Juno was something about radar - penetrating the cloud layers to see what was below.

In college my son worked on the FFT engine that processed the radar data. He has code circling Jupiter!

I have a close friend that worked on the mars rover.

He uses me as a reference.

As soon as they start being like “can he use the latest android libraries and techniques” or some crap. I just shoot back: “The man has code on another planet, he’s more than capable of picking up anything”

They shut up so fast lol
