abstract strategy games. I'm usually either deep into a Go obsession or into one of a handful of video games. I'll rotate through these interests and occasionally pick up a new videogame that lasts, while most I'll only play once. Currently I'm playing Silksong, and while I love the game I won't return to it after I beat it, Satisfactory, Minecraft, The Long Dark, Civ V, and of course KSP are games that I frequently return to.
Outside of videogames I enjoy mountainbiking, snowboarding, and hikes. I love nonfiction reading as well, usually on a topic I've not even thought about before and just losing myself in the entire worlds of thought, making, and learning that I would otherwise never encounter. In fiction I like scifi or classic fantasy. I've worked a variety of roles like at a ski resort on the slopes, in HVAC, as a tour guide, as a scheduler in the medical field (where i was promoted to a new position, optimized and automated 90% of it and then promptly demoted back down, lesson learned lol) but currenly am setttled down for the last 6 years working at a small business in sales as I have children to provide for.
I'm really excited for KSA and hope it opens up many more people to spaceflight and engeneering. Forums are easier for me to read and understand that the torrent of conversations that is Discord, and I hope that this site (that will appear in google searches unlike Discord) helps many people not just in their upcoming KSA journeys, but in their education and learning about spaceflight as well. Thank you RocketWerkz for carrying the baton from KSP and for hosting this site.
