I applied for a job. I was told that they didn’t hire people without a degree. I have 45 years of experience in the space industry. When I was starting out there were no relevant degrees around Space and Space engineering, indeed the UK had one flying satellite which was not accepting commands. I have experience on ground stations around the world, I have worked on LEO, GEO, MEO and deep space. I have worked on building satellites, the bus and lots of different technologies for payloads, scientific, communications, cube sats. I am a translator of requirements from the engineering to the implementation into manufacture, assembly, integration and testing. I am a facilitator in creating understanding from different groups of people who often talk at cross purposes. I use my experience to seek out and evaluate project, engineering, MAIT and operational risks, highlighting them and proposing mitigation actions. My generation are retiring, the experience is being lost. The skills shortage is acute, people are more and more risk averse proposing the application of standards to the letter, pushing risk into SMEs who don’t understand the costs associated with what they are getting into……... But none of this counts for anything, because I don’t have a degree!

The below image plots the mass growth of different spacecraft from concept design to operation. Boats are another application that typically suffers from significant mass growth. Model-based systems engineering can help to provide more accurate mass estimations in the concept design phase. %========================= ✏️ I am a marine engineer 🔵  I specialize in system simulation and technical user manuals.

For a system engineer dealing with critical Failure Detection, Isolation and Recovery (FDIR) discipline ,all failures/near failures are great sources of learning. Strange but ttue is how mismatched labelling of signal led to drogue parachute receiving break signal instead of deployment resulting it's non deployment. Adequate design margin on the main parachute saved the mission,.. https://lnkd.in/gRxHNDT4
