It was great to connect with old, and new colleagues at IMS this year near the rockies. It had been several years since we connected with some suppliers as well. Highlights include:
- Reconnecting with new and existing accounts for the Microelectronics Products and Services division of NGC - Yes We Gan
From MIT, NASA and NPR, we're extremely excited about these developements in deep space:
"Astronomers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have picked up repetitive radio signals from a galaxy billions of light-years from Earth.
Scientists have not been able to pinpoint the exact location of the radio waves yet, but suspect the source could be neutron stars, which are made from collapsed cores of giant stars.
In the ever-changing world of technology - radiofrequencies, microwaves, and millimeterwaves are within the ecosystems that hold our domain together. Researching and communicating with various suppliers, along with budgeting, can be time consuming and unclear.

The coronavirus pandemic is going to be as consequential for defense and security as were the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks in the U.S. For the defense sector, there are multiple implications to ponder and possibly to begin to position for as these play out in 2021 and beyond.
From Forbes and Starburst:
Elon Musk told a group of assembled space entrepreneurs that if they can build a rocket component better than SpaceX can, “we would love to buy that,” noting his private space startup used to build the landing legs for its Falcon 9 rocket but now buys them from race car manufacturer All American Racers. “We’d love to outsource more.”
From Space.com:
WASHINGTON — A month after NASA rolled out a strategy to increase commercial use of the International Space Station, some in Congress are skeptical of the effort.
At a July 10 hearing of the House Science Committee’s space subcommittee, some members suggested that allowing commercial activities on the station, including visits by private astronauts, wasn’t an appropriate use for the facility as NASA prepares to return humans to the moon and go on to Mars.
