Field trip option!

Graham has permission from his boss to hold his talk at Radiation Monitoring Devices Inc, which is in Watertown. He said he would be able to show us the hardware they have developed and be able to use the conference room for the talk, which would allow him to show slides.

If you are planning to attend, let us hear your thoughts on making this a field trip.
Graham says we can let him know Tuesday night at the Hatch.

I've been a CMASS member since 2013, but have not attended a club meeting (outside launches) in years...since the days we used to meet in Bill Spadafora's workshop.

Have been meaning to check out a CMASS meeting again now that we're meeting in Watertown at the Hatch Makerspace. This talk has caught my interest and will finally get me to come out to a meeting again. Count me in as an attendee tonite, and also for the field trip to see actual hardware afterward.

Thanks for organizing this!

The technology that is going on in our back yards is totally amazing. You all asked some awesome questions. My older son is a computer science professional. Too bad he didn't attend. My concern is that the Chinese will steal the technology that is involved with the project.
