 so this lens is like 15 years old and it's in good shape but oh what a difference 15 years makes it's still plastic this is still a really cheap lens but i suspect this is going to take an awesome photo and i cannot wait to go try this out tonight preliminary design review for a new space telescope it's cold it hasn't gotten above freezing in a couple days so today and tomorrow i'm just on a video conference all day long doing a review of a cube sat which is really cool i'm not an engineer i don't know a ton about cube sats but i know a lot about the science that is being proposed to be done with this with this particular cube sat so it's really exciting to me that somebody's trying to build this uh and that i get to be a small part of making sure that it works so for the next couple of days i'm just sitting basically on a video chat window talking with people talking to people in arizona where they were complaining that it's a little cold which i find like a little ironic this is such an idyllic photogenic place yesterday when i was out here i ran into a guy who was a freelance cinematographer does like lots of mountain biking and northwest action stuff we've got the ferry boat the water scuba divers trains go by birds there's nothing better than this awesome new lens love it love it it's supposed to snow some more like a bunch more today on the sunroof i don't want to get water on my camera
