The highlight of my week was when I traveled to Astoria to visit the MERTS center that houses PHOEBE. I was able to learn in detail how PHOEBE works and what exactly PHOEBE does. I was and still am impressed by the fact that the glider moves by utilizing the properties of density, and because of that she is able to spend more time out collecting data on each mission.
I am still on my mission to try and educate myself as much as possible about the research here at CMOP. I have started to map out the scope and sequence of the curriculum I will write, and am every excited about it.
