.....one of my many duties is running documents to various places in the SF area.

I had to pick up documents from a court reporter who lives near Ocean Beach in SF today......what a pretty day on the coast :) Was so hard to go back to work, you have no idea!

You could keep your camera with you and post random E pics... Just an idea...:rolleyes: :smile: Part time E job...:razz:

Thats why I live out here! :D Was playing frisbee at Ocean Beach at sunset yesterday-- bEautiful!! :) Saw a few Es in the parking lot- one totally loaded with surfboards :):)

Living on a coast has its advantages!

Yeah, I lived in Ocean Beach for a semester when I first moved up to the Bay. Great part of the city! Funny cause now I live another Ocean Beach in San Diego!

I agree - it is nice to take pictures while you're at work. Where I work took this one - which is the space shuttle - by remote control from a camera mounted in a window of the space station!

Nice Shot !!

So when do we put an E in Space ??

I'm a PC Technician serving the restaurant industry (all those registers are just computers on a network...) and I cover Central to Eastern North Carolina on an on-call basis. My home is my office and my "E" is my transport. I'll put 60K worth of miles on her in year, so we will be very familiar with each other soon - I just got her on 10/28. I get calls on the coast from time to time and I always make a day of it at the beach if I can!

Pretty dang nice! I've been fortunate to see it launch from the ground about 10 years back, but thts the best seat in the house! :grin:
That would be cool!

I got to see a shuttle launch when I was on a det in Ft. Lauderdale. Unfortunately, it was the Challenger. Not a good day. :-(

Ya my wife and I watched the Columbia on that day. Its fate later on was just as terrible. But being at the Challenger explosion must have been horrifying!

I have worked for NASA for almost 24 years. The final days of Challenger and Comumbia were two very dark days for all of us here. I got to work on the Columbia Accident Investigation as well as the Return To Flight program. Very fascinating work but bittersweet.

For a while my "office" was on this, our flying laboratory. Yeah, it's a cool job and I get to work from home twice a week.

Oh yeah. Numbing is the best way I can describe it. Surreal.

I have a friend who worked for NASA in Houston and knew the Columbia crew personally. Knowing that brought back the angst I felt during the first tragedy. My heart goes out to you, too.

I'm glad you got to be on the Return to Flight program. Very rewarding and healing, too, I'm sure.

By the way, I really like your office! :)

While my picture is fresh I'll add that the little pod under the nose of the 757, just in front of the nose gear, houses a set of cameras, two IR and one color, for our Enhanced Vision program.

Tooljedi heard about what I'm putting together in my E. A low-cost Enhanced Vision System that will capture the scene in front of the vehicle and enhance the image for subsequent display on a small screen in front of the driver. It will enhance the scene in poor visibility conditions such as heavy rain and fog for automotive as well as general aviation applications. It will not see through it but it will give a better-than-visual version of it, similar to what we had on the 757.

I'm using my E since it's so much easier to use that as a test bed than a real aircraft.

Here's the portable processor... http://dragon.larc.nasa.gov/retinex/background/real-time.html

Here's some examples for anyone who's interested...
