First day in WISRD!

Walking into WISRD gave me a feeling of both freedom and excitement to learn what I wanted to without many restrictions and amazing amounts of materials. I have always wanted to pursue aerospace engineering, and now that I am here, I can.

Statement of interest from WISRD application: I have always loved to read about and experiment with space/spacial technology, and building functional engines, machines, etc. Out of recycled materials or things like boxes I would have thrown away. I even built a functional animatronic suit with full joints and hands. But my main focus especially here in WISRD, is to pursue my passion, which i’ve found out is best to do here.

I built two communicators today, with working text and keyboards. It works by transmitting a signal from 1 to the other, but it only works with one other one. you cant use more than that.

I helped Magnus out with his project and finished up my first proposal, My plan is to build a water capsule project that can go deep into the water, so that we can see what is in the depths of the ocean with a better view. My capsule would explore deeper parts of the ocean, and its camera would record/take photos of deep oceanic biomes, creatures, and habitats. It will be very small, and have a powerful micro-camera, and be powerful enough to make at least one round trip down 400 feet. I looked for print models, made print models, found engines, motors, propellers, cameras, and more.
