I may be getting the same degree as a rocket scientist, but...

I've always been a lover of science, ever since my parents made the mistake (?) of getting me a chemistry set for Christmas when I was seven.

Of particular interest to me has always been rockets and nuclear stuff. I love sci-fi, and I think it shows. :)

How cool, then, is it that I am now part of the public relations campaign for the Ad Astra Rocket Company, makers of the VASIMR (Variable Specific Impulse Magnetoplasma Rocket). (Try and guess which one of the testimonials is mine, I dare you. :))

What's even cooler is that I was personally solicited for the testimonial by a friend of mine who now works on said plasma space rocket.

I think that bears repeating: a real PLASMA SPACE ROCKET.

Awesome.
