I've gotta be clear, I was an astrophysicist, I knew all about orbital mechanics and how to design missions, but I've never been involved in rocket design, also, the emphasis on 'was' - I'm now a software dev. Of course since this youtube thing took off I'm now hanging out with rocket scientists and astrophysicists again, so I'm knee deep in it again.

Anyway currently my best tutorial series is about a year old and predates the contracts, I guess that means I'm due to put together another.....

The video you made where you flew a plane designed by your dad had me in stitches. I had you pegged for an astro type from your Elite videos and your little tidbits about stars (photon escape time etc), and it's refreshing to find someone who can make entertaining videos while delivering interesting stuff like that and making it feel natural. I didn't even know Mercury wasn't tidally locked!
