When I was a young boy, my mom worked for the Space Studies Institute at Princeton University. Her first office was in the basement next to the machine shop. Take your child to work days were always an exciting adventure. Around that time, Gerry O’Neil, my mom’s boss, was all about terraforming Mars and the mass driver, which would take rock mined on the moon and shoot it back to earth to be caught by a giant sort of galactic catcher’s mitt.
BoingBoing links to a guy who has made a cheap mass driver, cool videos.
Sometimes we had actual rocket scientists hanging around the house. They got me interested in 3D graphics and computers at an early age.
