I'm an Astronaut
Today I was able to do my first live shot using the Satellite truck. Very exciting.
TV 101:
There are two ways for my face to be plastered on your television live from the field. One way uses a microwave truck....which is much like a radio signal. You must be within reach of a transmitter (ours is in the shape of a 2,000 ft tower in mechanicsburg).
This can produce...like the radio a bad signal.
The other way is a the glorious Satellite shot. This beams the shot to outer space...then back to your station on earth and out to the public.
Today I was beamed to Space from our brand spanking new Sat truck. It got me wondering... wondered what happened to me up there. I wondered how I liked it. What it felt like. And then I wonder how it felt to be shot right back down to earth at the speed of light.
Things to do in life:
Go to space......check.

1) Now.... thats pretty sweet.
WillnBek.com Thursday, July 17, 20082) Like Dr. McCoy, you don't like having your molecules scrambled all over space? Or maybe you do--sounds like you enjoyed it. :)
LGrant Thursday, July 17, 20083) Better watch out. You'll end up like Mike TV...the oompa loompas will have to save you.
Sarah S. Thursday, July 17, 20084) Awesome dude! You have one-upped me. Only my voice has been to space.
Dave Heinzel Thursday, July 17, 20085) I thought the exact same thought Mrs Shoo....then I scrolled down and you'd taken the thought right out of my head.
LimeyGeorge Thursday, July 17, 20086) I had the same thought as Mrs. Shoe and that Limey guy. Have you checked to be sure you are the same size as when you started?
girlcarew Friday, July 18, 20087) Great minds think alike.
