COMMENTS:

Worked in the launch rooms as prime for both the Challenger and Columbia disasters for launch and landing that didn’t happen.  Left the launch rooms after Columbia, went into platform development engineering to support special requests for PCGOAL 2 – Real Time Set Engine, PCGOAL Bridge Filter and a linux cluster for the RPS Telemetry system.    When shuttle landed for the final time.. I worked with the transition team until final closeout of the last shuttle which no longer required computer room support.  In this position, all patching for the windows and the Unix/Linux platforms and any upgrades, including the replacement of the Windows ruggedized servers and configuring software to support motion data detection and recording of the 350 ton cranes in the VAB.
