I work at the German Aerospace Center :)

Actually, the US gave them away for free :D
But the shipping costs are sooo expensive, that, to be fair, i have to say, this one is only a replica :(

But it still looks awesome :D

What exactly do you do there?

Well i am an aerospace engineer, specialized on propulsion systems...

Where i work, we make experiemental and scientific studies on the new Ariane 5 upper stage tank system...

Goin into detail would be... too confusing... It's like when i listen to Dust and try to understandm what the BLEEP he's talking about :D

Nah, I'll understand. It's not rocket science.
O wait, it is!

Have you mailed this picture to Shania Twain saying: It might 'just' be rocket science, but this is damn impressive, isn't it?

Any job openings for programmers where you work?

It depends...

Well, my company is spread all over germany and working on a lot of topics like space-, aircraft-, energy- and traffic technology with over 6000 employees...

I would have to check all institutes so far, if someone needs a programmer :D

Well, for robotics there should be a good chance. Could ask the company next to us, they build robots :D

Your life sounds very enthusiastic with all that awesome stuff going on.
I'd love to hear more about your daily activities!
I'm really stuck at my boring and crappy web devving job, I'd love to switch to rockets! Although Germany isn't very close by to drive to every day..

Well it is not that interesting as it sounds like :D

A lot of time, i sit at my desk, writing reports or look for stuff we need to finish our experiments :D

Well i waste more time on writing and presentations than on making experiments :D

But i can post some pictures laters in the internal... Some things i dont know if i am allowed to show them to you :D
