| After
several years of designing and building, from scratch, my
own solid propellant rockets and telemetry, I graduated
from high school in 1968. I was determined to get
my electrical engineering degree and join NASA. But
the rug was pulled out from under NASA shortly thereafter
by Congress, leaving many PHD's pumping gas. Discouraged, I started my own business, which failed in a recession during the early 1970's. I then worked in medical electronics and eventually went to work in the industrial automation field. I worked my way into upper management and in 1990 I left to become an independent inventor. There is little doubt in my mind that commercial space ventures will establish a foothold in the next century. I am confident that my children's and grand children's generations will have opportunities which I would have killed for. Invention and the process of bringing those inventions to market will be a very important aspect of commercial space ventures, and will truly be a new and fertile area where inventors will prosper.
