Off-Nominal - Meet us at IAC 2019!

Episode Date: October 8, 2019

Jake predictably apologizes for Canadian Thanksgiving, and we’ve got some IAC business to discuss.Upcoming meetup! Hang out with Jake, Anthony, and other fellow Anomalies in Washington, DC on October 20! Details at events.offnominal.space.Listen to Jake and Anthony on WeMartians and Main Engine Cut Off.

TLS and go for main engine, start. Just kidding, this is not a full episode. This is our very short plug, Jake. Very short. Very short plug. We didn't really plan out exactly what we're going to say here. Clock's ticking. Get talking.

We just did a little crossover shindig between main engine cutoff and we Martians. Last off nominal, we did have a plug segment where we plugged both our shows, so we hope that you started listening since then. I hope so, too. I'm throwing it to you on this. I mean, probably. 95% of you did. But that last five.

So thank you. That last five percent, though, you need to head over there now. So, and I think we even said, don't worry, there's another off-nominal

coming before IAC, and so we'll talk more about there. But Canadian Thanksgiving is happening. I'm a very poor scheduler this month. So this is all my fault listeners, but we're not going to get a full episode. It's not really all your fault.

I was trying to take a bullet for it, man. That's okay. You're not going to get a full off-nomal episode this month, but we have a lot of great content coming up, And so to tide you over, two great episodes. We just finished conversations about Starship, one in the Wee Martians feed. You should start there and then head over to Miko, finish it off there. We talk all sorts of stuff about it.

It was super fun. And that should tide you over. But we wanted to come in and still have an opportunity to remind you about our meetups for the International Astronautical Congress happening in Washington, D.C. The week of the 21st to the 25th. The meetup is the Sunday before. So that's Sunday, October 20. We're going to start in the morning, 10 a.m. Udvar Hazy, Air and Space Museum. What's the full official title?

The Aaron Space Museum out by Dulles Airport. That's the official title, trademark. Just Google, where is space shuttle discovery, and then go there, go to there, and you'll find it. So we're going to start there. Parking is free. Parking is free. Entrance is also free. Is it? Actually, wait. I forget. I mean, entrance is free for sure. If it's not free, we're not paying for it. No, it's a Smithsonian. Oh, I don't know what that means. that a thing? It's, it's, it's, you'll, you'll learn. Okay. So we're going to spend the day there to see spatial discovery, see some SR 71 stuff. And then, uh, that night, DACA beard garden, 7 p.m.

in the city, it's close to the convention center. Take a look at the show note link. It's going to be a very short show note. Mm-hmm. There's going to be one link to three links. Three links. Three links. Three links. Meiko. We Martians. Events.offnominal. That space. Events. Offnominal.com. Space. Which is a different website. then off-enomenal that space. Fun fact. Both worth visiting. Four links.

Both worth. We would love to see everybody there at the meetup. We know that there's a high density of listeners in that area just because there's a high density of people and also at the conference bringing a lot of you out there. We know you're listening. We want to hang out. I've heard a lot of reports of people that are going to be at this meetup. It is going to be the night before the conference.

So make sure you're there. And, you know, no full off-nominable this month. but imagine the stories that we're going to have for the one after IAC. It's going to be a wonderful episode. Oh, it's going to be a long one. Yeah. Yeah, the last time we did that, we did one after Falcon Heavy, right? That was the stories of Falcon Heavy week.

This is going to be a great show. We'll probably have a guest on from there that we wrangle into it. Hopefully. And there's going to be stuff going on during the week. So keep your eyes peeled for anything coming out during the week. Yeah. So we hope to see you there. Sorry, there's no episode.

We hope you forgive us. but should be some good stuff coming soon.
